central capital...
Underground casino.
Here lies the dark side of this bustling city.
The environment here is not so messy, but it looks very orderly.
Because even on the dark side, there are rulers of the dark side...
This is a magnificent casino. If this casino is moved to the earth, it must be built in a city like Macau or Las Vegas!
The unknown crystal chandelier on the ceiling reflects brilliant light.
Gorgeously dressed men and women shuttle here...
The rules of the game here are similar to those on Earth, the same poker is played, and the same chips are used.
It's just that there are many people around a gambling table...
There are only two people who are actually sitting at this gambling table, and everyone else has gathered here to watch the game.
Sitting at a corner of the gaming table, the tall man in a suit with gloomy eyes was familiar to everyone present. Carol, the deputy head of the Tacheng Knights, ranked 72nd in the central capital, usually came here to vent the pressure brought by his daily life after returning from missions.
Sitting next to him was a charming woman, whispering in his ear... from time to time, she glanced at the only opponent sitting opposite him.
This should be a very common sight in casinos... As for why it can attract so many people to watch it.
It is the opponent of the deputy knight leader.
The rules of this game are exactly the same as Stud's opponents in a two-person game.
The appearance is very unfamiliar, and I don't know which nobleman's heir sneaked out. At this time, he was holding a card in his hand, and he was looking at Carol with a candy in his mouth!
This guy's aura is so weak compared to Carol who is smoking a cigar...
"How many rounds is this? How much did that guy lose?"
"Ten million gold coins! Look. He's about to run out of chips again..."
The croupier dealt another card to the young man. The cards he laid out on the surface were an ace of hearts, a k of hearts, and a q of hearts. After turning over a card thrown by the croupier, it turned out to be a j of hearts!
Undoubtedly, the cards he laid out on the surface are almost the largest flush sequence in this game. As long as there is another 10 of hearts, no matter what the opponent's card is, he can only win in the end!
He pressed the corner of the card and took a look. As if the winning ticket was in his hands, he actually pushed out the hill of chips piled up around him.
Carol glanced at him with gloomy eyes, and pushed out all the chips in the same way. The croupier wisely sent the pat to the deputy head.
A large number of chips are piled up on the gaming table. If converted into gold coins, it is estimated that there are more than 10 million chips.
This is probably the table with the most bets since it opened tonight.
Carol exhaled a smoke ring. Looking at the young man in front of him.
"I remember your name?"
"Lu Qiu..." He smiled with his scarlet pupils slightly narrowed, and the charming women around him couldn't help but take a second look at this young man.
"Strange name, but don't try to win back all the chips you lost tonight!"
Carol stared at him and said every word.
In the last round, Carroll revealed his hole card, which was a straight flush of spades, which was just one level higher than a straight flush of hearts...
He bet that this young man doesn't have that 10 of Hearts at all!
He won!
The young man bit the candy in his mouth and spread out the cards he was pressing. It's just an ordinary ace of clubs.
"Hahahahaha!" The nervous Carol laughed. He looked at the ignorant young man with contempt: "You have already lost 15 million gold coins! I don't know which grand duke family you are the prodigal son, but hurry back, this is not a place where you candy!"
"Lost again..."
Lu Qiu didn't seem to care much about the ridicule around him.
So far, Lu Qiu has never won once...
Gambling this kind of thing. It seemed like a curse to Lu Qiu, luck was never on Lu Qiu's side from the very beginning. As long as it's about gambling, Lu Qiu will never win!
This is the result of Lu Qiu entrusting himself to fate...
"Don't worry, let's have another game."
Lu Qiu raised his hand to stop the deputy head who was about to leave with a bargaining chip.
"Boy, how much money do you have with you? Save some money and go home to buy milk!" Carol obviously didn't believe how much money Lu Qiu had on him.
"Is this... as a bargaining chip?"
Lu Qiu took out a glass bottle filled with dark red ** from his arms.
When this bottle of ** appeared on the table, almost everyone was breathless.
"Divine potion! This... guy has a bottle of divine potion!"
The people around were suddenly ebullient, and they recognized what this bottle of ** was.
Carol stood up and sat back in his original position.
"Boy, where did you get this bottle of potion?"
"Don't worry, if you take it away, no one will come to trouble you, so, would you like to play another game?"
Lu Qiu pushed the bottle of dark red milk towards him, and his breathing became short of breath.
The owner of this casino, a potion recently auctioned by the Fornut family!
Those who drink it can almost double their strength and awaken the blood of Lord Dragon God flowing in their body. That's why it is called a divine potion, a potion that awakens the divinity in the body...
What a magical potion this is for a world where power is status.
Almost everyone is flocking to it when it was just launched!
But because there are only a dozen bottles, it is almost priceless...
So precious, even if you triple the chips on the table, it's not enough to buy a bottle.
"Of course!"
At this moment, the surrounding atmosphere began to change. Everyone's eyes were focused on the bottle of potion exuding a beautiful color placed on the table without any disguise, and the young man who was smiling for some reason.
Carol couldn't wait to urge the dealer to deal the cards.
Just win this bottle of potion. He was able to take off the deputy head's hat and soar into the sky!
Great future and great power. As long as he wins another game, this unlucky boy can get it, why should he give up
But when Carol met Lu Qiu's pupils again, his originally excited expression suddenly froze.
The body also froze...
Several cards that should not appear on the card table at this time fell from the sleeves of Carol's clothes.
Then... a scene that made everyone fearful happened.
A fanatical and sickly smile appeared on Carol's face, he opened his mouth suddenly, and bit off his tongue forcefully!
blood splattered...
A terrified scream sounded at this moment.
