Chapter 33 - The Smell of Lies 5

A real scam

So let's go straight to the last part

[THIS GAME WILL CONCLUDE HERE AND NOW, THE FINAL ROUND WHICH WILL DECIDE THE LOSER]

[THE DICE IS ACTIVATED.]

The burning desert wind swept the red dust from the plain.

The gaming circle had materialized in the heart of Nevada, amidst wrecked vehicles, an electric sky, and drones hovering in the air like mechanical vultures.

ten players.

Two teams.

But only one would survive.

The cameras circled around them, invisible, as the doll's voice echoed over the plain:

[LET THE REAL GAME BEGIN.]

Djesone comes forward.

- This game is cinema, real shit.

Beside him, A-9 was watching the die.

- Don't speak too soon. We still have a chance to win more than the second group.

- We must unite, A-03 whispered.

The group moved closer.

On the screens in the room, buyers watched the scene.

The woman still gritted her teeth.

- It really annoys me, all my efforts to become buyers and get out of this hell, I'm going to destroy this little piece of trash with my own hands, ahaaaaaaaa.

"That's the game," the young buyer reminded him with a glass of wine. "Do whatever's in the best interest of the game."

He smiled, satisfied.

- in the interest of the game, obviously, the woman breathed.

On the ground

A-04 got up first.

They all return to their places

- Damn, we can start whenever you want.

- So I'll start, breathed Djesone

- May fate be with me.

He threw his watch at her center.

-On the 3rd, I give everything, including myself.

A flash of light blinded everyone.

When the vision returned, the player was no longer there.

Just a black hole, dug into the ground.

The system spoke:

[OFFER ACCEPTED. ADJUSTMENT IN PROGRESS.]

The others didn't seem shocked.

 [ MODIFICATION ]

I finally understood.

- play everything including 6, I see

- What do you see there? ... A-9 whispered. A smirk.

In the observation room, the young buyer burst out laughing.

- Look at them! Smarter and smarter!

The woman glared at him.

- This is not a game.

The young man tilted his head.

- A game? We just found the solution.

His voice slipped, icy.

- This game rewards the intelligent and the manipulative, not reason or principles, these are the players we need to finally become real buyers.

She looked at the screen.

Her face slowly widened, as if she understood.

-and me who wanted to destroy everything, ridiculous

[THE FIGURE IS REACHED]

A-04 , advances slowly.

The crazy look.

- Then roll the dice

I throw it.

But the die, falling to the ground, rolled

Roll, roll and roll one last time.

The 1.

The sky darkens.

A-09 remained, smiling, at the foot of the table.

She looked up.

A voice whispered into his watch:

 [ TRANSFER DES GAING ]

He's staring at me.

Then smiled.

My watch vibrated, the numbers decreased.

A hot current ran through his body.

And the watch emptied.

And in the room, all the buyers saw this moment:

[CONGRATULATIONS: AMERICA WON THE GAME.]

Observation room

The screens lit up.

The doll smiled slowly.

- That's a good example. America has just produced its monster.

The bearded man, livid, asked:

- What does that mean?

- That means, replied the doll, that your acting was not bad.

She pauses.

- Now you can at least close one eye while sleeping

A stunned silence followed.

- It will be very interesting to see them face other nations

The woman stood up, confused.

- we won?!

- Maybe, the doll answered calmly.

She took a step in their direction.

- we are not buyers now we have players

A new message appeared on the screens:

[ SYSTEMS MERGER VALIDATED. ]

[ WORLD GAME INITIALIZING. ]

The young buyer with the wine glass, still smiling, raised his glass.

- Gorgeous… 

The doll slowly turned its head towards him.

- So, see you soon, I hope you survive

Ki-Moon felt a slight irritation rise within him.

Once again his meter was empty

[LINK ESTABLISHED.]

He frowned.

-........ So I have to get my funds back

*[lose so easily, I told you not to disappoint me]

*[SO easily defeated.]

I didn't really lose, who would have thought he would call a truce to get me at my own game.

Gather all their funds and invest it with a sacrifice depriving me of using a trick, if there are some who can think of that among them then I prefer that it is mine.

The die in his hand reminds me of him. Somewhere, thousands of miles away,

I still have millions

Under the control of certain people

And the voice of the system resounded, everywhere at once:

[THUS ENDS THIS GAME, SAD FOR SOME BUT BENEFICIAL FOR OTHERS]

[SO PREPARE TO BE BOUGHT.]

[BUT THE ROAD TO FRANCE ENDS HERE]

-Wait a minute, I want to know something, I shouted

All the players were staring at me, especially the French ones.

-Can we buy a player?

[NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE, AS LONG AS YOU HAVE ACCESS TO MEANS, BUT IS THIS YOUR CASE?]

-I can afford it….

-What are you talking about, asked A-09, glaring at me, let's get down to business, eliminate them and get back to the real game

[LET'S GO TO THE BUY]

All the watches started to vibrate except for the French ones.

-so it's really over, breathed viper

[CHOOSE FROM THE PROPOSALS AND YOU WILL BE IMMEDIATELY ENTERED INTO THE MAIN GAME]

on each screen the same message but not the same offers, for the most competent more than 3 purchase proposals with colossal sums or just banal for the means.

Only one man among them, despite his reputation, had received more than 20 requests, almost like a supplication for the possessed.

And this man was none other than…..
