The age of great voyages

Chapter 221 The Impossible Gambling

Entering the vortex black hole is like entering a huge blender. Lin Chen can clearly feel the powerful tearing force in the vortex, but it is amazing that it is only limited to the first-level wizards, and those below this level will be torn to pieces. Only the first-level Only official wizards above can resist this force.

The sky was spinning, the void was violently shaking and twisting, and Lin Chen knew that he had traveled through two different spaces and came to another world.

"Buzz!"

The void began to stabilize, and Lin Chen knew that the teleportation was over, his eyes lit up, and he appeared in a huge palace, standing on the crystal floor.

This palace is huge, like a giant's palace, surrounded by thick glazed jade pillars with a diameter of more than 30 meters and a height of one thousand meters, with many lifelike statues wrapped around them. If you look carefully, isn't this just looking back in the water mirror? Those underground creatures that have been sucked into the space between life and death, their faces retain a look of fear, but they are like statues, without any breath, and without any fresh traces.

There are many such crystal pillars, and he can still see familiar underground creatures on the most recent crystal pillar, and the creatures on the jade pillars become more and more strange and rare.

At the end of the crystal floor is a high-rise glazed throne, on which sits a huge light man with a vague and invisible appearance, sleeping with his forehead resting on his forehand.

As if sensing someone coming in, the naked man raised his head, and a nearly substantive gaze fell on Lin Chen, and a voice rang in his ears:

"Welcome to my country, no matter how you defeat me, you can choose an item from my treasury to leave."

Immediately afterwards, a series of messages automatically appeared in his mind, about the gambling rules of this world.

Lin Chen checked the information carefully, and suddenly heard an exclamation from afar:

"Cousin, why are you here?"

He immediately turned his head and saw a graceful figure standing in the corner of the huge palace. It was his little cousin who was both surprised and delighted. Not far from her stood figures in twos and threes, including human beings and alien races. Including the three men and one woman who besieged her.

He walked over and asked in surprise:
"Are you all right?"

She nodded:
"We entered here after being sucked into the black hole vortex that suddenly appeared. There are so many people here that they dare not do anything."

Lin Chen looked around, there were quite a few people staying in this corner, and they were all sitting on the ground thinking hard, Lin Yueru said:
"Everyone is trying to find a way to defeat the master between life and death, but no one dares to do it until they are sure."

She pointed to the reliefs on the heaven-reaching jade pillars and said:

"These bas-reliefs are all people who lost to the master between life and death. As long as they lose, they will turn into bas-reliefs and stay on the jade pillar forever. Only by defeating him, no matter how you defeat him, can you leave here."

What Lin Yueru said about defeating the master between life and death does not mean defeating him by force. Of course, you can defeat him by force, but in fact it is impossible. The best way is to defeat him in other ways, whether it is various intellectual problems, It's still a bet, or some weird way, as long as he wins, he is considered to have defeated him.

Those who can enter here alive, whether they are humans or underground creatures, are official wizards or existences of the same level. The intelligence that is still alive until now is not bad. The first time the intelligence is poor, it will be turned into a relief and hung on the jade pillar. At this time, they They are all thinking hard about how to defeat the master between life and death.

Lin Chen raised his head and looked at the master of life and death in the distance. With his eyesight, he could only see a light man, just like a mortal looking at a god, but Lin Chen knew that the master of life and death was far stronger than ordinary immortals. All true gods must be powerful, because it is said that more than one sixth-order true spirit wizard disappeared here.

This shows that the strength of the master between life and death may have reached the seventh level. Even if he wants to use force, he may not be able to do it. He must find a way to defeat the master between life and death. He already has a plan in his heart.

At this moment, noises came from around, he and Lin Yueru turned their heads at the same time, and saw a wizard whose half of the skull was replaced by metal came out, strode towards the crystal road in the center of the palace, and shouted to the light man on the throne:

"I'm going to challenge you!"

The light man leaned forward, and a loud voice echoed in the palace:
"What do you want?"

The wizard put his hands behind his back and said:

"I want you to guess how many fingers I have now, and how many fingers I will have in 10 minutes. If you guess right, you win. If you guess wrong, I win."

As soon as this remark came out, everyone had different expressions, some seemed to realize suddenly and showed regret, while others showed sneer, and Lin Chen was the one who sneered.

