Chapter 1233

Author: Wendell Mayhew
Sebastian had asked because on the way there, Zane had told him about the rules in the club regarding the gemstone betting arena.

Most of the players in underground gemstone betting were in the jewelry industry, so even if they got a full emerald or an AAA quality emerald, no one wanted to take it home with them.

They would just take cash instead, and it would be at twice the market price.

That meant that if players got a geode that turned out to be a full emerald, it was the same as if they made the geodes into pretty trinkets and sold them to the club at market price.

The club seemed to be taking a huge risk, but since the club had opened, there were very few people who managed to get any emeralds at all, let alone a full emerald.

Additionally, they sold the geodes for twice the price outside, so naturally, they would have to bear the risk for the corresponding profit.

Therefore, the entire thing was more unfair to the players.

If Sebastian's geode turned out to be a fu

    "Seb, the money is in!" Zane shouted excitedly. "Oh, you're very lucky, Mr. Ballard. You earned 30 million as soon as you tried." Gunther was still smiling, but he looked very pained.As soon as the money was transferred, Hunter had also received a text. 30 million! It wasn't a small amount at all. Hunter had come to Sunway, Sartvale without his family's knowledge so that he could get things started with his business.Although he had some money, he only had around 200 million or so. The club was making money, but the investment required to start it up had also been huge. He only had less than 200 million left in his account!In the blink of an eye, 30 million had been taken by someone else. He felt as if his heart was bleeding. "Call Gunther back!" Hunter yelled angrily. He pushed the young model aside and grabbed a towel to wrap around his waist. "I've always been lucky," Sebastian said as he walked off the cement podium. He picked up a glass of water and took a sip. "M

    Gareth was renowned in all six of the southeast states as a gemstone gambler, and he rarely met anyone who was a match for him. Many jewelry companies in the country hired him as a consultant. However, he had made too many enemies in the gemstone betting industry, so he no longer dared to show his face. After that, Gunther had introduced him to Hunter. Gareth was delighted to meet an ally as powerful as Hunter was, and the two of them had hit it off at once. Gemstone betting was about luck and experience. Both the players and the house itself were gambling. That was because no one could see what it was like inside a geode. Even suppliers didn't know which batch of stock would produce a full emerald and which batch were mere stones. That was why the Glam Club had come up with an even more thrilling way to bet on gemstones. They had to earn back the huge amounts of money that players sometimes won. The way they did it was to have one person representing the club bet on gemsto

    Compared to Rose, the women that Gareth had toyed with in the past were all ugly country bumpkins who didn't even deserve a mention. That was why he was willing to lose tens of millions just to have a taste of her. "Alright!" Hunter gritted his teeth and said, "However, I get to have her for the first week." Hunter rubbed his palms together, his eyes alight with desire as he stared at the screen. "No! One day each!" Gareth negotiated shamelessly. They were acting as if Rose was already theirs. Beside them, Gunther felt his temper flaring. He should have been the one sharing with Hunter, but now that old man Gareth had popped up out of nowhere. He was almost 60! How could he be dominating women all day? Wasn't he afraid of dropping dead?Hunter clenched his teeth and said, "Deal! However, I get to have her on the first day."Gareth was dissatisfied, but when he saw the menacing look in Hunter's eyes, he backed down. "Make the arrangements, Gunther." Hunter waved a hand a

    When Gunther saw that Sebastian had taken the bait, he was delighted. He immediately smiled ingratiatingly and said, "It's very simple. You need to win three out of five, so even if you get a full emerald while the other four are duds, you would still lose."Gunther paused for a moment and continued, "That means that what you'll have to pay is the total amount that the two of you bet multiplied by three." "What if I win?" Sebastian asked, smiling. "Of course, your winnings will be calculated in the same way. We don't cheat," Gunther smiled. "Let's start then. What are you waiting for?" Sebastian urged eagerly. He had come to make Hunter lose his money, after all. The 30 million he had just won was just an appetizer. The true show had yet to begin. Sebastian had been wondering how to win money faster, but Gunther had just delivered himself up on a platter. How could Sebastian give up such a great opportunity?"Alright! Mr. Ballard is as forthright as expected!" Gunther's exp

    "I'm betting on Mr. Yadden!""Same here!""I bet that Sebastian will win!"Zane's brow was tightly furrowed as he weighed his bank card in his hand. He was hesitant. "What are you thinking about? Even if you don't place a bet, that bit of money won't be enough to pay for the entire thing." Gavin pushed Zane gently. Zane looked back at Gavin and said, "At least there's still 30 million! If I place the bet and lose it too, we won't be able to get out of here.""Trust him. You won't be mistaken." Rose looked firmly at Zane as she spoke. "Alright. Either we get rich overnight, or—""Shut up and don't jinx it!" Gavin said as he snatched the card away from Zane. He slammed it down on Sebastian's table and said, "I bet 30 million that Mr. Ballard will win!" "Wow! Things are getting insane today! People are betting in tens of millions!""There's going to be a good show tonight!" "Where did this Ballard spring from?""Who cares about that? Do you think he'll be a match for Gare

