Chapter 6817 For Victory
Chapter 6817 For Victory
Just when Liu Bei and others were complaining at Fa Zheng's house about how perverted the new gambling house opened by Yuan and Liu in Chang'an was, the Yuan family's gambling house was in trouble of being invaded by some kind of extraterritorial demons.
Well, it's not that exaggerated. It's just that a group of Roman veterans also came to gamble, and they won every time, which made the Han veterans who came to play somewhat unhappy. However, in this kind of place where cheating is allowed, if you can't win, you really can't win. It's not a matter of luck or skill, but a real lack of ability.
"I lost." Yu Mang gave up on opening the cup before it was opened. 126 points out of six dice was already outrageous, but with the third-person perspective, he had seen that there was an extra dice on the opposite side, and it suddenly appeared when the dice were being shaken. Because Yu Mang saw it with his own eyes and didn't understand how there was suddenly an extra dice, Yu Mang accepted the defeat with conviction. There was really nothing he could do.
"You know you lost without opening the cup and taking a look?" Actaeon said to Yu Mang with a ferocious smile in stiff Chinese.
"There is an extra dice in your cup. I can't win at all." Yu Mang said helplessly. The old soldiers who were watching and waiting for the two gods to decide the winner were in an uproar when they heard this, because this was an open gambling with a group of gods surrounding them. This method of directly adding an extra dice was done without anyone present being able to see the process, which was very powerful.
"I did it very secretly, but you actually saw it." Actaeon lifted the cup, and the six dice in it broke evenly into six sides, and then there was an extra dice with six points facing up.
To be honest, this kind of cheating would definitely result in the loss of one's hands in other gambling houses, but here, not only would one's hands not be chopped off, a group of people would also admire Actaeon's technical prowess. Even though he was an alien demon, he was also a skilled alien demon!
"What a good trick. I was watching it the whole time and didn't notice when an extra dice was added." Queen Xiao, who was standing in the outer circle, was very moved when watching this scene. His skills, his gambling level, and his hard power were all at the forefront among this group of people, but he didn't even notice when Actaeon added an extra dice.
"Hmm, it turns out to be light and shadow." Bai Wang stared at the dice for a long time and finally determined that it was light and shadow. Although the texture was already fully maximized and even had a certain obstruction to the airflow, indicating that it was already a physical thing, but Bai Wang relied on his talent and was sure that this thing was not the real thing, but light and shadow controlled by Actaeon.
"Oh, it is indeed Light and Shadow, what a skill." After Bai Wang spoke, Yu Mang stared at the dice for a long time and finally confirmed that it was Light and Shadow. "But if you lose, you lose. Materialized Light and Shadow, you are from the Fifth Skylark Legion, right? Is your legion commander feeling better recently?"
"No, I'm from the Fourth Legion of the Lucky, an archer instructor of the Scythian branch, but I've never had good luck." Actaeon said with a smile, raising his hand slightly, and the dice that looked exactly like the real dice and could even be pinched in his hand just disappeared.
Actaeon, who had almost never won in gambling, took all the more than one hundred coins on the table into his arms and felt very satisfied. After all, the Han Dynasty was still the best. Gambling houses like the Han Dynasty were real gambling houses. Gambling houses like those in Rome were all crap!
"You are also an archer." Yu Mang looked at the man who was almost two meters tall and had a muscular body. He estimated that he weighed about 250 kilograms. His expression was extremely complicated. Why did he feel that compared with the opponent, he, a heavy archer, was a piece of cake?
"You too?" Actaeon asked with a smile. Having won a sum of money, Actaeon was in a very good mood. "Then we can have a discussion sometime."
Yu Mang nodded and graciously gave his position to the other veterans waiting on the side. He could not defeat Actaeon, and the new brother who came up would probably just be killed.
"Brother Zhang has met a worthy opponent, and it's hard to tell who will win. The people from Rome are very powerful." As soon as Yu Mang left the table, someone quietly ran over and spoke to him.
"Seventh level?" Yu Mang frowned.
"It's most likely yes. Both sides are playing Pai Gow. Brother Zhang said he is not sure of winning against Slavonis on the opposite side. The opponent's talent is most likely to be weakened, which will have a significant impact on him. However, the opponent is also having a hard time. Now both sides are gambling on luck, and their luck with cards is quite bad." Song Lin said to Yu Mang with a cautious look.
"The people coming from Rome are tough guys. It's embarrassing to lose too much. Let the manager of Yuan family go to Weiyang Palace to call a few people with strange talent mechanisms. If we continue like this, we really won't be able to maintain our position." Yu Mang said quickly as he looked at the friendly forces that were quickly defeated in the battle against Actaeon.
