Deep in the Living

Chapter 652 Gambler
"Optimal solution dice"

After being endowed with divinity, dealer Xiao Xun's gambling abilities were developed to the extreme. Originally he only had two dice, but now he has six.

Each of the beads corresponds to a number from 1 to 6, and together they can form a six-digit number.

Different sequences correspond to various types of "techniques" and will have a six-fold effect.

Such arrangements are ever-changing, and even Xiao Xun's brain could hardly remember all of them, but he didn't need to.

Because he can cheat.
His pituitary gland can always find the optimal solution based on the current situation and manipulate the six dice to produce the best result.

This is his strongest form as an apostle, defeating even his once invincible boss, Golden Gordon.

but……

The man before me,
The youth he admired most ignored this effect from outside the region and continued to suppress him.

Watching Luo Di sacrifice his own spinal cord to kill him.

this moment,
For some reason, Xiao Xun's eyes welled up with tears!
He held nothing back, fully activating all six hands to throw the dice at top speed, achieving the fastest spellcasting speed.

His own body underwent multiple [spell enhancements] during this process, becoming as huge as a golem and as solid as an abyss.

However, they will still be killed.

Every swing of that pitch-black giant sword would slaughter everything in its path.

His body was covered in wounds. Each kill left indelible marks on his body. The accumulation of these marks made Xiao Xun smell the scent of death. He could feel cracks appearing on the surface of his pituitary gland.

If this continues, his pituitary gland will eventually collapse, and the divinity he obtained from beyond the realm will be completely shattered.

A full half-hour massacre.

Xiao Xun was killed hundreds of times, and the entire Golden Casino completely collapsed in the slaughterhouse.

Da da!

The dice fell.

Xiao Xun refreshed the page again.

*Crack!* His two arms broke off and fell off at the same time as the refresh, and he lost feeling in one of his arms, leaving him with only three usable hands.

His entire body was covered in knife wounds, some of which were still bleeding.

Through his slightly blurred vision, he could already see Mr. Di carrying a giant sword, thick ash breaths coming from his mouth as he slashed at him.

Xiao Xun wanted to use his remaining three hands to cast a spell, but rolling the dice would take time, and there wasn't enough time.

The pressure has arrived.

He was about to be killed again.

Despite knowing this, Xiao Xun still smiled broadly, as if he had been looking forward to this moment all along.

however……

when!
The heavy, massive, jet-black sword fell down, but instead of killing it, the sword broke.

After a full half hour of intense attacks, the already crippled Meijin had reached his limit. His spinal opening suddenly broke, reverting to his original Black Spine state, and he fell into a coma.

Meijin's loss of consciousness also affected Roddy, who had been maintaining a high level of tension.

Wow!
A mouthful of blood spurted out.

He fell from mid-air and crashed to the ground, curling up into a ball.

The spinal manipulation was forcibly terminated, leaving the ancient, shriveled spine of the back looking withered and dry.
This was the first time Luo Di had used up his source energy. His body should have been drained five minutes ago, but he had managed to hold on until now.

A sharp pain shot through his spine, and he could feel his entire spine groaning. The only reason he didn't faint was because he was holding on with sheer willpower.

"Is this your limit? Meijin, you've worked hard... I didn't expect to be forced to this point right from the start, so I had no choice but to use this move."

The opponent is almost at their limit; one more kill is all it takes.

Roddy wiped the remaining blood from the corner of his mouth.
His divinity has not been dispelled.
A long, narrow notch appeared in his left palm, and a pitch-black card fell out. In an instant, Roddy's overall aura gradually changed.

The scales meant for balance gradually tipped from hell towards the corner.

Lying on the ground, Roddy looked more like he was lying on the surface of a black door.

Just as he was about to reveal a card he had never used before... *snap!* A hand reached out and grabbed him, a hand with dice embedded in its palm.

No magic was used; it was simply a grab.

Xiao Xun's voice followed:

“Mr. Di, I have seen enough today, I am very satisfied... Don’t use this ‘Joker’ card on me, there are people watching me from behind, and there are many enemies outside.”

Although it felt a bit strange, I decided to say it anyway.

I am a very indecisive person.
My life has always been about making choices with dice, and luckily, I've always chosen correctly. Whether it was running away from home as a child, gambling on the streets, embracing the corner, or heading to the city of sin... every choice I made allowed me to buy a ticket to the real death game and see your performance.

I've been trying to find out about you, and I also want to go to Whirlpool Town.

Unfortunately, I was too weak and indecisive at the time, and was not selected.

Casinos shut down when foreign arrivals came.

I wanted to escape, but I still got infected. Now I have to make a choice again: stay in a secluded place or seek refuge abroad.

I took out the dice again.

However, this time the feeling was different... because before rolling the dice, I seemed to have already made a decision in my heart, and for the first time, I had my own opinion.

I have already been infected, so I must choose to go outside the region. Only in this way can I possibly come into contact with things there and bring back intelligence.

Although he wasn't chosen by Vortex Town, he was noticed by someone from outside the region... In some ways, their judgment wasn't very good.

Mr. Di
From the moment you won the Golden Casino, I had already lost.

As agreed, this item was a gift for Mr. Di... If it were you, you should know how to use it.

A special gold coin slipped from Xiao Xun's palm.

however,
Just as Xiao Xun made this move,

This kind of assistance to a corner, which violates extraterritoriality, was still detected, even if only indirectly.

By violating the contract, Xiao Xun will face a terrifying end far exceeding death.

A whoosh! A gaping abyss, not belonging to this real world, tore open directly above their heads.
Countless creatures swallowed by the abyss are now twisted together like braids, spreading out from the bottom of the abyss.

It resembles a tongue, a hand, and tentacles.

They are coming towards Xiao Xun and will drag him into it.

Faced with such a scene, any unrelated person would be immediately stunned and instinctively want to escape.

Fran immediately went to Roddy's side, intending to carry him away.

however,
A force was transmitted, and Roddy, who should have been unable to move, actually supported his body and slowly stood up.

"Are there any drinks that can provide super-fast recovery?"

"what?"

Fran was taken aback at first, then quickly came to his senses, took out a straw and stuck it into his pumpkin head.

Roddy didn't stand on ceremony and started sucking right away.

Fran shuddered as he sucked on the air, feeling as if his brain was about to be drained dry.

"Go wait for me outside..."

"it is good."

Fran quickly evacuated the area covered by the abyss, leaving Roddy alone inside.

As he watched the swarm of creatures descending, Roddy estimated the remaining time.

"Are you from Jupiter City?"

"Yes……"

“I will help you take the body back and bury it in the cemetery behind my house.”

"Thank you, Mr. Di."

There was no more time; arms were about to touch Xiao Xun's forehead.

Roddy put on the mask, grabbed the other person's head with his divine left arm, and attached a movie tag, signifying the re-recording of the final scene.

This time, Xiao Xun is no longer an extra, but an important actor who is killed in the final scene.

Squeeze it hard!
Brain shattered!

The dice-shaped pituitary gland exhausted its last bit of energy, stopped casting, and gradually disappeared.

Target lost.

The countless individuals that were descending cried out in despair, but they were forced to retract, and the abyss closed.

A gold coin was firmly held in Roddy's hand.
He immediately began searching for the slot machines in the casino, but due to the intense fighting, the casino was severely damaged, and most of the slot machines were destroyed.

Just as he took a step forward, preparing to find a usable machine,
A mist rose from beneath our feet...
