Chapter 698: Gamble
He flew toward the entrance of the casino.
He then pushed the door and entered.
There were not a lot of people there. There were only two jesters and a gambling table.
Among the two jesters, one of them was a little bit chubby and wearing a jester’s hat. The other one was slim and wore a red jester’s hat.
“Haha, big, big, big…”
Heehee, small, small, small…”
At this time, the two jesters were gambling at the table, and it looked like they were very happy.
“Ahahaha! Big! You lost, hee hee! 10,000 slivers of the Law of Strength for me!” The fat jester won and laughed as he extended his hand toward the skinny jester.
The skinny jester was saddened and drew slivers of the Law of Strength from his own body using his hand, and then waved it toward the fat jester.
The fat jester extended his hand to accept the slivers of the Law of Strength and melded it into himself.
Jiang Feng was astonished to see this scene.
He did not know that it could be done. In truth, he wanted to remove some of those random Law Demesnes within him and only master the nine most powerful Demesnes.
While mastering more Demesnes meant that he would have more skills, but it would slow down the growth of the other skills.
“Ahaha, who are you?” At this time, the fat jester noticed Jiang Feng’s existence and laughed out loudly.
Jiang Feng walked over with a faint smile. “What is this place?”
“Hee hee, didn’t you see the signboard? This is a casino! No matter what you want to play, both of us brothers can play with you. If you want, you can put Primordial Divine Artifacts and Primal Divine Artifacts as wagers!” The skinny jester said to Jiang Feng with a smile.
Jiang Feng looked at the information on the fat and skinny jesters, but all he could see was that the fat jester was called Haha, while the skinny jester was called Heehee. He could not check anything else.
But since Haha and Heehee were within the Bottomless Pit, that meant that they could not be the NPCs from the Divine Dominion.
He remembered that the Dragon Emperor of Space-Time said that there were outsiders within the Bottomless Pit. No one knew where these outsiders came from, but there was one thing that was certain. These outsiders were all extremely powerful.
While the Dragon Emperor of Space-Time had cleared out a portion of them, there were still plenty of them within the Bottomless Pit.
“You have Primordial Divine Artifacts and Primal Divine Artifacts?” Jiang Feng asked with curiosity.
Heehee scanned Jiang Feng and said, “Heehee, yes. And we have plenty of them. By the time we noticed you, your net worth has already been revealed to us. And that includes your desire! Especially your desire for Primordial Divine Artifacts and Primal Divine Artifacts!”
Hm?
‘These two have the ability to see one’s desire!’ Jiang Feng was shocked, but once he gave it a thought, he could understand why. The casino within the Bottomless Pit had to be much higher level than the other casinos out there. As the managers of the casino, naturally they would have some special skills.
If they could see through a gambler’s desire, only then would they be able to press the correct buttons so that it would give rise to the gambler’s desire to gamble.
“Haha! Boy, care to play a game?”
“Of course! Why not!” His luck was very high. And since he wanted Heehee and Haha to draw the unnecessary Laws from inside of him, naturally he wanted to play a game with them.
Haha became excited.
It had been so long since there was someone else coming into this place. All this while, only Heehee and him had been gambling here and it was getting dull.
Now that someone was here to gamble with them, they were naturally quite happy.
Haha then asked, “What game are we playing? Dice or poker?”
“Dice!”
Dice games were quick and simple. He would naturally choose dice.
“What game then?’
“Guess the number. I will put my Law of Space as wager. I will be the dealer!”
“Haha! Of course!”
…
With Jiang Feng as the dealer, he began to roll the dice within the dice tumbler.
Among all the games of dice, guessing the number was the hardest. As the banker, as long as they guessed it wrongly, he would be able to benefit from it.
But he believed that Heehee and Haha had been gambling for so long, it should be quite easy for them to be able to listen by ear and guess the number.
In order to stop the two of them from listening to him rolling the dice, he shook the tumbler for a while before placing the tumbler on the desk.
At this time, Heehee and Haha’s eyes flashed with interest. It was obvious that they already knew the numbers within.
But he would not allow things to progress as the two of them had expected. A sliver of Inner Chi rushed out from his body and entered the dice tumbler. It enveloped the dice, rolling them around without making any noise.
In Divine Dominion, he could still use Inner Chi. He had already tried it before.
Those who had never been to the Great World of Tianji would not understand just what Inner Chi was.
“Haha! Boy, you aren’t being totally honest here!”
After he used his Inner Chi to change the number, Jiang Feng then waited for the two of them to call. Suddenly, Haha pointed to Jiang Feng and said with a laugh.
Jiang Feng was at first surprised before giving him a smile and said, “You too!”
It seemed like other than sound, Heehee and Haha had other ways of knowing the numbers of the dice within the tumbler.
However, Jiang Feng had done something to the dice. They might know the number of the dice, but they would not know what he had done to it.
“Heehee, I call 7. 5,000 slivers of the Law of Space!”
Heehee said as he pulled something out from his temple with his hand. A sliver of Law of Space the thickness of one’s thumb was pulled out, and it contained exactly 5,000 slivers of Law of Space.
“Haha! Heehee, you are wrong. Don’t let him deceive you! I call 8, 20,000 slivers of Law of Space!” When Jiang Feng heard what Haha said, his expression changed slightly.
He did not expect that Haha would be able to see through his skill.
When Haha saw Jiang Feng’s face darken, he then said confidently, “Haha, boy! The wager has been made, it’s too late to go against your words. If you do anything now, you’ll be considered cheating and you’ll die here! Now, open it!”
“Heehee, open it.”
While Heehee knew that he had guessed it wrongly, he did not care as long as Haha won and the casino did not make any losses.
Looking at the confident Heehee and Haha, Jiang Feng let out a sneer despite his scowl. He then yelled out loudly and opened the dice tumbler. “Betting closed. Open!’
The three dice within the tumbler showed 1, 2, and 5, for a total of 8.
However, the dice that showed the roll of 5 looked a bit weird. Because for this set of dice, 5 was blue in color. However, this die, the 5 was formed of 4 red dots and 1 blue dot in the middle. That meant that the blue dot on the die was deliberately created by Jiang Feng and placed on it.
Heehee was the one placing the wager, and he added the blue dot when Heehee was extracting his Law of Space. That meant that 7 became 8 at that moment.
Haha, who managed to react to it, naturally would not be like Heehee and he called 8 instead.
“Hahaha! I won!”
Just as Haha was going to extract the Law of Space from Jiang Feng, Jiang Feng suddenly called out, “Did you?”
Next, Jiang Feng blew at the three dice.
In the next moment, under the surprised gaze of the two, on the die with the five dots with a mix of red and blue, the four red dots disappeared. On two opposite edges, two blue dots appeared. That meant that the 5 on the die became a 3, which meant that the total number of the three dice was 5.
It was not exactly cheating, as it was merely confirming the original number of the dice.
T/L Note: …What?
Not to mention that this was the number he originally rolled out. He only used his Inner Chi to set up a fake trap.
“Apologies, it seems that I’ve won!” With a smile, Jiang Feng extended his hand and had the 25,000 slivers of Law of Space fused with the Law of Chaos within his body.
With those 25,000 slivers of Law of Space, the number of Law of Space within him had reached 200,000. He was at the zenith of being able to form the Demesne of Space, and he was overjoyed.