"Someone has been sent, but we have to wait a while." Song Lin said quickly.
At the same time, Yuan's dealer threw out a handful of copper coins, and a group of Han and Roman veterans began to operate. Unlike the previous situation where there was a group of people who were just having fun, this time even the people who were just having fun were under great pressure. More than a dozen Roman high-smelting experts came in and killed everyone. Now they were no longer playing games, but fighting for face. If this group of Romans really cleared out the place, they would have no face to continue playing.
So at this time, the people who were having fun would not act recklessly like before. Twelve or thirteen veterans stared at the two hundred and forty copper coins spinning in the sky, constructed shapes of themselves or their allies in their minds, and then raised their hands to act.
Vibius, who was from the Fifth Skylark Legion, raised his hand without thinking and fired a stun bomb at the copper coins spinning in the sky. An aurora as dazzling as the sun burst out from the middle of hundreds of copper coins, accompanied by a thunderous explosion.
As a veteran from the previous generation of the Fifth Skylark, he emphasizes the use of as many mechanisms as possible in the talent refining route, and also focuses on the mechanism when it comes to talent development.
His talents do not have any quality blessing, they are all mechanisms, linkage, five senses sharing, air flow operation, light and shadow operation, sound wave vibration, illusion condensation, the talent development is also the kind of bombshell, linkage and five senses separation, but you must admit it, as long as you don't get close to him, this guy's talent structure is simply invincible!
He raised his hand and fired a stun grenade. Half of the veterans who rushed forward were stunned. The rest were either tough guys or had special resistances, or knew in advance that Skylark's veterans were no good. Anyway, after one wave, half of them were eliminated.
The rest who continued to charge forward entered a brief state of linked five senses separation in the next moment. This talent was developed by Vibius based on the linked talent and the quality sharing talent, but his quality sharing talent was considered to have ruined his training, and the quality bonus was basically equal to 0. The sharing of the five senses was developed, but because this talent was based on the linkage and his own five senses, his five senses were separated, which would provide others with the state of five senses separation.
Theoretically speaking, this is a useless talent, but Vibius has a weird mechanism.
Vibius, a mechanical monster with no quality talent, fired a stun bomb, which failed to shock the opponent, but at least shocked himself, and then activated his own five senses, and the whole game was basically ruined.
Even a top veteran like Li Ge almost tripped and fell to the ground when he was suddenly stripped of his five senses by Vibius's telepathy. Fortunately, this level of restriction could not be maintained for long. After all, Vibius' basic qualities depended entirely on his strong body, and he could not effectively control his opponent. But this was a game of Guanpu, and what was at stake was the appearance of a more than two hundred coins thrown out.
In addition, because all the gamblers are veterans, the gambling logic directly becomes an outrageous game where you write the shape first, the dealer then throws the money, and then you wait for the money to land to see the shape.
Therefore, the key to winning this game is that the veteran must arrange the shape he wants before the money hits the ground. For example, if you want 120 heads and 120 tails, then you have to create it forcibly, and the more unusual the shape, the higher the odds. Generally speaking, if there are less than ten heads and the rest are all tails, the odds will be ten times higher.
This time, Vibius bet on 10 heads and 230 tails, while Li Ge bet on 1 tail and the rest were all heads. Anyway, the two guys were confronting each other.
Li Ge realized that something was wrong when he fell into the state of five senses being separated. He did not dare to hold back and attacked with all his strength. He used airflow control based on his intuition and bounced all the copper coins into the sky. Then he struggled hard to break free from the separation of the five senses and snatched back the sense of touch. Then, relying on his extraordinary reaction ability brought by his zero-time reaction and the sense of touch brought by the airflow control, he turned all the copper coins over to one reverse side and 239 heads in just a moment.
It was also at this moment that Li Ge completely broke free from his five senses and was able to see with his eyes. Li Ge was stunned for a moment. What appeared in the sky was not a copper plate with one reverse side and 239 positive sides, but 10 positive sides and 230 reverse sides, with a light and shadow map on the opposite side. Moreover, as these copper coins fell to the ground, the light and shadow map gradually turned into a real touch. This was the condensation of illusion.
Li Ge looked at this scene, without thinking, he kicked Vibius in the stomach at an unimaginable speed, kicking the opponent away. If I can't solve the illusion, I can't solve you either. Just like that, the copper coin shape that Li Ge needed landed successfully, and it didn't even have a bullet!
"Thank you, thank you." After the copper coin fell to the ground, Li Ge bowed his hands left and right, and smiled very proudly. What's the point of my instant reaction? How can I lose when playing this? The mechanism is weird, right? It relies on light and shadow, right? It relies on illusion, right? I'll kick you away!
