As soon as he finished speaking, the three spotlights suddenly went out, and the small space became dark again. Only the piles of TVs behind the man in the hood emitted fluorescent light, slightly illuminating the surroundings.

play games?

Mr. Zai was stunned for a moment.

Before I understood whether this game referred to blackjack or something else, I saw the man in the hooded man on the opposite side struggling and twisting crazily.

[let me go! let me go! ! Who are you! ? who are you! ? Where is this place? what you up to! ? ]

Mr. Zai was immediately stunned by the actions of the other party.

The effect of this performance...

It definitely used motion capture!

Damn, what a big deal!

However, before Mr. Zai could finish being surprised, he found that the protagonist he controlled suddenly punched the rusty table in front of him.

The huge sound not only stunned him as a player, but also stunned the hooded man opposite.

[What do you want to do...]

This voice was so close that it was obviously coming from the protagonist he controlled.

When Mr. Zai saw this, he immediately reacted.

Is this... a plot?

No way, a poker game actually has a plot?

After Mr. Zai realized it, he couldn't hold himself any longer.

Throughout his gaming career, he has played many card games.

I have played all kinds of games such as Landlord Fighting, Golden Flower Fraud, Bullfighting, Seven Ghosts, Five, Two, Three, etc.

But these games can always be played immediately with a click, and the cards are dealt on the spot without taking up much of your time.

No game manufacturer has ever added plot to a card game.

After all, there is no need to make these extraneous things for puzzle games. It will seem thankless and may not have as high a sales volume as Gun Car Ball.

But that’s what happened!

Added plot to the card game!

He admitted that he underestimated this VR game.

I originally thought that the card game made in a month would be no different from the one on an ordinary computer. At most, it would broaden the horizons. After all, it is VR.

But what's the result?

There are realistic scenes!

Conversations with characters!

There are smooth movements!

What a plot!

OMG!

Is this really a game that took a month to make?

In front of me, as soon as the protagonist finished asking, the masked man on the TV changed his sitting position and spoke slowly, his voice still low.

[Compared to Mr. Hoffman in front of you, you are obviously calmer. You are worthy of being the photographer of the adventure crew, Mr. Clancy. ]

Clancy...

Zai suddenly became enlightened.

It turns out that the protagonist I control is named Clancy, so the man in the hood opposite him should be Hoffman.

At this time, hearing his name, the hooded man Hoffman struggled and roared again.

[who are you! What do you want to do! What do you want to do! ! ! ]

There was a kind of fear and uneasiness in Hoffman's tone, which was a roar of insecurity and an urge to be bold.

As a player, Mr. Zai knows what he will do, so he is not able to immerse himself in the current dangerous situation.

Right now, he is just a spectator.

[Oh, Mr. Hoffman, a truck driver with a beautiful daughter and a happy family, but your courage and your temper are not compatible. ]

Hoffman on the opposite side obviously trembled when he heard this.

Because he...mentioned his family!

The masked man chuckled lightly and continued speaking without waiting for the two people at the card table to react.

[What do I want to do? In fact, I have already said that I want to play a game with you. ]

[But please note that this game...]

Mr. Zai raised his head and looked at the black and white TV. The masked man took out a doll, and then held the head and legs with both hands, as if he controlled a person's life.

[...A matter of life and death! ]

Snapped--

Doll, split in two.

Hoffman on the opposite side trembled. Apparently, he also saw the TV picture.

Only then did Mr. Zai realize that there were piles of TV sets behind him.

And the masked man inside casually threw away the doll, as if it had become trash, without caring. .

[Whoever wins can leave here alive. ]

[But the loser...]

At this moment, Mr. Zai saw on the TV that the masked man slowly pulled out a woman's head from under his body.

He grabbed the long black hair and moved the bloody and distorted face closer, trying to get a clear look at the two people in front of the card table.

After seeing this, Mr. Zai felt a chill in his heart.

This head, the expression of fear on its face has been completely distorted and frozen, and it is obvious that it has experienced some great pain and torture.

[...it'll be like this, you know? ]

When Zai Zong saw this, he couldn't help but say "f*ck".

The live broadcast room also became a barrage because of this scene.

They all said they were awesome and shit.

[madman! You are a madman! Murderous maniac! Let me go quickly! Let me go! ! ]

Hoffman roared again, but this time, there was a hint of cowardice and helplessness.

So true!

Zai always has to feel professional for this dubbing artist!

And this movement, the scene of struggle, looks very much like someone trying to escape.

[No, no, no, please don't do this Mr. Hoffman. ]

The masked man threw the female head behind him just like he had thrown the doll before.

[You don’t want your daughter and wife to come here either, do you? ]

In an instant, Hoffman froze on the spot like a thunderbolt.

[Please...don't hurt them...I can do whatever you want...please don't hurt them...please...]

After hearing this, the masked man laughed.

