Chapter 71 A Dice Game

"Find someone first." Billy noticed a uniformed beauty standing nearby.

"Miss, is there any other place to play greater the lobby here?" he asked with a smile.

"Hello, sir!" The uniformed beauty walked over with a professional smile on her face. "How great do you want?"

"The greatest one." Billy asked with another laugh.

"We don't have any limits here. As long as the customer is willing to bet, we'll take it." Replied the uniformed beauty.

"Really?" Billy smiled and asked again. "Is there a game where I can bet ten billion in one round?"

The woman choked for a moment. She had been working at this casino for 3 years and had seen many wealthy people betting millions or even a billion in one round. But she had never seen anyone betting ten billion in one round.

After carefully examining Billy and his two companions, the beauty spoke up hesitantly, "Sir, are you serious?"

"Do I look like I'm joking?"

"Please wait for a moment." The woman was stunned once more before turning around and walking towards an opposite VIP room. Soon after that, she led over an alluring woman with delicate features and an hourglass figure.

"May I ask for your name, sir?" The tall woman smiled flirtatiously at Billy.

"My last name is Gardner."

"Ah, Mr Gardner," the woman said with a gesture of invitation. "Please follow me."

"Thank you," Billy stood up and followed her.

Soon, they entered a VIP room. Looking around, there were seven or eight men standing in each corner of the room, all with strong presence. A beautiful female dealer stood by a gambling table. From her aura, it was clear that she was not an ordinary person either.

"Mr Gardner, let me introduce myself first." The woman looked at Billy and said, "I'm Emily Reed, you can call me Emily. I am in charge of this casino."

"I heard from her that Mr Gardner wants to bet ten billion per round?" she continued. Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

"It depends on whether the house dares to accept it or not." Billy replied nonchalantly.

"Mr Gardner! We welcome all customers here, there's no reason for us to refuse any bets." Emily smiled. "I'm just curious about what game you want to play?"

"Anything goes." Billy responded.

"You seem very confident, Mr Gardner?" Emily squinted slightly as she looked at him.

"Well since it's gambling we're talking about here, luck plays a big part in determining who wins or loses until the results are out, anyone has a chance of winning, right?"Billy laughed lightly

"Indeed!" Emily giggled coquettishly. And she pointed to a chair next to the gambling table. "Please have a seat, Mr Gardner."

"Thank you." Billy replied as he took his place.

"Shall we keep it simple, Mr Gardner?" Emily asked from across the table. "Let's play dice, each of us with six dice and whoever has the lowest score wins."

"A game worth ten billion?" asked Billy.

"How about it?" Emily grinned.

"Well, why not?" Billy laughed.

"You're a man of your word, Mr Gardner." Emily complimented him before turning to a beautiful dealer beside her.

The dealer nodded and handed out two sets of dice, one for Billy and one for Emily.

"Ladies first!" Billy gestured towards Emily with a smile on his face.

"Alright!" With renewed vigor in her eyes, Emily picked up her set of dice and began rolling them expertly between her fingers. Obviously, she was someone who had spent years honing this skill at the gambling tables. With a final thud on the table after about a minute or so of rolling, she opened it. Without suspense, six dice cups were stacked in a line, with the top die showing one dot.

"The banker has one point!" The beautiful dealer spoke, her eyes flashing a hint of admiration.

"Mr Gardner, I'm sorry to say my luck is pretty good today." Emily's lips curved into a faint smile. Playing dice with herself was no different from giving away money. She had been gambling at this casino for years and had never lost.

"Well done!" Billy gave a slight smile.

"It's your turn now, Mr Gardner!" said Emily.

"OK." Billy reached out and grabbed the dice cup, casually flipping his wrist before putting it down on the table.

When Billy opened the cup, there was a collective gasp in the room. Six dice were also stacked in a line but with the top dice spinning for a while before standing on top of another die. In the end, the dice on the top stood on one of its vertex.

As they watched Emily and others react to this outcome, Casey and Judge both raised their eyebrows slightly. Playing gambling tricks against their boss was simply ignorant and reckless.

The Army of Bloodshadow, with tens of thousands in its ranks, boasted many talented individuals. Not only were their martial arts skills above average, but they also excelled in other areas such as medicine, poison arts, marksmanship, gambling, mysticism, computers and finance. Among them were two experts in gambling, who had reached the pinnacle of their craft. It was said that their skills rank among the top five in the country. However, since they gambled with Billy once before and lost every single round out of a hundred played-one hundred to zero-they dared not mention their expertise again.

"Sorry about that. You lost." Billy said to Emily with a smile.

"... Who are you?" Emily knew she had met her match today.

"Does it matter?" Billy smiled again. "If you're not satisfied with the result we can play another round. Of course, but first you'll have to give me those ten billion."

Emily let out a heavy sigh and spoke up, "This round doesn't count by our rules, according to the rules, the minimum is one point. It should be considered an accident, so I'll give you another chance."

"So now you're trying to back out?" Billy raised an eyebrow at her words.

"Kid, didn't you hear what she said? Your score doesn't count, roll the dice again!" A man in black walked over.

"Otherwise, consider yourself a loser and bring out ten billion immediately before getting out of here!"

"Are you ready to rob us?" Billy narrowed his eyes slightly.

"Kid, stop wasting time here!" The man in black responded coldly.

"You got another chance to roll the dice. If you don't want to do it, then bring out ten billion!"

"You're asking for death!" Judge's eyes sank as he wielded his curved blade and slashed down on the gambling table, which broke into two pieces under his strike.

After a brief pause, Emily asked again, "Who are you guys?"

"Even if it's a gray industry, there should be some basic rules of the game to follow." Billy took out a cigarette from his pocket and lit it up.

"If you're not willing to accept losing at gambling then this casino doesn't need to stay open anymore!"

"Are you looking for trouble here today?" Emily couldn't help but feel uneasy when she saw Billy's carefree expression.
