Gu Lingxiao's entire body was covered in dark purple blood, but he showed no signs of exhaustion.

"Humans are so peculiar. Although they are weaker than ordinary creatures, their endurance is astonishing," t10 said, looking at Gu Lingxiao from a god-like perspective.

The other gamblers, who were not visible, were starting to feel uneasy as the piece chosen by t10 had not yet died. They wondered if they would lose the first game.

What kind of piece did T10 choose that could survive for so long amidst a horde of zombies?

After some time, the black and white mist in the center of the round table suddenly spoke, "The first gambler's piece killed 990 zombies. White wins the first round."

The moment the words left his mouth, a black chip materialized in front of the second and third gamblers. These two aliens belonged to the black side and had just placed their bets.

Two chips flew directly to T10. "Congratulations on winning the first duel. These are their life-or-death chips. They will all be cashed out after the duel ends."

T10 put away his chips. He had just wanted to use these two chips to kill the second and third gamblers and eliminate them, but he couldn't.

The other gamblers breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that T10's pieces had hunted only ten more zombies than the original first-place player. It seemed that T10's chosen pieces were only more durable, and their combat power was probably not as strong as their own pieces.

Since the time taken for T10 pieces is almost twice that of the other gamblers, it's obvious that they only gained ten more pieces in that much time.

Having good stamina only means dying slower, but what they don't know is that Gu Lingxiao didn't die at all, and could even continue for a long time. However, since his numbers exceeded the original number one, and he was the only one left with no other pieces that could surpass him, he was directly judged to be the winner.

The outcome is already decided; there's absolutely no need to continue.

"Then let's begin the second round of the betting."

The second and third gamblers' mentality only changes slightly, mainly because they can still win back what they lost, so there is no major emotional fluctuation.

"Betting begins, Black goes first this time."

"Wait, what's the content of this match?" the second gambler asked.

"You'll know after you place your bet"

This leaves the second gambler unsure of what to bet on. Besides this one and the last one, there are four more rounds to go. Should they wait a bit longer?

But wasn't the very reason I forcibly used the gambling ability this time to successfully enter the Chaotic Region? If I didn't bet a lot so that T10 had no other bets to wager and was forced to use their entry into the Chaotic Region as a bargaining chip, there was no way I would have gotten him to bring it up on his own initiative.

In the end, he still didn't dare to gamble on all the creatures involved in the entire Ascendant Project.

"I'm betting one of my abilities."

"Place your bet on the white side"

Originally, it was the fifth gambler on T10's side who should have placed the bet, but he only placed a tiny amount, resulting in an unequal bet. So the sixth gambler stepped in to add to the bet, but he only added a small amount as well.

This means that the remaining portion needs to be replenished by t10.

I'm betting three capability modules.

The larger size of T10 has led to an imbalance in the number of chips.

"Please continue betting, Black." This time it was the third gambler's turn. Seeing that there was still room for improvement, he passed the bet to the next gambler to add to the bet. He followed suit and added a little bit. The seventh gambler then added to the bet.

The seventh gambler also only added a little something and handed it over to the eighth gambler, Poison Dragon.

"Ha, I wager a single scale from my body."

The stakes remained unequal, and it was the second gambler's turn.

After several rounds, the bets were finally evened out.

"Now let's begin drawing cards. This time, the order will be determined by the dice. The lower the number on the three dice, the earlier the cards will be drawn. The gambler with the highest dice score will also receive additional benefits. Let's begin."

Three dice are placed in front of each gambler.

The dice spun simultaneously, and even these Venerable Ones and Extraordinary Beings couldn't see it clearly. After a few seconds, the dice stopped rolling.

The total points of t10 are 9, which is neither high nor low.

The second gambler's points were 12.

The third gambler 6

Fourth gambler 13

The fifth gambler 7

The sixth gambler 15

The Seventh Gambler 8

The Poison Dragon is 10

The order was quickly set, and the third gambler drew first.

The 3 of Spades was used on the Poison Dragon without hesitation.

Poison Dragon tolerated it because he chose the black side, but his pieces might be doomed.

Next up was the fifth gambler, who drew the 6 of diamonds and chose to use it on the second gambler.

The seventh player drew the Queen of Hearts. Since the seventh gambler's piece died, this card was directly used on the bound second gambler's piece. A die was rolled in front of the second gambler and the number stopped at 1.

"Directional ability, strength ability"

After the dice stopped rolling, a line of text appeared. Only the second gambler could see this text, so the other gamblers didn't know what kind of ability it was.

Next up is t10's turn. A card floats to the front of him, the Jack of Hearts. "Not bad luck."

A die also appeared in front of t10, and after spinning, it stopped at 2.

"Shape-oriented capability, rapid regeneration"

Whether it was a coincidence or something else, they actually drew the ability that Gu Lingxiao originally possessed.

Next up is the Poison Dragon. The Poison Dragon, who had originally planned to give up on his piece, was overjoyed. "Hehehe, I told you my luck has always been good! 10 of Hearts!"

They chose to increase the strength of their pieces, not only eliminating all previous reductions but also significantly enhancing them.

The second gambler drew the 2 of hearts and also chose to strengthen his pieces.

The fourth gambler, playing the 2 of Diamonds, obviously couldn't choose to strengthen the opponent's 10th piece, so he chose to strengthen the fifth gambler's piece.

Finally, the sixth gambler from the white team remained.

The player drew the 4 of Diamonds and unanimously chose to strengthen the piece for the second gambler.

After the cards were drawn, the strongest piece was currently the second gambler's, followed by Gu Lingxiao, since he had an extra ability.

"After drawing cards, you can now choose whether to use any cards you previously reserved. If you reserved any cards but did not use them, they will be used immediately after the final draw."

"No," the fourth gambler decisively replied. He was the only one who still had a card left unused: the Jack of Spades. It would reduce the power of one of his pieces, and the only piece with that power was the second gambler's. How could he use it now?

"Now let's examine the details of the second round of the contest. One side is the pursuer, and the other is the fleeing side. The fleeing side cannot initiate an attack on the pursuer. If the pursuer attacks, the fleeing side cannot kill the pursuer in retaliation. The contest lasts for three days. The fleeing side wins as long as one of their pieces is still alive or under control. The pursuer wins by killing or controlling all of the fleeing side's pieces."

"The fleeing team can revive their killed teammates after each counterattack that leaves the pursuing team powerless to resist."
