Chapter 47: The Magician's Results
"Actually, this process is quite simple, I walked directly to them after you left last night, and made a very tempting suggestion to them very sincerely. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biqugeγ infoβ
"What advice?" said Lolo curiously.
"Recognize me as a father. The magician understated.
β............β
Although he had a certain amount of mental preparation this time, but hearing this bizarre answer, the rookie brave man almost fell to the ground, "You just walked in front of people with a big grin and let people recognize you as a father directly? Don't tell me that they agreed like this, I don't think you have a second possibility except to provoke them by doing this." β
"Well, you're right, most of them were furious when I made this suggestion, and the Mr. Flint you just saw rushed out of the crowd and shook his fist to beat me, but fortunately there were some more sane fellows among his companions, and they all worked together to keep him down, otherwise you wouldn't have seen him in the camp this morning. Rob shrugged.
"Oh my God, you should be glad he didn't hit you, or I might have seen your corpse at the camp this morning. β
"Anyway, they were angry because of the Convention, but they couldn't really do anything to me, and they had nowhere to vent their anger, but the cruel facts proved that as long as I didn't get out of the camp, they couldn't do anything about me, so I made another suggestion to them. β
"Huh?!What's your other suggestion?"
"Fight me at the table. β
"You went to gamble with them last night?" Luo Luo was shocked, "Are you crazy, this kind of pure luck will only ruin you in the end, isn't your father disgusted because he was addicted to gambling and eventually lost everything?"
"No, you're mistaken, I never said I hated gambling, strictly speaking, I only hate people who have no chance of winning, but lack self-control, and let themselves be hopelessly addicted to it. The magician shook his head and took out a deck of cards from his arms, back up, and placed them on the table, "Poker is not just a game that can be won by luck alone, memory, mathematics and observation skills are the real keys to winning or losing, pick one from it." β
The girl was suspicious, and when she heard this, she pulled one out of the deck.
"King of hearts, right?"
"You, how do you know?" Lolo thought incredulous, "Wait, you're cheating, this card is actually full of kings of hearts, isn't it?" said the girl as she unfolded all the remaining cards, but unlike what she had imagined, it was just a very ordinary deck of cards, fifty-four cards, each different, arranged in a disorderly manner.
"Oh my God, how did you do that?"
"It's simple, I just made a note of where each card is in the pile. The expression on Rob's face when he said this was really bad, as if he was saying that he went out to buy a bottle of soy sauce, "So as long as I shuffle the cards, I know exactly what cards they have in their hands in every game, but they are not stupid enough to go home, and they should have realized something after losing four games, so they found a guy who everyone can trust to be responsible for shuffling the cards." β
"And what do you do?"
"Then play, those guys are basically the lowest level of gamblers, the victory or defeat is all by luck, get a good card will be happy, get a bad card will be sad, it is equivalent to exposing their hole cards are all exposed, and as the game progresses, more and more cards are placed on the table, the remaining cards are still unknown, but I can already calculate the probability of them getting each card, plus their rich expressions, it is easy to find a suitable strategy......"
"Wait, I've seen them gamble for money, and I don't think they're like you said, except for a few novices, most of them can control their facial expressions very well, and some even disguise themselves to confuse others. Lolo raised his doubts.
"No, not expressions, but rather small movements that they may not have noticed, but for example, my dear godson Flint, who rubs his nose a lot if he has a good hand, and some guys snort worse when they bluff, and these movements are actually out of their control. β
"It's really fake, it's too exaggerated. Luo Luo was skeptical, "How much money did you make last night?"
"I used the sword you gave me as collateral and finally earned a gold coin and a half, plus breakfast, oh yes, and by the way, I also recognized twenty godsons, and according to the bet, they will call me father every time they see me in the future. β
Luo Luo gasped, the only thing worth a little money on someone's body was the long sword, which was worth about one silver coin, and one gold coin was equal to forty-two silver coins, in other words, the magician had multiplied his assets sixty-eight times in one night, and the speed of making money was too terrifying.
In fact, Rob's real gain this night was even more terrible than this number, the pockets of the entire thirty-six adventurers were ransacked by him, in addition to the group of guys who had laughed at him before, and then there were some guys who believed that they had a good level of playing cards to challenge him with confidence, but they were all defeated in the face of the quasi-magister's frantic observation, mental arithmetic, and memory, and the panties were all lost.
Rob went on a killing spree at the tables that night, earning a full six gold coins, most of which he spent, and used the money to buy a gadget in the trading area. Of course, this deal was made in the secret of the rookie brave and before she woke up.
Lolo criticizes the boy for his actions last night, but is satisfied with the results of his actions, and the girl asks the magician to hand over the results of his battle.
Rob knew that it was useless to resist, so he honestly handed over his money bag.
Counted twice, confirmed that there were indeed sixty-eight silver coins inside, one is not a lot, the rookie brave man was satisfied with the acceptance of his arms, at this moment the smile on his face could not be hidden at all, by the way, it was more pleasing to the eye to look at the magician, patted someone's shoulder, "Your performance this time is very good, you can rest assured, I will also share your share of the harvest of this expedition as a reward." β
But as soon as he said this, Luo Luo regretted it a little, and began to feel sorry for the part of the money that he hadn't yet carried in his pocket, and quickly added, "I...... I'm talking about the part of the debt that has been deducted. β
"Oh. Rob replied indifferently, he himself was skeptical that the expedition team could find anything valuable on the first floor, not that the first floor was only in tatters, but it had been half a year since this dungeon was discovered in the endless sea of trees. Those places that are easier to explore on the first floor have long been touched, and if you want to turn over something good there, you can basically only rely on luck, and the remaining more dangerous places often require several teams to work together to explore, and the promise of the rookie brave sounds more like a blank check.
