Chapter 459 Spikes
"Wait, I object." The tattooed and chained burly man suddenly stood up and said, "I don't think it's necessary to go through so much trouble. Just give me the reward. I can pay you extra!"
As the burly man with iron chains wrapped around his body spoke, he suddenly picked up a suitcase from under his feet and threw it on the coffee table, which made a noise. Then he opened the lid of the suitcase.
When the suitcase was opened, a golden light flashed inside. It turned out that it was full of gold bars.
Each one of them was marked with an unknown emblem.
It looks very visually impactful.
Even though he knew that gold had almost no value, Zhang Tuohai couldn't help but breathe heavily when he saw so much gold.
The other players around had similar reactions.
It seems that the value standards brought by the original world, as well as considerable inertia, will be hidden deep in people's hearts and will not disappear so easily.
Seeing the looks of the people around him, the sturdy man with chains on his body grinned, revealing a smile that was uglier than crying: "How about it? Sir, if you are willing to give the inheritance to me, then all this gold will be yours."
Hearing the sturdy man 's words, Zhang Tuohai couldn't help but look at him twice again.
He actually wants to bribe the NPC, which shows that he has some ideas, and he doesn't look as brainless as his appearance suggests.
However, Zhang Tuohai didn't think he could succeed.
Since the game system dares to send such a person to supervise and guide, there must be considerations, and he must have some extraordinary qualities. Otherwise, the players will unite together, kidnap each other directly, and agree on the distribution of benefits to pass the level directly.
Zhang Tuohai didn't say anything. He leaned back slightly with a look of watching a show on his face.
The cheongsam woman sitting next to the burly man raised the round fan in her hand, moved away from the burly man without making a sound, and her beautiful eyes kept scanning the people around her.
The otaku wearing a Rem T-shirt pushed up his black-framed glasses and distanced himself from the burly man without leaving a trace.
Garrison didn't say much, but he had already put one hand into his sleeve.
As for the man who looked like a snowman transformer and the hippie with a Mohawk on Zhang Tuohai's right, they didn't show any obvious expression. They were staring blankly at the box of shining gold bars.
"How about it? Do you agree? If you think it's too little, I can add more."
The burly man with chains around his body said this, and then he took out a black velvet bag, opened it and threw it on the table.
Inside the bag were gems of various sizes, sparkling under the light.
"Is it enough with these?" the sturdy man with iron chains wrapped around his body said coldly.
Seeing that the middle-aged man who looked like a butler was still unmoved, the sturdy man with iron chains on his body looked a little unhappy. He pulled out a thick M500 from his waist and pointed it at the butler: "I'll give you one last chance to choose. Do you want to do what I say and then take the money and live a carefree life, or do you want me to make a hole in your head? Don't blame me for not giving you a chance to choose."
"It was detected that the player tried to threaten the guide to change the rules and impose penalties."
A cold voice sounded from nowhere, surrounding everyone's ears.
When everyone heard the sound, they looked around vigilantly, looking for the source of the sound.
The sturdy man with chains on his body changed his expression, and hurriedly put the M500 in the holster, saying: "Wait, doesn't the rule say that you can't attack any NPCs? I didn't attack those NPCs, I didn't even touch a finger, it can't be considered a foul..."
Before the sturdy man with iron chains could finish his words, a spike as thick as his forearm pierced out from the sofa, entered from the sturdy man's coccyx, pierced out from the top of the skull, and many sharp spikes pierced out from the main trunk .
These thorns were as thick as a thumb, sticking out from the main trunk, growing more than a foot long, and piercing from various parts of the strong man's body.
At this time, the strong man's body looked intact on the surface, but his internal organs had been completely crushed.
It seems that there is no way to survive.
However, everyone around moved their butts unconsciously when they saw this.
Anyone would feel uncomfortable if they thought there was such a thing buried under the sofa they were sitting on.
Even the woman who was sitting next to the sturdy man and holding a round fan just moved to the side. However, she did not scream out in fear. Instead, she looked at the sturdy man with interest, and a hint of excitement flashed in her eyes.
Zhang Tuohai secretly looked at the people around him and sighed in his heart, as expected, those who can come here are not stupid people.
The strong man must have been in front of other indigenous people, using gold to pave the way for them and was always successful. As a result, he became arrogant and ended up capsizing here.
The butler-like man looked at the people around him and saw that no one spoke, so he continued in a deep voice: "Since no one has any objections, I will read the will."
The man who looked like a butler took out a piece of paper from his pocket and began to read: "According to Mr. Fox's will, all heirs must wait in Red Maple Manor until 18:00 in the evening. During this time, all players 18:00 in the evening. All living players need to vote for an heir, and the heir with the most votes will receive the entire estate."
The butler finished reading the will in a cold tone.
"Just stay in the manor? There are no restrictions on what we can do?" The hippie suddenly became eager to try.
"Of course not."
The butler sneered: "Every time the specified time comes, you must complete a task or game. You cannot refuse, otherwise you will end up like this idiot."
"Okay, I get it, old man, stop talking nonsense, can we move now?" the hippie asked impatiently.
"No, on the contrary, you need to complete your first task."
The butler took out a bell from his pocket and shook it twice.
Immediately, a maid in black and white maid uniform pushed in a glittering dining cart filled with a variety of food.
There were pork elbows, steaks, lobsters, foie gras, and Zhang Tuohai even saw a whole roasted suckling pig.
All the food smells delicious.
Many players have been waiting here since morning, and their stomachs are already rumbling with hunger.
If there hadn't been a dead body nearby, they would have passed by long ago.
The dining cart was pushed next to the sofa.
"Now, please ask each participant to choose one food in order. Remember, it can only be one, no more, no less."
"By the way, here's a tip for you all," the butler paused and continued, "This is your only chance to eat before 18:00 in the afternoon, so please choose carefully."