"This is the real showhand."
Lu Qiu grabbed the card from the croupier and threw it on the table...
It is a card that does not belong to this game... a joker card.
A clown stabs himself with a sword in his hand. Half of it is a bright smile, and behind the big smile is a hideous face of fear...
This face is so similar to Carol's expression now.
After throwing down the joke card, Lu Qiu passed through the shocked crowd and left the underground casino without taking anything with him.
Then... the order began to become chaotic, and people began to fight for the potion on the table that no longer belonged to its owner...
Potions that can make them stronger...
... ...
In fact, this underground casino. Except for being built underground, the rest is completely different from the underground that Lu Qiu had imagined, the dark atmosphere.
It's just that after walking out of the magnificent building, it was a gloomy alley...
Lu Qiu walked straight to the deepest part of the alley, looking where there are few people, the dirty and damp alley finally came to an end...
Lu Qiu looked at the sky covered by the surrounding buildings. He felt footsteps behind him.
"It's been so long, don't you plan to come out? Little mice?"
Lu Qiu turned around, his scarlet pupils were clearly visible in the darkness of the alley. As a vampire, Lu Qiu could clearly see every corner in the alley.
About seventeen or eighteen people. Holding various weapons in his hands, they were stained with dark red blood. It looked like a murder weapon.
Their attire does not belong to the casino, but to this dirty alley.
Likewise, they do the same dirty work as this alley.
"Boy, hand over the divine potion! I can consider letting you live!"
This group of guys was organized temporarily with only one purpose. Lu Qiu doesn't know who their employer is...
But in any case, their purpose is simple...
Killing and getting more...
No matter how you look at Lu Qiu's appearance, he is too easy to bully. With his slender body, sickly fair skin, and a face that would almost make any young noble woman slap him, his fighting strength is no more than five.
But the group of guys in front of Lu Qiu, the strongest visual inspection of the fortieth floor of the tower at the top, this can also be done by a chief guard in the central capital...
It's just that they chose the dark side, and when they fall into the dark, they can only live by following the rules of the dark side.
"This is really scary." Lu Qiu took out a candy without haste, and tore open the package... The sound of the package being torn sounded like a mockery to their ears.
"If not, you will die!"
Human life is not worth a single gold coin in their hands.
This group of people approached Lu Qiu aggressively...
It's just that when Lu Qiu took out a glass bottle full of dark red milk, they all stopped in their tracks as if possessed, staring closely at the shaking bottle of milk in Lu Qiu's hand...
"Divine potion...? Let yourself have more power of gods...become more...powerful...ah. It seems that the little guy's promotion is very good."
Lu Qiu said to himself, when those people saw that Lu Qiu still had this bottle of potion, their brains suddenly boiled, and their IQs continued to decline.
"Yes, the kid is that one, leave it to me, and I can spare you!"
"No, leave it to me!"
These people scrambled and ran towards Lu Qiu, wanting to hold the bottle of potion that represented power in their hands.
The corner of Lu Qiu's mouth curled up slightly, and with a slight throw of his hand, the bottle of magic potion flew into the sky and fell towards the ground behind the group of people.
One of the people standing at the back saw the glass bottle that was about to fall, and immediately threw himself on the ground, grabbed it and laughed wildly.
"I got it!" He held the bottle of potion that could give him great strength in his hand...
But suddenly found a sword piercing his body! Blood gushed out from his body.
"Damn it, it's mine!" Another person who was supposed to be an accomplice pointed at the guy without hesitation and drew out his sword. After killing him without a trace of mercy, he grabbed the potion and held it tightly in his hand.
They have forgotten what employment is.
Now, they start fighting just to get their own power!
The desire to become stronger made them let go of many things that belong to human beings...
"Go away!"
"court death!"
In the alley, there was chaos.
Lu Qiu leaned against the end of the alley, his scarlet eyes gleamed, and looked at the group of people who were fighting each other with pity.
Just added a little hormone.
Between Lu Qiu's five fingers, a scarlet thread connects them.
The guy who wanted to fight for the potion in the first place became Lu Qiu's puppet early on.
It's just his words and deeds that completely detonated the desires of these human beings! Death has nothing to do with morality. If you become stronger, you can have more money, beauty, and status. This is something that all human beings will pursue, and they swung their butcher knives at their own kind just for this!
In just a moment, the battle came to an end.
"My...power...my...power" The only two people who survived fell to the ground, covered in blood, even the potion exuding a beautiful color was right in front of him, and he stretched out his hand, exhausting the last bit of strength in his body, wanting to hold it in his hand.
But the strongest among the group of guys survived the fight after all.
"Die to me!" The guy stepped on the hand of the man who fell on the ground, the knife raised and fell, and the head rolled down.
The alley was already stained with blood, and the final winner picked up the bottle of beautiful medicine and laughed...
Under Lu Qiu's pitiful eyes, this human drank the power he gained from killing dozens of people!
He really felt a destructive force filling his whole body! There is an uncanny strength, but... but there seems to be something in the body that wants to...
Rush out…
The demon that has been hiding inside him...
At this moment, it rushed out of his body!
"Ugh!"
He let out a low growl that didn't belong to humans, and in the next second, his body began to deform, changing from a human to a bug!
After this ugly creature was born in this world, it hungryly ate the corpses of the surrounding humans.
"This is a gift from your gods." Lu Qiu finally bit the candy in his mouth, and his figure disappeared into the alley: "You have to be grateful..."
In the central capital, from now on, the same scene will continue to be staged.
The order of this world will eventually be overwhelmed by human desires.
After all, desire is the most powerful force in human beings.