    Hunter grabbed a teacup and smashed it into pieces. He pointed at Gareth on the screen and yelled, "You useless loser!" "Mr. Ballard will go first for the next round," Gunther said, looking very grim. Sebastian chuckled and pointed at a geode, which was about a foot in diameter. "I'll go with this one." The staff member didn't dare to dismiss Sebastian again. He looked serious as he carried the geode over to the geode slicer. Once it was open, it was revealed to be a half-emerald!Gareth broke out into a cold sweat. A half-emerald! If the geode he chose wasn't as good as Sebastian's, he would have lost twice in a row. That would make the third round the most critical round for him. At that thought, Gareth stood up and clasped his hands behind his back. He looked serious as he walked thrice around the geodes. "Things aren't looking good for Mr. Yadden.""That's right. If he loses this round, the next round will be hard.""This young man is really something else." Only t

    If the news spread, he would bring embarrassment to the Sloane family's name!The status of his own family was declining rapidly as it was. If he embarrassed them any further, they would be one step closer to getting kicked out. "Call Ivan Galledin at once and tell him to send someone over to stop an illegal gambling operation!" Hunter suddenly thought of the perfect plan.If the state police department sent someone to arrest them, it would solve his problem without embarrassing the Sloane family's name. It would also get Sebastian arrested. If so, Hunter would be able to do as he pleased with him. "Good idea!" Gunther immediately said flatteringly, "You're so much smarter than us, Mr. Sloane. Why didn't I think of such a good plan?"Hunter spat at him and said angrily, "There's no thought in that dumb brain of yours because all you think about are women's hips!""Yes, yes! I'll call Ivan at once!" Gunther said. He pulled out his phone and called the newly instated chief of

    About ten minutes later, Gareth and Gunther walked onto the gemstone betting podium one after the other. They both looked calm and confident."Mr. Ballard, it's your turn to go first," Gunther said to him, smiling. "I'll pick that one," Sebastian said, pointing to a mid-sized geode. Sebastian got another full emerald, while Gareth got nothing. There was not a speck of green to be seen in the entire geode."You win, young man! Congratulations!" Gareth stood up, chuckling. He looked in the direction of the entrance.Gunther laughed menacingly and got up. He clasped his hands behind his back, as if he was waiting for something. Minutes and seconds ticked by. However, instead of Ivan, a team of young men in suits and buzzcuts appeared. The man in the lead was a young soldier in uniform with a star on his shoulder!The young soldier hurried over to Gavin and saluted him. "Captain Horner, we have successfully completed our mission." Gavin nodded slightly at the soldier and then

    Blake commanded a few Warrior League apprentices to load the Medcroft Cauldron into the car before gesturing politely to Sebastian. "After you, Mr. Ballard."Sebastian said goodbye to Belinda before getting in. Afterward, he handed Blake a bottle of Gold Remedy. "How are your injuries?"Blake shook his head. "I'm fine. However, you need to be careful after getting back, Mr. Ballard. I'm afraid that the Yutarian Warriors aren't going to let things go so easily."Sebastian hadn't been well-known before, but after what happened in the arena, his name had spread fast. "Don't worry. Let them come if they want to," Sebastian said, smiling slightly.…When Sebastian carried the Medcroft Cauldron into the convenience store, Nina and Lyanna both turned to look at him."There's something strange about this cauldron," Lyanna said, frowning. She could sense a frightening tendril of energy from it. It was an ancient, powerful object that was very mysterious, and it clashed with her ghostl

    The Yutarians would be very likely to try and penetrate the three divine mountains to find the Reincarnation Pill if they were unable to find anything in other places.The Warriors that had been sent to Steinberg were probably only a distraction.Steinberg was just a small city, after all, and Sartvale was just a small state in Dramon that didn't have many legends in its history.The three divine mountains were different. Every single mountainous region contained countless legends and stories.The Medcroft had been named as the place where the Way of Wisdom had originated.Norlyn was named the home of deities.Meanwhile, Caela was called the gate to paradise. Even in the present day, there had been no one who had managed to explore the three divine mountains thoroughly. No one could reveal the secrets of those three divine mountains either."Madam Dragon, do you mean that we should delay them or destroy them here in Steinberg while we also send someone to keep an eye on the th

    The losses they had suffered that night were too severe. More importantly, they had offended Jorvahn.Giovanni felt that there had been nothing wrong with his plan. The only mistake they had made was in allowing Saul to escape, which resulted in the entire thing getting exposed."Mr. Conti!" Luigi's voice came from the doorway as Giovanni was wiping down the blade."Please come in, Mr. Coppola," Giovanni said as he continued to wipe down the Yutarian saber.The door was pushed open, and Luigi walked into the room. When he saw that Giovanni was actually wiping down his Yutarian saber, his eyes widened."Mr. Conti, are you…"Giovanni smiled bitterly and said, "It's what our superiors want. I'm sure that someone will come and take over for me tomorrow morning."He sighed deeply.Luigi hastily pressed Giovanni's hand and said, "Mr. Conti, this has nothing to do with you. This is all due to my negligence."Giovanni shook his head slightly and said, "That is no longer important. How