When Vibius was helped up, he looked in the direction of Li Ge and nodded. He did his best. It was a sure win, with the stun bomb and the five senses separation, but the opponent still had the energy to operate. Moreover, every time Vibius broke free from the five senses separation, it was a help to Vibius. Theoretically speaking, the time when Vibius broke free from the five senses separation would definitely not be later than the opponent affected by the five senses separation.
As a result, after Li Ge broke free, he rushed over and kicked Vibius. Vibius didn't even have time to react. It was really too fast.
It was extremely fast in a straight line. There was nothing much to say. It was only a few meters away. If the guy on the opposite side who had no speed could react to it, as a member of the White Horse Volunteer Army, I would just break his legs.
"Brother Zhang lost. They were unlucky. Both of them had bad luck, but Slavonis' luck was slightly better than Brother Zhang. Now we have won one game, tied one game, and lost two games." When Li Ge was cheering, Empress Xiao held Li Ge and informed him, "The situation is not good."
"You didn't win?" Li Ge asked Queen Xiao in surprise.
"I thought the opponent was at the fifth level, but it turned out to be the fifth level with infinite changes. I was able to tie because of the rules, and the opponent was decent. If the opponent was a little more shameless, I would definitely lose. We cannot lose the fifth game no matter what." Xiao Hou said with a serious face.
"What's the bet for the fifth round?" Li Ge asked.
"Cricket fighting." Queen Xiao said with a dark face. Because the Romans won more, they let the Romans choose. As a result, a Roman who had been hanging around here for several years was very interested in cricket fighting and strongly requested a cricket fight. The old soldier from Rome didn't know what to think, so he followed this guy's wishes. Now the fifth round is a cricket fight.
"A lot of high-melting veterans have come from Rome, and they even have more sixth-level warriors than we have here now. Considering things like infinite transformation, fighting crickets..." Li Ge's face looked a little ugly. Compared to fighting cocks, fighting crickets are more difficult to control. Once the power is exerted too much, the cricket will explode. After all, the strength of the cricket is not enough for this group of people to mess around with.
"We can't do anything about it. Rome chose it. Although we can reject it, it means we can't afford to lose." Empress Xiao sighed and said, "Now we can only wait for help from Weiyang Palace. Otherwise, we are likely to lose. Rome may have three seventh-level smelters, two of whom are mechanical-oriented. If they control it together, we will definitely not be able to defeat them."
Although Zhang Liang is also at the seventh level, his talent structure is attack cancellation, accumulated rebound, idealistic pressure, super-speed recovery, will penetration, charge defense, and super speed. This structure is the kind of head-on confrontation. Although there are some melee mechanisms, if you use them to control crickets, they might explode in a few strokes. However, Zhang Liang does have an extremely powerful melee mechanism called Gundam...
It is to rely on the charge defense brought by the divine speed to accumulate the opponent's reaction force after colliding with the opponent, combined with the damage reduction brought by the attack cancellation, and the special effect of the stronger the impact force of the mind pressure and the more outrageous the self-weight, Zhang Liang will go all out and be like a subsonic steel hundred-ton king going down the mountain.
Generally speaking, any melee soldier will be killed by Zhang Liang's move. No matter whether they release the force or not, it is useless because they will be smashed to pieces the moment of contact.
Zhang Liang's seven-fold smelted terrifying basic qualities, coupled with his own specially mastered super-powerful skills, that is, the accumulation of strength, can theoretically allow him to smash a person to pieces when he hits him. Back then in the Ganges, many of the Kushans' top defensive elites were killed by Zhang Liang in this way.
By the way, this is also the reason why Zhang Liang fell into Zena's hands. Zena was really ordered by the Kushans to kill Zhang Liang, but Zhang Liang was really strong enough. After being tricked by Zena, he was able to run away. If it were any other veteran, he would most likely have died on the spot.
It can be said that Zhang Liang's mechanism is actually quite powerful, but if it is used to fight crickets, it really cannot be brought into full play. Not to mention going all out, it will explode if you use too much force.
Therefore, the Han Dynasty veterans at the gambling house are actually in a very awkward situation. The Roman veterans' configuration is really incredible. If they fight hard, the probability of losing is not low!
"A gambling house actually gathers so many elite veterans. This is really a grand occasion rarely seen even in Italy." Hasgart sat on a chair nearby, drinking tea and eating snacks brought by the gambling house, and said to several veterans around him who did not participate in the gambling but were learning combat skills.
"Hasgart, come and join the cricket fight later. This kind of gambling fight requires five people to participate. Given our current situation, we can only be sure if you join us." Elias called out to Hasgart, "There are too many veterans of the Han Dynasty. There are several sixth-level veterans in this gambling house alone. And just like Bedivere said, some of the sixth-level veterans are ridiculously strong."
