Chapter 7: First Hospital (6)
“Huh???” the fat man widened his eyes.
"You don't believe it?" Bai Jinshu raised his eyebrows.
"Not really..." Lu Changfeng didn't seem to know how to start. "I'm just curious, is there such a thing?"
"Yes," Bai Jinshu was waiting for Lu Changfeng to say this. He casually took out a coin from his pocket and threw it up before he could see it clearly. "So why not verify it? After all, practice is the only criterion for testing truth."
On the screen, the comments were lively:
[Appeared! The Nerve Knife! ]
[It’s a nerve knife!!!]
[It’s been a long time since I’ve seen a live psychopath! ! ! ]
[The last crazy person ended his contract and left several years ago. Woohoo, my happiness is back! ]
[Family members! A new casino has appeared, how can we stand still? ]
[I miss you so much! My casino! ]
[I am a newbie, let me first explain what a "nerd knife" means, and what a gambling house is...]
[A "nerve knife" is a football term that describes a "lunatic" super performance. It is usually used to describe a player's unstable performance, sometimes showing flashes, and sometimes being completely out of form. *Skao, who is obsessed, is also called a "nerve knife" in the circle, referring to his fixed attribute of being very good when he is good, and very bad when he is bad. 】
[Ah...Isn't this fixed attribute good? ]
[It's not bad, it's just not very stable. Luck is a very difficult thing to define. To put it nicely, it's the icing on the cake in good times and the final blow in bad times. If you really want to calculate the actual effect it can have, it's too vague. For example, if the fat guy didn't say it himself, he might not know that the teammate next to him was a healer until the end of the dungeon. So this kind of obsession is very extreme, and the performance is extremely unstable. It can't be simply said to be good or bad. ]
【Oh, that's it.】
[As for the casino, we run it for fun. Because the performance of the crazy knife type obsession is extremely unstable, in order to add some fun to the live report, when this type of exploration team member uses the obsession, we will open a bet to bet whether he is a super god or a super ghost. You can bet on points or some strange things. It is very addictive to play. The foundation also encourages this kind of stupid behavior of giving money to the dealer and team members for free, so everyone from top to bottom welcomes the appearance of the crazy knife. ]
[What do you mean by a big fool? The above person has some personal emotions 23333]
[It’s finally time for the property manager to come! Is it open for sale? Hurry up, I can’t wait! He seems to be very knowledgeable! ]
[Look up, it's already open. The current odds for the regular points betting are 1:1 for super gods and super ghosts]
【Look at the face, no brains, super god. 】
[Super ghost, if you lose, go and approve the file. ]
[Super God, if I win I will skip work tomorrow. ]
[Super ghost, if you lose, you can invest in angel investment to get on board the ship. 】
The coin flashed silver in the air, and the long-haired young man held it on the back of his hand: "Do you think it's heads or tails?"
Lu Changfeng was a little slow to react.
"Coin tossing," Bai Jinshu raised his eyebrows and looked at him with pity, "Didn't you play it when you were a kid?"
Lu Changfeng: "...This is still available."
He just didn't expect that Scario would prove his luck in this way.
"If you don't want to guess, then what should I say?" Bai Jinshu tilted his head, "I think it's the opposite."
The back of the hand that was blocking the coin moved away, and the coin fell on the back of Bai Jinshu's left hand, with the back side facing up.
He is right.
"You can do it again," Bai Jinshu smiled. He threw the coin and caught it. "You choose first this time."
"I choose the opposite side..." Lu Changfeng guessed tentatively.
"Okay," Bai Jinshu nodded and continued nonchalantly, "Then I'll choose the front side."
Move the palm of your hand holding the coin away so that the front side faces up.
Right again!
This method is quite interesting. Lu Changfeng stretched his neck curiously.
Bai Jinshu glanced at him and chuckled, "Come again."
A silver light flashed, and the coin was held on the back of his hand. Lu Changfeng refused to believe it: "I still choose the tail side."
"Well, I'll stay positive then."
Bai Jinshu opened his hand, still facing upwards.
Next, Lu Changfeng chose the tail side five times in a row, and the coin landed on the heads side five times.
Now the way he looked at Bai Jinshu was as if he was watching the finale magician in a circus.
