Many Gambling Chips
“Lucky one, do you want more gifts from destiny?”
After the angel shattered a chain of destiny that bound Gurney, a new ntal suggestion appeared in his mind.
Gurney’s hand started to tremble. If Gurney did not try his best to resist it, this hand might have tossed the Destiny Gold Coin once again.
“This thing… is toxic!”
Gurney’s eyelids twitched. Feeling that he could barely control the right hand from tossing the Destiny Gold Coin, Gurney quickly placed it back into the system space.
The ntal suggestion lifted slowly afterwards.
“Huff…”
Rubbing his temples and shaking his head, Gurney tried to remove the ntal suggestions of the Destiny Gold Coin from his mind.
With this Destiny Gold Coin’s level of suggestion, as long as it is held in the hand, when one’s will falls to a certain extent, they would lose control. It is possible to win once or twice, or even five or six tis, but with just one failed toss, everything would be lost.
But the temptation of breaking the chains of destiny is too great. Even with just one life, I would still want to try and cut away more chains of destiny. After all, if sufficient chains of destiny are cut, then even those experts would not be able to see through in close proximity. The probing, inspection, and search of those existences would also be blocked. Thankfully…
Gurney’s lips curled up into a smile.
My [Reincarnation]… gives sufficient gambling chips. Others will lose everything with just one loss, but , if I lose once, hmm… in a sense, I will get even stronger.
Rubbing his face, Gurney lifted his spirits.
Currently, I have six [Reincarnation] chances. According to this system’s disposition, it will restore one chance every month, so I do not need to be worried about the number going down. Three losses… If I lose three tis, I will stop this gamble.
After thinking, Gurney took out the Destiny Gold Coin again.
“Lucky one, do you want more gifts from destiny? Then toss it. Test your luck and see how it goes?” The intense ntal suggestion appeared in Gurney’s mind again.
“This is not a gift. This is the result of gambling with my life,” Gurney gritted his teeth and said.
Next, Gurney tossed the gold coin.
The mont it went into the air, Gurney could feel that his right arm, palm, and fingers were beyond his control.
Ring!
The Destiny Gold Coin spun in the air as the angel and devil mixed together.
An uncontrollable action.
It seems that trying to train one’s proficiency in tossing coins will be useless against the Destiny Gold Coin.
Pat!
The Destiny Gold Coin landed in Gurney’s right palm again.
Slowly revealing his palm…
“It seems that my luck is not bad today.” Gurney smiled.
The result was still the angel side.
Next, light gathered as the angel slashed with the Sword of Destiny, aiming at the chain of destiny on Gurney’s body.
Crack! Crack! Crack!
After three sounds, the angel vanished. In return, three of the four destiny chains on Gurney’s body that had the thickness of an arm were cut apart.
Without hesitation, Gurney tossed the Destiny Gold Coin again.
The third toss.
Gurney was not as lucky this ti.
The devil side was up.
On the Destiny Gold Coin, black light started to gather, and a devil that was covered in flas appeared before Gurney. This devil opened its abyss-like mouth, devouring Gurney’s soul and body.
anwhile, in the real world, the material effect was that within the secret room, Gurney’s body turned into black ash and scattered on its own.
It was as if
Thanos
had snapped his finger against Gurney.
Viewing his own death from a third party angle, Gurney looked down 45 degrees at the place where he died.
There was nothing there. His flesh body and clothes were all gone.
Looking at the [Reincarnation] tab, he was still in a state where revival was possible.
As expected, the system’s strength is unfathomable.
Without much hesitation, Gurney clicked on [Reincarnation].
The ashes gathered like ti was flowing backwards, and energy condensed together as flesh and blood started to appear.
After a few breaths of ti, Gurney appeared at the place where he had died completely.
But different from before, the current Gurney was stark naked. His clothes were not restored along with Gurney’s revival.
Thankfully, I was prepared for this. All of my valuables were placed in the system space. But I still wasted a set of clothing.
It seems that to play with the Destiny Gold Coin, I need to use the most primal thod that is closest to nature.
I can afford to revive two more tis.
Gurney continued his ga with the Destiny Gold Coin with no hesitation.
...
Two minutes later.
After reviving, Gurney quickly placed the Destiny Gold Coin into the prepared black thorn wooden box before sending it to a corner of his system space, ending the ga with the Destiny Gold Coin this ti.
Next, Gurney opened his secret room door.
A mont later, Gurney returned to the surface. By now, Gurney was already wearing a thick set of clothing; he was also covered in a blanket.
“Huff…”
After breathing in deeply, Gurney rubbed his hands together.
The weather is too cold. It is going to be winter soon. Next ti, if I want to play with the Destiny Gold Coin again, I will need to find a warm spot,
Gurney thought to himself.
But to speak of it, my gains were huge this ti!
Three deaths.
Gurney managed to get five chances for the angel to cut his destiny chains.
After these five attacks at his destiny chains, on Gurney’s body, the bowl-thick chain, the four arm-thick chains, as well as over thirty finger-thick chains were all cut apart.
The remaining ones were tiny chains that were as thin as hair. Gurney estimated that in two or three more attempts, all these remaining tiny destiny chains would be cut away for good. By then, he would truly have broken free from the restraints of destiny.
Also, after three revivals, Gurney had understood so traits of this reincarnation function. For example, when he was sufficiently weak, the reincarnation’s impact on the reduction of “quantity” would be small, while the elevation of “quality” was practically none as well.
Or simply put, if he was weak, reincarnation would have no effect besides revival.
After three reincarnations, Gurney returned to the state he was in a week ago after his first use of [Reincarnation]. Even if he reincarnated again, there would be no room for further weakening.
Even though my strength fell, with all these destiny chains cut away, I will be hard to discover or plot against.
In the following period of ti, I will use passive farming to raise my strength. I will try to beco a tier-one Bloodcaster as soon as possible.
“At the sa ti…”
Gurney rubbed his fingers together.
Maybe I can talk to Father Cohen. I need to get more powerful spells now.
Fire Arrow and Arc Lightning are both ordinary spells. They are for frontal attacks and lack the elent of surprise or mystery.
And I can pretty much forget about Ring Explosion.
If I get so peculiar thods to complent my Bloodcaster abilities, I will be able to display exceptional battle strength.
Thanos – yes, that ultimate supervillain in several Avengers movies.
