A dimensional journey starting from the Dragon Clan

Chapter 222 215. Kill me to cheer you up

"We are going to see the janitor now." Gao Mi said, "You will see him soon."

"Then tell me first, the rules here."

Lu Mingfei took out the silver revolver hidden in his waist, took out the bullets from his pocket, and started loading as if nothing had happened. He didn't know how his senior brother had such a thing. Loading the bullets was too slow and it was inconvenient at all.

"..."

The people present were a little embarrassed when they saw Lu Mingfei's actions, especially Zhao Menghua, who was trembling. He couldn't even figure out where Lu Mingfei got the gun from! Is the United States so dangerous that even students must carry guns at all times to ensure their own safety?

"Brother, is this fight inevitable?" Gao Mi asked cautiously. He could tell that the bullet Lu Mingfei shot was the academy's alchemy bullet. Can this thing deal with the gatekeeper? By the way, how did this guy bring the gun back to China? Domestic gun control is very strict, but I didn’t expect that a fish slipped through the net here!

"Ah no," Lu Mingfei shook his head, "I'm just in case, I'll wait and see whether to fight or not. If the opponent is too strong, I won't rush in to torture him."

"Is this... like this?" Gao Mi was dubious. He sighed and began to explain the rules here to Lu Mingfei.

"The characteristic of this type of alchemical maze is that there must be a rule to escape from here. If there is an entrance, there must be an exit. This is the iron rule of creating an alchemical maze. Even the gatekeeper cannot violate it, just like the Sphinx. The riddle posed to Oedipus is also a labyrinth constructed using alchemy, but using 'language' as the material. If Oedipus answers the riddle, the Sphinx will inevitably fall off the cliff and die. Even if it is more powerful than Oedipus, it cannot break the rules.”

"This sounds quite interesting." Lu Mingfei mused. He thought that the person who would customize such rules was either a fool or the person who made the rules was not a 'gatekeeper' at all. It was a rule that he could not even break. Isn't that a stumbling block for yourself?

He felt that the rules here were probably not set by the 'gatekeeper', but by the real owner here.

"So how do you win?"

"Texas Hold'em." Gao Mi said, "If you win all the chips of the gatekeeper, you can leave or kill it. Those who lose all their bets will return to this train and be trapped here forever."

"Haven't you tried killing him?" Lu Mingfei asked.

"Of course I tried it, from the beginning." Wan Boqian said.

"I see you are not injured?"

"It's not injured because it won't fight back at all." Gao Mi shook his head, "No matter how you attack it, it won't fight back, but that thing can't be killed, otherwise we wouldn't have been trapped here for so long. "

"Can't it be killed?" Lu Mingfei was confused, "You just said that one of the ways to leave was 'kill it'..."

"You will understand once you have seen it." Gao Mi sighed helplessly, "Now the train is heading towards it, there is still some time, can you play Texas Hold'em?"

"Yes." Lu Mingfei nodded, "But what's the bet? I don't have any money with me. Can I pay by credit card here?"

"It's not money."

The eyes of the three people suddenly filled with despair, as if they remembered something bad.

"Your bet is your loneliness." Wan Boqian said softly, "As the train continues to advance, your bet will increase. Here, you will never die, you will be alone forever, and your loneliness And despair, that’s the stakes.”

"This bet is really a bad idea." Lu Mingfei suddenly felt a little funny. Immortality should be something that many people dream of, but here it is like a joke.

The subway kept moving forward. After a long time, the speed gradually slowed down. The train stopped on the platform. This was a station that shouldn't exist. The platform that looked extremely old was covered with uneven cement floors, and overgrown trees stuck to the corners. The tiles were covered with moss, and the dust on the walls had almost fallen off. It looked like it was in disrepair.

The train door opened.

The four people in the car walked towards the door, but the other three seemed reluctant to face the so-called 'gatekeeper'. They even walked much slower, and they seemed to be tortured.

Lu Mingfei was walking at the front. As soon as he reached the door, he seemed to remember something and suddenly turned to Zhao Menghua and said, "Chen Wenwen is very worried about you. I am here just to save you."

After saying that, Lu Mingfei stepped out of the carriage, and what he saw at first glance were a few large characters printed above the platform, 'Fushouling Station'. The red paint on the characters looked a little mottled, but the bright red was still shocking. There was also the date '1977' next to it, which made Lu Mingfei feel as if he had traveled through time and space and came here.

