Chapter 101 Cards
"Thank you!" Standing outside the town, Russell thanked Roberto.
Roberto waved his hand, looked at Russell's thin clothes, and said, "Stop talking nonsense, go buy some clothes quickly."
Russell smiled, bent down and touched the top of the sled dog named Sol. Said: "Thank you for your hard work."
"Aww!" Sol called to Russell, licked Russell's palm and wagged his tail.
"Goodbye then." Russell smiled and waved his hand, nodded to Roberto, and walked into the town.
Although the weather was not very good yesterday and there are still dark clouds all over the place, as time goes by, like a small town built in the ice and snow, it gradually becomes lively as people appear one by one.
People have long been accustomed to the cold here, so life goes on as usual.
The town was not big, but Russell looked at it very carefully. He spent some time walking around and had lunch at a restaurant.
Although this body was created by him, there are still some differences from a real human body, such as the special metal used as bones in the body.
However, the body made with Bloom's technology has some of the same functions as humans, such as converting food into energy for the body's actions.
Therefore, food and other things are one of the sources of energy for this body to maintain action.
After lunch, Russell walked into one of the two busiest places in the town.
A small casino that doesn't even have a name.
The place is small but bustling with activity.
Dressed men crowded into the small casino, shouting with joy or annoyance. Russell's ears buzzed as soon as he entered.
There are many people and the place is small, so some miscellaneous smells are inevitable. The vague sour smell has been floating in Russell's nose, which made him frown and unconsciously stretched out his hand to press his nose.
Russell pressed his hat gently and walked towards the small casino.
After taking a look, Russell walked towards a poker table, where there happened to be an unlucky guy who lost his money and left his seat with a sigh.
With one step, and with the windbreaker swinging behind him, Russell had already sat firmly on the stool as the others walked towards it.
This table is for blackjack, a simple game.
There is no need to change any chips in the small casino, and all gambling is done with cash. The man who acts as the croupier at the gambling table draws money in proportion to the winning hand, which is somewhat different from the rules in ordinary casinos.
"Play?" The croupier looked at Russell, adjusted the cards in his hand, and said, "Where's the money?"
Russell smiled slightly, took out a pile of green banknotes from his pocket and put it in front of him, and said, "U.S. dollars are okay. "
The croupier took a look at the thickness of the pile of money, nodded, and said, "Okay!"
When the game started, Russell thought about it, unfolded his clothes, and a strange feeling appeared to Russell.
That's the ability to control poker, a feeling of having a winning ticket.
He flicked his fingers slightly and made a sound on the table. He held down the two bright cards sent by the dealer and pressed them gently on the table. Suddenly, the conspicuous tattoos on his fingers made the people around him stunned for a moment. , giving the evaluation of a gambler in his mind.
With the exception of the thumb, there is a pattern of playing cards below the joint on the back of each finger.
At this time, the tattooed fingers were gently pressing the cards in his hand.
Then, Russell knocked on the table and signaled the dealer to play another card.
The croupier looked at Russell expressionlessly, then flew a hidden card against the table in front of Russell, and Russell gently pressed it under his finger.
Without looking at the cards, Russell clearly knew what cards he was holding, and even what cards others were holding.
The cards told him...
Although it sounded false, it was true.
If the integration of man and sword represents a realm of swordsmanship, Russell has already surpassed this realm in terms of cards when equipped with the Colonial Equipment and Card Master.
Every card seems to have come to life in his hands, and he is the only king of these cards.
With a confident smile, Russell tapped the table with his fingers and said, "One more."
Upon hearing Russell's words, the spectators at the same gambling table as Russell and behind Russell were stunned for a moment, and then expressed different expressions.
The gamblers at the same gaming table looked like they were watching a good show. The people standing behind the gaming table sighed with some pity and laughed with some mockery.
Don't blame them, after all, Russell's two bright cards add up to eighteen points, and most people won't ask for eighteen points anymore.
However, Russell now has four cards, and there is a high chance of exploding over 21 points.
The cards were issued from the dealer's hand, placed on the table, and appeared in front of Russell. He held them with his tattooed fingers, still not looking at them. Instead, he put them together with the previous cards and paid no attention to the crowd. With all kinds of thoughts on his mind, he continued to speak calmly and said again: "Come again."
Hearing this, the laughter and sighs became louder, and the dealer also looked at Russell in surprise, but he still flew out a card quickly.
At this time, the fifth card has a greater chance of exploding. Unless the three hidden cards Russell pressed are all Aces, he can defeat the other gamblers on the gaming table without exploding.
However, the chance of this is very small. Another important point is that Russell did not check the cards at all. In the eyes of others, this behavior is a pure losing rhythm.
Others opened cards, and the biggest one was twenty points. That person already had the urge to take the money in front of him.
"Dong dong!"
Russell knocked on the table and said with a chuckle, "I haven't opened the cards yet?"
"Ha! You!?" The man looked at Russell mockingly and said, "Yours exploded! "
No!" Russell pressed his hat, with a signature sarcastic smile on his face, and said: "Today is my lucky day." After saying this, he
turned over the cards one by one indifferently.
21 o'clock.
no more, no less!
"Sorry, I won!"
With everyone's eyes widened, Russell put all the money in front of him with a smile.
Especially after hearing the system prompt and getting the achievement points, the smile in his eyes became a little bit thicker.
The money was collected and the gambling continued, but no one looked down upon the man in the hat anymore.
And then, the man wearing the hat also shocked everyone's attention with his undefeated performance.
It wasn't until no one dared to sit at the gambling table with him that Russell asked someone to find a bag, casually stuffed the money into the bag, and walked out of the casino with a nonchalance.
Although he didn't take this small amount of money seriously, Russell felt very happy with this feeling of winning, especially when he earned achievement points.