Lin Chen has heard of this kind of betting method before, the classic betting against each other in a certain Jin Daxia's novel, but in the novel it is betting on toes, here it is betting on fingers, but they are all the same.

I have to say that this wizard's intelligence is indeed very high. He came up with this extremely ruthless bet. If it was a normal bet, he would definitely win, but the problem is that it is not so simple in this life and death.

I don't know how many wizards have been involved in life and death for tens of thousands of years, and how many are extremely intelligent. He doesn't believe that no one would think of this kind of gambling, but in fact, few can get out alive. It shows that this method is not feasible.

At this time the light man said:
"Are you sure this is your problem?"

The wizard nodded:

"I'm sure, but you can't cheat, and you can't use powerful mana to interfere with my movements."

The light man seemed to disdain cheating, nodded and said:
"I promise you all."

"I bet you have ten fingers now, and you will also have ten fingers later."

Hikaru replied quickly.

The wizard's slightly stiff face showed joy, and he stretched out his hands behind his back and said:
"You lost. I only have nine fingers. I thought I had to cut off one of my fingers, but I didn't expect to win without using it."

The wizard only had nine out of ten fingers, and one of the little fingers on his left hand was missing. He clenched his fist tightly while holding it behind his back, and no one could see clearly for a moment.

"I accidentally melted a little finger in an experiment 15 years ago, but I didn't expect it to win the bet today."

The wizard stretched his nine fingers back and forth with a smug expression on his face.

But his complacency only lasted for a few seconds before he froze, and under the inconceivable eyes of himself and everyone else, his missing little finger head grew out on its own, growing steadily, and soon gave birth to a complete little finger.

This kind of situation would have made him very happy in the past, but at this time, it made him terrified, and he raised his head and shouted:
"You cheat!"

With his right hand, he took out a dagger from his waist and slashed it down. With a bang, the sparks soared, but the dagger broke off, but his fingers were not damaged at all.

"You cheated, you cheated, I don't accept it!"

The wizard's face was full of horror, and he held the little finger of his left hand with his right hand and twisted it vigorously, but it also remained motionless, which made his face full of despair:

"It's impossible, you cheated, I don't accept it, I don't accept it!"

He suddenly raised his head, and a layer of metal appeared on his body. He raised his hands, and runes appeared on his hands. It quickly condensed into a ball of metallic liquid and stretched into a spear as thick as an arm. He aimed it at the light man and threw it violently.
He couldn't throw it out, because his body began to crystallize at some point. Under the eyes of everyone, as he roared with panic and anger, his whole body slowly merged into the crystal floor below, and when he reappeared, he had already appeared on the side of the crystal jade pillar It turns into a crystal relief about to throw a spear.

At this moment, Lin Chen understood why these relief sculptures all had expressions of horror and anger, so it was like this.

Although most people knew that the wizard would fail, seeing the failure process made everyone feel even more desperate. The little cousin suddenly hugged him and cried:
"Brother, I don't want to die yet."

The faces of the others were also ugly, Lin Chen stretched out his hand and patted her on the back to comfort her:

"Don't worry, cousin will rescue you out."

"really?"

She raised her head and looked at her with her mouth flat, without any confidence on her face.

He stretched out his hand to gently scratch her pink face, and said:
"Have some faith in your brother. I will definitely take you out. Come on, smile."

"Humph!"

Not far away, the woman among the three men and one woman snorted coldly:

"Don't be ashamed!"

When the little cousin heard it, she immediately snorted like a cat with its thorns blown:
"It's none of your business, Tian Wan'er, take care of yourself first."

The woman replied bluntly:
"If I can't leave, you can't leave either. It's not a loss for me to be buried with you, the elder disciple who came to the door, and, besides,"

She glanced at the three men beside her, with a look of resentment in her eyes and said:
"Even if it is death, I will make you worse than me."

She suddenly stopped talking and switched to sound transmission. The ears of the three men next to her moved slightly, and they didn't know what they said. The three of them looked at the little cousin with a little serious eyes. One of the bald men suddenly laughed and said:

"Anyway, if you can't get out, you will die in the end. Ms. Lin Yueru has never tasted the taste of a man in her life. Why don't you let everyone have a good time."

"court death!"

