Chapter 130: Intoxicated Moan
After s.h.i.+ Xiaobai finished drinking the gla.s.s of red wine in one gulp, he immediately widened his eyes.
Hisith smiled delightfully in his mind as he began to be filled with antic.i.p.ation. He was looking forward to s.h.i.+ Xiaobai grasping his neck in pain while screaming and writhing on the ground. Following that, he would reveal the truth that “all three gla.s.ses of red wine are poisoned” which would result in s.h.i.+ Xiaobai roar that it was “unfair”. Finally, s.h.i.+ Xiaobai would suffer both a physical and mental collapse from the dual setback he experienced.
“This would definitely be ‘interesting’.”
At this moment, Hisith laughed.
However, Hisith was left dumbfounded the next second. This was because after s.h.i.+ Xiaobai stared widely with his eyes, he did not grasp his neck and scream out loud. Instead he blinked and licked his lips. Next, he reached out his hand to pick up another gla.s.s of red wine!
s.h.i.+ Xiaobai noticed how Hisith was using a pair of glazed eyes to look at him and immediately felt a bit embarra.s.sed. After he finished drinking the first gla.s.s of red wine, he only found it f.u.c.king delicious. It was so tasty that he was completely bewildered!
s.h.i.+ Xiaobai had enjoyed the entire process and could not help but pick up another gla.s.s of red wine. Noticing how Hisith did not stop him, s.h.i.+ Xiaobai grinned and moved the gla.s.s to his mouth like a gluttonous child. This time, he did not drink it in one gulp but savored it bit by bit as he did not want to finish it too quickly.
s.h.i.+ Xiaobai moved his gaze towards the third gla.s.s of red wine as his hand involuntarily reached over. Taking a secret glance at Hisith, he realized that he wasn’t stopped, and immediately had the opinion that Instructor Sisi was a very nice person.
This King shall kindly accept this red wine!
s.h.i.+ Xiaobai picked up and drank the last gla.s.s of red wine!
“Hic!”
After s.h.i.+ Xiaobai exhaled blissfully, but he involuntarily produced an alcohol-induced hiccup.
Hisith was dumbfounded.
What the f.u.c.k was going on!?
s.h.i.+ Xiaobai smiled and said, “After This King’s validation, the three gla.s.ses of wine are without poison, so does this mean that This King has pa.s.sed this little game?”
Hisith gaped his mouth and quickly picked up the bottle of red wine and took a mouthful.
“Pu!”
Hisith spat out the mouthful of red wine immediately.
This red wine was poisonous!
That’s not right, it was meant to have poison!
That’s not right, the red wine was poisonous, but why!?
Hisith immediately looked at s.h.i.+ Xiaobai with extreme suspicion. Why didn’t the poison in the three gla.s.ses of wine take any effect? Could he have forgotten that the “Bonechewer Medicinal Agent” wasn’t immediate but actually had a delayed effect?
Just as Hisith had this thought, s.h.i.+ Xiaobai suddenly stretched out his hand and held his throat. His eyes stared widely as though he was in great pain!
Hisith’s eyes immediately lit up.
So that was it. This “Bonechewer Medicinal Agent” must have been an inferior imitation for it to have such delayed effects. Finally, it has shown its effects!
s.h.i.+ Xiaobai finally realized this when the poison took its effects. This was because he felt an intense pain rise up through his body. He immediately remembered that Hisith had said how there was only one gla.s.s of wine that did not have any poison, but he had drank all three gla.s.ses. That meant that he had drank two gla.s.ses of poisonous wine!
s.h.i.+ Xiaobai grasped his neck and immediately began to use “Unleaking Turtle Aura” to suppress the pain, then…
Then s.h.i.+ Xiaobai suddenly removed his hands from his neck. His widely staring eyes also returned to normal and he immediately turned expressionless.
This was because s.h.i.+ Xiaobai recalled something, something very important.
He remembered that back at the virtual compet.i.tion, he had encountered a bonus Absolute Choice. After the Arch-Cardinal shouted “hubby” three times, he had obtained a C-level reward of “Poison Resistance”. He could automatically filter out 80% of toxins.
This meant that the poison in the red wine could only deal 20% of poison damage to him.
Indeed, once s.h.i.+ Xiaobai used “Unleaking Turtle Aura”, the slight pain that rose up in his body became more reminiscent of an itch. 20% of the poison’s toxins was insufficient to deal too much damage to him.
