The world has turned into Hell's Game, why should I stay human?!

The fifth community card was dealt.

The King of Spades.

"Handsome, do you want to raise the bet?"

The Succubus Croupier asked.

"I'm out of chips."

He shook his head.

"What a pity, then this game will be the end."

The Demon said with a smile.

It opened the Flame Gate again, ready to put the Legendary Takeout Box inside.

"No, I want to raise."

Liu Zheng suddenly said.

"You said you have no chips left, didn't you?"

"I still have 'flesh,' and this vest."

His eyes were blood red.

"Alright, if you insist."

The Demon shrugged and closed the Flame Gate.

"Your chips are not enough."

Liu Zheng gritted his teeth.

"Then add."

The Demon generously pushed out a stack of chips and placed the takeout box on the gambling table.

"Reveal your cards."

It seemingly said calmly.

The tentacle curled up the bottom card, ready to throw it onto the gambling table.

"Bang!"

Everyone looked over.

The casino's door was kicked open with one foot.

The Pig-headed Man stepped calmly over the cowboy, ignoring the revolver he aimed at his own back.

"Oynk."

"Heavenly Butcher."

The gamblers whispered his name among themselves.

"Oynk, this isn't your turf."

The Demon frowned.

"Is there a rule saying I can't come here to gamble?"

Oynk retorted.

The Demon was rendered speechless.

"Wake up, you two idiots."

Oynk walked over to Niu Ma and Liu Zheng and slapped each of them crisply on the face.

The force was so great that they spit out bloody teeth.

"Damn it, who hit me?"

Niu Ma was furious at first, but as soon as he saw Oynk, he immediately switched to a sycophantic smile.

"Oynk, how did you get here?"

"If I hadn't come, you two would already be on someone else's slaughter table," Oynk said bluntly.

Liu Zheng also came to his senses.

He immediately realized that Niu Ma's warning had not been effective and that even it had been influenced by the Demon, just like him.

"It's no use, Oynk. He's already at the gambling table, and even you can't take him away."

The Demon said.

As the words fell, black flames began to rise from the floor and walls of the casino.

Especially the door, where the darkness was so thick it was near lightless.

"I didn't plan to take this human away," Oynk shook his head.

"Oh?"

Hearing this, the flames dimmed slightly.

"I'm here to help you flip the cards," Oynk stated.

"That's not necessary," the Demon's eyes flashed with a hint of panic.

"What? You think I'm not qualified?" Oynk's facial muscles tensed.

If his face had some comical aspect in normal times, now it was only deeply terrifying.

"You're clearly in cahoots, I'm afraid you'll cheat," the Demon quickly found an excuse.

"That's not a concern," Oynk tore off his vest and then took off his shorts and underwear.

He became as bare as a pig waiting to be slaughtered.

"Is there a problem now, unless you say I can hide cards inside my anus," Oynk said.

The Demon wanted to agree, but it feared Oynk would find it an excuse to challenge it to a duel.

Though Oynk could not kill it, for beings like them, face was not cheaper than life.

"Oynk, you don't have to do this for a human. Don't you hate humans the most?" the Demon tried to persuade.

"I hate all of you," Oynk said indifferently.

"Humans, Niu Ma, Succubi, Demons, Pig-headed people, I hate everyone in this world.

"Human, do you hate them?"

He asked Liu Zheng.

"Of course."

```

From the first day he entered the instance, rage and disgust had burned within him.

"Can you change this world?"

"No."

Liu Zheng replied decisively.

"Can't you speak properly?"

Niu Ma grew impatient, raising its hoof to stuff his mouth.

"But I can destroy it."

Liu Zheng dodged its hoof.

"That works, too."

Oynk nodded.

Then he took a step forward.

A vast shadow rose, shrouding more than half the casino in darkness.

One shadowy hand pressed on the Demon's shoulder, immobilizing it.

Another shadowy hand flipped over a card.

A queen of spades.

"I think the other card should be a two of spades, don't you agree?"

Oynk said.

"You're right."

After a long silence, the Demon flipped over the card.

Indeed, a two of spades.

"See, I told you it was a two of spades."

Oynk nodded in satisfaction as the shadow returned to his feet.

"A straight flush wins."

The Succubus croupier announced the result.

"Let's go, drop by my place when you're free."

Having exchanged for cash, Oynk left with the two of them in tow.

"OYNK!!!!"

As soon as the casino doors closed, the Demon let out a furious roar.

Black flames swept across the entire casino, reducing all gamblers and attendants to ashes.

Only the Succubus and the cowboy were watching it, their lips curling into a faint, mocking smile.

-----------------

"Give me the money."

In the alley of the black market, Oynk held out his hand.

"What money?"

Niu Ma tried to feign ignorance.

Oynk pulled out the Slaughter Knife from his underpants.

"Here, take it."

Niu Ma begrudgingly handed over half.

Oynk didn't waste words, pocketed the money, and headed to his own slaughterhouse.

"That was a big loss."

Niu Ma sighed with regret.

"Isn't there still half left?"

Liu consoled him.

"What do you know? I'll never be able to get into the casino again."

Niu Ma lamented.

This time he had offended the Demon badly. If they met again, it would definitely flay his skin to use as a cushion.

"Yeah, truly sorry for your loss."

He said perfunctorily.

"Sorry my ass, split the money, split the money."

After some friendly negotiations, Niu Ma took most of the remaining money, while Liu Zheng got a small part and the Legendary delivery man's takeout box.

30,000 in cash.

"Hand it over."

Niu Ma reached out its hoof.

"What for?"

"Did you forget, you still owe me money for the Mao Tai."

Niu Ma said.

"You're really tight-fisted."

Despite his contempt, Liu Zheng still gave him the money.

After all, it wasn't enough to buy a Scalped Ticket, so a little more or less didn't make much of a difference.

And most importantly, there was this.

He opened the lunch box and, before placing it into the Legendary Takeout Box, he specifically activated the item description.

"Name: Mermaid Egg Fried Rice"

"Type: Item"

"Quality: Excellent"

"Effect: Constitution +3, can obtain a trace amount of oxygen through the skin while in the water."

"Note: Behind every bowl of fried rice lies a broken Fishman family."

"Can it be taken out of the instance: Yes"

Looking at the effects of the meal, Liu Zheng was very satisfied.

The attributes weren't increased by much, but it was precisely the crucial constitution attribute.

Now, after the status reset, he should no longer be half-crippled.

The latter effect might not seem like much, but this kind of survival ability enhancement could come in handy at any time.

Most importantly, it was free.

"Let's go, the time is almost up."

Liu Zheng checked his phone and his face paled.

He shouldered the Legendary Takeout Box and sprinted toward the exit of the black market.

"Hey, wait up, I haven't finished putting away my money."

Niu Ma stood upright, cramming money into its mouth with its hoof while chasing after Liu Zheng.
