Chapter 143: High-Stakes Gambling, the Birth of a Billionaire!
"Eh? This kind of thing?"
Bell was completely shocked by Liam.
Liam was the idol he had always admired and pursued.
And now, Liam had directly piled all the chips in front of him!
This was a full ten million Valis worth of chips!
Seeing Liam's unreserved trust in him, Bell was moved beyond words.
Ten million Valis, no matter how you put it, was too wasteful to be used entirely for betting.
Just what kind of broad-mindedness did Liam have to dare to take out so many chips and let him bet!
Bell's admiration for Liam also became even stronger because of this.
But he immediately thought of Lady Freya back at the home base. To be gambling so heavily here behind his goddess's back was a bit too much.
But, the person who asked him to bet was his idol, Sword Soul Liam.
What to do? What to do? What to do?
On one side was his goddess, Lady Freya, and on the other was his admired idol, Sword Soul Liam.
Liam put his arm around the other's shoulder and led him directly to the roulette table.
"Bell, please help me this time. Don't worry, even if all ten million Valis are lost, it won't affect our Familia home base.
Because on this expedition, we had a very astonishing harvest."
After dealing with all the harvests except for the floor lord's, it should be over forty million Valis.
Because some materials sold relatively slowly, it would take a few days to entrust them to the exchange and the like to sell them slowly.
To make better use of the two pieces of metal condensed from the two-headed dragon's blood and spinal fluid, as well as the scales and other materials on its body.
Just forty million was completely insufficient. At the very least, one or two hundred million Valis were needed.
If it was to forge the highest level of a First-Grade armament, then it would cost a sky-high price in Valis!
Hearing Liam's so serious expression, Bell was completely defeated.
As long as I can really help Mr. Liam. To be honest, Bell really didn't want to lose money.
Oh, great gods, I beseech you here, please grant me good luck.
Bell prayed silently in his heart, then carefully placed the ten million Valis on a blank space.
Placing it here is safe. As long as it's not placed in the lined area, it should be safe.
Syr and Ryuu Lion followed. Then the two looked at each other. What was the situation now?
Liam didn't tell the two women about Bell's strong luck. There was no need at this stage.
"Okay, Mr. Liam. I can only say I will play seriously, but you must be prepared for me to lose everything."
Liam nodded, "It's okay, Bell. If it's you, I can afford it whether you win or lose."
At this time, the bunny girl behind the gambling table had a sweet smile on her face.
"Welcome, please place your bets wherever you like."
In front of Liam and the others was a rectangular gambling table. One side of the table had a corner hollowed out, where a circular turntable was placed.
In the turntable were areas composed of various colors and small grids. As long as a small ball was thrown into it, following inertia, after the turntable rotated, the small ball would randomly fall into various positions.
The rest of the area was covered with a tablecloth made of expensive material.
Then on the tablecloth were many grids with numbers and pictures.
Bell's forehead was sweating a little. It was his first time playing this kind of thing. Seeing this, he felt a little guilty.
"Excuse me, is it okay to just put the money on this tablecloth?"
Bell silently made up his mind in his heart. He must help Mr. Liam earn a lot of money!
Ryuu Lion explained from the side, "Yes, the odds will change depending on the betting method.
The red and black colors represent whether the number of the ball is odd or even, so the odds are two to one.
And if you only bet on a number, the highest odds are a full 36 to one."
That is to say, if Bell could win the bet.
Ten million Valis would instantly become three hundred and sixty million!
Syr also explained from the side, "You can bet on odd or even, or a column of numbers. It's completely fine to even bet on multiple areas."
"Shall we practice a bit first? This way you can get the hang of it faster."
Hearing Liam's words, Bell nodded. Then he placed three ten-thousand-Valis chips on the white area for odd numbers.
This was thirty thousand Valis! Even at The Hostess of Fertility restaurant, you could eat at least twenty meals!
Bell felt these chips were burning his hands!
But, Liam had placed all these chips in his hands!
Liam put his arm around Bell, "Compared to betting myself, I prefer to watch you bet."
Bell nodded.
The dealer, dressed as a bunny girl, after seeing that no one else was continuing to bet, directly threw the small ball towards the side of the spinning wheel.
