The three of them sat down in the booth. John picked up a deck of weather cards next to the table, looked at XB, and asked, "Do you want to join?"

XB was inexplicably nervous. Although he had always called himself the esports gambling king in the live broadcast room, he had never played the weather card game before. He swallowed and nodded, "I'll try."

John smiled and began to shuffle and deal the cards. "Wayne, if I remember correctly, you should be a very powerful transcendent, right?"

"Not bad, what's wrong?" Zhou Ning nodded, picked up the cup of Jinhan light beer, and took a sip.

"Then you have to help me think of a solution." John finished dealing the cards and said as he sorted the cards in his hand, "I remember I once told you that I encountered a ghost?"

"Did it?" Zhou Ning quickly recalled it, but found that he had no recollection. Without changing his expression, he asked noncommittally, "And then?"

"A month ago, I went back to my hometown and encountered this ghost that night. He was an elegant-looking elderly man wearing a judicial wig, and he sighed sadly from time to time. Later, when I saw the portrait hanging in my hometown, I realized that the ghost was actually my great-grandfather, Sean Fowler, who had served as the Lord Mayor of Braxton and the Mayor of South Wales."

Still terrified, John played cards while recounting the reason he and his family had returned. Ever since John encountered Sean Fowler's ghost that day, the servants who remained at the old house had been seeing him pacing outside the doorway with increasing frequency. Considering the severity of the situation, John and his family had no choice but to return to address it.

It sounded a bit like his own situation; perhaps the two were related. Zhou Ning pondered for a moment, then looked at John and said responsibly, "My advice to you is to seek out the Sun Guardians or the Earth Ring. They have many experts in mysticism and should be able to solve this problem." Perhaps because he grew up under the red flag, Zhou Ning's first thought when encountering many problems was to contact the authorities.

"I thought so too, but my father disagreed. He said to me at the time: Damn it, that's your great-grandfather! Do you want believers of the sun goddess to purify him?" John said vividly.

It seems to be true. The Ascetic Church would most likely purify ghosts. The Earth Ring, with its stricter rules, would probably do the same. If I were to do it myself, I'd probably just be feeding them bullets. Then John's father would definitely kill him. ... Zhou Ning thought for a moment and shook his head. "Unfortunately, I only use physical methods, and they're probably even more brutal. Perhaps you could try with the Church of the Goddess of Life? They should be a little more gentle."

John smiled bitterly and nodded: "This is what we do now. Forget it, let's not talk about this anymore. Let's continue playing cards, continue playing cards."

After more than ten minutes, XB's face turned pale. In just ten minutes, he lost most of his chips. John also began to look pale, his eyes flickered, and he began to regret why he had asked Wayne Stewell to play cards.

Next came another all-in hand. On the surface, XB had the biggest hand, with a blizzard of heavy snow + heavy rain of heavy rain. In fact, it was a blizzard of heavy snow with medium snow + heavy rain of heavy rain, a full house of 3+2. In order to make a comeback, XB bet all his money and waited with bated breath for Zhou Ning to turn over the cards.

"I will definitely not lose this time. If I lose, I will eat the computer!" XB said confidently in the live broadcast room.

But at this moment, a tall man with a scar on his chin came over to sit next to Zhou Ning, holding his own drink.

"Hey, handsome guy, are you here in South West County waiting for a miracle?" He raised his wine glass and turned to approach Zhou Ning.

XB: …

Isn’t this too brave?

He immediately looked at the tough guy with admiration.

Afterward, XB deliberately stepped back a bit, fearing he'd get splashed with blood. But he still didn't forget to hold onto his cards. That was his chance to make a comeback!

Zhou Ning raised his head calmly and looked at him coldly. Through his observation Haki, he could vaguely detect that the northern sailor and his companions were looking at this place.

"We've done research and know certain special locations. When a miracle of life occurs, we can accurately change from male to female. As long as you are willing to accompany me..."

