After solving the problems of Regnar and Inelise, the next thing became much easier.
Regnar rested in the hotel for another week before he fully recovered. Later, he also joined the ranks of working to make money, but it was just because it was slower to make money from these jobs. According to Regner's calculations, at this rate, they might not be able to board the passenger ship to the Western Continent until next year.
Therefore, he and Kordak decided to go to the casino to try their luck without telling the other two women.
As it turned out, the two of them were lucky. Regnar grew up in a slum, where the coolies liked to get together to "play a few games" when they had nothing to do. Regnar, who had nothing to do all day, liked to watch them gamble when he was a child, but he never tried it under the dual pressure of the old man and the economy.
Now that he is finally able to try it for himself, the "Skillful Little Thunder" from the Melinder slum has proven that he is not only good at sliding through doors, picking locks, and stealing chickens and dogs, but he is also incredible at changing cards to make thousands.
On the other hand, Kordak was addicted to gambling for a period of time when he was young. If it hadn't been for this woman's strong resistance after meeting Vera, Kordak's current occupation would not be a mercenary but a gambler. This guy is tall and thick, but he is also very good at counting and counting cards when gambling. He and Regnar joined forces and worked together to kill all the underground casinos in the town, leaving nothing behind.
The end result was that their huge profits attracted the attention of the small town's underworld. When Regnar and Kordak came out of the casino, several gangsters blocked them.
"Our boss wants you to come over and come with us!" A ruffian ordered them while playing with the dagger in his hand with clumsy skills.
Kordak and Regnar looked at each other. Because of their sensitive identities, Regnar was able to make a small disguise for himself and his boss before going to the underground casino. Although the general appearance has not changed much, the temperament has undergone a lot of changes.
Currently, Regner looks like a middle-aged man in his thirties, while Kordak looks a little younger, well... he looks like he is in his thirties.
Regnar nodded slightly, indicating that he was confident in his disguise technique. And since Regnar nodded, Kordak naturally wouldn't say anything more. Just follow their wishes. Paying a few gold coins can save you a lot of trouble. Otherwise, being chased by such gangsters will be a troublesome thing.
Under the leadership of the little ruffian, the two people quickly arrived at their boss's place. It was a somewhat crowded basement. The reason why it was crowded was because there were seven or eight strong men staying there. It seemed that the boss was trying to support the scene. You can call it.
But Kordak and Regnar are both mercenaries who have been burned countless times. Ordinary people like them who only have muscles but cannot inspire fighting spirit, let alone seven or eight, seven or eighty of them. Don't be afraid. So the two of them smiled calmly, and then consciously found a place to sit down.
The boss's eyes twitched when he saw Regnar and Kordak being so calm. In the past, when he invited people from the town over to talk, wasn't that one trembling with fear? Why are these two outsiders so calm and composed
But the boss didn't realize that this was because Kordak and Regnar had absolute confidence in their own strength, but attributed it to these two idiots who didn't know the heights of the world. So thinking about this, the boss also became angry.
"It can be seen that the two of them are veterans who have been in this kind of place for many years." The boss also said while swinging the dagger, which made Regnar suspect that the rogue's clumsy technique just now was taught by him.
"It's easy to talk." Kordak nodded: "Brother, there is no need to be too polite. We all know what you mean by asking us to come here. You can set a price. We just want to make a few bucks and don't want to cause any trouble. thing."
Kordak's slightly disdainful tone completely angered the boss. He suddenly waved his hand and nailed the dagger directly to the wooden table, and then said coldly: "This is not a matter of money at all. How much does that casino cost?" It's my territory, so you two just ransacked it without even saying hello. Let's talk about it, how much should you vomit based on this?"
"Twenty percent?" Kordak spread his hands: "This is the limit I can accept. You have to leave two mouths for us, right? Otherwise our efforts today will be in vain."
"All of them!" The boss suddenly jumped over, and he approached Kordak with his eyes wide open: "Today's money will be used as a lesson to you. From tomorrow on, I will not stop you from gambling, but you must be careful to keep your hands properly. At the same time, 80% of the money earned belongs to me.”
