Chapter 133 – Divine taboo, champion darts


When everyone heard the word “death,” their expressions became serious, but they were not panicked because everyone was mentally prepared.

Once the contamination of the rules occurs, it is either death or disability.

“Everyone, come and get your darts!”

The crazy maid held a plastic box in her left hand, filled with ten-centimeter-long darts, just like the ones used in dart competitions.

“This game is quite popular in foreign bars.”

The bartender received ten darts and casually weighed them in his hand.

“Are these darts all the same?”

Chen Fujiang was cautious, staring at the box in the maid’s hand. When he saw her randomly grabbing ten darts to give to people, he felt slightly relieved.

“They are the same!”

The maid smiled sweetly and handed the box over. “Do you want to choose your own?”

Chen Fujiang didn’t hesitate and picked ten darts.

Seeing this, the others also wanted to choose their own.

[All the darts are the same!]

[The person with the highest score will be rewarded. If there are multiple people with the same score, the person who reaches that score first will be rewarded!]

[If you haven’t finished shooting the darts after ten minutes, even if you have the highest score, there will be no reward!]

[After the darts hit the dartboard, your body will feel pain. The higher the score area, the more intense the pain!]

The Food God commented on this round of the game.

Lin Baici raised an eyebrow. Some of the things the Food God mentioned were hidden rules that the maid didn’t mention. He didn’t know how painful this sensation would be, and whether it would be fatal!

[The bullseye area on the dartboard is the most painful, but hitting this position will give the highest score!]

[When an area on the dartboard flashes red, don’t shoot. After hitting it, your body will be in great pain. But when it lights up with a golden light, you must hit it immediately to get double the score!]

[Each flash of light lasts for three seconds!]

Hoo!

Lin Baici took a deep breath.

“Everyone can freely choose their dartboard!”

The maid took out a flashlight-like device and turned it on.

Zi!

A beam of light appeared, spanning across the bar.

“Masters, remember that no part of your body is allowed to cross this beam of light, not even by a millimeter!”

The maid reminded them.

This beam of light was the standard line, and everyone could only stand behind it and shoot at the dartboard thirty meters away.

“Alright!”

After the maid finished all the preparations, she clapped her hands and took out a stopwatch from under her maid skirt. With a click, she pressed the start button. “Let the game begin!”

No one shot the dartboard and instead looked at Lin Baici.

Because in the first round, he performed the best, and everyone wanted to see how he would do. Moreover, in this game, no one was pursuing rewards; their priority was to stay alive.

“You’re so pitiful. You don’t even care about the Lost Coast. Why don’t you take the first shot?”

Chen Fujiang teased.

“Don’t fall for his provocation!”

Nangong Shu glanced at Chen Fujiang. “This time, I’ll go first and pave the way for you all. Consider it repaying the favor from the previous round!”

“No need!”

Lin Baici refused.

Joking aside, I already know the rules of this dart game. Should I rely on you to pave the way?

However, Lin Baici was quite satisfied with Nangong Shu’s attitude.

Lin Baici stood behind the beam of light, holding the dart with his right thumb, index finger, and middle finger. Squinting one eye, he aimed and threw it.

Everyone’s gaze was fixed on the dart.

Just as the dart was flying halfway, a marble shot from somewhere and hit the dart with a snap.

The dart deviated.

Thud!

Bullseye!

“Beautiful!”

Xia Hongyao cheered, even happier than hitting the bullseye herself.

Everyone looked at Lin Baici in surprise.

They wondered if this interfering marble was originally part of the game or if it was caused by Lin Baici’s divine blessing or divine taboo.

If it was the former, it meant that it was very difficult to score in the dart competition. If it was the latter, it would be as easy as taking something out of a bag for some divine hunters.

But this guy is really confident!

No wonder he caught the attention of Xia Hongmian and the bar owner. His performance is indeed outstanding.

“Maid, he’s cheating!”

Chen Fujiang shouted, accusing Lin Baici.

His reaction was super fast. Lin Baici hit the bullseye, and there was only one possibility: he used divine blessing. Otherwise, how could he hit the bullseye even after being interfered with?

Based on Chen Fujiang’s eyesight, if it weren’t for this interfering marble, it would be good enough for Lin Baici’s dart to hit the dartboard.

