A one in four chance...
The Goblin Boss faced the same choice again, but this time, his odds were even lower!
With every jar he tore open, his chances of winning decreased!
1 second, 2 seconds...
The same scenario played out. On the third second, the Goblin Boss couldn't hold back any longer and violently tore open the jar.
It was another Head Jar...
Now, only three jars remained.
The Goblin Boss stared silently at Su Baiye.
The Elf Assistant was puzzled and quietly asked, "Coach... what if he tears open all the jars?"
Su Baiye replied irritably, "Can't you just buy a private chat channel?"
Even at this stage of the game, Su Baiye still had the mood to joke around.
Mentioning 'buying something' perked up the Elf Assistant, "Opening a private chat channel now only costs 88 Points! Coach, top up some Points! It's really the original price!"
Su Baiye brushed it off, "Once we win this Challenge Task, I'll get it for you when we get back."
Su Baiye casually promised, and the Elf Assistant immediately changed into a cheerleader outfit, jumping around energetically.
However, the Elf Assistant's concern was valid.
If the Goblin Boss had enough Points, he could destroy all the jars.
Su Baiye pondered, "In that case, there are only a few possibilities..."
Su Baiye calculated, "Either the game restarts, and we redo everything we've done before, but that would waste all his Points, so regardless of whether this scenario occurs, he won't let the game restart."
"Or, I win, completing the Challenge Task, which he wouldn't want to accept either."
The Goblin Boss stubbornly asked, "Why can't I win?"
Su Baiye's answer was simple, "If destroying all the jars could make you win, you would have done it from the start."
Nine jars, 2700 Points, could be exchanged for a victory in the Challenge Task. Why would the Goblin Boss hesitate?
Other goblins might hesitate, but the Goblin Boss had already spent so many Points, clearly not a goblin who cared about Points. In the face of victory, there was no reason to hesitate.
The Goblin Boss fell silent.
Su Baiye repeated the process, like following a routine, placing the Head Jar on his head, and then the Goblin Boss tore it off.
Only two jars remained!
One Head, one Safe!
The next jar would reveal the outcome.
The previous talk of strategy was just a smokescreen to confuse the opponent.
Su Baiye reached this point not through psychological games but by using the 'Ten Thousand Deaths Method' to predict the opponent's next move.
Even Su Baiye himself was puzzled as to why the Goblin Boss kept choosing to destroy the jars.
When something unusual happens, there must be something strange behind it.
Where was the problem...
The Goblin Boss's actions were abnormal, continuously destroying jars was wrong, and he even deliberately gave Su Baiye spoilers before... everything seemed bizarre, yet Su Baiye couldn't find the clue.
In his contemplation, Su Baiye thought of a possibility and suddenly spoke, "Little Mi, did you know? The Lost Train has a cleanliness obsession."
The Elf Assistant blinked, confused. Was the Coach giving me a secret signal?
[You informed the Elf Assistant of a piece of ordinary quality information, Points +1]
[You informed the Goblin Boss of a piece of ordinary quality information, Points +1]
As expected!
Seeing the prompt, Su Baiye's doubts were resolved, his thoughts cleared, and he no longer distracted himself with the Goblin Boss's abnormal actions, focusing on the game. Find the original chapter at novelping(.)com.
Su Baiye looked at the last two jars, facing the final decision.
What if he chose the Head Jar?
Su Baiye's soul left his body, switching perspectives.
This time, the Goblin Boss didn't act but watched as Su Baiye was killed by the Head Jar.
So... the Goblin Boss actually identified this jar as a Head Jar and was waiting for Su Baiye to fall for it?
Although it could barely be explained, something still felt off.
Su Baiye's soul returned to his body, and he already knew how to choose.
To be precise, Su Baiye had no choice but to take a gamble!
The Safe Jar!
Wearing the Safe Jar, Su Baiye counted silently in his heart.
1 second...
2 seconds...
3 seconds!
The Goblin Boss made no move!
Su Baiye won the gamble!
Su Baiye removed the jar and, without a word, smashed it on the ground.
With a bang, the jar shattered!
It was the last Safe Jar!
Su Baiye shattered not only the Safe Jar but also the Goblin Boss's hope of winning!
"You!"
In despair and anger, the Goblin Boss couldn't utter a complete sentence, pointing at Su Baiye, his body trembling.
