Chapter 897: Chapter 849: Shenye Challenges the Gambling God
Goblin Neutral City, Gambling City Las Vistas.
A little over a week ago, during the bustling international preliminaries, the dual-race vampire player Moon God Night received a mission from Duke Makar to destroy the dwarf Second Prince’s giant ship, Fla Lord, on Fire Dragon Island. However, Fire Dragon Island is icebound for ten months, and there are no teleportation arrays, making it normally inaccessible.
So, Moon God Night thought of the goblin clan’s high-tech, hot air balloons! By tying a hot air balloon to a dium-sized ship, a flying ship capable of crossing the ice would be born. And then there’s another goblin high-tech, mine bombs; with bombs, blowing up the interior of the Fla Lord is not an issue.
The only problem is that to acquire these two high-techs from the goblin clan requires extrely high goblin reputation and various trust levels. (See Chapter 309 "Moon God Night’s Fire Dragon Island Operation")
So for many days, Moon God Night has been working as an apprentice in Las Vistas, doing tasks, accumulating reputation, then gambling a bit in the casino to earn so research funds. According to her schedule, ten days in real ti to secure reputation, two days to reach Fire Dragon Island, and at most two days to complete tasks to gain the dwarf’s trust, then the task is done! Total ti, half a month.
However, in these last two days, Moon God Night feels that every ti she wakes from a nap, the progress of the ga world seems to advance by an era or two!
Yesterday, players already entered the Divine Punishnt City of Hell, and today, Da Fei’s giant ship reappears at sea! Da Fei, it’s always Da Fei!
Since Da Fei last went to sea and killed a demigod, Moon God Night began to pay attention to this Da Fei. Then during the competition, she also specifically observed Da Fei’s techniques. Overall, the awareness is normal, and the technique is very average. For him to continue achieving victory after victory besides the snowball effect, it can only be attributed to exceptionally good luck?
Now, where is this Da Fei going? Going to Fire Dragon Island again for cargo? How will he break through the ice-sealing period? Giant ship breaking the ice and clearing a path? Impossible!
Just as she was shocked, the player forum was shaken again, and the Red Na Village, known as a small national war zone, once again showed Da Fei’s footprints, and the Angel Hero abducted by Da Fei appeared! A large number of foreign players flooded into Red Na Village.
Da Fei! It’s still Da Fei! His shadow is everywhere?
As a forr dostic ga developnt technician, soone who indirectly participated in the developnt of the hero core during her ti at Massachusetts University, Moon God Night’s realm of ga playing has always been seeing the mountain but it’s not a mountain, seeing water but it’s not water, but a bunch of behind-the-scenes data.
From a professional technician’s perspective, Moon God Night can already conclude for the Red Na Village phenonon: no significant actions will occur. Since Red Na Village is a branch server of the national war server, without the official opening of the national war server, Red Na Village will not receive a large amount of system resource support, preventing the possibility of triggering large-scale mission events.
But the appearance of this Angel signifies that Da Fei has already started setting up in advance?
At this mont, Moon God Night could no longer stay calm!
She considered herself from a god’s perspective, above the players, even professional players. The plan she set to resolve goblin reputation in ten days has already surpassed the player technical level. But now it seems that the tis are advancing too fast, and she simply cannot keep up with the pace.
What to do now? Continue working, doing tasks, persisting for the remaining three days to accumulate enough reputation? By then, perhaps Da Fei would have already reached Fire Dragon Island. It seems that she can only take an unconventional path now.
And in a place like Gambling City, if one wants to take an unconventional path, there’s only one shortcut, gamble to fa! Or say, this is actually the real ordinary path of a gambling city.
And to gamble to fa, she must defeat the recently popular Dwarf Gambling God Buffett in the casino. Moon God Night has gambled small bets with this Buffett many tis, never winning once.
The characteristic of this Gambling King is that the points his dice show are usually not high, never giving people a sense of an unattainable unbeatable pressure, even making people feel like they are bound to win. But the result is that his opponents’ roll is even lower than his! Thus, the loser is not convinced, repeatedly fighting until losing everything.
In short, this Gambling God is just like cheating! If, for other gambling NPCs, players have a 20% win rate, then for the Gambling King, it’s 0. So, would a ga specially adjust an NPC’s win rate to make him unbeatable?
If it’s an ordinary ga, of course, there’s no issue. It’s developed to set who is invincible; all is at the GM’s discretion.
But a super-intelligent system like "Heroic Creation Era" is completely different, as all the data paraters of every NPC and material form a complete "Natural Balance Law." Any change in a material parater would lead to "world collapse." This is also why once the ga runs officially, no developer GM can manually interfere with the ga.
