Chapter 298 The Warlock's Gamble
Shade's identity is confirmed, and Mr. Walker warmly and He was talking, but was rudely interrupted by Miss Luisa:

"Stop, Walker, Shade has no reason to help you, and he only has the title of Knight, but he has no ability to help you get rid of the ban on that train skin. item, we won't be involved in your bootlegging business. Okay, let's talk about things, can we lower the price?"

Miss Luysha wasted time here not only because of the police just now When she received the goods, she learned from Mr. Walker that the parchment made from the skins of wild antelopes she ordered had temporarily increased in price.

It wasn't that Mr. Walker wanted to kill Miss Yisha, but the sudden incident on Thursday night caused the cost price of these rare materials to be transported from other places to Tobeysk to change drastically:

"The original 20-inch parchment was 12 pounds and 3 shillings, but now I have only raised it to 17 pounds, which is not much."

"But the price increase is in Luisa After the lady placed the order, this is an accident, and you are disrespecting the spirit of the contract."

Shade said to help, but the middle age person shrugged:

"I admire it very much. The spirit of the contract, but I also have money to spend. No one's gold pounds fell from the sky, and I can't let myself suffer."

"Oh, Walker, don't think I don't know, The price of getting goods from abroad is definitely not more than 11 pounds 7 shillings. Listen, I can pay you up to 13 pounds, otherwise the business is gone." Turn around and leave with Shade:

"£15, which is the lowest price."

The middle age person shook his head and said, without stopping Miss Luisa:
"The price of all materials in the Tobesque area has been going up for a while now because of those fucking lunatics. I know it's not right to tell you about the price increase when it's delivered, but I also have money to support my family."

"What kind of family are you raising as a bachelor? I think you're going to the club to play Rhodes."

Goldilocks ruthless sarcastically:

"You guys I also know the leader of the team, but he said about your bad hobby."

"Playing Rhodes is as important to me as eating."

Mr. Walker Responding with a smile, Shade on the side suddenly raised his eyebrows, and he had an idea:
"Do you want to play Rhodes?"

Miss Luyesha looked towards him in surprise, but Walker looked towards him in surprise. The gentleman laughed, showing a very interested expression. Shade is very familiar with this expression, and the opponent is definitely a Rhodes player.

"Mr Hamilton, what do you mean?"

"Let's play a game of cards and if I win, Miss Luisa will buy those parchments for £13. If you win Now, we'll buy your goods for 15 pounds"

"Do you have any special cards? I don't play against players with normal decks."

Mr Walker squinted eyes, Shade laughed too.

He took out the cards in his formal pocket, and in the expression of "Why do you carry this thing with you?" from Miss Luyisa, he sorted it out a little, put away the two founding series, and then took out [ Ancient Fairy · Match Girl】, 【Northern City · Lengshuigang City】【Old Continent Eastern Landscape · Teas Lake】【primordial Steam Engine·Mark 9】【Kasen Rick Southern Folklore·Moon Dance Festival】Five cards for the opponent Check.

Although he carries the deck with him, it is impossible to carry the identification document with him.

Mr Walker stared wide-eyed looked towards those five cards, apparently didn't expect so much good stuff from the young detective. Shade noticed his expression, the middle age person didn't seem to notice anything special about the Moondance cards.

"How's it going? Want to play a game with me?"

Shade asked again, believing that the other party would say yes. But this time he thought wrong, Mr. Walker handed the card back to Shade with some reluctance, and then shook his head:
"You have so many special cards, you must be an experienced player. I play poker, so you have a high probability of winning, in this case, what reason do I have to play poker with you?”

Shade was the first time someone refused to play Rhodes, he gestured Goldilocks stopped talking for a while, and then whispered:

"Aren't you confident in your Rhodes skills?"

Such a simple trick will definitely not work, So Shade added another sentence:
"As a Rhodes player, can you still say that you are a real poker player if you refuse when someone else proposes a game?"

middle age person tensed He hesitated, listening to the music of the opera in the distance, thinking for a long time before saying:
"I can bet with you, but not just Rhodes. We bet three times, two games in three rounds. Win. The last game is Lord's card, the first two games each proposes a bet, I will come first."

Shade glanced at Miss Luysha, saw the latter nodded, and said:
"Okay, so what are you going to bet first? The draw ratio? The dice?"

"Of course not, we run. Without attracting the attention of the ordinary person, from now The position moves 30 feet (about 9m), and the faster side wins."

"Oh, this is not fair!"

Miss Luyesha said frowned, pulling Shade's hand, She knows Shade's [Lagle's Jump]:
"I know your Mystic Art, Shade can't beat you."

"Nothing unfair, it's two wins in three games anyway. ."

