Capítulo 1474: Bowling
Bowling was a well-known ga. It took up a considerable amount of space and was noisy, but it was a great way for those who wanted active recreation that could also be team-based and competitive.
Moreover, unlike more brutal sports, anyone can play bowling, even without any particular skill, soone could just get lucky, and at so point, the ball rolling down the lane would knock down all ten pins at once.
Sure, there were competitions and tournants in bowling. Many people earned a living from it professionally, training for years.
But, for the most part, it was still a form of entertainnt that many people played in the evening with friends.
Adam, Alexia, Silvana, and Louis were no exception to this rule. Unlike in previous gas, none of them had a significant advantage over the others, as was the case with poker.
True, Adam and Alexia could knock out a strike with every throw, but that was precisely why they lowered their power as much as possible. Right now, their auras were almost indistinguishable from those of ordinary humans.
Strangely enough, Louis and Silvana had to do the sa. Louis already knew how to limit his power, but in Silvana’s case, Adam had to explain to her exactly what to do.
It wasn’t a difficult skill, so Silvana quickly figured it out, and soon the four of them began to play.
Now, their physical abilities were no different from those of well-trained people. Sure, they were still taller than the average person, but even though they could limit their energy, they couldn’t block their reflexes, experience, and mories. That was sothing that would stay with them forever.
Tap. Tap. Tap.
Silvana twirled the ball in her hand as she was about to take the next shot, right after Adam.
She had suggested bowling herself and had a little experience, but she was still nervous.
‘How strange…’ She thought as she watched Adam knock down five pins out of ten on his first throw in the fra. ‘I’m not usually a very competitive person, but now… Damn, the main thing is not to co in last!
Step.
Silvana stepped forward, bent down, and confidently rolled her red ball forward.
Adam and Alexia watched the ball intently as it crashed into the pins on the right side. Seven pins flew to the sides as a slight smile appeared on Silvana’s face.
It was an excellent result. It wasn’t a strike when a player knocked down all ten pins in one roll, but if Silvana knocked down the remaining pins on her next throw, it would be a spare, which would earn her extra points and give her an advantage over the other players.
Sure, the best outco for any bowler was to get a strike with every roll, resulting in 300 points — the maximum possible in this ga.
But even for professionals who bowled constantly and earned their living from it, it was impossible to get a strike every ti.
If a person were bowling for the first ti in their life, they could count on one strike per ga if they were lucky.
The fact that Silvana started her ga with seven pins knocked down was already good, because Adam only knocked down five pins in his first two rolls, and Silvana had one more roll in her turn.
“Not bad.” Adam nodded deeply. “Do you think you can knock down the rest?”
At that mont, a confident gleam flashed across Silvana’s eyes, but she didn’t want to appear overconfident.
“Hah, you’re overestimating . As I said, I’ve only bowled a couple of tis in my life, so even if that happens, it just ans I got lucky!”
However, she was thinking sothing completely different from herself.
‘Shit! Of course I want to knock them down!’ Silvana exclaid internally before making her next roll.
However, no matter how hard she tried, she couldn’t knock down the remaining three pins; her ball only hit one.
“Damn it!” Silvana clenched her fist with a fiery look.
A mont later, she changed her behavior and quickly regained her calm expression, but it couldn’t be hidden from Adam’s gaze.
‘Hah, looks like she found a ga for herself. She’s definitely enjoying it. Well, that doesn’t an I’m going to lose!’
Louis was next after Silvana. He didn’t consider himself a pro at bowling, but like Silvana, he had played several tis. Not only here, but even before he beca an Operator. His family was wealthy, so as a child, he often visited places where there was bowling, billiards, roulette, and many other things just for the entertainnt of guests.
“I hope I’ll be as lucky here as I am at poker.” Louis smiled as the ball slipped from his fingertips.
Tap. Tap. Tap.
The three pins flew to the sides as he nodded deeply. He had one more try in the first fra and didn’t seem upset.
Sotis, it wasn’t so important how many pins a player knocked down with his roll, but which pins they were.
A player could knock down eight out of ten pins, but the remaining two could be standing opposite each other, at the very edges of the triangle.
This was the most difficult situation, in which it was necessary to knock down one of the two pins so that it flew to the side and knocked down the last one. Obviously, even with a high level of skill, it was impossible to guarantee such a thing.
As in any ga or endeavor, bowling requires a bit of luck. This definitely made so monts easier and could bring a rush of positive emotions.
Adam narrowed his eyes as he looked at the remaining seven pins in the center and on the right.
“Hmm, if the ball hits the center, it can knock them all down, right?” Adam thought as Louis made his next roll.
The purple ball rolled down the lane, hitting the two pins on the right, which took down two more.
This left three pins in the center, and Louis knocked down a total of seven, which wasn’t bad.
“Alright, next ti I’ll aim for the center,” Louis humd.
Step!
Alexia stepped forward confidently, holding the heaviest ball in her hands.
“Pffft! You guys don’t know how to play. Watch how it’s done! I’m going to get a strike right now!”
The others looked at each other as Alexia overdid it with her strength, and her ball simply flew out of the lane to the side.
“NO! Shit! My hand slipped! I swear!” She exclaid.
