I'm a monster in Demon King's Castle
#435 - Carrying Sect
【He's watching me.】
The red-robed priest's thoughts were as clear as her words.
"Is he?" The velvet-robed skeleton pointed to its own empty eye sockets, "If you say he is, then he is."
Imagining that the red-robed priest had popped out of the great altar, Li Yue was even more curious about her relationship with Mento, and what exactly she could "sacrifice" to obtain something.
If the action prediction success rate is high enough, everything is easy to talk about.
Li Yue even suspected that after being made into a "gambling puppet," this red-robed priest still had her own will.
"Not betting?" The red robe looked at the door in front of her, and before even entering the gambling game, she had already begun to urge betting, looking more like a gambling puppet at this moment.
"If you say bet, then bet."
Li Yue didn't come to browse, since he had already collected this gambling puppet, he naturally had to try it out at the gambling table, and in the process, he could also listen to the red robe's thoughts.
If he searched each room one by one, he would eventually find Oogie Boogie, right?
"Is it betting time?" The red robe urged again.
【1 time…】
But the red-skinned demon's expression was very dull. With a "pop," its body burst open, turning into lava, nourishing the large blood cocoon and making it pulsate slightly, regaining a trace of redness.
"Is it betting time?" The red robe urged once more.
Li Yue dared to rule out that possibility.
Still playing dice?
Incidentally, the red-robed priest was also calculating the skeleton's betting times.
Accompanied by the host's swallowing, coughing, and other movements, the foreign object flowed rapidly within the blood tumor, and the things carried on the back also rose and fell with it.
The red robe's answer was unexpected.
【Could it be that the demons' gambling game isn't like that?】
The inside and outside of the tumor seemed to not yet have foreign objects parasitizing it, probing out blood vessels, connecting to the items embedded inside—some were bull and goat skulls, some were severed hands, and some were even… not hoes or other farm tools.
Carefully choosing a chair to sit on, Li Yue also discovered that the concept of the gambling table was completely different from what he had imagined.
It was just that the handwriting was faint, as if this kind of bad luck wouldn't last very long, nor was it too intense.
Zhao Ren shook the invitation ticket in his hand, roughly understanding the logic of the gambling game.
A very unusual grumble from the red-robed priest.
But immediately after, a bulge suddenly emerged from under the large blood cocoon, and a red-skinned demon flapped its wings and poked its head out.
Li Yue still didn't understand what the Back-Bearing Sect wanted to summon, but it looked like they had succeeded.
Judging from the size of the wings and the length of the horns, Li Yue judged that it should be a legion commander-level red-skinned demon.
Li Yue couldn't analyze that die. Clearly, like the diviner, it didn't exist here.
This summoning added a trace of blood color to the large blood cocoon. Another believer carrying a tombstone scurried out from the square, walking quickly down, about to proceed with the next summoning.
【Why be so stingy…】
Li Yue noticed that when sitting down at the gambling table, the red-robed priest seemed to have turned on some kind of switch.
They were of various sizes, proudly stepping on people's shoulders and backs.
"I least like to share the gambling table with poor ghosts…"
Now, Li Yue finally understood why the amount had to return to 0 before one could leave the casino.
Li Yue couldn't determine whether that scene of the Back-Bearing Sect was currently happening, but he also had a direct impression of the casino, thinking that no wonder there were so many gambling tables inside, the gamblers were all staring intently at the projections in mid-air…
Opening the door, the gambling table was located in the center of the room, with demons and humans of various shapes and colors sitting or lying against the walls.
【Yes, this is the large blood cocoon… It's just about to wither.】
"Bite your demon ass!" A gambler who bet 10,000 on the summoning's success saw the velvet-robed skeleton's action and thought it was showing off, angrily slapping the table.
Accompanied by the believer's exertion, his knees and arms fractured, and the blood tumor on his back immediately burst open, becoming a wisp of blood that flowed into the large blood cocoon.
Soon, the believer in the picture carrying half a corpse expanded to a certain extent and began to use his shoulders and back to try to carry the large blood cocoon in the center of the square.
It was just right to take a look in advance at what kinds of games the Demon King City's casinos had, and what the content of the gambling game actually was…
That wasn't how the casino operated, nor would it cause everyone to shy away from the casino.
【Lost the bet?】
The Staff of Deception should work, right?
