Pokémon: Master System.

"I, along with the God of Gamblers Stephen Chow, the Knight of Gamblers Chan Knife, and the God of Gamblers Ko Chun, are known as the Four Great Gambling Kings of the Underworld." Xia Yu said with a smile, "Today I'll show you that back then, Chan Knife could win 37 million with 20 dollars. With this 1 Fortune-Snatching coin and 10 chips, winning 999 dollars is no problem for me, Xia Yu."

Although she didn't quite understand Xia Yu's nonsensical words, Xiao Wanyu still smiled and encouraged him, "Okay, keep it up, Mr. Gambler."

This might be how a woman shows her love for you. No matter what you do, she will support and encourage you instead of coldly calling you childish or feeling ashamed.

The two laughed and walked one after the other towards the casino on the top floor of the cruise ship.

…………

The triennial gold rush has officially begun.

All the tourists who came to participate in the gold gambling game were gathered on the top deck of the cruise ship. The total number of participants was about two hundred, and each person carried an average of about five coins from the "Fortune-Seeking Spirit".

Xia Yu changed into a formal suit, wore a mask, and walked into the gambling hall on the top floor.

There were already quite a few people in the casino. Like Xia Yu, they were all wearing masks. The men were dressed in formal attire, and the women were dressed in evening gowns. In the very center of the casino, there was a custom-made glass display case.

Inside the glass display case was a special golden coin, radiating visible ghost-type energy, which instantly caught Xia Yu's attention.

【Golden Ghost Coin of the Wealth-Seeking Spirit】(Champion Level): Legend has it that in a very small number of wealthy individuals, their core energy condenses into a golden ghost coin after death. This golden ghost coin is formed from the condensation of a champion-level wealthy individual after death.

This can be used on Money-Gathering Spirits or Rich People. After use, it can greatly improve their aptitude. The lower the Money-Gathering Spirit's aptitude, the better the improvement effect; the higher the aptitude, the worse the improvement effect. It can improve them up to the Master level. It has no effect on Money-Gathering Spirits or Rich People with Master-level aptitude or higher.

Xia Yu's heart clenched. This item was as powerful as the Broken Judgment Jar. Although it could only be used on Sai Fuhao and Suichao Ling, its effect was simply too powerful.

Isn't that amazing?

Just as Xia Yu was immersed in the powerful effects of the Golden Ghost Coin, a voice suddenly came from beside him, interrupting his thoughts.

He turned his head and saw that the speaker was a foreign white man who was speaking broken Chinese to Xia Yu.

The golden pupils beneath the mask stared directly at Xia Yu. He was tall, and his long golden hair gleamed under the light.

“Seraphim is the most amazing Pokémon of all.” The white man looked at the golden ghost coin and said to himself, “It’s the only Pokémon that doesn’t have a shiny form, or you could say it’s a Pokémon whose shiny form is exactly the same as its normal form.”

"Because for a Pokémon like Cyclops to evolve from Spellweaver into Cyclops, it's already one in a million."

“Every Cyclops is a Pokémon that shines with golden light.”

"There are no Shiny Battle Rich Pokémon in the world, because every Battle Rich Pokémon is a Shiny Pokémon."

Chapter 370 Dice Section

"Welcome everyone to this Golden Gamble." Xiao Wanyu, wearing a golden mask, glittered under the lights in front of the main stage.

"I'm sure everyone has read the competition rules carefully before participating. It's 8 p.m. now. You have 6 hours to win as many Fortune Spirit coins as possible until 2 a.m. tomorrow. The twelve people with the most Fortune Spirit coins will participate in the next round."

"I hereby declare the gold betting game officially open."

As Xiao Wanyu's voice rang out, the gold gambling game officially began.

The entire gambling hall does not allow participants to use Pokémon; they can only win by relying on their own strength. At the same time, for the sake of fairness, the use of superpowers is also prohibited within the gambling hall.

The gambling hall was divided into four areas: the card area, the dice area, the mahjong area, and the free area.

The gambling equipment varies in each area. Each person can go to the area they are good at to participate in the gambling. They can also agree with others to go to the free area to play any kind of self-determined gambling game, such as rock-paper-scissors.

At the same time, free trading is allowed in the casino. If you want to leave, you can exchange your chips and Suocailing coins for cash at any time and leave.

Because Xia Yu had limited chips, he didn't rush to participate in the gambling. Instead, he chose to observe for a while and test the system's capabilities.

He walked around and found that the system's abilities were not restricted at all in this place. With the help of the system, Xia Yu was like someone with X-ray vision, making him an invincible weapon in the gambling hall.

After observing, Xia Yu finally walked into the dice area, ready to start his first game of gambling.

Compared to other areas, the dice area is undoubtedly the most suitable for Xia Yu.

Having the ability to see through things granted by the system allows him to easily guess whether a number is odd or even, big or small, and even the point value. Unlike in the card and mahjong areas, where sometimes even with the ability to see through things, he may not be able to win.

Xia Yu walked into the dice area and found that the gambling hall here was different from other gambling halls. There was no such thing as a banker here. There were only small gambling tables. If you wanted to play a game, you could just find a table, sit down, and gamble against your opponent.

Xia Yu didn't rush to find a seat. Instead, he deliberately wandered around the dice area with ten chips and a coin from the Money-Gathering Spirit in his hand. However, he just wandered around and watched other people's gambling tables, making a hesitant and anxious look.

At this moment, Xia Yu, who was looking nervous, had unknowingly become a fat sheep to be slaughtered in the eyes of many people.

