This Lich Needs More Money

Chapter 219 Harvey’s Mistake

 The next day, Harvey and Jagged Knife appeared in the tavern again.

 Compared with yesterday, the gauze on Harvey's face has been taken off, leaving only a few bruises on his face, which looks much better.

 The dealer today has also changed, from a drow to a lizardman.

This lizard man probably didn't know Harvey, so when he saw Harvey sitting down, he just said a polite welcome.

Just a few minutes later, the lizard croupier had to stare at Harvey.

This young mage won seven times in a row, winning from one gold coin to more than a hundred gold coins.

 Every time, he bought all the big ones, and the lizard man opened seven big ones in a row.

It doesn’t matter just losing the one hundred gold coins. The key is that other gamblers also took a fancy to Harvey’s luck and followed him in betting.

 I lost seven games in a row and lost thousands of gold coins.

"Won!"

 The pile of gold coins made the lizard man dizzy. If he did it a few more times, the boss would go bankrupt.

 “Brother Mage, you are the God of Gamblers!”

This cold-blooded lizard man couldn't help but wipe his sweat. He was so panicked that he met the God of Gamblers today.

Under the urging of everyone, the lizard dealer had to open the sieve cup again. Even though he had confirmed time and time again that the one he rolled out was "small", just like the previous few times, after the sieve cup was opened, the points would always be " big".

 Once again, choose “big”.

 “Hurry up, I’m waiting to win money to retire home and buy a house!”

 …

Harvey had no expression on his face and once again threw all the gold coins on "big", and others followed suit. This added up to almost two thousand gold coins. If he lost another one, he would have lost a lot today.

No one hesitated, everyone followed Harvey and placed the gold coins they won.

　　The lizard man felt his throat go cold when he thought about losing thousands of gold coins. If the boss was unhappy, his life would not be saved.

The gamblers were impatient and quickly urged: "Hurry up! What's wrong? You can't afford to lose?!"

 The lizard croupier shook the sieve cup again, and the result was, without any surprise, another big one.

The sieve cup was shaken for a long time, and the dice inside seemed to be shaken to pieces, but the lizard croupier still didn't stop.

 “Well, since the guest said so, let’s see how much you can win.”

Harvey said arrogantly: "Why, you only allow others to lose money, but not win money?"

The gamblers gathered around the gambling table cheered loudly, eager to offer Harvey up. This time, everyone made a lot of money.

 Harvey looked at the gold coins, his expression still unchanged, and put the gold coins he won back again.

 “Yes, why don’t you open it!”

The lizard croupier's pupils turned into a line. He was clearly about to fall out with his words. Does this guy really think that people who can open a casino in Manna City are easy to mess with?

Thinking of this, the lizard man did not dare to shake the sieve cup anymore. He looked at Harvey and said, "My friend, you must give up when you see good things. Don't run out of luck when it comes, otherwise you will suffer the consequences."

"so amazing!"

 …

 Harvey watched quietly as the lizard croupier took out a large box of gold coins and paid them little by little to all the gamblers who had placed bets. His movements were very slow, as if he was trying to understand each one one by one, but in fact he was trying to delay time.

 He really can't lose anymore. If he loses again, there won't be enough gold coins here to compensate.

 Harvey counted his gold coins. These gold coins were enough for everyone in the "Jagged Knife" tribe to change their clothes.

However, Harvey did not take the money and leave, but once again bet all these gold coins on "big".

Everyone is going crazy. The gold coins have piled up into a mountain. Most people feel that they have made enough. The regular gamblers understand that the money has reached the limit. If they continue to lose money, they will have to inform the boss behind the scenes to go elsewhere. The place transferred cash.

 If you do this, you will really offend the other party.

"Why, are you giving up now, are you afraid of being troubled? You have all lost a lot here before, right? Has the banker ever been worried that you will cause trouble for him? There is no reason why you can only lose but not win when betting on this kind of thing. , do you think so? Follow me and win them to bankruptcy. This will be a good deal, and maybe you can become the hero in the bard's story."

 Harvey’s words made many people blush. Yes, there is no reason why we can only lose but not win. There are so many people here, are you still worried that they won’t lose money? !

 “I’m following!”

 “Damn it, if you fight him, you can win enough to win!”

 “A once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, only once in a lifetime!”

 “Yes, let’s have a blast with the dealer together!”

The fanatical crowd threw gold coins on the gaming table, and everyone shouted: "Big!"

"big!"

"big!"

"big!" …

There were no surprises. The dice in the sieve were still big. The lizard croupier fainted and fell to the ground. This time it was really going to be over.

 "Serrated Knife" started to feel wrong. Harvey was still playing cautiously yesterday. Why did he cause such a big fuss today? Although it felt wrong, in the current environment, she couldn't take Harvey away. She could only walk to him and said, "What if it gets too big? How do we get out?"

Harvey comforted him and said, "It's better to make a big deal. There are so many people here, and the bookmakers don't dare to default on their bills. If we make enough money once, we won't come next time."

 Although "Jagged Knife" didn't quite believe what Harvey said, she had no other choice.

