Chapter 418 -228: Please Choose Your Cheat!_3
“Hmm? You can’t use it after placing a bet?” Mu Rufeng’s brow furrowed slightly, but he quickly recovered.
Although he couldn’t bet, it didn’t matter; he had plenty of items and skills on him.
“I understand now, to make money, one must be bold, trust me.” Mu Rufeng said, then strode towards the fighting cage.
Seeing Mu Rufeng’s confidence, Zhao Tian thought for a moment, gritted her teeth, and turned to approach her own sisters.
Under the encouragement of the crowd, Mu Rufeng entered the fighting cage.
With a loud bang!, the iron door of the cage securely locked.
To leave the cage, one must win.
“Please choose your opponent, you can bet on your own victory.”
Suddenly, a screen fell from above, displaying the opponents Mu Rufeng could choose from.
Mu Rufeng glanced at it and saw there were two main categories, one for battling abnormal creatures and one for battling guests.
Naturally, Mu Rufeng chose the first category, to battle the abnormal creatures.
The types of abnormal creatures were numerous, at least a dozen, ranging from Level 1 to Level 9.
It was unimaginable that even a Level 9 Ghost Emperor was available, evidencing the formidable nature of Golden City.
Mu Rufeng flipped through, selecting a previously encountered Ghost Beast.
Considering the level, Mu Rufeng pondered and directly chose a Level 7 Ghost Beast.
Having encountered a Level 8 Ghost King before, having even slaughtered one, Zhu Shixuan was extremely powerful; without the “Thunder Element” cheat, he really wouldn’t have won.
So, to be safe, he chose a Level 7 Ghost Beast; at Level 7, he could surely kill it in one blow.
Immediately, Mu Rufeng selected the Level 7 Ghost Beast.
“Mr. Mu, please note, you are a Level 3 Contractor, and you have selected a Level 7 Ghost Beast, are you sure you want to choose a Level 7 Ghost Beast?”
A voice came from the screen. 𝓷ℴ𝓿𝓹𝓾𝓫.𝓬ℴ𝓶
“Certain!” Mu Rufeng clicked on the Level 7 Ghost Beast once more.
“The opponent selection is complete, Level 3 Contractor Mr. Mu will battle a Level 7 Ghost Beast, the fight will commence in three minutes. Please start placing your bets!”
As the voice fell, the surrounding patrons burst into an uproar again.
“Damn, is this guy an idiot, a Level 3 Contractor choosing a Level 7 Ghost Beast?”
“Maybe he pressed the wrong button?”
“Pressed the wrong button? Twice?”
“Is this guy courting death?”
“Could it be that he has some powerful item or ability that can defeat a Level 7 Ghost Beast?”
“Are you kidding, don’t you know, in the fighting cage, only one’s own abilities and ordinary items can be used, and Rule Type Items cannot be used, even a Level 9 item can’t bridge the gap between them.”
“This is a Level 3 Contractor, he must be new here, he probably doesn’t know that Rule Type Items can’t be used.”
“Ha-ha, so betting on the Ghost Beast is a guaranteed win?”
“Even though a sure win, I expect the odds are very low.”
“Low? It doesn’t matter, winning is enough; I haven’t won once today, I’m going all in this time.”
A chorus of strange discussions erupted, faces laughing, and as they looked towards Mu Rufeng, they scoffed before beginning to place their bets.
At this moment, Zhao Tian had also borrowed a good amount of Soul Power from her sisters, totaling about three thousand Soul Power, plus her own over a thousand, making it four thousand five hundred Soul Power.
Those sisters had some relationship, but would not give everything; having signed a Contract with high interest, she only borrowed five hundred Soul Power from each of them.
These sisters also followed to watch the spectacle.
When Zhao Tian saw that Mu Rufeng had chosen a Level 7 Ghost Beast, she was dumbfounded.
She originally thought Mu Rufeng would choose Level 4, at most Level 5; but Level 7? Could she still dare to bet?
“Zhao Tian, this Contractor is challenging a Level 7 Ghost Beast?”
“I see why you came to borrow Soul Power from us, you’re really cunning, betting on the Ghost Beast is a sure win.”
“Although the payoff might be lower, making some profit is still no problem, I’m going all in on the Ghost Beast.”
Several of the sisters prepared to place their bets.
“Wait, I’m betting on the Contractor,” Zhao Tian suddenly spoke up.
“Huh? Zhao Tian, who did you say you’re betting on?”
“Zhao Tian, are you crazy? You said you’re betting on the Contractor?”
“I mean, you borrowed Soul Power from us not to bet on the sure-win Ghost Beast, but on the Level 3 Contractor???”
“If you bet like this, isn’t it certain to lose, no way, give us back our Soul Power now.”
“Right, return my Soul Power.”
The group of sisters around Zhao Tian looked at her with shock, as if they were watching an idiot.
Hearing this, Zhao Tian’s expression turned sour; after a moment of silence, she spoke: “We’ve already signed the Contract agreement, I borrowed for a day, I’ll return it tomorrow.”
“A Level 3 Contractor challenging a Level 7, do you think he’s foolish? Does he want to die? If you believe me, then bet on the Contractor, bet on a one-hit kill.”
Zhao Tian wasn’t foolish, although she felt that Mu Rufeng, being Level 3 against Level 7, had no chance of winning.
But that kind of confidence Mu Rufeng exuded, that unruffled self-assurance and the wealth he possessed, didn’t seem like someone recklessly rushing to his death.
Therefore, Zhao Tian chose to believe in Mu Rufeng.
She glanced at the odds, the simplest victory or defeat, Mu Rufeng’s victory was at odds of 1:10
While the Ghost Beast’s victory was at odds of 1:0.1
Looking at other categories, like how long Mu Rufeng could last, how many moves he could withstand, including whether the Ghost Beast could kill with one strike or require multiple moves, each type of bet had significantly different odds.
