Chapter 53: Gambling and Fighting
"Hey, bearded buck, are you interested in taking a gamble, how about 1,000 gold?"
"Okay, but it's not interesting for the two of us, and you won't be able to scrape together a glass of wine if you win." The bearded man turned to the side and shouted, "Hey, good boys, are you interested in gambling with your bearded uncle?"
"Okay, bearded uncle, but, how do you bet?" Helles was always the one who was the most out of the way, as if nothing had ever happened to him. Helles has already made up, and if the rest of the people don't move, it will be a loss of face, and no one dares to let Uncle Beard ruin his fun.
"The gambling method is simple, that is, if you think the old one can win, you will hand over the gold coins to your bearded uncle, and if you are confident in Xiaonuo, then you can hand over the gold coins to him, the odds are one to one, if you win, that is, you can get back one more principal. The bearded uncle patiently explained. Delin felt like an uncle abducting a child.
"I love you so much!Uncle!This is a green gold coin card, I can win by buying the Duke," Helles quickly drew out two green cards and handed the other one into Lille's hand, "Uncle Lille, I will buy this one for His Highness Breno to win!"
Seeing Hellers's approach, everyone's eyes lit up, so that they wouldn't lose at all! There was no need to think about who was strong and who was weak, and they were just struggling with this.
Uncle Bearded has just made a mistake, and now Uncle Beard has corrected it, and everyone can only bet on one of them. Hey, Helles, you'll have to pick one and take it, and to make up for my mistake, I can give you a suggestion, the Duke has a better chance of winning. As soon as the bearded man saw that something was wrong, he immediately changed his words.
"That's not going to work, Uncle Beard, you should pay for your mistakes, but it's impossible to get me back my bet, Helles has never been in the habit of giving up halfway at the table, unless you throw in now, I can bet again, but then I'll have to get my double gold back. Helles shook his head resolutely. He was so active just now, and that's the idea to play.
"It's... Halleys, can you ...... "Uncle Beard apparently has a special love for gold coins, and wants to come up with another way to remedy it.
"Oh, do you see? Bearded Buck wants to play tricks on a child!" said Lille with a sudden exaggeration.
"Hmph, Lille, don't talk nonsense, Uncle Beard never cheats. Well, Halleys, we accept your gold! But then you won't get anything, no matter which side wins. Buck continued to persuade Helles.
"But Uncle Beard, so that I don't lose, at the table, not losing all means there is still all the possibilities, if there is a new idea, I will continue to raise. Helles said very seriously.
"What a good view!" Lille praised.
"Hey, where are your coins?" the bearded man looked at the rest of the men
"I have 10,000 gold coins to bet on His Highness Brenaud to win. ”
"I also bet on His Highness Brenaud, 10,000 gold coins. ”
"Although I believe in His Highness's strength, I think the Duke is even more unfathomable, 10,000 gold coins!"
"I'm 10,000 gold coins, Uncle Beard, you can't lie to me!" Delin walked up to Buck, handed a gold coin card to Buck, and then suddenly covered his stomach, his expression was painful, and he said with difficulty, "Everyone, I'm really sorry, I have a personal matter that needs to be dealt with urgently." Then he ran to the castle next to him without looking back.
When everyone saw it, they shook their heads.
"What a person without aristocratic qualities, just ate so much. Milanger muttered quietly.
As soon as Delin ran into the castle, his symptoms healed, and he walked down the aisle and stuck his head out of the ground, of course he was not looking for something, but for someone. Suddenly, he saw a figure in a maid's clothes walking through the corridor, and Delin immediately chased after him.
"Wait a minute, can I ask you something?" Delin ran in front of her and stopped her.
"Huh?" the maid's eyes rolled with some confusion, "You... What do you want to ask?" asked the maid timidly.
"I'd like to ask if Mr. Lille and that bearded man often make bets?" Delin asked, then pulled out a green card, "Answer me a few questions, this one is yours." ”
"Yes, sir, they often bet when they are bored. When the maid saw the gold coin card, her eyes immediately lit up.
"So who usually wins?" Delin continued.
"Uncle Buck the Bearded has never won. The maid said earnestly, with the appearance of gold coins in her eyes.
"Well, and one last question, where is the bathroom?" Delin's last question seemed abrupt.
However, for the sake of the face of the gold coin, the maid didn't care at all, and after answering the question, she took the green card and walked away with a smile.
"Uncle Beard, Uncle Beard! You have never won, this time Leia really wants to help you win Uncle Lille once! However, the person the younger brother is looking for is really rich! For a maid, a random shot is a green card! Haha, interesting!" Leia whispered softly, and set her eyes on the battle table.
It didn't take long for Delin to return. "Uncle Beard, I still want to raise, do you think it's okay?"
"Of course you can!" said to Delin's request, and the bearded man readily agreed.
"Okay! I'll add 200,000 gold coins, that's all the gold coins I've got on me!" Delin took out two blue cards and handed them to Buck. Seeing Delin quietly take out 200,000 gold coins, Buck was also a little moved, I didn't expect this kid to be so rich, but he had to take it, otherwise he would be dishonest, Uncle Beard never lost his trust in others, especially in the face of juniors.
