An invincible journey starting from a different race

"In short, whoever has the bigger cards can break the other party's cards. This is what we call offensive and defensive cards."

...Isn't this really a top-bottom match?

"The detailed combination method is here." Luo Weiya took out another introduction and threw it to Aesop, "You can take a look."

So Aesop picked up the introduction book and began to read it carefully.

It took less than a minute to finish reading the entire introduction book. The speed was so fast that Luo Weiya, who was relaxing and drinking water, almost spit out the water in her mouth.

"Have you finished reading it?" Luo Weiya was very surprised.

"Yes." Aesop nodded, "It's really quite simple."

"...Haha, having confidence is a good thing." Luo Weiya smiled again. "So, shall we get started?"

"Well, we can start."

"Do you want to try it twice first? It's not formal, but it will help you get familiar with it?" Luo Weiya asked.

This can be regarded as Luo Weiya's routine. When trying, let the opponent win, boost the opponent's confidence, and then take him away in one wave when the game officially starts.

But now it seems that there is no need to do so much. This guy is obviously very confident in himself.

"Very good." Luo Weiya snapped her fingers, "Then let's get started."

Lily immediately ran over to deal the cards.

Just as she finished shuffling and cutting the cards and was about to deal them out, Jer suddenly raised his hand: "Wait."

Several people turned to look at him.

Jer said, "Give me the cards. I want to shuffle them too."

Lily raised her eyebrows: "Are you questioning my professionalism or my professional ethics?"

"Of course... everyone is questioning it," Jer said. "Don't underestimate my experience. I let you do something before, but I can't let you do it now. You and that guy are on the same side, who knows what you will do? Of course, it's fair to wash and cut both sides together."

Lily pursed her lips and glanced at Luo Weiya, who nodded slightly, indicating that she didn't care.

So Lily reluctantly handed the cards to Jer and asked Jer to shuffle and cut them.

Luo Weiya didn't really care. Whether it was Lily or Jer shuffling the cards, she could always use star magic to improve her luck. While she couldn't target specific cards, improving her luck was already a significant advantage in this kind of game.

And when Jer dealt the cards, she just took a glance and felt more confident.

Her two hole cards are the Dog Beastman card and the Human Warrior card.

Not particularly big cards, but… they’re all men.

Unlike the orthodox rules of adventure cards, attack and defense cards focus on one thing: whoever gets pushed loses. In most cases, it's the man who pushes the woman. Therefore, in attack and defense cards, male cards are far more powerful than female cards. The two cards she currently holds are male cards, giving her a huge advantage.

But Luo Weiya didn't act overly confident. Instead, she frowned slightly, as if she wasn't satisfied with this hand, but also seemed reluctant to give it up. After biting her lip and struggling for a moment, she nodded gently: "I feel... I can give it a try. Although it's not a particularly good hand."

As Luo Weiya spoke, she raised her head and looked at Aesop.

What do you think? You were fooled by my acting skills, placed all your bets, and finally got defeated by me!

Luo Weiya looked at Aesop, and then found that Aesop was also looking at her, but not at her face, but... a little bit below.

That is the human heart.

Luo Weiya's smile suddenly froze.

...Hey, hey, hey, big brother, this is at the gambling table, can you please be serious?

You make me look stupid by trying so hard to make an expression.

"Ms. Luo Weiya asked for the cards." Seeing that Aesop hadn't spoken for a long time, Lily turned her head, looked at him, and asked, "Do you want them? If not, you can discard them, but you have to give the bet to Miss Luo Weiya... By the way, you haven't looked at the cards yet."

Aesop said "Oh" and said "I'll see now", then picked up the covered card.

Luo Weiya narrowed her eyes slightly.

That's it.

Use the power of the stars to see into this guy's heart!

Luo Weiya's star magic could indeed directly divine Aesop's cards, but that was more troublesome, requiring more preparation and expending more mana. So Luo Weiya would first use another method, which was to see into the other person's heart.

It's not that I can see through everything completely, but I can read the most intense thoughts in the other person's mind at a certain moment.

Although excellent poker players will not show their emotions on their faces, it does not mean that they are calm inside.

For example, a player who gets a good hand will be overjoyed in his heart, "Oh my god! The Nightmare Overlord!"

Players who get bad cards will curse in their hearts, "Oh shit! Why is it another halfling!"

Poker players generally couldn't avoid this kind of inner turmoil, nor did they deliberately guard against it. Only those veteran poker players who had seen too many storms and could always maintain inner peace would be difficult for Luo Weiya to read.

But the Aesop in front of him was obviously not such a veteran player.

Luo Weiya could already feel the waves in Aesop's heart.

Come on! Let me see what cards you have in mind!

Luo Weiya read it effortlessly.

And then...his eyes widened, with disbelief written all over his face.

Damn, why is his mind full of Naizi? !

The person who was punched in the face was you.

This guy...what is he doing!

Luo Weiya was about to faint.

She just wanted to find out what Aesop's trump card was, but she didn't expect that there was only human nature in his head.

Really, only naizi.

That all-encompassing, all-encompassing human heart. Luo Weiya wandered around Aesop's thoughts for a long time, turning various angles, wanting to see what else was in his mind, but all she could see was the human heart from various angles, and it was her own!

So, for the first time in her life, Luo Weiya was dazzled by her own human heart... in someone else's mind.

What the hell is this? This guy doesn’t play by the rules.

Could it be that he has seen through me and I can see through his thoughts, so he deliberately used this method to counter me?

Luo Weiya subconsciously glanced at Aesop, and then found that Aesop was still looking at her... human heart, very persistent, not like acting at all.

This guy, it doesn't make sense. How could my star magic be seen through so easily by a nobody like him?

The probability of him seeing through me is not as high as the probability that his mind is really full of Nai Zi.

