After entering the "card table" interface,"the players of this table" could communicate through typing or voice chat. Of course, they could also turn on the video chat function.
Without much hesitation, Feng bujue opened the video and said to the screen,""I'm coming. "
After a short silence, the user with the ID [host] and a question mark head on the other side of the 'card table' also turned on the voice message.""It seems like ... You don't mind exposing your identity."
"Hmph ... That kind of thing, wasn't it already exposed?" Feng bujue scoffed.
"Oh? How do you know?" The host asked.
"With the resources you have at your disposal ... As long as you take a cup or a straw that I used on the Yage, you'll be able to find out who I am with fingerprints and DNA." Feng bujue replied,"and ... The first thing you said when you opened your mouth was to confess."
"What?" The host was stunned.
"Hmph ... What a slow reaction ..." Feng bujue did not give the man any time to react. One second later, he continued,"indeed, I'm currently using my real appearance, and my name is a homophone, but ... How did you know? That day on the Yage, you only saw the face of a 'clown', and you only grasped the name 'Crow'... But now, in this virtual game where appearance can be adjusted, the first thing you say after seeing me is 'you don't care about exposing your identity anymore'. This is equivalent to telling me that the person you 'saw' matches the 'identity you've found. "
He quickly finished his speech, making the host fall into silence again.
A moment later, the host ... Also turned on the video chat function, and then a young face appeared on the screen.
"Let me formally introduce myself ..." The host, who had a Chinese-European face (when he was wearing the mask, brother Jue could tell from the skin color of his neck and hands that he was yellow), said to brother Jue with a smile,"...My name is Adolf snow, a rich man who loves 'games'."
"Oh, nice to meet you." Brother Jue, on the other hand, replied listlessly,"since you've already looked into my name and occupation, I won't repeat myself. If you want to call me an artist or a great writer or something ... You're welcome, I can handle it."
"Ha ... You're really as 'crazy' as the internet says." Snow continued,"crazy. Bujue."
He deliberately enunciated these three words word by word, as if there was a hidden meaning.
Brother Jue understood the hidden meaning."So ... Your research on me is not just at the level of a 'file'."
"Yes ..." Snow did not deny it. "After I found out your identity, I became more interested in you ... So, I read your books, watched your TV shows, and learned a lot of what you did in Thriller Paradise from various channels ..." When he said this, his eyes were shining with excitement."Hehe ... To be honest ... I'm really liking you more and more."
"Hmm ... That line of yours ..." Feng bujue narrowed his eyes."It's very easy for people to misunderstand you in that way."
"It doesn't matter." Snow, however, replied disapprovingly,"I'm bisexual."
"I see ..." Feng bujue nodded.
Then, there was a strange silence for a few seconds.
"I already have a girlfriend." Brother Jue said after a few seconds.
"Hahahaha ..." Snow laughed."Don't worry, you're not my type." He paused for half a second and said,"when I said 'I like you', it was as a 'game opponent'. I didn't mean anything else."
"Why do I feel like you're intentionally using words that can easily be misunderstood to test my reaction?" Feng bujue was quite sharp.
Snow was stunned for a few seconds before he said,""Fine, fine, you've seen through me. I was thinking, if the conversation goes well, I'll ..."
"That hypothesis no longer exists." Feng bujue immediately interrupted the man."Say something else."
Snow shrugged and laughed."Hehe ... That's fine." He thought for a while and said,"by the way, about the 'identity' just now, there's one thing I don't understand ..." He then asked,"the day before yesterday on the Yage, since you were very clear ... No matter what, I would eventually find out your identity. Then why ... Did you still put on such exaggerated clown makeup under the mask?"
"Ha ... That ..." Feng bujue chuckled."That was a backup plan that I had prepared to prevent anyone from taking off my mask during the party or during the game." He explained,"of course, that kind of thing ... As the host, you and your subordinates will not do it, because you have all the guests 'information. Taking a step back, even if you suspect my identity, you'll still ask me to go out alone and let me take off my mask. " He paused for a second and changed the topic."But the other guests ... It's hard to say. If someone were to fly into a rage out of humiliation and rip off my mask when I wasn't paying attention, my face would be seen by everyone around me. This situation ... Was very troublesome.
"Those who were in the banquet hall that day were all upper-class people who had no other choice. Many of them would return to the shore after that night ... If one of them recognized me, there would be endless trouble in the future."
"They actually ... Even considered that level?" Snow muttered.
"Isn't it only natural to consider that level?" Feng bujue replied,"impersonating someone else's identity, boarding a ship registered in Panama, sailing on the high seas ... To participate in a game that is illegal no matter how you look at it; A journey like this ... Even if it ends up with 'being dismembered and buried in the sea', no one would find it strange, right?"
"Ha ... That's right," Snow was not surprised that brother Jue gave him the answer directly.
"Sigh ... I knew it." Feng bujue read it out loud."If you don't want money ... You just want people."
"If you agree to this condition, we can start." Hearing that there was a chance, snow quickly urged the other party to make a decision.
"Alright, let's bet then." Feng bujue did not hesitate."But this is just a verbal agreement ... Do you trust me?"
"Do you still need to say that?" Snow said,"didn't you also believe that I would give you the thing after I lost without any contract guarantee?"
Feng bujue laughed."You flatter me. That is because when we made the agreement (it was on the Yage, after brother Jue removed his mask), I didn't even have the chance to question it."
"That's fine. Anyway, I believe you'll keep your promise." Snow said,"because the opponent I acknowledge ... Must be a man who can win and also can afford to lose."
............
Twenty minutes later.
"Your deck is ready." After confirming the card set, Feng bujue turned around to face the elevator door.
Wuwuwuwu
When Feng bujue pressed the 'doom' button, the elevator door opened with a buzz.
Outside the door was an arched stone corridor.
The corridor was made of white stones and was quite spacious. There was an exit more than ten meters in front of him, and the hot sun was already shining through the exit.
[Please choose your dueling equipment.]
The moment he stepped out of the elevator, the system's voice sounded again.
The next second, a window popped up in front of brother Jue. There were only two options in the window: The [duel control platform] and the [duel board].
Feng bujue chose the dueling plate without a second thought and pressed confirm.
In an instant, a stream of data appeared out of thin air and turned into a white light that wrapped around his arm.
Three seconds later, the white light stopped, and a device that looked like a folded mechanical wing with a blue background, white frame, and red axis appeared on brother Jue's left forearm.
"It has been detected that your dominant hand is your right hand. The duel plate is installed in your left hand by default. If you want to change the setting, please return to the login space settings."
[Your duel_disk is DD (Duel_Disk) standard. Please go to the online store to obtain more cool skins.]
During the course of the dueling disc, these two lines of words flashed across brother Jue's eyes.
"What's the use of being cool? can it increase the chance of winning a godly draw?" Feng bujue looked at the advertisement-like hint that floated by and mocked internally.
At this moment, he had already reached the end of the arched stone corridor.
When he stepped out of the stone door, his eyes suddenly opened up. The 'dueling ground' that he had chosen on the 'card table' earlier, the Roman Coliseum, came into brother Jue's view.
At the same time, from the stone door opposite him, another Duelist, Adolf snow, walked out. He was also equipped with a duel plate.
When the two of them got into their respective positions (there was a cursor on the ground pointing to the duelers 'standing area) and stood in the huge circular arena, a new system voice sounded.
This time, it was not a "prompt", but a "broadcast" that directly sounded on the field.
He only heard ... A very hot-blooded male voice saying,"Hey, hey!"
[Uphold the rules and etiquette, and have a happy duel.]