"I've been right eight times in a row. If you want to see more, you can try again," Bai Jinshu curled his lips and tossed the coin above his head, "But don't guess the heads or tails this time."
In the live broadcast room, under the crazy increase of comments, Bai Jinshu said slowly: "I think this time, the coin is neither heads nor tails."
As the words fell, the coin flashed a silver light in the air. However, unlike the previous times, this time Bai Jinshu did not reach out to catch the coin, but let it fall to the ground.
An arc of light flashed, and Lu Changfeng and the audience in the live broadcast room lowered their heads and looked in the direction where the coin finally fell.
Damn it.
The coin just fell into the open space in front of him, reflecting a sharp light from the top, neither right side up nor wrong side up.
——It spun and stood still.
Now, Lu Changfeng looked at Bai Jinshu as if he was looking at a god.
The audience also seemed to be watching a fairy:
【Sorry, I admit that I spoke a little loudly before. 】
[I'm so, so nervous. 】
How is this done?
[How much gold will be given out in this lucky draw...]
[You're going to use this luck to draw cards? You should at least trade stocks for me, right?]
[No, the new nerve knife is too outrageous. If you guess right, it can also explain the human intervention factor. How did it stand up? ]
[So this is the nerve knife...]
[There was no human intervention in the previous two rounds. Except for the first time, Skao always let Lu Chang choose after holding the coin, which means the result appeared before the choice.]
Outside the live broadcast report hall, a low-end space with a rating of only E suddenly saw a surge in viewership, exceeding one million in an instant.
Um?
All investors who were looking for suitable projects noticed this strange live report room.
what happens?
They clicked on the live report with doubts:
【\nerve knife/\nerve knife/\nerve knife/\nerve knife/\nerve knife/】
【\Super God/\Super God/\Super God/\Super God/\Super God/】
【\Skao/\Skao/\Skao/\Skao/\Skao/】
I'm awesome!
The investors who clicked into this live broadcast room were unable to move their legs.
[There is a crazy person in this live broadcast room! 】
*
In the unknown space, Bai Jinshu had no idea that the attributes he casually made up had already triggered a frenzy of comments.
Is this really his good luck?
Of course not.
Of course, pure luck cannot achieve this, and anyone who is simply "lucky" would find it difficult to accomplish this series of operations. However, he said that what Scaro, who was born from words, lacks the least in his life is "dramatic coincidences."
What Scario is best at is preparing everything in advance and then packaging them as "coincidences."
As an actor, in addition to the two and a half hours of performance on the screen, Bai Jinshu was fortunate enough to receive a biography written by the screenwriter for this role.
This young man, who graduated from an Ivy League school and was often labeled as "elite", "picky" and "clean-freak", unexpectedly came from the bottom of the bottom. He spent most of his childhood in slums, casinos and brothels where all kinds of people mixed together.
This means that he will be influenced by his surroundings since childhood and learn some amazing skills that ordinary people may never be able to access in their lifetime.
For example - cheating.
How to cheat at the poker table, how to divert the eyes and direct the focus, how to use body movements to create optical illusions.
Another example is theft.
Stealing is a skill he has learned since childhood. He has dynamic vision far superior to that of ordinary people, nimble fingers and rich experience in the industry.
After the coin falls, judging the front and back of the skin contact surface based on the subtle touch is a basic skill for these slum thief children; turning the coin over unconsciously in the momentary visual blind spot when opening the palm is much easier than changing poker cards in a casino under the surveillance of everyone; and finally, how to make the coin rotate is a small trick that can be mastered with practice. Practicing a thousand times is enough for the muscles to remember the angle and strength of the thumb to pop out the coin.
All these tricks, which alone would only amuse children and cheat them out of a little money, are enough to package this coincidence into something so real that it is indistinguishable from the real thing.
When Skao completed this set of moves that he used to trick children in his childhood, there was no need to look at the reactions of the audience in the live broadcast room. His years of acting career were enough to let Bai Jinshu know that after this moment, the fixed attributes of this koi had been deeply imprinted in everyone's mind.
From now on, luck can explain all his bizarre actions.
"Do you want to come again?" Bai Jinshu raised his eyebrows, moved his fingers and asked.
