At the main entrance of the amusement park, the fat clown put one hand behind his back and did not dare to show the dagger in his hand. He was not waiting for an opportunity to make a sneak attack, but was afraid that when the dagger appeared, the three evil gods on the opposite side would crumble him into a ball and stuff him into the mouse hole, and then
Pour sulfuric acid into it.
The dagger in the hand of the fat clown is called 'mockery'. The fat clown used it to cut the necks of many players, and then nailed the dagger in front of the victim. The clown face at the end of the handle seemed to be mocking the dying victim.
.
"Tell us, where are the fragments of the scroll you know? Don't be nervous, we are not bad people."
Wood stepped forward, followed by Su Xiao and Sias. Seeing this, the fat clown's heart almost rose to his throat.
In the past, even if he faced death, he would not be so panicked, but this time he was used as a shield and died here like this. The fat clown was very unwilling, and this unwillingness gradually turned into a fear of death.
"Stop talking? Did you just play tricks on us? Huh?"
Sinas' eyes began to look evil.
"Of course not. It's just that the storage locations of the three scroll fragments are very special."
The fat clown waved his hands repeatedly as he spoke, and his movements were a bit exaggerated. This has always been his habit. He is exaggerated, flashy, and likes to vilify himself and paralyze others. But this time, he made a huge mistake.
The fat clown suddenly shouted, he was still holding a dagger in his right hand, which made his expression freeze, and sweat quickly broke out on his forehead.
"Oh? So you still have a weapon in your hand. Faced with our kindness, you hide the weapon behind your back, which is disappointing."
Wood's breath also cooled down. He would not rashly walk into the amusement park without causing the fat clown to die.
"It's terrible."
Sias, who had kept a straight face just now, started to become angry.
"..."
Su Xiao didn't say anything. He was trying to determine whether the fat clown was lying. If the other party didn't know the clues to the [Picture Scroll Fragment], he would kill the Source of the World immediately. If he was lucky, a treasure box would drop.
"No...no, this is a playground prop."
The fat clown's face was so nervous that he was sweating. He knew that the three guys in front of him might be smiling one second, but the next second they would be on him and slit his throat like a chicken.
"Props? Oh, I see, you are from the circus."
Wood's words made the fat clown a little confused, but he immediately said yes.
"You must show us how to swallow a knife. Seeing how enthusiastic you are, you don't need to be so polite..."
"Yes yes yes."
"However," Wood changed the topic and continued: "Since this is your way of welcoming us, we can't refuse. Come on, let's start your performance."
Wood made a gesture of invitation, and the fat clown who nodded like a chicken pecking at rice froze in place. He glanced at the dagger in his hand. This was the weapon he used to kill people. If he swallowed it, he would be at least half dead.
"It seems that you don't want to perform knife swallowing anymore? Or is this actually not a prop as you said, but a real weapon? Weapons represent hostility, and hostility means that you are about to die."
The pupil flames in Wood's eyes condensed, which made the fat clown take a big step back. His instinctive thought was, is this guy in front of him a devil?
Let alone mention it, Wood is indeed a demon.
The fat clown, whose face was covered with sweat, struggled for a while. Finally, he gritted his teeth, glared, stretched his neck, and started to perform a knife-swallowing performance.
The fat clown raised his head, and the dagger was gradually swallowed into his mouth. The guy was very smart, and swallowed the dagger upside down, with the handle facing down.
The fat clown rolled his eyes and trembled with pain before swallowing the dagger. He jumped a few times and let the dagger fall into his stomach. He would not die if he swallowed this thing, but he could not exercise strenuously. Fighting would be a recipe for death.
In fact, Wood has long seen that the fat clown is a shield, and the current situation is the best choice. The fat clown is an enemy, but it has value, but there is one thing, its combat power must be limited.
Wood used a very clever method. He did not ask the fat clown to sign a contract, which would make the fat clown despair and be counterproductive.
Letting the opponent swallow the dagger will not only limit the opponent's mobility and fighting power, but also prevent the opponent from despair. Don't forget that the dagger is the fat clown's own weapon, and it is something he is familiar with. Swallowing this thing, and signing
The contract and the alchemical poison in the body are completely different psychologically.
