Chapter 124: Kuroko's Casino
"Come, come, buy, buy, buy!" Kuroko held a dice tube in his left hand, and his right hand played five dice around, just this seemingly ordinary hand, has already revealed his identity as an old gambler.
"Great!"
"Great!"
"Small!"
"Great!"
The people around them began to bet in a mess, and the war between the North and the South lasted longer than anyone could have imagined. Under this long-term attrition, the recruitment and replenishment of soldiers are inevitable.
Because of this, many mercenaries, robbers, gangsters and the like have also been included in the regular army of the Hawke Empire. At most, these guys will train in the rear for half a year, and then they will be pulled to the front line for life and death fighting. But there is no doubt that it is difficult to completely eliminate the wildness of these recruits in this half-year training. Because of this, there are more and more thorns in the Hawke Empire's army, so much so that it can be summed up to make an independent brigade later......
Although these guys have done a lot of bubbling things on weekdays, according to their eyes, they are still tightly restrained. So, when they were singled out to gather in such a strange place. As soon as these unruly soldiers met, it was as if a lone wolf had found a companion for many years, and even in the middle of the night for the past two days, the wolf howls could be heard by the townspeople in the vicinity......
And when Kordak entered this so-called "barracks", he was also amazed by the lively scene inside. Gambling, jousting, onlookers, drinking, singing...... Kordaq even suspected that, apart from the poor conditions and the absence of women, the barracks had no less entertainment than Melindel's largest entertainment venue, Second Heaven.
And among them, the most eye-catching is the gambling game opened by the sunspots. The three inner and outer three floors were full of people, and many soldiers on the periphery waved the silver coins in their hands, shouting and placing bets without even looking at the situation in the gambling game.
"Let's go over there. Although he had been reminded by Alexander, Kordaq still had a bit of a headache after seeing this scene, they had not encountered anyone to stop them since they entered the barracks! I'm afraid that even the mercenary group of the civilian organization is much better disciplined than them, right?
"I'm sorry, let me go. Kordaq said, but the soldiers in front of him did not react in the slightest.
"Let's go!" Kordak raised his voice, but it still had no effect.
"Let ......" Cordak wanted to raise his voice again, but looking at the excited looks of the group, he estimated that he would not necessarily pay attention to him even if he shouted into their ears. So, the strong man shrugged helplessly, and then muttered, "Forget it." ”
Immediately after, a series of miserable howls rang out from the periphery of the gambling game. Kordaq grabbed the soldiers by the back collar like a kitten, and threw them out without looking.
With this violent means, Kordaq finally opened a path to the heart of the game. But at the same time, his high-profile move also attracted everyone's attention.
"I knew it would work best. Kordak flicked his shoulders and muttered to himself.
"Brother want to come and play two?" Kuroko didn't think it was strange to see Kordak, they had been living together for almost two weeks, you can ask, who in this barracks doesn't know about the "Kuroko Casino"? These guys seem to be here too, but what's going on with those girls behind them?
"We were mercenaries passing by, and when we saw that it was quite lively, we came over to take a look. It's a little itchy now, can you get over two handfuls?" Kordaq smiled.
"No problem, there are silver coins, anyone is welcome!" Kuroko looked very hospitable: "How many young ladies are coming together?"
"No, we don't have that hobby. Vera showed a sweet smile, which made Regner can't help but feel a little creepy, he knows Vera, when this eldest sister smiles sweetly, that is when she is the most murderous.
"That's a shame. "Kuroko is a little sorry, this girl is in good shape, if you can bet on taking off your clothes, it is estimated that the scene will be very beautiful for a while, but since people are unwilling, Kuroko will not force it. Although he is an old gambler, his gambling has always been well-known.
And the reason why he didn't ask about the more beautiful Anne Lott or Innellis was entirely because of Anne Lot's mental misdirection. The Frost Maiden also knew that her group of women entering the barracks might cause some unnecessary trouble. So at the beginning, she used her mental power to mislead the soldiers present, making them feel that their appearance was not so eye-catching.
"Okay, what's the game?" Kordaq looked imposing, he deliberately sat there with a big grin, and drove out the few soldiers around him who still wanted to participate, leaving only Kuroko and his two companions.
"It's not bragging, we were bodyguards in the casino, and there are basically no rules that we don't understand, so brother, just say it. Kuroko beckoned, and then all kinds of gambling equipment were brought over, dice, playing cards, mahjong, and so on......
