Chapter 372: The machines of Huang Quan
What do these machines do?
Everyone in the world was curious.
After the Game of Eternal and the Murder Clown, the world’s governments were extremely cautious towards such unknown objects and events.
At first, the world governments banned their citizens from approaching the machines.
But these machines knew how to teleport, so when and where they appeared was completely random and without any warning.
A few brave Professionists and even normal citizens very quickly got used to these four machines.
The machines’ functions and usage method quickly spread like wildfire across the world.
Finally, even a few governmental offices were using these machines.
The governments have no choice but to keep one eye open and one eye closed.
The Confederate.
A large city.
7-8 policemen were standing around the Suffering Sea Rescuer Machine, anxiously looking as one of them operated it.
The operator was sweating profusely.
He was staring without blinking at the claw-machine-looking incomprehensible existence in front of himself.
Carefully moving the controller, he aimed the claw at a doll.
“Now!”
He pressed the button.
The claw moved down and precisely caught the doll.
But halfway up, the doll dropped back down.
“Ahh!”
“Damn it!”
“Failed again!”
The policemen’s tense hearts sank back down.
“Still not yet?” a voice came asking.
The policemen turned around, stood straight up and shouted: “Sir!”
“Hello sir!”
A fat man wearing police uniform walked in, nodding to the group.
He then pushed a skinny young man from behind him forward.
The young man’s complexion was pale and unbelievably skinny; he was wearing an outfit that was too baggy for him.
This was his best outfit.
The fat policeman spoke: “I’ve invited a crane game master! We’ll definitely succeed this time!”
The policemen all yelled in joy.
Very quickly, the young man was now standing in front of the claw machine and putting his hand on a sensor.
The claw machine lit up as game music started to play.
[One drop of blood for one play]
The young man glanced behind at the fat policeman.
The man told him: “I’ll pay you 1000 credits for every drop of blood”
It was now that the young man nodded.
He received a card from the police and read from it: “Wang Ming Cai, 16 years old, female”
A light from inside the claw machine scanned over all the dolls.
[It’s been prepared, have fun!] a voice came from the claw machine.
The young man took the controls, quickly glancing over all the dolls.
He was looking for a good doll to catch.
As a crane game master, he’s almost reached the level of never losing even once.
His family used to run a large arcade, but when the Man Eater Fiends came, the whole place was destroyed.
Both his parents were eaten alive, he fortunately managed to escape; however, he had nowhere to return to after that.
The Apocalypse had destroyed his wonderful home and now he had to struggle day-by-day on the streets.
The young man operated the claw, quickly picking out an appropriate doll to grab.
He literally grew up playing this game.
Finally, the young man picked out a doll!
Clack!
He pressed the button.
Following a unique tune, the claw descended.
The doll was caught!
Next was the most crucial part.
The claw grabbed the doll and slowly returned.
Usually, this was where it was most likely to fail.
The claws of claw machines are specifically made to be loose and unable to grab onto the dolls tightly.
The policeman just now also failed at this stage.
But for some reason, the doll the young man grabbed didn’t fall and stayed neatly on the claw.
It slowly moved back.
Finally, the doll went into the chute.
“Yah!” the policemen exclaimed joyfully.
The claw machine asked: [Congratulations, you can now see Wang Ming Cai, would you like to meet her now?]
The young man looked at the fat policeman.
He nodded.
“Yes please” the young man said.
[Very well, now proceeding] the claw machine spoke.
A few moments later, a cute, young girl appeared in front of the claw machine.
When she saw the people in front of her, she was clearly surprised.
There were traces of blood on her face, her body tied tightly to the chair, unable to move at all.
“Little Cai!” a middle-aged couple ran up and hugged the girl.
“Papa? Mama? Whaaaa” the girl burst into tears.
The policemen took out tools to help untie the girl.
The fat policeman pressed his walkie-talkie and ordered: “The hostage has been rescued. Mobile taskforce, raid the place!”
He quickly arranged everything.
The young man stood up and looked at the fat policeman: “Can you pay me now?”
The fat man squeezed out a flattering smile.
He couldn’t help it, crane games are just too hard.
“You see, I still have a few wanted criminals here, can you help us out?” he took out a few wanted posters and gave them to the young man.
Receiving the papers, he looked through each of them and answered: “No problem, but what about the money?”
“Same deal as before, of course!” the fat policeman said.
Then he suddenly had an idea.
“Ah, wait a minute, do you want to be a policeman?” he asked.
Now that the Suffering Sea Rescuer exists, everyone can just catch a doll if they want to see somebody.
Once they do, the person will immediately appear where the machine is.
Of course!
The doll catching has to be with a just reason, otherwise the machine wouldn’t even start up.
Thanks to that, catching wanted criminals just became incredibly easy.
As long as their doll-catching skills are good enough, anyone can be caught within minutes!
The Suffering Sea Rescuer Machine just became the police’s best assistant.
The young man’s eyes lit up and hurriedly asked: “You mean I can become a police officer?”
“That’s right, with how good you are at the crane game, I can make an exception to accept you into the police force directly, are you willing to?”
“I am!”
“Then help me catch these infamous bastards”
“Yes sir!”
The young man loudly accepted.
…
Of the four Huang Quan machines, the one with the least customers was the number “23” machine.
It was a black vending machine, called the Anger Appeasing machine.
The “anger appeasing” part is that the machine will help you pinch someone’s nose or ears, block their eyes, tickle their feet or kick them in the butt… so on and so forth.
They aren’t really considered evil, only practical jokes at best, and there are hundreds of such practical jokes.
This was to sooth the user’s anger.
If you’re unsatisfied with that much, the Anger Appeasing Machine will silently whisper to you that it actually has boundless power, but the Prayers Trial Machine is its wife.
Because of her, it doesn’t dare to do things too evil and have to settle for such a level.
You only need to pay one drop of blood to have it do a few practical jokes to someone else for you.
But since the Apocalypse, countless people have lost their lives at the hands of the sea creatures, the Man Killer and Eater Fiends, as well as the appearance of three hells at once, who would be so free as to use this to pull pranks on someone?
This all changed at midnight on a certain day.
The Anger Appeasing Machine welcomed its first customer.
This customer was a 17-18 years old teenager.
Giving up a drop of blood, he activated the machine.
Ping Pong!
The Anger Appeasing Machine let out a small ring.
It then lowered its voice greatly, whispering: [Do you want to silently pull something evil on somebody? Using this machine to buy a prank, the Prayers Trial Machine will definitely be unable to discover you]
“I want to do evil” the teenager coldly declared.
[Then, what do you want to do?] the machine asked.
“Give me a portion of ‘tickling feet with a feather’ and ‘kicked in the butt with a large boot’” the teenager said without changing his expression.
[Then 20 drops of blood please]
The teenager put his hand on the black part of the machine.
[Very well, I’ve received your payment, please tell me the name of the victim] the machine asked.
“Can it be a pen name?”
[Yes]
The teenager then told him a name.
The machine spoke: [Currently tickling his feet, making sure that he’ll laugh his face off]
After a while, the machine continued: [Currently kicking his butt, guaranteeing that he knows someone holds a grudge against him]
[Your evil actions have ended, if you want to do evil again, please wait for 24 hours]
The teenager nodded with an expression of relief from getting revenge.
You could hear him mumbling: “Let see if you still dare to skip a daily upload…”
After the teenager left in satisfaction, a second customer quickly came.
Very quickly, the second customer also left with a triumphant expression on his face.
He said a lot of things, but it boils down to basically: “Little bitch… that’ll show you for cutting off chapters early…”