"Can you leave more for us?" Kordak sighed. He didn't expect things to develop to this point. It seems that there is no way to make things better today.
"Okay." The boss replied without hesitation: "For every 10% less, you two will each leave one finger. Keep all ten. I don't want this money."
"Then how will we draw cards in the future?" Kordak smiled bitterly: "Can't we be accommodating?"
"No, this is already the most favorable condition." The boss shrugged.
"..." Kordak was speechless. He and Regnar looked at each other and nodded at the same time. Then Kordak turned to the boss and said, "Then, we can only be sorry..."
A few minutes later, this ordinary and peaceful town suddenly remembered the man's scolding. Then people in the town saw two men being chased around by the gangsters in the town. Because they didn't want to reveal their identities, Kordak and Regner just ran away without fighting anyone. .
The two people ran around and finally managed to get back to the hotel. They hurriedly found Vera and Inelise, and then pulled them away without any explanation. Fortunately, because these days they are looking for accommodation in towns while traveling, and the gifts around them are all packed.
The two women inexplicably put on their backpacks and ran wildly with Kordak. They ran for an unknown amount of time before they got rid of the gangsters in the wilderness.
After confirming that they were safe, the two were forced to explain to Vera and Inelise the reason for being hunted this time.
As a result, this time, let alone Vera, even Inelis reprimanded them.
"Okay, let me tell you, where did you two sneak away tonight? It turns out you went to gamble!" Vera nodded Kordak's forehead and said: "You are really talented. Even I gave you You dare to forget the rules, right?"
"Hehehehehe..." Kordak said with a flattering smile: "How dare you? Xiao Lei asked me to go there. Besides, we were also considering the funds. Look, we made dozens of gold coins this time. , the money comes in much faster than working as a coolie!”
"Boss, what you are saying is unreasonable!" Regnar argued: "What did I ask you to do? It was obviously you who told me to go find a place with me to try your luck. This will be blamed on me again. ?Sister Vera, you have to be aware of everything, this is my first time touching a card today! I don’t even know what gambling is!"
"Stop pretending here!" Inelise also scolded: "My brother would rather go hungry than gamble. He told me that it was a very bad behavior! Huh! One slap can't make a sound. , Uncle Kordak would definitely not have gone alone without your consent! You two must have colluded!"
"Yini said that very well! Wait until the next town uncle buys you candy!" Kordak found his comrade in an instant.
"You're not a good person either!" Verati said with Kordak's ears: "Humph, Xiao Lei has never gambled before, but you have brought others to the road today!"
"Shit!" Kordak spat: "This kid has never gambled? Have you never seen his grace in the casino? He is better at throwing and cutting cards than me! If he had never gambled, I would share his surname! "
"I have had no father or mother since I was a child, and I have no surname at all!" Regnar shouted: "Boss, you are not convincing at all!"
Kordak: “*@&￥… #%￥&”
Vera: "!&… ￥*&… #￥"
Regnar: “&*…￥*”
Enelise: "#*&… *#&%… "
In this way, the four people had a huge quarrel in the wilderness. In the end, Vera led her new subordinate Enelise to severely repair the men's army before the matter was settled.
She twisted the two men's ears into twists and made them promise not to gamble again.
But a few days later, Kordak and Regnar went to the casino again, and the process was similar to the last time. Vera and Inelise were inexplicably hunted together while they were having lunch...
Although the two men were educated many times, they refused to change. But even so, Vera had to admit that if these two guys teamed up, they would indeed be unfavorable in the casino. By the time they arrived at the Silver Moon Forest, they already had hundreds of gold coins in their wallets. The speed at which these two treasures made money in the casino was simply outrageous!
After passing the Silver Moon Forest, you will reach the Roermi Seaport, which is the only way to the western continent. It is also the place where Regnar's wonderful life began in the past few years. Every time he thinks that he will return there again, Regnar's heart surges.
