Crime Prison Island
Chapter 666 - 308: Take a Gamble!

Chapter 666: Chapter 308: Take a Gamble!

The two people who returned to their original small base were currently in a heavenly battle.

Big White Shark said coldly, "What did he mean by his last sentence? Is he laying the groundwork to break his promise and kill us?"

"By then, he’ll take away our trump cards and turn on us, and we’ll have no way out."

Mandala solemnly said, "I think he’s intentionally saying that to entice us to make a move."

"I can’t believe he didn’t expect the threat we’d pose during the ceasefire."

Big White Shark glanced at him sideways, "But he agreed so decisively. Do they have some countermeasures?"

Mandala pondered, "They certainly have countermeasures. First of all, none of us are involved in the negotiations, so the length of the talks is entirely up to them."

"I’ve been through negotiations, the process is simple. Each person states their demands, followed by the Angel Envoy’s evaluation."

"Once the content is confirmed and the transfers are real, the agreement is handed over for a vote by the negotiators. If everyone agrees, the ceasefire phase ends."

"In other words, they can casually send two people, quickly finalize an agreement, and take all our cards and weapons in just a few minutes."

Big White Shark raised an eyebrow, "So, even if we try to root out traitors, they can drag it out until the negotiation ends."

"After all, we’re only two people, and we need another person to vote. As long as the third person doesn’t vote, they can delay for five minutes."

"And if the negotiation ends successfully during this time, our betrayal attempt would fail."

He imagined the two of them trying to root out traitors, only to be delayed by the third person until the peace phase.

Then all their cards would be confiscated, and they’d die miserably for breaking the agreement.

How could such a thing be acceptable?

"Damn it, if only Lester were still here, the three of us could have taken hostages and killed whomever we wanted."

"We really shouldn’t have let him go to his death."

Mandala laughed and shook his head at Big White Shark, "Without him sacrificing himself, the sub-dragon card would have been wasted."

"We wouldn’t have had the chance to complete the previous intimidation and force the opponent into a ceasefire."

"If we couldn’t even get into a ceasefire, there’d be no talk of rooting out traitors."

Big White Shark sighed, "There’s no solution. In that situation, it was either waste a card or have someone die."

"Blame it on the True Dragon Card being drawn by Yak."

Mandala closed his eyes, "The moment Yak drew the True Dragon Card, we lost the capital to resist."

"Now, we can only hope Tai Sui will keep his promise and spare our lives."

The scene fell into silence.

Big White Shark carefully recalled Gao Xin’s words, speaking coldly, "No, I think we still need to take a gamble."

"You don’t trust him? I think he might really let us go," Mandala said.

Big White Shark decisively shook his head, "I don’t want any ’might’."

"Because ’might’ and ’I think’ are the most meaningless words in the world, putting them in front of anything makes it right."

"All I know is that seeking survival by surrendering and having all means of resistance taken away, only to be slaughtered without dignity, is the thing I can’t accept the most."

"If that’s how I die, I’d rather have died earlier in the hands of the True Dragon."

His gaze was burning with determination to take control.

Mandala frowned slightly, "I understand what you mean. If possible, of course, I want to take the initiative."

"Emotionally, I also want to take a gamble. Even if I fail and die, at least I won’t regret it."

"But rationally, we have no chance of success. Unless we can persuade one of them to help us vote against Tai Sui?"

Big White Shark thought, "Firstly, even if we fail by taking a gamble, we don’t die immediately."

"Because the only way they can stop us is to drag it out until the negotiation ends."

"And once the negotiation ends, it enters the peace phase. As for taking our cards and weapons, they will need the Angel Envoy to do that."

"So, at the moment our betrayal fails, we still have a chance to perish together."

"Just go all out, attack the Angel Envoy, and start the ultimate challenge!"

As he spoke, he looked at Mandala. Actually, when Mandala previously told him about the ultimate challenge, he had suggested starting it outright.

Because he was someone who liked to rely on his own strength to take a gamble, even if he failed, he would die without regret.

And after starting the challenge, they might not be the first ones to die. As long as they run fast enough, they can keep circling around different bases with the Dragon King.

Circling while occupying territory.

If, during this time, all the bases are occupied by the same camp, the game ends directly.

This is the only way to challenge the Angel Envoy but survive without being able to kill the Angel Envoy.

Theoretically, there is some feasibility, but Mandala disagreed because they weren’t from the same camp.

One was a Green Emperor player, the other a White Emperor player. Even if the game ends, one of them must be point-killed.

Therefore, they couldn’t choose this path and could only use a strategy of mutual destruction to intimidate Gao Xin.

However, Big White Shark brought up this method again at this moment.

Mandala pondered, "They can only resolve our betrayal by entering the next peace phase."

"And if we resist when the Angel Envoy comes to take our cards, summon the sub-dragon and attack the Angel Envoy, abandon this card, and turn around to escape, letting them face the Angel Envoy, then there is indeed a ray of hope."

"Moreover, we two could unify our camp."

"Because at the beginning of the peace phase, we can change the soul composition. If I switch to white, I become a White Emperor player."

"If they all die, and we manage to make a full loop successfully, we can occupy all the bases and end the game!"

Big White Shark nodded heavily, "Exactly, this is truly putting fate in our own hands."

"Although there’s a significant risk, it’s not impossible."

"Even if we ultimately fail, they have to die too! No loss!"

