Star Trace Gate

Halfway through his words, the middle-aged man suddenly realized that he had said something wrong, and looked at Lao Liu with a little fear in his eyes.

In terms of IQ, if there are four tigers in Qingliang Mansion, then Lao Liu would definitely be ranked fourth; if there are five tigers, then he would definitely be ranked fifth, and so on...

But when it comes to social skills, Lao Liu doesn't submit to anyone.

He only took one look at the middle-aged man, and then he took the initiative to say, "Damn it, I've become such a mess, being trampled on by others, who would go upstairs to tell tales? You look down on me too much."

The middle-aged man was stunned for a moment, turned his head and looked around, then said softly: "Brother, please be patient and wait for the final battle. We have a chance to turn the tables."

"Why?" asked Lao Liu.

"Haha, don't worry about it. I can only say that in the final game of "Defy the Heavens and Change Fate", as long as I can get to the last table and my opponent also places the biggest bet, then I will definitely win." The middle-aged man lowered his voice and whispered: "However, I may not have enough chips by then. If you have more chips, lend me some, and we can get revenge together, okay?"

Lao Liu blinked and looked at him: "I can lend it to you, but before you participate, you have to tell me what you got and why you are sure to win."

"That's no problem. I will definitely tell you before you go into the destiny-changing game." The middle-aged man nodded.

"Okay." Old Liu asked curiously, "Then can you tell me in advance whether you got this sure win from those gambling places?"

"Yes." The middle-aged man nodded: "I put all my chips into the game and won a very rare lucky box."

Before becoming a player, Lao Liu was already a man of the world, living a day-to-day life, so he has never lacked the courage and guts to take unconventional approaches.

After thinking for a long time, he also became interested in the gambling place that the middle-aged man mentioned.

"Brother, where is the gambling house?"

"I know of three. The 'Renjian' on Jian'an Street, the 'Rensheng' on Laimalu, and the 'Xiwang' on Dongnan Street. They are all gambling places. I heard there are more, but I haven't asked." The middle-aged man turned his head and looked at Lao Liu: "These places are all game halls, with slot machines, roulette and the like, and they are very small in scale."

"I'll go tonight too." Lao Liu replied, "I calculated that the profit from each mission is about 4,000 to 5,000 chips, and there is also a very high risk of death. It's really hard to save up 30,000 chips to participate in the fate-changing mission. Besides... those people will deduct the accommodation fee, so it's better to take out some money and give it a try."

"You are right." The middle-aged man stared at Lao Liu: "Brother, just remember, whether in the real world or in the Star Gate, the principle is the same. A man cannot be rich without external wealth, and a horse cannot be fat without night grass. If you are honest and behave like a nobody, then you will never be able to turn over a new leaf, and you will always be a leek!"

"That makes sense." Old Liu nodded heavily.

"However, the people upstairs are watching us, so it's best not to act too close or go to the same place together, otherwise we will probably be targeted." The middle-aged man reminded.

"Okay. I'll go to Life tonight."

"can."

After chatting for a while, the two closed their eyes and waited for the night to come.

……

After seven o'clock in the evening, more than 20 players, including Lao Liu, said that they did not want to participate in the "group mission" but wanted to act alone.

Wang Dong and others did not object to this request. They only said that those who were willing to join a group could do so, and those who were not willing to join a group could go to a gambling venue.

Obviously, they also knew that the gambling venue was open, but they had no intention of stopping these players.

At 7:30, Lao Liu rushed to the "Life" arcade on Laima Road. After entering the door, he was reminded by the Star Gate that he could gamble boldly in this arcade and the group of bald men would not come in to search.

Because his purpose was clear and his execution was strong, Lao Liu was the first to arrive at the Game Hall of Life.

There are no service staff here, and the surrounding environment is similar to the game halls that were once popular in the real world, with colorful and dazzling gambling machines flashing everywhere.

Lao Liu took a look around and chose a 777 slot machine that was on the southernmost side and closest to the window.

He was so familiar with this machine. He played it every day when he was in school, mainly gambling coins. Later, when he entered society, he also watched the casino for two older brothers and worked as a gambling agent.

777 slot machine, the gameplay is simple and crude. There are three vertical scroll bars in the center of its screen. Generally, each bar contains eight items, namely 7, bell, watermelon, orange, etc. After the player inserts the coin, the scroll bar starts to roll randomly. If it finally stops, the arrangement and combination of the items in the three scroll bars, including multiple rewards, will be obtained at once.

The more coins you put in, the bigger the multiplier.

However, there are no coins here, only chips, but the meaning is the same.

Old Liu stood in front of the familiar slot machine and his pupils began to focus.

He had been through the underworld and was no stranger to this kind of side business. In the real world, the odds and probabilities of this thing were all adjusted by the boss to favor himself. Ordinary gamblers might win money, but in the end, the boss would definitely make the money.

Lao Liu is a man of determination and courage, but he is not a gambler. He has seen many people lose their fortunes and their families because of this gambling.

Therefore, he believed that playing this game was mainly a matter of luck, and those who gambled endlessly would eventually end up losing money.

Lao Liu doesn't intend to engage in a tug-of-war, he just wants to give it a try. Whether it will succeed or not depends on God's will.

Before coming, he planned to play three times, investing chips in exponentially larger amounts. Once he got a return, he would turn around and leave immediately without any desire to fight.

In front of the gambling machine flashing with dazzling lights, Lao Liu let out a long breath and reached into his pocket to take out seven thousand chips. This was what he had earned with his life in the past few days.

In fact, Lao Liu's luck has been very bad these days. He opens a luck box almost every day, but the things he gets are all rubbish. Either a small amount of star source, or a small amount of chips. He even drew a "white dry" once, canceling the current task reward.

He only drew a rather "weird" item as a reward from a luck box, but he couldn't use it at the moment.

Seven thousand chips.

The first bet is one thousand.

The second bet, two thousand.

The third bet, four thousand.

With this betting method, if you win the smallest bet, you will definitely get your money back, and there will be a surplus on the chips.

The most important thing is that Lao Liu wants to win the reward from the luck box and turn his life around, and only this place can give him hope.

"Oh my God, my mother, my father, my ancestors! I, Li Biao, have never had a smooth life since I was born... I didn't cut my hair well, so I was in debt; I didn't do well in society, so I went to jail twice; now that I've become a player, I'm either thrown into prison or beaten up at the beginning of the game. Now I don't even have my dignity anymore."

"I was just thinking, we are all reincarnated once, why do I have to suffer so much?!"

"They say things change over time, so this is the time... for me to do it, right?"

"...!"

Old Liu originally just wanted to cheer himself up, but the more he repeated these words in his mind, the more excited he became.
