Hell Game: Starting from Metropolis

Liu Zheng quickly caught the relic, and an item description immediately popped up.

Name: Black Carp Dragon's Relic (One-Time Use)

Type: Item

Quality: Perfect

"Effect: There is a 99% chance of instant death after use, and a 1% chance of gaining the 'Great Fortune' status."

"Note: I'm not reconciled! I'm not reconciled! I hate it! I hate it!"

"Can it be taken out of the instance: No"

"Great Fortune: Player's luck value is increased to MAX, lasting for one hour."

Good heavens, Liu Zheng exclaimed.

If his luck is at its maximum for an hour, he can become the owner of a black market casino and empty the scratch-off lottery jackpot.

As expected of a prop of perfect quality, the effect is truly impressive.

Of course, the triggering conditions are also quite stringent.

The one percent chance of getting a positive effect was already enough to leave Liu Zheng speechless, but the ninety-nine percent chance of triggering an instant death effect made him roll his eyes.

If he could escape death, his luck would already be considered "extremely fortunate".

"How about that? Am I generous enough?"

The sewer asked.

"Your offer is very generous. However, I'm afraid I'm not worthy of it."

Liu Zheng smiled wryly.

"That's your problem. I guarantee that no one else can give you the same results as me."

"The sewer said confidently."

"That's strong enough."

He put away the relic with a pained expression.

He acquired another deadly weapon, the innate self-destructing truck holy body.

"Could this black carp dragon be an evolved form of a black koi?"

Liu Zheng asked casually.

"That's right. Upon first ascending the Dragon Gate, clouds and rain followed, and heavenly fire burned its tail from behind, thus transforming it into a dragon."

The sewer recited a passage of classical Chinese.

"Then why didn't it fly away?"

"I haven't left, so why should it?"

He said it was only natural to go into the water.

"Um"

He didn't know how to answer.

"Of course, it's not entirely out of jealousy. It eats my food, drinks my water, and uses my luck to leap over the Dragon Gate."

"If it gets away, it'll be like I'm missing a piece of myself. It's not a big problem, but I don't need to let it go."

"That's what the sewer said coldly."

"understood."

Liu Zheng was reluctant to comment on the feud between the two.

"Then why don't you just grind its bones to dust and scatter them in the river as fertilizer? Why keep its remains?"

he asked again.

"The carp leaping over the dragon gate is already a rare occurrence, and the transformation of a black koi into a dragon is even rarer. Even if I wanted to deliberately make it happen, it would be almost impossible. Of course, we should keep it."

"See, this is where it comes in handy!"

The sewer said rather smugly.

"Impressive, impressive! No wonder it is the most intelligent will; truly farsighted."

Liu Zheng skillfully offered flattery.

"You're not bad either. Although you're far less skilled than the fisherman, you're much better at serving people."

The sewer tapped him on the shoulder.

"Don't dare."

He was flattered and overwhelmed.

"Catch my clone back as soon as possible, so I can replenish my strength."

The sewers said.

"what?"

"Do you really think I can be reborn as a fisherman without paying a price?"

The sound from the sewer grew fainter and fainter until it was completely silent.

Chapter 437 Negotiation with weapons is indeed no match for negotiation with weapons.

"grass!"

The fisherman suddenly cursed.

"Hey, why are you swearing out of the blue?"

Liu Zheng said with dissatisfaction.

"You try it now. Do you know how painful it is to be afflicted like this?"

The fisherman glared at him.

"I don't know. You big shots should enjoy this kind of blessing. I can't afford it."

He shrugged.

The sewer workers are the big bosses, the fishermen are the mid-level bosses, and the cattle and horses are the minor bosses—they're all big bosses anyway.

As for the Speaker of the Supreme Council? That's a big shot.

"Hmph. Get lost, I'm going to lie down for a while. Damn it, I've only known you for a few days, but I've suffered more than I have in the previous decades."

The fisherman muttered curses.

Why don't you mention that you've accomplished more than you have in the previous decades?

Liu Zheng rolled his eyes.

"Are you going to get out of here or not? If you don't, I'm going to kick you out."

The fisherman's right hand transformed into a harpoon, glaring menacingly at him.

"Get out of here."

He said aggressively.

Of course, rolling is impossible; Si Xuelai is more likely to do it.

"By the way, where did Brother Sha go?"

Liu Zheng asked casually.

"He went for a stroll, saying he wanted to see if he could find the mouth of the river."

"That's what the fisherman said."

"He wouldn't be thinking of fleeing overseas, would he?"

"Possibly. But expecting you to drop the warrant for his arrest is a pipe dream. Besides, he's not the type to bother his friends."

The fisherman replied.

"You two seem to get along quite well."

He raised his eyebrows.

"There are only two of us living here, it would be strange if we weren't familiar with each other."

The fisherman remained silent.

"Didn't they say there are many people who couldn't make it on the surface and fled to the sewers?"

"Spending too much time in the sewers makes a person less human. Besides, even if I retain my sanity, not just anyone is qualified to communicate with me."

The fisherman said proudly.

"Yes, yes, who are you, sir? The sewer boss, the fishing tycoon of the metropolis."

Liu Zheng's flattery came out of his mouth without hesitation.

"It's good to know."

"Could Brother Sha really have found the mouth of the sea?"

He asked with concern.

"If I can't find it, it would be a miracle if he could. Even if he did find it, he probably wouldn't be able to get out."

"That's what the fisherman said."

"How did that mermaid princess sneak in?"

"Don't you understand the principle of 'easy entry, strict exit'? Every year, the city hall spends a lot of manpower and resources to bring in people from overseas. Why wouldn't they be happy to have people actively coming to enrich the population structure of the metropolis?"

The fisherman replied.

"Ok."

Liu Zheng recalled the black humanoid figure outside the abyss and the tentacles reaching out from the portal.

It seems the city hall doesn't welcome just any immigrant.

"gone."

He waved his tentacles and returned to the ground.

"What's the situation?"

Liu Zheng walked back to the plane tree and asked.

"I just sensed someone spying on me, but they were far away, so I don't know if it was those black-armored men."

"That's what the Nile doctor said."

"If they're not close, we don't need to worry about them. You guys keep an eye on them, I'm going to pick someone up from get off work and I'll be back."

He said.

"Male and female?"

"The Nile doctor asked."

"The fisherman's daughter."

Liu Zheng replied.

"Humph."

Guo Kou Tangzi snorted, but he pretended not to hear.

"You're really good at ordering people around, going on your own date while we're stuck here waiting, huh?"

The Nile doctor was somewhat dissatisfied.

Since escaping the Bloody Restaurant, he has been disrespected wherever he goes. He is considered a prominent figure on the street. Even if they are close friends, they shouldn't treat him like this.

"No, you've misunderstood."

Liu Zheng recounted the story of the fisherman and the bald monk.
