Ji Xun nodded, his eyes sparkling like a torch, and his tone was firm and calm: "Bet on whether my reasoning is correct."
"..."
Hearing this, the girl really couldn't understand what her teammate was thinking.
This guy's tone was so calm that no one could hear any fear or anxiety.
Instead, I heard a kind of... eagerness to gamble on life?
He actively wants to gamble with the monster?
This guy is not afraid of death!
At this moment, only one word came to her mind: crazy.
...
Probably because of the fluorescent powder, or Ji Xun's crow's beak.
Not long after the two stopped, a sudden stench hit them, and a dog-headed monster teleported before their eyes.
Face to face, the terrifying oppressive feeling of an A-level disaster is as real as it is, making people's scalp numb. Moreover, the cursed monsters give people an infinite and mysterious terror, as if they are facing an abyss.
However, the monster chose not Ji Xun, but stood in front of the girl with the mechanical arm.
The girl's expression suddenly changed, her expression darkened, and she cursed secretly: "What bad luck."
With so many people looking for her, we can only lament that she is out of luck.
But even at this time, she was not in despair.
The mercenary was helpless in the face of this disaster, but that didn't mean she couldn't.
The girl has an ancient relic on her body that can be forcibly transported out of the dungeon. Once used, she can leave immediately.
The only drawback is that after using that treasure, everything you get in the space cannot be taken out.
Including the elusive [Witch's Pituitary Gland] obtained before.
I missed it this time, and I don’t know if I can find such suitable career materials again.
She didn't want to give up unless she had to.
But now looking at the ferocious and hateful face of the dog-headed monster in front of him, he was already in a desperate situation.
There is no choice.
The girl with the mechanical arm felt sad in her heart, what a pity.
At the same time, I also felt apologetic. As soon as she left, my teammates would definitely die. She clearly promised to do her best to protect her.
But this is also a situation that she cannot change.
Why...
Sighed slightly.
However, before she could think about using that special relic to forcefully leave the instance, something unexpected happened.
She never expected that at this moment, a provocative question suddenly came to her ears: "Do you dare to make a bet with me?"
The girl's eyes widened and she looked at Ji Xun who was talking next to her with disbelief.
For a moment, my thoughts seemed to freeze.
After being stunned for a moment, she realized what Ji Xun had done.
This guy...
Is he provoking a monster?
He is provoking monsters!!!
As expected, the monster could bear this mockery?
For gamblers, there is no such thing as gambling.
It immediately gave up its current target and turned to look at Ji Xun, with a sarcastic smile on its head: "Which card is the ace of spades on?"
...
This incredible scene unfolded, and the girl with the mechanical arm was completely confused.
Her eyes were full of confusion, this guy actually saved her?
But why would he do this?
It's a cooperative relationship, of course, but it's not...
At this moment, the girl finally understood what he meant when he said "we" just now.
This guy had said before, "If we are chosen", let her escape first.
In other words, no matter who the monster comes for, he has already made preparations to face the monster?
But this...
No one can survive [Gamble on Dogs]. Why would he do this?
The girl with the mechanical arm really couldn't figure it out. She looked at Ji Xun and suddenly had some subtle complexities about this temporary teammate.
...
Holy Mother Ji Xun is possessed, sacrificing herself for others?
No!
Instead, his absolute rationality allowed him to analyze the current situation clearly.
This bodyguard teammate is dead, Ji Xun can be 100% sure that he will not survive next.
The probability of survival for those well-equipped mercenaries is extremely low, let alone yourself?
Any little monster can bring him a fatal crisis.
So escaping now has no meaning other than surviving for a while.
If you can't kill this dog-headed monster, you will definitely die in the end.
What's more, there is another more important factor.
He needs to verify a conjecture.
Now he has enough information, and little clues are forming a curtain in his mind.
He has understood some of the "game rules" of this extradimensional space.
This was the reason for him to speak.
The 30% exploration level of the dungeon had just begun. Only by verifying those conjectures, he felt that he would have a real chance of completing the dungeon alive.
It is undeniable that this verification process does involve gambling.
But for Ji Xun, if he is still indecisive about his firm judgment, such a life of firewood will be so boring.
Furthermore,
There is an eager idea in my heart that I can no longer hold back.
He really wanted to take a gamble.
Tsk tsk.
What to bet on?
Are there any thrills from gambling?
.......
"I choose..."
Ji Xun had a calm expression on his face and deliberately delayed for some time.
Looking at the struggling girl next to him, he also guessed that his teammate was probably going through some complex psychological activities.
But staying here right now is not a good option.
He raised his eyebrows and gave a look that meant he could run away.
When the girl with the mechanical arm saw this, her expression was tangled for a moment, as if she felt it was unethical to leave him and run away after someone else saved her.