In order to survive, the fat clown will be more obedient. He is now in a restricted but not desperate situation.
White-faced Wood sang, and it was rare for Su Xiao to sing a red face. He took out a bottle of active medicine from the storage space, mixed some gelatin in it, and threw it to the fat clown. To Su Xiao, this thing was not
Not precious.
The fat clown took it, hesitated for a few seconds, then gritted his teeth and drank it. As soon as he drank it, he felt the sharp pain in his chest subside quickly, and a gelatinous substance filled his stomach.
Feeling this, the fat clown said nothing and began to lead the way.
According to the Fat Clown, his relationship with the Nightmare King is not close, and the two parties are more like cooperation.
The entire nightmare world is not big. The game areas include the Birth Square, the Slaughterhouse, and the Playground. The innermost town of Ermeng is an inaccessible territory. The King of Nightmares and his minions are entrenched there. Right now
They have definitely gathered together, waiting for Su Xiao and others to arrive and attack in groups.
This also means that there is no need to rush to Ermeng Town in a short period of time. Before going there, the main thing is to get the three [Picture Scroll Fragments] in the amusement park. The one with the most [Picture Scroll Fragments] can become the final winner.
The Ferris wheel in the amusement park rotates slowly and is filled with people. These people's clothes are brand new and their bodies have turned into skeletons. It looks weird and scary. The carousel and pirate ship are similar scenes.
The neon lights are bright, and apart from the sound of the equipment running, the playground is silent.
On the way forward, Su Xiao saw a large stone house on the lawn on the right. This large stone house had a herringbone thatched roof. The rocks on the outer wall had traces of melting. It looked like a half-melted candle. It felt like...
It's like being burned by the sun.
"This stone house is a bit strange."
Wood slowed down and after hearing this, the Fat Clown explained: "That was a month ago. It suddenly appeared here. There is nothing surprising."
"Isn't this sudden appearance of a building worthy of surprise?"
"It's not worth it. The nightmare world we are in is an inner world that relies on the world of the main painting. The world of the main painting looks like a ghost. Something suddenly appears in the nightmare world that relies on it. It's not surprising at all. There is no such thing.
'Shuttle', where should we find the players?"
The fat clown spread his hands and said that this was normal. After Wood looked at the big stone house for a moment, he was undoubtedly there.
Su Xiao didn't look much at the big stone house and continued to move forward. Not only had he seen the big stone house before, he had also stayed in it for a few days.
Ignoring the big stone house for the time being, Su Xiao entered a skull door under the guidance of the fat clown. After entering, noisy sounds reached his ears. This was a large video game arcade.
"Guests, do you need coins..."
A woman with a fake smile on her face stood behind the bar. After hearing her words, the fat clown was shocked to death. The rules of the game were indeed like this, but Su Xiao and the other three were not participants in the amusement park.
The fat clown glared at the fake-smiling woman and walked towards the arcade.
Su Xiao looked around. The era of this arcade was very strange. There were arcades from all eras. There were also many guests here, all of whom were spirit bodies with transparent bodies.
Su Xiao was very interested in these ghosts, which reminded him of the female ghost Xiao Hong. The original Xiao Hong had eighth-level combat power. When Su Xiao fought to the death with Yue Lang, he released the weak Xiao Hong and killed her.
He defeated the opponent, relied on the passive characteristics of Qingying King to recover mana, and finally won, thanks to Xiaohong.
After some observation, Su Xiao found that the ghosts in this arcade had little fighting power. The rules of the game here are that the players exchange their lifespan for coins and gamble with coins. After winning how many coins, they will pass through this small game.
level.
This has nothing to do with Su Xiao. He is not here to participate in the game. The truly powerful existence here is the entire amusement park. Without reaching a contract with the amusement park or triggering certain conditions, the amusement park cannot do anything to Su Xiao.
The fat clown came to the innermost room of the arcade. He pushed open an old small wooden door, and a room made of skeletons came into view.
The area of this room is about fifty square meters. The walls are made of leg bones, and the ceiling is made of arm bones. When you look up, you see densely packed skeleton hands, and the floor is neatly stacked with skulls, all covered with heavenly spirit caps.
