Chapter 89: Chapter 88 Gambling Ghost's ability: Take a Gamble [Request for Monthly Pass]
Soon, half an hour had passed.
Strangely, the fourth Super Pig had still not arrived.
Mu Rufeng's expression was not looking good at that moment.
If the Super Pigs were always this late, then his “get stronger by killing monsters” cheat could not fulfill its function.
But even so, Mu Rufeng was still powerless.
Because he could not go out.
It was not possible for him to go from the teleportation portal to another area and then kill indiscriminately, right?
He was only a Level 1 now, and although he had quite a few soul banknotes, he was not yet at that invincible level.
With a sigh, Mu Rufeng could only continue to wait here.
However, he was still somewhat puzzled.
That was regarding the criteria for clearing the instance, which had not yet been announced.
There was absolutely no hint.
Inside the piggery.
Feeder Tang Hao, cleaner Luo Jing, and Fattening Staff Mei Xizi were all frowning as they watched ahead.
“Ow ow~~!”
The intense howling resonated throughout the piggery.
It was a three-meter-tall Super Pig.
Confined in a cage, guarded by three Abnormals together with Security Guard Liu Hao.
They each held an electric baton, extending it into the cage through the gaps.
Every time the electric baton touched the Super Pig, a current flashed, and the Super Pig would howl in pain.
“It's no use, Manager Bai. This pig is too strong; our electric batons can't knock him out,” one of the Abnormals, who had pig ears, said to a tall Abnormal beside him.
This Manager Bai was the same Abnormal who had brought them here for the job.
“The ones last night could be knocked out, so this shouldn't be ineffective; keep shocking,” Manager Bai said.
“Yes.”
The two Abnormals responded, continuing to shock the Super Pig with electric batons.
“Hm? New guy, are you slacking off?” Manager Bai looked toward Liu Hao.
Upon hearing this, Liu Hao hurriedly said, “Manager Bai, you intend to send this pig to the slaughterhouse, right?”
“This pig's skin is thick and its meat tough; ordinary shocks are useless now, but I have a way to make it obediently go to the slaughterhouse.”
“Hm? You have a way? Just with you, a mere Level 2 Contractor?”
Before Manager Bai could speak, an Abnormal nearby sneered.
“Heh, the two of us are Level 3 Evil Ghosts, and we dare not claim we can handle it. What about you? Or is it that demon on you?” another Abnormal said with a cold laugh.
Upon hearing this, ghost qi inside Liu Hao stirred chaotically.
It wasn't that Liu Hao was provoked, but the Contract Demon within him was.
Liu Hao murmured something to his Contract Demon, then regained his composure.
“Just because you can't, doesn't mean I can't. Manager Bai, how about you let me try?” Liu Hao looked at Manager Bai.
“If you want to try, I don't mind, but first I must tell you, in our pig farm, pigs can only be slaughtered in the slaughterhouse.”
“Apart from the slaughterhouse, Super Pigs are protected by the Rule, immune to damage, only electric shock can knock them out.”
“Although it's just a pig, its strength and size are comparable to that of a Level 4 Evil Ghost,” Manager Bai said.
“Don't worry, Manager Bai, I'm pretty confident,” Liu Hao said, smiling and patting his chest.
“Hey, that's really overreaching.”
“That's not called overreaching; that's called seeking your own death.”
The two mocking Abnormals by the side said.
Ignoring them, Manager Bai turned to Liu Hao, “Then I'll leave it to you.”
“Thank you for the opportunity, Manager Bai,” Liu Hao said with a smile, stepping forward to stand in front of the cage.
At this moment, Manager Bai turned his gaze toward Mei Xizi and the others in the distance.
“What are you standing there for? Trying to slack off? Get back to work now,” Manager Bai shouted.
Hearing this, the three did not dare to reply, and immediately went back to their tasks.
There wasn't only one Super Pig in the piggery, but rather a whole hundred pigs.
Of course, not all of the pigs were mature enough to be sent to the slaughterhouse.
Their work was not easy.
They were constantly mixing feed, serving food, and cleaning up pig manure, among other tasks.
Excluding Mu Rufeng, the most relaxed one was definitely Liu Hao, the Security Guard.
With nothing to do, he patrolled here and there.
Just now, while patrolling the piggery, he was called by Manager Bai to help shock the Super Pig with electric batons.
“Does this pig have a name?” Liu Hao suddenly asked Manager Bai.
“A name? A pig, of course, doesn't have a name. Why do you ask?” an annoyed Abnormal said.
Liu Hao ignored him and continued to look at Manager Bai, waiting for his answer.
“If it doesn't have a name, does that mean your method won't work?” Manager Bai asked.
“If it has no name, the success rate is only thirty percent, but if it does, I'm eighty percent confident,” Liu Hao said.
Manager Bai fell silent for a moment before he spoke, “His name is Zhang Boqiang.”
Upon hearing this, Liu Hao was taken aback; his suspicion had been confirmed.
