Demon Cultivator in Abyssal Era

Chapter 185: Chapter 136: Rules of the Trial (Part 3)

But at this moment, Chu Xiu thought, if the masked man really didn’t switch cards, he wouldn’t have to remind him and could directly let the notary check, and then Chu Xiu would be automatically judged to lose. Why would he kindly remind him?

However, he thought again, the last time he reported, the notary reminded him once. Maybe every time he reports, the notary will repeat the warning, so the masked man is just trying to mislead him by saying it proactively.

And just as this thought arose, the mechanical voice of the notary timely sounded: ”If the report fails, this round will automatically result in a loss. Are you sure you want to report?”

This made Chu Xiu even more conflicted, while the masked man opposite showed a confident smile.

After a while, Chu Xiu let out a light breath: ”I’m sure!”

Chu Xiu didn’t understand gambling, but he understood human nature. He didn’t believe that a gambler like the masked man would entrust his fate to others!

Of course, the main reason he could decide so quickly was that it didn’t matter even if he lost.

As soon as he spoke, the notary immediately stepped forward to remove the masked man’s robe for inspection, but as soon as it pinched the masked man’s arm, a card-like shape protruded.

Chu Xiu’s mouth curled into a smile, knowing he had bet correctly.

However, at that moment, he noticed that the masked man not only wasn’t panicking, but his eyes even showed a mocking look.

Suddenly, flames erupted from him, engulfing him instantly!

The masked man screamed in the flames, but quickly slipped out of his burning robe and threw it onto the ground.

The notary approached methodically and opened the robe, only to find the burned-out cards.

Then it stood up, a blinding red light emanating from its chest.

”Evidence destroyed, report invalid.”

Chu Xiu: ”???”

His momentary dazed expression was captured by the masked man, who immediately let out a joyful laugh, the remaining half of his face shaking violently with laughter.

”You’re clever, but the moment you agreed to this gamble, your fate was already sealed!”

”Our lord imitated the God of Gambling to create this world, but he doesn’t possess the power of a god. The notaries he prepared for us common gamblers are just a bunch of rigid fools!”

”They can only perform simple logical thinking, and even the content of the gamble must be pre-input, so without solid evidence, a report cannot be judged!”

”Initially, there was punishment for destroying evidence, but after the lord found this system easily exploitable, he simply removed the punishment.”

”So—”

The masked man laughed heartily, revealing his cards: ”You lost!”

9+9+3, the biggest 21!

With the outcome decided, the chains binding Chu Xiu tightened abruptly, almost simultaneously, the two notaries opposite him lit the fuses of the fire cannons!

The masked man widened his one remaining eye, eager to enjoy Chu Xiu’s performance before his death.

But to his disappointment, Chu Xiu showed no fear or panic, only holding his forehead with some resignation and ”sighing”.

”I can’t believe I was stupid enough to honestly play a boring game with you.”

”However, thank you for helping me determine the rules of this trial.”

”What I need to do is not to break the gambling game, but to completely shatter it!”

As he finished speaking, the fuses fully burned out, igniting the compressed gunpowder, which exploded with tremendous energy in an instant!

”Boom!”

The two coastal fire cannons suddenly spewed fierce cannon fire and smoke! The entire room trembled, like two ancient beasts roaring!

Amidst the deafening roar, two cannonballs shot out!

And just then, the Demon Arm suddenly appeared behind Chu Xiu and reached out forcefully!

”Clang!!!”

The nearly eardrum-piercing metal collision sound came from the smoke, and as the dust cleared, what happened made the masked man’s eyes nearly pop out!

Those two cannonballs were actually caught in the Demon Arm of Chu Xiu!

”Clang.”

Two cannonballs, almost turned into iron pancakes from the impact, fell to the ground, while under the incredulous gaze of the masked man, Chu Xiu stood up slowly.

”Now, it’s my turn for a gamble.”

He wore a gentle smile, as the two Demon Arms hovered in front of the frightened masked man.

”Let’s bet on whether you can guess if I’ll hit you with my left hand or my right hand.”
