Chapter 253: Breaking Game Records

Going to the mall with girls? No way! 

"You guys go, I'll stay at home." Ryan said with a smile. 

His last experience of going out with Irina ended with severe trauma because he was used as a grocery bag carrier. And Ryan was sure that his sister-in-law was not much different from his wife.

Besides, he couldn't wait for the night to come, he better rest and wait for Irina to come home.

"Eh!! How come you don't want to? You're not funny!" Ivanka jumped and dragged Ryan. "Come on bro come with us, I promise we will have fun together!"

"Fine, fine, let me change my clothes first then," Ryan felt helpless.

.........….

Forced, Ryan drove to the mall together with Ivanka and Ashley.

Grand Avalerion was famous for its game center. Many young people gathered here.

Because this game center used a power card to play, Ivanka and Ashley immediately deposited up to 300 thousand dollars to their cards. They couldn't wait to try all the available games.

"Eh, uh, let's try to play that!" Ashley's gaze lit up when she saw the available shooting game.

"Come on!" Ivanka was honestly interested in all genres of games. And when they crashed into a basketball game, Ryan also came to play.

The game was quite simple. They were given 30 seconds by the machine, the time would increase by 1 second and the score would double when the player scored. So if you were good enough at shooting your basketball, you could play this game as long as possible. Of course, it all depended on your shooting skills.

"I'll go first."

Ivanka quickly swiped the card. The balls quickly descended and Ivanka started throwing them one by one. Unfortunately, all of Ivanka's attempts only hit the rim of the basket without scoring.

However, since Ivanka had a competitive spirit, she didn't give up and shot the basketballs with enthusiasm.

Ryan looked at his sister-in-law with a laugh, it seemed that Ivanka was about to shoot the ball outside of the cage.

However, all of Ivanka's throws missed the mark and her playing time shrank. She eventually scored 0.

The passersby laughed in their hearts, but since it was a girl playing so they all tolerated it.

Ivanka held the last ball in her hand and threw it wholeheartedly. However, it was actually an air ball.

"Hahaha, your score is 0!" Ashley laughed. "You suck!!! Hahaha!"

Now it was Ashley's turn to play. She started throwing the basketball one by one.

DUAK!

Her first pitch failed.

BAM! 

The second throw didn't even hit the rim.

PROK!

Finally the third pitch came in!

However, Ashley only managed to score 1 ball during play.

Everyone who passed was already laughing, it seemed that watching the two girls' playing basketball was more fun than playing other games.

Ivanka and Ashley felt people mocking them and became irritated. They got even more annoyed when Ryan laughed at them. "Hahaha, you two are terrible. This game also requires throwing skills so it is not enough to just play it with enthusiasm,"

"Then why don't you try it, brother?" Ivanka pushed Ryan to the front of the machine.

"Alright, if you insist," Ryan borrowed Ivanka's card and started playing it.

The first ball went in smoothly, the sound of the netting was a real relief. Ryan then took the second ball and managed to put it back in.

All of his throws went smoothly and the sound of the game's engine started getting excited. Not long after that, his score was already 100.

The laughter from earlier slowly died down as people started to look serious. Ivanka and Ashley were standing on the side in a daze, how could anyone score that much?

Ryan still continued to throw the ball, he casually took each ball and shot it perfectly. The sound of the ball coming in was continuously heard, he was almost similar to an NBA player.

The sound of the engine started to get excited again, Ryan's score now reached 300. At this time, the ring started moving right and left at a slow pace.

When the player reached a certain score, the basketball ring would move side to side. It would be slow at first but as the score progressed, it would move faster.

More and more people stopped and saw Ryan. They couldn't hide their admiration, that fellow was really good.

The highest score on that machine was 1120 points, so it could be said that it was the upper limit of all this time. Could this person break that point record?

Ryan's movement looked relaxed and stable. Every time he shot it, the throw always went smoothly. Since Ryan managed to score continuously, the time had increased to 120 seconds. 

Now he had 90 seconds added.

PROK!

Ryan had made it to a score of 500, the engine made another sound and the ring started moving faster.

The crowd was getting bigger, they looked at Ryan with awe.

"Crazy, that guy hasn't missed even once!"

"Is he a professional basketball player?"

"Looks like he's going to break the record!"

While people started discussing with each other, Ryan casually kept throwing the ball. His score slowly reached 800. 

The ring was now moving very fast, but Ryan never missed a shot. As for the time limit, he had already added over 400 seconds.

The people started to hold their breath, it seemed that the highest record would be broken today.

Everyone was waiting for this moment.

PROK!

This time, Ryan made it to a score of 1000, the basketball ring also started to move even faster. At such speed, it was very difficult for anyone to score.

But with Ryan's expertise, that kind of speed was nothing. The accuracy of his shootings was still perfect.

It didn't take long for him to reach 1120, one more ball and the highest score would be surpassed.

Everyone had already clapped their hands, this fellow was truly extraordinary!

Ivanka and Ashley were shaking their heads. Ivanka's jaw dropped at the scene. It looked like her brother-in-law was really good at anything.

Ryan was still throwing the ball and people were still watching him. Now he had reached 3000 points. The ring had moved like crazy, people could barely see it with naked eyes. However, that speed was still nothing compared to bullets his enemies rained on him in his previous battle.

Shot after shot hitting its target quickly, not a single one missed.

Everyone was wondering to themselves, was he still human?

Ryan was still shooting the balls, now the score reached 7000 and none of his shots missed.

In the end, Ryan managed to set a new record of 9500. If it weren't for the interference of a staff, the record would have been much higher. If the point record was too high, then people would not be interested in playing this game. A score that people thought they could reach was also a marketing strategy.

And at the same time, the staff agreed to compensate Ryan in the form of a power card worth 500 thousand.

Ryan did not expect a gift like this. But since he was already exhausted from his continuous throwing, he had no intention of spending the digital money today.

After getting the prize, Ryan walked over to Ivanka and Ashley with a smile.

"So you've been so good at playing basketball all this time huh? This win doesn't count then! We'll finish our fight in another game!" Ivanka immediately dragged Ryan to another game.

The machines in the game center were varied, this time the two girls' eyes were fixed on a dancing game.

This game was actually quite simple. It combined music, movement, direction and sight. Basically, this game consisted of a player, a dance pad and a screen. On the dance pad, there were 8 buttons that the player's feet would step on. The player was asked to step on the button that corresponded to the arrows appearing on the screen. These arrows appeared from the bottom of the screen and floated up towards the guide arrows called step zone arrows. Moreover, if we choose a song with a high difficulty level, the arrows would move much faster. So the agility of the player was very important in this game.

This machine could be used for two players, so Ivanka and Ashley enthusiastically chose the song they liked.

Ryan just sat there watching. It could be said that Ivanka and Ashley were energetic girls and with that slim built, they could keep up with the rhythm well. When compared to the basketball game earlier, they were much better at this dancing game.

As more arrows appeared, the two of them started stepping on their dance pad seriously. 

Ivanka and Ashley seemed to have a talent for dancing, their agility also really helped them in this game.

Both of them were so absorbed in this game that they didn't pay attention to their surroundings.
