Now reading: Chapter 71 - 34: Hitting Rock Bottom with Ree Shil2 from Sorry, But I Never Rely On Luck When Playing Cards, a Game novel by Fried Egg With Orange.

He muttered to himself.

Whoosh!

[Beep beep beep beep beep beep♪~ beep beep beep beep beep♫~]

Just as he finished speaking, he saw a shadow accompanied by that tune whizzing past in front of the black smoke.

In a blur, he saw the truck’s front that was almost smashed to pieces by the mammoth man.

And the mammoth man stuck on the front of the truck.

Boom!!!

The truck’s front, squeezing the mammoth man, slamd into the wall at the end of the corridor and caused an explosion.

[Dingdong!]

[Mammoth, OUT!]

[Mammoth, OUT!]

Black Smoke heard the sound of a player being eliminated in a daze.

"That’s not right! Why is only one person eliminated?"

"The driver must not have survived!"

Just now he had seen for a mont that there was a human in the driver’s seat.

A dense blue light like smoke dispersed, and apart from the huge cracks on the wall, the surroundings had beco clean.

It was then that he saw the miraculous scene.

Buzz!

A blue light beam descended, and a figure suddenly appeared.

It was none other than the water truck driver he had just seen!

(This person... can resurrect?!)

At this mont, Black Smoke was shocked.

No wonder it’s called the Grim Reaper water truck!

The other party didn’t seem to have noticed himself at this point, so he heard the other’s murmurs.

"Damn it, I wasted another sum of money."

"But it’s good too, saving the trouble of reversing."

As he spoke, he saw the person conjure a brand new water truck out of thin air and sat back inside.

[Beep beep beep beep beep beep♪~ beep beep beep beep beep♫~]

Accompanied by the endlessly looping music, the truck soon drove away.

Indeed, the devilish lody was quite brainwashing.

"Do I... still want to break out?"

He suddenly felt that the world outside was so dangerous!

...

On the last night of the instance, there were still two hours left before the instance ti ended.

It was still District 11, at the end of the corridor.

The huge double doors leading to District 10 were tightly closed, and there was still a team of guards guarding them.

[Today, those prisoners... are so quiet]

The cat-head captain held a riot baton, looking bored.

You should know that they were exhausted the day before yesterday, running everywhere to support their fellow teams.

If a prisoner suddenly appeared in front of them, they might have to fight.

[Yeah, ever since that chanical beast joined us, the situation has beco much better]

The gnoll deputy captain echoed.

Compared to the day before yesterday, the ancient palace today was terrifyingly calm.

[I really don’t know what grievances that guy has with the other prisoners]

[Making us idle, like we’re slacking off]

[Even a little embarrassed]

The cat-headed captain laughed.

[And I heard that all the remaining prisoners have stopped trying to escape]

[They are so scared, hiding in their cells and not daring to co out]

[I didn’t expect the safest place to be the prison they have been trying to escape from]

[It’s so ironic... Huh?]

Just as he was talking, his ears suddenly twitched.

Squeaky...

The big door behind them was pushed open a crack.

[It’s a prisoner! Prepare for battle!]

The gnoll with a keen sense of sll, had already slled the scent that didn’t belong to his kind.

Hearing him say this, everyone raised their weapons.

Gurgle gurgle...

Out of nowhere, the stone-built ground suddenly rippled with water-like patterns, and within these patterns, a person’s back swam out from the door gap.

The guards beca even more cautious at this eerie entrance.

"Phew!"

The next second, the person crawled out from the ground as if getting ashore from the water.

There were bioluminescent pouches on both sides of his cheeks, and it was unclear what race he was.

At this mont, his face was full of exhaustion and tension as he glanced around him.

However, surprisingly, when he saw the guards, it was as if he had seen his saviors.

"Quick! Catch quick!"

His spirit suddenly beca excited, as if he was experiencing a dying flash.

[Huh?]

Such a request was unprecedented for the guards.

A prisoner actually volunteered to be captured?

Then why the hell did you escape in the first place!

But in reality, the bald man had a hard ti explaining his situation.

All of this started with his encounter with Number7.