Mr. Walker smiled confidently, then snapped his fingers, a small crackling sound in his ear. He dashed forward sharply, and his whole body seemed to turn into an electric light and appeared 30 feet away. He smiled and looked back towards Shade, indicating that it was his turn.

Shade looked towards Miss Luysha, and in the latter's unconcealed smile, she took out the extract and put it on the tip of her tongue, then said to Mr. Walker:

"Don't. Blink."

Taking a step forward, the next step came directly to Mr. Walker. The latter opened his mouth in surprise:

"Space Type ability? Luyisa, when did your group have a ring warlock to master this ability?"

"Walker, don't Feel free to inquire into other people's secrets."

Miss Luyesha said with a smile:

"We won the first game, Shade, what about the second game?"

"I'm going to bet"

Shade wants to say that the draw is 4, whoever draws first wins. But Mr. Walker interrupted him immediately, under the current circumstances he can't let Shade ask the question:
"The second game is Rhodes!"

"The third game is Rhodes! poker."

Shade doesn't do useless things, and if it's easy to win, he won't play poker.

The middle age person knew that he was unreasonable, he put forward other conditions, waved his hands and said:
"You and Luyisa really deceived me just now, don't rush to refuse. I I want to say that the race just now doesn't count. We still use Rhodes cards to compare the outcome according to your original proposal. If I win, I will still sell you those parchments for 15 pounds. If you win, I will not only sell the materials at a low price I'll sell it to you, and I can give you a message."

He looked towards Shade with a serious expression.

"What news?"

Shade asks, and it's okay to agree.

Seeing Shade's question, Mr. Walker smiled, he knew Shade's heart was moved:
"You know the 13-ring warlock originally stationed locally, the 'iron right hand' Mr. Surrey Pilot , hasn't been in the city since two months ago?"

"I even knew he was leading a team to a rural town to deal with a Lost Angel-level (Level 1) relic incident."

p>

Shade said the news was from Miss Beas (Chapter 177), when they talked about the returning president of the Society of Prophets.

"You know? That's right, but do you know exactly what that Angelic relic is?"

Mr. Walker asked again, Shade shook his head, and wore a black formal suit middle age person laughed:

"The additional information is the news of the angel-level relic. Note that the Church of the Orthodox God has almost completely wiped out the [Blood of Mercury], but no sage has been found in the underground ruins. Grade relic [God's Gift Box], the information about that relic can reach 100 pounds on the black market. So if you want to come at the angel level, you won't suffer from this bet. Oh, you must agree, otherwise it will not be the real Rhodes Players."

He used what Shade just said.

"No problem, I'll play poker with you."

Shade made a hesitant look before agreeing softly. Goldilocks glanced at him, she knew how well Shade played Rhodes:

"Shade, there's no need to take such a risk."

The tone was very worried .

"Luysha, Mr. Hamilton has already agreed, and he can't go back!"

Mr. Walker said hurriedly, and then drew out his deck for Shade to check. Two special cards, the deck also looks a bit old, and you can see that it is often used at a glance.

"By the way, when I was a businessman in Carson Rick, I had the title of 'The King of Gambling in Mount Sikar'."

Mount Sikar lies across the continent The central part is on the shore of the Eastern Sea, the mountain range which is an important dividing line between Carson Rick and Delarion. The front line of the windy trail where Captain Radees won the "Lance of Goodness", is just north of the Sikor Mountains.

And Mr. Walker's words are an important stage of "reckless words" before strangers play Rhodes. On the one hand, it is to show that he is an old player, and on the other hand, it is to intimidate the opponent and overwhelm the opponent in the imposing manner.

Shade smiled:
"I don't mean to brag about myself, but since I got into Rhodes, I haven't lost a single game since I started playing Rhodes. Yes, I You can swear to Mr. Dawn that what I, Shade Suellen Hamilton just said, is absolutely true."

Mr. Walker startled:
"Never lost a game? Oh, no, you Don't scare me, Knight, tonight is your moment of defeat. Come here."

The three walked together to the window at the end of the hallway, with the night view of Tobesque outside. . Under the warm yellow gas lights, Shade and Mr. Walker shuffle each other's cards, then put their decks on the windowsill together:

"One round decides the winner."

Shade Suggestion:

"I'm still thinking about opera."

"No problem."

Mr. Walker nodded, his eyes narrowed, looking towards his card Group.

But no one suggested that Miss Luysha, who was on the sidelines, act as the dealer. According to the unwritten rules of Rhodes, the dealer can only be male.

The two of them drew their first card, which is the hole card by convention, and can choose to be revealed at the end. Shade's card was 13, and Mr. Walker looked towards his hole card for a moment, then turned it over with a smile:

"Look, good luck tonight."
