Hell Game: Starting from Metropolis

"I don't want you to think, I want me to think."

Liu Zheng waved his hand, ignoring the laughter.

Can I file a complaint against it?

He then asked about cattle and horses.

"Yes, yes."

The ox and horse scratched their heads.

"Alright, you go and call your boss over."

Liu Zheng pointed to a passing waiter and shouted.

"I?"

The jellyfish-headed man pointed to himself and asked.

"Yes, go quickly, or I'll complain about you too."

Liu Zheng said earnestly.

"There's no need for that, guest. Don't forget, you'll be leaving eventually."

The dealer wore a sinister smile.

"Who the hell are you threatening?"

Before Liu Zheng could speak, Niu Ma got angry.

"Come on, let's go out and have a go right now. Whoever is afraid is a son of a mother."

It stood upright, its expanding shadow enveloping the dealer entirely.

Just because cattle and horses are subservient to Oink doesn't mean anyone can attack them.

"I'm sorry, I was too loud. How would you like to resolve this?"

A flash of anger crossed the croupier's face before he spoke.

"You said."

Niu Ma raised his chin at Liu Zheng.

"Give us both a drink, and then change the dealer."

He said.

"Okay. Best of luck to both of you in the game."

The dealer spoke stiffly, then left the betting table.

At some point, the laughter of the other gamblers also stopped.

A minute later, two glasses of whiskey were brought over by the waiter.

The new dealer has arrived; she's a succubus.

He's incredibly handsome!

Well, Liu Zheng didn't have time to look at his face.

"Handsome guy, I just started working today, please don't complain about me."

The succubus dealer gave him a flirtatious wink.

"That depends on how you deal the cards."

Liu Zheng said coldly.

"Isn't this a bad way to release it?"

The succubus dealer inserted a card into the two hemispheres and then bent down.

"You're sexually harassing me. I'll forgive you this time, but don't let it happen again."

He reached in and then took the card.

"Thanks, handsome!"

The succubus chuckled, a strange glint flashing in her eyes.

Her breasts aren't something just anyone can touch, yet this human didn't fall for it.

"Deal the cards."

Liu Zheng urged.

He doesn't have much time.

"OK."

The succubus discarded a new deck of cards and then dealt two hole cards to each person in turn.

Liu Zheng turned over his hole card and saw that it was a pair of "9s".

A plum blossom, a square.

Well, it's neither good nor bad.

It's worse than high-ranking hands like pairs of Aces, pairs of Kings, and flushes of AK or KQ, but better than unpaired or low-pair hands.

He glanced around at the other gamblers, then frowned.

In Texas Hold'em, observing your opponents' facial expressions is a very important skill.

But this technique is hard to use now, since some gamblers don't even have a face.

"You bastard, smash my face!"

Liu Zheng suddenly said.

"what?"

The cows and horses looked completely bewildered.

"Hurry up, don't you want to win money?"

"Since when did it become your place to boss me around?"

The cow and horse grumbled and kicked him in the face.

It controlled the force well; it only disfigured Liu Zheng but didn't damage his eyes or brain.

Two clumps of bloody foam spurted from his kicked-out nostrils as Liu Zheng tossed out a white chip.

"Raise the bet!"

"It's this big right from the start?"

One of the oxen and one of the horses were so intimidated that it almost stretched out its hoof to pull out the chips.

"If you have a pair of Aces, you're not that big of a deal. If you don't know how, just lie down."

Liu Zheng was not polite at all.

"Are you fucking asking for a beating?"

The oxen and horses stared wide-eyed.

"And what you're holding isn't a pair of Aces, it's clearly a pair of 9s."

???

Both the dealers and the gamblers focused their attention on them.

Are these two guys here to perform stand-up comedy or to gamble?

Do you even know how to play?

"Not with."

The kobold sitting next to Liu Zheng thought for a moment and then threw away his cards.

"Not with."

"Not with."

"Not with."

There were 6 players in total, and four of them chose to fold.

The remaining eel-headed man glanced at his trump card again and sneered at Liu Zheng.

"Do we know each other?"

He said, squinting his eyes.

The eel head didn't speak, only gave a cold laugh.

"I remember now, I almost didn't recognize you after you took off your clothes."

Liu Zheng suddenly realized.

When he delivered his first order, this guy bit off a piece of his flesh.

Today it wasn't wearing a security guard uniform; its slender eel head grew directly from its chest cavity, looking like a swaying flower arrangement.

"Your meat smells delicious."

The eel head finally spoke, his words slow and mocking.

"Thanks, you look pretty good too. Once I win your underwear, I'll swallow your dead fish head whole."

Liu Zheng said earnestly.

"Deal the cards."

He tossed a yellow chip to the succubus dealer.

"The boss is really generous."

The succubus dealer stuffed the chips into her collar and gave Liu Zheng a sweet smile.

After the first bet is placed, the next step is to deal three community cards.

One Ace of Hearts, one Five of Clubs, and one King of Hearts.

"Handsome, you should speak first."

"That's what the succubus dealer said."

"What else is there to say about three Aces, Dad?"

Liu Zheng threw out the remaining 5 white chips.

"I have an Ace, I don't believe it."

The eel-headed man stared at him for a long time before slowly speaking.

"If you don't believe me, then follow along."

Liu Zheng leaned back, his tentacles holding a wad of whiskey to his lips.

"That's enough. They have a pair of Aces, and you have a pair of 9s. What's the point of following them?"

The oxen and horses offered their advice.

"If you sabotage me again, I'll go all in right now."

Liu Zheng glared at it.

"you dare!"

The cattle and horses pounced on the ground and rose up.

"It holds the sky in its hands."

He opened his mouth to shout.

"Okay, okay, three A's it is."

The cattle and horses gagged him.

"Bah bah bah."

Liu Zheng vomited violently.
