After so many years of development, the gambling methods of the city that never sleeps are constantly changing, from scratch, from less to more, compared to the poor entertainment methods on the ground, it is completely two extremes.

However, the development direction of gambling here is different from that of the modern earth, and there is no straight line towards pai gow, dice, roulette, etc., but more in line with the situation of this otherworld, and tends to develop towards magic-related gambling methods.

When Rowan entered the casino, the first thing he saw was a game full of magic - a hat trick!

The so-called hat-trick, of course, has nothing to do with football, and the hat-trick here is a very common game.

The rules of the game are roughly as follows:

First, in the presence of the audience, the host blesses a number of numbered balls with glowing and floating magic, and then takes out three or more hats, each of which is also blessed with floating magic.

After that, the host used his hat to cover all the floats one by one, and then used magic to manipulate all the hats to line up in the air, and then used various techniques to mix and shuffle the hats.

Finally, the audience bets on each hat, either on whether there is a ball in the hat or on the number of the ball in the hat.

Overall, this is a hard-power game that can rely on eyesight to guarantee a win rate!

But the host is also quite powerful, and will use a variety of magic light effects to cover up, which can not only make the game process extremely gorgeous, but also achieve the purpose of confusing the eye.

Rowan was a spectator next to him for a while, relying on his extraordinary eyesight to bet a few times, but he made a small profit.

He prefers a game that relies entirely on hard power to gamble on luck, and even if he wins here without suspicion - he will be removed from the store and blacklisted.

After he won a few times, he realized that the host didn't look at him right, so he hurriedly walked away and continued to look for new projects.

Soon, he found another interesting project!

It's not gambling, it's an entertaining game that tests the ability to sense magic.

Participants are blindfolded, using only their magic sensing ability to sense the magic cursor on the robot, and then tap it with their hands, each of which makes a sound.

As the game progresses, the speed of the magic cursor will gradually increase, the difficulty of hitting will continue to increase, and at the end of the day, the points will be calculated based on the number of cursors hit.

Overall, it's supposed to be a music game that's a lot like playing a flower drum.

"I'm coming, I'm coming!"

The animatronic elves screamed in her pocket, and she had full confidence in the game.

But Rowan, after watching with interest for a while, left without hesitation, because his magic perception was very poor, really poor.

"It always feels like this casino is more like a gaming hall than a casino...... Unfortunately, they are all games that require a high level of magical manipulation skills, so it's no wonder that they are barely visible on the ground. ”

After going around, Luo Wen's heart gradually had some B numbers, and after he casually played some projects that he was interested in, Shi Shiran chose to leave.

Games like this in a casino, although they are all interesting, are all petty and do not make a sensation and do not attract people.

So after he had a bite to eat at the roadside stall, he walked straight to the nearest large casino, as shown on the map.

There's only one item in that casino, and that's the Beast!

There are also Colosseums on the ground in Fernandi, but those are more of a performative nature, and although there are some win-loss gambling mixed in, they are not mainly gambling.

And the Colosseum in this city that never sleeps is the kind of large casino that is very professional and has a variety of betting methods!

When he was in the tavern, Rowan once heard from a guest that there was a very taboo beast fighting project in the city that never sleeps in the past, which was sold by fighting humans and monsters, and then bet on humans to survive under the monsters' minions for a few minutes!

Because it was so bloody and inhumane, the project was completely banned shortly after it appeared.

Since then, there have been many more civilized ways of fighting in the Colosseum, the most famous of which is the Beast Jumping Race, in which professional beast fighters ride ferocious beasts to cross obstacles and sprint to the finish line!

There is no fighting, no blood, but there is still the blood of fighting beasts.

What's more, the mode of competition that allows multiple people to compete together and the uncertainty that will inevitably arise in obstacle courses make the competition more possible and make the bets more diverse and exciting.

Rowan followed the flow of people into the venue, and immediately heard the shouts of the audience and the roar of the fighting beasts, and immediately felt a fierce atmosphere of blood surging.