"It's quite well-equipped. Kordak was a little surprised: "Let's start with the simplest dice ratio." Xiao Lei, come with me!"
"Okay!" Regner was also eager to try, although he didn't have any gambling addiction, but it was good to have nothing to do here to play two games, and he was just warming up for a while.
But after ten minutes, Kordak and Regner's faces turned ugly. Because the sunspot's gambling skills are really not covered, the five sieves are shaking in the tube as if they are pinching in his hands, almost as many times as he wants.
They simply gambled a few games, and then the change of a few silver coins in their pockets was almost lost.
"Something else?" asked Kuroko triumphantly.
"It's fine. Kordak nodded.
However, the change of rules did not bring victory to Kordak, and Kuroko still killed them and turned them on their backs. As a result, half an hour later, the two half-baked gamblers, Kordaq and Regner, had lost four or five gold coins. Although Kuroko's gambling skills amazed the onlookers, but the wealth of Kordak and Regner was even more shocking.
"Hey, boss, we're not in a good position...... Regna whispered as he poked Kordak in the waist.
Originally, according to Kordak's plan, he was to establish his authority in the casino or the liquor hall first, and use the rules of these rabble to deter them first. Then Kordak was throwing off the stance, using absolute force to beat them into submission. This is the method that Kordak has been thinking about for a long time, and although it is a little simple and crude, if you think about it, it may be the only method that is the most effective.
But Kordak never expected that he would encounter a strong sniper at the first step of this plan. If you are killed by these guys in the casino at this time, and your identity will be revealed at that time, this captain will not be embarrassed to grandma's house?
"What should I do?" asked Regner.
"You go and ask Anne, she's a mage, maybe there's something you can do. Kordak whispered.
"It's useless, I'm a mage, not a gambler, I haven't understood the rules of your gambling until now, and I can't help you. Annelot seemed to have heard the conversation between the two, and she quietly used a teleportation technique to say to the two of them.
"Hell, are you going to leave today?!" thought Kordak, a little annoyed.
"I see you're almost having fun, why don't you just leave it at that?" Kuroko smiled, he saw that the faces of the two people were not very good, so he also had the heart to put a hand.
"That ......" Kordaq was just about to make a strategic retreat when a crisp voice rang out behind him.
"Why don't I play two!" said Alian, who had just heard about the plans of the Kordak men in the carriage. So I also know that if I go back like this, it will not be particularly good for the Kordak people.
Although Ah Lian is not particularly cold to Kordak, they are also friends of the young lady. Since her friend is in trouble, Miss must not be happy now. Then helping Kordak is helping Miss, and helping Miss is what Allian should do.
So, at this juncture of great embarrassment, the brave little maid stepped forward.
"Oh?" Kuroko squinted at the little girl in front of him, and then said, "Will you?"
Ah Lian picked up the playing cards on the table with disdain, and then smoothly made a set of fancy card cutting actions, followed by two machine gun shuffles. She did all this before she smiled and said, "A little bit." ”
Kuroko immediately became interested, he understood how difficult Ah Lian's set of moves was, it could be said that if it wasn't for a veteran who had been immersed in it for several years, it would be difficult to play so many tricks. Therefore, for a while, Kuroko had a feeling of meeting an opponent in chess. He asked, "Do you still gamble?"
"That's not going to work!" Ah Lian shook her head: "I didn't have any money with me today." ”
"Then bet on clothes!" Before Kordak could say anything about borrowing money, Kuroko said first.
"No problem!" Ah Lian was surprisingly bold.
"How do you want to come?" Kuroko looked at this confident girl, and her heart burned with a strong fighting spirit.
"Just do it again in the order you just did. Ah Lian said-for-tat.
......
Although I don't know how strong Ah Lian's strength is, Kuroko's gambling skills are obvious to all. Cordak and Regner are both two people who gamble all the way from the interior of the Reims continent to the seaside, but they only have to lose their armor when facing sunspots. Therefore, everyone present was not particularly optimistic about Ah Lian. And the reason why they didn't stop Ah Lian was purely with the mentality of treating a dead horse as a live horse doctor.
But a few minutes later, a scene that stunned everyone appeared. Ah Lian's warm clothes have not disappeared at all, and the sunspot opposite is only a pair of underwear shivering in the late winter wind......
