Chapter 258: The Banquet of the Nobles
Cotrev and Cotillard held hands, and without looking at Albert, who was tumbling everywhere underground, walked out of the door, and finally led the door up by the way.
Albert, covered in blood, was left to struggle on the ground.
“…… Save...... Life...... Save...... Destiny ......"
Helplessly, the biggest pain in the world, Albert's voice couldn't be smaller, and the voice couldn't reach the door at all.
With difficulty and pain, he stretched out a hand and struggled to climb on the ground.
The distance of only a few meters from the gate was no less than climbing an amazing mountain in his heart.
Seeing that he had finally climbed to the door, a wave of hope rose in Albert's heart.
As long as the door is opened, his servants or maids will see him, and he will be saved.
Thinking about it, he put his hand on the door and pushed it up.
After a few pushes, his newly-raised hope was extinguished.
The door seemed to be being held against the outside by something.
Why?
Why do this to me?
Albert fainted with despair on his face.
The other side.
After walking through several casinos in a row, Gu Fan finally collected the hundreds of gold coins he had won.
Not to mention the abundance of these gold coins, at least the travel expenses and living expenses on the road, according to the highest specifications, can be maintained for a long time.
Walking on the street, Diana looked curiously at the money bag that Gu Fan put into her waist, "Brother Gray, is it so easy to make money from gambling?" ”
Gu Fan chuckled and explained, "Although gambling is easy to make money, it is easier to lose money, and the only thing that can always maintain a profit in the gambling game is the dealer who opens the gambling game, and the rest of the people are not only the problem of losing early and late, losing more and less." ”
"Then ......," Diana remembered the crowded crowd in those casinos, still a little puzzled, "why do so many people gamble when they know they will lose?" ”
"Because they all hope to get rich overnight by gambling...... If these people don't stop the loss in time, they will end up bankrupt. Gu Fan sighed with emotion.
"It's terrible...... Diana remembered the people she had just seen in the casino, most of them had red eyes and looked like crazy.
Although Gu Fan had never been to any casino in the Overworld, there were countless cases of bankruptcies due to gambling in the news and reports.
Coupled with the prevalence of various probability studies, the sunk cost applied to casinos, gamblers' thoughts, etc., all point out the essence of casinos.
As long as this thing is involved, it is likely to fall deeper and deeper.
And Gu Fan rarely touches things related to gambling, even if he used to play cards with friends, as long as he wins or loses money, Gu Fan is also insensitive to him.
At this moment, a whisper on the side of the road came into Gu Fan's ears.
Gu Fan turned his head and found that the pedestrians on both sides were looking at them cautiously, with curiosity, fear, and even disdain in their eyes.
"Is that the ultimate winner of the Duke's family skill fight today? It doesn't look great. ”
"Shut up, do you want to die? They can crush you with a single finger. ”
"Not amazing? If you go up and try it, I'm afraid you won't even be able to catch a move. ””
"What if I can't catch it, but I heard that if His Highness's team hadn't suddenly withdrawn from the competition, they wouldn't have had a chance to win at all."
“……”
Gu Fan looked at the dissatisfied voice in the crowd.
I saw a man staring at Dillon and Diana with an unkind face, and from time to time some disgruntled words came out of his mouth.
When the man saw Gu Fan's sudden gaze, he immediately turned his head in a panic and didn't dare to speak again.
Although Gu Fan didn't say anything tithing from beginning to end, his expression was full of gentleness.
But the man didn't think so, he suspected that his whispering might be heard, and he avoided his head as a thief.
After all, although he was a little dissatisfied, the Second Highness's team was victorious, but it was only limited to talking in private, otherwise he would be targeted, even a servant of the Second Highness would be able to make him take off a layer of skin.
Seeing this, Gu Fan didn't pay attention to it anymore.
It's not uncommon for people like this kind of sincerity to be quick to speak.
If it wasn't necessary, Gu Fan didn't bother to pay attention to it, it was just a waste of time.
Night.
A grand aristocratic banquet was held in the castle of the Duke of Etro, and Gu Fan, Dillon, and Diana were invited to the banquet together.
During this banquet, Dillon finally lifted the armor covering his whole body, and put on a strange and indifferent face, but even so, those who had never seen Dillon's true face recognized him at a glance.
After all, it was no joke to be close to two meters three tall, and a person of this height was extremely rare even in Bifalciu City, let alone qualified to be invited to this aristocratic banquet.
Of course, the main thing is that Diana, who is standing next to Dillon and talking, reveals his identity.
That beautiful blue hair, even in this banquet, is extremely eye-catching.
For these two people who have had wonderful operations in the past few days, many nobles around have stepped forward to make friends.
At the banquet, several aristocratic girls who were bored were attracted by the figures beside Dillon and Diana at the moment.
"Who's that man next to Master Dillon?"
"How can there be such a perfect man? It's so handsome, I decided, I Lilith won't marry him in the future. ”
"Come on, this is already your first candidate who doesn't marry him, you marry so much!"
"I'm blind to the front, no, this is my true prince."
"Huh!"
"Seriously, do any of you know his identity?"
"I've heard his name from my father, it seems to be Gray, and he has the skills of the chief witch doctor of our principality."
"Wow, handsome and capable, no, I'm going to decide this person, don't rob me."
"It's shameless, it's obvious that I fell in love with it first."
Several aristocratic girls refused to give in to each other, and they all wanted to be the first to contact Gu Fan, but no one competed with anyone, and decided to step forward together.
"Let's go up together, whoever Lord Gray contacts first, whoever stays, and the rest of the people will retreat on their own, how about it?"
"I agree." Several aristocratic girls were very confident in themselves.
"Mistress Gray must like a petite woman like me, so don't waste your efforts."
"No, no, Lord Gray should like my type."
Several people played with each other, patted the dust that did not exist on the dress, and walked towards Gu Fan elegantly.
But a few figures suddenly flashed next to them, and their targets were surrounded.
It was a couple of aristocratic young women dressed in fancy clothes.
"Damn, I was preempted." The aristocratic maidens looked ahead with hatred.