There was a fuss, and the unconscious lizard croupier was carried away. News in the tavern had spread, and the tavern was packed with onlookers, all waiting for the casino owner to show up.

 Not long after, a potbellied human appeared in the tavern.

As soon as he entered the door, the man said to everyone: "Haha, thank you for your support, but today our employee had a small accident and became unwell. This is the end of today's gambling game. How about paying full compensation with your gold coins?"

That was tens of thousands of gold coins, an unimaginable amount of money for the adventurers present.

The mission to defeat the legendary sand lizard only gave you a few thousand gold coins, but now you can leave with thousands of gold coins. Who wouldn't be happy?

Seeing that everyone was about to agree, Harvey said: "Wait a minute, I haven't had enough fun yet? This boss, you have more than one dealer, please change someone else and let's continue."

The boss walked up to Harvey, stared at the young man for a while, and then said: "Mr. Master, I am Olivi, the leader of the Sea Buckthorn Mercenary Group in Manna City. You have just come to Manna City, right? If you need anything, just ask, we can make friends.”

Olevi asked himself that he had given himself a lot of face. As long as he could keep his reputation, he would be able to make back the money he lost in the casino sooner or later. Although the loss of tens of thousands of gold coins was heartbreaking, it was still within the acceptable range.

Olevi even had an idea to bring Harvey, the **** of gambling, under his command, so that the other casino operators would go bankrupt.

 So, Olivi was very polite to Harvey, hoping that the young mage could give him some face.

However, Harvey looked like he was going to make things worse and said unabashedly: "There is no reason to stop playing in a casino if you lose money. Stop talking nonsense and start quickly. I won't win a million dollars today." , I’m not ready to give up.”

As soon as this was said, others began to retreat.

They figured it out, and Harvey had the intention of using them as a shield.

 Harvey is not doing this to win money, he is clearly doing this to fight Olivi.

But Olevi is willing to pay tens of thousands of gold coins, which has satisfied the other gamblers. Considering the opponent's power in Manna City, there will be no good end if they continue to entangle.

Many people chose to give up, took the money and left the tavern. Olevi also looked unconcerned, and the group of fierce mercenaries beside him did not stop them.

People all have a herd mentality. Once the first person goes, more people will naturally follow.

Soon, there were not many people left in the tavern. All the original gamblers had left, and the only ones left were people who were watching the fun and not taking it too seriously.

 The only thing left next to Harvey was the "serrated knife", and the female orc was also a little nervous. If she really got started, she wouldn't be able to defeat so many by herself.

Although there are still a few brothers outside to support us, the number is still quite low.

At this time, Harvey said to the serrated knife embarrassedly: "I'm sorry, I made a mistake in my calculation. I thought those gambling dogs would make a fortune with me?"

Jagged Knife gritted his teeth and said, "You did it on purpose!"

She also figured it out at this time. This kid was clearly trying to use Olivi's power to escape.

Harvey was exposed and no longer covered up. He stood up directly, walked to Olivi's side, and then said to the serrated knife: "There is no way, who can't let me beat you? For the sake of the good memories of last night Come on, let me leave, and you can leave with these gold coins.”

Harvey turned to Olivi who was full of doubts and said: "I'm sorry, Mr. Olivi, I borrowed your power to get out. I guarantee that I will earn you back ten times the gold coins you lost today. And this Sir, would you please let her leave with the money she won?"

Olivi really never thought that there would be such a reversal. This kid was originally coerced into gambling, so he could be considered as one of his subordinates. If this God of Gamblers makes good use of it, he can make more money than ten casinos.

"Okay, don't worry, I, Olevi, will protect you. But this orc... hum, dares to come to my place to cause trouble, and let her leave so easily. How can I, Olevi, hang out in Manna City in the future?"

Olivi stared at the serrated knife, his originally kind eyes gradually turned fierce.

Seeing that something was wrong, Harvey quickly said: "Mr. Olevi, for my sake, let her go. She doesn't need to take away the gold coins."

Although he escaped smoothly, Harvey did not expect that things would get a little out of control. Olivi had just promised to let people leave with money, but why did he suddenly fall out?

But the serrated knife did not accept this at all. He pulled out a serrated scimitar from his waist and said to Olivi: "Come on, don't waste time! Even if I die today, I will support you!"

This female orc was extremely fierce. Before the mercenaries around Olivi could take action, she rushed towards Olivi first.

The scimitar drew a **** arc and struck Olivi's belly, as if to disembowel him.

Olivi sneered and disappeared in front of the serrated knife.

It turns out that the person who was chatting with everyone just now was just a phantom. Olivi is also a mage, and his rank is very high.

Jagged Knife was surrounded by those mercenaries, and soon fell into a hard fight, and suffered many injuries.

Harvey frowned. He didn't want her to get hurt, but it was a pity that he was too self-righteous.

 Harvey sighed. Compared with the teacher, he was really far behind. Harvey took advantage of the melee and took out a round gadget from his pocket and quietly threw it to the ground.

 A cloud of smoke came out and filled the tavern instantly.

 This is Harvey's last resort. I hope she can escape smoothly.
