Chapter 50 Card Game (Asking for a Monthly Pass at the Beginning of the Month)

Entering the "East Byron Veterans Club", Klein had just handed over his cane and hat to his personal servant Enyuni, when he saw Colonel Calvin, who served in the Ministry of Defense in Rune, wearing an army uniform and holding a glass of red wine, waiting in the hall.

The officer with the donkey-faced face smiled and raised his glass to Daun Dantès:

"Long time no see. ”

"It's true that I haven't seen each other for a while. Crane walked over with a smile.

Colonel Calvin then stretched out his right hand:

"Congratulations, this time it was a pretty good job, everyone was satisfied. ”

"I'm also satisfied. Klein expressed the meaning of happy cooperation in a Rune-style subtlety, and stretched out his right hand to shake the other party.

Calvin withdrew his hand, glanced at Councilor Macht next to Dwayne Dantès, and sighed and smiled:

"I didn't quite believe in your vision when you first introduced Dawn, but now I understand why you became a member of the House of Commons. ”

"Anyone who has ever been with Daun can easily conclude that he is an expert in this area. Councillor Makht also accepted the praise of Mr. Colonel with Rune subtlety.

Calvin withdrew his gaze, took a sip of red wine, smiled at Daun Dantès, and asked casually:

"How much did you earn this time?

"Don't worry, I'm not trying to lower the price later, but I'm just curious. ”

"Twenty thousand pounds worth of gold. Klein replied with a middle number.

In fact, he earned £25,000, but paid Miss Courier £10,000 and only earned £15,000.

Colonel Calvin nodded:

"Yes, if you need to turn those gold bars into gold coins, I can introduce you to the people at the Royal Mint.

"How's it going? Did you find anything unusual in Mesanyes' territory this time?"

Klein didn't think about it, and said directly:

"Yes!

"He had a place there called the Resurrection Square, which was destroyed by lightning. ”

"I know that. Colonel Calvin replied with a slightly solemn expression.

Then you probably don't know that it's the lightning in front of you...... Klein laughed and said:

"Also, Mesanyes seems to be maintaining a fragile balance between multiple forces, but he has actually secretly taken refuge with one side or the other, of course, I don't know who. ”

He didn't think about betraying the Church of God of Knowledge and Wisdom, but only revealed it a little bit to win the trust of the Rune military.

"The only thing that is certain is that it's not us. Colonel Calvin looked at him deeply.

"Probably not Intis, either. Klein helped them rule out a wrong option.

Colonel Calvin gave an "um":

"That's okay, most of the forces around Mesanyes are supported by the Intis, if he wants to expand, he will definitely not be able to avoid these, and when the time comes, maybe we can sell weapons again. ”

Speaking of which, he raised his glass:

"The storm is above, may everyone get rich together. ”

As believers in the goddess of the night, Klein and Councillor Macht could only smile at this and not respond directly.

After taking another sip of red wine, Calvin pointed to the second floor:

"Daun, I'm looking for you today to let you play cards with a big man, Texas. ”

"Which big one?" asked Crane with interest.

Calvin's expression became a little more serious, and he said with a less obvious smile:

"Admiral Emilius, who was re-instated, currently dominates the Ministry of Defense. ”

Admiral Emilius...... That younger brother was dismissed from the governorship, his mistress was tragically eroded by the "Mother Tree of Desire", and he lost his position as the supreme commander of the navy of the Central Sunia Sea? I have worked with him, and I have pretended to be him for a while...... Sure enough, for a demigod, as long as he doesn't go too far and is willing to endure, he will always get out of the trough...... Klein thought back to what had happened on Olavi Island, and felt a little nostalgic for a moment.

For this Admiral Emilius Levitt, he still felt a little guilty in his heart, although most of the things that happened at that time actually had nothing to do with him, but the change of the other mistress's wife was caused by the "Mother Tree of Desire" trying to control him.

"In other words, our cooperation in the future will need the approval of His Excellency the Admiral?" Klein asked abruptly.

"That's right. Colonel Calvin nodded, pointing to the staircase that led to the second floor, "Let's go up." ”

Coming to the second floor, stopping in front of a dark red door that was open to the side, Calvin glanced sideways at Daun Dantès:

"Your task today is to lose money. ”

Klein looked Calvin up and down a few times, and the corners of his mouth turned up a little:

"I'll try. ”

Congressman Makht next to him then laughed and said:

"Actually, you don't have to be too deliberate, Admiral Emilius has very good poker skills, even if you want to win, it's almost impossible, hehe, I lose every time, hey, I just hope I don't lose too much today, otherwise, I won't dare to go home." ”

Klein nodded thoughtfully:

"I've only brought £200 in cash, won't that be enough?"

