Chapter 473: 456: We rely on technology in our card play!

But with limited energy, Shuihua was already exhausted from studying during the day and just wanted to relax and entertain herself after school.

Streaming gaming, after all, was work rather than entertainment, and it was mentally draining. So, Shuihua never considered it.

This led to the situation where netizens could only occasionally see Shuihua appear in other anchor’s livestreams.

This greatly limited her popularity accumulation.

But this mysterious approach, appearing sporadically like a dragon glimpsed through the clouds, also meant that each time Shuihua showed up, she’d bring audiences a surprise.

This, in turn, made everyone look forward even more eagerly to her own broadcasts.

It’s hard to make a judgement on whether this approach is beneficial or not at the moment.

But one point everyone agreed on: Shuihua’s luck was incredibly good!

The “Goddess of Luck” had become a major mystery in the virtual world.

With this in mind, this competition became really interesting—

Cody represented technical gameplay, whereas Shuihua represented gameplay relying on luck.

So when skill collided with luck, who would win?

The audience in the live broadcast room eagerly argued and anticipated.

Considering most players’ habits, Cloud Dream did not opt for a more advanced “sexy dealer mode, dealing cards online”, but instead let everyone draw their own cards.

Upon drawing his cards, Cody immediately knew one thing: the two people across from him at the card table were both beginners.

As an old hand, he could tell who was a beginner or experienced just from the way they drew their cards.

And Shuihua’s hesitant movements immediately gave her away.

When the drawing was over, Cody looked at his hand of cards, and was immediately excited: “I’m set for this game!”

A 17-card hand including a [Joker], a [Straight], and two sets of [Bombs]!

How could he lose?

If he did lose, he’d eat the table on the spot!

Although he lamented, “It’s a bit of a pity, if the Q was J, it would have been a sure kill!”

As the landlord, Shuihua went first and played a single [6].

Cody, without hesitation, threw out a [9].

The aunt player hesitated for a few seconds and then opted, “I pass.”

Shuihua went again, Cody followed suit, the aunt passed again, Shuihua went again, and Cody decisively played the [Joker] to overtake.

The aunt once again hesitated, seeming to ponder something.

A few seconds later, the aunt still shook her head, saying, “I pass.”

Shuihua, not admitting defeat, threw down a [Joker King].

Cody let out a triumphant laugh, “Bomb!”

[4444]!

“No takers? Hahaha, [5678910], Straight!!”

After rejoicing, he suddenly realized, he made a mistake, and should have used the [2]…

However, it didn’t matter!

No one was taking it, so he threw out another [2]!

With the last Bomb [KKKK] left in his hand, victory was assured!

But just as he threw out the [2], the constantly hesitating silent aunt suddenly threw out a set of Bomb [3333]!

“Well, well,” Cody was slightly surprised, but looking at the landlord Shuihua’s hand with at least a dozen cards left, he heaved a sigh of relief: it was okay, not a big deal.

“With so many cards, you can’t possibly beat me in one go, right?” Cody couldn’t help but mutter quietly.

No sooner had he spoken than he saw Shuihua throw out a big bomb [AAAA]!

Of course, no one could match that.

Then, without giving Cody any time to react, Shuihua threw all her remaining cards on the table—

[JJJ101010999885]!

[Airplane]!

“Ding~” The NPC referee rang a gong, “The round is over, the banker wins. Calculate the chips.”

Holding a Bomb in his hand, Cody stared wide-eyed at the slew of cards on the table and fell silent.

He doubted his life a bit.

Was this how you played the landlord?

Could you still lose when you held a Bomb?

In the live broadcast room, after a moment of shock, the audience immediately erupted:

“Real! God! Has! Descended!”

“I declare that the Goddess of Luck is the only true god in the virtual world!”

“We play cards with skill!”

Cody opened his mouth, unable to resist commenting, “Miss, you really have some good luck.”

“It’s just okay,” Shuihua felt embarrassed too.

She felt that winning in this way was a bit like cheating.

Besides, it was strange that usually when she came to the casino, she had terrible luck with the cards.

Whether it was during the closed beta with Lance, or after the launch with Camille Victoria, her luck was average, and she mainly lost.

She couldn’t think why today, she’d have such good luck!

Of course, Cody couldn’t accept this. Just having a run of good luck? Who doesn’t have a lucky day?

