The slightly warm autumn afternoon sun shines down from the thin clouds, illuminating this shabby hotel that lacks repairs. It is covered with a layer of golden light, making it look bright and noble.
Sunlight penetrates from the window of the attic, leaving a sloping field-shaped light on the floor. The rest of the space also enjoys the warmth of the residual light. It seems that if a rocking chair is placed on that field, you can lie down on it. It must be very comfortable to take a nap up there.
Under normal circumstances, indeed.
At this time, the attic was already filled with two cloudy and tense atmospheres, which were even more chilling than a battlefield littered with corpses. The sunlight that penetrated was also affected, making it seem a bit dimmer.
The end of the first round did not ease the atmosphere of this duel. Although the thread of fate between our souls made us feel as close as family when we first met.
But as the saying goes, brothers settle accounts clearly. There are some things that no matter how close they are, they still have to be settled clearly and clearly.
Unconsciously, the two people in the confrontation were breathing heavily, wiping the corners of their mouths, imagining the blood on their sleeves.
"In the second round, take the move, Beansa."
"Come here, senior brother, Beansa won't be careless again."
He once again assumed a stance and took a deep breath: "Ask a question, I picked up two daughters eight years ago, and half of them four years ago. I picked up another one a year ago. Let's say two daughters eight years ago. Daughters. Each gave birth to two daughters. The daughter four years ago also gave birth to two daughters, and the daughter a year ago gave birth to three daughters. How many daughters do I have in total in the end?!"
Rumble, rumble, rumble. All the words turned into a roaring energy, blasting away with the power of a hundred thousand star destruction cannons.
"It's hard to beat Beansa!"
The Demon King girl resisted fiercely. He took out ten fingers again and counted them quickly.
Eight years ago, the two daughters each gave birth to two daughters, which means four daughters. The half daughter I picked up four years ago gave birth to two daughters. But don't be careless, the trap is here, because it is half a daughter, so the two daughters born will have a 50% discount, so it only counts as one daughter, Beansa, I am so smart. Hum hum, senior brother will never mislead me again this time.
The last daughter. Three children were born, and the final number was four plus one plus three! !
"Seven, seven daughters, that's right." The Demon King girl confidently pointed out her seven fingers to the opposite side.
"wrong!!!"
Pointing his thumb, Beansa screamed again and was swallowed up by the energy cannon.
"No...impossible. Beansa is obviously very confident."
"Humph, you're so naive, let me tell you." I looked down at the other person. "You ignored the most basic attempt. A daughter born from a daughter is a granddaughter. In other words, she is someone else's daughter... uh, someone else's... someone else's..."
Suddenly he was stunned, muttering these three words, his body shook a few times, and before he knew it, he came to the corner of the wall, holding his hands on the wall, and fell into endless frustration.
"Oh oh oh oh--------!!!"
Suddenly, with a fierce momentum, he kept banging his forehead against the wall! ! ! !
"No, Sirus, Aikelu, Kajie'er, Xiao Heitan, the men outside are all beasts. Dad will never let you be deceived by a beast, let alone give birth to a child..." ——!!!”
As the wall made a painful wail of "dong dong dong dong", the entire dilapidated hotel shook. After a while, I staggered back, covering the blood on my forehead, and my eyes were red.
"For asking a question like this... I'm a bit of a jerk, so I lose this time."
"Won...did you win?"
Although it was a bit baffling and made Beansha stunned, she finally cheered.
"Then it's Beansa's turn!" The Demon King girl was not immersed in the joy of victory, and planned to pursue the victory and regain the disadvantage in the previous round.
"Ask a question! Demon King No. 1, who had been robbed of mushrooms by Beansha several times, was dissatisfied and planned to attack Beansha. However, he was beaten by Beansha and fled. Then, it came to Demon King No. 2, but was beaten again by Beansha. While escaping, Demon King No. 1 and Demon King No. 2 were still unwilling to give in. They each found Demon King No. 3 and Demon King No. 4. The four of them joined forces and still could not defeat Beansa. Finally, they each found another Demon King, but Beansa beat them to death. Got the pig’s head!”
Hey, wait, why does this question sound connected? is that true? You're lying. Do you think the devil is a cat or a dog on the roadside?
Holding back the questions, I continued to listen.
"Now ask the question! How many demon kings did Beansa defeat in total?"
I turned my head quickly.
First one is defeated, the defeated one seeks a helper, he is defeated again, each of them seeks a helper, but is still defeated, and then seeks a helper again...
Uh, I feel like my mind is a little confused.
But in the end, I also found inspiration, isn't it just multiplying by two each time, one, two, four, eight, just add these four numbers together, and you will get the final answer! ! !
"The result is - fifteen!!!" This time, I calculated it three times. After confirming that it was correct, I announced the answer with confidence.
"Nineteen."
