Chapter 4 The Gamble Begins

The game size is 2G, no wonder Star Games calls it a small game.

In today's era where games can easily consume hundreds of GB, a game with a 2GB capacity is indeed a small game.

Guobago has a gigabit broadband, so for him, the 2G game can be downloaded and installed in a flash.

"Brothers, let's enter the game and show you whether this game that you dare to use to apologize is fun or not. Today, I, Guoba, will test it for you."

As he said that, he double-clicked it to open it.

The ultra-high hardware configuration allows you to enter the game instantly.

Suddenly, the Star Games logo popped up on the screen, followed by the menu interface.

But this interface seems very mediocre.

The entire interface is very monotonous, with just a few bullets falling on a black background.

In the middle are the three conventional options: 'Start', 'Settings', and 'Exit'.

However, considering that this is a free game that is only 2G in size, even if the actual game quality is very good, Guoba does not think that Star Games will spend a lot of time on the menu interface and just do it casually.

The focus is on game content and gameplay.

"Brothers, let's go and show Star Games' sincerity this time."

After saying that, Guoba clicked into the settings first and maxed out everything except the gamma value, with the main focus on enhancing the experience.

Then click 'Start'.

In just a blink of an eye, the game officially begins, and the process is smooth and seamless.

The picture quickly appeared, and what came into view was a small and dim bathroom.

The surrounding environment was pitch black and silent, with only the incandescent light on the ceiling flickering from time to time.

This is a first-person perspective, you can't see your hands or feet, and you can't control the steering.

But in terms of atmosphere, the first impression after entering the game is several times better than the menu interface.

"The atmosphere is good, but it's not enough to just have the atmosphere. The game also needs to have interesting content."

As he spoke, he moved the mouse.

A line of prompts appeared below.

【Click on the door to leave the bathroom. 】

"It seems that it can't move autonomously. It's just a mouse-clicking game."

"2G capacity, and it's of this high quality. Okay, I understand."

He clicked on the dirty-looking bathroom door, and immediately stood up, moved forward quickly, and pushed the door open.

Outside, there is a quiet, narrow, enclosed corridor.

At the end is a dark red door, with solid walls on both sides. The surroundings are also dim, with only the electric lights hanging from the ceiling illuminating slightly.

The camera did not stop, but continued to move forward, arriving at the red door and pushing it open. The process was extremely smooth.

After entering, the first thing that catches your eye is a rusty old table under a dim electric light.

On top of it was a shotgun and a document.

On both sides are some unnamed electronic devices, highlighting the industrial style of the last century.

The whole room was small, depressing and dimly lit.

The devil's game begins at this moment.

He tapped the desktop, and the next second.

In the darkness opposite the old table, a huge single eye as big as a copper bell suddenly opened.

Then his pupils moved downwards and instantly focused on Brother Guoba, staring at him intently.

Because it was pitch black in here, I couldn't see the body and head on the other side. I could only see the obviously huge eyes and the rotten hands clinging to the edge of the table.

However, Guoba Ge is also an experienced game player. Having seen all kinds of storms, he is not afraid of what is happening in front of him at all. Instead, he seems very excited.

"Is this the devil? I can't see anything, just a pair of eyes and hands, why is he so mysterious?"

Guoba brother grinned.

At this moment, a strange, indescribable buzzing sound came from the opposite side.

Along with it, there are subtitles popping up below.

[Please sign the contract agreement.]
The demon spoke, but in an incomprehensible language.

"agreement?"

Guobago's game perspective looked at the document on the desktop.

I clicked on it and saw the title: Release of Liability.

However, the details are too blurry to be clearly seen.

Guoba Ge immediately understood that this was something like a life and death certificate.

"It's quite interesting. The devil is quite law-abiding and knows how to come up with a waiver agreement."

"Then let's enter our own names. Today we must compete with you, a devil, and decide life and death." Guoba Ge entered his own name, and soon, the bright red word "Guoba" appeared prominently at the signature below the contract agreement.

After signing, the game begins.

Three circles appeared on a small display screen next to the table, and the first circle lit up at this moment.

Afterwards, the names and health of both sides appeared on the left and right sides of the screen.

Guoba: Two drops of blood.

Dealer: Two blood points.

Seeing this, Guoba understood the meaning almost immediately.

In the first of three games, each side has two lives, and it depends on who will win.

"I've heard that Western demons are very cunning and won't easily reveal their names. Exorcists have to guess the demon's real name based on clues if they want to exorcise it."

"Now it seems that the other party is indeed cautious. Let's pick a dealer..."

"Come, let me see what a devil you are."

At this moment, an area of ​​the table suddenly flipped over, and three bullets were turned out.

One is red and two are hollow.

An indescribable buzzing sound came from the other side, and the devil spoke.

[One live round. Two blank rounds. I loaded them in a random order.]
As he spoke, two hands at the table grabbed a shotgun.

Sssh-sssh-sssh-sssh

click-

The bullets are loaded, the guns are loaded, the life-and-death battle begins now!
A line of prompts appears again.

[If the person shooting at you is a blank, you will get an extra chance to shoot. Please make a good choice.]

"I go first?"

Guoba clicked the shotgun, and immediately stretched out his hands, grabbing the shotgun with a slight tremor.

It seems that the protagonist controlled by the player is in great psychological torment.

Then two options appeared on the table.

'Shoot yourself.'

'Shoot the dealer.'

Guoba licked his lips, feeling a little excited.

"I took the first move. Sorry, I'm a very courageous person. I've always wanted to try out exciting games like those in the movies."

"Two blanks and one live round. Why don't you shoot yourself in the face as a sign of respect?"

As he said that, he clicked on the option to shoot himself.

In the game, the shotgun was also moved below the neck, and the shiny black hole of the gun was like the god of death, waiting to harvest life.

The gun body was also shaking constantly, highlighting the fear and struggle of the game's protagonist.

The extremely high picture quality and detailed performance in the game made Guoba Ge in front of the screen subconsciously nervous and even swallowed his saliva.

The audience in the live broadcast room also widened their eyes, wondering if the protagonist would be so unlucky as to be shot in the head.

That's it, 3...2...

1--!
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, the protagonist opened fire.

However.
click -

The imagined headshot did not happen, it was a blank bullet!

And the bullet was also ejected.

Guoba immediately breathed a sigh of relief and burst into laughter.

"Hahahaha, I also want to have a good start, but God won't give me the chance."

"I can still fire one more shot now. The gun chamber has one full bullet and one empty bullet. The probability is 50-50. I definitely can't shoot myself."

So this time he chose to shoot the dealer.

At this time, the gun in the game was aimed at the opposite side of the gambling table.

The huge single eye in the darkness showed no fear, and its black pupil stared at the protagonist indifferently.

His right index finger even tapped lightly on the table, making a crisp "dong dong" sound, bringing a sense of urgency and tension to the deadly and depressing atmosphere.

Then, the protagonist fired the gun tremblingly.

just
click -

The bullet popped out, still a blank.

But now, Guoba is disappointed...

Because the next shot is a live bullet, and it is fired by the opposite demon.
　The first game plays a crucial role in setting the world view.
