Chapter 340: Chapter 336: Are There Really Unregulated Night Clubs?
Translator: 549690339
As the gunshots in the house became more sparse, the battle was drawing to a close.
Super Tomato outside blinked, opened the panel, and checked again.
There was still no change on the panel.
He looked around the surrounding environment again.
No one popped out, and nothing happened â not even a single onlooker.
Finally, he accepted it: âWell, thereâs no task, no hint, and no indication of what to do next.â
Super Tomato summarized.
However, after summarizing, he wasnât confused but decisively threw away the gun in his hand.
âIâll give it a try and see if I can turn enemies into friends.â
He said and walked towards the house where the gunfire had subsided.
âIs this how people would think?â
âYouâre really something, Super Tomato! You can always come up with something fun!â
Unfortunately, the audienceâs exclamations in the comments couldnât change the game rules designed by Lincoln.
Rather than allowing John Wick to be exposed or allowing the players to disarm easily, heâd prefer to play it tough and not change things easily.
No matter the purpose, if you dare to go in, you will die!
âHello there!â Super Tomato raised his hands and approached the house.
But just as he finished greeting and before he could say the second sentence, âBang!â
Super Tomato fell to the ground as expected, joining Yi and most of the closed beta players in their fate.
The reason itâs just the majority is that some players did actually leave here alive.
Like Super Tomato, those who realized that this wasnât a guided mission, some slipped away without a fight when they noticed things were going south.
Thatâs what Camille Victoria did.
She didnât know the whole story or reason but was told to follow a group of sinister-looking, black-clothed people to attack someone elseâs house?
âNo offense, but Iâm one of the good guys, a partner of justice! I canât do this kind of thing!â
âThe reason I didnât shoot you guys with a Black Gun is that I didnât know what exactly happened here. Otherwise, I wouldâve made you taste what itâs like to be attacked from both front and rear!â
After saying that, Camille Victoria left, stopped a taxi, and said, âDriver, to the biggest casino in Night City! Hurry up! Iâm in a rush!â
Camille Victoria didnât shoot anyoneâs Black Gun, but after all, players could come up with the same ideas and actions.
Unfortunately, with a Level 1 skill on the initial panel, their combat power was really not enough to pose a threat.
Even sneak attacks from behind could at most take down two before being counterattacked and killed, leading to respawning.
Fortunately, the respawn point was set by Lincoln where two bustling main roads intersect, right in front of the Continental Hotel in Night City.
This spared the players from having to travel from the outskirts to the bustling commercial area.
If any player wanted to level up, they could go in and get a task.
Of course, the difficulty of the tasks here is not low. Relying on Level 1 firearms specialization, completing tasks is not easy.
But in the absence of tasks, while some players feel free, many players are a bit lost.
At this point, when they see familiar things, they would instinctively go in and take tasks according to the daily routine of âAssassinsâ Alliance.â
The most popular tasks, of course, are those that target the gangs that bring bad luck.
â Fred added a bunch of big and small gangs for the players to have fun.
As for the difficulty of the tasks?
What does it matter if you die a few times? Die enough, and youâll get used to it.
And if that doesnât work, canât they just team up with others?
At this point, most of the closed beta players finally returned to their familiar rhythm, starting to get to know this strange city bit by bit through tasks.
Of course, there are still many players who donât go the usual route.
After being resurrected, Super Tomato just glanced at the Continental Hotel, pulled out his wallet, and turned to hail a taxi.
âDriver, to the biggest casino in Night City! Hurry up, Iâm in a rush!â
Having respawned earlier than Super Tomato, Yi had already gotten into a taxi and was on his way to his destination.
But he wasnât going to a casino. He said to the driver:
âDriver, to the most unregulated nightclub in Night City! Hurry up, Iâm in a rush!â
The driver hesitated but didnât ask any further, just pressed the accelerator, and started driving without any further questions.
The driverâs reaction confused Yi: Is there really an unregulated nightclub?
Isnât this a 17+ game?
He instinctively put his hand on his waistband, ready to try to pull it down.
But then he suddenly realized he was still streaming live!
âEveryone, wait a sec. I need to confirm something.â
Yi said and temporarily blocked the live streamâs screen. He quickly began to undo his belt to verify whether it was possible to take off his pants in the game.
The fans in the live broadcast room who were staring at the black screen, hearing the rustling sound in the headphones, and the action Yi took before the screen went black all knew what their anchor was up to! đ»đâŻđŠđžđđđđđżđŠđ.đđđ¶
âWhy be shy with your bros?!â
âYou keep doing this, and Iâm gonna get mad! Weâre all family, so why be so secretive?â
âListen to me! Show us!â
âI bet itâs too small, and heâs embarrassed.â
Yi didnât have time to pay attention to the comments in the live broadcast room. He slightly raised his buttocks and yanked his pants down!
Revealing his blue underwear.
âIs that really possible?â Yi looked shocked and confused.
Keep in mind that in âAssassinsâ Alliance,â the only thing that can be taken off is the coat, and the rest can only be changed with one click.
Want to manually take off your pants and reveal your underwear?
