Todd, who has never been in contact with aristocrats since he traveled to another world, still has the impression in his mind that he is still stuck in the movies and television works and novels and comics of his previous life, and he once thought that this group represented nobility and elegance. Therefore, in order to get the right to sell in Silver Ring City, the first thing he thought of at the table was the experience of his previous life. What he has to do is nothing more than to deliberately lose a few pots of moon season in the gambling game, everyone will be happy with each other, and then have a negotiation with these people in a calm and mutually beneficial manner. Everything will fall into place.

Originally, he thought so.

But he finally forgot one important thing, this is not the past life of civilization at all, but a medieval world where savage and darkness coexist. Any code of conduct and social perception that has been proven to be valid in the past will be completely overturned here.

If Bishop Fabian's advice can only be regarded as a warning, and the cheating of the nobles in the gambling game can only be regarded as an unpleasant episode, then the inhuman treatment of the alien species really made Todd understand such a truth.

These so-called aristocrats in front of them are nothing but synonymous with barbarism and arbitrariness, and their greed is like a bottomless abyss, and there is no word "stop".

In that case, why not untie the chains of the 'greedy' beast and watch it devour everything......

Before Todd returned to the table, he picked up a playing card made of silver and copper alloy, the front of the card was a hand-drawn pattern, and the back was a smooth mirror-like plane, trying to use the ability of "perspective", penetrating this thin layer of metal was no problem, although the pattern on the front was looming, but it was a piece of cake to distinguish the card.

Viscount Kennard turned to Todd and asked, "Father, I don't know what you mean by playing bigger?"

"Have you ever heard of a proportional sequence?"

People look at each other, and no one knows.

Todd picked up a poker card in his hand and said slowly: "Losing one is 10 silver moons." ”

He held up the second one: "The second one doubles, that's 20 silver moons." ”

The third: "The third one doubles again, which is 40 silver moons." ”

He held up the three cards in his hand together: "If the game is over, I still have three cards in my hand, which means that I have lost 70 silver months." Except for the replacement of the method of calculating the chips according to the number of cards in reserve, the other rules are all the same, how about it?"

The viscount carefully calculated, if the previous gamble, according to this kind of play, Todd would have already won all the moon seasons in his hands, where would it be delayed until now. Besides, even in the worst-case scenario, he will lose thousands of silver moons, which is painless for him.

Exchanging glances with another nobleman at the poker table, Kennard nodded: "A game is always won by dozens of silver moons, and I'm tired of it, so I'll do as you say!

Todd glanced at the pot of moon in front of the queen, and then at the eleven pot of moon in front of the viscount, and asked, "Do you still approve the price of flowers that grow in this sacred place the same as before?"

"I just looked for someone to see it, a pot of 50 silver coins, it's still this price!"

Todd nodded, indicating no more objections.

At this time, Queen Mary, who was sitting on the throne, opened her mouth to say something, but after looking at the priest's expression for a while, she finally gave up her words.

The game under the new rules resumed, and Todd was dual-minded, playing cards and using abilities to see everything around him.

Soon, he spotted the two nobles at the table, looking up behind him from time to time.

Todd turned the back of the card behind his shoulder, using Eagle Eye's ability to carefully distinguish the glowing mirror image, and a manservant who frequently touched his head not far behind him caught his attention.

Sometimes the man touches his ears with his hands, sometimes he touches the bridge of his nose with his hands, and his fingers are sometimes erect and sometimes lowered.

"Voyeurs"?

Peeking at your opponent's cards and using gestures to signal them is an old-fashioned cheat that is simple and effective.

Looking at the table in front of him with the ability of "perspective", Todd noticed that there was another mystery in the stack of cards of the two opposite.

The two nobles opposite, stacked cards on the table, face down, with the thumbs of both hands facing inward, blocking the view of others. There is a dark groove at the bottom of the table, when the palm is forced, the dark groove can appear, and the smooth metal card is slid along the channel in the table to the end of the groove at the other end, and the other person only needs to press the palm again, and the playing cards in the channel can be bounced into the hand.

Todd shook his head, it seems that these people have really worked hard for this gamble.

At the end of the game, Todd lost 4 cards as a pirate, and had to pay 160 silver moons (10+20+40+80) to the viscount as a knight, and to the amazement of the onlookers, the bet was converted into three moons.

"Are you sure you want to continue?"

Unexpectedly, the voice actually came from Queen Mary. The latter stood up from his position and looked at the priest with something in his eyes that he could not read.

Todd looked at her for a moment, then nodded emphatically.

The queen sighed, waved her hand, and sat back down.

A new round begins.

This time it was Todd's turn to be the Cavaliers, and after repeated defeats, he asked to shuffle the cards himself.

Viscount Kennard looked at him with a funny gaze, as if he were watching an idiot who had lost to the extreme and began to mess around, and quite generously agreed to the request.

Todd shuffled the cards in a rather strange way, he spread all the cards face down and back up on the table, and while chanting the prayer, he took out the cross on his chest and tapped the back of each card three times, and when he was done, he put it away one by one.

The viscount laughed, he looked at the priest and said, "Do you still expect the Father to deliver miracles?"

Todd glanced at him, pointed to the moon flower pot in front of him, and said reverently: "Isn't everything in front of you enough to prove the supreme power?"

Kennard put away his smile, glanced at the cross in his father's hand, swallowed, and said no more.

The minions began to deal the cards, first Todd, then the two nobles, and distributed them round by circle. Everyone found that the priest had left the playing cards scattered on the table, and instead of picking them up and sorting them out, he was praying silently there.

The viscount first glanced at the cards in his hand, then glared at Todd, who was motionless, and tapped the table with his knuckles, and he reminded: "Priest, you should play the cards first. ”

"Heavenly Father has sent down the Holy Judgment, and the outcome of this game has been decided. ”

Listening to the other party's words, Kennard's anger rushed up: "Heavenly Father can't control my card table! Pick up your cards, Father!"

Todd glanced at him, stretched out his hands, and turned over his own cards on the table, one by one.

When people saw the cards, they laughed at first, then fell silent, and finally gasped.

"3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, J...... Nine pairs!'

Seeing that the two opposite sides were dumbfounded, and the cards in his hand also fell to the ground, Todd slowed down his speech and began to calculate the betting chips little by little.

"The first card is 10 Silver, the second is 20 Silver, the third is 40 Silver, the fourth is 80 Silver, the fifth is 160 Silver, and the sixth is 320 Silver...... The seventeenth 131072 Silver Moon, and the eighteenth Silver Moon, 262144 a total of 524287 Silver Moons for one person. Oh, I almost forgot, if a card is not played, it should be tripled, which is 1572861 Silver Moon. If the two of you are together, it will be 3145722 silver moon. ”

The priest pushed back the chair, stood up and straightened his clothes, looked at the silent hall, and said with a smile: "It may take some time for more than three million silver moons to be prepared. But I don't think there will be such a thing as defaulting. Both of them are people with heads and faces, not to mention that so many people are present today, and Her Majesty the Queen even witnessed this gamble in person. ”

Viscount Kennard slumped in his chair, his face was earthy, his body trembled, and the yellow mark on his crotch grew larger and larger.

"Oh, that's right!" Todd snatched the chains of the xenophile from the hands of the dumb-looking servants, and shouted to the people, "Dealing with xenos is naturally a matter for the church, and I ask you to hold up your noble hands and cooperate with the work." ”

Todd led the girl to the door of the hall, turned back to the silent hall and said, "Please be pious at all times, and remember that the Father is always watching us. ”
