Sorry, But I Never Rely On Luck When Playing Cards

Chapter 372: Chapter 138: The Strongest Challenger in the Hall_3

Hearing Ree Shil’s goal, Blue Skin couldn’t close his mouth in astonishment.

"Hmm, I’ve prepared some good things for Director Thompson."

Ree Shil nodded.

Since he would be exposed sooner or later, why not use it against Henry Thompson?

He is the strongest player in this tournament, and no one else can win against him, so even if he loses, he won’t lose, right?

You could say that in the next card game, he has no burden.

Besides, when he eagerly entered the "Journey of the Drifting Wood," it was to get a few Demon Card preparations to deal with Henry Thompson, right?

Blue Skin suggested to think thrice and decide this matter when Secretary Brown and Show Director were around on another day.

However, Ree Shil’s mind was made up, and there was no room for rebuttal.

When enthusiasm comes, nobody can stop it.

So half an hour later, he got his wish and sat in the car heading to Henry Thompson Gaming Hall.

"Why don’t the cars of Card Clubs have steering wheels?"

Sitting in the driver’s seat, he asked Blue Skin this question.

"Uh, hahaha."

Blue Skin just laughed awkwardly, not knowing how to answer this question.

Ree Shil couldn’t touch the steering wheel, a rule set by Secretary Brown.

Those who watched the Nova Championships knew why.

Henry Thompson Gaming Hall was quite far from the Showcase Club, almost half a city away.

Card Club cars’ configurations were not high, but at least not the slightly hovering style of public buses.

It’s no problem to fly at a height of about ten meters.

For this level of vehicle, the Transportation Department’s central control system uses intelligent systems to plan different driving routes and heights for each car.

So there is no such thing as traffic jams and traffic lights.

In less than an hour, the two had arrived at Henry Thompson Gaming Hall.

In the car, Ree Shil had completed a round of Card-Making, enhancing the Demon-eliminating Demon.

In this round, he would challenge Henry Thompson in his strongest form.

Henry Thompson Gaming Hall seems to be larger than the Showcase Club.

From the outside, it looks about 1.5 times the size of Showcase Club.

It’s just that the overall decoration style seems a bit tacky.

The ornate golden appearance, with a huge metal cast character "Wang" on the top of the main gate.

"The large character on his gate is made of pure gold."

As soon as the two stood still, Blue skin started to introduce it to Ree Shil. frёeωebɳovel.com

"So it looks all fancy and all, but it’s not worth much."

"Not worth much? Pure gold?"

"Yeah, in our old hometown, gold is the cheapest metal, it is soft, has a large output, and has no use. It’s something only the poor in slums would use to make utensils."

"Then in your old hometown, what metal is the most valuable?"

"No metal is valuable. If you want to talk about the most precious material, it has to be plastic. You don’t know, when I first traveled through time, I collected a lot of plastic bottles, cans, and bags at home. Unfortunately, I later realized that I could not return to my old hometown," sighed Blue skin.

"... okay, cut the crap."

Ree Shil brought Blue Skin to make himself look more imposing with a little brother to help with errands and announcements. fɾeewebnoveℓ.co๓

He didn’t expect this guy to be so talkative and got himself almost taken in.

Then Blue Skin went in to make the announcement, and the first one to come out was not him.

Instead, it was Jason Hou, who hurried out of the Card House.

"Ree Shil!"

Seeing Ree Shil standing there, his eyes narrowed.

This guy, Master didn’t challenge the hall back then because you were overworked from the 1v10.

But instead of waiting obediently with a clean neck to be challenged, you actually took it upon yourself to come forward?

Hehehe, it’s really ungrateful.

"Hello, nice to meet you."

Following the rules, Ree Shil stepped forward and shook hands with the other party, "So you are Director Thompson, right? So young."

He hadn’t seen Henry Thompson in person and felt that this man’s voice sounded somewhat similar to the commentator’s at the Nova Championships.

"Hmm!"

This action caused Jason Hou to immediately hold his chest in frustration.

Being mistaken for his master was not the reason for his frustration.

What made him frustrated was that Ree Shil didn’t even remember him!

"We met in the first round of the Nova Championships, and you were almost (?) eliminated by me."

Jason Hou showed two cards with a somewhat ferocious expression.

An old man with white hair and beard, with dry, wrinkled skin and covered in age spots, [Old Sect Leader].

A sturdy man holding a big knife, a fierce and evil looking Fierce Disciple, [Crazy Apprentice].

"Oh, so it’s you."

Seeing these two cards made Ree Shil finally remember. He paused and then asked, "So, do you know how to play cards now?"

"Hmm!"

This sentence made Jason Hou hold his chest again.

Ree Shil’s original question of "Do you know how to play cards?" had struck him hard and it took him several days to recover.

"If you want to challenge my master, you have to pass my hurdle first."

Thinking of this old hatred, his expression turned stern and he released the card table.

Buzz!

The card table made of blue light was placed between the two.

"?"

But Ree Shil just looked puzzled and turned to Blue Skin.

"There’s no such rule."

Blue Skin shook his head: "Director Thompson is already inside waiting for you."

"Oh, then if you want to play cards with me, you can come to the Showcase Club and sign up for my class."

Ree Shil left Jason Hou with this sentence and walked past the card table.

"Hmm!"

Jason Hou held his chest for the third time.

He is the proud disciple of a curator, and you are actually asking me to go to another card club and sign up for your class?

As the two walked away, he even overheard their conversation.

"What’s the deal with this guy, are all the people in Henry Thompson Gaming Hall like this?"

"I don’t know, maybe it’s because you, Coach Shil, carry a stupidity-attracting light halo."

"Hey, I’ve been tolerating you for a long time."

...

Ree Shil and Blue Skin entered the Henry Thompson Gaming Hall, and naturally, there were staff members to lead the way.

Not only does this Gaming Hall look bigger in scale than the Showcase Club from the outside, but also from the inside.

In fact, its internal floor area is even much larger than what it appears from the outside.

At this time, it was not the peak of member activities, but according to Ree Shil’s observations, the people present were at least three times the number at the Showcase Club’s peak.

So it’s clear that this Gaming Hall is doing quite well.

Blue Skin also heard that if you took away the name of Balance Hall, Henry Thompson’s Gaming Hall could compete with Flat Orange’s club in terms of popularity.

It’s just that the decoration style here is still not very impressive, with gold everywhere.

At the meeting room where Henry Thompson was waiting, Ree Shil and Blue Skin finally met him.