Lin Baici ignored these people and grabbed his left chest with his right hand.

When the dart hit the bullseye, it felt like his heart had been shot through by a bullet, and suddenly, he felt intense pain.

Lin Baici considered himself to have good endurance, but at this moment, his body started to tremble.

“Little Lin, what’s wrong with you?”

Xia Hongyao noticed Lin Baici’s abnormality and quickly supported him.

“Is there anything abnormal with your body?”

The bartender asked.

Everyone stared at Lin Baici, waiting for an answer.

“It hurts!” Lin Baici said and looked at Chen Fujiang. “You accuse me of cheating. Do you have any evidence?”

Lin Baici now had a deeper understanding of the “archery” of the clay figurine.

There are only two words to describe it.

Invincible!

This small clay figurine, which is about a foot long, is not only good at slingshots but also has an almost one hundred percent hit rate in any form of “long-range attack.”

It’s really beyond imagination.”It’s just a game, as long as we’re having fun, why take it so seriously?”

The maid looked at the dart in her hand and said, “Besides, unexpected things happen in games all the time, isn’t that normal? Don’t you guys throw darts?”

“No matter if it hurts or not, we don’t have a choice. Hongyao, boss, let’s start quickly!”

Upon hearing the maid’s words, Lin Baici thought to himself that things were going smoothly. However, he didn’t dare to be too arrogant, so he urged Xia Hongyao and the others to throw the darts quickly.

As long as everyone was moving, the maid wouldn’t only pay attention to him, and he could freely use the clay figurines.

Of course, Lin Baici didn’t urge everyone. If he did, they might become suspicious. Instead, he only focused on Xia Hongyao and Nangong Shu, which made everyone else feel more at ease.

Because, according to common sense, things that everyone is persuaded to do together are definitely not good things.

When Chen Fujiang saw that Lin Baici wasn’t in any unexpected pain, he shot a dart as well.

Thud!

It hit the bullseye, causing a sharp pain to immediately appear in his heart, making Chen Fujiang involuntarily bend over.

It hurts!

“Don’t wait!”

Lin Baici looked at Xia Hongyao and Nangong Shu. “Are you confident?”

Since he had already sold his favor, he naturally had to see it through. If the boss died here, he would be at a loss.

“I have no problem!”

Nangong Shu was very confident.

“I’m 80% sure I can hit the bullseye every time.”

As long as Xia Hongyao didn’t think too much and only used her hands, she was very skilled.

“Then hurry up!”

Lin Baici reminded them, “Pay attention to other people’s scores. If someone has a higher score than you, stop and wait for me to finish before I help you!”

Lin Baici saw the maid’s gaze shift to someone else, so he immediately started throwing darts.

Swish! Thud!

Swish! Thud!

Lin Baici originally wanted to finish quickly since he had the clay figurines and was very stable. However, after throwing two darts, the piercing pain made him have to stop.

It was too uncomfortable.

Lin Baici was covered in sweat.

The others weren’t doing much better.

“Damn, why does it hurt so much?”

“Damn, this pain is like being tortured, is this the level of Lingchi?”

“I would rather give birth to a child and endure the pain of childbirth than experience this!”

Everyone argued, trying to distract themselves from the pain by talking.

But Chen Fujiang and the dwarf magician were exceptions. These two were very stable and had a stronger ability to endure pain.

The dwarf magician was shooting his fifth dart.

But after Chen Fujiang shot three darts, he stopped. He looked at Lin Baici.

“As long as I’m the last one and surpass this guy with ten darts, it’s fine!”

Chen Fujiang calculated in his mind and glanced at the dwarf magician.

This guy is stupid.

Aren’t you afraid of missing any key points by shooting so quickly?

“Haha, I’m in first place!”

The dwarf magician was very happy. He often frequented various bars and playing darts was his main way of venting his frustrations.

When he shot the sixth dart, a golden light suddenly flashed in a certain area of the dartboard.

The dwarf magician paused.

What should he do now?

Shoot the bullseye?

Or shoot this golden area?

With his dart skills, he could hit it, but he didn’t know if hitting it would have good or bad consequences. This made him hesitate.

He looked at Lin Baici, but before he could ask for advice, three seconds passed and the golden light disappeared.

“Damn!”

