I have a magic dice of destiny

Chapter 35 The Origin of the Game

“Swish, swish, swish!

The five metal strings rotated rapidly, and the earth was directly cut into dirt, slowly sinking downwards.

Soon, a large circular pit appeared on the street, and Chen Qi opened a passage to the underground.

Although he really didn't want to get into the sewer, Chen Qi had to take it upon himself to drag the big black dog out just to be on the safe side.

Perhaps it was because he had been away from the slums for so long and felt the familiar atmosphere again, it was really difficult for Chen Qi to adapt.

"Whoa, whoa!"

Chen Qi walked through the sewers and quickly found the big black dog paralyzed on the ground.

"Woof woof!"

The big black dog stared at Chen Qi with a horrified expression, seeming to recognize his identity.

"Just scream, no one will come to save you even if your throat is broken!"

Chen Qi pulled the big black dog's horn shamelessly, and it turned out to be true.

The big black dog's eyes were full of anger, but except for its head, its body was completely unable to move.

"We are old acquaintances, so don't talk nonsense!"

"If you cooperate with me honestly and do a few experiments, I will let you go!"

While Chen Qi was teasing Gouzi, he carefully sensed the changes in the puppet's threads.

Although the big black dog didn't understand what the human was saying, it didn't stop him from feeling the undisguised malice.

At the critical moment, it tried to reconcile the two forces in its body according to its past instincts.

Just as the two forces were about to reach balance again, that hateful source of interference appeared again.

Under Chen Qi's control, Gouzi vomited blood this time and became completely depressed.

"For a dog, you don't understand the tricks of bitterness."

Chen Qi retracted the puppet thread with satisfaction. The conflict in Gouzi's body would never calm down for four or five days.

At this stage, it is just a dog on the chopping board, only half a step away from becoming a mat.

"Woo!"

The big black dog's eyes were full of pleading, but unfortunately Chen Qi turned a blind eye.

He didn't forget that when they first met, the dog stared at him with his mouth full of barks.

If it weren't for the fact that dog blood is poisonous, Chen Qi would have taken off one of its legs and tasted it.

"Leitlie, you can come down and drag the dog!"

Now that the dog has completely lost its ability to resist, Chen Qi doesn't want to carry it out by himself.

After giving orders to the people on the ground, Chen Qi looked around boredly.

Although the passage was very dark, Chen Qi adjusted the focus of his pupils at will, and his vision became brighter.

At this time, Chen Qi had already practiced Kestrel Boxing to the master level.

The "witness" technique possessed by the fighting master was modified by Chen Qi and became his unique ability.

Now, even if he doesn't use his [Physical Control] ability, he can still adjust his vision at will and achieve [Distance] and [Dark Vision].

Unfortunately, the dynamic capture capability requires higher eye muscle control, so we can only wait for Kestrel Fist to be upgraded to the master level.

······

"This seems to be the dog's lair?"

The sewer was surprisingly clean, and Chen Qi even found a doghouse not far away.

The kennel is built with discarded clothing and sofas from humans. From an artistic point of view, it must have been built by the dog himself.

Chen Qi stole the doghouse very unkindly, but there was no surprise.

This dog is so Buddhist that he can't even bear to pick up a bone from his nest.

Nothing but dog hair.

"Huh?"

Chen Qi glanced at the wall next to the kennel and saw some scratches.

This seemed to be the place where dogs polished their claws, but Chen Qi was keen to find the handwriting left by humans in those scratches.

This moment attracted Chen Qi's attention.

"I hate it, I hate it so much, that bastard Gutav lied to us!"

This text seemed to have been carved on the wall with fingers. The writing was not full of hatred, but also contained dark blood stains.

“Interesting, it’s really a surprise!”

The engraving was in the common language of mankind. After identifying the three words [Gutav], Chen Qi knew that he had won the jackpot today.

"Why? Why is it different from what was promised?"

"After that game started running, we did gain [position] and [talent], but what we lost was life span."

"Hate, why are we aging so fast? And that bastard Gutav is regaining his youth."

"Everything is exactly what Moliqi said, this is a trap!"

"Gutav gained immortality, and we became abandoned children!"

"Hate, hate, hate, why can't I kill him? The Blue Taro Kingdom will be destroyed!"

At the end of the carving, you can even vaguely see the bone residue remaining in it, which shows how deeply the person who wrote the last words hated it.

"Although I don't know who you are, I think you should be the hero who supported Gutafu to ascend the throne, and the first generation player of "Game of Kings"!"

This is information that is easy to guess, especially after Chen Qi obtained "that manuscript."

The man in the sewer probably survived the bloody coup by luck, but for some reason he still died here.

The bloody coup occurred 10 years after Gutav ascended the throne, which is exactly more than 30 years ago, combined with the time when the "Dog of Death" appeared.

Chen Qi could easily come to the conclusion that the big black dog mutated after eating this first-generation player.

"He" is the source of the birth of the Dog of Death!

······

However, Chen Qi's most important gain was not to find out the "big black dog"'s background, but to know the truth about the "bloody coup".

Through the last words of this first-generation player, Chen Qi can draw two conclusions.

First, before the birth of "King's Game", or before Gutav ascended the throne, he was just a mortal, otherwise he would not need to win over other people's support.

As for his bargaining chip to win over his men, in addition to power and money, he should also have [player qualifications].

If the gossip obtained by Club 10 is true and "Game of Kings" was originally just a production and management game, then the [Talents] possessed by the first-generation players will most likely be some kind of [Professional] bonus.

For example, the [Prime Minister] card has a [Talent] that is "good at coordinating and handling various affairs."

Chen Qi also got a clear answer to this point from Plum Blossom 10.

It was also because he asked too many questions that the latter almost blocked him.

It can be seen that before "Game of Kings" was upgraded to a combat game, [players] had no [superpowers] at all.

And this is also in line with another speculation of Chen Qi!

That is, the running of the game requires energy!

The [initial] source of energy is most likely to come from players.

That's why the first-generation players had their lifespan taken away, so they only had talents, not superpowers.

This is because the original "King's Game" was still very weak and needed "subjects to serve the king."

And this may be the "hidden game rules" that Gutav did not clearly inform [first-generation players]!

Once the game is running stably and covers the entire "Blue Taro Country", the energy to maintain the game's operation will already be the burden of all citizens.

The games at that time were already very powerful, and then [superpowers] appeared.

As for the second conclusion Chen Qi came to, it is really a bit "shocking!"

The person who left the last words believed that Gutafu gained immortality, but Chen Qi guessed how Gutafu gained immortality.

Gutav bound "The King's Game" to the Blue Taro Kingdom, and bound the "King" to himself.

As long as the monarchy of the Blue Taro Kingdom does not perish, then "Game of Kings" will continue to run, and the [King] will always be Gutav.

In this way, Gutav can live forever, 100 years, 200 years, 300 years, 500 years...

This is probably the "original intention" of 68-year-old Gutav in creating this game.

Although he didn't know how he did it, Chen Qi was now certain that the person who created "Game of Kings" could only be a human being.

Demons, beings in myths and legends, are not greedy for a mere few hundred years of life!
