There are so many places in every country. Located in the middle zone between black and white, there is a set of rules of its own, like a poison, which attracts people with fragile will or crazy ideas. Success and failure are only a moment.

Even in the leisurely folk style of Saint Enluth, the same applies. "Underground casinos" are particularly difficult to operate because they involve too many countries-some are even high-ranking officials. And in all fairness, Saint Enluth, as a "venue", will still receive a lot of benefits from the casino.

Especially with the rise of the mainland's economy, this situation is getting worse. And Saint Enluth is a "harbour" country after all, and smugglers from all over will gather here.

But what does this have to do with Miao Zhenghong's me?

The upright, upright old lady knew that I came to this place is not as simple as a fight.

The mysterious and dangerous above-ground casino is an extremely ordinary tavern on the surface. Workers who had just unloaded the cargo at the port gathered here to eat meat and drink, and brag loudly. The undried perspiration covered them like a layer of oil.

The masculinity in the tavern is too heavy. As a female and wearing a cloak, I was not surprisingly the focus of everyone. The first time I came to this kind of place, I was very embarrassed to stick to Arthur. The circulating wind surrounds us, isolating the strong sweat in the air.

"A glass of white water."

I held Arthur tightly with one hand, and the golden magical array in the other hand unfolded, and a handful of fine golden magic cores fell out, making a very beautiful sound.

This is the sound of huge sums of money.

Although I was born as a princess, I had to split a penny in order to raise a silly son. My eyes straightened instantly. The clerk behind the counter didn't accept it immediately, but raised his head and looked at Arthur blankly.

"It's a huge sum of money. What you want to go to is the'killer whale' room." Different from the rough and sloppy appearance. The person's voice was hoarse and low, and he spoke with honorifics, "But out of necessity, we can't let in an unidentified person. At least, can you take off your hood and let me see your face." "

"It's just a very ordinary face."

Arthur smiled. Passed a dark blue gem to the clerk.

This time he accepted it. He turned his hand and threw us a very thin magic core engraved with runes, which was caught by Arthur.

"The innermost room."

"Trouble. Also. Don't stare at her secretly, I'll be upset."

"...I was impolite."

Arthur smiled back. Then he took my hand and walked to the innermost room.

I lowered my head and followed Arthur's footsteps silently. As he walked through the crowd, his dark blue eyes looked at me.

"Do you care?"

"...Well. I always feel like I'm still too tender, and it's a hindrance for you."

"Everyone was like this in the beginning, and I was no exception."

I was stunned, raised my head, and fell into the unfathomable sea.

"fine."

Arthur put my broken hair behind his ears with his other hand.

"I'm on your side."

...

Behind the locked door is an "elevator" protected by a barrier. After sensing the magic core engraved with the same rune on Arthur's body, it opened the gap for one person to pass through.

But fortunately, I, who was holding hands with Arthur, also allowed it to pass. After the last piece of clothing swept across the gap, the barriers merged again, opening the "elevator" facing us.

It is a golden hollow iron cage, inside which you can see the outside world. Arthur put the magic core on the table inside. The same magical array unfolded again, like a green flower cage glowing with fluorescence, illuminating the entire iron cage.

At the same time, the originally broken metal tube grows, bends, and connects, and finally becomes a whole.

"Liche. Standing behind me."

Arthur called softly. I pulled down the brim of my hat and walked around half a circle compulsively, from the door to behind him.

My instinct tells me that this is not the place I should touch. And my intuition has never been good or bad, and bad.

"If you feel uneasy, you can hold my arm."

"...No need. Just one hand."

For the first time, I put my hand into his. The young Wang chuckled lightly, and he could hear from the pleasant low voice that he enjoyed my rare dependence.

And soon. My intuition was confirmed.

A transparent barrier is attached to the iron cage, so that the sparks of metal friction will not gradually come in. And thanks to this, I can see the scenes on different floors.

level one. Only people.

Second floor. The magic core piled up on the table like a hill.

the third floor. Shiny gems and ornaments.

The fourth floor. Magic guide.

The fifth floor.

"...!!!"

Shock, fear, unbelievable-almost painful acceptance. The complex emotions changed several times between the constricted black pupils, and finally calmed down with difficulty.

"It's hard to accept. Liche."

The voice of the king of insight into the hearts of the people is calm, as if he had expected all of this a long time ago.

"How can I accept it! Normal people... sorry."

The hand holding Arthur was clenched tightly because of the emotional out of control. After realizing my gaffe, I quickly let go of my hand, but was caught by Arthur the moment I left.

At this moment, the "door" opened.

The green spherical magical array expanded again, and the metal tube forming the "cage" retracted to both sides again like branches, opening the way to us.

The sixth floor.

