Demon Game: I Have a Dice of Fate

"I seem to have forgotten to ask what is the death card?"

On the way to the treasure house of the headquarters, Chen Qi muttered to himself belatedly.

It's really because the communication with Zhong Xingchen was too shocking and the content of information was too much.

By the time he remembered it again, the best time to communicate had passed.

He pretended to be muttering to himself at this moment, but Lin Biyun, who was sitting beside him in the co-pilot, could hear him clearly.

"What card must die?"

"How come I haven't heard of this statement?"

Lin Biyun suspected that 7 of Hearts was meant for herself, but she had never heard of this concept before.

"You don't know either?"

Chen Qi was quite puzzled. He had tested Kolos before, and as a traitor, he didn't know the card of death at all.

Unexpectedly, Lin Biyun, as a law-abiding person, didn't even know.

So where did Joe Moya Chris know about it?

If this guy hadn't died because of this, Chen Qi really thought he was being fooled.

"In the game of kings, what are the rules of the game?"

Undeterred, Chen Qi changed the way of asking.

Strictly speaking, most of Chen Qi's cognition about the game of kings comes from Jomoa Chris's notes.

He felt the need to reconfirm and update.

That guy's level is too low for him now.

······

"game rules?"

"As far as I know, there is only one real rule of the game, and that is the five-year Judgment Day, which no player can resist."

Lin Biyun's answer was very serious and affirmative, but this was very different from Chen Qi's previous cognition.

"There is only this game rule in the game?"

"Then what about the devouring fusion of cards?"

"What about the promotion and development of skills?"

If what Lin Biyun said was true, Chen Qi suddenly realized that he might be misled by the diary.

"I only know that the original [King's Game] really only had this rule, and this rule is most likely made by His Majesty the King."

"But the game ultimately requires players to participate. The game itself has no game rules, but players can create."

"Many so-called game rules are agreed upon by players."

"If you have enough strength, you can say what you want, and let other players consciously abide by it. In this way, you have created a rule of the game."

"Do you know? Captain Zhong Xingchen will die in the next round of the game."

Lin Biyun's explanation made Chen Qi thoughtful, and he immediately thought of his own situation.

Could the so-called death card be a game rule created by a powerful player?

Jomoa Chris broke his rules and that's why he was killed.

And the establishment of this rule must be related to the fusion of cards.

······

"What are the default rules in the game now?"

"Why do you know that Zhong Xingchen will die in the next round of the game?"

Chen Qi felt that he really came to the right place for this trip to the headquarters.

If you don't go deep into the player group, how can you truly participate in the game and truly understand the game of kings.

"If you still can't become an apostle after four rounds of games, you will die in the fifth round."

"This game rule has been acquiesced by His Majesty the King and the top apostles, and it is the most powerful unspoken rule in the game."

"I was still wondering why I didn't meet players who had gone through 5 rounds of the game, and this is the answer."

Lin Biyun's tone was a little low. Everything in the game was not what she thought it was before.

Zhong Xingchen took good care of her, but he didn't expect that he would die in the next round of the game.

The captain must be desperate right now!

Unless there is a miracle, let him become an apostle in this round.

But this is almost impossible, Zhong Xingchen himself gave up.

"Does the four-round game have to be an apostle?"

"Then, could the death of the Prime Minister be related to this unspoken rule?"

Although Chen Qi didn't know the deep inside story of Crozer Jick's death.

But since this unspoken rule has been acquiesced by the king and the top players, it is impossible for him to be exempted as a mere non-combat player.

No one is willing to wait for death, and neither must Crozier Gek.

He must have done something to cause the king's displeasure.

This unspoken rule has nothing to do with Chen Qi now, after all, he has just joined the game.

······

"For some other rules in the game, since the king and all the apostles have not endorsed it, the players basically go their own way."

"For example, regarding card fusion, the situation here is the most chaotic."

"The traitors have gone crazy in order to fuse the apostle's armed forces."

"Some people firmly believe that a specific combination of numbers can greatly increase the probability of fusing an apostle's armament."

"Because the cards are no different from ordinary people's poker, there are many obsessed players who put various rules of poker into the game and try."

"It's okay if it didn't succeed. If it succeeds through shit luck, the latecomers will believe it, so a new card fusion rule appears."

"Now there are three widely spread card fusion rules."

"The first type is to firmly believe in the successful experience of the predecessors."

"Apostles are also mortal. Most of the players who have obtained the core cards of the apostles in the past will go back to the old path."

"They think that's the best way to succeed."

"Second, 4 consecutive cards of the same suit, or 4 consecutive cards of different suits."

"For example, 2345 of spades, or 2 of hearts, 3 of spades, 4 of diamonds, and 5 of clubs."