And the aristocrats who were neighing and screaming with various information books in the audience also gradually reminded him of the scene of horse betting.

He shook his head and walked into the audience, through the aisle, trying to get to the front row to get a closer look at the beast fighter and the beast, and then see if he could see anything from it before considering whether to bet.

However......

When he just walked to the front row, he suddenly heard a deliberately low voice: "Zephyr, why are you here?" ”

Rowan didn't realize that someone was calling him at first, so he took two more steps forward.

But the next moment, the person who called him lifted his cane and poked lightly at his heel.

He realized that someone recognized him, and immediately turned to look at the man.

The man was dressed in standard aristocratic attire, over forty years old, with a serious expression, staring at the field in front of him without squinting, but his cane was gently flickering.

"This person can't be the mastermind behind the scenes, right?"

Rowan was surprised in his heart, he didn't expect that he was just about to start an operation, and he happened to meet such a suspicious person.

He turned his head very cooperatively, then took two steps back, and stood in the aisle next to the middle-aged nobleman, looking at the fighting beasts running in the field.

The middle-aged nobleman didn't pay attention to him immediately, but was talking to another nobleman next to him.

From that conversation, Rowan discovered that the middle-aged nobleman's surname was Frank, an earl!

And the object of Count Frank's condescending is Duke Nicholas!

In Fernandi, except for foreign nobles, the titles of the local people are basically inherited from ancient times, and with the decline and disappearance of the nobles, Fernandi's local nobles will naturally become fewer and fewer.

Many of the new nobles that came out later were actually awarded by the upper-class nobles, and in essence, the three titles of "duke, marquis, and earl" at the top were not awarded.

Among these many nobles, the duke is the least!

In today's Fernandi, there are only three local dukes left, and one of them is Duke Nicholas, the head of the Nicholas family!

It's a pity that this Duke Nicholas is the father of Nicholas Zhao Liu.

"It always feels like I'm going to fall into a cave if I'm not careful."

Thinking of his bad relationship with Nicholas Zhao Liu, Rowan felt melancholy in his heart, and he paid a little attention to his surroundings again, and found that there were many people sitting in the front and back rows who were obviously guards.

The Earl and the Duke travel together, so of course it takes a lot of effort to protect!

Although the city that never sleeps is forbidden to fight in terms of rules, it is difficult to guarantee that there will not be people who are not afraid of sacrifice to snipe, so it is still necessary for the guards to exist.

After a while, Count Frank finally finished talking to Duke Nicholas, and he said in a low voice: "You are here, is the mission completed?" ”

Listening to him ask, Rowan suddenly understood in his heart that his luck could be so strong, just looking for a random casino, he really met the mastermind behind the scenes!

You are a dignified earl, you can't be a little minion, right?

It's just that your assassin is fighting life and death outside, and you actually gamble on beasts with the duke in the casino, your heart is really big!

But in fact, this Count Frank doesn't want to either!

But how could the duke's offer be refused?

Before the turmoil, he was Count Frank of Fernandi after all, and it was necessary to maintain the relationship between the upper and lower levels.

And this Count Frank never imagined that he would be wiped out if he only assassinated a tavern owner with all his elites!

This is really not magical!

Rowan bent down and pretended to tie his shoes, even though he didn't have them, and whispered, "No., die." ”

"What?" Count Frank looked puzzled.

Then in the next moment, he only saw that the "Assassin Zephyr" suddenly stretched out his hand and touched the tips of his toes, and then he felt that the world was spinning, and the surrounding scenery suddenly changed, and he was already in an ancient castle!

"Watt! What's going on? Where did this person go? Why did it suddenly disappear? ”

After the commotion was slightly up, Rowan raised his head suddenly, as if he had just discovered the disappearance of Count Frank, and immediately screamed with the people around him!

