Chapter 390 Nexus Casino
Chapter 390 Nexus Casino
After winning 5 octillion from the Primal Arena, Maximus began to proceed with his next plan: to earn Origin Coins.
Unlike Dimensional Coins, Origin Coins are a regulated currency used only by tier 11 powerhouses.
Origin Coins aren\'t produced from absorbing any energy like Dimensional Coins; instead, they are condensed fragments of dimensional origin.
Unless he was willing to cut apart the Etherium realm, no matter how many Dimensional Coins he had, they couldn\'t be exchanged for Origin Coins.
The only way to get Origin Coins was to exchange, earn, or even steal them.
The reason why he needed Origin Coins was because the Void Auction, which would happen three years later, mainly accepted Origin Coins.
If Maximus wanted to buy anything rare, he could only use Origin Coins.
Looking at the Nexus Casino, Maximus calmly walked inside.
"Hello, Your Excellency. Welcome to Nexus Casino!" the staff greeted.
Checking the man\'s identity, she was faced with various question marks.
[Magnus ???
???
???
???
??]
Besides the name, she couldn\'t see the man\'s origin, strength, and even his virtual avatar seemed to be in disguised.
Fortunately, she was quite professional and didn\'t change her expression, eagerly welcoming Maximus.
This is the Void Virtual Dimension.
Although it was still within the scope of the Dimensional Alliance, it was a gray area provided by the Virtual Realm.
Enemy dimensions, devourers, and wanted convicts all come here to do transactions.
Although it was more expensive than other parts of the Virtual Realm, it\'s a safe way for these vagrants to do their illegal business.
Seeing Maximus\'s identity full of question marks, she could only conclude he was a powerful being knowledgeable in virtual rune programming.
After getting inside, Maximus\'s eyes lit up.
The place smelled like money, filled with different gambling platforms that were popular across the Dimensional Alliance.
Feeling his power suddenly disappear, he didn\'t react.
This is one of the highest gambling institutions in the dimensional alliance; no form of cheating could be used.
Even his system seemed to malfunction, its scanning function prompting errors everywhere.
"The creator of this virtual world is indeed an Overlord," Maximus thought deeply.
The one who created the transdimensional system, this virtual realm that connected throughout all their planes of existence, is the leader of the Nexus Virtual Business Alliance, one of the three overlords.
An existence like that making a perfect virtual world with solid rules is nothing.
His system is a mere byproduct, a broken tier 12 treasure, compared to it.
Confirming his system didn\'t work, he could only sigh.
"It seems that it will be up to my skill to earn my way here..."
Although the scanning of the system didn\'t work, the life points that could boost the time of his consciousness still worked.
After mastering the games here to transcendence, and having the assistance of boosted consciousness, he was sure of winning.
Soon he came to a slot machine.
It had a thousand rows, with columns of millions of different images.
To win the game, the player needed to click the machine a thousand times, ensuring the same pictures lined up.
The prize depends on the number of image matches.
The minimum is 100 images matched, with 10 septillion dimensional coins price.
In normal times, this should be easy; a tier 4 individual could easily do this with his eyes closed.
However, in the casino, they were suppressed to a mortal body; their body, consciousness, thinking speed, special physique, and even the laws they mastered were restricted.
Seeing that he was about to try the slot machine, a man hurriedly came up to him.
"Are you stupid? This slot machine is just a scam," the man reminded.
"Oh," Maximus didn\'t care and continued to proceed.
Before he came here, he had already exchanged 1 octillion for chips.
Seeing that the machine only needed a 1-septillion-value chip, he calmly put it in.
"Crazy! 1 septillion just went down the drain!" the man said in distress.
This slot machine had no connection to luck whatsoever.
Unless one had a tier 12 treasure or Origin Grade Ultimate physique, they could only dream of winning this game.
Although the Nexus Casino suppressed anything, it was not omnipotent.
These over-the-limit items and abilities could only be severely limited, not completely banned.
However, those possessing either of the two wouldn\'t come here at all.
If one had a tier 12 treasure, the money one could make is far from comparable to this little casino.
After all, a casino couldn\'t let you win more than it can afford.