The Elf Assistant shielded Su Baiye, cheering him on, "Coach, don't be afraid, he won't dare!"
Su Baiye: ...I know very well whether he dares or not, and I know even better whether you're scared...
Su Baiye stared directly at the Goblin Boss, not backing down an inch, "It's your turn to choose."
These five words calmly pronounced the opponent's death sentence.
The Goblin Boss was angry, desperate, struggling, helpless...
Perhaps accepting his defeat, the Goblin Boss didn't delay, slowly walking towards the last Head Jar.
For goblins, time is money, wasting time is a crime, dying earlier in this game means reviving earlier, getting back to work earlier, and earning Points.
Before lifting the jar, the Goblin Boss looked at Su Baiye, all emotions calmed, and sneered, "Do you think you can keep winning?"
Without waiting for Su Baiye's response, he continued, "You've forged your own doom, I'll watch you walk towards your end (Goblin language)."
Su Baiye scratched his head, "What are you babbling about?"
The Elf Assistant pondered, "Coach, he's cursing you."
"You understand foreign languages?"
Even if you don't understand a foreign language, you can guess the gist.
"Coach, you need to learn foreign languages!"
The Elf Assistant knew the importance of learning foreign languages and immediately promoted, "Coach! Spend 588 Points now to unlock the Elf Assistant's full language proficiency..."
Su Baiye: "Unsubscribe!"
The Goblin Boss lifted the jar, and three seconds later, without suspense, the mechanism triggered, thin wires pierced into his flesh, causing him to howl continuously. You are reading on novelping.com, the official source.
Seeing this, the Elf Assistant was shocked, "Not dead?!"
If the Goblin Boss doesn't die, the Coach is doomed!
Su Baiye seemed to have anticipated this, stepping forward with a blackjack, pointing out the key point, "Two Head Jars are needed to kill him. When the first Head Jar took effect, he directly tore the jar apart."
In other words, the damage wasn't fully dealt, and the Goblin Boss was now in a critically injured state!
If the Goblin Boss survives... then Su Baiye is in trouble!
This one must not be left alive!
The Elf Assistant got excited, "Coach, hit him hard!"
Su Baiye struck twice more but then stopped, clearly realizing, "Blackjacks can't kill."
The Elf Assistant was puzzled, if blackjacks can't kill, then use fists?
Truly the Chief Instructor of the Eight Hundred Thousand Imperial Guards?
My apologies...
Su Baiye put down the blackjack, lifted the goblin's body from behind, and while moving, said, "I have a habit when playing games, following the game's design logic, all items should be useful..."
Following the logic of cause and effect, it's the best use of the 'Ten Thousand Deaths Method' for Su Baiye.
Su Baiye started speaking words the Elf Assistant couldn't understand.
However, the Elf Assistant understood what Su Baiye was doing!
Su Baiye dragged the Goblin Boss's body around the stall, arriving at the saw table, and opened the cover...
The Elf Assistant's eyes lit up, "It's a chainsaw! Use the chainsaw!"
The Elf Assistant understood! Understood it all!
A chainsaw capable of killing 'stone monsters' should also be able to kill the Goblin Boss!
Su Baiye delivered another blackjack, then lifted the Goblin Boss's body. Once the opponent regained consciousness and struggled, Su Baiye would deliver another blackjack.
One strike after another, dispersing the goblin's soul.
Su Baiye laboriously lifted the Goblin Boss, placing him on the saw table.
This time, aiming wasn't really necessary, as the neck fit perfectly under the saw blade.
Su Baiye pressed the start switch, the saw blade descended, emitting a piercing grinding sound, blood spurted out, splattering on Su Baiye's shirt.
Su Baiye was a bit curious and only noticed then, "Huh, goblin blood is red?"
That doesn't make sense!
The Elf Assistant quickly explained, "Goblin blood was originally green, but they thought green blood was too gory, so they changed it to red."
Su Baiye: ...Impressive.
Crunch—
The saw blade reached the bottom, the Goblin Boss's head separated from his body, the headless corpse fell to the ground, leaving only the head in the jar.
The saw table emitted a wisp of white smoke, completely breaking down from overuse.
Initially, there were a few curses coming from the Head Jar, but they quickly quieted down, returning to silence.
Su Baiye set down the Head Jar, looking at the chaos on the ground, feeling a sense of having lived through an era.
This game had finally come to an end...
Now, there was only one thing certain:
Su Baiye survived!
