Chapter 31

Slap!

Slap!

Slap!

In the quiet hall, the sound of clapping suddenly rang out, instantly waking Lin Dong from his mental turmoil. His eyes regained their clarity.

"Shit!"

Roberts let out a coarse curse, somewhat annoyed.

"King Roberts, what a brilliant psychological tactic! You invited me to the gambling match with only one goal: to disrupt Lin Dong's rhythm and throw him off balance by announcing the defeat of the Guizhou demon. As the saying goes, the first surge of energy is strong, the second is weak, and the third is exhausted. With Lin Dong's morale and energy low, how could he possibly be your match!"

Wang Zhong looked at the French gambling king Roberts with some admiration.

"You are a master of psychological tactics, but you shouldn't have involved me!"

Wang Zhong felt very displeased, extremely displeased, at being used.

"You're right, and I almost succeeded!"

Roberts shrugged, showing no sign of disappointment.

"Mr. Wang, thank you. If you hadn't reminded me in time, I would have lost for sure!"

Lin Dong said gratefully to Wang Zhong.

"Roberts, our match can begin now!"

Lin Dong, looking at the indifferent Roberts, said somewhat angrily.

"OK, six dice, compare the totals, the higher wins, the lower loses, all-in, one round to decide the winner. The rules are simple, right?"

Roberts lifted the dice cup and placed six dice inside. His bodyguards opened a briefcase, revealing a million dollars in neatly stacked bills.

"No problem!"

Lin Dong snapped his fingers. The current exchange rate between US dollars and Hong Kong dollars was about 1 to 10. The waiter neatly stacked ten boxes of Hong Kong dollars on the gambling table, forming a square block, about half a cubic meter in size.

Wang Zhong's mouth gaped open. He had only seen such a grand scene on TV and in movies.

He never thought he would have the chance to experience it firsthand!

The staff from both sides quickly inspected the stakes and confirmed there were no issues, ready to proceed with the match.

Lin Dong and Roberts exchanged a glance and simultaneously picked up the dice from the table and placed them in their dice cups.

Slap!

Slap!

Slap!

The dice clattered against the cup walls, making a crisp sound. After shaking them more than ten times, Roberts tossed the cup, which didn't fall but instead orbited around him like the moon around the Earth.

Advanced cup technique, Earth's gravity!

The cup, back in Roberts' hand, began to vibrate rapidly, emitting a buzzing sound.

Advanced dice technique, fatal vibration!

Compared to Roberts' dazzling dice techniques, Lin Dong's seemed much simpler.

The cup was shaken up and down, front and back, the dice clattering against the cup, making a pleasant sound like a symphony!

But Lin Dong's hand speed was incredibly fast, and Wang Zhong could only see a blur of movement.

No one knew how many times he had shaken the cup!

Slap!

Lin Dong's cup was the first to hit the table, his face full of confidence. Under the cup, it must be a perfect six!

Slap!

Roberts' cup followed!

Wang Zhong's expression changed. As soon as Roberts' cup hit the table, it resonated with the table, causing a subtle change in Lin Dong's cup.

Lin Dong, however, was completely unaware.

"Please!"

"Please!"

Their cups were lifted by a designated person.

Roberts' six dice all showed six, forming a column!

36 points!

Lin Dong looked at his dice with disbelief. They formed a column of six, but the top die showed five!

35 points!

Lin Dong lost to the French gambling king Roberts by a single point!

This loss not only cost Lin Dong 10 million Hong Kong dollars but also tarnished the reputation of the Grand Lisboa Casino!

"Lin, your gambling skills are already very high, but you were too careless!"

Roberts, looking at the Hong Kong dollars being packed away, sympathetically glanced at the dispirited Lightning Hand Lin Dong.

"Macau, truly a delightful place!"

"I love Macau, and I love the money here even more!"

Roberts greedily sniffed the ink on the bills, then looked at the pensive Wang Zhong and asked with a smile.

