Chapter 1020: Chapter 62: Tens of Millions in Assets_3
The purple crystal ball, under Ah Dai’s control, smoothly landed on the unique mark of thirty-six, and Ah Dai and his friends successfully won another two million five hundred thousand Gold Coins. The banker’s face changed, and he found an excuse to leave. Ah Dai couldn’t help but feel amused, conveyed a message to Yan Shi, telling him to stop after winning ten million Gold Coins. He had no real concept of money; rescuing the people of the Elf Clan was all that mattered. Yan Shi understood that they shouldn’t overdo it and nodded in agreement.
This time, the person who came back with the banker was not Jin Bo but an old man around sixty years old. His eyes constantly flickered with cunning light, yet he politely said, "Sorry, the banker is feeling a little unwell, so I will take his place temporarily. Please place your bets."
Yan Shi smiled slightly, took out chips worth two hundred thousand Gold Coins, and still placed them on the unique thirty-six mark. The old man said nothing and quickly spun the roulette. Ah Dai watched the man intently, clearly seeing a red glow surge up from under the crystal roulette, enveloping it within. Ah Dai was shocked, knowing the old man was using a similar method as his, only protecting the roulette instead. Even in a fair bet, the chances of it landing on the unique mark were very slim. Ah Dai didn’t dare to be negligent and, unable to hide his strength any longer, a faint yellow aura rose from beneath the roulette, shooting up sharply like a razor-sharp blade. In the roulette, the red and yellow auras tangled and flickered continuously, marking the first time Ah Dai had encountered an opponent like this. He could clearly feel the old man’s Red Battle Aura was sticky. Although it couldn’t block the breakthrough of the aura, it clung persistently around Ah Dai’s aura, impacting him anytime he tried to control the purple crystal ball, making it impossible for Ah Dai to grasp it. Desperate, Ah Dai added two more points of strength, attempting to disperse the old man’s Red Battle Aura. The old man’s face changed, and sweat appeared on his forehead, clearly putting forth his full effort. Just then, a dark green light surged from below the roulette. Ah Dai turned to look and saw Bing, who had approached unnoticed; the dark green aura was clearly emitted by her. As it rose rapidly, it entangled with Ah Dai’s predominating aura. Although it couldn’t block it, it succeeded in causing interference. The entanglement of the red, yellow, and dark green auras made the crystal roulette emit dazzling colors. The movement of the roulette gradually slowed, and it seemed the purple crystal ball was about to drop. Ah Dai dared not summon more Battle Aura, fully aware that the overwhelming energy, if further increased, might destroy the precious crystal roulette. Yan Shi noticed the same issue and held back Yan Li from intervening.
An idea flashed in Ah Dai’s mind, cursing himself for forgetting the versatile nature of his aura. Suddenly, the yellow aura dispersed around him, leaving the central space to the red and green auras. Bing and the old man were both delighted, thinking Ah Dai had given up, with the purple crystal ball nearly stopping at the fifty-some mark. Then suddenly, from all directions, the yellow aura rushed in, enveloping the red and green auras instantly like a giant net. Both the old man and Bing were greatly alarmed and struggled fiercely, but their power was much weaker than Ah Dai’s. Despite their efforts, they couldn’t escape Ah Dai’s control. A faint smile appeared on Ah Dai’s face. From the net enveloping both colors of energy, a strand of Battle Aura gently touched the purple crystal ball, steering it smoothly into the thirty-six position. The roulette stopped, and Ah Dai withdrew his Battle Aura. Bing and the old man continued to pant heavily, their faces filled with astonishment, clearly unable to believe that Ah Dai could control his Battle Aura with such precision and ease.
Yan Shi collected the chips worth five million Gold Coins from the old man, smiled slightly, and said to Ah Dai, "Brother, that’s enough for now, let’s take a break."
The recent contest hadn’t drained much of Ah Dai’s True Qi. He smiled and said, "Sure! Let’s grab something to eat." He turned and glanced at Bing, whose face was as still as water, and said, "Let’s rest for a while. You must be very tired." Indeed, Bing had struggled significantly during her confrontation with Ah Dai, her Battle Aura greatly depleted, her chest heaving rapidly, she didn’t reply to Ah Dai’s words.
The trio headed to the resting area in the Noble Hall and settled onto the comfortable genuine leather sofas, gazing at the pile of chips in front of them. Yan Li laughed and said, "I never thought we’d become millionaires so quickly. No wonder so many people are willing to gamble. It really can make you rich overnight!"
Yan Shi closed his eyes and said, "Let’s rest for a while first. There’s still an exciting event coming tonight."
Ah Dai looked at Bing sitting beside him and conveyed to her, "Your power is very strong! Why are you working as a maid here? This is not a good place, you know!"
Bing glared at Ah Dai and leaned back in the sofa without responding. Two other maidens in white brought over fruit, snacks, and some drinks. They saw Bing comfortably seated next to Ah Dai, their expressions revealing worry, but they seemed to fear something and said nothing, merely standing quietly on the side. Yan Shi inwardly praised the high quality of the maids here; unless solicited by the guests, they did not impose themselves. Yan Li had wanted to get cozy with the beautiful maid, but under Yan Shi’s stern gaze, he reluctantly backed off.
