Chapter 779 - 815: Seeking Outside Help, Rescue (Part 2)
"Dad, don’t speak nonsense. If I do marry Curly one day, it’s definitely not because of their weapons," Ernest Turner said unhappily.
"It’s the same thing."
"It’s not the same!" Ernest Turner got angry.
"..."
"Put me down!"
Jeffrey Turner put his son down, looked at his son’s frail body, and said, "When will you grow up to be like me? Look at your weak appearance, women don’t like this..."
"I don’t want to grow up to be like you!"
"What’s wrong with me? Your mom was once head over heels for me."
"Wasn’t it my mom who had you head over heels?" The son debunked his father.
"Brat!"
Ernest Turner walked away arrogantly, watching his beloved son with joy in his heart.
Barrett heavy sniper rifles, this isn’t something you can just buy with money.
Isn’t it just Xavier Young?
Adrian Desmond is really generous; Xavier Young isn’t worth that much at all.
Hahaha, he’s made a fortune.
...
In the car, Brandon Potter told Adrian Desmond the information someone had investigated.
"Sixth Master, it’s been found out. That lake is called Lake Multeye. It is indeed a reservoir, and a dam has been built on Lake Multeye. If the dam is blown up, Woodenshade Village will truly be flooded."
Adrian Desmond was intrigued, "Get Brett Jacobs to contact 001 and see if he can bring Sienna Johnson out from the abandoned tunnel. Remember, ensure absolute safety."
"Yes."
Just as Brandon Potter was about to call Brett Jacobs, Adrian Desmond’s phone rang.
Adrian Desmond saw the number on the phone and smiled, pressing the answer button, "I was just about to find you, and now you’ve called me first."
"I’m at the usual place, come find me," Wayne Manning said.
"Okay."
After hanging up, Adrian Desmond said to Sabrina Conner who was driving, "Go to Holy Temple!"
Sabrina Conner had already arranged the Himakati map, pulled out the navigation, and headed straight for Holy Temple.
The location of Holy Temple is quite remote; it took a long drive from the Lake Multeye District to find a small pub near Holy Temple.
Adrian Desmond called Wayne Manning, and someone led them from the pub underground.
Underground was a large casino, extravagantly decorated, starkly contrasting with the ordinary small pub above.
This underground casino was run by Wayne Manning and only catered to wealthy people. It was also called The Golden Nest because many rich people would enter, only to leave poor.
Gamblers from many countries come here because, as long as you gamble here, drugs are provided for free.
"Sixth Master, this way please."
Adrian Desmond was led to Wayne Manning’s table, where Wayne Manning was gambling heavily, surrounded by two scantily clad beauties who, upon seeing Adrian Desmond, flirted with him through their eyes.
Upon arriving, someone naturally vacated a seat for Adrian Desmond, who then sat down.
Wayne Manning handed Adrian Desmond a cigarette, which he didn’t light immediately but instead sniffed. Wayne Manning laughed, "I know you don’t like ’4,’ this is just an ordinary cigarette."
There are many types of drugs, with Southwest Agaia drugs, Middle Eastern drugs, and Southeast Agaia drugs being among the most popular. So-called "3 drugs" and "4 drugs" refer to two types of Southeast Agaia drugs.
"3 drugs" generally have a purity of 30-50%; "4 drugs" have a purity of 80%.
"You should smoke less," Adrian Desmond held the cigarette in his mouth, a lady lit the fire, igniting the cigarette.
"I can’t help it, I’m addicted. It feels awful if I don’t smoke for a day," Wayne Manning smoked "4."
"With Fortune on our side tonight, it’s definitely a winning streak," an excited gambler shouted.
The gambler was speaking Chinese, catching Adrian Desmond’s attention, and he looked over.
He placed a large bet on the "banker" square, but unexpectedly, it landed on "player," so he increased his chips, continuing to bet "banker," hoping to quickly recover his losses, yet it was still "player." He changed his strategy several times, but the opposite kept appearing.
The more he lost, the more his complexion worsened. In the end, when he had no more chips, he calculated that he had lost over 1.5 million, presumably bankrupt, and lay on the table, crying bitterly.
Adrian Desmond disdainfully said, "If you can’t play, don’t gamble."
Wayne Manning said unhappily, "Throw him out!"
"Yes!"
Another rich man turned pauper was thrown out, not knowing if he still had the money for a plane ticket home.
"Your business here is getting better and better."
"Just making a little money, not as much as you. Play a game with me."
Adrian Desmond had someone exchange 1.5 million chips, exuding an air of wealth, causing Wayne Manning’s two women to be captivated by Adrian Desmond’s gaze, unable to leave.
"Go accompany Sixth Master!" Wayne Manning said to the people around him.
The women quietly rejoiced, about to get up, but Adrian Desmond refused, "Don’t harm me. I married a fierce wife, and if she finds out, I’ll probably be sleeping on the sofa again."
Nowadays, Adrian Desmond can comfortably use his fear of his wife as an excuse.
Wayne Manning scrutinized Adrian Desmond, "You marry a woman or an ancestor."
"I enjoy it!"
"Cheap!"
Adrian Desmond tossed two hundred thousand chips, and the gambling officially began.
Adrian Desmond only played two rounds before seeing three men who had lost everything being thrown out by the bodyguards.
For the casino, the fear is not of customers winning, but of them winning and leaving.
As long as customers stay at the casino, eight or nine times out of ten they end up losing; geomancy, luck, and talismans can’t be relied on. No matter how you calculate, the casino’s odds of winning are always higher. So, as long as the casino has people coming and going, it’s profitable. Hence, the casino’s goal is to attract more customers and keep them longer.