After a while, s.h.i.+ Xiaobai suddenly felt a refres.h.i.+ng feeling spread through his entire body. He was immediately surprised because this feeling was rather familiar. He immediately realized that this was the effect of “This Turtle Is Hardest”!
Following that, s.h.i.+ Xiaobai felt his flesh and blood defense value slowly rise. 1…2…2.5…
The damage from being poisoned could be used as a body-tempering method for “This Turtle Is Hardest”!
s.h.i.+ Xiaobai immediately understood that he just needed to receive damage to become stronger!
At this moment, This Turtle Is Hardest responded immediately when the poison took its effects. A sore but refres.h.i.+ng feeling swept through his body as s.h.i.+ Xiaobai could not help but moan due to the overwhelming intoxication he experienced.
Hisith was already dumbfounded when he saw s.h.i.+ Xiaobai’s look of enjoyment. Hearing s.h.i.+ Xiaobai let out such a satisfied moan, he immediately felt like he had been struck by lightning.
s.h.i.+ Xiaobai’s face turned slightly red. It was unknown if it was because of the alcoholic effects or because of his embarra.s.sment, but when he raised the gla.s.s at Hisith, his face was flushed red.
s.h.i.+ Xiaobai asked softly, “Can This King…get another one?”
…
…
A few minutes later, s.h.i.+ Xiaobai found it quite a pity because regardless of how much he begged, Hisith remained glum and refused to give him another gla.s.s of red wine.
The red wine was tasty and could also temper his body. Furthermore, he felt a thoroughly refres.h.i.+ng feeling after drinking it. It was not a poison but a drug!
s.h.i.+ Xiaobai looked earnestly at the bottle of red wine, but he quickly remembered that he had serious matters to attend to. He said, “This King can now challenge your ‘somewhat difficult’ game, right? If not, why don’t you just tell Chen Lingcun’s location to This King?”
When Hisith heard this, he turned his head stiffly and let out a cold sneer. A killing intent flashed in his eyes, but soon, that killing intent calmed down.
At this moment, he realized that it was not the fault of the poisonous wine but rather, the fault lied in s.h.i.+ Xiaobai. He was unafraid of poison!
Not only had the little game failed to achieve the effects he antic.i.p.ated, but he had also nearly died from anger because of s.h.i.+ Xiaobai.
f.u.c.k, you even want another gla.s.s? Do you know how expensive this bottle of red wine is?
That’s not right. This wasn’t the main point.
The main point was how was he to continue playing this game?
Hisith fell into silence and began to experience a struggling dilemma. Since he was prepared to bet his all on what the Abyss Ghost King had said to him, he could teach s.h.i.+ Xiaobai a lesson before using the name of “Abyss” to calm Kali down and force her to compromise. The easiest and most direct method would be to throw a few cursed Clubs cards and make s.h.i.+ Xiaobai taste what it meant to experience h.e.l.l on earth.
In fact, Hisith did not believe Kali would offend the “Abyss” because of s.h.i.+ Xiaobai as well. After all, s.h.i.+ Xiaobai was just a person with some talent.
However, Hisith did not want to do it because s.h.i.+ Xiaobai had completed three of his games.
Hisith could not bear destroying a toy that provided “interest” to him in a fit of anger. The “interesting” toy had challenged the games he designed again and again, and when it finally suffered failure, Hisith would be able to enjoy its failure the most.
“In that case, you can challenge a ‘somewhat difficult’ game. If you are able to succeed in the challenge, so what if I tell you everything?”
Hisith had already made up his mind. Since the next game could bring pain to s.h.i.+ Xiaobai, vent his anger, as well as allowing him to enjoy the feeling of a toy being played to brokenness, why not spend a bit of time to play a game?
The corner of Hisith’s mouth curled into a sneer as he suddenly waved his hand.
Dozens of poker cards suddenly flew out before they formed the shape of a door!
Immediately following that, the places where the poker cards interleaved each other shot out beams of light, eventually combining into a blinding light.
A door of light formed from poker cards appeared in the office in seconds while a cold eerie aura emanated from inside the door.
“Behind this door is This King’s Underworld. If you dare enter it, This King will make you witness what…a true game is!”
At this moment, Underworld King Hisith had managed to address himself as “This King” in front of s.h.i.+ Xiaobai!
