Chapter 129: Wheel/Plate at Sea (7)
"Good evening," said the captain cheerfully. "It's time for dinner again."
"We will also select a food server today to serve food to everyone."
"What are the rules today?" Su Yue asked.
"First, please take your seats," the captain said cheerfully. He saw that some of the men were about to make a move, and emphasized, "If we start killing each other now, every person who dies will have one less meal on the table."
Two people had sullen looks on their faces. One of them had already put his hands in his pockets, but now he took them out as if nothing had happened.
The other players noticed this and kept their distance from the two, but they didn't care.
The players had no choice but to take their seats again. Two chairs had been removed today, and several people rushed to grab the first seat on Su Yue's left yesterday, perhaps thinking that this seat had a chance of becoming a food server. Becoming a food server meant holding your life in your hands for the day, and no one wanted to miss this opportunity.
No one was fighting for it, except Su Yue and Cang Zhi. There was only Su Chen and the man in sunglasses. To be honest, the man in sunglasses didn't do anything special, but he was inexplicably eye-catching.
Just like many people would take a second look at Su Yue Cangzhi, they would also take a second look at the man in sunglasses.
In the end, Su Yue was squeezed to the first position on the right, next to him was Cang Zhi, next to him was Su Chen, and then the man in sunglasses.
After the man in sunglasses sat down, he glanced at Su Chen and said to her with a smile, "Hey."
Su Chen was quite surprised. She didn't expect the other party to take the initiative to chat with her. She replied awkwardly, "Good evening."
The man in sunglasses smiled again and said nothing more.
"These are the rules today." The captain cleared his throat and smiled happily.
The ship seemed to have encountered a small storm and was swaying slightly. The three candles on the table swayed with it, and the candle wax dripped onto the wooden table. In the flickering flames, the flesh on the captain's face melted away again, turning into a terrifying skull.
This time the players were mentally prepared, so they were quite calm when the captain turned into a skull.
"Because there was a problem with obtaining food, we were short on supplies for dinner tonight and could only provide thirteen servings, so one person went without food."
"So now we have to choose an impartial food distributor to distribute food to everyone, and the food distributor will decide who will go without food."
"The disease in the bodies of those who haven't eaten will accelerate, and they may rot and die tonight."
The content is exactly the same as yesterday, except the number of people has changed.
Of course it will be exactly the same content as yesterday.
"Now I will choose the waiter," said the captain.
His eyes once again slowly scanned from his left to his right, and the first player on his left sat up straight eagerly when the captain looked over, as if to say, "Pick me, pick me."
But the captain ignored him. After everyone had watched for a while, he stretched out his bony finger and pointed at Su Yue: "You will be the waiter."
Su Yue: "..."
Playing a grudge game, right?
.
When the other players saw the captain choose Suyue, they realized he was out for revenge, but they were also annoyed. Revenge was all he needed, why put his life in someone else's hands again?
But on second thought, even if the captain didn't choose Su Yue, there was only a one in twelve chance that he would be chosen. Su Yue at least seemed to want to protect them.
Thinking of this, the players had no choice but to accept it reluctantly.
The captain pointed his finger in the direction of Su Yue, and the invisible shackles on Su Yue's chair were untied with a "click". He felt lighter and stood up.
The Skeleton Captain looked up at Su Yue. It was clearly a skull, but Su Yue somehow interpreted it as an expression of watching a show of fun.
Su Yue stared back at the captain.
The Skeleton Captain urged, "Get started... No, let's divide the food."
Everyone: “…”
You fucking know what this means!
.
The plate of rice in front of the captain has been divided up today. Even if you kill the captain with a punch, it will be useless. According to the captain, when a person dies, the corresponding plate of rice will disappear out of thin air.
This means that Su Yue’s original method is useless.
Su Yue stood there, seemingly also stumped.
The skeleton captain snapped his fingers (I have to say, the sound of bones snapping their fingers is really loud), and even melodious and humorous light music came from the speakers on the ship.
This is the first time I have seen an NPC provoke a player.
The other players even temporarily forgot that they had a one in twelve chance of dying and focused on watching the excitement.
Su Yue wasn't provoked. After thinking for a moment, he asked the same question as yesterday: "How should I divide the food?"
"Just place the plate in front of whoever you want to share the food with. Remember to get your share of the food too, or you will die from the accelerated decay."
Su Yue: “Oh.”
He finally moved and walked towards the table.