Changing identity over and over again just to avoid being banned by the casino is not worth the effort at all.
It\'s better to sit on the battlefield, casually killing some tier 10 powerhouses or even tier 11 powerhouses could net more income than playing these little games.
As for those who possess an Origin Grade physique, it is even more unlikely for them to appear here.
There are fewer than ten known individuals who possess an Origin Grade physique.
They were the treasures of the Dimensional Alliance, with all resources provided to them in unlimited quantity.
Playing in the casino is senseless and a waste of time.
There are far more exciting entertainments than mere gambling with money they didn\'t even earn.
While the man was in deep thought, Maximus had already begun clicking the slot machine.
With each click, an image showing Dimensional Coins appeared.
Soon, rows of Dimensional Coins appeared on the screen, stunning him.
"This-!"
Looking at the man before him still yawning in boredom, he seemed to be in a dream seeing something incredulous.
Meanwhile, Maximus\'s brain was processing thousands of years\' worth of information every second, slowing the machine to a snail\'s pace.
"This slot machine is indeed insane," he thought.
He initially believed a tier 4 individual was enough to win at this machine.
However, at the speed the machine was going, even a tier 9 individual might fail with a bit of carelessness.
Click~
Click~
Click~
With each click, the Dimensional Coins lined up, attracting a crowd.
"Who is this man?"
"This is insane! Is he cheating?!"
"Maybe it\'s luck?"
"What luck? Don\'t mention such an illusory thing."
"Even a tier 11 powerhouse who mastered the river of fate couldn\'t manipulate this thing."
Luck is but a construct of law; naturally, it is suppressed by the Nexus Casino.
Unless one had a fate surpassing their plane of existence, some luck wouldn\'t work.
As hundreds of Dimensional Coins lined up in the slot machine, the crowd got bigger and bigger.
One had to know that the prize of this slot machine, despite not being used often, was over 300 octillion Dimensional Coins.
Using 1 septillion Dimensional Coins for the prize, anyone would be tempted to try.
After billions of years, it accumulated such a huge amount.
Seeing that Maximus was about to line up a thousand images of dimensional coins, the crowd clenched their fists in excitement.
Maximus also began to sweat a little.
As more and more identical images lined up, the speed of the machine\'s rotation became faster and faster.
From thousands of years, his brain was now working millions of years each second.
Finally, when there was only one slot left to be filled, the machine began to rumble, overdriving its capability.
With ruthlessness, Maximus briefly overclocked his brain to billions of years and clicked the final slot.
Click~
With a thousand matching images, the casino lit up, celebrating Maximus\'s win.
As chips with the value of a septillion began to fall, shouts of excitement filled the casino.
Looking at the money raining down on him, Maximus smiled.
"316 octillion? Not bad!" Maximus muttered in excitement.
Although it was a bit high profile, he couldn\'t care less.
Unless the creator of this virtual realm checked himself, no one could find his real identity.
Picking up the chips from the ground, he looked toward another slot machine.
Although it was a little low compared to the one he just played, it was still filled with over 100 octillion dimensional coins.
"Are you going to play with another slot machine?" the man who had warned him earlier asked.
"Tsk, tsk, are you going to bankrupt the casino?"
"Hehe, fellow gentleman, do you want to follow me to some business?"
While the crowd kept chattering, luring him into various schemes, Maximus walked to the next slot machine.
However, before he could even play, a warning notice appeared.
[Warning: Player is detected to win over 100 octillion]
[Please go to the special gambling area, or exit the Nexus Casino.]
Seeing the notice, his lips couldn\'t help but twitch.
"How stingy, you should at least let me win a few more times," Maximus muttered in dissatisfaction.
Hearing this, the crowd beside him was also speechless.
300 octillion was already over the top.
It was already most of a tier 10 individual asset after saving for millions to billions of epochs, yet it seemed it wasn\'t enough for Maximus.
Having a limit of 100 octillion was already the casino being generous and open-minded.
"How do I go to the special gambling area?" Maximus asked around.
This was his goal on this trip: the special gambling area, the place where he could earn Origin Coins.
