Chapter 315 I Don’t Have a Mother
Although the three of them didn't speak, Bai Wei knew that they all had similar thoughts in their minds, that is, when it came to Visas' body parts, were they considering their personal interests or the interests of the collective, that is, the interests of their respective churches?
Of course, the result is very clear. After all, if it is the latter, then it is impossible that Bai Wei's biggest trump card of Taoyuan Township has not been exposed to the eyes of the eight major churches until now.
Bai Wei's gaze kept wandering over the three phantoms, and at the same time, based on the plot settings in the game, he thought about what they wanted and what they were afraid of at the moment.
Rocky was a simple guy, he was just greedy, he wanted new body parts. He didn't care which one it was... oh, maybe except the eye, because the eye would definitely be taken back by the Pope of Rhine. Rhine knew that eye too well, even if Rocky got it, he couldn't hide it, so he should want any body part except the eye.
But at the same time, he was extremely cautious, or...cowardly. He was afraid that if he made a big mistake, the Pope of the Rhine would not forgive him, so once he found that things were impossible, he would immediately retreat to preserve his position and the existing body parts.
Therefore, we need to create an environment for this guy where he can get a big reward by taking a risk, and even if he fails, the consequences will not be too serious, so that he can boldly follow up.
Isaiah is different. What this old guy wants is very clear, that is, the other eye, which is far more than his loyalty to the Star Relic Church. For this, he can take higher risks and costs than Rocky. As long as the left eye is used as bait, he will be easily hooked. Of course, with this guy's strength, it is not certain who is the fish and who is the bait after being caught, so you must be cautious when dealing with him.
Finally, there is the Lady Ring Finger. Bai Wei still doesn't know her name, and knows the least about the Contract Land behind her. No one knows what she and the Contract Land want, but judging from the fact that the Contract Land doesn't know about the existence of Taoyuan Township, at least she is not a devout believer who only wants to seal Visas.
"Well, time in Taoyuan Township is very precious." Bai Wei tapped his fingers lightly on the stone table, drawing the attention of the three people back, and said with a smile, "Instead of being bored here, why not do something more meaningful."
Hearing this, Rocky immediately became excited: "What do you mean, playing cards or dice?"
My goodness, he felt like something was missing at the last corpse party. He didn’t think of it at the time, but after it was over, he suddenly realized that the important part of playing cards was missing.
How could he tolerate this? He had been practicing for a long time, waiting for another big move to beat this damn hand-eye.
Unfortunately, Rocky's warm response was met with a cold shoulder. Bai Wei smiled and shook his head: "Although I also want to play such a game, how can I put it? At such a critical juncture, it is better not to add too much uncertainty, so as not to give the guy 'Tongue' an opportunity. So why don't we skip those and go straight to a more honest transaction?"
"Trade? What trade?"
"What else can be traded in Taoyuan Township?" Bai Wei shrugged. "It's nothing more than the rules and information between each other. Rules for rules, information for information, it's that simple. Well... since Mr. Thumb wants to play cards, let's do it in the form of a game like before."
As he spoke, Bai Wei snapped his fingers, and two floating cards appeared in front of everyone present, one with "rules" written on it, and the other with "information" written on it.
"The rules of the game are very simple. Each of us can choose a card, either 'rules' or 'information', just like this." Bai Wei picked up the floating rule card and held it in his hand for a while. An eye pattern appeared on the card. "This means that I am willing to use the rules of my left eye in the transaction. The same goes for you. You can either use information or rules, or both. In the end, you can exchange cards. It's all voluntary. How about it, simple?"
The three of them didn't say anything, but fell into deep thought.
On the surface, this is indeed a simple game, but if you use your brain a little, you will know that it is not simple.
Because at this point in time, it is more of a "preparation before hunting" than a game, and the target of the hunt is naturally the "tongue" of the Nameless Town.
There is no doubt that the "tongue" with three body parts is a powerful target and it is not easy to get it.
So what can we do to increase the success rate of hunting?
That naturally means getting more extra power and information, but at the same time, you must also avoid losing too much power and information that originally belonged to you.