The dwarf magician was annoyed. It felt like he had lost ten million.

“Hehe!”

Chen Fujiang sneered.

Lin Baici continued. When it was his fifth dart, a red area lit up on his dartboard. Without hesitation, Lin Baici threw the dart.

Snap!

A marble shot out and hit the dart, causing it to hit the bullseye.

“Damn!”

Lin Baici cursed and showed a regretful expression.

It seemed like not hitting this red area was a big loss.

“Is this guy acting?”

Chen Fujiang pondered.

“What does this red area represent?”

The dwarf magician asked Lin Baici with a respectful attitude.

“I don’t know!”

Lin Baici didn’t say, anyway, he had already made the clay figurines pay attention to it to ensure that Xia Hongyao and Nangong Shu wouldn’t hit this area.

Nangong Shu wanted to ask, but when she saw the look in Lin Baici’s eyes, she instantly understood.

She owed another favor.

“Boss, hitting this area might cause us to be seriously injured or even die, so I think it’s better to be more stable!”

The dwarf magician looked at Nangong Shu and suggested.

“That’s right!”

Xia Hongyao nodded. This was the most reliable method.

“You little brat!”

Nangong Shu was speechless.

The dwarf magician seemed to be talking to himself, but he was actually hinting at the others. Because if everyone played it safe, the dwarf magician would definitely score the most points if he hit the bullseye with all ten darts.

However, this guy was a bit foolish. He should have waited until everyone had thrown their darts before suddenly overtaking them, instead of opening up such a big gap now.

“Heh!”

Chen Fujiang sneered, shook his head, and thought, who would fall for your little trick?

When a red area appeared on the dartboard, Chen Fujiang didn’t even look at it and shot the bullseye directly.

Hit.

On the seventh dart, both Lin Baici and Chen Fujiang’s dartboards simultaneously flashed a layer of golden light.Lin Baici didn’t expect such a coincidence, so he stopped his hand that was about to throw the dart.

No way,

Chen Fujiang will definitely learn from me, so I have to wait for two seconds and not give him a chance to shoot.

In other words, Lin Baici shot in the last second, so Chen Fujiang didn’t have a chance to shoot for the golden area after seeing the result.

Because the golden area will disappear after three seconds.

But…

Duh!

Chen Fujiang shot first and hit the golden area.

“Kid, you still lack something if you want to trick me!”

Chen Fujiang deliberately mocked loudly, trying to disturb Lin Baici, but unfortunately, the opponent still hit the target.

Damn it!

What’s the matter with that marble? Why is it so accurate?

Lin Baici also wanted to curse!

Is this the strength of the main force members of the Lost Coast?

Difficult to deal with!

And why can he hit every time? I can’t find a reason, and I can’t disturb him.

Lin Baici shot the ninth dart.

Hit the bullseye.

There is no scoreboard, but everyone can calculate it in their hearts. The only problem is that no one knows the score after hitting the golden area and doubling it.

[He possesses the divine grace of ‘Eagle Eye’. Any target he locks onto within a range of five hundred meters can be hit with a long-range weapon!]

Food God’s comment.

This is a very powerful divine grace and one of Chen Fujiang’s trump cards in the God’s Ruins.

“Are you waiting for a golden area?”

Lin Baici asked.

“No!”

Chen Fujiang smiled, “I think after the dart hits the golden area, the score should be multiplied. Fortunately, the score of the golden area I hit is higher than yours, so as long as I hit the bullseye for the last shot, my score will definitely be higher than yours!”

“From my observation, this flickering light will appear within thirty seconds after the previous dart ends. If it exceeds this time, it won’t appear again, so…”

Chen Fujiang smiled confidently, “I’ve won!”

Chen Fujiang threw the dart, but at the moment of release, a marble flew past his eyelashes.

Fast and stealthy.

Huh!

Chen Fujiang didn’t close his eyes, but his peripheral vision glanced at the marble.

No way,

He had to make sure the marble wouldn’t hit his head. Otherwise, even if Lin Baici violated the rules, what would be the point if he died?

And this made him curse silently.

Losing the lock of the Eagle Eye, the trajectory of the dart is no longer under his control.

Sure enough,

A marble came flying.

Snap!

The dart was deflected and grazed past the dartboard.

