CHAPTER 111: CHAPTER 46: MASSIVE KILLING ON ALL SIDES

On the second floor of Wanlong Gambling House, Qi had just subdued a troublesome drunken gambler and was following several members of the Wanlong Guard Team down the stairs.

They had just reached the staircase when a burst of clamor erupted.

"Someone is causing trouble!" Having spent several months at Wanlong Gambling House, Qi, already familiar with any disturbances at the gambling house, exchanged glances with a few of the gamblers.

Hurrying forward, they saw the bustling first floor of the gambling house was now deserted around the gambling tables.

In the very center of the first floor, around one gambling table, a crowd was gathering, continuously emitting cheers and applause.

"Qi, those two mages you brought along..." The people from Wanlong Gambling House saw Qi as if they saw a savior.

"What happened to them?" Qi’s heart tightened. Master Mei Li had said that the three members of Magic Potion Group Thirteen were as one; hopefully, nothing bad had happened to the two of them just now.

"Where did you find these people? That one in the gray robe, he’s too impressive; Wang Laosan has already been forced to pass the bank for thirteen rounds, and the gambling house has already lost over ten thousand gold coins," the people of Wanlong Gambling House only wished Qi could quickly take that plague away.

"Lost? Where did they get the money?" Qi couldn’t believe that someone like Gu Feng would have money to gamble at a place like Wanlong Gambling House; even if they sold Gu Feng, it wouldn’t amount to the fraction of over ten thousand gold coins.

"It was credited under your name," the reply from Wanlong Gambling House people made Qi stiffen.

Yun Sheng!

Without guessing, Qi knew who the culprit was.

For the first time in his life, a surge of fury shot up from his feet—it was that darn Yun Sheng.

Qi was enveloped by a layer of evil Qi, frightening the nearby gamblers and gambling house people to swiftly take their leave.

With a whoosh, the crowd scattered.

The scene at the gambling table in front had suddenly become clear.

At the gambling table, Yun Sheng had already switched to another stool, stepping on it, with a mountain of chips piled high in front of her.

The short and chubby figure of Gu Feng was completely drowned out, only his head was visible.

Losing money from the gambling house was still a minor issue, the key was that the gamblers around had also lost a lot; in one fell swoop, Yun Sheng and her party had already won over thirty thousand gold coins.

Their hand... Qi and the group of guards behind him all inhaled sharply.

Yun Sheng was rolling dice, but among the hundreds of eyes present, not a single person could see how her hand moved.

In her hand, there remained only a streak of white shadow.

No one could clearly see how the bowl was shaken, let alone hear the sound of the dice.

Old gamblers all knew that dice are the simplest gambling tool; to win, the dealer needs to rely on a pair of ears and a pair of hands.

The speed of Yun Sheng’s hands was astonishing, to the point that even the experienced gamblers present couldn’t make out whether it was a high or low roll.

"Betting ends, hands off," beneath Yun Sheng’s cloak shone a pair of bright, glittering eyes, one could imagine that her mouth was already full of smiles at this moment.

Lost again.

Out of thirty thousand gold coins, quickly an additional three thousand or more coins flowed like water.

"No more playing, no more playing," Yun Sheng also noticed Qi standing not far away, as well as the people in the gambling house looking as if they had just lost their dear mothers.

Yun Sheng was not a gambler; she won money through her Yan Ling’s Hand and Shennong’s Eyes; over thirty thousand gold coins were enough for her to cover the upcoming Gamble Stone Feast, and enough to avoid being put on the blacklist of Wanlong Gambling House by quitting while ahead.

Seeing that Yun Sheng stopped playing, the people of Wanlong Gambling House breathed a deep sigh of relief; they hastily exchanged the chips won by Yun Sheng and the others into money.

"Esteemed guest, this totals thirty-three thousand five hundred gold coins; would you like to exchange them for gold coins or a Wuji Card?" The people of the gambling house were truly convinced by Yun Sheng now.

The identity of a Mage might be respected, but in front of these desperate gamblers, it is merely a manifestation of strength; however, a Mage skilled in gambling is truly remarkable.

In their eyes, Yun Sheng’s status undoubtedly made a giant leap, suddenly placing her even higher than Qi, a formidable Mage.

The Wuji Card is a currency card jointly issued by the five most powerful nations on the Wuji Continent, with the silver coin as the base unit. Depending on the value of the card, there is the Wuji Gold Card and the Wuji Purple Gold Card, along with a legendary Wuji Black Card.

Having these cards allows free currency exchange at any major city bank, making them convenient means of payment across the continent.

What Wanlong Bank offers is the Wuji Gold Card with a starting deposit of ten thousand gold coins, turning Yun Sheng into a small wealthy woman with thirty thousand gold coins in no time.

"Withdraw over three thousand gold coins, with one hundred gold going back to the casino. Then convert thirty thousand gold coins into three Wuji Gold Cards, registered under our three names," Yun Sheng decisively instructed, including Gu Feng and Qi in her plan.

They had a share too?

Gu Feng and Qi were stunned.

"Since Qi provided the capital, and Gu Feng and I won together, we share both troubles and fortune; we are a team," continued Yun Sheng, then she wrapped up the two thousand nine hundred gold coins she got, and tossed them to Gu Feng, who was still bewildered nearby, and also gave a gold coin to the person from the gambling house who had helped with the exchange.

Yun Sheng’s actions greatly endeared her to the people at the gambling house; being able to maintain such restraint in front of massive gambling was even more impressive.

As for Qi, after hearing Yun Sheng’s words, a complex and indescribable feeling surged through his heart that had been cold for a long time.

Sharing fortune and facing adversity together, they are a team.

They are comrades...

"It’s about time; the gambling for stones banquet should begin. Qi, you lead the way. The remaining two thousand plus hundred gold coins will serve as the fund for the gambling for stones banquet," Yun Sheng expressed her interest in the event.

Gu Feng’s eyes reddened, unlike usual, he didn’t reject back and forth, gradually, he started to treat Yun Sheng as his kin.

Although he hadn’t been with Yun Sheng for long, he understood her temperament well; she was straightforward, and if they didn’t accept, it would upset her.

Qi also fell silent for a moment, and after notifying the gambling house staff, they headed towards the fourth floor of the Wanlong Gambling House.

After passing the third floor, Yun Sheng realized that there was no staircase leading to the fourth floor at the end of the third floor.

At the end of the staircase, there was a Magic Array.

The attribute of the Magic Array is distinguished by the color of the Magic Array.

The Four Natural Attributes, red, green, blue, yellow.

However, the Magic Array at the Wanlong Gambling House didn’t belong to the Four Natural Attribute Magics; it was grey in color.

Grey, which belongs to the Space-Time Attribute in the Secondary Magic Attribute.

As they approached, the Magic Array fluctuated magically, and a medium-sized Magic Griffin emerged from within the Magic Array.

"It’s a Magic Array Guardian Beast," Gu Feng whispered, having heard that skilled Mages can use Magic Elements to mimic forms.

The griffin was taller than half a person; though it was a magical mimic, it looked lifelike, each feather distinct, which in reality were just illusions created by Magic Elements.

It sharply scrutinized them all around.

Qi reminded, "Wear your Magic Badges."

Without Magic Badges, Warrior Badges, or Summoner Rings, they would not be able to enter this Space-Time Magic Array, which only special guests could access.

Only then did Yun Sheng and Gu Feng realize that to enter the fourth floor of the Wanlong Gambling House, they had to rely on this Space-Time Magic Array in front of them.

Both experiencing the Space-Time Magic Array for the first time, they couldn’t help feeling a bit nervous.