It's important to know that being timid and hesitant, and being overly concerned with gains and losses, is a major taboo in gambling, and usually only newcomers exhibit this behavior.

Because Xia Yu's current appearance perfectly matches all the characteristics of a complete novice: naive, rich, lacking any skills, and with poor mental fortitude.

"Want to play a game?" Soon someone extended an invitation to Xia Yu. The speaker was a short man wearing a black mask, with a slightly hunched back, and he was older.

"Forget it..." Xia Yu's voice was timid, a stark contrast to his tall figure. "I'd rather not gamble anymore. I'll just exchange these chips... and the coins from the Money-Seeking Spirit... for money."

Hearing Xia Yu's plan to handle the chips and coins from the Money-Gathering Spirit in the safest way, the short man felt a pang of anxiety, but maintained a calm expression: "Selling them is the safest approach."

"But don't you want to take a gamble? You can bet on the smallest round, just one chip. If you win one round, you get one chip, and you can exchange it for an extra million. Whether it's guessing high or low, or odd or even, there's a 50/50 chance. If you guess right, it's a million." The short man's words carried a seductive tone: "A million, it'll be in your hands in the blink of an eye."

The short man's words, like the devil's whisper, lured Xia Yu into the abyss.

Countless people have been misled into embarking on a path of no return, ultimately leading to the destruction of their families, the separation of their spouses and children, and heavy debts.

Xia Yu swore he would never tolerate gambling or drugs, and he also loathed those who encouraged others to gamble.

If you are unkind, don't blame me for being unjust.

Seeing his prey take the bait, Xia Yu hesitated before nodding, "Then... let's take a gamble..."

"bring it on."

Seeing that Xia Yu had taken the bait, the short man sneered inwardly and sat down at the gambling table facing Xia Yu.

"How do we bet? High or low, odd or even? Will you roll the dice or will I?" The short man looked at Xia Yu and said, "To be fair, you decide."

Hearing the short man's words, Xia Yu sneered inwardly. Bringing up fairness in a gambling hall was undoubtedly the most ridiculous thing imaginable: "I'll... I'm not very good at it... You shake the dice, and I'll guess..."

“Alright.” The short man didn’t seem to mind. He raised the dice cup, exerted force with his wrist, and began to shake it evenly, producing a crisp and charming sound.

Meanwhile, a crowd had gathered around, watching the gambling match between a seasoned casino player and a complete novice.

The crisp sound of the dice in the dice cup, coupled with the huge stakes of millions, stimulated the nerves of Xia Yu and everyone around him, making everyone even more excited.

Humans always like to seek thrills; this is a physiological characteristic that is difficult to change.

This is why very few gamblers are able to successfully quit gambling.

"boom!"

With a muffled thud, the short man slammed the dice cup onto the gambling table, making a crisp sound.

"It's your turn. You can guess big or small, odd or even, it doesn't matter," the short man's voice rang out.

Xia Yu was already secretly using the system's ability to see the numbers on the dice through the dice pot.

Four, four, two, double, big.

Although he already knew the answer, Xia Yu still feigned nervousness and hesitation: "I... I'll bet on small, no... I'll bet on odd or even, I... I'll bet on even..."

"Have you thought it through?" Hearing that Xia Yu had actually guessed the answer correctly, the short man asked, "You must keep your bets in your hand. If you want to bet on big, place your bet on the even position on the table."

Hearing the short man's words, Xia Yu hesitated again, holding the chips in his hand and wavering between the four areas on the table: odd, even, big, and small. "Forget it, I'll bet on big or small. I...I bet...I bet on big."

Xia Yu hesitated for a long time before finally placing a chip on the big one.

The short man also took out a chip and placed it in front of him.

"I've bought it, now I'll open it."

Seeing that Xia Yu had chosen the correct answer, the short man made no move and then silently uncovered the dice cup.

"Four, four, two! Big!"

The short man knew exactly how many points he had thrown; he already knew Xia Yu would win this round, or rather, he had deliberately lost to Xia Yu. But he still feigned regret: "What a pity, just a little short. Good luck, wanna play another round?"

"Even if you lose, you'll break even; if you win, you'll get another million."

Hearing the short man's words, Xia Yu sneered inwardly. It seemed that the short man really intended to treat him like a fat sheep to be slaughtered, and really wanted to drag him into an abyss of no return.

Since that's the case, then don't blame yourself for being impolite.

"No, I'm not gambling anymore. One million is enough for me to live on for a long time. I'm not gambling anymore."

With an excited expression on his face, Xia Yu picked up the two chips on the table and turned to leave.

Fishing? Who doesn't know how to fish? My reputation as Xia Laoliu is well-deserved.

While the short man was luring Xia Yu step by step into the abyss, wasn't Xia Yu also leading him into the abyss?

When you gaze into the abyss, the abyss also gazes into you.

Only by letting this short man experience the feeling of a fat sheep slipping away can he be motivated to desperately try to win all of Xia Yu's chips in one go next time.

Chapter 371 The Red-Faced Monkey and the Ghost-Faced Old Man

Seeing Xia Yu pick up the chip he had won and prepare to leave, the short man felt a little anxious, but the more anxious he was, the less he could show it on his face.

"If you want to leave, of course you can. But don't you want to win a little more?" The short man tried to keep his tone calm as he looked at Xia Yu.

"No... no need."

Xia Yu continued to feign a timid demeanor, then actually picked up the chips he had won and stood up, without the slightest hint of reluctance.

Seeing that Xia Yu was really about to leave, the short man felt helpless but could only pretend to be nonchalant: "Congratulations, you've made a small fortune. See how easily a million came to you? You might need years or even decades to earn that outside."