I immediately fell to the ground.
"This is impossible!!!"
One of them was an undead corpse. He dared to fight Ben... ahem, dared to fight Beansa just because he could be resurrected. However, after being killed by Beansa once, he was resurrected and killed a second time, and he never got up again. There was also a flesh-and-blood resurrector. He didn't have much ability, but he could spit out four demon-level flesh-and-blood beasts. Because he was very annoying, Beansa killed them all.
"So do we need to add one and four in the end? It turns out to be nineteen. I was so careless. I forgot to ask about the type of monster." I punched the ground with regret.
"Hmph, senior brother can be careless sometimes. Beansa won this round."
"Okay, that makes it a tie."
I stood up. The matter has come to this, and there is no point in regretting. You can only know your shame and then be brave. Keep working hard.
"Senior brother, do you want to continue?"
Beansa's eyes were shining, and he obviously liked this kind of game.
"Humph, of course we have to continue. But this time we will change the gameplay, watch out!"
I put my hands into my arms. Pull it out, and like magic, a [cloth blanket] four to five meters wide appears out of thin air. unfolded in mid-air. Slowly and evenly it fell to the ground.
If you look closely, you will see that this [cloth blanket] is densely painted with many grids and some familiar patterns.
That’s right, this is the game of life! ! !
Since the last trip to the artifact fragments. I learned from the experience and decided to practice hard. In order to adapt to the fierce competition in the future (?), so I specially asked Old Man Farah to make this blanket with magic elements added. With the help of magic, it becomes richer, simpler and more intuitive than the life game in the original world. More challenging.
By the way, there are also dice, cards, spinners and some props.
"Old man, do you want to play together?"
Following the principle that more people are more fun, after explaining the general rules of the game to Beansa, I greeted old man Galen who was squatting in the corner for some reason, trapped in the black and white world of life.
"You can do it yourself..."
Gallen responded desperately and continued to squat in the corner and weep secretly.
I thought that I would live a glorious life, but in the end I was ruined and ended up accepting two stupid students. Why did God treat me like this?
Even if he doesn't come, he might as well rot in that corner.
I rolled my eyes and went to pick the characters with Beansa and prepare for the game.
But before we get started, there's one more thing to do.
Under Beansa's puzzled gaze, I snapped my fingers, and in an instant, six more ice wings appeared on my back.
The light of the wife knight bless me, Demacia!
After the artifact fragment came back, I have been thinking about what is the most important thing in playing the game of life. After pondering for a full month, I suddenly realized it.
luck!
Although wisdom and judgment are also important, in the face of absolute luck, everything is just a cloud.
Therefore, as a quasi-tragedy emperor, I will naturally lose to anyone I meet except Feini. The most painful one was when I lost to Kajiel, who could not even remember the rules of the game.
That's why I want to summon the Ice Wing now, in exchange for the improvement of luck with the reduction of intelligence. Experiments have proved that when opening ten boxes in the Ice Wing state, there is only a 10% chance of encountering a trap box, and when the Ice Wing is not equipped, In this case, the probability is as high as more than 50%.
"Senior...brother, this is..." Seeing six ice wings suddenly appear behind me, Beansha was shocked and asked curiously.
"Hmph, not bad, let me tell you, this is my complete body, senior brother!"
Putting my hands on my hips, I looked up to the sky and burst into laughter. Then I laughed, picked up the dice next to me, and threw it out with a loud shout.
The two rapidly rotating dice fell to the ground, blowing up a tornado like a spinning top. Finally, they touched each other, each bounced out, rolled on the ground a few more times, and both stopped.
There are six bright red dots on the front of the two dice!
Yes, this is the momentum!
I controlled the character and walked forward twelve spaces. As soon as I stopped, I heard a rough and heroic voice in my ears.
"Do you want my wealth? Yes, I'll put everything in the world there. You can go find it!"
Then, the scenery of the grid in front changed and turned into a vast blue ocean, with countless pirate ships passing through it. The grid under the feet turned into a small boat with a flag high on the bow. The pattern is a [⑨] surrounded by six ice wings.
I:"……"
It seems that we have entered a strange life path. Is it really okay? And this flag emblem always makes me unable to let go.
On the other side, Beansa also rolled the dice and headed for another fork in life.
Ignore her for now and look at yourself first. I feel an inexplicable uneasiness.
I continued to roll the dice, this time it was nine o'clock, raised the sails and sailed the pirate ship, I went straight forward, and landed on a small island.
[I found a treasure chest on an unknown island and obtained some pirate treasures]
snort. My current luck scares even me.
Still not safe though. In this world where strength is paramount. Power is everything.
The third pitch yielded a four.
[You join the Navy Headquarters, learn the six naval styles, and your combat effectiveness skyrockets]
As soon as I dozed off, someone brought me a pillow, which moved me to tears. Long live the wife knight.