For example, if the information obtained is the specific position of the "tongue" at the moment, but the information lost is one's own identity, then it would be a big loss.
But if the information card you take out is irrelevant, why would the other party want to trade with you?
The same goes for rule cards. How can you ensure that the other party’s rules are better than yours?
The questions that came up in an instant made Rocky feel that his brain was about to overload, and even made him miss playing cards. If it was just playing cards, there wouldn't be so much gambling involved.
"Well, have you thought it through?" Bai Wei said with a smile, "If you have, we can start."
"I have a question." Isaiah suddenly said, "After trading the rules, will I no longer be able to use them?"
Rocky has a say on this issue, after all, he lost to Bai Wei twice in a row. But before he could say anything, Bai Wei shook his head slowly: "No, no, no, this time is different. After the rules are traded, you can still use them in your daily life, but if the other party wants to use them, priority will fall to his side first, and the cost will be borne by you. Of course, the same is true in reverse."
After hearing what Bai Wei said, Rocky slammed the table after a brief moment of shock: "Why the hell is it different from before? Why couldn't I use it before?!"
"Haha, it was a bet before, but now it's a deal." Bai Wei replied with a smile, "The cost of the bet is naturally higher, while the content of the deal is always lighter. And you know, in the process of improving the rules, there will always be sacrifices."
Just sacrifice it on me alone, right?!
Rocky gritted his teeth.
Bai Wei's explanation made Isaiah and Diana feel a little relieved.
If the rules that were lent out were invalid, then they would never trade them. Because one of them had the starry sea in his eyes, and the other had hundreds of contractors under his control, so they couldn't accept the invalidation.
In this case, it is not impossible for them to trade their own rules.
It just depends... on what you can get.
They all looked at Bai Wei at the same time.
This deal was more of a deal between them and Bai Wei than a deal between them, because Bai Wei had the most cards in his hand.
In other words, he is still the real "dealer" in this game.
Under the gaze of the three people, Bai Wei slowly raised his hand, pinched out a card out of thin air, and then printed the middle finger icon on it.
Then, three cards floated in front of Bai Wei, namely "Eye", "Middle Finger" and one "Information".
Under his leadership, the remaining three people also completed filling in their own rule cards and information cards.
"One more thing to add, the transaction of information cards will first enter the 'private chat' state, and each party will reveal the general information before deciding whether to trade." Bai Wei snapped his fingers, "Okay, the explanation is complete. Under the witness of Taoyuan Township, we must not lie. Well, who will start first?"
As soon as Bai Wei finished speaking, Rocky jumped out impatiently: "I'll do it!"
He has already understood that whoever strikes first at this time will really win. After all, there is only one card, and if it is chosen by someone else, it will be gone, so he must not fall behind.
So Rocky took his [Disturbance] card, and then looked back at Bai Wei's three cards.
Which one should I choose?
First, eliminate the information card, and the main thing is to choose [Watch] or [Terminate]... Damn, if you think about it carefully, these two things should have belonged to Rhine.
It’s all because of that damn one-eyed guy!
…But then again, what does it feel like to be so intoxicated by the gaze of that one-eyed man?
When Rocky thought of this, he felt itchy.
In the "Book of Taboo", the left eye is ranked much higher than the left middle finger, so...
"I choose the eyes." Rocky said without hesitation, "Give it to me."
"Sorry, no change."
Rocky was stunned: "Not changing?"
"Yes." Bai Wei said with a smile, "Mr. Thumb, have you forgotten that I have already played your [Disturbance] twice, and it is really not new anymore, so I will not change it."
Rocky was stunned.
What the hell is this devilish statement?!
Are you fucking tired of playing? ! !
At this moment, the memory of past humiliation suddenly jumped into Rocky's mind, reminding him of the time more than ten years ago when he was still a young priest. He tried hard to please the priest only to find that the guy had found someone younger. His teeth were almost broken.
No, no, you can't get angry.
Rocky took several deep breaths and forced himself to calm down.
"Then let's [Terminate]." He had no choice but to settle for the next best option.
