Chapter 178: The Game of Placer Gold
As he spoke, Sand Gold clapped his hands and slowly emerged from the bottom of the largest display screen, appearing before everyone.
He raised his chin, a confident smile spreading across his face, looking down at Lin Qiong and the others.
"Sandgold, you went to so much trouble to get rid of the hound family members stationed here, it can't be just a simple invitation for us to come here to watch a show, right?"
Upon seeing the gold dust, Himeko immediately got straight to the point and asked him a question.
Hearing Himeko's words, Sakin sighed softly, seemingly unsurprised by Himeko's directness.
"Oh dear, I thought I had made my intentions clear enough..."
As he spoke, Sand Gold's eyes suddenly narrowed, and he turned his sharp gaze to Star without any attempt to hide it.
"Didn't I just say that this 'Star Core' lady... she's the star of the night?"
As he spoke, Sand Gold extended his right hand, making a gun-like shape with his hand, and aimed it at the star under the spotlight.
"Huh? Me?"
Standing under the spotlight, Xing pointed to herself, puzzled, a hint of confusion on her face.
"Yes, you will be the best candidate to overturn the family's empty promise that 'death does not exist in dreams.'"
"What do you mean? What does this have to do with stars?"
After hearing his explanation, Walter Yang frowned slightly and quickly pressed Sand Gold for answers.
But before Sha Jin could answer, Lin Qiong had already spoken up to explain for him.
"He's going to detonate the 'stellar core' inside the star."
These words were spoken.
Everyone present was stunned. They all turned their gazes toward the gold dust, their faces filled with disbelief.
"That's right, tonight she will be here, at the Krok Film Park, activating the 'Star Core' within her, then transforming into true 'Death,' and finally..."
"boom!"
The image of gold dust being likened to a pistol pointed at a star, with the right hand suddenly raised to simulate the recoil generated after pulling the trigger.
"Everyone will die in this explosion, and Pinocone, the star of the festival, the place where dream chasers pursue their dreams... will also be completely wiped out from the Asdna system!!"
however.
Just as Sand Gold was loudly announcing the impending end for Pinocchio.
Standing under the spotlight, Xing suddenly spoke, interrupting Sand Gold.
"But... there's more than one 'Star Core' here. If it really explodes... you probably won't be able to escape either, right?"
Xing first turned to look at Lin Qiong beside her, scratched the back of her head, and then turned her gaze to Sha Jin.
Upon hearing this, Sand Gold froze, then slowly fixed his gaze on Star.
"What do you mean? What do you mean that there isn't just one 'Star Core'?" Sand Gold asked in confusion.
He had barely finished speaking.
Lin Qiong's voice then rang out:
"Oh dear, it seems your Interstellar Peace Company isn't very good at intelligence gathering."
Seeing that Sha Jin was frowning and looking in their direction, Lin Qiong grinned and waved to him.
He continued, "The meaning of 'star' is that, besides her, there are also two 'star cores' inside me..."
"What!?"
Upon hearing this, Sand Gold trembled violently.
He quickly glanced at Xing, then turned to look at Lin Qiong, repeating the action over and over, his face filled with disbelief.
Just then.
After a long silence, Huang Quan suddenly stepped forward and looked up at the gold dust.
"Enough with the bluffing. If you truly had a way to detonate the 'Star Core,' you wouldn't be trapped here, imprisoned by 'Harmony.'"
"..."
Huang Quan's words once again left Sha Jin frozen in place.
He lowered his head in silence, the hat on his head perfectly obscuring his face, making it impossible to see his expression.
However, only a moment later.
The sound of gold dust rang in everyone's ears once again.
"Ha, wanna make a bet? I'll bet I can prove that the oath of 'harmony' is a complete joke with an unprecedented 'big bang'."
"...You can't do it."
Huang Quan responded calmly, his tone devoid of any emotional fluctuation.
"Ha...haha...hahahaha..."
Sand Gold suddenly tilted his head back and burst into laughter.
Laughter echoed throughout the air above the Kroc Film Park.
After laughing enough, Sand Gold slowly lowered his head and looked down at everyone below.
His eyes were filled with determination at that moment.
Like a gambler who has gone all in, he has exchanged everything he has for chips and placed them on the gambling table.
"Of course I can do it, it's just another gamble."
As he spoke, Sand Gold raised his right hand and pointed directly at Yellow Springs.
"Let me remind you again, I have never lost a bet so far, never. Remember that well... 'The Messenger Who Shouldn't Exist.'"
As the words fell.
A powerful current of air suddenly erupted from the gold dust.
His body was gradually enveloped in golden light and slowly rose into the air.
"I'll place the bets, I'll gamble, I'll win."
"I let fate turn its wheel, I gamble everything, and I survive every life-or-death situation."
Sand Gold's voice echoed in the sky.
Surrounded by golden light, his figure grew even taller.
"All is dedicated to—the King of Amber!"
As Sand Gold uttered his final vow, the golden light enveloping him exploded, revealing his new form to everyone.
At this moment, Sand Gold's body and limbs were covered by a layer of armor-like shell, and his face was covered by a strange and ferocious mask.
The imaginary energy on his body transformed into flowing golden ribbons of light, wrapping around him.
"Come on, let's see who has the last laugh—the game begins!"
After transforming, Sand Gold threw out two golden chips made entirely of energy, which flew straight towards the location where Lin Qiong and Xing were.
Facing the allocation of goldfields under a "preservation" order that grants them partial powers
Lin Qiong dared not underestimate his opponent. He immediately drew his Heavenly Fire Greatsword and slashed at the flying chips.
The heatwave scorched the air, making a crackling sound.
As a result, the Heavenly Fire Greatsword easily split the gold dust chip in two, as easily as a cleaver cutting to tofu.
Xing used the rock element to create several solid rock walls in front of him, reducing the impact of the chip.
Followed by.
She swung her bat, sending the energy token bouncing back to where the gold was, just like hitting a baseball.
"Whoosh-"
The high-speed flying energy tokens grazed the gold mask, sending up sparks.
"Hmph, interesting."
Sand Gold sneered and, with a wave of his hand, tossed more golden chips into the air.
This time, he unleashed a shower of golden chips, which rained down indiscriminately upon Lin Qiong and his companions below.
Its attack range almost covered the entire screening area.
"So what about this move?"