All in all, he was chased during the night by soone, no, to be more precise, by a mysterious water sprinkler truck from who knows where.

It was apparent that his superpower possessed a formidable stealth and escape capability, but every ti he shook off his pursuers, he was discovered again shortly after.

Only a short while ago did it seem like the tracking ability of his pursuers disappeared and he was completely free.

Bald man had enough of this chase, and just wanted to spend his final two hours in peace.

After all, he had already cast enough spells to be the first place in this ga.

"Co on, co catch ."

"Entering the prison cell is safe."

Seeing the guards had failed to react, he actively reached out his hands.

[...]

The cat-faced captain exchanged a look with his team mbers and then took a chain.

Pressing the end of the chain, a green energy erged on it.

This green energy was quite mysterious and was able to suppress superpowers.

"Yes, yes, yes! That’s it!"

Seeing the chains, the bald man was not afraid but was instead delighted. He took a few steps forward and signaled for the other party to bind him.

The cat-faced captain never expected this sort of twisted behavior from the bald man.

He then awkwardly used the chain to try and bind him.

"Alright, alright, alright, alright!"

The restraints of the green energy chained him up, causing the bald man to shiver on the ground, but he did not forget to say, "Hurry! Hurry! Send to the cell!"

However, the cat-faced man didn’t pay him any heed, instead he whispered instructions to a team mber.

The dog-headed team mber who received the instructions imdiately left at a brisk pace.

Then, not long after that, the bald man witnessed a scene that made him collapse.

[Buzz! Buzz! ♪ ~ Buzz! Buzz!♫ ~]

That dreaded sound was echoing in the distance again!

It was in that instant he fully understood what was going on.

I’m screwed!

There are players who are actually colluding with enemy NPCs!

Can a human even do such a thing?!

A few minutes later, an announcent sounded.

[Ding!]

[Butt-Face, OUT!]

[Butt-Face, OUT!]

"Ah... I failed."

Sitting on the truck, Ree Shil felt a wave of lancholy.

His plan to directly secure the championship had failed.

It wasn’t that he hadn’t worked hard; it was just that the enemy was too cunning.

Checking the ranking panel, he clearly saw that he was in last place.

Many players had realized sothing was off, and had chosen to hide in their cells like scared turtles.

He had worked so hard driving the truck and defeating people, yet these guys were just enjoying the easy life, the taste was truly bitter.

Especially since he had encountered two strong opponents who could actually fight against his truck, it forced him to adopt a suicidal strategy and use up his three resurrection chances.

Of course, he wouldn’t admit that one of those tis was his own fault when he failed to drift on a stone bridge and wasted a chance.

In the end, he only managed to crawl to 12th place, damn it!

Yes, despite being in last place, he was 12th.

And with this rank, it was basically impossible for him to advance further because he hadn’t collected or released spells for the past three days except for the beginning. Instead, he had focused solely on eliminating other players.

The remaining contestants were all hiding in the prison cells, and there were no other people left to eliminate.

This included the competitor he most wanted to defeat, Black Smoke.

What he didn’t know was that if everyone had competed solely based on spell count, there was a high probability that Black Smoke would have been eliminated.

Instead, his plan of defeating others actually helped his opponent advance.

Moreover, the opponent was the one who had witnessed Ree Shil’s accident, which is why he hid.

However, if they had only competed based on their spell counts, Ree Shil might not have been able to safely enter the top 32 either.

Now, these two were probably destined to face a showdown at the card table later.

The final two hours passed quickly.

Hum!

As the column of light teleported him, Ree Shil returned to the pure white space.

[Completed the three-day survival mission in the Instance Dungeon - 1/1]

[Congratulations on entering the top 32 contestants - 1/1]

[Dungeon Completion Rate-100%]

[Gaining experience points, calculating...]

[Congratulations, level increased to LV3]

A panel promptly popped up.

As expected of a dungeon with a max level of LV10, the experience points directly leveled him up, Straw Man and the others really missed out.

But what surprised him the most was the sentence below.

[Please draw 6 cards as the Instance Dungeon Reward]

He didn’t expect that this instance dungeon would also have card draws!