"Sorry, I won't change it either."
"you!!!"
"Okay, Mr. Thumb." Bai Wei raised his hand to stop Rocky's impending roar. "To be honest, your cards really have no value to me. Why don't you wait aside for a while until I finish my transaction with Miss Right Eye and Miss Ring Finger?"
Rocky was so angry that his lungs were about to explode.
The bastard didn't even bother to read what his message sign was!
Bai Wei naturally didn't care about Rocky's feelings, but turned to look at Isaiah and Diana. He pretended to be in deep thought and wandered between the two for a while, and finally set his eyes on Isaiah.
"The left and right eyes are still attracted to each other." Bai Wei said with a smile, "After I got this eye, I feel that I really can't refuse the other eye. What do you think?"
"Yes, I feel the same as you." Isaiah stroked his right eye and said with emotion, "This eye allows me to see very far. My lifelong wish is to see another eye. I thought I would take this regret to the grave, but fortunately I met you."
The conversation between Isaiah and Bai Wei made Diana's heart sink, but she didn't seem too surprised.
Left Eye and Right Eye chose to trade with each other. In that case, she didn't need to play her [Contract] card.
Putting aside the unknown information, eyes and fingers, only eyes can attract Diana. Although the rules of the middle finger are also very powerful, it is not so useful for her who has the [Contract]. At least it is not enough for Diana to be willing to expose the specific rules of the [Contract]. This is one of the biggest secrets of the "Land of Contract".
As for her information card, it was the preset meeting place of the eight major churches, and Diana would not take it out to exchange for [Termination].
So she just watched this transaction.
Just as Diana made her decision, she heard Isaiah sigh heavily, "Well, I really can't refuse this."
An eye-for-an-eye deal reached?
Diana and Rocky looked over and their eyes widened instantly.
Because what Isaiah took was not the [Attention] card, but... an information card!
But the card Bai Wei took was the card for his right eye!
What's going on?! The hand-eye exchanged a piece of information for the right eye's rules?!
What is that message?!
Before the two could react, Bai Wei handed the [Attention] card for his left eye to Diana.
"Ms. Ring Finger." Bai Wei stared at Diana with his eyes that seemed to see through everything, and then chuckled and said, "Are you willing to exchange my eyes for yours?"
Diana fell silent.
The [Contemplate] card was right in front of her, so she had to temporarily give up thinking about what information her hands and eyes had given that would make Isaiah give up [Contemplate].
Could it be...
Her eyes lingered on Bai Wei and Isaiah for a moment, and she gradually formed some guesses.
If that's the case, these two guys are really crazy.
Diana probably understood, but she didn't say it out loud. After thinking for a while, she said, "I'm only willing to exchange it with the 'information card'."
Then she "privately chatted" Bai Wei with the general content of the information board.
Bai Wei also readily chose to agree, so the information card representing the meeting place fell into Bai Wei's hands, and the viewing card that could look up at the sky came to Diana.
Finally, only Rocky was left.
Unlike Diana, Rocky was still in a state of confusion.
What the hell?! What information did the hand-eye guy use to take away the right eye?!
What did I get from Miss Ring Finger in exchange for my left eye? !
Damn it, why do you guys have so many calculations? ! And I know nothing? !
Take me with you, bastard!
Rocky is really going to get mad.
...Forget it, at least there is still an [End].
As long as you get [Terminate], your chances of winning will increase significantly even if you really fight that "tongue".
Thinking of this, Rocky sat up straight and prepared to make the final deal.
Then, he heard a snap of fingers.
"Okay, today's corpse party ends here." Bai Wei said with a smile, "See you next time, corpse friends...if you are not killed by the tongue."
Rocky was stunned. Before he could say anything, the next second, he was back in his room, lying naked on the bed with the handsome little priest lying on top of him.
He shouted angrily.
"Hands and eyes! I'll fuck you!"
The little priest who was sleeping with him was instantly woken up by the shock, and then he said fearfully.
"Sorry, Your Excellency the Bishop...I don't have a mother."
