95: A gamble on the outcome! Easy wins!
"This is..." Su Lie was so excited he felt like crying.
He missed his life on Blue Star a little.
The battlefield vision was a full map view.
The map was divided into two spawn points, one red and one green.
There were a total of three lanes, separated by a river in the middle.
Unlike MOBA games, there were no defense towers on the lanes.
There were no crystals at the spawn points.
The overall terrain was only similar to MOBA maps, but there were huge differences.
This map was predominantly a jungle and mountainous environment.
After the No. 8 Little Skeleton spawned at the spawn point with the other four Little Skeletons, they immediately rushed into the nearby jungle.
They explored the surrounding environment and arranged for their teammates to guard the three routes.
Under the Invisibility Skill of the night demon armor, they quickly entered the Invisibility state.
The enemies were six-meter-tall Bearman Warriors.
The Bearman Warriors held giant axes and wore Silver Secret Pattern Battle Armor.
Their combat strategy was different from the Little Skeletons.
The Bearmen chose to act collectively.
They used one Bearman Warrior as a decoy walking in front, while the others hid in the jungle on both sides of the road.
However, due to their massive size, their movement startled the birds in the jungle, causing a noticeable commotion.
After Su Lie looked at the map, he raised his head and looked around.
He found that the Player opposite him was just a ball of light.
After the ball of light remained silent for a moment, it finally asked Su Lie, "Dare to make a wager?"
"Wager what?" Su Lie asked.
He noticed that when the opponent asked about a wager, a betting invitation appeared in his line of sight.
By spending 100 Mist Points, he could set up a bet.
Since both he and his opponent were newly promoted Apprentice Chess Players, they could only wager Lifespan and Mist Points.
"I wager 100,000 Mist Points! That my side wins!" the opponent replied.
After thinking, Su Lie decided to pay 100 Mist Points to participate in this wager.
After he pre-paid 100,000 Mist Points for the wager.
[Buzz!]
[The bet is established!]
[The total Mist Points for this wager is 200,000!]
[The winner will receive all the points!]
The prompt from the mist rule appeared in his line of sight.
Su Lie lowered his head and looked at the chessboard.
Soon, the Bearman Warrior approached the Little Skeleton on the middle lane.
No. 8, who was in Invisibility on this lane, raised his Mist Pistol when he was 500 meters away from the opponent.
He revealed himself from the Invisibility state.
The Bearman Warrior saw the Little Skeleton, first freezing, then laughing: "You lowly Skeleton Warrior! Grandpa is going to brutally ravage you!"
Saying that, the Bearman Warrior swung the weapon in its hand and charged toward the No. 8 Little Skeleton.
Its contemptuous voice and actions were heard clearly by Su Lie.
Bang!
The next second, the Little Skeleton pulled the trigger.
Su Lie only saw a black orb flash past like lightning.
He didn't even see where the black orb was shot.
"Ah!" The Bearman Warrior let out a deafening wail of pain.
Bang!
Two seconds later, the Bearman Warrior died under the Soul Fire Bullet Skill of the No. 8 Little Skeleton.
After its massive body collapsed to the ground, it turned into a stream of particles and disappeared from the spot along with its equipment.
Su Lie noticed that the 5V5 indicator in the middle of his vision had changed to 5V4.
"Damn it!" The Player opposite couldn't help but curse: "Vile! Shameless! This isn't fair!"
Su Lie's lips curved slightly.
The Soul Flying Missile Skill could directly affect the enemy's soul, causing damage to the enemy's soul, which ordinary battle armor simply couldn't withstand.
Under the enhancement of the Mist Pistol, the Skill possessed 10 times the base damage, a range of 30 kilometers, and a firing speed of 20,000 meters per second.
This was enough to give the Soul Fire Bullet the power of a high-power forbidden killing move!
The reason the No. 8 Little Skeleton killed the enemy at such close range was not due to unfamiliarity with the Mist Pistol, but to confuse the enemy and prevent the enemy from judging the attack range of the weapon it held.
"A good tactic!" Su Lie couldn't help but mutter softly.
Whoosh!
At this moment, the other Bearman Warriors hiding in the bushes finally rushed out of the jungle.
They hadn't yet seen the death of their comrade.
They were just charging according to their offensive strategy.
After running out, the No. 8 Little Skeleton immediately fired a continuous volley at them.
The firing rate of the Mist Pistol was 10 rounds per second.
