Since this was a special gambling game, there was no dealer in this round.

Or rather, everyone was the dealer.

When the dealer dealt the cards, each person received a face-down card first, followed by a face-up card.

On Loren’s side, the face-up card was a picture card, representing 10 points. The other face-down card remained unflipped as Loren didn’t look at it.

The other three also didn’t flip theirs, as if the one who revealed their face-down card first would lose momentum.

It’s worth mentioning that the face-up cards of the other three were also picture cards, as if they had agreed on it.

“Looks like everyone’s luck is pretty good. Anyone want to raise the bet?” one of the gambling experts asked with a smile.

Loren and the other two shook their heads in tacit agreement.

Just a probe, 1000 chips was already enough.

“No one is raising the bet. Please reveal your cards,” the dealer announced.

The three gambling experts simultaneously smiled confidently and flipped over the face-down card in front of them.

20 points! 20 points! 20 points!

The face-down cards in front of all three were a 10-point card.

Added to the other face-up picture card, each had 20 points. Even their hand composition was identical.

The corner of Loren’s mouth lifted slightly. Seems your luck is pretty good…

Loren also flipped over his face-down card at the same time.

His face-down card was also a picture card!

20 points!!

In front of Loren, two picture cards made 20 points.

When that face-down card was flipped, the people watching this game fell into an eerie silence.

The onlookers were all somewhat surprised.

This is really interesting… Loren thought to himself.

The two cards in front of each of the four people at the gambling table added up to 20 points.

The point totals were the same!

And because this game had no dealer.

It was a rather bizarre tie.

The four retrieved their bet chips, each seemingly lost in thought.

The three gambling experts silently toyed with the chips in their hands, lost in their own thoughts.

As for Loren, he silently said in his mind:

“Raven, stack Fortune.”

“As you command, Master.”

Subsequently, Raven silently applied four layers of “Fortune” to Loren.

Loren’s face remained expressionless.

The real game has begun…

The gambling round started again.

Loren tossed out 1000 chips, and the other three followed suit.

The second round of probing began.

The dealer dealt another face-down card and a face-up card to everyone.

Bizarrely, the face-up cards for all four at the table were also picture cards.

The face-up cards were again all 10 points.

Seeing this, Loren expressionlessly pushed out 3000 chips and signaled the dealer for another card.

The other three also chose to push out 3000 chips and similarly signaled the dealer for another card.

The three gambling experts and Loren performed all the same actions.

The three were trying to exert some pressure on Loren through this behavior.

Seems very confident, you three…

The dealer began dealing additional cards in turn.

Loren was dealt an Ace card, symbolizing one point.

Seeing the Ace dealt to him, Loren wasn’t surprised.

His current state had one permanent “Fortune” plus 4 stacked Fortunes.

If the card dealt by the dealer exceeded 1 point, it could only mean his face-down card wasn’t a 10-point card, but some other value.

The three other gambling experts, seeing the new Ace dealt to Loren, subtly straightened their postures.

Truly an expert!

The three gambling experts exchanged glances and tacitly made their countermove.

One gently stroked the ring on his left pinky finger.

Another silently clasped his hands together and placed them before him, as if nervous yet expectant.

The last one merely tilted his neck symbolically.

The cards for the three gambling experts were also dealt by the dealer in turn.

All were Aces!

All were 1 point!

The onlookers watching this game all secretly took a deep breath.

Although they hadn’t seen the face-down cards of the four at the table, they couldn’t help but have a guess:

“Could it be all four have 21 points?!”

“Anyone want to raise the bet?” the dealer asked at the appropriate moment.

All four shook their heads. No one spoke, all signaling the dealer they wouldn’t raise.

“No one is raising. Everyone, please reveal your cards!” The dealer’s tone unconsciously carried some excitement.

The showdown between four gambling experts was indeed spectacular!!!

Even though he was the one who dealt the cards.

He also didn’t know why he could deal such bizarre cards.

Tonight, the playing cards used in this game were all made from special materials, incompatible with any energy.

This maximized prevention against card manipulation and x-ray vision.

All energy detection devices in the casino were also turned on tonight.

Moreover, the locations of these energy detection devices were being monitored in real-time by people from the Energy Department and the three major families.

This maximized the isolation of supernatural powers and other bizarre methods.

Yet even so, the cards in front of the four looked off to anyone who glanced at them.

It was as if the four were manipulating the game with their own mysterious methods.

And the current bizarre situation seemed more like the four were fighting for control over the game’s operation.

Upon hearing the dealer, the four flipped their hole cards in turn.

Three picture cards, one 10-point card.

The three gambling experts’ hole cards were picture cards, while Loren’s hole card was a 10-point card.

Four 21 points!!

Another tie!

The four silently collected the chips in front of them.

None of the four spoke either.

The card game started again.

Is this what real gambling experts are like? Seeing it for the first time, interesting… Loren thought silently.

“Raven, let them see our true power. Hang a little Misfortune on these three experts. Not too much, don’t affect the normal progress of the game.”

Loren gave another command in his mind.

“As you command!”

The third probe began.

4000 chips appeared on the gambling table again.

Playing cards were dealt by the dealer again.

This time, a different change finally appeared at the table.

In front of the three gambling experts, each had a picture card plus a face-down card.

Although the picture card represented 10 points.

The expressions of the three gambling experts, however, turned somewhat ugly.

They stopped staring at their own cards, all looking at Loren with grave expressions.

In front of Loren, a face-down card and a 10-point card still appeared, but a smile was on his face.

The onlookers also sensed the change in atmosphere at the table.

“Has control of the game been seized by the expert invited by the Energy Department?” This was the shared thought of the crowd.

Davis Feller, standing to the side, also silently lit a cigarette, casting a disdainful look at the people from the three major families, his expression intriguing.

Do you understand the weight of being a “God’s Favored One of the Nature Sect”? Hahahaha…

Davis laughed inwardly.

“Anyone still want to raise the bet? Everyone.” The dealer performed his duty well.

The dealer was also looking forward to who would win this time.