[That's right. As long as you defeat Mr. Clancy in front of you, you can go home alive and reunite with your wife and daughter. ]

After hearing this, Hoffman lowered his head and muttered something quietly under his hood.

Mr. Zai frowned and turned up the volume of the VR device's Bluetooth headset before finally hearing what he said clearly.

[I will get out of here...I can't die...I will win...I will definitely win...kill him...kill him...kill him...]

These words sent a chill down Mr. Zai's spine, and he didn't know what to say for a moment.

At this time, the masked man on the TV announced the rules of the game.

[Do you like playing cards? Oh, of course you do. ]

[I designed a game just for you. ]

At this moment, following the masked man's voice, the card machine on the side immediately issued four cards to the two of them.

Two for Zaizong and two for Hoffman.

There is one hole card and one open card respectively.

[But we don’t gamble our chips...]

A spring mechanical sound sounded.

Mr. Zai suddenly discovered that the severed finger torture instrument that imprisoned the palm of his hand, the guillotine on the little finger bounced!

He could see clearly that the blade of this guillotine was extremely sharp. If it was cut off, the finger would definitely be in danger!

Hoffman on the opposite side was obviously frightened, and his body was trembling slightly.

[Do you... understand what I mean? Haha...hahaha...hahahahaha! ]

Following bursts of crazy laughter, the TV suddenly lost its signal, and the snowflake screen flickered, once again lighting up the narrow space.

After the masked man's image disappeared, Mr. Zai found that four limited-time dialogue options appeared in front of him.

【1.Who are you and how were you arrested? 】

【2.We should find a way to get out of here. 】

[3. Do we really want to play this game? 】

【4. Cheer up! You would also believe what a freak says! ? 】

Time, only 5 seconds.

Since the time was too short, Mr. Zai subconsciously chose 4 before he had time to think.

Soon, Clancy, the protagonist he controlled, spoke.

[Cheer up, man! Do you believe what a freak says? ? ]

[I can't die...I want to go home...I want to win...I want to win you...I will definitely go home...]

Well, it seems that this Hoffman can no longer listen to anything he says.

But Mr. Zai once again admired Shuo Guang.

It’s really awesome to be able to add dialogue options to this kind of game, giving players a sense of freedom and immersion.

"Brothers, no matter what you think, I love this game! This face will hurt again! I don't care!"

The audience in the live broadcast room immediately began to comment, and there were gifts floating all over the screen.

[Now, let me explain the rules of the game. ]

The masked man's voice sounded from the speaker.

Obviously, even without a television, he was still watching.

[Have you ever heard of blackjack? ]

[There are only 11 cards in the card dealer, numbers 1 to 11, and two people share a deck of cards. ]

[In other words, you can never draw the same card. ]

[As long as the total number of cards you draw does not exceed 21. ]

[But if it exceeds...your fingers will sneer...and disappear...! Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha! ]

Hoffman was immediately frightened.

[Etc., etc! This is crazy! You can't do this! ]

However, the masked man's voice interrupted him directly.

[So, fingers crossed, the game begins! Starting with Clancy, you first! ]

At this time, the voice of Clancy, the protagonist, trembled.

[Are you joking...? ]

But the masked man no longer made any sound.

But Zai always knew that he must be watching and observing the game!

Now that the plot is over, it's his turn as a player.

At this time, two dialogues appeared in front of him.

This time, there is no time limit.

【1.Give me a card】

【2.I don’t want cards anymore】

And currently there are two cards in his hand on the rusty table.

One hole card and one up card.

The up card is 8 and the bottom card is...

Mr. Zai controlled the controller, and Clancy in the game immediately stretched out his free right hand, revealed the hole card, and saw the numbers inside.

It's 2...

Well, he's at 10 o'clock now.

Mr. Zai carefully put down his trump card and covered it again.

Then he looked at Hoffman opposite.

At this time, he was restless, thinking hard, and obviously very nervous.

There were also two cards in front of him.

The hole card cannot be seen, and the up card is 1.

Then, the cards on the table are 1, 2, and 8 respectively.

still have a chance!

Mr. Zai immediately chose Dialogue 1.

Clancy in the game suddenly spoke.

[Give me another card. ]

brush--

The card machine immediately dealt a card to him.

It's the open card, the number 3.

At this time, the total number of cubs is already 13, which is still far away from 21 points, but there is no need to panic.

On the opposite side, Hoffman also spoke nervously at this moment.

[I also want a card...]

brush--

The card machine immediately dealt him a card as well.

It's the number 9.

Then Hoffman's face value is 10 points, and he doesn't know his hole card.

He is the up card + hole card, the total is 13 points.

There’s still a chance to draw one!

Mr. Zai chose Dialogue 1 again and asked to draw cards.

Soon, the card machine made a swipe sound and dealt a card in front of him.

But this card made Mr. Zai’s face change drastically!