Because the rotation speed of the turntable and the speed of the thrown ball were very fast, it was very difficult to cheat.
The turntable began to rotate at high speed.
While Liam's gaze was observing the ball, he was also observing the surrounding situation.
An ordinary person, no matter how good their vision was.
Once they started to concentrate, their field of vision would narrow, and their attention would be limited to a certain place.
And the characteristic of the Sword Soul class was to feel everything around, so as to advance towards the supreme path of swordsmanship.
Therefore, his field of vision would not be compressed due to concentration.
He wanted to take a good look at the surrounding situation. With his current dynamic vision, would anyone cheat?
Bell, Ryuu Lion, and Syr all focused their gazes on the wheel.
And Liam saw no sign of anyone tampering.
The wheel stopped spinning, and the small ball also stopped steadily in the number one area.
A smile appeared on Syr's face, "Mr. Bell did it, didn't he?"
"Did I win?"
Bell's face was a little red. It was good to win.
At the very least, he absolutely couldn't let Mr. Liam lose money, so he had to continue to win.
The dealer placed six chips in front of Bell.
In less than a minute, Bell had won a full thirty thousand Valis by betting!
Huge profit, too huge a profit.
"Bell, shall we try a million-chip bet this time?"
One million was Liam testing whether Bell's strong luck was reliable.
If he were to bet his entire fortune now, it would be as reckless as knowing he had a system-gifted resurrection coin and then committing suicide to confirm the effect of the resurrection coin.
Oh right, this Sword Soul template doesn't seem to have a resurrection coin reward, at least not yet.
Damn it!
Bell wiped the cold sweat from his head, then took out a full million Valis worth of chips.
He couldn't help but breathe heavily.
This was a whole million!
Ten one-hundred-thousand-Valis chips were pushed away by Bell.
"Um, one million chips, betting on the second horizontal column of six numbers, odds of six to one~"
The dealer looked around at the crowd, and after confirming that no one else was following the bet, she threw the small ball again.
"Hit!"
A shocked expression appeared on Ryuu Lion's face, and cold sweat also broke out on her forehead.
She was Lv4, and even she broke out in a cold sweat. This was enough to show how surprising this situation was!
The dealer's pupils contracted sharply, her fingers couldn't help but tighten. Then she placed a total of six million Valis worth of chips in front of Bell.
Now, in front of Bell, there were a full sixteen million and thirty thousand Valis worth of chips!
In less than two minutes, a profit of six million Valis!
The surrounding gamblers, after seeing the astonishing chips, also gathered around one by one.
Just now, this young fellow had won dozens of ten-thousand-Valis chips in one go!
The chips of the Grand Casino, one thousand, ten thousand, one hundred thousand, one million Valis chips, were all different colors.
The smallest denomination was one thousand Valis, which was already a day's income for a manual laborer.
This was to allow the gamblers to see at a glance which big shots were spending money like water.
Just how much money was being thrown out!
Bell's breathing became rapid, and his palms were constantly sweating.
He was already at a loss. Was this really his achievement from winning the bet?
Liam coughed, "Bell, bet six million, go for a twelve-to-one odds."
Still continuing to test the limit of Bell's strong luck.
"Okay!"
Bell had already given up thinking. No longer thinking about other things, he focused on betting. Using his intuition and sixth sense to judge where it was easiest to win.
"Six million chips, betting on the first horizontal column of three numbers. Twelve-to-one odds!"
When the wheel stopped, Bell had won again.
At this moment, the total value of the chips in front of Bell directly reached eighty-two million and thirty thousand!
A full eighty one-million-Valis chips, twenty ten-thousand-Valis chips, and three one-thousand-Valis chips.
Behind Liam and the others, more than a dozen gamblers had already gathered, and the number was still increasing.
Perhaps when Bell leveled up, this experience would also allow him to obtain an ability called Strong Luck?
There was no thought of jealousy. As long as he befriended someone like Bell, he would even risk his life to rescue his friends in the future.
So, for this kind of person.
Liam didn't mind giving the other party a hand appropriately.
Then let it be, Bell.
I will help you obtain the great feat called Strong Luck, and you, let me make a big profit.
Neither side would lose.
