Chapter 347 - 175: She is a Dissector! _1
"Squeak! Squeak! Squeak!!"
Next to Lord An, there was always a sinister-looking monster standing.
It looked like a monkey, humanoid in form, just a tad stronger than an adult male.
But its appearance was so bizarre that it could strike terror into anyone. It had six legs, but no arms.
Two of its legs were on the shoulders, two on the sides of the waist, and the last two below the abdomen.
When it stood, this creature would employ four legs, the remaining two were clutching its toe, and it ill-temperedly stared at the silhouettes of the people around.
When walking, it would use two legs while the other four would be spread in four directions, as if ready to face danger from any direction.
—Spider Monkey.
It was a rare Demon-affiliated Fond Spirit, highly intelligent and agile, adept at some controlling skills.
It had grown to Jade Infant Small Achievement; its unrestrained dominant aura covered a large area around itself.
Gamblers kept their distance, their trepidation palpable.
However, when they heard Anlatusa agree to Mr. Huo’s request, allowing higher-level beast fights.
This fear was diluted, people were excited, cheers echoed continuously.
"Mr. Huo is indeed something! Only when such a distinguished guest arrives, Lord An allows Rainbow Light level beasts fight!"
"Start, let’s start! I still have 300 chips! I can definitely turn it around!"
"Steward, I have a magic stone here. How many chips can I get if I pawn it? Ok, ok, exchange! Today, I’ll win everything back, including investment and profit! Victory!!"
...
Gambler’s world is filled with greed.
They always believed they could win. Watching higher-level beast fights start, they were all keen, as if afraid to miss the opportunity to make a fortune.
Ye Hanjun and Dongfang Xu did not buy any new chips.
Wins and losses, but with more than a thousand principal left, playing a few rounds is not a problem.
"The casino’s leader is indeed here today..."
Ye Hanjun and Dongfang Xu looked at each other, one was unperturbed, the other slightly regretful.
Jin Shanshan was one of their own, he was the only one in Canghai Pavilion that knew Dongfang Xu didn’t die. Instead, he survived taking on the identity of Fire thief.
For this operation, Jin Shanshan served as their bait, responsible for attracting attention.
As expected, the head of the casino—Anlatusa, didn’t leave today.
Since he was here, today was not the moment to strike, they needed to plan that for another time.
"Billa ka! Little Karma!"
"Hiss! Hiss!"
...
Eight big iron cages were brought in, the unique stench of beasts suddenly overpowered the smell of blood.
When the black cover cloth was lifted, the crowd erupted into cheers, wave after wave.
Icy Grass Wolf, Water Bear, Blood-sucking mosquitoes, Sea Bullfrog, Lance Pig, Bronze Snake, Red-eye Meat-eating Rabbit, Pointed Hedgehog.
Eight wild Fond Spirits—all were Rainbow Light Fetuses!
Four of them were Rainbow Light Void Extraction, and four were Rainbow Light Small Achievement.
Since they were all injected with stimulating drugs, their eyes were red, bear paw slapping, rabbit paw scratching, and spear charging... they all wanted to escape the cage, to wreak havoc.
"This is interesting! All are different species! It’s hard to tell who is stronger!"
"Does this Lance Pig seem a bit mutated, I feel its fangs are sharper?"
"Hey, the beasts captured for fights all have been forcefully modified!"
"That fang is artificially sharpened. Although for the fat pig it was as painful as having bones cut and flesh sliced, it can enhance a little bit of attacking force and make the ultimate battle more suspenseful!"
"So that’s how it is!!"
The gamblers started to cheer. A bunny girl shaking her hips went up to draw lots.
Eight beasts, randomly assigned into groups based on level, the related betting and odds were also opened at the same time.
This time, Dongfang Xu glanced at Ye Hanjun.
Ye Hanjun nodded slightly. After evaluating the conditions of the eight beasts, he bet on the Bronze Snake and the Pointed Hedgehog.
Since they were here, and had lost the opportunity to hunt.
The Spirit Stones that were thrown in, as many as could be should be reclaimed, to minimize the loss as much as possible.
"Buzz! Buzz!"
"Snort! Snort!"
The battle began, reaching a new round of exhilaration among the spectators.
Blood-sucking mosquito VS Lance Pig, one flying, one land-based, each excelling in different fields.
Most people believed that the Lance Pig was rough and heavy, and even if the blood-sucking mosquito fed on its blood, it wouldn’t have the capability to defeat it.
However, what surprised everyone was the blood-sucking mosquito, relying on faster speed, stabbed its eyeball, and after nearly ten minutes of battle, it turned the tables.
"What a waste this fat pig is, right? It’s ridiculously stupid!"
"I lost a bet of 500 chips! I lost all my remaining capital! Is there anyone who could lend me some more? Guaranteed to make a comeback in the next round!!"
...
The fights continued one by one.
Ye Hanjun was not 100% sure, to guarantee that the Bronze Snake and Pointed Hedgehog could win.
But, he judged that the two had a higher chance of winning, anything less than a guarantee, and it wasn’t worth trying.
As for Jin Shanshan · Huo Xin... he made a bet according to his own ideas.
This young master, holding a rose and courting the female attendants all around, was very much in his element, perfectly balancing chatting up women and the beast fights, and having a great time.
In fact, he was also carrying out a mission.
Whether he was flirting with the attendants or bragging mutually with Anlatusa, he was gathering intelligence.
He had not forgotten that the ultimate goal of this trip was to understand the composition of the casino staff, if he could get to know Anlatusa’s preferences and daily routines, it would indeed be a valuable return.