But looking at Ji Xun's urging gaze, she glanced sideways and knew that there was no point in staying for a long time, so she said: "Take care!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the whole person quickly evacuated towards the depths of the corridor, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
With his teammates gone, the last factor that might have caused the accident is gone.
Ji Xun had no worries at this moment.
At this moment, it was as if the beast within was awakened, and a scalp-tingling excitement surged into my heart.
He looked at the monster in front of him without any fear, but instead raised a provocative arc at the corner of his mouth.
Like a clown walking on a tightrope, even if he loses his footing and falls, he still has a weird smile on his face.
The monster also looked at him with ridicule on his face.
"I choose this one."
Ji Xun put one hand in his trouser pocket and made his choice.
He randomly selected a card and opened it directly.
A magical scene appeared.
The image of "Ace of Spades" appeared on the turned card.
The gambling dog opposite looked at this scene, with a sarcastic smile still on his face, but his expression had stiffened, as if he could speak: How is that possible!
For a moment, Gambling Dog seemed to understand something.
I seemed to have lost my memory for a second just now: I was mentally disturbed!
But rules are rules.
The established rules of curses have never changed.
At this moment, this [Spell Gambler] is like all gamblers, trying to grab the last straw to survive.
But the backlash of the curse has come like an overwhelming force.
Ji Xun narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at the dog-headed monster in front of him, and smiled brightly: "Looks like I'm lucky, I guessed it right."
The dog-headed monster didn't have time to say anything, and the life in its eyes quickly dissipated.
This bet is about your life.
The monster lost the bet, and the curse backfired and killed him instantly.
Ji Xun looked at the corpse of Calamity that collapsed in front of him and let out a sigh of relief.
At this moment, the morbid pleasure brought by the stimulation made him feel as if his soul had been sublimated.
...
Although Ji Xun is good at poker, he is not arrogant enough to compete with an A-level disaster.
Just like monsters that come out of nowhere, he also used some dishonorable means.
The hand in his pocket is holding the [Witch's Gaze] skill card that he got from hunting the fallen witch before.
After being released, it can cause mental hypnosis to targets within the range.
The [Spell Gambler] on the third floor is much more threatening than the [Fallen Witch] on the second floor.
But in terms of mental strength, there is a high probability that the latter is stronger.
If you do not save against this spell, it will cause forced hypnosis for at least 1 second.
When he was drawing cards just now, Ji Xun used this hypnosis and opened the card directly without giving the dog-headed monster a chance to come out.
Luckily, I selected it directly.
Even if it is not selected, time allows him to open another one.
Sure enough he won.
It also confirmed my suspicion.
...
As soon as Calamity died, a green light slowly condensed on the monster's corpse.
Ji Xun looked at the card floating in the light group, confirmed the guess again, and murmured: "Sure enough..."
【The Gambler's Severed Hand】
Quality:Silver
Detailed explanation: A one-time mysterious spell skill card; after releasing it, it will release a curse spell on a second-level or lower single target whose spiritual power is not higher than 100% of itself, with a 50% chance of triggering instant death; if the curse fails, it will backfire, and it will suffer the same damage after release;
The monster exploded another skill card, which was the weird Curse Life Gambling Technique.
Forced 50% mortality rate, very strong!
It’s also very confusing!
Ji Xun carefully read the effects of the card, and a flash of wisdom flashed in his eyes.
At this moment, he finally determined something.
This is indeed a gamble.
But the bet is not actually about luck or skill, but the understanding of the rules of space.
Since the boss cannot be killed by force, it can only be killed by rules.
This is what Ji Xun wants to verify.
On a deeper level, he understood the thinking of the designer of this extradimensional space.
...
A-level disaster [Gambling Dog] died, the curse in the monster's body lost control, Ji Xun stood next to the body, and Qi Di appeared again.
"The power of the spell is out of control, eroded by pollution, and the constitution is -0.02."
There is still a glowing substance on the chest of the corpse, which may be another extraordinary material.
But Ji Xun doesn't have that magical space containment card.
Even if you cut out the material, it's still very hot.
However, at this moment, at the corner of the corridor not far away, a figure slowly walked out.
It was his teammates who looked astonished.
Monsters can teleport to find people, so there is little point in escaping.
The girl with the mechanical arm was hiding in a vent not far away. This was the limit of her perception of distance.
I originally wanted to wait until the aura of my temporary teammate disappeared before escaping.
But I didn't expect to wait for a moment, before my teammates died, but I felt that the breath of disaster suddenly disappeared?!
Although I can't believe it, it is the fact before my eyes.
Ji Xun saw her returning as promised and smiled softly. His teammate was still loyal.
The girl with the mechanical arm looked at him and then at the corpse on the ground, her expression changing several times.
A guy who was probably dozens of times weaker than him actually killed that curse-type A-level disaster all by himself?