After each family placed their bets, they waited quietly for the results of the Back-Bearing Sect's summoning; Zhao Ren also discovered that betting wasn't forced. Some gamblers just sat at the table to observe without placing bets.
With many questions, the gold-chained skeleton swayed left and right, the skeleton in its arms was quiet, and the three skeletons and the gambling puppet walked into the first summoning room together.
In the projection, in the square, people carrying various foreign objects were worshiping a blood tumor. A believer carrying half a corpse walked to the top of the blood tumor, and his back began to expand.
At the moment of betting, Li Yue saw the other gamblers' bets—the smallest was 2,000, and one of them had a bet amount as high as 10,000, betting on the Back-Bearing Sect's success in this summoning.
As the two demon sons who followed the First Army on the expedition, Dandan and Yingying were of course able to distinguish what exactly the blood tumor in the center of the square was.
Can the Eye of Aberration be used?
Oogie Boogie wasn't in this room.
Whatever was gained, whether it was luck or souls, was added to oneself when the gambling game was decided. These materials invested in the invitation ticket were indeed the capital, but they were very different from the "gains" at the gambling table.
"What the hell, are you not respecting us…"
Seeing the red-skinned demon's figure, the believers in the square surged forward, vying to show off their blood tumors, immediately falling into madness.
The velvet-robed skeleton pointed to the gambler who had just slapped the table and asked the red robe.
The believers seemed to have successfully performed a sacrifice, chanting inexplicable incantations, resounding throughout the square.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading!
Although Zhao Ren didn't know what the Back-Bearing Sect wanted to summon, he bet on the summoning's success.
However, the amount didn't +1. Instead, in addition to "Good Luck," a "Summoning Luck" was added to the status bar of the eight demon sons, also faint and almost invisible.
In the picture, a group of humans were gathering in front of a large town square like ants; in the center of the square stood a huge blood tumor, but it seemed to have lost nutrients and was not very full.
In other words, outside this Hall of Luck, one could completely exhaust their capital, win a large amount of luck, and leave when the amount returned to 0.
Yingying and Dandan were used to it. Of course, they knew that Li Yue was just trying cautiously, wanting to understand the casino's process as always.
Like in the Hall of Delights, most gamblers didn't join the gambling game with their true faces, and their forms were all disguised; Zhao Ren could vaguely use the Demon Compendium to distinguish a few demon merchants and humans, and the rest were demons that hadn't been collected.
"Did you pick up your escort?"
【Something that happened in the past? If one knew the outcome of a certain event early on, couldn't they cheat?】
"I want to bet, but before that… I don't like the look of him, can I kill him?"
【They said… could it be… the Back-Bearing Sect?】
Like a dung beetle trying to carry a super-huge dung ball.
"Bet." The velvet-robed skeleton waved its bone hand, and the amount on the invitation ticket decreased by 1.
"This summoning is successful…" The dice announced the results of the gambling game, and Li Yue realized that he had won the bet.
【So this gambling game isn't playing cards or dice, but betting on something that is currently happening… or something that happened in the past?】
The velvet-robed skeleton sat down at the gambling table, and after only observing for a moment, he recalled the chain reaction caused on the continent before the collapse of faith, in which the description of this "Back-Bearing Sect" was very close to the scene projected by the gambling table.
"The amount has a lower limit, 1 to 1 odds, a successful bet can obtain an equal amount of summoning luck, please place your bets." The dice slowly explained the rules of the gambling table, with no emotion in its words.
The gamblers also had some complaints about Li Yue's 1 point bet, but this didn't affect Li Yue's expectant mood at all.
The gambling table was indeed a huge table, but the dice placed in the center projected a picture from its 1 point.
The gambling puppet of my body was a man wearing a tuxedo, with delicate features, but a somewhat seductive smile.
The gold-chained skeleton felt that this wasn't rigorous, nor was it polite.
The humans were wrapped in rags, but the tumors on their backs were clearly visible.
【Current target… Status: Active】
Playing cards?
As soon as the velvet-robed skeleton heard this, it perked up, and the skeleton in its arms also sat up straight.
Looking back at the three skeletons' bodies, their respective statuses had also become "Good Luck."
It was estimated that the other halls also had the same conversion method.
"Will their next summoning be successful?" The dice on the gambling table noticed the addition of a new gambler, and with the 3 point side facing the three skeletons, the bottom 1 point spoke in demonic language.
【Of course.】