No such thing!
Unbelievable! The gameâs rating only increased from[16+] to [17+], but thereâs such a big change!
Looking at his own underwear, Yi figured he might as well go all the way and tried to take them off too.
âHey! Hey! Hey! What are you doing?!â The taxi driver saw Yiâs actions through the rearview mirror and stopped him in shock.
âYou said you wanted to go to an unsavory nightclub, and youâre in a hurry. I can understand that. But you donât need to strip naked in the car, do you?! Are you really that desperate?â
âUhâŠâ Yi abruptly froze with his hand aimed at his underwear.
His excitement had made him forget about the presence of the NPC.
Even though he knew it was fake and just data, faced with a vivid, unkempt middle-aged man, he couldnât bring himself to take off his underwear on the spotâŠ
Seeing that Yi didnât respond, the taxi driver quickly added, âIf you dirty the car, youâll have to pay extra!â
âHuh???â Yiâs mouth dropped open. What did he mean by dirtying the car??
Do the taxi drivers in Night City all have such heavy tastes?
What kind of passengers do they usually pick up?
Yi hurriedly pulled up his pants, fastened his belt, and sat back down properly.
There was no need to explain. What was there to explain to an NPC? Once he got out of the car, who would remember who anyway?
Not to mention, this was a closed beta. In two days, all the data would be wiped clean, and everything would disappear.
He then restored the live streaming screen.
But before he could tell everyone the big news about the âPants-Off Party,â he saw the live streaming comments had gone off track:
âShocking! A famous anchor is stripping naked on a taxi, baring it all for everyone!â
âDesire erupts during live streaming, actually making indecent advances towards a middle-aged male driver, turning off the broadcast to reward himself!â
âYi X Night Shift Taxi Driver: An untold story!â
ââStripping Nakedâ, âDirtying the Taxiââ
Yi stared at the tone of the live stream with a stiff expression, and couldnât help but slap his forehead.
He felt that his dark history had thickened by a few more pages.
Still, thinking about his discovery, he couldnât suppress the excitement and was eager to try the final step! He had to find an opportunity to test it!
And then, considering that the taxi driver really knew the location of the âunlawfulâ nightclubs in Night City and said stripping clothes in the car was âin a hurry.â
Wouldnât that imply that â once he entered an unsavory nightclub, stripping naked there wouldnât be seen as hurried anymore?
This was a big deal!
Cloud Dream! Lincoln! Well done!!
However, even though Yi was always involved in daring escapades, there was a clear line between âhaving funâ and âactually doingâ them.
Once he crossed that line, he might lose everything in an instant and bid farewell to his professional career.
So when he realized that Cloud Dream might have really made such a huge change, he didnât excitedly share it with his fans in the live stream room.
But everyone was quick-witted enough; after teasing him about the black screen, they soon figured it out.
âTaking off clothes,â âUnsavory nightclubââŠ
After understanding the situation, their imaginations ran wild!
Meanwhile, Super Tomato also arrived at his destination â [Paradise Hotel].
Although it was called a hotel, according to the driverâs introduction, it housed the largest, most luxurious, and most populated casino in Night City.
People who became wealthy overnight or lost their entire fortune in a single night appeared every week.
According to the driver, someone once turned a single rewarded chip into a billion-dollar fortune overnight.
But there were also those who gambled for ten days straight, losing their entire wealth of over 2 billion.
In the end, they climbed the building opposite the casino and jumped off.
Super Tomato asked, âWhy did they go to the building across from the casino to jump? Why not jump directly in the casino?â
âHehe.â The driver answered with a mocking smile: âThe rooftop of the casino is off-limits to the gamblers. Itâs been locked for ten years and is always guarded to prevent people like them.â
âI see, they left the casino, climbed more than ten floors, and still couldnât calm down. They must have been truly desperate, right? How pitiful.â
âNo.â The driver shook his head: âGamblers donât deserve pity! At most, their families are a little pitiful.â
Among the barrage of ââAwakeningââ comments, Super Tomato paid the fare and entered [Paradise Hotel].
More precisely, he entered [Paradise Casino]!
Gamble and win a fortune to enjoy a heavenly life.
Or lose everything and simply take a one-way ticket to heaven!
âWhether you win or lose, you can experience the beauty of heaven. What a clever name!â
Entering the casino, Super Tomato exchanged all the money in his wallet for chips â an embarrassingly small amount, less than 10 chips.
Super Tomato officially embarked on his âGambling Kingâ journey.
However, as soon as he walked into the lobby, he caught sight of a familiar figure!
Camille Victoria was standing confidently at a gambling table, relying on the [Advanced Extreme Handheld Sports] skill that came with her first-generation console limited commemorative badge. A few chips were flipping up and down in her hands, dazzling the surrounding gamblers.
â This was the first and only skill that could be used across multiple games. Some people had even used this skill to perform one-handed chair spins in the world of âLight Encounter.â
Camille Victoriaâs composure and style were truly impressive!
âWhatâs going on?â Super Tomato was taken aback.
âI donât remember forming a team, did I?â