"My god, that's a one-million-Valis chip! That young man has dozens of them in front of him!
Am I dreaming?"
"Bell, bet everything this time, thirty-six-to-one odds."
Liam continued to give instructions. This time he was sure. Bell's strong luck was unreasonable.
Bell nodded. At this moment, his head was already a little dizzy, but out of trust for Liam, he still agreed.
"Bet on one spot, a single number, number 2, thirty-six-to-one odds!"
A terrified expression had already appeared on the bunny girl's face. She really couldn't believe it.
Why, in this game of probability, could someone's luck be so good?
Winning three times in a row was already a very exaggerated degree.
This time, the bunny girl dealer directly used all her strength and then threw the small ball out.
The small ball, in the high-speed rotating turntable, moved at an extremely exaggerated high speed.
And the door of the VIP room in the distance also opened with a bang at this time.
A white-haired man ran towards Liam with a panicked expression.
He had originally thought not to disturb Sword Soul Liam and let him play as he pleased.
Liam was just powerful and had the potential to become the strongest adventurer in this world.
But, this didn't mean the other party's gambling skills were high.
But who knew his friend's luck could be so exaggerated? No, this couldn't continue.
He had to bring Liam and his friends to the VIP room!
He saw at a glance the more than eighty million Valis worth of chips Bell had bet. At this moment, he felt his breathing quicken.
If he let him win, how much money would the casino lose!
"Won!"
The small ball once again landed in the number 2 area with extremely good luck.
That is to say, Bell had directly won twenty-nine billion, four hundred and thirty million and eighty thousand!
Plus Liam's previous ten million Valis principal, the chips in front of Bell had now reached twenty-nine billion, five hundred and thirty million and eighty thousand!
Nearly three thousand chips worth a million Valis each were directly piled up on the gambling table like a small mountain.
It even directly submerged part of the betting area on the tablecloth.
"Bell! Bell! Bell!"
"Strong Luck Bell! Strong Luck Bell! Strong Luck Bell!"
Some adventurers had already recognized Liam and Bell.
The number of gamblers behind Liam and the others had reached several dozen. At this moment, their faces were flushed, their bodies trembling, and a feeling of excitement ran through every pore of their bodies.
It was as if they were the ones who had just won over two point nine billion Valis.
Ryuu Lion's face was flushed with excitement. Bell was trembling with excitement. He did it! He really did it! He helped Mr. Liam earn a large amount of money!
He turned around in a panic at this time and looked at Liam. "Mr. Liam, is it enough? I don't dare to continue."
"Bell, you did very well. This is 2.954 billion Valis worth of chips. Of course, I suggest you come back with me.
We'll come and collect the money together later."
Out of caution and the idea of protecting Bell, he wanted to watch Bell return safely to the Familia home base.
Bell nodded. He also knew just how exaggerated the money he had just earned was, and at the same time, he nodded gratefully.
Liam, now, was also so excited that his palms were sweating.
It had been less than five minutes, but he had relied on Bell's strong luck to win nearly three billion Valis!
What a pleasure this was!
My brain is trembling!
Subarashii!
The white-haired butler, wearing a suit and a monocle, rushed down, only to see the other party stuffing billions of chips into a cart.
He felt a wave of dizziness. There were actually several thousand of these million-level chips being loaded into this cart!
Too exaggerated!
So exaggerated that it was hard to imagine!
"Respected Mr. Liam, and this little friend. Why don't we go to the VIP room to play? The operator, Cervantes, would very much like to meet you two."
Liam looked at Ryuu Lion, Syr, and then at Bell.
"Bell, shall we act together first?"
"No problem!"
Because of Liam, Bell had also directly earned nearly three hundred million Valis.
Even without this money, he would do his utmost to help Sword Soul Liam.
Subsequently, Liam led Bell and the others into the so-called VIP room.
Ryuu Lion, on the other hand, carefully pushed the nearly three billion Valis worth of chips.
These chips, even if one of them fell and couldn't be found, she would be heartbroken to the point of being unable to breathe.
A dwarven male with a beer belly looked at Liam and the others with a smile on his face.
He wore a suit and a tie. The well-tailored suit was pushed high by his sturdy beer belly.