But that doesn't make any sense.

Luo Weiya's ability to see through thoughts was limited; she could only capture them through the power of the stars when the opponent was experiencing significant emotional fluctuations. If the opponent was calm and composed, she wouldn't stand a chance. Therefore, she usually only caught the opponent looking at their cards, when they were experiencing emotional fluctuations, to capture their thoughts.

But the problem is, this guy's attention is not on the cards at all, so how could he have such emotional fluctuations?

Could it be that... since the moment this guy saw me, there has been constant fluctuations and continuous climaxes in his head?

...No way, are there really such pure perverts in this world?

In order to verify this, Luo Weiya deliberately waited for a while. According to common sense, those gamblers would only have emotional fluctuations during the short ten seconds when they looked at the cards, and then they would stabilize, and Luo Weiya would not be able to catch it.

So she deliberately waited for a while before trying to capture Aesop's mind again.

Then I caught it again, and my mind was still filled with pears.

Fuck, this guy really is having a constant stream of intracranial orgasms!

What the hell is this genius!

No, no, I can’t stay in his thoughts anymore, otherwise I will be dizzy.

It was also the first time in her life that Luo Weiya felt dizzy and wanted to vomit when she kept looking at the human heart.

"What's wrong, Big Sister?" Lily noticed that Luo Weiya didn't look well and asked with concern, "Are you okay?"

Luo Weiya took several deep breaths before gradually coming to her senses.

You asked me if I was okay, what should I say?

Do I have to tell you that I am disgusted by my own pears?

There was no other way. Capturing thoughts came at a price, and that was that her own mental strength would also be damaged. So normally, Luo Weiya would only capture it for a moment, and would immediately take it back after knowing what cards the other party had. But this time, she was tricked and was really dizzy by her own trick.

This guy...is not simple from every angle.

Song Luoweiya warned herself in her heart to be more serious, although the reason for being serious was indeed a bit ridiculous.

"Hey, hey, hey, Aesop, do you want to do it or not?" Stank saw that Aesop hadn't moved for a long time, so he lowered his voice and said, "If the cards don't work, just throw them away. Although the attack and defense cards are simple, if you lose from the top, you will lose faster and more than the conventional way."

Aesop came back to his senses, said "Oh", and then said "I want it", and then covered the cards in his hand.

Stank was a little puzzled: "Why do you seem a little absent-minded?"

"There's no way." Aesop said, "Her heart is really attractive to me."

"...Fuck, don't focus on that at this time! Wait until we win!"

Aesop thought about it, but still didn't explain.

In reality, he was no longer the same little white boy who couldn't move at the sight of snow-white things. Now, if he couldn't say his heart was as calm as water, then at least... his emotions weren't as turbulent as before. However, Luo Weiya's heart did hold a special attraction for him, so Aesop was curious and observed her for a while longer.

"Okay, since you've both decided to take it, I'll deal the cards." Seeing that both of them wanted it, Lily continued, "By the way, if you want to raise the bet, you can do it now..."

Before Lily finished speaking, Aesop said "Oh" again, and then said, "Then I'll go all in."

Then he pushed all the chips on the table out.

In an instant, everyone present fell silent.

After a while, Stank suddenly exploded: "What the hell are you doing?!"

Jer couldn't hold it in any longer: "Why are you going all in?!"

Aesop turned his head to look at the two of them and explained, "Because I want to fight faster."

"That's not the way to play fast! Are you so impatient to lose all your chips?" Stank was really angry and immediately lectured Aesop, "People like you will definitely lose everything in the casino!"

Aesop tilted his head: "Like you did just now?"

Stank stopped talking immediately.

There was no way. How could he refute this? After all, the ones who just lost and were left with only their underwear were... him and Jer.

Aesop's move of going all in after seeing the cards left Lily and Luo Weiya dumbfounded.

Lily had never seen such a play. While the more experienced Luo Weiya had seen it, it wasn't often. And those were often based on the opponent's hand being so good that they could win half the game just by looking at their hole cards. Even then, that was rare. After all, the combination of two hole cards, no matter how great, couldn't be that significant. The remaining five cards were the most crucial. Therefore, those who went all-in at the start generally suffered the most losses.

And the guy in front of her actually did the same... This really made Luo Weiya feel a little puzzled.

Is this person really stupid, or is he just pretending to be stupid?

"Are you sure you want to bet everything on this?" Lily was stunned for a moment before asking Aesop, "Are you really going to bet everything on this?"

Aesop nodded, and then asked, "Isn't it possible?"

"Uh, sure, sure..." Lily's expression was odd. She felt like she and Aesop were no longer on the same level. She could only turn and look at Luo Weiya. "Well... Big Sister, he's betting everything. Do you want to join in?"

This……

Luo Weiya was still trying hard to maintain her master's aura, although she was really feeling a little overwhelmed.

There was no way. She didn't know Aesop's cards yet, and Aesop suddenly went all in, which made her a little overwhelmed.

Her control over star magic had never been so strong, and she couldn't use it continuously. After reading the other person's mind, it was difficult to immediately divine their cards, so she had to rest for a while.

When facing ordinary opponents, even if she fails to read their minds the first time, she can take it slow with the opponent, round after round, deliberately delaying the time, and wait for her body to recover before doing divination.

So Aesop's current operation really stumped her. She couldn't just dawdle for a long time and force herself to wait for her body to recover, right?

But if she folded her cards directly, it would seem that she was a coward and had already lost in terms of momentum.

This won't do. Luo Weiya has been working in casinos for so many years and still cares about her image.

There is no other way but to take a risk and force a star divination before my body recovers to see what his trump card is!

"Hmm... let me think about this..."

Luo Weiya deliberately slowed down her speech and pretended to be thinking, but at the same time she called upon the power of the stars again.