He finally understood why Gao Mi said they couldn't kill the 'gatekeeper'.

It is indeed difficult.

Looking at the monster in front of him, Lu Mingfei felt a little numb.

Countless sickles and weasels were entrenched on the ceiling of the platform. A dark shadow fell. It rolled in the air and let out a piercing scream. Countless sickles and weasels surrounded it and flew below it to hold it up, just like carrying a king. Coffin.

The shadow spread its wings and landed slowly. Lu Mingfei finally saw clearly. This was a guy slightly larger than an adult, but the key was that it had nine heads!

It was a monster with nine heads, a sickle queen. Its nine heads were bent left and right, and its spine was twisted, like nine snakes coiled together.

"Does... to kill it, do I have to chop off 9 heads at the same time?" Lu Mingfei asked in a low voice.

None of the others spoke, except Gao Mi who nodded helplessly.

Well, this is indeed not what they can do. Even if the 'gatekeeper' doesn't fight back, they can't chop off 9 heads at the same time, not to mention they don't even have a decent knife in their hands.

"Oh... let's get started."

The four people sat down around the 'gatekeeper' as if they were resigned to their fate. In the gambling game, perhaps it should be called the 'dealer'. Although it is a female, it is a pity that it is not a beauty.

The nine croupiers had a pair of terrifying golden pupils on their heads. They scanned every guest present, and then threw the chips they had accumulated in front of them.

In front of Lu Mingfei was an iron bottle cap with the words "Arctic Ocean" printed on it. It was an ancient orange soda bottle cap.

A bunch of dark gold coins were thrown in front of everyone else. In addition to coins, Zhao Menghua even had a watch in front of him. It seemed that his loneliness was enough for him to buy m watches.

"That's it?" Lu Mingfei looked at the lonely bottle cap in front of him. He really looked lonely. Didn't he even have a bargaining chip to be paired up?

"A bottle cap from Arctic Ocean is probably worth 1,000 coins. Your loneliness..." Gao Mi couldn't continue. The three of them looked at Lu Mingfei with some pity. Isn't this child an orphan?

"Is it really the 'Arctic Ocean'?" Lu Mingfei threw the bottle cap in his hand and smiled miserably. His loneliness was like there was so much water in the Arctic Ocean. But according to the rules here, he has to win more 'solitude' from the dealer before he can leave here. What does this count?

'You win, but you have to leave alone. ’ I obviously wanted to be a winner, but in the end I ended up looking like a loser.

"Mr. Dealer, can I ask a question?" Lu Mingfei looked at the monster in front of him. He couldn't think of any adjectives except ugly, because the monster in front of him was not scary. It might scare ordinary people. Oh no, just Even Zhao Menghua is quite calm now.

"Okay." The dealer's nine heads said in unison, their voices hoarse and overlapping, sounding a little scary, like echoes from the abyss.

"How can I get out?"

"Beat me."

"Can you let me go?"

"no."

"Otherwise, let's discuss it. You see, the chips I have here are so valuable. Is it enough to buy my life?" Lu Mingfei asked jokingly.

"Fearless words will only waste your life."

"But you won't die here." Lu Mingfei shrugged indifferently.

"When people are killed, they will die. Even the rules here cannot be changed. The rules here are just to prevent you from starving to death and thirsting to death. However, there are also people who cannot bear the loneliness and choose to commit suicide. You can also try it. "The dealer answered the questions very dutifully.

"Oh~ I see." Lu Mingfei stood up, "If someone is killed, he will die. In other words, you will kill here, right?"

"...Yes." The dealer's tone hesitated.

"I asked about the way out before. Why did you specifically rule it out and kill you?"

"No one wants to die." The dealer stated this simple truth in a calm tone.

"You are just a chess piece placed here, but you are also afraid of death?" Lu Mingfei came to the dealer and looked at him in surprise.

"Let the gambling begin." The croupier stopped answering his question.

"Don't worry," Lu Mingfei closed one eye, raised the bottle cap in his hand, and looked at it carefully. He aimed at the dealer in front of him, as if he would shout "railgun" in his next sentence. It's a pity that he doesn't seem to know the special move. Otherwise, if there are a bunch of coins here, there's no need to worry about not being able to hit 9 heads.