Intense pain immediately swept through Chen Fujiang’s body.

The maid didn’t say anything, but once the dart missed the target, she would experience a tremendous piercing pain as if being pierced by countless arrows.

“Maid, he cheated and disturbed me from shooting darts!”

Chen Fujiang shouted in complaint, getting angry.

“Don’t shout so loudly, I can hear you!”

The maid frowned and looked at Lin Baici.

“Does someone who can’t accept losing deserve to be called a ‘master’ and play your game?”

Lin Baici chuckled, “By the way, Uncle, you shoot so accurately every time, I can also suspect that you’re cheating!”

Chen Fujiang’s heart skipped a beat.

Right,

He’s not clean either.

Damn it!

He was pissed off.

“Sorry, I got angry!”

Chen Fujiang felt annoyed and admitted his loss.

He knew that Lin Baici had seen through his trump card.

Otherwise, why didn’t he directly disturb the darts, but instead targeted his eyes?

Black Shark Third Generation, Octopus, and Zhuang Du, you three died unjustly!

Chen Fujiang regretted a bit.

Shouldn’t have underestimated this young man.

“Haha!”

Lin Baici laughed and clapped his hands when he saw the maid look away and observe others. He threw the last dart.

Snap!

Hit the bullseye, a perfect shot!

Clap clap!

Lin Baici looked at Chen Fujiang and applauded.

“Amazing!”

The dwarf gave a thumbs up and praised with a smile on his face.

It’s good to have a good relationship with such a genius. Otherwise, when he takes off, there won’t be a chance to approach him and talk.

Xia Hongyao patted Lin Baici’s shoulder, not knowing what he did, but it’s impressive to make the main force of the Lost Coast lose face.

Nangong Shu looked at Lin Baici and raised his evaluation of him.

After smiling at the dwarf, Lin Baici glanced at the time and urged Xia Hongyao and Nangong Shu, “Don’t dawdle, hurry up!”

Ten minutes were about to pass.

With Lin Baici’s help, Xia Hongyao and Nangong Shu all hit the bullseye with all ten darts, so they definitely won’t be the bottom three.

The others also sped up, but there were still seven people who hadn’t finished shooting.

Because they lacked confidence, the divine grace they possessed didn’t help with shooting darts.

It can only be said that their luck was too bad.

Beep beep! Beep beep!

The stopwatch in the maid’s hand rang, and she immediately pinched it, “Game time is over, let’s start scoring!”

“First place!”

The maid looked at Lin Baici, “Master, what’s your name?”

“Lin Baici!”

Lin Baici showed a sunny smile, “Thank you for the game, I had a great time!”

Everyone actually guessed who would be the first, and it turned out to be this boy. Now they see that it’s true.

Some people sighed silently.

Genius is genius, incomparable!”Your reward is…”

The maid drew out her words, reaching under her skirt with her right hand and pulling out a golden wooden box: “A champion dart!”

“What a beautiful box!”

Xia Hongyao exclaimed.

The box was adorned with beautiful patterns inlaid in gold foil.

Snap!

The maid opened the box.

Inside was a red velvet lining, on which lay a ten-centimeter-long golden dart. The patterns on the dart seemed like some kind of mysterious spell.

“The champion dart, as long as you hold it, you will always be the most advantageous contender for the championship. Once this dart is thrown, it will hit the target within three hundred meters!”

“But there’s a small drawback, that is, when you hold it, no matter what you do, you want to win!”

“Even if you’re just peeing, you have to pee farther than anyone else in the bathroom at the same time. If you can’t do it, you’ll be depressed for several days!”

Snap!

After introducing the properties of the champion dart, the maid closed the lid and handed it to Lin Baici.

Everyone watched as Lin Baici took the box, their eyes filled with envy.

This was definitely a Divine Taboo with an extremely powerful attack. It could be said that within three hundred meters, Lin Baici’s lethality was off the charts, because his attack was unavoidable and could only be resisted.

As for the side effect of wanting to win, it was a minor issue, not worth worrying about.

Chen Fujian’s face was solemn.

He was very worried that Lin Baici would suddenly attack him!

“Alright, next, we’ll announce the bottom three!”

The maid peeled a piece of bubble gum and popped it into her mouth: “Let’s see, who are the three unlucky ones?”