His eyes grew intense, pupils shrinking like green beans.

Mandala was also moved. He genuinely thought Gao Xin would keep his promise, but life isn’t just about survival by any means.

His and Big White Shark’s individual strength absolutely ranked in the top three in this game, next only to the Phoenix seat.

Holding one’s life in their own hands is undoubtedly the best option.

If they do nothing, the worst outcome is that they end up like dead dogs, disarmed and killed by Gao Xin.

Surrendering and begging for mercy ultimately still leads to death, a death without any dignity.

On the other hand, if they fight for it, the worst result is death as well, but there’s still a chance to take the enemy down with them.

Comparing the two, although the former has a higher survival probability, the latter is a life-or-death situation.

But the death in the latter way is one they can accept.

"Hoo..." Mandala closed his eyes. He knew he had to make the most crucial decision of his life.

Life or death, it all hinges on this moment.

"Let’s do it!"

Mandala opened his eyes: "However, provoking the enemy is a last resort choice."

"We should still try our best to win over someone else to our side."

"That final desperate move itself can serve as intimidation; maybe someone among them will defect!"

Big White Shark nodded, "Right, who wants to die?"

"Their team might not be as solid as a rock. If they don’t want mutual destruction, they might vote against Tai Sui."

"Actually, at this point, siding with us might be the most winning strategy."

"Three people voting together is invincible during the ceasefire, they can eliminate anyone pointed at!"

As they were discussing, a loud noise was heard as the Angel Envoy announced the start of the ceasefire phase.

The two exchanged glances, and Big White Shark urged, "Are we going or not?! Give a definite answer!"

Mandala crushed a crystal in his hand and took a deep breath.

Then he suddenly opened his eyes: "Let’s do it!"

They decisively charged out, breaking into the neighboring main city.

Inside, there were only three people: Gao Xin, Yak, and Li Fengqing.

Gao Xin stood up, his demon-like tall and mighty body with eighteen arms spread wide, resembling a statue.

His three heads stared intensely, emitting a roaring sound, "Did I not tell you, during negotiations, you are not allowed to come out?"

"Are you seeking death?"

The tone was cold, full of murderous intent.

Big White Shark instantly blocked the door, shouting harshly, "What’s the point of saying all this now? Tai Sui, since we’ve come out, we’re already prepared!"

"It’s more to my liking to take control rather than trust you’ll stick to your word!"

"At worst, we’ll all perish together!"

Gao Xin retorted coldly, "Do you really think you can take me down with you?"

Big White Shark replied, "Why not? The rules regarding peace agreements must be personally enforced by the Angel Envoy, and at that moment, we can directly trigger a challenge."

Saying that, he looked at Li Fengqing, "Pervert, you don’t want to die in this game, right?"

"If you don’t want mutual destruction, you should vote with us now, that’s the guaranteed win."

"First, eliminate Tai Sui, then wipe out Yak!"

"And the remaining Phoenix Seat will surely not want more trouble. They’d obediently end the game with us, even if Sivina goes mad, facing us would be seeking death."

He started with persuasion, hoping to convince Li Fengqing.

Li Fengqing’s expression immediately became conflicted, "Betray? That’s not something Li Fengqing would do, stop it."

Mandala said anxiously, "What sort of betrayal is this! Isn’t Wan Kai a wanted criminal of Tangren City?"

"Moreover, Tai Sui is the orphan of Tangren City’s Gao Long. One day, he will return to Tangren City for revenge."

"Why are you still helping him? What are you thinking? This child has limitless potential, destined to turn Crime Prison Island upside down... Only a dead Tai Sui is the best Tai Sui."

"Now, if you just vote with us, he’s guaranteed to die. Is there any better opportunity than this?"

Upon hearing this, Li Fengqing’s expression changed.

He looked towards Gao Xin, "Are you really... the son of the City Lord Gao?"

Gao Xin shook his head, speaking in a muffled voice, "I am not."

Big White Shark shouted, "Would he dare admit it now? But Wan Kai has already confessed in front of the Seahorse, and our high-level officials at Sea King Port can testify."

Without a doubt, since Wan Kai admitted to this identity, it’s practically a sure thing.

Li Fengqing closed his eyes and took a deep breath, "Regardless if you are or not, I don’t wish for Tangren City to experience another war."

"Peace as it is, is the best."

Mandala was overjoyed, "Right, his rise will undoubtedly shake too many things. Now, if he dies, it’s one less thing to worry about, maintaining the current balance is the best way!"

Li Fengqing nodded, "Okay, I’ll vote with you guys, let’s initiate the purge."

Big White Shark immediately initiated the purge, and instantly the voting interface appeared.

But in just a split second, Li Fengqing cast his vote on Big White Shark, then turned and ran.

"..." Big White Shark’s pupils shrank.

This guy just said he’d vote with them, yet as soon as the purge began, he backstabbed them.

"You damn..."

But Mandala frowned and said, "Don’t panic, it’s alright, his vote isn’t important, the key is that he’s voted and can’t delay time!"

"We both just need to vote for Tai Sui!"

They didn’t bother with Li Fengqing, hurriedly trying to vote for Tai Sui, but soon froze.

Because they couldn’t vote for Tai Sui...

The two looked up, astonished, at the terrifying statue of the Shura, suddenly realizing something, their faces turning ashen.

"Damn it! Tai Sui isn’t here!"