    Belinda nodded slightly and said, "Hold grand funerals for those who are dead and take care of their families.""Yes, Madam," Blake replied. He looked stern as he waved at the Warrior League apprentices. They all quickly picked up the corpses of the Warrior League apprentices on the ground and carried them into the cars.Someone took out gasoline and poured it over the assassins.Sebastian lit a cigarette and took a few drags. He then flung it at the pile of corpses.As flames roared into the air, Blake said coldly, "Get into the cars and let's go!"The procession of cars began driving toward Ventus Estate. …After Luigi had managed to escape, he stopped a few miles away. The assassins who had followed him slowly gathered together.After counting the people present, Luigi couldn't help sighing heavily. Out of over 300 assassins, almost half of them were dead. How was he going to explain this to Giovanni?"Warrior League!" Luigi clenched his fists viciously."Mr. Coppola, m

    Blake was shocked to see that the apprentice had been killed right in front of his eyes. He waved quickly to his right and left.There was the sound of doors opening and closing as over 200 Warrior League apprentices jumped out of the cars.The rustling sound in the woods could be heard from either side of them."The assassins have caught up!" Saul said nervously.Although he was very confident in Sebastian's skills, he was still only one person. The Warrior League had more people, but the assassins were in the shadows. It was a disadvantageous situation for the Warrior League.There was a sharp whistling noise as countless throwing spikes shot out of the woods. Several Warrior League apprentices fell to the ground."Turn off the car headlights!" Sebastian shouted at the Warrior League members.All the car headlights were turned off at once, and it became pitch-black. Sebastian opened the car door softly and leaped into the woods. There was the crunch of bones breaking, and

    "They're afraid that the Juwanian King Jorvahn will lead a force to Dramon and affect their plans. That's why they wanted to kill everyone. Their goal is to find the Reincarnation Pill in Dramon," Belinda said as she analyzed the situation.Sebastian frowned, deep in thought. Soon, he nodded in agreement.That was the only explanation that made sense.Otherwise, there was really no reason for the Yutarian Warriors to slaughter all the Yvantonian Warriors when there was no grudge between them."They killed all of my people. As long as you keep me safe, I'll tell King Jorvahn about everything that happened here. I can guarantee that King Jorvahn will destroy all of them, and he won't hold you responsible," Saul said urgently to Sebastian and Belinda. Sebastian and the Warrior League were Saul's last hope. They were still more than ten miles away from the city, and it would be impossible for him to flee there if he had to run. Besides, the enemy would be sure to chase after him if

    A few other Warrior League apprentices went up to them. When they were close enough, one of them asked coldly, "What are you shouting about in the middle of the night?"Saul looked fearfully at them and asked, "Where's Mr. Ballard? I want to see him! Something huge has happened!"He was very pale, and he looked extremely afraid. The Warrior League apprentices frowned, and one of them immediately took out his phone to call Blake.Upon hearing Blake's voice, the apprentice told him about how Saul had run over to them to ask for help.Blake nodded and said, "Don't hang up yet. Let me ask Madam Dragon."Blake hurriedly rolled down the window and waved a hand at the cars behind him, indicating for them to stop temporarily."Madam Dragon, Yvanton's team leader has come to ask for help, and he bumped into some of our men who were fixing their car. Do you think…"Belinda and Sebastian were both startled. Sebastian had just killed Jorvahn's grandson, and now Saul had come to ask them

    "That's right! This time, we must find the Reincarnation Pill!" said another Warrior.If Jorvahn did turn up in Dramon, the Yutarian Warriors would be wiped out by him. Yutaria had sent over 300 Warriors this time, not just to defeat Dramon's Warriors in the arena. They had an even more important mission. They had to stay in Dramon and find the Reincarnation Pill!There were only less than three years until the day when their ancestral god would be restored. The ancestral god would remain asleep forever if they couldn't get the Reincarnation Pill back within those three years.At that time, the islands of Yutaria might even sink into the sea because of the ancestral god's deep slumber. This was a secret that Yutaria had hidden for thousands of years."Kill them all so they won't have a chance to spread the news!" Giovanni finally made up his mind after hesitating for a while."Yes, sir!" The Warriors straightened up simultaneously and bowed to Giovanni.Luigi waved a hand

    The news of how Jorvahn's grandson had been chopped into mincemeat and fed to dogs caused a commotion in the family at once.However, Dramon was too far away, and they didn't know enough about the situation there. Even though they wanted revenge, they would have to wait for the visiting team to return to Yvanton before they could gain more information and form a plan.…On the way back to the city, Belinda was worried for Sebastian and said, "Mr. Ballard, although there's nothing wrong with killing the grandson of the Juwanian King Jorvahn, chopping the two into mincemeat and feeding them to the dogs was a little inappropriate."She didn't just have connections with the high-level officials of Dramon, but she also had many friends in the international martial arts community. However, she had never had any dealings with Jorvahn before.Jorvahn had a terrible reputation in both Yarroland and Velkashan. He was extremely hard to deal with, and it wasn't because he was capable. It was