As long as the No. 8 Little Skeleton's hand speed was fast enough, it could instantly kill all the enemies.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
The four Bearman Warriors fell backward the instant they swung their giant axes.
Two seconds later, they disintegrated into streams of light and vanished.
The light and shadow shifted before Su Lie's eyes, and the settlement screen appeared.
[Congratulations on completing your first victory as an Apprentice Chess Player on the mist legion chessboard, and winning the wager of 200,000 Mist Points!]
[Congratulations on successfully being promoted to Level 1 Amateur Chess Player!]
[Level 1 Amateur Chess Player privileges: Resource wagers, point wagers, Lifespan wagers.
Each victory comes with a chessboard reward.
Each of your pieces gains permission for 1 storage slot on the battlefield.
Note: The storage slot allows resources and items from the battlefield to be brought back to reality.
This resource is material outside the reward and is not counted as a reward.]
[You have successfully completed the recognition ceremony with the chessboard, please continue your efforts!]
[You have used up today's match quota, please try again another day!]
... Looking at the screen before him.
Su Lie's lips curved slightly upward.
He quickly exited the chessboard interface.
Returning to reality, he looked at his panel.
He found that his Mist Points had changed from 3,134,450 to 3,334,450.
Clearly, the mist legion chessboard could directly deduct or add Mist Points for the Player.
Su Lie looked at No. 8 and the other four Little Skeletons who had just left the battlefield and said, "You did well! From now on, No. 8 will be your Commander!"
Clatter!
The No. 8 Little Skeleton led the way, kneeling on the ground, excitedly knocking its head.
Su Liya, standing beside him, also smiled happily and said to Su Lie, "Master! No. 8 said it definitely won't let you down!"
"Good!" Su Lie immediately arranged: "No. 8! Starting today, your squad will cease all collecting, farming, and other work, and focus solely on practicing marksmanship and tactics!"
"I will set up a combat laboratory for you on the second floor, where you will conduct battle reviews, and discuss experience and tactics!"
He looked up and said to Liya: "Liya! Arrange for the Little Skeletons to section off a 1,000 square meter space on the second floor!"
"Yes!" Su Liya immediately got to work after hearing this.
Currently, there were hundreds of Little Skeletons outside waiting for tasks.
This task was perfect for utilizing them.
Afterward, Su Lie looked at the two blueprints inside the ruyi pouch.
One was a god-tier quality multifunctional rice milling machine manufacturing blueprint, and the other was a green excellent quality sorghum wine brewing recipe.
One of these two blueprints had been shelved by Su Lie because it was temporarily useless, and the other could not be manufactured due to a lack of materials.
He shook his head.
Then, he stood up, picked up his storage pouch, and took out the divine breath venom, fantasy mushroom, corrosive red date, blood burst red date, Cold Spring water, Strange Fragrant Chestnut, and monster crystal required to manufacture the Wonder-Scent Burst-Thud Fruit.
"A single Wonder-Scent Burst-Thud Fruit managed to wipe out a nest of elite giant rats on the Mountain God's side! I must feed them a few more so all the rats there die suddenly!"
Su Lie used the Permanent Treasure Refining Skill.
Before long, he refined 10 Wonder-Scent Burst-Thud Fruits, disguised them as Blood-Nourishing Red Datess, and casually placed them on the Eight Immortals Table.
"I also need to prepare for the evening acquisition! 1 billion big hairy chestnuts..." Su Lie calculated silently.
The reason for this was that he realized that equipping a Legion required massive amounts of monster crystals and other materials.
Just equipping 554 Little Skeletons with Mist Pistols consumed nearly 600 million monster crystals.
If he had to gather the materials by himself, he might not be able to collect enough within a year.
Only by acquiring them from other Survivors could he quickly obtain massive resources.
In just seven days, out of the over 90 billion Survivors, only over 10 billion remained.
If time went on, there would be even fewer Survivors alive.
At that point, obtaining so many resources quickly would only be possible by waiting.
He needed to take advantage of the fact that there were still over 10 billion Survivors to acquire as many high-consumption resources like monster crystal as possible.
"200 times! I need to repeatedly make sacrifices 200 times to gather 1 billion big hairy chestnuts!
Each time consumes 200 monster crystals, totaling 40,000 monster crystals!"
Su Lie came to the Sacrifice Garden and began sacrificing: "Hehe! 1 billion big hairy chestnuts nurtured at the cost of 40,000 monster crystals can bring me a return of 10 billion monster crystals! That truly feels great!"
