Chapter 226 Opponent, placer gold!
"Ladies and gentlemen, dream chasers, wealthy people, "watchmakers" and family guests, and the famous unknown guests of the Star Train! Welcome to the show of the Interstellar Peace Company!"
"You are so late, everyone on the Starry Sky Train and the "uninvited guests" here." Sha Jin said to Huang Quan from behind a curtain.
"We're here to keep our appointment, Mr. Shajin, and according to etiquette, you should also show up." Jizi looked at the curtain.
"Of course I will, but before that, I would like to introduce tonight's protagonist... Please welcome... Miss Star Core!"
The gold dust behind the curtain suddenly applauded.
"I'm not here for the talent show." Xing said.
"Let me remind you that this stage and the identity of the pioneer should have nothing to do with catching the real murderer." Walter said to Sha Jin behind the curtain.
"No, it's related. Of course it's related. Otherwise, why would I work so hard to gain your trust and invite you all here? She is the only eyewitness who witnessed two murders. She is the best person to prove that "there are no casualties in dreams" is just empty talk!"
"Two murders?" Ji Zi frowned in confusion.
"Yes, ma'am, the second murder is about to happen, right here, in the Clark Movie Park...a truly grand death."
"You, you...you, and you...everyone will die, and it's all because of you, Miss Star Core...you will personally become Death here."
Gold Dust said this, then slowly walked out from behind the curtain.
"My energy is not that great..." Xing shook his head. He did not think he could do such a thing.
"Don't underestimate yourself. I told you that you have enough power to overturn the entire card table... Let me explain it more clearly. I will detonate the star core in your body and create a small 'accident' in Pinocchio. Bang! The whole paradise will turn into a shattered dream. Then, before the family can react, I will become the navigator of the company's fleet."
"Bluffing is useless to us. If you can really do it, you would have had plenty of opportunities before." Huang Quan didn't believe what Sha Jin said at all.
"You're betting with me? Fine, I'll bet with you, too. I bet that I can win big and prove that the oath of "harmony" is a complete joke with an unprecedented explosion."
"You can't do it." Huang Quan stared at him coldly.
"Of course I can do it. It's just another gamble. I came from the desert of Gygania. For sixty copper coins, people branded me, put shackles on me, sent me to the rack, and buried me in the yellow sand... But the sun couldn't kill me. Instead, the quicksand sent me to the embrace of the society and the company. Remember, I didn't win once by chance. I have never 'lost' before."
"Let me share with you a proverb, "Sleep is a rehearsal for death." Why does life sleep? Because we are not ready to face death. Every night's dream is no different from going to death. Just like you and me at this moment, with the intention of dying in our hearts, we hide in the land of sleep, and "death" will come in response to our dreams."
"Friends, the game has already begun. You can't refuse. There is no reason and no room for negotiation."
The gold dust held its foundation in its hand and slowly rose into the air...
"I bet, I gamble, I win... I let fate spin the roulette wheel, I risk everything, I go through life and death..."
"Everything is dedicated to the Amber King!"
"Come on, let's see who has the last laugh... the game begins!"
As soon as Sha Jin finished speaking, the chips in his hand flew out and were thrown towards everyone.
Those chips were blocked by the star in the front, and they were all bounced off and fell to the side and behind.
Seeing this, Sha Jin just sneered.
Then the spread out chips suddenly exploded.
A golden light flashed, and the energy contained in it spread into the air.
Those energies suddenly interacted and merged, forming a 'golden sea'.
Xing realized that something was wrong, so he quickly thrust the flaming spear in his hand into the ground.
A layer of shield appeared on everyone around me, including myself.
Sure enough, something strange happened in the 'golden sea' above everyone.
More chips actually fell from the 'golden sea'...
Every time a chip falls, there will be an explosion.
Gradually, the star's shield could no longer hold on.
Seeing this, Xing also attacked the gold sand with his shield that had not yet been broken.
Sha Jin looked at Xing rushing towards him and said with disdain.
"The inferior stone of the city builders...is worthless."
"Whether it is a bad stone...let it tell you!" Xing responded and stabbed the spear into the ground in front of the gold sand.
The flame pillar instantly rose up, washing over Sagine himself.
Xing was surprised, did it succeed?
But when the flames dissipated, the gold dust stood intact in the center of the erupting flames.
"How is that possible?" Xing was surprised.
"boom!"
Before Xing could react, he was kicked away by the gold dust.
The flaming spear in her hand also fell at Sha Jin's feet.
"Hmph...bad stone is bad stone, worthless..." Shajin said, and then threw the flaming gun next to Xing.
"Xing!" Sanyueqi hurried over and helped Xing up.
"Are you okay..." Liuying was also worried and ran over.
"Strong cards, slow play, posturing... you guys are making me a little anxious."
"For the sake of fun, everyone, I'll bet all my chips. Only when you abandon rationality can you truly gamble!"
A confident smile appeared on Sha Jin's lips, and he waved his arms suddenly. A bright light suddenly appeared in the sky. Then, countless large chips fell from the void like a meteor shower, accompanied by a roar, shocking the minds of everyone present.
"Field Expansion: King's Treasure House"
"'Ling Shi', you will definitely follow the bet, right? Hahaha!" Sha Jin's laughter was hearty and arrogant, and his eyes were directed at Huang Quan.
Faced with this sudden scene, Walter and Jizi quickly adjusted their postures and prepared to face the possible "storm".
However, at this moment, Huang Quan's figure walked forward leisurely, and her body seemed to be shrouded in a layer of faint light. Time seemed to slow down around her, and her figure began to blur and fade.
She slowly bent down, her fingertips lightly touching the ground. The flaming spear that Shajin regarded as an inferior stone seemed to be given life under her touch, gently leaping up and landing in her palm. Then Huang Quan closed her eyes and murmured: "I wish to mourn for the dead, my tears will fall like rain, filling the river..."
"Like a surging tide, leading you home..." As the words fell, Huang Quan's eyes suddenly opened, and a blood-red tear flashed in his eyes. It was a farewell to the past and a determination for the future.
She gripped the spear tightly, but in a flash, she changed to her long sword. Her posture was like a sword about to be unsheathed, with its edge fully exposed.
Suddenly, the ground began to tremble all around, and magma gushed out from the ground like an angry beast, devouring the land beneath their feet. The footholds under their feet were rapidly shrinking, and danger was lurking on all sides.
The raging magma seemed to be pulled by some force, rising into the air and turning into hot torrents, pointing directly to the huge pile of chips in the sky. The air was filled with heat and uneasiness, and everyone seemed to be in a doomsday scene.
At this critical moment, Huang Quan swung the long sword in his hand suddenly, and a dazzling light cut through the sky, merging with the magma in the air, condensing into a huge flaming sword, which was unstoppable and pointed straight to the sky.
With a deafening roar, the huge pile of chips was cut off by the flaming sword, the field of gold sand collapsed instantly, and the barrier of dreams was completely torn apart by this blow.
When the dust settled, a drizzle gently brushed across the ground that had been baptized by fire, taking away the last trace of heat. The magma quickly receded, leaving only a charred area and a faint smell of sulfur, proving that everything that had just happened was not an illusion.
Huang Quan was no longer there. She disappeared like a ghost, leaving only a faint afterimage, and disappeared with the gold dust.
