    Chapter 82 The Believer's Mist

    As soon as the two figures left the hall on the second floor, Zhou Yijue said to Huang Mao next to him, "Go."

    "What if he doesn't agree? Are you looking for someone else?"

    Zhou Yijue's eyes stared not far away, his tone was firm, "You can't convince other people, just him."

    "Okay, I'll go." Huang Mao nodded and walked towards the gaming table in the center of the hall as Zhou Yijue ordered.

    On the edge of the gaming table, a person from the red team was waiting for the end of this round of gaming. He was staring intently at the cards on the table, but his shoulder was suddenly tapped.

    "Hello, hello." Seeing him turn around, Huang Mao smiled earnestly, "Take a step to talk."

    There is actually a "Golden Mountain" hidden in the so-called exchange area, which is what An Wu Jiu did not expect.

    He walked in, and there was nothing in it except the largest gold pusher. There were metal pipes on the ceiling, and a certain section of the pipes was connected to the machine.

    An Wu Jiu approached, and across the glass walls on all sides of the machine, he saw the gold coins piled up inside, what made him concerned was that the pattern on the gold coin was actually a totem of the sun.

    The frequency of this pattern on the altar is too high.

    Turning his head, An Wujiu stared at Shen Ti's Adam's apple.

    Shen Ti noticed it, reached out and touched his neck, "What's wrong?"

    "What is your relationship with the altar?"

    An Wu Jiu suddenly asked this, Shen Ti didn't know how to answer, "Do you think I should be related to the altar?"

    "The tattoo on your neck is very similar to the recurring logo on the altar, except that there is an extra eye in the middle. Don't tell me, you just found a random pattern when you stabbed it."

    An Wujiu added, "Of course, this kind of sun pattern is common, maybe it's a coincidence, but... people like you are not common."

    Sometimes it seems to be a life form other than human beings, and sometimes it seems to be deeply aware of human nature and looking down on all living beings, even he can't give Shen Ti a definition.

    "Really?" Shen Ti smiled, "You're not common either. I'm not sure if I'm related to the altar. Like you, I've lost a lot of memory, and I've basically told you everything I can remember."

    An Wu Jiu is a person who doesn’t like to ask questions very much, after all, he will find out what he wants to know, but facing Shen Ti, he has an urge to listen to what he has to say, as long as he speaks out conclusively, he is willing to Believe.

    "What's wrong?" Shen Ti saw that he was lost in thought, and asked again, "What did you think of?"

    An Wu Jiu was about to answer when suddenly, there was a thick fog in front of him, he couldn't see anything clearly for a while, the fog was getting deeper and deeper, covering everything.

    In front of him is no longer the gold coins piled high in the exchange area, there is nothing.

    "Shen Ti!"

    An Wu Jiu shouted Shen Ti's name in the void, but there was no echo. There was a thick, wet smell from the thick white fog, and the surroundings were silent. Just when he was alert and confused, countless slippery and sticky tentacles suddenly appeared in the depths of the fog, all attacking him.

    An Wu Jiu stretched out his hand to resist, those tentacles could wrap around his limbs without any mistake, the tip of each tentacle suddenly cracked and turned into bloody mouths, the fangs were sticking with sticky green liquid, like The snake-like letter spit out.

    Outside of the illusion, Shen Ti found that An Wu Jiu suddenly stopped talking, he thought he was thinking, but after a while, he realized that something was wrong with him.

    His black eyes seemed to be staring at the exchange machine, but he seemed to have lost his focus, and a golden light reflected in his dilated pupils.

    "An Wu Jiu." Shen Ti felt something was wrong, he reached out and grabbed his arm, "Wu Jiu?"

    He stood between An Wujiu and the exchange machine, holding An Wujiu's face in both hands, "What's wrong with you?"

    Originally thought that the golden light in An Wu Jiu's eyes was the reflection of gold coins, but looking at it this way, it was clearly the weird sun totem in his pupils.

    the sun again...