Chaos and commotion arose with his scream, and the guards suddenly found that their protection object had disappeared inexplicably, and stood up one by one!

Some of them hurriedly shouted, while the other part immediately protected Lord Nicholas to ensure that Lord Duke would not disappear like the Earl.

Half a minute later, one of them, who was supposed to be the captain of the guard, violently released a magical beam of light into the sky and roared, "Blockade! Blockade! Lock down the entire Colosseum Casino and don't let any suspicious people escape from it! ”

……

In the chaos, Rowan's figure disappeared from the crowd.

The electronic elf blessed him with optical camouflage with a virtual projection, and he seemed to transform into a transparent person, slowly walking out of the Colosseum casino as if nothing had happened.

Those assassins were clearly an underground force cultivated by Count Frank, and even his bodyguards did not recognize the Zephyr in Rowan's disguise.

When Zephyr was put under suspicion, Rowan had already left.

And since this goal had been achieved in a completely unexpected way, there was no need for Rowan to stay in the casino any longer.

He began to pick up his pace, daring to slip out before the city that never sleeps was completely locked down.

By the time he walked out of the city that never sleeps, the sky had already brightened, and the rising sun had risen into the air, releasing a soft and bright glow.

He manifests himself in a no-man's alley, then summons Chopper, causing it to transform into a sky form.

In a moment, Chopper was carrying him up and running through the sky.

Relying on the virtual projection of the animatronics, they completely melt into the sky.

The entrance to the city that never sleeps is really far from East Street, and it didn't feel like it when I chased it last night, but now it seems so long when I return.

Finally, Rowan landed in the backyard of the tavern, only to find that the bodies of the assassins had already been disposed of!

"Is it the corpse collector?"

Rowan was a little puzzled, and in such a hurry, he left behind the bodies of the four assassins, which he basically forgot later, and only now did he remember it.

But when he looked closely, he found that the blood stains around him had also been cleaned, which made him think of another person.

"Obi did it."

He pushed open the door and asked Obi in the kitchen, and soon came up with the answer that it was indeed Obi who cleaned up.

"That's good!"

Then, Rowan took out a pen and paper and drew portraits of two people on the paper, one of them was a short old man, and the other was a beautiful dark-skinned dark elf.

After repeating his promise to the two men, Rowan left the portrait and turned into the misty world.

"Didn't sleep?" Rowan asked.

"Hmm." Qin Ying nodded.

"I'll take you out and let Xiao Qin Ying out." Rowan thought for a moment and said.

Soon after, Qin Ying's stand-in began to work on the counter, while she herself went back to her room to make up for sleep.

Rowan went into the kennel without hurrying, and the model of the castle was kept in the kennel, and when he came to the model, he looked down from above, and soon found Count Frank on the edge of the castle.

It's not easy to catch an earl.

But the rules of the city that never sleeps will make people lax, and the earl mistook Rowan for his own person, so he was not prepared at all, so he was easily arrested.

After being sent into the castle, the Earl did not lose his composure, he carefully observed and searched carefully, and he quickly discovered the boundary of the castle.

He stood on the edge of the ancient castle, constantly casting magic, and bombarded the obstacle of the ancient castle violently, showing extraordinary magical strength!

After discovering that ordinary magic was ineffective, Count Frank took out a pebble-like soft crystal from his body, and then put it in his mouth, and a powerful and terrifying magic wave erupted from his body.

His magic emanated from his body, and behind it was a substance, which turned into a monster with the head of a sheep and a snake.

After sacrificing the monster, he began to chant an extremely lengthy incantation, and as he quickly chanted the incantation, the monster with the head of a sheep and a snake body raised its head and roared, and terrifying fluctuations of power began to gather into its mouth!

"If he keeps bombing, maybe he can really blast the castle!"

Luo Wen's heart sank, and he suddenly poked his hand into it from the outside, and a huge finger fell from the sky and stabbed the monster with the head of a sheep and a snake body fiercely!