Lin Chen suddenly flashed in front of the bald man, and slammed his iron fist with metallic luster on the bald man's chest, making a muffled sound like ringing a bell. The big man chuckled and said:

"The courage is good, but the strength is too low."

As soon as he finished speaking, the murderous intent in his tone burst out. The muscles in his chest suddenly softened and his fist sank into it. An extremely powerful force clamped Lin Chen's fist and was unable to escape. The big man chuckled:

"It's really courting death for a wizard who dares to attack me at the first level."

Looking at Lin Yueru with an evil smile on her face, she said:

"Get rid of your love brother first, and then let him watch us play with you, I believe it will be very cool."

Before he finished speaking, he raised his palms with both hands, and a dazzling cold light flashed on the edges of the palms and slashed fiercely at Lin Chen's shoulders.

"boom!"

The energy ring given by Lin Yueru on his finger propped up a layer of energy shield and shattered on the spot, a teleportation aura lit up and then quickly went out, and it couldn't be teleported here.

The bald man's swords in both palms slashed at Lin Chen's shoulders with unabated force, sparks erupted suddenly, he couldn't help but sink his knees to the ground with a muffled grunt, and a wave of air swayed from his knees.

"elder brother!"

Just as Lin Yueru was about to save him, two figures flashed in front of her and blocked her, Tian Wan'er looked proud:

"Don't worry, he won't die. You should worry about yourself first, and later you will know what it means to live or die."

Not far away, the gazes of other wizards and alien races were attracted, and even the figures sitting cross-legged in the depths raised their heads.

According to the rules between life and death, the light man will not force them to bet against each other, but if they cannot win, they will stay here forever. Many powerful wizards have no confidence to win, so they stay here forever, and some have stayed here for several years. Ten years or even hundreds of years, from the last time between life and death, the last time, or even earlier, it entered until now without eating or drinking, and it is still alive.

When this kind of thing happened in this boring world, many people watched it with great interest.

"boom!"

A fist wrapped in golden light hit Lin Chen's chest, and sparks flew everywhere. The chest of the steel-framed body unexpectedly collapsed, but the sternum cracked and collapsed, but there was no sound of breaking. Under the influence of witchcraft, his muscles and bones were completely destroyed. into steel.

The bald man showed a cruel expression on his face, and his right hand turned into a palm knife again and slashed at Lin Chen's skull.

He crossed his hands, and his whole body flew upside down like a cannonball dozens of meters, slammed into a crystal pillar and flew to the ground, the steel body actually cracked tiny cracks.

"Fuck, it's too strong."

This bald man's strength is at least the second level peak, maybe the third level, otherwise it would be impossible to crush him so easily. You must know that Lin Chen's physical fitness is now comparable to that of a second level wizard. He can easily crush him, at least the second level peak. Or third level.

"The boy is quite tough. There are not many first-order wizards who are so durable."

The bald man's neck twisted so hard that his joints creaked, and he strode forward and punched him on the head fiercely, not at all worried that he would punch his head open.

A punch as fast as lightning undoubtedly hit him on the head, a circle of air blasted, Lin Chen remained motionless, and a layer of spiritual light protected him.

"I want to bet!"

He raised his hand high, and said aloud again what he had said silently in his heart just now.

At the last moment when the bald man was about to hit him with a punch, he directly made a bet in his mind to the master between life and death. Under the protection of the rules, no one could hurt him.

Although there are ways to kill this bald man, but Lin Chen doesn't want to expose the space of the Rubik's Cube before the bet, so he can only bet with the master who is between life and death in advance, and get away first.

Faced with this situation, the bald man didn't dare to do anything no matter how unwilling he was, and he couldn't do anything. He stared at Lin Chen viciously for a while, and then said:

"Boy, you made a wrong choice. When you die, your little sister will suffer even more."

From the beginning to the end, he didn't think Lin Chen could win.

The same goes for other people, even Lin Yueru, but she didn't say anything, but said to the master between life and death with a serious face:
"I want to bet against you too."

The tragic look on his face made Lin Chen a little speechless. I'm not dead yet.

He touched his head speechlessly, took a breath, and said to the naked man:

"Can I just take a break and catch my breath?"

The light man stared at him, and a white light flew out and hit him. The invisible force healed his cracked steel body, and all the energy and strength consumed were recovered, and he returned to the best state directly.
