Seeing that Xingmo had been trying for a long time without any results, Aurora said:
"Little Saint, how about a different approach?"
"This is your mark. Why don't you come and help me take a look at it?" Xing Mo was a little unwilling.
Hearing her say this, Aurora's mouth curled up slightly:
"Don't you even suspect that this is all my conspiracy? What if I gave them these marks?"
How could you be so clever as to create such a large-scale organization... Xing Mo muttered to herself, then said:
"How could you resort to such a low-level and easily detectable method?"
"Hehe~" Aurora seemed to be very pleased, "You know me very well..."
She smoothed her wet hair and murmured in a good mood:
"Haven't you figured out that the purpose of this formation is 'absorption'? That's enough."
"Enough? You mean..."
"Let's find the source of this magic circle. Once we find the source, won't we know the purpose of its existence?"
Aurora said as she swam to the shore, climbed up, and covered her steaming body with her bathrobe.
Xing Mo's eyes lit up, but she quickly became discouraged:
"I'm afraid it's going to be very troublesome. These hot springs are probably powered by fire string steam engines. The source of the magic circle must be very close to the underground boiler room, but that area is not allowed to ordinary tourists."
"What if we're VIPs?" Aurora tilted her head.
"You mean to upgrade the bathhouse ticket to a gold ticket?" Xing Mo stepped onto the shore and put on a bathrobe. "Little ancestor, we don't have any money."
"Isn't there a gold game here? It's for making money," Aurora looked into the distance, "Let's go get some."
"Ah? Children can't gamble." Xing Mo refused directly.
"First, I'm a god. Second, I'm a grown god!" Aurora said, her fur standing on end like a kitten. "Don't underestimate me because I'm so small. Concentration is the essence. Even within my tiny head lies great wisdom!"
"Okay, okay, that's great wisdom, but do you know how to play?" Xing Mo was a little curious.
Aurora placed her hands on her hips and raised her chin.
"Just watch carefully!"
......
"Clap."
The waiter pushed open the mahogany door, and dazzling golden light shone in. Xingmo couldn't help but cover her face.
Beside her, Aurora looked like a veteran, wearing large-framed glasses with a holiday style and standing in a cool posture.
Waves of voices surged in, and in the red-carpeted hall, gamblers in bathrobes were sitting at tables, staring at the small golden statues on the tables.
"Gold Game", a simple game, is also the most commonly used means of entertainment for the people of the Empire.
The whole game is based on a toy called "Golden Totem", which is a small statue made of pure gold. Each statue has a different image, such as "Knight", "Dragon", "Goblin", "Elf", "Warship", "War Horse", etc.
This toy can be formed into teams using string magic, and the teams will automatically fight each other - each statue has the power of autonomous movement, the knight can swing a sword, and the dragon can breathe fire.
"Golden Game" is based on this rule. Before the game, the waiter will randomly distribute small statues to the contestants. Each person has a default of 5 small statues with random images.
On top of the entrance fee of 100 chips, you can get a new statuette by adding 100 chips, and the number of chips you need to get a statuette will be doubled each time thereafter.
This stage is called staking.
After the betting is completed, the gambler will use the magic wand to command his army to fight against the opponent, and the final winner will directly take away all the chips on the field.
Simple violent game.
At this moment, in the huge gaming arena, the roars of the players rose one after another:
"Charge! My knight! Crush him!"
"Let the dragon devour you!"
"Don't underestimate my goblins! Your elf lady, just wait for the worst...!"
"Sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry..."
Looking at the bizarre scene before her, Xingmo pulled Aurora's sleeve.
"How about we just leave? I feel like this isn't a place I should be at my age..."
"What are you afraid of?" Aurora said calmly, "Let's go! Let's go!"
After saying that, the little thing walked forward on its own, and Xing Mo was forced to follow.
At the exchange window, the two exchanged all of Xingmo's remaining money for a hundred chips, which made her very distressed. After all, the money included the fare for the steam railway car back to the academy...
Aurora acted like a boss. She took the small plate of chips and said calmly:
"Life is not only a disaster, but also a gamble."
Afterwards, Aurora led Xingmo around the gaming venue for a long time before finally finding a table that had just finished a game.
One of the gamblers lost all his chips, and he left the table in despair and drifted away.
Yes, it floated away, using string magic to create a gust of wind and floated away...
Looking at the empty seat, Aurora sat down without hesitation and placed her bets:
"Fight me!" she said.
The other three players looked at each other, then looked at Aurora, and said in unison:
"Little girl, go find your mother!"
"Don't you dare play?" Aurora tilted her head. "Are you afraid of losing face if you lose to a little girl?"
"You don't recognize me?" One of the gamblers took off his mask. "I'm the holder of an eighty-game winning streak. I'm the champion of this table. Until now, I've never lost."
"This is a four-player court. Kids, you should go to the two-player court." Another player said impatiently.
A four-player game means that there are four people participating in the game, and the final chip distribution is usually determined by the order of elimination.
