Train Survival: I Can Evolve Everything!
Chapter 536: The First Rock-Paper-Scissors Game"Ah!"
Fengfeng retreated several steps in succession, looking at the still smiling young girl and feeling somewhat afraid.
"You..."
Dong~ Dong~
The bell tolled.
The rock-paper-scissors game space began to expand, enveloping the five people standing outside.
A light screen appeared, displaying the detailed rules of the trial.
[Each person possesses 20 ordinary chips. There are three trials in total. After the three trials conclude, the person with the highest total number of chips wins.]
[First trial: Rock-Paper-Scissors Game]
Each person must play one round of rock-paper-scissors with each of the other four, and during the game, use their own chips as bets, with a minimum of one and no maximum limit.
"Ahem."
Zhao Lin cleared her throat lightly.
Her figure appeared directly above the space, speaking in a tone full of "majesty":
"Welcome, everyone, to this trial arena. The 20 chips are merely the initial chips gifted to you. If anyone needs more chips, look over there."
She pointed to a spot not far away.
That place had a platform for exchanging chips.
"You can use one Train Coin to exchange for 5 chips, or, items with a value exceeding one Train Coin can be exchanged for an equivalent number of chips. After the three trials conclude, whoever has the highest number of chips is the winner of this trial."
"As for the losers... hehe."
"Now, the trial begins."
What would happen to the losers?
Actually, nothing would happen. Zhao Lin just thought saying this would sound cool.
As the holder of the Game Card, she concealed her figure within that space.
As the trial began.
The others seemed very keen on exchanging chips using items or Train Coins, because according to the rules, the more chips they had, the more advantageous it was for them.
In fact, as long as they exchanged enough, they could simply use one chip in each round of the rock-paper-scissors contest, and in the end, they would only lose four chips at most.
Therefore, including Fengfeng, the four people all used some Train Coins and items to exchange for more than ten chips.
Only the young girl named Mo Shi remained unmoved by this.
She gazed curiously at the surveillance camera, seemingly very interested in this thing.
"Fengfeng~ What's this?"
Hearing someone call her name, Fengfeng, who was thinking about strategy, looked over.
"Isn't this just a camera?"
"Camera? Oh~ a human technological creation, I remember now. That means someone is watching us from behind the camera."
Fengfeng took two steps back. She increasingly felt that this young girl named Mo Shi might... have something wrong with her mind?
Otherwise, how could anyone not know what a camera is?
All chip exchanges were completed.
Looking at the few low-level items and a full eleven Train Coins she had collected, Zhao Lin felt inexplicably defeated.
"Brother Qiyan, why do I feel they are much richer than we were when we first entered the Station World... This is only their fourth station..."
Ye Qiyan glanced at her, speaking quietly.
"Is it a lot?"
Zhao Lin shut her mouth.
How could she forget... the person beside her was the fastest-growing freak.
After comforting herself for a while, Zhao Lin regained her drive and announced the rules she had hidden in advance.
The light screen reappeared.
The hidden rules were revealed.
[During each round of rock-paper-scissors, place one chip as the ante. Both parties playing rock-paper-scissors cannot see what the other uses, while the remaining three people can see the outcome for both sides and can place bets on either side.
The rock-paper-scissors players cannot hear the voices of the other three, but they can guess whether they are the winner based on the [amount] of bets placed on them and can place at most one additional bet on their own victory.
However, if someone is dissatisfied with the result, they only need to give their opponent five chips to forcibly negate the result of this round.
Once the result of a game is negated, the chips bet by those who bet on the [winner] side in this negated game will be evenly divided among those who bet on the [loser] side.
During the game, the other three must place bets on both parties in the game.
When one party completely runs out of chips, the game will be forcibly ended.
When both parties choose the same gesture in rock-paper-scissors, the side with fewer bets placed on them wins.]
When this long string of new rules appeared, the one-eyed pirate was the first to shout.
"What kind of bullshit rules are these? Betting on the winner could still make you lose, betting on the loser could also make you lose, and you must place a bet. Damn it! Isn't this purely about scamming money?"
The game rules weren't actually complicated, but the real method of victory wasn't relying on luck to win rock-paper-scissors. It was through alliances, psychological warfare, and strategy to reduce others' chips with the greatest possible chance.
And based on the current chip count, this one-eyed pirate had the most: 46.
Spirit-state Young Man: 35
Fengfeng: 34
Knight: 31
Mo Shi: 20
The one-eyed pirate would definitely be the first one targeted.
After all, he had too many chips.
But such were the rules, and it was something Ye Qiyan specifically had Zhao Lin hide.
Human hearts are treacherous~ How could they not let these special newcomers experience it properly?
Ye Qiyan even set up a communication period.
With a group of strangers distrusting each other, in a game where individual victory is the true victory, what would it become? Isn't that... something to look forward to?
On the large surveillance screen, the young girl named Mo Shi suddenly let out a laugh.
"Isn't this interesting?"
Clapping her hands happily, she stretched out her hand, making a scissors gesture, and looked at the one-eyed pirate.
"So, can we start now?"
She didn't form an alliance, nor did she have any separate communication with the others.
Waving at the camera.
"For my opponent, I'll choose this pirate uncle~"
She sent the application, giving up the communication time, so there was no need to refuse.
Ye Qiyan nodded, and Zhao Lin manipulated the Game Card, starting the first game in the trial.
A soundproof dark room appeared before them.
While entering it, Mo Shi raised her right hand, making a scissors gesture and snipping the air.
"By the way~"
"I'll play scissors."
The one-eyed pirate's expression became very ugly. He entered the space right after Mo Shi.
All external sounds were completely cut off. The surroundings were pitch black, and even the other person's figure completely disappeared from sight.
All that could be seen were all the chips and a light screen displaying various information.
"Damn it! What should I play? She says she'll play scissors, she's definitely lying, but she'll definitely think I know she's lying, so she'll absolutely play scissors? No, that's not right... Damn it! What the hell should I play!?"
The one-eyed pirate was somewhat frantic. Clearly, he wasn't suited for this kind of game.
"Damn it, whatever! I don't believe she'll play scissors! Playing paper at worst results in a tie! At most, we can look at the outside bets and negate the result, damn it."
Hesitating, he made a paper gesture.
Soon, the external betting results appeared. He saw a [More] character, and instantly, his remaining eye gleamed with light.
"I won!"
And at that very same moment.
He saw the prompt on the screen indicating the opponent had raised the bet.
[Mo Shi has increased the chip count for this game to: 10]
[Do you want to call?]
"Damn lunatic, a little girl really doesn't understand the game. I'm the winner, of course I'll call. No, I'll raise! Doesn't she only have 20 chips? I'll raise to 20!"
He grinned widely, only hoping the other wouldn't spend five chips to negate this round's result.
However.
When the darkness faded.
The one-eyed pirate looked at the 20 chips that suddenly disappeared before his eyes and at Mo Shi's smilingly extended hand making a scissors gesture.
[First Round Winner]
[Mo Shi: 40 chips]
