Long Live Money in Anime Crossover
Page 183
Such a future is far from being seen in Mo Mo's field of vision, and it is also beyond the comprehension of the group of immature teenagers in front of Mo Mo.
Therefore, what they are facing now is the premature temptation of money, which will wake them up from their childlike state and make them understand the real rules of how this world works.
However, people are ultimately different. Some people have a stronger will, are more able to withstand shocks, and can still think rationally after the shocks.
For example, the King of Blue.
"MiddleMagic, isn't this a scam? There are too many questions. Where do you get so much money in real life? How can you guarantee that what you say will come true? If you really lied and deceived everyone, what can others do to you?"
"MiddleMagic, while your strategy may be effective, no one will believe such a low-level deception!"
The Blue King didn't believe Momo's invitation was genuine, nor did he dare to. Otherwise, the Blue King knew very well that the so-called majesty of a king would be utterly powerless against the fierce onslaught of the number 1 and the eight zeros that followed.
One hundred million yen is beyond the imagination of many people. Let alone these children, who could disobey the king's orders and the king couldn't do anything to them, even the vast majority of Japanese public officials, under such temptation, it's uncertain whether they could still maintain their principles.
The Blue King needs to stand up and question, and must question, and Momo's words must be false, otherwise, Momo's actions will definitely bring a huge disaster to the entire Accelerated World!
However, faced with the Blue King's doubts, Mo Mo smiled slightly and said, "You're right, Blue King. Indeed, based solely on me, a mere LV1 imaginary entity, there is absolutely no credibility. Even with the Black King added, you would still likely have doubts."
"However, please pay attention to what program I used to send this invitation."
Upon hearing this, everyone subconsciously looked towards the top left corner. They had all been so focused on that string of zeros that they hadn't realized what kind of program was operating.
However, many speeders gasped in surprise upon seeing it.
"This is……"
It was an oval ring with a circular disc in the center, and the entire design was bright red. Just by looking at the shape, you could immediately tell that the image was modeled after the Japanese flag.
This symbol also represents an almost unquestionable authority.
Tokyo UFJ Bank was formed more than 30 years ago by the merger of Japan's three largest banks, and at the time it became the world's largest bank. Although it has now fallen to second place and been surpassed by the bank of the neighboring superpower, Tokyo UFJ Bank's authority still commands respect from all Japanese people and even people around the world.
The online payment system that Momo is using is developed by Tokyo UFJ Bank. This is not a simple online payment system; it contains a variety of payment modes, and the one Momo is currently using is a tiered reward payment mode.
Essentially, this payment model was developed for certain gambling competitions, such as sports betting, where everyone starts at the bottom of a ladder and then places bets.
As the competition progresses, people will be eliminated one after another, while those who guess the score correctly will advance to the next round. The money bet by the eliminated people will continue to accumulate until finally, all the money is gathered into the hands of a winner or a few people in the last round.
Of course, while this payment method exists, Tokyo UFJ would never admit that it was developed for gambling; it's just that everyone knows the truth.
Momo used this system, but unlike usual, he transferred funds directly at the top of the ladder. When everyone checked the program, they were shocked to find that in just a moment, Momo had transferred in one billion US dollars, totaling more than one hundred billion yen in bonuses.
The prize distribution was also very clear: everyone's name was marked at the bottom of the ladder, and participants received 100 million yen upfront. Each kill counted as a promotion, adding another 100 million yen to the prize pool. There was also a special note that killing a specific individual would earn an additional 100 million US dollars, bringing the total prize to over 11 billion yen.
The rules were clear and straightforward, making it hard to believe that Mo Mo had completed them in a single instant. However, regardless of the circumstances, the reward system Mo Mo was talking about... seemed to be real!
It turned out to be true!
Everyone who participates actually receives 100 million yen directly, regardless of their performance.
Many people were already swallowing hard; the temptation of 100 million yen was tearing their reason apart.
Blue King's heart pounded. In reality, his family's financial situation was only average, so he knew all too well what 100 million yen could bring to himself and his family. However, the catastrophic premonition in his heart grew stronger. He desperately tried to think of any reason that could stop Momo and the Accelerators who were now on the verge of going out of control.
correct!
