Age of Empires From Scratch - Chapter 556

[Chapter 553 Hello Army]

After watching the show for a while, Cheng Le’er went to the deck to enjoy the night breeze and then went back to rest. She was in pain and happiness again.

However, David restrained himself a little this time. Although Cheng Le’er felt sore all over, she was still awake. She now deeply understood what Sofia said to her – David was indeed a beast. She even had the idea of calling Sofia to help, but she felt too ashamed in her heart and resisted the urge to speak.

However, if this goes on every day, she doesn’t know if she can bear it…

With doubts, Cheng Le’er had another dreamless night. When she opened her eyes, it was already dawn. The quality of sleep in the past two days was simply amazing. She didn’t have to worry about insomnia in the future.

While she was thinking about it, she remembered the various effects of the golden apple that Sofia told her. Driven by curiosity, Cheng Le’er wanted to go to the bathroom to check it out.

She resisted the soreness all over her body and got up and went down, but her legs were weak and trembling. She even had difficulty standing, let alone walking.

“…”

Why didn’t I have such a serious sequelae yesterday? Cheng Le’er couldn’t figure it out, but she still lay back on the bed obediently, and then she saw David looking at her with a smirk on his face.

“You’re very proud, right?”

“Of course.”

Any man would be proud of this situation, and it was really interesting to see Cheng Le’er’s legs shaking with every step he took.

“Now I can’t do anything today.” In this state, even if it can be relieved later, there is no way to run around, at most find a place to stay.

Fortunately, this time they are going to travel by boat. If it is a normal trip, she can only stay in the hotel and can’t do anything.

Now, you can also go to the deck to bask in the sun and blow the sea breeze.

In fact, there are only a few main activities on the ship. At most, David goes to the casino to make some money from time to time.

Although Cheng Xiaonan did not come to supervise in person, David has added the 10,000 yuan she contributed to his chips in proportion, and successfully multiplied it tenfold.

Two days before the charity poker competition, David successfully won 3 million US dollars and qualified for the main competition.

“I didn’t expect that I could really win three million.”

This ship attracted a lot of rich people, because not only did David win three million US dollars, but Chen Xiaodao also earned the entry fee.

“What do you think?”

The two masters who qualified for the main competition were sitting in the bar, each holding a glass of wine and chatting about business.

Chen Xiaodao told David his thoughts and formally introduced his identity: Chen Xiaodao, the disciple of the gambling god Gao Jin and the title of gambling hero, his English name is Michael, and friends who are familiar with him like to call him Daozi.

“What do you want me to do?”

“I hope you can help during the competition.”

“Together to deal with Haishan who pretended to be your gambling hero?”

“Not just Haishan.”

According to the results of the investigations by Long Wu and Long Jiu in the past few days, Haishan has deployed a lot of people on this ship, and those who boarded the ship as security personnel are all carrying guns.

But this is not the point. The point is that Haishan has installed a lot of high-tech monitoring equipment in various places in the casino to facilitate Haishan to cheat at the card table.

That’s not all. According to intelligence, Haishan has also invited a master who knows special abilities to help. Although Chen Xiaodao feels that his gambling skills have been practiced very well, facing the combination of high technology and special abilities, he dare not say that he will win.

In this case, it is natural to strive for more help, and David is undoubtedly a good choice.

“Besides, there is the troublemaker named Gundam.”

Gundam is also a famous figure in the gambler circle, known as the prodigal son.

This person has superb card skills and strong gambling skills, but he is used to being alone and does not cooperate with anyone. He should be here simply to “make money.”

Normally, if he wants to make money, he can make money, and there is no conflict with Chen Xiaodao.

But Chen Xiaodao’s trip is to deal with Haishan. If he and Haishan are fighting hard at the poker table, and in the end both of them lose, and Gundam takes away the final victory, what’s the matter?

“He shouldn’t participate in the competition?” The charity poker competition is pure throwing money, with no benefits. Even if Gundam wins all the chips in the end, it is meaningless.

Unless he knew that this so-called competition was a scam, so he came here specifically to pick up the bargain.

“Gundam may have received the inside information a long time ago, so he came all the way here.”

“So, you want me to help you deal with Gundam, the possible special ability masters and Haishan?”

“Almost.”

“I see, how much are you prepared to pay?”

“Well…” Although Chen Xiaodao knew that David was not short of money, he also understood that one thing should be considered one thing. David’s Wanshiwu was doing this business. If you come to entrust him, it would be unreasonable in any way if you don’t pay him enough: “One million US dollars.”

“That sounds good.”

Another million in revenue, his Wanshiwu is really doing a booming business!

He didn’t ask Chen Xiaodao if he had the money to pay. A dignified gambler wouldn’t be unable to take out even one million US dollars.