"We can torture you all we want." Aurora said disdainfully.
The three players looked at each other again and said in unison:
"That's up to you."
At this time, the waiter began to carve, and the previous winning streak record holder obtained the "Dragon, Knight, Knight, Dragon, Dragon" camp.
A smile appeared on the corner of his mouth:
"Stable."
Xing Mo's mouth twitched. Of course this is a sure thing! Three dragons and two knights! How to fight!
Others also got combination lineups such as warships and elves, but when it came to Aurora...
"Knight, goblin, goblin, goblin, goblin..."
Looking at the five moving statues in front of Aurora, Xingmo felt desperate.
What is this? A story about four goblins and a female knight?
The other players all sneered. It was obvious that such a lineup was generally extremely unlucky.
Aurora remained calm. She glanced at the bewildered knight surrounded by four goblins and whispered:
"You have to work harder."
The Knight nodded, but still looked bewildered. After all, they were facing a dragon ship, and she only had four goblin brothers...
At this time, the waiter beside him asked:
"can we start?"
"No!" The champion slammed the table, a sinister grin on his face, "I want to increase the bet! Five more!"
The guy looked at Aurora with ill intentions, his fingers clenched and made a "clicking" sound.
"I want to let this little girl experience the dangers of the adult world."
......
5) Gold (Part 9)
Adding five chips is equivalent to paying three thousand one hundred chips.
Xing Mo converted it and found that this was equivalent to the price of a gold ticket.
This guy already has three dragons and it’s obvious that he can’t lose, but he still wants to increase the bet?
Why is that?
The next second, Xingmo's question was answered.
As the champion's five chips were revealed to be "Gnome, Elf, Dragon, Dragon, Knight", the other two gamblers could no longer sit still.
Obviously, their original lineup still had a chance to kill the champion together in a four-person melee, but with three more dragons joining the camp, that guy might be able to fight three alone now.
As a result, others had to join in the fight to get more statues, otherwise they would not be able to defeat the champion.
This is also the result that the champion wants: more chips means greater profits when winning.
On the premise that the advantages are clear, take a chance and turn a standing ticket into a private carriage!
"..."
The waiter continued carving, and soon the new statues of the two gamblers were revealed: "Elf, Dragon, Warship" and "Gnome, Goblin, Goblin" respectively.
One of them clenched his fist and cheered, while the other sighed.
After all, the second place winner can at least make back his investment, while the next two are all losers.
However, the new goblin lord was not too depressed, after all, there was a little girl at the bottom of the field.
Although she only invested a hundred chips, it was enough for her to go home crying and get spanked tonight.
Seeing that the betting phase was over, the waiter took two steps forward and raised his wand:
"Now that everyone is ready, let the 'Golden Game' begin!"
Golden light poured into the tabletop, flowing rapidly, and all the small statues began to move at once.
Suddenly, the desktop turned into a battlefield—a giant dragon roared and spewed fire into the sky, warships fired cannons into the sky, and knights rushed towards each other, swinging their swords.
In front of such a grand battle scene, Aurora's "female knight and her goblin friends" were obviously as small as five grains of sand. The goblins rushed towards the dragon on the opposite side and were quickly engulfed by dragon fire.
All the players sneered at Aurora, but she remained calm.
"Are you okay?" Xingmo whispered in Aurora's ear, of course, to prevent Aurora from suddenly overturning the table.
"It's okay," Aurora remained calm. "We have a sure win."
Above the battlefield, raging dragon flames were gushing out, tearing apart the battlefield and the army of knights. The flying dragons dominated the sky and ruled the entire battle situation.
Soon, all the figurines of the "Goblin Lord" were destroyed, and he slumped in his chair, covering his face.
Another player with a dragon was quickly defeated: his dragon killed one of the champion's dragons, and was then destroyed by the champion's other five dragons.
Of the five dragons, two were shot down by cannons and elves' bows and arrows on the battlefield, and the remaining three destroyed everything on the ground.
"I win," the ring master clapped his hands, "all the chips, take them."
He smiled at Aurora, showing off the gold between his teeth.
Aurora's lips curled up slightly, and her petite body exuded the aura of a veteran on the battlefield.
"It's not over yet," she said softly.
The champion was stunned for a moment. The next second, a figure flew out from the smoke and dust of the battlefield and stabbed at the giant dragon in the sky.
——She’s a female knight under Aurora’s command!
She pierced the dragon's throat with a sword. Although she did not kill it, she rolled over onto its back and grabbed the horns on its head.
The dragon spewed out flames in pain, and the female knight then broke it with force, and the flames shot straight at the dragon next to it. The dragon was instantly burned into a skeleton, fell on the table and shattered into gold powder.
The last dragon reacted quickly. It flew towards the dragon ridden by the female knight, opened its huge mouth and bit off its throat.
The female knight jumped onto the head of the last dragon, stabbed the sword into its spine, and then ran on its back.