Blue King's eyes widened. He quickly voiced the reason he had just thought of, saying, "MiddleMagic, perhaps you really are rich in real life, and you have indeed put up a billion dollars, but the problem is, all the battle records need to be confirmed and recorded by someone, and then the distribution of everyone's bonuses also needs to be carried out by someone, right?"
"We are all accelerators. Do you expect us to input our real-life identities to receive bonuses? Even if you do prepare such an invitation, who will collect the data, and who will guarantee the distribution of rewards!"
The Blue King's voice was already a little off-key, but his words still startled everyone, as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over their heads.
Yes, MiddleMagic did put up that much money, but when it comes to the final settlement, it's up to MiddleMagic to determine who participated and what their achievements were. If MiddleMagic decides to cheat, there's nothing they can do.
After all, MiddleMagic is the bookmaker, and all decision-making power rests with MiddleMagic. If MiddleMagic doesn't pay out the winnings, they can only call MiddleMagic a fraudster, and there's nothing else they can do.
Seeing that his words had an effect, the Blue King breathed a slight sigh of relief; at least the situation had stabilized for now.
Accel World is a game, a pure paradise for its Accelerators. Such a place should be managed and controlled by them in their own way. Intrusion from the real world is absolutely not allowed!
However, at this moment, MiddleMagic's words plunged him into the abyss of despair once again.
“What everyone said is true. Indeed, since I'm also participating, I shouldn't be acting as a bookmaker. In that case, why don't we just find a witness?”
"A neutral witness."
88 I will personally defend my own justice!
A neutral witness?
Momo's words immediately drew everyone's attention to the Green King, who was standing silently in the corner.
Speaking of neutral witnesses, isn't this the Green King who just announced that he would guarantee neutrality?
The performance of the Green King just now was unexpected, but upon closer reflection, this is actually the Green King's style.
The Green King has always been revered by all Accelerators, simply because he is like an observer in a higher position, never seeking anything, and silently dedicating himself to the Accelerator world.
In fact, upon closer examination, the Green King has always had this silent and almost indifferent personality. If he weren't like this, he wouldn't be treated as a hero by ordinary players.
Even the greatest hero, if you lived with him in everyday life, would still just be an ordinary person. The reason why the Accelerators revere the Green King so much is inseparable from his consistently low profile and mystery.
The Green King also heard Momo's words and raised his head.
He didn't care about the gazes of those around him. To be precise, as a king, he was always surrounded by such gazes. But at this moment, these gazes, tinged with greed, made the Green King sense a strange change.
A slight smile appeared on the Green King's lips; these were things he wanted to see.
"King of Green".
Seeing this, the Blue King was the first to speak, saying, "You probably wouldn't agree to such an absurd suggestion, would you? This is our Accelerated World, and we must protect it. Otherwise, the purity of our Accelerated World will be gone forever!"
The Blue King's voice turned stern, but the Green King could detect a hint of panic in it.
Panic, yes, the Blue King was starting to panic.
Faced with the overwhelming impact of reality, these kings, the Accelerators they lead, and the powerful world they have built within the Accelerated World appear utterly vulnerable.
The Blue King's performance has shown that he has no confidence in dealing with such an impact.
"You are wrong, King of Blue, you still don't understand."
The Green King cruelly rejected the Blue King from the outset, denying the Blue King's persistence and ideals.
"Nobody knows what Accel World really is, and no matter how you look at it, it can't possibly be associated with the word 'pure.' As the oldest generation, we should have been prepared for this long ago."
"The Accelerated World cannot exist independently of society and the real world. We are all Accelerators, players of the game, not natives of this world. It is unreliable to regard this world as a psychological refuge."
"This world must have its own meaning, and we are merely passersby. It is a game, and a game has a beginning and an end."
"A false peace can only last for a while, not forever. Even if there is no Black King today, there will be a Gray King or a Silver King tomorrow. It will eventually come to an end."