"What else is going on?" Lu Changfeng's jaw dropped. "This is not just good luck, is it? Brother Ao, you are cheating!"
Bai Jinshu thought for a moment and said, "You can think so."
Scarao is an irrational and weird genius whose creation is based on words and interpretation. His existence is indeed a gift from God and the screenwriter.
Lu Changfeng's face was filled with numbness after seeing the European Emperor show off: "Sometimes the gap between people is even bigger than the gap between people and dogs."
We are all human beings. Having brains is not scary, having strength is not scary, but having brains, strength and even luck is very scary.
The audience also came back to their senses at this time:
【What about those who bet on the ship earlier? They came out to invest in angel investment. 】
[Skao, my spiritual food, my new crazy knife... He is so handsome, I love him so much. ]
[Forget about betting on the ship, I am willing to join the angel investment just for this face. ]
[Heh, if he was a non-African, would you still love him? ]
[Wait... A non-African? I seem to have discovered a brilliant point...]
【Highlights +1】
【Highlights +2】
[Don't keep me in suspense, what's the highlight? ]
[The fixed attributes of the pioneers mentioned above are formed by their most persistent obsessions, and the most deeply rooted behaviors under these obsessions will become their fixed attributes, so...]
[So before he joined the Foundation... how amazing did he have to be to attract an offer from the Explorer Team?]
【ah……】
【Um……】
【provoke……】
[African beauty, I love you...]
In the unknown space, Bai Jinshu didn't know that the little trick he used to establish his character had created a strange positive effect in the live broadcast room. He was about to say something to Fatty when he heard the watch on his left wrist flashing a few times. He clicked on the task panel and the first personal private message notification appeared in the message bar.
[Dear Pioneer JS5418345, you have received 50% of the funds commission as a participant in the regular points plate of this gambling game, which has been converted into points for you. Please check it. ]
gambling?
What?
When did he join the gambling game?
A rare look of confusion appeared on Bai Jinshu's face.
The barrage of comments was full of laughter:
[The one I’m betting on is you, ah baby. 】
[I believe he is really a newcomer, his expression when he saw this message was so confused. ]
Then, the next private message notification came:
[Dear Pioneer JS5418345, 10 investors have joined your angel investment and can send you targeted exploration invitations in the future. Please go to the [Profile] page to update your exploration invitation reserve price. ]
Huh? Someone is on board?
Bai Jinshu poked it in to take a look with curiosity. He found that he had not gained any converted points by advancing the rules before, but he did get some unexpected gains by showing off his little trick.
Bai Jin was not clear about the amount of money needed for the angel investment, but the backend conversion showed that this angel investment was converted into 2,000 points. Compared with the guaranteed salary of 1,600 points for the eight members of his E-level unknown space team, joining the angel investment is not cheap, but it is not so expensive that people cannot afford it. It seems that it only serves as an admission ticket.
To get an invitation to board the ship, another bid is required to issue the invitation, and investors may even have to compete with each other in the auction. Just from this, Bai Jinshu can already get a glimpse of the top of the rankings.
High-end investors set up organizations to recruit members for their projects and spend a fortune to invite top exploration team members; behind the brilliant achievements and dazzling strength at the top of the rankings are countless investors wielding opportunities and money to create success.
His goal has never been to become one of them. What he wants to be is the undisputed top among them, the top of the list that everyone pays attention to.
Although now, looking at the backstage of the future leaderboard, he only has ten captains...
The author has something to say:
Metal: Eat your food one bite at a time and walk your journey one step at a time.
The first * is quoted from Baidu Encyclopedia. "Nervous Knife" is indeed a term used by football fans. Later, it was used in the entire sports competition world to describe athletes with unstable performance.
The second *, Super God and its antonym Super Ghost, this is a term used in LOL and DOTA. In the game, if you kill the enemy hero 8 times in a row without dying, the system will prompt that someone has become a Super God.
So if a player doesn't kill anyone in this game, doesn't have an assist, and is killed 8 times by the enemy, he will be called a super ghost by the players.
The third *, the casino is based on the fried yogurt casino on station B, where someone often gambles five rolls, and when he loses, he goes to type, and Hantang passes by with a guilty conscience holding the keyboard...
The first 20+ comments will receive a random 20 red envelope to thank the pretty ladies for their support~
