Matrix Survival: One random treasure chest per day

Li Zheng asked curiously, "Can you tell me how to quit? I'd like to learn something new."

“This…” the casino owner said in a low voice, “This method cannot be heard by the person involved, otherwise it will not work.”

"Okay." Li Zheng didn't press him, and said, "As long as you can get things done, you'll get some benefits."

"Don't worry, sir."

The casino owner gave a signal to his employees, and immediately two burly, towering men with four arms each picked up an open metal box and walked towards Tiger Two.

Li Zheng looked at them curiously. The two boxes contained colorful little balls made of special materials, which seemed to serve the same purpose as the chips he remembered.

Sure enough, Tiger Two's eyes widened when he saw the two boxes. He stared intently at the small balls, unable to look away for a moment, and swallowed hard as he asked, "Are these all for me?"

The two burly men said, "Our boss said you can play with these chips as much as you want. It's okay if you lose them all; you can always get more whenever you need them."

"But there is one condition: you must come to the casino to gamble at the appointed time every day. You are not allowed to be late or leave early. If you violate this rule once, you will have to clean the casino's toilets for three days."

"During this period, the casino will provide you with three meals a day and accommodation. Every seven days, you will also be given two hundred white crystal coins as pocket money. You can save these two hundred coins or buy other food to improve your meals, but you are not allowed to use them for gambling."

"What if I win?" Tiger Two asked greedily, stroking the colorful balls.

"win?"

A burly man said, "If you want to take the money you win, you can, but you must follow the rules of our casino. As long as you agree, you can start working immediately."

"Starting work?"

Tiger Two thought the word was really strange, but he didn't think much of it. He eagerly grabbed a handful of colorful balls and ran towards the electronic gambling machine not far away, shouting, "I agree, let's do it your way!"

He dragged over a stool, sat down, and dropped the ball into the machine, muttering to himself, "The boss is so good to me, giving me money like this! Hehe! I'm the future casino legend!"

The machine started up, its various colored lights flashing, accompanied by exciting sound effects, stimulating the hearts of everyone sitting in front of it and making them involuntarily tense.

Li Zheng saw the casino owner take out something that looked like a remote control and operate the machine a few times. Then the machine emitted a particularly exaggerated rattling sound, and Hu Er immediately jumped up excitedly: "I won! I won! The highest multiplier is one thousand times!"

The next second, he was filled with regret: "Why did I only put in ten white crystal coins as chips?!"

He slapped himself. If he had put all the chips in, he would have made a fortune!

"However, 10,000 white crystal coins will do." He ran up to the casino owner, held out his hand, and said, "Quick, give me the money, 10,000 white crystal coins!"

The casino owner had already hidden the remote control and said with a smile, "Since you want to cash out your winnings, you have to follow the rules. You can only withdraw your winnings when the total amount reaches 500,000 white crystal coins."

However, let me make it clear from the start that the rules are very strict. If you fail to comply with even one of them, a portion of your winnings will be deducted as a penalty. Moreover, once you agree to the agreement, you must comply with it; otherwise, all the chips you were given will become your debt.

Hmm...it's worth about 80 million white crystal coins.

Eighty million white crystal coins!

Upon hearing this number, Tiger Two's first thought wasn't how he would pay off his debts if he broke the rules or changed his mind at the last minute, but rather how much money he would have won if he had invested all 80 million and multiplied it a thousandfold.

He spent a long time mentally calculating but still couldn't figure out how much 80 million multiplied by 1,000 would be.

The casino owner asked with a smile, "So? Have you thought it through? Do you want the bonus or not?" "I want it!" Tiger Two said firmly, "It's just a minimum withdrawal amount of 500,000, right? As long as I'm lucky, it'll be a piece of cake!"

"Alright!" the casino owner announced loudly. "Then the agreement is in effect. It's gambling time. You must begin your gambling within ten seconds, or you will face a fine!"

"Huh? It's starting already?" Hu Er hurriedly returned to the machine, inserted another chip, hesitated for a moment, and then quickly inserted ten chips of the same color.

Just after he threw in the eleventh ball, one of the burly men suddenly walked up to him and shouted, "Violation of the rules! Throwing in the eleventh ball is a fine of one thousand!"

"What?" Hu Er was taken aback: "A fine for this?"

Before he could ask any further questions, the burly man continued loudly, "A moment of distraction during gambling will result in a fine of one thousand!"

Seeing the prize money turn into eight thousand in the blink of an eye, Tiger Two couldn't care less about anything else. He focused his attention back on the machine, pulled down the lever, and watched the lights on the machine flash.

While waiting, he habitually shook his leg a few times. The burly man shouted, "Shaking your leg? A fine of one thousand!"

Tiger Two instantly bristled, no longer daring to shake his leg, forcefully suppressing the instinct to shake his leg, his back hunched in anxiety.

The burly man continued, "Hunchback, fine of one thousand!"

"Your brother!" Tiger Two roared, "You punish me for everything, I'm not playing anymore!"

The burly man's expression remained unchanged as he shouted, "Breach of contract! Debt of eighty million!"

"Wait!" Hu Er turned to look at Li Zheng, gritted his teeth and forced a smile, "I was just joking, it doesn't count."

The burly man ignored him and shouted again, "Distracted, a fine of one thousand! Laughing or joking with others during gambling, a fine of one thousand!"

In less than two minutes, the 10,000 yuan bonus dwindled to only 4,000 yuan. Tiger Two was on the verge of tears. He could only focus his attention on the machine and then lowered his voice to ask the burly man, "Brother, what are the terms and conditions? I forgot to ask earlier. Tell me, and I'll give you half of the bonus when I withdraw it!"

"Slacking off and whispering to others, a fine of one thousand!" The burly man remained unmoved, like a reporting machine, reciting the reasons for Tiger Two's violation.

Can't I even ask?

Tiger Two could only shut up, sit up straight, and stare at the machine with a serious expression, just like a student listening attentively in class.

In the second draw, I won again, but only 100 times the prize.

Furthermore, since Tiger Two had previously placed eleven bets, which was considered a violation, only the principal of ten bets will be counted, which is the prize money of ten thousand.

"Yay!" Tiger Two clenched his fist and cheered, "The prize money is thirteen thousand!"

Five hundred thousand is nothing, it's within easy reach!
He persevered and threw in another ten chips, but his "luck" turned bad again. This time, the winnings were only ten times the payout, bringing his total winnings to 14,000.

The burly man spoke again: "Playing the same gambling game three times in a row will result in a fine of five thousand!"

"grass!"

Tiger Two vomited.