Winning cards based on luck could only promise temporary victory.

Only by relying on technology to win the cards, can one always win!

“Again!” Cody immediately challenged again as soon as the referee finished shuffling the cards.

“Um, okay.” Shuihua agreed and began to pick up the cards.

Then, Cody’s tragedy began.

“Three of one kind!” Cody calmly played his hand.

“Bomb!”

“Ding~ Game over, the challenger wins, chip settlement.”

“Four eights! Bomb!” Cody slapped out his cards.

“Four nines…” Shuihua softly played her cards.

“Ding~ Game over…”

“456789, straight!” Cody forcefully threw the cards on the table.

“78910JQ.” Shuihua gently played her cards.

“Ding~ Game over…”

“Four of a kind 5! Bomb!”

“Four of a kind J, Bomb.”

“Four Ks!! Outranked!!” Cody’s eyes were flaming, he looked at the last two cards in Shuihua’s hand, now you can’t escape, right?

Shuihua looked at Cody’s minorly reddened eyes, a little scared, but still threw the last two cards in her hand-

One [King], and one [Joker].

“Bomb.”

“Ding~”

“Ding ding ding ding ding…”

Cody felt his brain filled with “dings” until-

“Ding~ The game is over, the dealer wins, settles the chips, change tables.”

[Future Gambling God], Cody, his golden body broken, lost 20 chips for the first time, was forced to change tables.

Cody paused slightly, stood up without a word, slowly took off the coat on the back of the chair, put it on, and looked at Shuihua again, wanting to say something.

But he saw Shuihua joyfully sorting the small stack of chips in front of her, happily selfie with her chips, and moved for memorabilia.

Then, without any hesitation, she submitted her score, took her chips, and left the table.

Now Cody was a bit dumbfounded: “You, aren’t you going to continue?”

“Ah? Continue what?” Shuihua was a bit puzzled.

“Keep playing cards!”

“Why? I’ve already made it, haven’t I?” Shuihua asked back.

“But… You can always play according to the rules, and keep accumulating points.”

“Isn’t it enough to just pass?” Shuihua looked at Cody, a little puzzled.

Cody was even more puzzled: “With such good luck, wouldn’t you want to keep winning while the momentum is high? Don’t you want to win a few more rounds?”

“Hmm~” Shuihua shook her head repeatedly. “Not at all! I have to go to Dinosaur Island to raise dinosaurs! Bye, have fun!”

Saying that, Shuihua ran away, leaving the casino lobby.

Cody stood in place, looking, stunned, at Shuihua’s receding figure.

Without warning, a memory surfaced from the depths of his mind.

It was the scene when Old Dad said, “In this life, people only have two or three chances to turn things around.”

At that time, Old Dad hadn’t lost his fortune—he was in a period of continuous victory, ecstatic, even had an experience where his assets increased tenfold overnight.

Old Dad’s face was then filled with pride, feeling invincible, about to become a superior man.

But what followed was continuous loss.

The money he won earlier was all lost like water, even the family’s assets, money borrowed from relatives and friends, all lost completely, leaving only gambling debt.

If not for Old Mom decisively divorcing, even the house could have been sold, and the money from the sale would not be used to pay the debt, but to continue gambling, hoping to win and turn over.

What if, at that time, Old Dad had known when to stop, what would have happened?

And me?

Am I retracing Old Dad’s steps?

Just then, a large arrow appeared in Cody’s line of sight.

That’s the new game matchup result, this big arrow is pointing to his next table.

But Cody, who just woke up from the memory, suddenly shivered.

He ignored the arrow and directly submitted the score, ending his first preliminary selection battle.

Then he quickly walked towards the casino’s door, planning to leave.

– He felt he needed to cool down.

Before leaving the casino, one has to walk through a long corridor.

Cody’s steps were fast, but the corner of his eyes caught something on the wall of the corridor.

Before his brain had time to react, his feet had already stopped.

He turned around to look at the corridor and saw a beautiful girl in a fine large photo frame on the wall.

This frame has been hanging here for a while, but Cody has never really looked at it throughout the several times he has been in and out of the casino.

Until now, did he suddenly notice the content in the frame-

“Isn’t this… the girl just now?”

Cody subconsciously leaned back:

“What… what kind of opponent have I been facing just now?”