In an instant, all the players were no longer in the mood to listen to the humorous music, and their attention was completely focused on Su Yue, because it seemed that Su Yue had no other choice, which meant that someone had to die.
Died at Suyue's choice.
"Don't kill me!" Just as Su Yue walked towards the table, a player suddenly shouted in despair, "I can give you money! I have a lot of money! How much do you want? I can give it to you when we get out!"
This sentence opened the mouths of all the players like a tide.
"Don't kill me! I can give you houses in the capital! I'll give you as many as you want!"
"I can also give you money! I'm the CEO of a listed company!"
…
Along with these pleas, there were also threats.
"Don't touch me and my girlfriend! Or the remaining one of us will kill you!"
No matter whether it was inducement or coercion, Su Yue remained unmoved, as if he didn't hear it.
There are also some very strange ways of pleading.
"Please don't kill me! I can help you make a wish to the gods!"
Su Yue paused when he heard this request and turned back to look at the player who spoke.
The other person is not good-looking, just looks like an ordinary person.
But if you look closely at his eyes, you will see that his pupils are a deep purple.
When the player saw Su Yue looking at him, he was ecstatic at first, but after noticing Su Yue's playful eyes, he was stunned and stepped back.
"Make a wish to God?" Su Yue narrowed his eyes and repeated it.
"Yes!" the player shouted as if he had grabbed a lifeline. "I can help you make a wish to the gods! Any wish can be fulfilled! I can give you houses, cars, and money, as well as handsome men, beautiful women, and love! Just don't kill me!"
"He's lying! There are no gods in this world!" someone shouted immediately. Some players here were also relatively insignificant, unable to offer the same leverage as others, so they had to do everything they could to attract Su Yue's attention.
The scene suddenly became a mess, and almost everyone was shouting, except Cang Zhi, Su Chen and the man in sunglasses.
However, Su Yue ignored the noise until the shouting stopped a little after a while, and he finally looked at the player again.
Su Yue said, "You know what? If a god can grant any wish, then he is definitely not a good god."
The player was stunned and was about to explain something when Su Yue said calmly, "But I won't argue with you for now."
As he spoke, he walked around the counter without picking up a single plate. Under the gaze of all the players, Su Yue walked straight to the side of the Skeleton Captain.
Then he picked up the plate in front of the Skeleton Captain and placed it in front of his seat.
Everyone:!!!
Skeleton Captain: ???
.
The Skeleton Captain was stunned for a long time before finally understanding the situation.
He looked at Su Yue and said unhappily, "This is my dinner. You can't steal my food."
"How can this be called snatching?" Su Yue said confidently, "You said I'm the person who distributes the food. I have to put the plate in front of each person before it's considered a share."
"I didn't divide the plate in front of you, so it's just placed there. It's not called 'your dinner' at all."
Everyone: ???
Captain: ???
The captain said even more unhappily: "If you don't feed me, there will be very serious consequences."
The captain said yesterday that if he had no food to eat, he would be very unhappy and it might cause the ship to sink.
Everyone remembered this, so when Su Yue took the plate away, in addition to being shocked, everyone was also thinking, is he trying to kill himself?
If they could move at this time, someone might jump out of their chair and press the accommodation month.
"That was indeed the case yesterday," Su Yue replied, "but I specifically asked you about the rules for today, and you didn't mention this."
Everyone: “…”
Can we still play like this?
captain:"……"
Are you finding fault here?
The Skeleton Captain had nothing to say. He had already distributed the food to himself, so there was no rule in the rules that "the ship will sink if the captain has no food."
Now this kid has found a loophole again and he has no way to deal with it.
Now everyone could see that Captain Skeleton was very angry. Even though his head was just a skull, he seemed to be about to smoke with anger.
Obviously, the Skeleton Captain is already thinking about how to set the rules tomorrow to trap this guy.
Su Yue looked at the Skeleton Captain, thought for a while, and suddenly punched him again!
With a "crack", skull fragments flew everywhere. Su Yue twisted his neck skillfully, and with a "click", the skeleton captain rotated 360 degrees on the chair, and his body fell to one side.
Skeleton Captain: Dead again.
Everyone: “…”
.
Su Yue dusted off his hands and continued to place all the plates in front of everyone. While he was doing this, no one dared to speak, not even to breathe loudly.
After a long while, someone finally asked cautiously, "Hey, we have enough food now, why did you kill the NPC?"
Su Yue said lightly: "I don't like him."