"They are truly beautiful, and with them, you are the king of the world, don't you think, buddy?"

"Yes, they are truly beautiful!"

Wang Zhong looked up and smiled.

"Buddy, you think so too, you are an interesting person!"

Roberts, feeling his views were validated, said somewhat neurotically.

"So, I've decided to keep them!"

Wang Zhong, looking at the colorful bills on the table, said seriously.

"What are you going to do? This is a legitimate casino! If you have any other ideas, you'll be riddled with bullets in an instant!"

Roberts clutched the money to his chest, his warning clear.

"I want to gamble with you!"

Wang Zhong ignored the warning in Roberts' words and smiled.

"Hey, boy, do you know what you're saying? You want to gamble with me? I'm the French gambling king Roberts!"

Roberts looked at Wang Zhong, somewhat disbelieving, as if he were looking at a madman.

"I think they will change your mind!"

Wang Zhong pushed a check for 21 million Hong Kong dollars to the center of the table.

Roberts' bodyguards quickly tested the check with a laser pen and nodded affirmatively to Roberts.

"Mr. Wang, you can't do this. You have no chance against Roberts!"

Lin Dong, regaining his senses, said anxiously.

"Lin, you're cheating!"

Roberts gently waved his hand at Lin Dong, signaling him to be quiet.

"Boy, no, Mr. Wang, you're right, I've changed my mind!"

Looking at the check on the table, the French gambling king Roberts swallowed and said greedily.

"Still six dice, this time we'll bet on the lower total!"

Wang Zhong smiled at Lin Dong in gratitude, then turned to Roberts and said with a smile.

"Of course, you decide!"

Roberts, completely unconcerned, said confidently.

Roberts picked up the cup with a light touch and shook it with force. With each shake, his ears trembled slightly.

Compared to Roberts, Wang Zhong's movements were much clumsier.

Slap!

Slap!

Slap!

In less than a minute, Roberts confidently placed the cup on the table.

Wang Zhong seemed to have found a trick, and the force on the cup suddenly increased, causing a violent clattering sound inside!

Slap!

Wang Zhong's action was large, but strangely, the sound of the cup hitting the table was very soft.

Roberts seemed to sense something and showed a hint of surprise, but thinking of Wang Zhong's clumsy movements, his tense heart relaxed instantly.

"Open the cup!"

Roberts, as expected, rolled a column of six ones.

6 points!

Lin Dong turned his face away, unable to bear the sight.

"Mr. Wang, I think I've won!"

Roberts smiled in a noble manner, his white, jade-like fingers slowly reaching for the check.

The bodyguards began to pack the dollars and Hong Kong dollars on the table.

3 million dollars!

GOODLUCK!

"Gambler Mr. Wang, my cup isn't open yet, you're celebrating too early!"

Wang Zhong smiled warmly.

"Did you roll six ones too?"

Roberts asked, somewhat surprised.

"No!"

Wang Zhong replied firmly.

"Then what's the point of looking?"

Roberts looked at Wang Zhong, puzzled, unable to understand the Eastern man's thinking.

"There is, because the number I rolled is zero!"

Wang Zhong gently lifted the cup, revealing a pile of white powder inside.

"MY GOD!"

Roberts, Lin Dong, and others looked at Wang Zhong with disbelief.

Wang Zhong had used a hidden force while shaking the cup to shatter all the dice. This was the confidence that allowed him to challenge Roberts.

"Cheater, you must have cheated!"

Roberts looked at Wang Zhong, somewhat frightened.

"Mr. Roberts, please believe in the credibility of our Grand Lisboa Casino. Reviewing the surveillance footage, Mr. Wang did not cheat at all!"

The gambling king Stanley Ho walked in, followed by several high-level gambling experts.

"I lost!"

Seeing Stanley Ho, Roberts had no illusions and surrendered the cup without hesitation.