Moreover, when Haishan was dealt with, the money Haishan got would be a large amount. The probability of returning this money was not very high. The biggest possibility was that he really used it for charity.

As a key figure who exposed the scam, it was reasonable for Chen Xiaodao to take some of the reward from it. His reward should come from this.

“I’ve accepted your commission.”

Everyone was straightforward. There was no need to sign a contract or find a notary. Just clinking glasses was considered a cooperation agreement, and it was also a celebration of the successful agreement.

After the deal was settled, David got up and left, but saw Feiying also came to the bar.

“What a coincidence!”

“Yes.”

After a simple greeting, David left directly, but looked back before leaving and found that Feiying was also looking for Chen Xiaodao. It seemed that Chen Xiaodao was going to hire Asian Feiying for help.

“It’s true that he didn’t let go of all the available resources!”

The Gambler, Feiying, and himself should have the support of Long Wu, Long Jiu, Cheng Xiaodong, etc. behind them. That Haishan is probably going to be in big trouble.

In the original plot, he only faced Chen Xiaodao, who couldn’t prove his identity as a Gambler, and the Gambler Saint who had his special abilities destroyed by him.

Even so, he failed to win in the end.

Now the opponent has changed to the well-prepared Chen Xiaodao, the Asian Feiying who wants to make extra money, and himself, the super-enhanced version of the Gambler Saint. I really don’t know how that Haishan can become the final winner.

After going back and talking to Sophia and Cheng Le’er, the Wanshiwu will earn another one million US dollars on this trip.

But everyone’s reaction was very calm.

“Why don’t you look very happy?”

“It’s not that I need this one million.” Sophia felt that money was just a number. She had never lacked money, so she didn’t feel much joy when she made money.

The biggest purpose of Cheng Le’er and David opening the Wanshiwu together was to snatch David away, not to make money, so she was not so excited now.

Cheng Xiaoxi knew that this money had nothing to do with her, so there was no need to be excited.

However, it should be quite interesting to watch several masters compete on the spot.

Time soon came to the day of the charity poker competition.

The preliminary round ended yesterday. In addition to David and Chen Xiaodao who earned three million in entrance fees respectively, Gaoda, nicknamed the prodigal son, also saved enough entrance fees through the accumulation of so many days at the ordinary gambling table.

In addition to the three of them, the rest were wealthy people who directly paid three million US dollars, and the organizer of this charity poker competition, Haishan, who called himself a gambling hero.

Because there were a little more people, two tables were set up in the competition venue. Two tables were playing cards at the same time. Those who lost all their chips were immediately eliminated. When the number of people at the two tables dropped below six, the two tables were merged into one.

After introducing the rules of the game, Haishan asked the contestants to draw lots to decide which table they would sit at in order to show fairness. He was the last person and sat at the table with fewer people.

David used his perception to check while drawing lots and found that Feiying, Long Wu, Cheng Xiaodong and others were all acting in secret.

Long Jiu followed Chen Xiaodao and acted as a female companion, assistant and bodyguard.

David secretly told Sophia to pay attention to protecting Cheng Xiaoxi and Cheng Xiaonan. If there were no accidents, there would definitely be a conflict here today, and there might also be a gunfight.

As for Cheng Le’er, she would be David’s female companion and would stay by his side all the time, so she didn’t need to worry about her own safety.

In the final draw, David sat at a table with Gaoda and several wealthy people, while Chen Xiaodao, Haishan and several other wealthy people sat together.

David glanced and saw a one-eyed dragon among the people at the same table.

“Haishan is very confident! Is he going to deal with Chen Xiaodao himself and let the one-eyed army come to harvest the money on this table?” David looked at the Gundam next to him again: “Or is he here specifically to deal with this guy?”

It made no difference to David. In a way, Gundam was also his target.

If everything went well, he wanted to clear all the people at this table.

When the game officially started, David found that it was not just him who wanted to kill everyone at the table.

The special ability master Dajun invited by Haishan, and the Gundam beside him, obviously had the same idea as him.

The two of them relied on special abilities and the other relied on very powerful tricks. They killed all kinds of people and quickly cleared the three fools who entered the game at their own expense.

Then, David noticed that the two of them were almost targeting him at the same time.

“…”

Gundam was just cheating on his own cards, but Dajun actually tried to use illusions to influence him.

Of course, David could not be fooled. After being immune to Dajun’s illusion interference several times in a row, the special ability master finally realized that small-scale illusions were useless to David.

So, he prepared to use his ultimate move to make David fall into an extremely real illusion and embarrass himself in public.

Then, let’s see if you still have the nerve to continue playing!

The next second, the army danced an indescribable weird dance in front of everyone, and at the same time took off their clothes one by one…