    An Wujiu had a strange expression on his face, which he had never seen before, Shen Ti had only seen such an expression on the face of a cultist he had met before, that person was deeply immersed in it. In the emptiness of belief, he almost lost his consciousness, dissolved himself, and only followed the Lord in his heart.

    Why is this happening?

    "Wake up, An Wugui."

    An Wu Jiu still didn't respond, he was like a power-off machine, lost its mobility, only an empty shell was left.

    Shen Ti had never seen An Wujiu like this before, he was worried, he first probed his breath with his hand, and then extended it to the side carotid artery to check, his pulse and breathing were normal.

    What's going on?

    Shen Ti stretched out his hand and was about to put it on An Wujiu's chest to check whether his heart beat normally, but the moment his fingers touched his chest, a severe pain hit Shen Ti's body, which he had experienced in his life. greatest pain.

    Like drilling.

    He was almost unable to bear it, but at the same time, An Wu Jiu woke up like a dream, he was breathing heavily, his body swayed slightly. Not caring about the pain in his heart, Shen Ti immediately stretched out his arms and caught the fallen An Wu Jiu.

    An Wu Jiu suddenly woke up from that strange thick fog, as if there was a powerful force invisibly, dragging him out of those tentacles that were entangled in him, allowing him to breathe.

    He left the fog that he couldn't get out of and fell into a warm embrace.

    "No blame, are you alright..."

    In the vagueness, An Wu Jiu heard Shen Ti's voice.

    He woke up and met Shen Ti's eyes, which was different from before. His expression was a little painful, and his brows were wrinkled.

    "I'm fine." An Wu Jiu stood still, his chest was up and down, his lungs seemed to have a bloody hole, no matter how he breathed, the suffocation caused by the tentacles could not be easily recovered.

    The pain in Shen Ti's body gradually subsided, he checked An Wujiu's pupils, and it really recovered.

    "You just seemed to be controlled by something. You couldn't hear me or see me, but your body functions were functioning normally."

    An Wu Jiu noticed that his voice was also a little weak, he never speaks like this, so he asked Shen Ti first, "What about you? Are you not feeling well?"

    Shen Ti didn't expect him to care about himself first, so he just shook his head, "I'm fine."

    Fortunately, he woke up like this.

    "You just said... I seem to be controlled by something."

    An Wujiu thought that many of the dreams he had had before were very similar to the illusion he fell into just now.

    Mist, slime, tentacles, an inescapable fate.

    He told Shen Ti all this, along with many previous nightmares.

    "This should be related to your lost memory." Shen Ti guessed.

    An Wujiu doesn't want to think about it anymore, when he thinks of this, his mental power seems to be weakened, it is difficult to concentrate, and the situation in the nightmare will keep appearing in his mind.

    But what he is now facing is a time-limited life-threatening game.

    "Maybe, anyway, I'm awake now." An Wu Jiu came out of Shen Ti's arms, calmed his breath, and walked to the front of the machine, "Let's go out and investigate further."

    Shen Ti found that he had switched states again, and now An Wu Jiao's state transitions were becoming more frequent and natural, with almost no boundaries.

    It's hard to say that the abnormality in him has nothing to do with his nightmares.

    He suddenly thought of the name of the game.

    Why choose such a religious name?

    An Wu Jiu didn't speak any more, just stretched out his hand and put his palm against the glass.

    Cheerful music suddenly came from the room, and then, a synthesized voice appeared.

    "Welcome to the exchange area, first of all to introduce the rules of chip exchange:

    First, when exchanging chips, at least two players are required, one is the captain, and the other is the player who needs to exchange the winning chips. If the captain himself needs to exchange, he needs to bring a player who has participated in the gambling in the same group. "

    Second, the player who needs to exchange press the red button on the right side of the machine, enter the value of the chips to be exchanged by hand, and then contact the captain to proceed. The exchange takes time to process, please wait for a while.