Liu Hao had stepped forward primarily to make a good impression on Manager Bai.
Moreover, it would most likely improve the completion of the passage.
Additionally, he wanted to test the origins of this Super Pig.
If there were no name, it was undoubtedly an ordinary Abnormality.
Once there was a name, however, the result was self-evident; Super Pig's true identity must have emerged from an Abnormality, or even a Contractor.
Hearing this, several Contractors working nearby were also startled. They weren't fools; with a little thought, they understood.
At this moment, they became even more careful in their work, fearing that any mistake violating the rules would end up with them being raised like pigs in the pen.
Liu Hao stood in front of the cage, looking at the Super Pig fiercely slamming against the cage, showing no fear on his face.
He slowly said, “Zhang Boqiang, I know you don't want to go to the slaughterhouse. So let's gamble with rock-paper-scissors to decide the outcome.”
“If I win, you must go to the slaughterhouse; if you win, you can stay here.”
“Hmm?” When Liu Hao said this, everyone's gaze focused on him.
“It turns out he's a compulsive gambler.” At this point, an Abnormality sneered.
“This Contractor actually made a Contract with a Gambling Ghost, tsk tsk, what boldness,” another Abnormality muttered in amazement.
Even Manager Bai couldn't help but take another look at Liu Hao.
“Hmm?” At this moment, Mei Xizi heard something different in their conversation.
“A compulsive gambler? Gambling Ghost? Rock-paper-scissors? Did he use his ability before?” Mei Xizi suddenly remembered the time when they decided positions by rock-paper-scissors.
As Liu Hao spoke of the gamble, the previously agitated Super Pig miraculously calmed down.
Not only that, but the Super Pig also sat down on the ground, raising its right paw, seemingly ready to play rock-paper-scissors with Liu Hao.
Seeing this, Liu Hao's face lit up with joy, about to extend his hand, when suddenly, he staggered and his face went extremely pale.
The Ghost Power within him was too low, insufficient to gamble with a Super Pig comparable to a Level 4.
“Old Ghost, quick, give me ghost qi,” Liu Hao exclaimed in shock, immediately speaking to his contracted Gambling Ghost.
“Old rules, nine come, thirteen go,” the Gambling Ghost inside Liu Hao slowly said.
“No problem, hurry up,” Liu Hao quickly agreed.
In the next moment, a flow of pure ghost qi surged out from within his body.
Liu Hao's complexion instantly became rosier, then, steadying himself, he raised his hand: “Rock, paper, scissors!”
As Liu Hao's voice fell, he directly threw scissors.
On the Super Pig's side, due to its special nature, the paw couldn't change, typically forming paper.
Thus, Liu Hao directly won this round of rock-paper-scissors.
“Awooo~!” Suddenly, the Super Pig shivered all over and then howled.
But then Liu Hao spoke again, “Let's gamble again, still with rock-paper-scissors. If you win, you can still stay here; if you lose, then you must obediently go to the slaughterhouse.”
“Eh, didn't this guy already win? Why is he gambling again?” an Abnormality wondered aloud.
“Are you dumb? He's just a Level 2 Contractor; this ability works reliably against same or lower level, but with higher levels, he needs to win several times to forcibly obtain the winning chips.”
“This kind of crushing scenario, it's like he's got this pig eating out of his hand,” another more knowledgeable Abnormality commented.
“Oh oh, so that's how it is, you sure know a lot.”
“Alas, I once gambled with a Gambling Ghost one level lower than me, lost, and tried to cheat. Then he activated his ability, won against me three times in a row, even taking my pants,” the Abnormality sighed.
Gambling Ghosts are a unique presence in the Mysterious World.
Although their forms are bizarre and varied, humanoid, other forms, Beastmen, or even animal forms included.
However, the one thing they share is the ability to make a bet.
It's just that the manner of ‘making a bet' varies.
Like the one Liu Hao contracted, apparently making a bet is rock-paper-scissors.
Some methods of ‘making a bet' are even odder, including competing to see who can urinate further.
Their conversation also cleared up the confusion for everyone.
Only Mei Xizi, in the distance, was gritting her teeth.
The opponent had activated his ability, and he hadn't noticed at all.
Elsewhere.
Mu Rufeng sat still in front of the iron cage, looking expectant.
It had been an hour, a full hour, and the fourth pig still hadn't arrived.
The three pigs had contributed a bit of power, two points of Spirit, and three percent of Ghost Power Value to Mu Rufeng, which was hardly significant.
Just then, a noise came from inside the cage.
The wall finally opened.
Then, a massive creature slowly walked into the iron cage.
As the colossal creature stepped in, the wall quickly closed, as if fearful that this Super Pig might turn back.
Just as the wall sealed shut, the massive Super Pig suddenly howled, its originally calm face instantly becoming fierce.
Quickly, it spotted Mu Rufeng, who was visibly delighted, and without a word, slammed its head against the iron cage.
With a “boom,” the cage shook slightly.