"It's definitely not enough. Colonel Calvin laughed, "I've already exchanged you 1,000 pounds in chips, just come over and remember to return it later." ”

Rune's senior barristers, on the surface, only earn about £1,000 a year...... You corrupt people...... Klein looked Calvin up and down again.

Unaware of this, the colonel raised his hand and knocked on the door.

After waiting for a while, the open door creaked back, revealing the scene inside.

It was a thick, soft-carpeted hall with not much furniture and it looked rather empty.

In the center of the hall, there is a table for more than a dozen people, surrounded by luxurious high-backed chairs.

At the edge of the hall, there are gold-encrusted furniture, marble statues, coffee tables with books and newspapers, and a set of leather sofas.

At a glance, Klein saw Emilius Levitt, who was sitting at the top, the admiral had not changed much compared to before, his black hair was neatly combed, his blue eyes were dark and deep, the corners of his mouth drooped slightly, his face was not bearded, his temperament was old-fashioned and serious, he was wearing dark blue clothes with epaulettes, and every detail was not sloppy, extremely serious.

With a turn of his eyes, Klein found another "acquaintance":

He has thick but not messy black eyebrows, short, stiff hair of the same color, dark blue and almost black eyes, a nose bridge as high as a mountain, a large beard extending around his mouth, deep contours, a long face, cold lines, and a very tough guy taste.

This is the deputy head of MI9, Chunas Korg!

This is one of Klein's goals when he returns to Beckland, a middleman for human trafficking between the Witch Sect and a certain faction of the royal family, and an accomplice in the Great Smog of Beckland!

The Major General's Deputy Chief had unusually broad shoulders, a white shirt and a black vest held up unusually tight, and was concentrating on playing Texas Hold'em.

There are two demigods at a table, no, three demigods, how do you play this card? Interesting...... Klein found a seat and sat down, observing the rest of the table at the starting table.

In the process, the waiter brought a large stack of chips, worth a total of 1,000 pounds.

In the first few hands, Klein looked at the cards and threw them away, acting very cautiously, seemingly not getting a good hand, and never raising or calling.

And Admiral Emilius's style is just the opposite of him, not conservative at all, almost all the handles, constantly raising, extremely aggressive.

Wherever he participated, it was rare to reach the showdown, and the vast majority of people could not bear the oppression, as well as the majesty of the admiral, and after one or two rounds, they folded, among them, someone tried to catch the bluff of Emilius Levitt, but met the admiral's four nines, and his face turned pale, as if he had been sentenced to death by a judge.

Cunas Korg is another style, he loses from time to time, but the total stack is small, so it doesn't have much of an impact, and when he loses the next hand, he often manages to empty the chips of the last one who won him, forcing the opponent to spend money to buy new chips.

Why bother? Why do you use your ability to cheat when you play cards with extraordinary people in the middle and low ranks, or even ordinary people? Others can't see it, and I don't know yet? One is the momentum and coercion of the "arbiter" approach, and the other is the "bribery" of the "corrupt baron...... Crane looked at the hole cards with only the 5 of hearts and the 9 of clubs, and shook his head imperceptibly.

He couldn't help but think seriously about what abilities the "soothsayer" path could help if he wanted to cheat:

"Turning all your opponents into secret puppets? You can win as much as you want, and you can be invincible, but it has no practical value, and it is not planning a death poker tournament......

"It's a pity that there aren't any mosquitoes here, otherwise, I could control their 'spirit threads', make them secret, and help me look at other people's hole cards......

"The Facelings can only change themselves, not their cards......

"The illusion of the 'magician'?Playing cards with ordinary people and ordinary people with low and medium sequences should work well, but there are two demigods here......

"It's useless to use the 'clown's wrist ability to change cards, the cards are dealt and shuffled by the waiter......"

In a flash of thought, Crane realized that only the abilities of the "soothsayer" itself seemed to be useful.

He tossed two hole cards, signaled not to follow, then picked up a chip made of metal and flipped it back and forth between his fingers.

At this time, Emilius Livitt suddenly looked up at him, then withdrew his gaze and rolled out a stack of chips.

Really...... Klein nodded inwardly unsurprised.

The last time they worked together, he knew that Admiral Emilius could distinguish between ordinary people and extraordinary people from the difference in their "position", and suspected that the other party could even judge the level of an extraordinary person, that is, "position".

However, Klein is not too worried about this, because the "Sorcerer" has a certain "secret" ability, which is also one of the special reasons why he can converge the gray mist and bless himself after he reaches Sequence 4, which makes him sure that the other party can't find out his rank, but he didn't interfere with it in advance, and he doubts that Emilius can see that he is an extraordinary person.

Therefore, he simply took the initiative to show a little problem, which seemed to be easy to see through and easy to grasp.