    Third, the points obtained will be given to you in the form of holy coins. The holy coins have no affiliation. Players can deposit them into their own game panels, or exchange them into chips for players in a certain team.

    Fourth, during the processing of the exchange task, the player can choose to go back and give up the exchange chips, but it needs to be approved by the captain. Just like the exchange, the two people can go back and go back. "

    After listening to the reading of the rules, Shen Ti said: "As expected, you can buy chips after you convert them into points, so you can circulate the chips in the team."

    “But it’s very difficult to achieve.” An Wujiu thought for a while, “According to the set rules, there must be at least two people each time, one of them is the captain, the two need to touch, the captain also has the right to go back, this may be Avoid the appearance of traitors, but in this way, it is easy to create another possibility."

    "You mean the captain's monopoly of power." Shen Ti said.

    An Wujiu nodded, "The captain has too much power, as long as he wants to go back, he can go back. Players can exchange chips for points, and the captain can keep the points for himself."

    Especially a captain like Maguire, who abandons his team members and uses their lives to make money, is most likely to do such a thing.

    "It's all here." Shen Ti turned to look at him, "Do you want to exchange it?"

    "Will it be too early to exchange for points now?" An Wujiu frowned slightly, thinking, "If it is exchanged for points and then buy chips and transfer them to other people, I'm afraid it will cause panic."

    Shen Ti understood what he meant, "You said before that they can use your body as a bargaining chip at any time. Now if you add it to other people, it will indeed make people feel that you want them to be a bargaining chip."

    "That's right." An Wujiu stared at the gold coins in front of him, "I don't really care if they bet on me or not, even if it is, as long as we can survive to the end and get the first place, even if I die, I can be resurrected. It's just that If you give it to others without discussion, Wu You and the others shouldn't care, I'm just afraid that teammates who have only met this round will misunderstand."

    This is indeed a better way at the moment, Shen Ti selfishly does not want An Wu Jiu to put his chips on other people, firstly, it is troublesome, secondly, he can't control other people and does not need to bet on An Wujiu, once his The lower the chip value, the more dangerous the penalty after losing the bet.

    He didn't want to see that scene.

    The two learned of the rules and planned to leave for the time being and return to the casino lobby to tell their teammates the rules. An Wu Jiu has been restless all the time, when he stepped out of the door of the exchange area, he suddenly realized the problem.

    "Why is there no one in this place?"

    They have been here for at least fifteen minutes, and no one has come here.

    While he was in doubt, a familiar figure walked down the corner of the stairs, and the sound of high-heeled shoes was particularly distinct in this silent space.

    "Hi, handsome guys."

    It's Amy.

    She waved her hand and said hello to them, "I knew you would be here, and I thought about trying my luck, and it really happened to me."

    An Wu Jiu guessed that she would come to find him, after all at the gambling table she took the initiative to exchange the guard card with him.

    Nothing is free in this world.

    "What do you want, you can tell me directly."

    An Wu Jiu's face is calm, his eyes are sincere and sincere, completely different from him who is messing with the situation at the gambling table, Amy is stunned when he sees it.

    "What are you talking about, and you say it so seriously." Amy came over and approached him, "I don't want anything."

    Her voice was so ambiguous that Shen Ti couldn't see it, he stretched out his hand and dragged her away from An Wujiu.

    "Why are you dragging me?"

    "There was a bug under your foot just now." Shen Ti opened her eyes and said nonsense. Amy looked down and couldn't find the bug he was talking about. She also raised her foot to see that the soles of her high heels were clean.

    "Don't scare me." Amy said angrily.

    Just as she lifted her foot, An Wu Jiu suddenly discovered a detail, which was very wrong.

    "Your shoe size..." He pointed his finger, looked up at Amy again, frowned slightly, and tilted his head in confusion.

    "Are you a man?"