First, let someone they don't know pick a fight with them, then wait for them to strike back, and then they all rush over to cause trouble... It's an old-fashioned tactic, and it's very typical of Northerners. They're flexible and adaptable. When they're at a disadvantage, they're both afraid of trouble and afraid to cause it. When they're at an advantage, they're fearless and will look for trouble even when there's nothing to do.

Zhou Ning covered his cards, picked up the glass, took a sip of beer, put it down, and without warning, reached out and grabbed the man's already sparse hair.

"boom!"

With a strong push, his head was pressed down on the table. Immediately, wood chips flew everywhere, blood spurted out of his nose, and even the cups and chips on the table jumped up due to the shock.

Then, Zhou Ning stood up, loosened his hand, gave him a gentle push, and watched him fall backwards to the ground.

The other drinkers dodged, and as Zhou Ning expected, some guards and the Northern sailors rushed towards him.

Sure enough... Zhou Ning smiled slightly, stood up, and greeted the Northern sailors opposite. Then, a silent wave swept towards the group of Northerners.

Because there was no deliberate control over the target of shock, wherever the domineering aura passed, the drinkers fainted on the ground and the guards were also stunned on the spot. However, the mental strength of those northerners was still good and they were only shocked for a short time.

At this moment, Zhou Ning's running figure did not stop. In a few steps, he rushed to the old acquaintance. He quietly pulled out the ebony gun and put the muzzle to his forehead. He smiled and said, "I heard you were looking for me?"

"I surrender." The Northern sailor felt a bitter taste in his mouth. He had been tricked once before in the Adventurer's Guild. Although he had been on guard this time, he still couldn't avoid it. So he fully demonstrated the tradition of the Northerners and raised his hands very simply.

"Your name? Your identity?"

"Rich Burke. A former pirate." Rich Burke smiled wryly. "I mean no harm. I simply thought you followed me to Southwest County, and I wanted to warn you. If possible, according to the prisoner treaty, I'm willing to exchange 1600 victars for the lives of myself and my companions, eight of us in total."

"3200 Victar, and you'll be free," Zhou Ning said calmly. He clearly remembered paying Rich Burke a hefty price of 3350 Victar for the lucky clover.

You cheated me so badly, and you still want to take my money?!

"Well... okay." Richie Burke subconsciously wanted to refuse because he felt bad about the huge sum of money, but the Northerners' instinct to avoid danger made him agree.

After one of Richie Burke's men dejectedly handed over 3200 Vectra in cash, Zhou Ning put away the gun, spun it lightly in his hand, and it disappeared from his palm. He raised his hat to Richie Burke and said, "You are free. You are welcome to come see me again next time."

There won't be a next time... Richie Burke watched the young man in a black coat and hat walk forward a few steps, then suddenly turned around and asked:

"I want to know what you want to do in Southwest County?"

"In order to find...can I not answer this question?" Richie Burke said with a wry smile.

"it's up to you."

Zhou Ning didn't hesitate and returned to his seat. He looked at the stunned John and the fanboy-like XB and pushed the chips back to them. "Let's go."

"Wayne, I didn't expect you to be so strong!" This was the second time John saw Zhou Ning take action. Compared to the last time, this time was enough to shock him for the entire year. He was instantly excited and hurriedly put his arm around Zhou Ning's shoulders, asking him all sorts of questions, "Do you think I have the talent to be a shooter?"

XB, still obsessed with the previous deck, secretly lifted up the hand Zhou Ning had previously covered on the table. He was stunned to see another straight flush! Is this the God of Gamblers?

……

On the other side, Richie Burke didn't feel relieved until Zhou Ning stopped looking at them, and hurriedly left the bar.

"It's so scary!" He sighed silently until he was far away from the bar.

"Should we enter Elsop Swamp next?" asked one of his men.

"Yes, of course. And we have to go in early so that others can't get there first." Rich Burke said firmly.