"Last question," Lu Mingfei threw away the bottle cap, "You can't break the rules here, right?"

"right."

"Then, I win."

With a clang, the bottle cap fell on the gambling table, and the revolver in Lu Mingfei's hand pressed against his body.

"???"

Everyone looked at him in confusion, including the dealer, although he couldn't express shock on his face.

"Lu...Lu Mingfei, don't let your mind wander..." Zhao Menghua said.

"Yes, junior brother, you don't have to prove your integrity like this..."

"Shut up."

Lu Mingfei's cold voice interrupted their words. These people's nonsense would affect his operations.

"Do you dare to play? Mr. Dealer." Lu Mingfei pointed at the 'Arctic Ocean' bottle cap thrown on the gaming table, "Gamble, I'll show my hand!"

"I don't understand why you can beat me." The croupier put a chip on the gaming table, "I don't need to fight you head-on. This chip is enough to win all your bets."

"Don't worry, don't I want to prove it to you?"

Lu Mingfei grinned.

He straightened the wrinkled round-neck T-shirt, but the posture was as if he was wearing his expensive evening gown. Coupled with the posture of holding the muzzle of the gun on his chest, it was as if he was arranging his own remains. .

"boom!"

With a gunshot, Lu Mingfei fell to the ground, dark red blood flowing out of his body.

"Stupid." There was a hint of ridicule in the croupier's voice. He thought this human being was going to do something, but in the end it was just a boring struggle unwilling to succumb to fate. Death might be a relief for such a person.

"Ah!" Wan Boqian screamed and covered her mouth.

"He, he, he... he is dead?" Zhao Menghua covered his eyes and was afraid to look directly. He was a person who would faint from injections. When had he ever seen such a bloody scene?

"Why bother..." Gao Mi couldn't bear it and was going to collect Lu Mingfei's body.

"Cough cough... cough cough..."

There was a cough on the ground, and Gao Mi's outstretched hand was grabbed by Lu Mingfei.

"Fake corpse!" Zhao Menghua looked at Lu Mingfei who suddenly opened his eyes and exclaimed.

"I told you," Lu Mingfei's voice was hoarse, "Shut up."

He helped Gao Mi stand up, feeling very nervous. Fortunately, I had the spirit of speech, otherwise the game would have been over. He originally wanted to shoot himself in the head, but after thinking about it, he realized that if his brain exploded, he would be alive. What if I don’t come over? In the end, I chose to use it against the body, but it seemed that the effect of my words and spirits was pretty good.

"Ah, ah, I feel so comfortable all over." Lu Mingfei pretended to twist his neck and came to the dealer, staring at him with surprised eyes.

The gun in his hand was pressed against the dealer's head.

"As I said, I won." Lu Mingfei said softly, "Because here, I am greater than the rules."

"What!" The dealer's eyes showed confusion, "I don't know how you came back to life, but you still can't kill me."

The croupier was not surprised.

"boom!"

There was a gunshot.

"The first one." Lu Mingfei looked at its hanging head, which had been pierced by alchemy bullets, expressionlessly, then turned to look at the dealer's other heads.

He had only one purpose in doing this, which was to prove that this gun was really lethal.

"I said, here, I am greater than the rules." Lu Mingfei looked at it indifferently.

"No, your revolver has a maximum of 6 bullets, and you have already used two of them." The croupier's voice was low.

"How do you know I only have six bullets?" Lu Mingfei sneered, "Or did you see me loading the bullet?"

"..." The dealer was silent.

"Next, I will be in charge, and now I have the final say here." Lu Mingfei put the gun on its head again, "You said 'people will die if they are killed', but I said I will not die. Do you believe it? ?"

"..." There was an imperceptible fear in the dealer's eyes. The guy in front of him seemed to have really violated the rules. No, what he violated was not the rules here, but the 'truth' of this world. This guy was not only Greater than the rules here, he even disobeyed the laws of the world.

"Now, I said I can kill you, do you believe it?" Lu Mingfei leaned into its ear, "This gun can't kill me, but you can try, can I kill you with this gun?"

"Can I take this as a threat?" The croupier stared into Lu Mingfei's eyes.
