After listening to their conversation, Boss Rabbit looked at Su Mingan and said with a smile: "Dear First Player, we agree with the terms of your bet. Since you think Zhai Xing will not fall, then let's bet that Zhai Xing will definitely fall."
Click.
Su Mingan raised his eyebrows and looked into Boss Rabbit's eyes: "You seem to have misunderstood."
"……?"
Their eyes all turned towards him.
"Who said I want to bet that Zhai Xing will not fall?" Su Mingan said: "What I want to bet is that [Zhai Xing will definitely fall in the end]."
Boss Rabbit was slightly stunned, but soon understood what Su Mingan meant.
...What he is doing.
Its bright red pupils trembled, and it found it a little hard to believe his determination.
The other life forms also quickly understood what he meant, and then felt a strong sense of wrongness.
Click, click, click.
Like the sound of a second hand ticking.
The young man on the platform still looked into the empty space, not looking at anyone, as if... there was something there that made him feel relaxed and happy.
But there was clearly nothing there.
He was too poor and in dire straits to offer any chips other than himself. Even the odds of winning on his side of the bet were extremely low, so...
He put himself
Bet on the enemy side.
…
"If you win, take me." The black-haired young man raised his eyebrows and slowly spread his hands. This defenseless posture made him look more like a piece of meat on a chopping board, but everyone present felt threatened.
From his slightly raised smile, from his straight back, from the confidence in his brows, it was like a thick mask covering his face, or something called strategy mode.
But everyone could see that he was not actually afraid of this kind of bet that would bring happiness to everyone else but doomed him to tragedy.
"If you lose..."
jingle.
The virtual coin was thrown upward, as if spinning on his nimble fingertips, and fell before their eyes.
Perhaps there is a higher dimension who will observe the heads and tails of the coin, trying to get a glimpse of the possible outcome of the bet, but in fact, no matter whether the coin is heads or tails, he will definitely be the winner.
An ordinary, small, insignificant human being.
“——You must let Zhai Xing go, so that it will not fall into disaster again.”
These were his last words in the bet.
The only sound in the air was his echoing, rising, smiling voice.
…
The bet he proposed was:
——If [Zhai Xing finally falls] and Su Mingan wins, the organizer must let Zhai Xing go.
——If [Zhai Xing does not fall in the end], Su Mingan loses and the organizer takes him away.
…
No matter the former or the latter, there is an answer that [Zhai Xing will definitely survive]. No matter which side wins, Zhai Xing will definitely be saved and it will not fall.
The only thing that has changed is whether Su Mingan will be taken away.
Gao Wei's promise is not golden words. A promise like "I'll let Zhai Xing go if you take him away" is ineffective. Only a bet like this is valid.
And this is the "must win" bet proposed by Su Mingan.
From the perspective of the organizers, they have a high probability of winning the bet and taking him away, so of course they will agree to the bet - this is a "must-win bet" for humans, and the organizers cannot refuse even as enemies, and they cannot resist this temptation.
Must accept.
It must be established.
Zhai Xing must survive.
Three inevitabilities.
——This is the content of the bet that Su Mingan had thought of in his mind before stepping into this ancient Greek philosophical debate stage.
They will not refuse.
They couldn't refuse.
His request was at their lowest bottom line, but also gave them great hope. Even though they knew his goal, they were willing to accept the bet.
The only drawback is that compared to Su Mingan betting on [Zhai Xing did not fall in the end], he is now betting on [Zhai Xing fell in the end], that is to say, for him, there will no longer be the best of both worlds. If Zhai Xing does not fall, everyone lives happily, and he will be taken away, not belonging to the happiness he earned with his own hands. If Zhai Xing falls, in order to keep Zhai Xing alive for a long time, he will still move up -
He cut off his own path back with his own hands.
Push the "king general" to the front line.
…
Click.
The chess player dropped his last chess piece, pointing it at the enemy's king.
But now,
The twelve players no longer had any chance to fight back.
…
"(A bet I can't refuse.)" said the mechanical voice.
"(There is no loss for us, and there is even a high probability of getting him. This is a bet we cannot refuse. The moment he proposed it, he had already won.)" said the hoarse voice.
"(I don't understand why someone can do this. What's good about that broken world.)" A childish voice.
"(You have no past, and no homeland, so you can't understand.)" Dieying's voice became much lower, and the playfulness on his face disappeared, leaving only disappointment. He stared at Su Mingan blankly, not knowing whether he was looking at Su Mingan, or looking at someone else through Su Mingan... He had seen this similar posture once before. What was left behind that time was Asa's tragedy, and it was also the origin of his wandering. Will there be any changes this time?
"(It turns out that idealists will also succumb. I thought he would choose the best of both worlds, such as saving Zhai Xing and keeping him - doesn't he always like to stand in front of the tram? He wants to save both sides and keep both sides. What made him choose to save only one side this time?)" said Boss Rabbit.
