527: Chapter 575 The Gambling Game Begins Again!
Lord Yishu Noble actually discovered the Fungus Race and Thousand Changes Race following An Ke!
No. 1379 was very surprised.
It had originally thought Noble Yishu wouldn't notice, because there were no markers on the players' heads to distinguish them.
Without confirming through the live broadcast room, it was difficult to spot other players mixed into An Ke's group.
After all, An Ke was different from other civilizations; he had many animals around him, and these animals now had three different forms.
This caused the members around An Ke to look all sorts of ways; the Thousand Changes Race and Fungus Race didn't look out of place among them at all.
Under normal circumstances, Nobles wouldn't imagine a player from an F-Class Civilization having two players from other civilizations by his side.
However... there are no 'ifs' in reality, and Noble Yishu still discovered the Thousand Changes Race and Fungus Race following An Ke.
One could only say that Nobles are indeed Nobles; they aren't that foolish and are cautious enough.
No. 1379 sighed silently in its heart.
What a pity! General Fama, Noble Tike... the lords were just a bit of leverage away from successfully swindling a sum of resources.
Just now, Noble Tike, General Fama, and several other Nobles had stepped forward to protect it, making No. 1379 feel grateful toward them.
Naturally, it hoped these Nobles could obtain some benefits.
Noble Yishu's expression was quite foul; he had almost been fooled.
All around, because of Noble Yishu's words, the other Nobles finally realized there were actually two players from foreign civilizations next to An Ke.
While they understood why Noble Tike, Qieno, and the others were scrambling to open a bet with Yishu Noble, doubt also surfaced in their hearts.
"Strange! Why would a player from an F-Class Civilization have players from two other civilizations with him?"
"Indeed! That is something none of us expected."
For the Nobles, A-Class Civilizations were only barely worth a glance.
Only S-Class Civilizations would be looked at directly and pique their interest.
Therefore, the B-Class Fungus Race and C-Class Thousand Changes Race hadn't been noticed by the Nobles, which is why they hadn't been discovered until now.
"Yishu, fortunately you took an extra look, otherwise you would have suffered a silent loss."
"Hahaha! It looks like this Human Player has become a subordinate to these two civilizations."
"That's not right, is it? Why do I get the feeling that everyone present is centered around that Human Player?"
"I feel the same! It feels like the other two civilizations are actually An Ke's subordinates."
"Impossible! Absolutely impossible. An Ke is an F-Class player, while the other two are B and C-Class respectively. How could they possibly be An Ke's subordinates?"
"Most likely, the other two civilizations intend to backstab someone, so they're hiding within the weakest Human Civilization. Once their opponents drop their guard, they'll deliver a fatal blow."
"That is a very high possibility..."
The Nobles discussed fervently.
As for Noble Yishu, he naturally had no intention of opening a bet with Noble Tike and the others.
The Fungus Race's civilization rating was B-Class, one level higher than the Mercury State Race.
If he opened a bet, there was a high probability he would lose.
"Noble Tike, Dai Ni Ke... you Nobles are truly sinister!" Noble Yishu snorted.
Noble Tike's expression remained calm as he said, "We actually didn't intend to use such a lowly method to trick you."
Noble Yishu sneered, "Heh! I'll just smile and say nothing."
Who would believe that?
Dai Ni Ke grinned, "How about this, we'll add a restriction to the stakes this time."
"We bet on the player An Ke winning, and you bet on the Mercury State Race player winning.
If An Ke wins this battle in the end, as long as the contribution he and his members take accounts for over seventy percent, then we win the bet.
Conversely, if An Ke's group is defeated by the Mercury State Race, then you win. How about it?"
"What if An Ke is about to lose but is saved by the players from the other two civilizations? How would that count?" Noble Yishu asked darkly.
In a match where variables cannot be restricted, anything could happen.
"Then that counts as your win," Noble Tike said without the slightest hesitation.
Noble Yishu took a deep look at Noble Tike and the others, as if trying to see through their hearts.
What exactly were these people up to?
Were they really so confident that An Ke would definitely win?
Regarding the strength evaluation of the opponent's civilization...
It was clear that Yishu was a very cautious Noble.
His gaze began to focus on An Ke's animal members. Could it be that An Ke's true strength came from this group of animals?
No! That was unlikely.
After all, if there was a powerful 'core', which player wouldn't use it themselves?
So, since An Ke was weak, the members around him likely weren't much better.
While Yishu was still pondering over the hidden traps, other Nobles were already losing their patience.
"Noble Tike, Dai Ni Ke... how about I bet with you?
Yishu has been dilly-dallying for ages; it's a pure waste of time."
"Oh?" Dai Ni Ke smiled. "Qingtian, what do you plan to bet?"
"Resources, naturally."
"I will divide all my resources into 10 portions and put up 4 of them to bet with you.
If you win, you take them all and divide them among yourselves.
If you lose, then each of you must pay me one-tenth of the resources you hold. How about it?"
Noble Tike smiled faintly. "I have no problem with that. I don't know what the other Nobles think, though."
Dai Ni Ke also raised a hand in agreement. "I have no problem either."
The two Nobles, Qieno and Noble, wanted to increase the stakes but were afraid the other party would grow suspicious and back out of the bet.
Therefore, they also agreed to this betting proposal.
"Aren't you afraid they're setting a trap?" Noble Yishu looked at Noble Qingtian in confusion.
Qingtian waved his hand and leaned back relaxedly. "What is there to fear?"
"The [Game] has already given its evaluation. If I'm still afraid, wouldn't that be a lack of respect for the [Game]?"
Noble Yishu thought that made sense; the authority of the [Game] was arguably higher than even that of the Nobles.
Thus, Yishu no longer hesitated; such an opportunity might not come again.
So he also spoke up, "I'll open another bet with you identical to Qingtian's. You have no objections, right?"
"Heh! Naturally no objections. The bet is on!"
"Fine!"
"No problem!"
"..."
With the agreement of several Nobles, following the bet between General Fama and Azure, two more bets appeared.
"Hahaha! This Elimination Round's players are quite energetic, and the atmosphere in the meeting room is ten times more active than before.
Previously, bets weren't opened right at the start."
"I'm starting to look forward to it. I wonder who will win the bet in the end."
"One is F-Class, the other is C-Class. What do you think?"
"..."
The Nobles all began watching An Ke's live stream, anticipating who would ultimately claim victory.
Most in their hearts were essentially favoring the Mercury State Race.
After all, with the combat power of the two major civilizations by An Ke's side effectively banned, how could he possibly fight?
Inside the live stream.
The Mercury State Race was wondering what civilization An Ke's group belonged to.
After a moment, someone spoke up with a guess: "Most likely, they are Human Players..."