"Blue King, don't be like that. Maintain some of your kingly demeanor. Of course, this is just my opinion. If you think I'm wrong, you're welcome to use your power to prove me wrong, and to prove the Black King wrong as well."
After saying that, the Green King turned to MiddleMagic and said, "Your suggestion... is very interesting."
Is that interesting?
When the word "interesting" came out of the Green King's mouth, everyone's faces showed a slightly strange feeling. Perhaps in everyone's subconscious, someone like the Green King probably had nothing to do with being interesting.
It was only then that everyone realized they really had a tendency to deify the Green King and treat him as a saint.
Today, Green King has been talking a lot more, and people are finally starting to get to know him.
The Green King is just a man of few words; in reality, he's probably a quiet and steady young man. The Green King is also human, just a few years older than these Accelerators, and one of their earliest seniors.
"It's very interesting and will undoubtedly bring about huge changes to the accelerated world, so I will be very careful."
The Green King's words completely dispelled the Blue King's desire to persuade him.
The Green King never sided with anyone; he was a true observer, like an outsider. The only reason he sometimes acted alongside these kings was because they shared the same goal.
Now, the Green King has a new goal: he longs to see changes in the Accelerated World, which has been dormant for two years. And such changes are undoubtedly happening right before our eyes, brought about by MiddleMagic.
The Green King... is no longer his ally...
Since the Red King, his comrades have become fewer and fewer. Now, is he finally left to fight alone?
The Blue King felt a pang of desolation, but this only strengthened his resolve. Even if he had to use the full power of the divine artifact today, he would still defend his justice!
"Since you've proposed that I act as a neutral recorder and arbitrator, I can accept that. But you must hand over control of the entire process to me, so that I can record and judge everything. Can you accept this condition?"
Upon hearing these conditions, everyone's pupils constricted instinctively. Even Kuroyukihime stopped paying attention to the Crimson King, who might seduce her boyfriend, and turned her gaze to Mo Mo, saying, "Mo Mo... isn't this...?"
Kuroyukihime didn't finish her sentence, but it was clear that the Green King's conditions involved great risks.
The Green King actually demanded two things. First, as the controller of the entire process, the referee, and the person who distributes the prize money, he had to control the entire process and the entire... prize money!
In other words, Momo had to transfer all control of the program and the billion-dollar prize money to him; only in this way would the Green King gain full power.
That's a billion dollars! What if Green King takes the billion dollars and runs away?
Although the Green King is admired by everyone and considered a hero-like king, can a hero resist the temptation of a billion dollars, a fortune that can guarantee a worry-free life?
Moreover, the Green King's request was actually to conduct a real-world money transfer transaction with Momo. In this case, Momo's private information was essential, as the Green King, as the recipient, could see Momo's name and other information.
This is the reality of exposure!
If the Green King has malicious intentions and obtains a billion dollars, and then learns Mo Mo's identity in real life, wouldn't he be tempted to do something?
Having already faced the fate of Dai Taku, Kuroyukihime naturally didn't want to repeat the same mistake.
The Green King's request left the Accelerators speechless. Even the Green King, the Green King everyone trusted, making such a demand seemed excessive.
"If you can agree to my request, I will do the job well. As for whether I am trustworthy, that's up to your judgment, MiddleMagic."
Would MiddleMagic agree to these conditions? Probably not.
In everyone's eyes, there was no reason for Mo Mo to agree to such conditions, right? Even the world's richest man wouldn't hand over a billion dollars to someone whose name he had only heard of but whose real identity he had never even met, right?
What if this is a scam?
However, Momo's response was surprisingly straightforward.
Instead of answering, Momo directly manipulated the neural connection device, transferring control of the program and one billion dollars to Green King in the form of a real transaction.
No one explained what Mo Mo did, but everyone knew what Mo Mo was doing and was impressed by his courage.
This person...MiddleMagic's spirit is probably no less than that of any king...
No, even the strongest players are still children, but this MiddleMagic is probably no longer a child...
Kuroyukihime fell silent, a hint of annoyance in her eyes. It wasn't because Momo hadn't listened to her—after all, Momo had his own opinions—but mainly...
That's a billion dollars!