From shallow to deep. With the “investment” of each floor, more and more floors are decorated more and more luxuriously. At this level, it looks like a luxury hotel. Waiters in tuxedos are walking on the red carpet with silver trays, and people in colorful costumes lie lazily on the sofa. The bright wine swayed in the crystal glass, the mouth of the glass refracted cold light under the ambiguous dim light.

It is obviously warm light, but it is completely different from Baide's.

The sound of the "elevator door" opening is like a rotten grape, emitting a fragrance that attracts people here. They forgot to come over with hollow, gazes, all kinds of colors, the only thing in common is the same coldness.

This is not looking at human eyes anymore.

The hemp cloak concealed the two of us. Arthur didn't say much, just took my hand and walked slowly towards the deepest point. People who are out of place always appear to be extremely dangerous, except for unbridled sight, no one stops in front of us.

"Have you gotten over yet. Liche."

I raised my head and looked at Arthur in front of me in a daze. Those dark blue eyes were hidden in the shadow of the brim of the hat, which made people feel very gentle inexplicably.

"... Did it hurt you just now?" After a moment's pause. I honestly said the words that appeared in my head at this moment, "I'm sorry. I suddenly didn't control my strength--"

"puff."

"Hey!"

"Feel sorry."

Arthur smiled apologetically at me, then turned his head back, "As expected of Liche. This is the first thing that comes to mind at this time."

"So cute."

"Hey--!"

The blond Wang smiled happily, his voice was really inexplicable. Knowing that I had to suffer in front of Arthur, I smashed my mouth, and honestly was led away by him. The original heavy mood is a little lighter.

What I see on the fifth floor is people.

various people. There are men and women, and even pregnant women and children. Most of them have attractive looks, beautiful hair color and pupil color. Simply put, although they are of different types, they are all people who will be "liked" in society because of their external appearance.

It's like gems of all kinds.

And their role is no different from "jewels".

Either naked or draped in a tulle. Either crying or numbness. Some were handcuffed or hinged and some did not-the "elevator" moved through the floors too fast. In this moment like switching slides, I can't observe anything in detail.

But people's stress response is indeed powerful. My mind that "cleared as soon as I slept" when endorsing the book was recorded like a camera at this time.

Then he pressed my head forcibly, forcing me to look at this photo.

People are commodities on the fifth floor. This kind of thing happened in a country where "I" is the princess. What's more terrifying is that there are such small children...even pregnant women--!

"Don't think about it again. Liche."

A deep voice poured over my soul like ice water. I was silent for a moment, then nodded.

"Sorry, no... Arthur, you seem to have something important today. Don't worry. I won't let my emotions affect you."

"But you ask me in your heart,'Where the **** is this'."

"Curiosity is nothing but it's still too difficult. You can bear it a little bit! ... Or what do I want to eat for dinner from now on?"

"puff--"

Arthur laughed again. I laughed happily.

"Well... this is a real ‘casino’, and ‘gambling’ is an evil deeply rooted in human nature. As long as the willpower is not firm enough, it will be swallowed up."

"The people who come here have many purposes. Since the magic core has become a unit of measuring the value of items, the simplest and most direct way is for the magic core."

"Enough magic cores. The purpose becomes the ‘what you want’."

The king's voice was low and smiling, but he was merciless. I looked up at Arthur's handsome profile, and asked in a low voice, "What about after that?...What are the people on this level for?"

"Simply enjoy the pleasure of'gambling'. And'deal'."

Dark blue eyes looked at me, and inside were the gentleness and pampering that I was familiar with, "Even if it is a troublesome thing, the'loser' has to do everything possible to help you get it. Of course, except for lunatics, no one will easily put it. Let's make this kind of bet."

"And I came today just for information."

"Regardless of the nature, this is a good place to trade intelligence. There is even intelligence on the other continent in the east."

The hem, which was slightly raised backwards due to inertia, fell and stopped moving. Arthur stopped in front of a door engraved with "killer whale" and said the last word before opening the door with the magic core.

"Maybe you will need it in the future. Liche."

"……thanks."

The magical array of glowing green has been unfolded. Before stepping into the territory of this "whale", I made up the second half of the sentence in my heart.

——But sure enough. It's better that this kind of place has disappeared.

Jiamei, you still lack realistic beatings. Although I have encountered a lot of bad things, the malice of the big world has not been eaten much.

But if it's her, even if you encounter it, you will be able to overcome it in the end.

There are pros and cons to the casino. But Jiamei’s character cannot be tolerated (after all, it’s her own country). We can all see this person's mobility, she will really do it.

If you change your personality to be colder, it's another way to do it.

[Suddenly I found that the heroine with the coldest personality seems to have the best heart.]

[Wait later, let's try this kind of female protagonist who is a little cold and sensible. 】