Upward.
A gambling table was placed in the center of the room, and the dealer behind the table was a skeleton. Even so, he was extremely skilled at flipping the cards in his hand, shuffling them, and numbering them.
"That's it."
The fat clown didn't say much. He just meant that the skeleton had three "Picture Scroll Fragments" in his hand.
Neither Wood nor Sias took action. They felt that the skeleton opposite them was not easy to deal with.
"Three of you, your battle for the scroll has nothing to do with me, but...if you are interested in betting a few games with me, I will not refuse."
The skeleton opened its mouth, and it pulled out a small drawer from the gambling table, took out three [Picture Scroll Fragments], and threw them on the gambling table.
There is no doubt that this skeleton is an invincible existence. The opponent knows that the nightmare world has been notarized and that a battle for the scroll is going on here.
"If you're not interested in playing a few games, just leave. A 'little guy' came here recently and I'm very interested in him."
Su Xiao roughly guessed what the little guy the skeleton was talking about was the little thing in the big stone house.
"What's your attitude, you two?"
Wood sat at the gambling table. As a devil, he would not miss such an interesting thing.
"Let's play a few games."
Sias also sat down. He lived on the Death Star, the home of the ancient gods, and had long been accustomed to communicating with many beings that were impossible to confront, so he was very calm about the current situation.
“Not interested”
Su Xiao stated that after sensing the strength of the skeleton, he concluded that he could not do anything secretly this time and decided not to participate.
"Unfortunately, I was rejected by the exterminator again. The last exterminator who refused to play a few games with me was... Green Gillian, yes, that was the female robber who took away my bet and was driven away by me.
The female robber."
The skeleton seemed to be smiling. This kind of existence is fundamentally different from the King of Nightmares. The strength of the two parties is not in the same dimension.
"My bet is life against life. People always don't value their time and waste their lives. You two, how about we bet with one chip every year. Don't worry, I have a lot of 'life souls'."
A playing card spins and floats up. The back of the card is a skeleton, and the front is blank. When the card is still in mid-air, numbers appear on the front. These numbers represent the "life souls" possessed by the skeleton. These "life souls"
It has won everything, and its "life soul" stock is: 1695234 years.
"Riding your life? That's terrible. I'll bet it."
Wood placed the jar of the abyss on the gaming table, with a hint of ridicule in his voice. He would not participate in the game with his life.
Wood's operation can be said to be very arrogant. The skeleton has a lot of background. If Wood can get rid of the Jar of Abyss with the help of this gamble, then he will be the hero of the entire Devil clan. The Devil clan has suffered greatly from the Jar of Abyss.
Funny to say, both the Spell Destroyer and the Spellcaster obtained the seeds of the black maple tree by opening the Abyss Channel before it collapsed.
After the demons opened the abyss passage, they asked for a father to come back. What's even more disturbing is that he was still a stepfather, so he would beat them if nothing happened.
Seeing Wood taking out the Jar of the Abyss, the skeleton behind the gambling table froze. Then under Wood's astonished gaze, the skeleton took out a dark semicircular lid from the drawer of the gambling table. Regardless of the color, pattern,
The texture and lid are exactly the same as those of the jar of the abyss.
There was a slight tremor in the skeleton's hand, which was a tremor of excitement. Even an existence like it was seriously harmed by this cover. Today, the opportunity to get rid of this thing came.
Even if Wood is an old man, he is confused now and his head is buzzing. At this moment, he knows that the father that the devil clan invited back hundreds of years ago is incomplete and only half a father. Now this father has
Opportunities are spliced to perfection, are you surprised? Are you surprised?
If the Jar of the Abyss becomes complete, will it cause harm to the point of doubting your life? Wood is sure that after this thing is complete, not only will it not get better, but it will get worse.
The skeleton opposite sat down and looked at Wood. The atmosphere was almost frozen. Sinas immediately stood up and stepped aside. It didn't want to have anything to do with the Jar of the Abyss.