"The third type is the same number cards of different suits. For example, 7 of hearts, 7 of spades, 7 of diamonds, and 7 of clubs."

"These three paths have been successfully integrated by players before, so they are the most respected by powerful players."

"Especially those old players who are stuck in the fourth round, they will desperately want to seize every chance of survival."

"The death card you mentioned is most likely a trick played by some old players."

In Lin Biyun's narration, the player's card fusion can only be performed three times.

The perfect combination of four cards can create an apostle's armament.

But this is not the pinnacle of player advancement.

After completing the arming of the apostles, the player will have to spend another Judgment Day.

If they can survive Judgment Day, players can use the card shuffling mechanism before the start of a new round of the game to re-evolve the apostle's armament.

The original apostle armament is composed of 4 cards, but with the game mechanism of card shuffling, players can transfer the ability of the apostle armament to their own core cards.

In this way, players can truly control the apostle's armed forces and become the top high-level players.

So at the beginning of each new round of the game, the number of cards is always 54.

······

"It turns out that the so-called death card is just that some players want to play monopoly."

"For example, an old player, he firmly believed in the third fusion rule, so he hunted and killed other players with the number 7 for 4 consecutive rounds. But every time he failed to achieve perfect fusion, he could not construct the apostle armament."

"In this way, the card with the number 7 is naturally regarded as a card that must die in the eyes of players who know the inside story."

"Because the new players who join the game, it is impossible to beat the old fritters who have gone through several rounds of the game."

"In the final analysis, it's just a bunch of old waste who bully newcomers!"

Chen Qi, who wanted to understand everything, suddenly understood that he was not afraid of any challenge, but only afraid of the unknown.

As long as you figure out the reason, there is a way to deal with it.

Since the other party hasn't started to make a move, it means that it hasn't entered the [Harvest Period].

In this way, he would have a chance to survive.

According to Lin Biyun's division of player strength, the person behind the scenes can only be LV4.

Because the symbol of LV5 is the birth of the Apostle Armed Forces.

The pinnacle of a player's strength is LV6.

That's the power level of the game of kings.

Chen Qi can step into LV3 at any time now, the gap between him and the opponent is far from hopeless.

Hmph, it's still unknown who will win the game.

······

Lin Biyun didn't know that she cleared up the confusion ahead for Chen Qi with just a few words.

Under her leadership, Chen Qi finally reached the treasure house of the orderly ones.

Contrary to Chen Qi's expectations, the guards here are extremely heavily guarded, even a small military camp.

"According to the routine in the novel, shouldn't an old man among the guards be arranged to watch the gate?"

It's a pity that the reality is that there are only 12 people left in the Order, and everyone is so busy that they are running around.

Who would be bored to guard a pile of useless waste paper?

If someone took the initiative to ask for a job, it must be greedy for life and afraid of death, and retreated before the battle.

The reason why so many people are guarded is just in case, to prevent this knowledge from spreading to the people.

Players want to obtain all kinds of knowledge inside, there will always be a way to do it.

They wouldn't be stupid enough to rob this place.

Lin Biyun obviously came here often, so he just swiped his face to enter.

Chen Qi wasn't nervous about entering a military important place either. To put it bluntly, it would take him less than two minutes to overturn this place.

Under the leadership of Lin Biyun, Chen Qi passed through several secret doors and finally saw the last [treasure house].

It was just an ordinary underground vault, but it was transformed into a reading room.

Chen Qi even suspected that this place was used to store some heavy weapons in the past.

"See for yourself!"

"If you want to copy and take it away, you can copy it yourself."

"I'm not interested in these, so I won't accompany you."

After saying these words, Lin Biyun turned and left.

In the empty reading room, only Chen Qi was left.

Chen Qi looked around, and found that there were not many materials on the bookshelves, and there were only dozens of file bags in total.

Chen Qi casually opened a copy, which contained some introductions about the alchemy school.

"It's a pity, it's just some general things, and most of them are even just rumors."

"Talk is better than nothing!"

This information should come from a certain player, probably something he wrote down on a whim while reading here.

According to the description in the data, the alchemy school is divided into two categories, namely the creation school and the life refining school.

Creationists pursue refining all kinds of powerful and extraordinary instruments. They are good at energy shaping and material reorganization.

As for the Life Refining School, it has always been very mysterious, rarely appearing in the circle of the other world.

It is rumored that they are good at human body alchemy, and believe that the human body has many deficiencies, which should be made up for in order to achieve a perfect life.

But that's just their publicly stated theory. According to gossip, these guys have been secretly researching how to create life.

From ancient times to the present, the faction itself has been shrouded in thick mystery.

The information in Chen Qi's hands does not have specific knowledge of the alchemy school.

But he didn't get nothing, at least he clarified a few concepts.

For example, Lingyun and Lingsu.
