Genshin Impact: The Road to Reversal
Chapter 225: Extra, Underground Casino
"This place looks like a department store. Could he be here to buy goods?" Karen asked.
After hearing her opinion, Mo Yan folded his hands and said disdainfully, "How is that possible? What's going on? Let's go in and take a look and we'll know."
As they talked, the two of them walked into the store.
The shop was bustling with people, overflowing with merchandise. Kuang Dao walked around the shop and then approached a seemingly ordinary shelf. He gave it a gentle push, and the shelf moved slowly, revealing a hidden entrance.
Mo Yan and Kailin exchanged a glance, their hearts filled with confusion and curiosity. They cautiously followed Kuang Dao into the basement. The basement was dimly lit and filled with a pungent smell of cigarette smoke. When the lights came back on, the sight made them both stare wide-eyed.
Rows of modern slot machines are placed in the center, with colorful lights flashing on the machines, emitting an attractive glow. There are several gamblers sitting in front of each machine, staring at the screen intently and constantly pressing buttons. The machines make simulated sounds of coins falling from time to time, as if tempting people to continue investing.
Next to it are several large roulette tables. The roulette wheels look particularly dazzling under the light. The people around the tables stare at the jumping ball on the roulette wheels with nervous and excited expressions. They hold the chips tightly in their hands and constantly adjust their betting areas as the ball turns.
There is an electronic poker area not far away. Various combinations of poker cards are displayed on a huge electronic screen. Gamblers sit on high stools and control their own card games through electronic devices. Various game rules and odds are also displayed on the small screen next to them. Some gamblers look at the screen while quickly entering commands on the small keyboard, trying to win with their own strategies.
Indeed, this was a massive underground casino. Its lavish decor and advanced facilities were beyond Mo Yan and Kailin's imagination. The air was thick with the scent of money and the thrill of gambling. They watched in disbelief, never imagining that beneath such a magnificent store lay such a secret world.
"Oh my God, there is such a building here..." Karen said in surprise.
"Yes, but why is he coming here alone?" Mo Yan lowered his head and thought.
"Hey, do you still remember the tavern in Akagi? Do you think this place, like that tavern, could be the contact base of the Fallen Angel Troupe?" Karin asked.
"It's really possible." Mo Yan nodded.
At this moment, Kuang Dao walked into the crowd, but he did not do what the two people thought. He just came to a slot machine, took out his double-edged sword, and slashed at the machine with one knife.
The man at the slot machine was engrossed in his gaming, completely unprepared for such a sudden incident. The mad knife's blade instantly split the slot machine in two, sending sparks flying and a piercing alarm blaring. The surrounding gamblers were terrified by this sudden scene, screaming and running in all directions.
The casino staff reacted immediately, and several thug-like men quickly surrounded Kuang Dao. One of them, a burly man with a face full of flesh, roared, "Are you here to mess things up? You're tired of living!"
Kuang Dao showed no fear. He brandished his double blades, his eyes filled with anger: "This kind of place that harms people shouldn't exist!"
Just as the thugs were about to approach Kuang Dao, the lights in the casino suddenly dimmed, and a dark shadow flashed by. When the lights came back on, Kuang Dao found himself surrounded by a group of people in black clothes. These people were agile and had cold eyes. It was obvious that they were not ordinary thugs.
He tried to resist, stabbing at the nearest black-clad man, but two fists were no match for four hands. One of the black-clad men easily dodged and then kicked Kuang Dao's wrist. Kuang Dao felt a sharp pain in his wrist, and his double blades almost fell out of his hand. Seeing this, the other black-clad men rushed forward, coordinating tacitly, some attacking Kuang Dao's lower body, while others focused on his upper body.
Seeing this scene, the two people hiding on the side were stunned.
"No, this guy came here alone. Could it be that he just wants to mess things up?" Karen was stunned.
At this moment, Mo Yan suddenly remembered something and showed an expression of sudden enlightenment.
"I remember now, isn't the face drawn on the wanted poster Kuang Dao?"
"Ah? Are you saying this guy is the same kid on the wanted poster?" Karen asked in surprise.
"That's right. The portrait on the wanted poster was taken six years ago. Kaio has grown up now, so his appearance must be different from before. Plus, Tianlang said that the elemental power used by the child is wind..."
Before he could finish his words, Kuang Dao was completely defeated by the thugs. The surroundings were full of "debris" and there was no place to stand. It was difficult for him to show his fighting skills. In addition, the surroundings were dim and cramped...
"This is really terrible." Kuang Dao smiled bitterly, as if complaining about the injustice of God towards him.
He was rounded up by thugs and eventually captured.
At this time, a middle-aged man in a gorgeous brocade robe walked out from the shadows.
His clothes were embroidered with exquisite gold patterns. He had a cruel sneer on his face and pinched Kuang Dao's chin and said, "Good boy, you dare to cause trouble in my territory, you must be very brave!"
Kuang Dao gritted his teeth and roared, "Bah, you scum! If it weren't for guys like you, how could my family be destroyed and have come to this point today!"
"Oh, you're quite arrogant." The man raised his eyebrows and increased the strength of his hands. Kuang Dao's chin was pinched so hard that it hurt, but he still glared at the other party stubbornly.
"You said 'we' ruined your family, didn't you? Okay, then let me explain. Who in this world doesn't want to get rich? If people weren't obsessed with getting rich, why would they come to me? There are so many ways to make money in the world. I'm just providing them with a small opportunity. The rest is entirely up to them. What does it have to do with me?"
Upon hearing this, Kuang Dao's eyes were filled with rage. "You're still quibbling! If you hadn't opened this casino and used all sorts of tricks to lure people into gambling, how could so many people have lost their fortunes?"
"That's their own lack of awareness, don't blame me." The middle-aged man sneered and turned around. "Enough of the gossip, send him on his way."
"Yes!"
The thug was holding a dagger and was about to send Kuang Dao on his way when suddenly a burst of gunfire was heard.
Bah!
The moment the gunshot rang out, the dagger in the man's hand instantly fell to the ground. At this time, Kailin brought Mo Yan into the crowd.
"Don't move, or I can't guarantee I won't accidentally fire!"
