Julius heard the surrounding discussions, and smirked arrogantly. "I didn't want to be petty with a newcomer. But nowadays, some youngsters are too cocky. If you don't put them in their place, they forget where they belong!"Wesley chuckled. "Exactly! They should know their place and act accordingly. This is the price of overestimating oneself. Give him a bloody lesson he won't forget!""Five hundred million is enough for you to live for ten lives without lifting a finger! Hahaha!"Frederick shot them a sideways glance. "I haven't even revealed my tiles yet, but you two are already making a racket? Disgusting! You're irritating! Also, you're still acting cocky, huh? Isn't that what youngsters do?"Before the two could retort, Frederick revealed his tiles on the spot.In an instant, the smile on Julius's face froze.The spectators were shocked to the core. Their jaws dropped as they erupted into shouts of disbelief."That's...""Eighty!""There isn't a single big tile, but
His words were like a nuclear bomb detonating on a calm sea, causing a thousand layers of waves to rise.Everyone was shocked."Did I hear that right? He wants to take on the entire Nova Star single-handedly?""Challenging the Gambling King and Gambling Prodigy was mind-blowing enough as it is! But that was just the appetizer. His target is the entire casino!""He must be a gambling legend from out of town!"Sheldon wasn't as surprised. From the previous gambling match, he had already seen that Frederick was hiding a great potential.Frederick had waited for the right moment to deliver a fatal blow. So, it wasn't surprising that he aimed for Nova Star!The dealer stood dumbfounded, unable to utter a word. "I need to report this to our boss!"After two minutes, the lobby manager approached Frederick with a smile. "Mr. Lester, our boss heard about your recent gambling match. It was truly magnificent. He specifically asked me to give you three hundred million in cash as a farewell
After hesitating for just half a second, she instantly realized what she was thinking and scoffed. "Nonsense! That jerk went on a date! What danger could he be in? Do I need to worry about him? Besides, what is he to me? He's just a fake husband! Why should I care about his well-being?"Though she said this, Jennifer pondered for a moment. "But after all, he's still my subordinate. I do have an obligation to care about the condition of my employees."-At Nova Star, Frederick rejected Jennifer's incoming call.Why did the ice queen suddenly call him? How weird! He didn't want any distractions right before the big battle. So, he decided to call her back later.Three minutes later, a middle-aged man arrived. He had a cigar in his mouth and was wearing a mink coat. A large group of men in black surrounded him as they arrived in a flurry."Hello, Mr. Lester. I'm Lucas Campbell, owner of Nova Star," Lucas said. "This is a check for five hundred million. You also have my respec
As soon as Frederick finished speaking, the whole place seemed to explode with tension.Simon's lips twitched. His eyes were filled with contempt, and he ground his teeth audibly. "I want your head as the wager. If I win, I'll mount your skull on my toilet seat!"Frederick shrugged nonchalantly. "You can turn my skull to dust for all I care. After all, dreams are limitless!"Simon was furious. But before he could erupt, Lucas interrupted, "Simon, stop wasting your breath. As hosts, we set the rules for this gamble. Let's keep it simple. We'll play Betting on Dice! Whoever rolls the smallest number wins!"At this, Simon instantly cooled down. He sneered. "Fine! Let's make it quick. I can't wait to rip his head off!""Not so fast!" Despite claiming neutrality, Sheldon couldn't help but give Frederick a warning. "Frederick, I won't intervene. But I must remind you, Simon's skills are extraordinary, especially with dice. He can conjure any combination at will. Betting on this ga
"Yes, sir!"The backstage technicians entered a string of code, and Frederick's three ones instantly transformed into two fives and a six. With that done, Lucas lifted his head with a confident smile."Alright, now let's have both sides reveal their dice numbers. Mr. Lester, as the challenger, you go first!"In an instant, all eyes were on Frederick. The crowd eagerly anticipated what surprises this mysterious gambling legend might bring."Sure, I'll go first."Frederick calmly lifted the lid of his cup, revealing the result that shocked everyone."Five, five, six!"The crowd erupted into disbelief. No one expected this outcome."I thought it would be at least three twos or lower!""Who would've thought it would be the second highest combination?""Tsk! What kind of mysterious gambling legend is this? Seems like it was all just empty boasting! Him beating the Gambling Prodigy was just a fluke!""He's in for trouble now! Nova Star won't let him leave here alive!"Seeing th
This scene sent shockwaves through the hearts of everyone present, leaving them reeling.Frederick stared straight at Lucas with a sharp gaze. "Didn't I already say? Anything is possible at the gambling table. And now, you're the loser!"Meanwhile, Lucas was petrified. He shouted in disbelief, "How is this possible?! I clearly saw two twos and one one!"As he spoke, Sheldon stood up angrily. He thundered, "Lucas, you're showing your true colors now, huh? And you still dare to say you didn't cheat!"Lucas glared at Frederick accusingly. "You did this! It must have been you!"Frederick chuckled. "Evil begets evil. Did you think I couldn't see what you did behind the scenes? But then I thought, if I exposed your cheating directly, you wouldn't admit it. So I chose another way. I wanted you to know that compared to your tricks, I'm far superior!"The moment Simon revealed the dice, Frederick used his powerful inner aura to manipulate the dice into three sixes. His aura manipulation w
Sheldon was stunned. "You're actually a deputy head of an ancient family?!"Lucas grinned wickedly. "That's all ancient history now. Twenty years ago, when the old family head passed away, I lost the power struggle in my family and was forced to leave. "But I had a stroke of luck elsewhere. Unexpectedly, I ascended into a Sovereign Grandmaster! Also, I heard that the Campbells were recently wiped out because they offended some big shot."All of this just proves that the heavens favor me, and that you can't beat me!"As Lucas spoke, his inner aura exploded outwards. The pressure made even Sheldon retreat."He's so strong! How could he..." Sheldon was astonished. "I never expected a small city to be hiding such great talents!""As long as I can hold you back for a few minutes, my men will turn that kid into minced meat! In Nova Star, I'm invincible!" Lucas smirked arrogantly, his nostrils flaring.But just as he finished speaking, screams echoed one after another. Bodies flew
"It was because of me," Frederick said, each word heavy with weight. "The Campbells, all two thousand of them, from the eldest to the youngest… I didn't spare a single one!"Upon hearing this news, Lucas's mind went blank. His whole body tingled with shock."Our family was wiped out because of you..."His eyes widened, and he felt a suffocating sensation enveloping his entire being.The Great Four Warrior Clans were a mysterious force in Mirage City. Apart from a few elites, hardly anyone knew about the annihilation of the Campbell family. Yet this man was not only aware of it, but was also speaking about it so matter-of-factly!If it were someone else, Lucas might have doubted it. But the impact Frederick had on him today was just too much.Lucas fell into silence for five seconds, as if his brain had momentarily shut down.Then, he made a move that shocked everyone.He raised his hand, and smashed his own skull on the spot. Blood splattered everywhere, and he fell dead to t