The competition has actually begun, but it is still in the tentative stage. Brenaud made several quick raids to "kill" the Duke by surprise from different directions, but they were easily blocked by the Duke, and the Duke's swordsmanship and combat methods were like a stubborn rock, or a majestic mountain, let the wind and rain blow, I stood still. Brenaud wanted to win with cavalry, but the Duke was the one who resisted it with the same attitude. After each raid, Brenaud was repulsed, and several times the blade swept in front of the duke, passing by, looking so dangerous that the uninformed thought it was a life-and-death struggle, but such a crisis was always defused at the last moment. The duke's sword always blocked in the most exquisite place, containing the opponent's attack and follow-up force, and even being able to strike back.
Delin and the others were watching carefully, but his perception was much sharper, and he saw the details more clearly, and he noticed that the Duke actually had spare strength every time he counterattacked, just trying to force the other party back. Compared to the others who were still worried about their gold coins, Delin didn't care about it at all. His full attention was on the fight. Although Breno's attack did not achieve any advantage, the battle between the two was indeed very exciting. Both sides have far more power than they do, and they are fighting in a way that doesn't waste as much power as possible. He also knew that the Duke was actually already controlling his strength at level 14, and the two were still competing in the skills and art of real combat. He knew why Brenaud insisted on attacking, because if he was on the defensive, he would become the target of the Duke and be broken by a single blow. During the attack, you can constantly change your position to reduce the possibility of being attacked.
The outcome of the battle was already predestined at the beginning, and all Brenaud had to do was hold on longer. By the tenth minute of the battle, Brenaud had exhausted his physical strength, and he used all his strength to deliver the final blow, the silver-gray fighting spirit condensed on the sword, and then slashed down at the Duke with all his strength!
The contest ended without incident, and the Duke continued to maintain his title of invincibility below the Holy Order. The bearded Buck also won, he and Lille jointly sat in the bank, and the one who lost more would be compensated by the other party, and the compensation was an anti-magic cloak, but he had to pay the price of 230,000 gold coins for it, I don't know if he made it or lost it, anyway, when Delin got back his 420,000 gold coins, his face was a little ugly.
"Uncle Bearded! Uncle Lille, long time no see!" Buck and Lille had barely walked up to the second floor when they heard a familiar voice calling out to them from behind.
"Leia?!" Lille said in surprise as he turned to look at the woman in front of him.
"It's that little girl, yes, it's nice to see you again, but you can't pull out your bearded uncle's beard again, you see how hard they have grown. Buck clutched his chin.
"Uncle Bearded, how can you?" said Leia coquettishly, "I did you a favor just now!"
"Help?!What are you doing?" Buck and Lille didn't know why.
"A guy just came to me and asked me who would win a bet between Uncle Lille and Uncle Beard, and I told him that Uncle Lille was going to win all the time. I'm sure he's going to raise with Uncle Beard again. So, Uncle Lille must be feeling sorry for one of his treasures. Leia said with a smile.
"Yes, my heart hurts! However, your bearded uncle's heart hurts even more, he lost 210,000 gold coins to that kid, which adds up to 230,000. I don't know the price of that cloak!" said Lille with a wry smile, but there was a bitterness in his smile.
"Ah?!That guy bet 210,000?!He's so rich?!" Leia was very surprised, she didn't expect Delin to dare to bet so much money because of his words. Of course, she wouldn't know that Delin had found other people, and he had already learned about the invincible "reputation" of Duke Raidon under the Holy Order. "But don't think so, Uncle Bearded, you've won Uncle Lille now, which is unprecedented before, and with this first time, maybe you'll be able to win Uncle Lille more often in the future. Leia's mind spun quickly, and she instantly found a reason to comfort him.
"yes, why didn't I think of that!" Burke patted his head and suddenly realized, "Leia, you are really uncle's pistachio." ”
"Of course, uncle, you only found out today!"
......
After the competition was completed, Delin and the others returned to the small courtyard arranged for themselves, the courtyard was not large, but there was a 50-square-meter lawn and 6 rooms, which was the largest of the five of them. Seeing Delin return, Jamiri flew into Delin's arms like a butterfly.
"Have you had lunch?" asked Delin, touching her head.
"Hmm. Jamiri nodded slightly, "They give us two servants and two maids, but they don't live here, and they don't need us to pay them." Jamiri said happily.
"How nice is that, you can have more time to meditate, isn't the bracelet you gave you last time very effective?" Delin asked with a smile.
"Well, after wearing them, I feel that my mental strength has recovered a lot faster. In this way, it won't be long before I can help the young master. Jamiri clenched her fists.
"Let's go, let's go back to our room for two days!" Delin picked up Jamiri and walked towards the room.
Jamili shyly buried her head in Delin's arms.
Huo Hailan looked at all this, as if she didn't see it, but went back to her room and took a bracelet and looked at it over and over again, the only thing her mother had left her.