"You start bragging about how strong the other party is before you even win. I'm watching here too." Hasgart felt a little crowded sitting on the widened chair. He held the gambling house's teacup as if he was holding a bottle cap. As the strongest of this batch of veterans from Rome, Hasgart was not afraid of Elias at all. He was even a little dissatisfied with Elias bringing veterans to gamble.
"Then do you think among our group, except the three of us, who can surely win against that old Han soldier named Queen Xiao?" Elias was not annoyed. He knew that the former centurion who came from the first auxiliary family was an upright person. He always led by example on the battlefield and was serious. Moreover, he would really fight if there was any trouble.
"There is a 50% chance that Tigidius or Nerva will win. For the others, the best outcome against that guy is to run away." Hasgart took off his coat and said slowly in the direction of Queen Xiao, "Among the six levels of smelting, he is already one of the top ones.
Rome has two seventh-level smelters, a fifth-level infinite transformation monster with compound skills, and a dozen sixth-level smelter veterans who can deal with various situations, plus a large number of fifth-level smelters. It is obvious that Rome is not here to ruin the show, but since they have come to participate in the competition, they will naturally show what they should show.
However, most of these six-fold smelting veterans who could deal with all kinds of situations could not defeat Queen Xiao. From a certain perspective, in this competition in the casino, Rome showed its strength and shocked the veterans of the Han Dynasty, but the performance of some veterans of the Han Dynasty also shocked Rome.
"It's hard to say. If Tigidius's talent structure can effectively bring out his idealism, then it's fine. If Nerva can drag out the outbreak period, I think he can definitely win. It's just hard to say. By the way, why don't you mention Dieter? She is the veteran with the highest winning rate now." Elias said with a somewhat teasing tone.
"Women shouldn't be soldiers." Hasgart shook his head and said, if a real fight broke out, Dieter would definitely be second only to the three of them, basically a super strong man at the level of sweeping the six levels of smelting, but Hasgart still had to say that women shouldn't be soldiers.
"You should say this to Her Highness Annia." Elias said jokingly.
"I said it, so I come to the Han Dynasty now." Hasgart said expressionlessly.
"Then I can only say that you deserve it." Elias said after a moment of silence. Even though there were many reasons why Annia became the commander of the Eighth Eagle Flag Legion, the fact that she could sit in this position was enough to explain many problems. You, a seventh-level smelter, were pointing fingers at this matter, and they just sent you to the Han Dynasty to participate in the competition because they thought you were a rare animal.
"I will not change my opinion on this matter, and I will even propose it in the Roman Senate." Hasgart had no intention of repenting at all.
"Okay, let's talk about it later. Come with us to fight crickets. The high-end gambling house on the Han side is really interesting. Let's go. I see all the people from the Han side are already here." Elias was helpless when he heard Hasgart's words. If Princess Anya wants to be the legion commander, then let her be it. If Dieter wants to be the centurion of the Eighth Legion, then let her be it. Why bother? Right? Life is about being happy!
"So you guys are the only ones coming from Weiyang Palace?" Empress Xiao looked at the devastated faces of Yang Tuo, Jiang Zhe, and He Zhen. It's not that these guys are weak. To be honest, each of them can fight Empress Xiao. The problem is that there are three seventh-level warriors on the opposite side. They are led by Zhang Liang and four sixth-level warriors operating Cricket Fighters against the three seventh-level warriors with two sixth-level warriors operating Grasshopper Fighters? Can they win?
"Don't worry, we won't lose. In cockfighting, it doesn't matter whether I'm there or not, because the rooster's body size, muscles and bones will not explode easily under your control. But crickets are different. Crickets have great requirements for strength. The tough guy opposite you looks like a power type. I specifically asked him about it before. The man called Hasgart is the former centurion of the First Auxiliary Legion, the best physique among Roman humans! Crickets and katydids will definitely not be able to withstand his strength." Yang Tuo chuckled, even a little sinister.
"Well, is he the one with the best physique among Roman humans?" Queen Xiao looked at Hasgart. She could feel his mighty aura with just a glance. But to say that this was the strongest, that was a bit bad. No matter how much she observed, she had not reached the level of refined internal energy leaving the body!
"He has also reached a state where he can break through but is dragging his weight, and his own weight is very exaggerated. I suspect there are other reasons. Otherwise, it should not reach more than 500 kilograms." Yang Tuo said cautiously, "But if we don't fight him and just fight the cricket, believe me, I am the most important assistant. Cell-level control will ensure that the cricket will not explode!"