Moon God Night has already confird that the ga developers can’t risk system collapse just to give an absurd "Gambling God" a cheat. After all, even the Main God in the ga doesn’t have such treatnt, let alone a re gambling "God."
Thus, the reason for the Gambling God’s invincibility generally rules out system cheat possibilities. Although Moon God Night had seen through this point long ago, since the Gambling God was not soone she had to take the risk to lose money to challenge, she’d never specifically strategized against him. But now it’s different; she has to take the shortcut and must take down the Gambling God.
Moon God Night began implenting a plan she was unsure of. If even this thod doesn’t work, she’ll have to be content with honest labor.
Moon God Night once again went to the casino and found a scar-faced kobold in a suit drinking gloomily at a dark corner of the bar. He’s a special gambler NPC, nicknad Evil Gambler. His way of gambling isn’t dice, cards, or roulette, but to let others bet on how many fingers he has on his left hand?
If you bet he has 5, he’d imdiately chop one off, terrifying! Of course, the chopped finger would heal once reattached, and its healing capacity is equally terrifying. It’s not just fingers; you can bet on his eyeball too.
He’s an NPC not restricted to card tables, with extrely high freedom. A gambler who relies on his own strength to control wins and losses, not at all on luck. And this highly free NPC is the key to breaking the stalemate for Moon God Night. Now Moon God Night’s reputation in Tesvitas is quite high, fully qualifying her to converse freely with him.
The kobold quietly said, "What to bet on?"
Moon God Night smiled and said, "Bet on whether I can beat the Gambling God Buffett tonight. If you lose, you’ll follow
as my dog! I appreciate your abilities!"
The kobold laughed, sprayed all his drink out: "Human? Always think they’re clever. If it were , I wouldn’t bet any trinket with him. Agreed! But if you lose, you’ll have to pay
ten million!"
Moon God Night laughed, "Very well, then I have a little ga. Do you dare to bet on it?"
The kobold sneered, "As long as it’s not dice or cards, there’s nothing I don’t dare to bet on."
Moon God Night smiled, "Buffett and I will gamble many rounds; at the start, I’ll definitely lose to him. So, let’s bet on the margin of each ga between
and him. If he beats my points by more than 5, you win. If below 5, I win, with ten thousand gold coins per round, basically betting on high or low; dare to bet?"
The kobold laughed heartily, "Anyway, you’re eventually going to lose ten million to , so I’ll play your little ga!"
Moon God Night smiled, "Alright, then let’s go upstairs to challenge Buffett. You just need to leisurely sit at the table next to us, smoking, drinking, and recording the points of win and loss each round."
"No problem!"
This was Moon God Night’s strategy to challenge the Gambling God. Since the Gambling God doesn’t win invincibly because of cheats, he must possess similar God-level skills like a Destiny Technique. If it were a one-on-one confrontation, Moon God Night would, of course, be crushed by his Fate Technique with no chance at all. But if Moon God Night conducted two gambles simultaneously, then it’s uncertain.
An old gambler’s joke goes like this:
A gambler bets his companion: "I bet 100 bucks I can make that man take off his pants on the spot." "Bet!" Then this gambler runs to that man: "I bet 50 bucks you have a scar on your thigh!" Then that man takes off his pants, winning 50 bucks from the gambler, but the gambler wins 100 bucks from his companion, still earning 50 bucks.
Another trendy joke goes like this:
A man says to a beautiful lady, "Got a date? I guarantee high energy for the entire two hours, lose the bet and I’ll pay you 500 bucks." Ten minutes later, the man surrenders, the lady furious: "What about the two-hour promise?" The man, infinitely satisfied, pulls out 500 bucks: "I lost!"
Simply put, this is Moon God Night’s thinking to simultaneously conduct two gambles: the failure of one match equates to the victory of another. If operated properly, it ans she not only avoids losing but continues winning.
To win while losing defies the Fate Technique, which is Moon God Night’s key to breaking the situation.
Of course, there’s also a crucial detail: Gambling God Buffett usually edges out his opponents with tiny point advantages, seldom winning by more than 5. Hence, using this as a wager ans she’s basically guaranteed to win against the kobold.
Even if the kobold realizes this is a bad idea, he already believes he’ll win 10 million in the first bet, so he accepts equally calmly. In this way, the kobold also has a similar strategy of simultaneously conducting two gambles, losing less to preserve more. His intelligence is indeed quite high, which is another reason Moon God Night appreciates him.
Now, with everything prepared, Moon God Night with a total fortune of 30 million gold coins officially challenges the Gambling God of Las Vistas! If she loses, Moon God Night will lose both gambles, possibly losing everything. Then Makar’s task will be significantly delayed. If she wins, Moon God Night will beco the new Gambling God! Her reputation among the goblins will skyrocket overnight! Various high-techs will no longer be a dream!