The fourth time, five points were thrown.
[You learn something at Navy Headquarters. He led a fleet to leave, and a few days later, it landed on a small island. A large number of frogs were found on it. You play the frozen frog game and stay there for three turns. 】
How can I, who have learned Navy Six, stay in a place like this and waste time playing the Frozen Frog game, you bastard! ! !
I gasped for air and glanced at Beansa. She didn't seem to be going well, but she was okay.
Round seven. As soon as I picked up the dice, there was a prompt.
[Your bad behavior of torturing frogs angered the frog god, and you had a fight with her. Finally, he was injured and fled, staying for five rounds]
I:"……"
Well, the light of the wife knight is not omnipotent.
[You were ordered to come to O'Hara Island and bloodbathed the island. The favorability of the navy increased, the favorability of the pirates decreased, and Nico Robin regarded you as an enemy]
Oh oh oh——No! ! It’s over, I’ve offended the protagonist! ! !
The game of life continues. Along the way, I have gone through the sky and under the sea. I have been cheated and beaten several times by a certain protagonist's team. I fell into the sea just after eating the devil fruit. I went to a strange island full of transvestites and almost ejected. A chrysanthemum bloomed, the ground was covered with wounds, and in the end he was expelled from the navy and offered a reward. His father did not care for his mother, but under the blessing of the wife knight's light, he finally wandered on the boundary line of elimination and stumbled to the back.
I think I'm probably playing the role of Team Rocket. Even though I'm very weak and miserable, I can still get some scenes in every episode.
Driving a small boat with a hull full of cracks and patches that would fall apart if I stepped on it with heavy steps, I shed tears of joy when I saw that the end was in sight.
Very good, we are about to win, rush forward in one breath.
I threw the dice out hard again, looked at the nine o'clock that stayed on it, and still took my steps... no, I resolutely set sail.
Suddenly, a grid flashed in front of his eyes, and all the scenery was swallowed up, leaving only a lonely blank space, which seemed to reveal innocent eyes.
How is this going? Encountered a BUG, the magic circle crashed?
I was stunned for a moment and suddenly became confused. It’s not easy to get to this point, you bastard!
Ah, I suddenly remembered.
I have not made it to the end of this map, which means it is an unfinished work.
As for why...
Because One Piece is not over yet, how can people continue?
So that’s it, it’s not a BUG or there’s something wrong with the magic circle, haha~~~
After finding out the reason, I scratched my head and laughed happily.
Then, the spiritual coffee table was lifted angrily.
Oda [beep] Ichiro, you are making a fool of yourself! ! ! ! ! ! !
I left the game of life dejectedly and found that poor Beansa had already fallen to the ground with circles around his eyes. He was still muttering "The Demon World Village is so scary". He didn't know which world he was involved in. , what a poor child.
Looking at the sky, I realized that the sun was about to set before I knew it. It seemed that I was so absorbed in the game that I had forgotten the time.
"Senior brother, senior brother, are you going back?"
Seeing my plan keenly, Beansara tugged on my cloak, and in his mysterious and beautiful eyes like black gems, there was a look of pity like an abandoned puppy.
"this……"
I became embarrassed. If I didn’t go back, Linya would be worried again.
"That's right, it's rare to get together with Biansha, can you have the heart to leave her alone? At least it's not too late to leave after dinner." Old man Galen suddenly jumped up and helped.
Is it my imagination? I always feel like this old man is brewing some conspiracy.
"Okay, let me go say hello first." I didn't think much about it. Seeing Beansha's happy look, I couldn't help but touch her head.
Suddenly there is an additional junior sister, which feels really good.
I asked the soldiers to go back and report, and I returned to the attic again... Speaking of which, when I came here for the first time, I actually wanted to complain about why I had to enter through the window. It looked like I was staying at the Overlord Hotel.
However, considering that Raphael has everything in the camp, if he checks into the hotel in the normal way, he will definitely let her know the news soon. Old Galen probably has to do this because of this factor, so I don’t want to say anything. What's the matter? This hotel is in a semi-abandoned state anyway.
When they returned, the teachers and students inside had already built a bonfire and placed a sad-looking broken pot on it, as if they were cooking something.
"Oh, we are already making dinner, what is it?" Only now did I remember that I had not eaten lunch. I touched my dry belly and felt impatient.
"Biancha's homemade noodles." The girl turned around and showed a pure smile.
Cook noodles...
For some reason, I suddenly had a bad premonition. I always felt that the memories related to these three words were extremely dark and desolate.
A moment later, holding the dark, sticky object in the bowl, I looked speechlessly at Old Man Galen, who was also holding the same bowl, but was smiling at me, gloating about my misfortune.
This hairy-legged immortal can really do things that can harm the enemy a thousand times and injure himself eight hundred times.