Wood took out a translucent mechanical eye shadow. With the appearance of this thing, the [Insight Eye] was forcibly summoned by Wood. They are both of the void race. Although the Arcane Eternal Star has the right to use the [Insight Eye], this
It is an item belonging to the Void Tree, and Wood has a way to forcefully summon it for half an hour.
As the [Insight Eye] is activated, the scene in the bone room is transmitted to the big screen of the arena.
In the circular auditorium of the arena, the audience who were laughing because of the change in the scene felt a little disappointed. They were enjoying the cat-dog battle, and then Morey, as the referee, was hugged by Penny and bit his hair.
"Damn, why did you change the place?"
"It's Sias, Wood, and Bai Ye. They are indeed still in the nightmare world, and there is that skeleton. That thing... is very difficult to mess with."
"This is a gambling game. The chip is a black clay pot with a lid. I don't see anything special about it, no! This seems to be the Devil's Jar of the Abyss!!"
The audience was talking a lot. Seeing Wood's appearance in the seats where the Devils were, the Devils here became a little lively, but soon, the seats became silent.
Hooray!
The demon audience stood up in their seats one after another. Their eyes were fixed on the big screen above the center field. They all saw the semicircular black pottery cover on the gaming table.
Nightmare world, inside the bone house.
Wood stared at the skeleton opposite him. He knew that the opportunity to get rid of the Jar of the Abyss had come. According to the rules of this game, the winner took everything. In other words, he had to lose this time. Only losing could he get rid of this scourge. Something that the devil clan has been using for hundreds of years.
"It's been a long time since I experienced the feeling of being nervous. I even tasted a little bit of excitement and excitement."
The skeleton placed the stack of cards in his hand on the gambling table, and pushed the black pottery cover forward with his other skeletal hand.
Seeing this, Wood also pushed the Jar of the Abyss forward. He carefully sensed himself, and there was no sense of distortion. This showed that the Jar of the Abyss did not refuse this bet.
The rules of this game are very simple. Wood and Skeleton each draw a card, and the one with the higher card wins.
Wood and Skull drew cards at the same time, pressed the cards on the gambling table with their fingers, and unfolded them at the same time, without any sloppiness, short, exciting, and... fatal.
There are two cards, the skull is the 9 of diamonds, and the Wood is the 5 of hearts. The skeleton wins.
With a snap, the lid of the Abyss Jar closed on its own, and the restored Abyss Jar automatically slid towards the skeleton.
"I lost, but I also won."
Wood laughed, from the bottom of his heart, and with great joy.
"Really? Did you win? Who stipulated that playing cards only have one face?"
The skeleton pressed his fingers against the 9 of diamonds on the gaming table and turned it over. This was also a 4 of clubs. This was a double-sided card, with one side being a normal card and the other side being a hidden card. This kind of card would be played every time. The skeleton doesn't know how many there are. It's very powerful, but it's a gambler, so that's why it ended up like this. As a pure gambler, the gambling games it presides over are fair, but some of the rules are a little special. This is to increase the tension of the game.
Seeing this, Wood was shocked, but after a few seconds, the pupils in his eyes condensed and he said:
"You are very powerful and very ancient, but... use your existing wisdom to achieve everything to the extreme. This is the principle of my devil clan, ancient existence. I still said what I just said, you... win, But, you also lost."
Wood also turned over the cards on the gaming table in front of him. His 5 of hearts turned into a 3 of spades, which was the smallest card.
"This powerful being, please accept the gift of my demon clan, the jar of the abyss."
The pupils in Wood's eyes turned dark green, and he was smiling.
Void, inside the Mowu Arena.
Wood lost, and the Jar of the Abyss changed owners. The devils who were staring at the big screen, some slumped in their seats, some laughed loudly, and some covered their faces with one hand, their shoulders shaking. The Jar of the Abyss, Finally sent it out.
In the bone house, Su Xiao watched the whole gambling game. There was indeed a chance of getting three [Picture Scroll Fragments] by participating in the gambling game, but he didn't know if this gambling game could be cheated. Based on how seriously the skeleton took the gambling game, there was a high probability that the gambling game was based on Lucky.
In Su Xiao's view, relying on luck = unreliability = poor luck = unlucky = bound to lose = not participating in the gamble = win.
