The entertainment venue in front of them wasn't large; it was just a reasonably decent-looking building, and the door was dilapidated, as if it would collapse in the wind.
The girl instinctively pushed open the door, and the shouts inside instantly grew louder as everyone frantically crowded around the tables.
Due to limited space, there are only four tables inside.
"Big! Big! Big!"
"Small!"
"There's even a small casino here."
Qi Silin surveyed his surroundings. These gamblers were clearly local inhabitants, dressed in tattered clothes, yet they still had money to gamble.
Although it's not much, but...
Although the environment here is a bit basic, the chips and other items on the table are quite complete, so it seems the owner here knows what he's doing.
Qi Jiu watched as they became addicted to gambling and slowly walked inside.
After walking for a while, they realized that something quite significant was happening inside. Perhaps the surrounding noise had masked the situation, so they hadn't noticed it at first.
What happens here is something that happens in any casino.
Linde looked at the scene before him with a grim expression. He had met Joel here before, when Joel was being beaten. He couldn't even imagine what kind of life Joel was living here.
I can't eat well, I can't sleep well, and I get beaten up...
The person in front of me seemed to be the manager here. He had an arrogant air about him. He sat in a chair with his legs crossed, and his deputy was next to him.
They were tall and muscular, with clearly defined muscles on their arms; you could tell at a glance what they did for a living.
Before them lay a ragged man, covered in blood, lying on the ground like a dog struggling to survive.
But the man dared not resist at all, and even his pleading gradually faded away.
Qi Jiu's dark eyes swept over the people on the ground and quickly noticed something unusual.
"His leg is broken."
It was obvious that he had been abruptly interrupted by this group of people in front of him; no wonder he couldn't get up for so long. Not only that, he also had injuries in other parts of his body.
Hearing this, the people behind him seemed to have gotten used to it, and their faces didn't show any more expression, only Linde's face became increasingly ugly.
“Nayor…”
"Don't worry, that brat can knock out all the people you invited. Do you think he can take these few people in front of him seriously?"
They're all just brutes; if we're talking about skill, these guys in front of me probably have no experience.
Although the person in the chair seemed to be a manager here, judging from his attire, he was probably just a junior member of the management team.
They're just showing off their power now.
If Joel is captured by these people, then all his training on Death Gate Island will have been for nothing.
Hearing this, Lin De breathed a sigh of relief.
The people in front of them hadn't stopped yet. Judging by their ferocity, the man on the ground probably owed a lot of money, hence his extremely ruthless attack.
This person's life is about to get very difficult.
Qi Silin looked around at the surroundings and then at the scene of sticks clashing in front of him. As if he had thought of something, he slowly moved closer to Qi Jiu and leaned down.
"I remember, wasn't that reckless representative from Country L also a gambler?"
That's why he gambled away his position and everything he had. He was clearly the representative of the L country branch, earning money that ordinary people couldn't even dream of, yet he developed such a hobby.
The girl was taken aback, and the face of the representative from Country L subconsciously flashed into her mind, before she let out a cold laugh.
"He deserved it."
The representative from Country L back then gambled even more heavily than he does now; the amount he lost alone was more than many people could spend in a lifetime, and even less.
Keeping someone like that around is simply a disaster.
Qi Silin nodded. "A gambler's life is indeed not worth pitying."
Like the person in front of us, he's been beaten like this. If it were someone else, we might feel sorry for them, but they are not just anyone.
Gamblers are crazy; they'll risk almost anything for profit.
Therefore, they did not feel sorry for this person.
The environment wasn't exactly quiet. After the scene in front of them stopped, the person had been beaten unconscious, and there was blood all around.
But seeing this, the gamblers at the next table acted as if they hadn't seen anything and continued with their own business.
They knew perfectly well that this would be the consequence of not being able to pay back their debts, but these gamblers acted as if they didn't see it at all.
They were still shouting loudly, seemingly believing they would win millions in the next second.
"That's about it."
Seeing the man in front of her being dragged away, Qi Jiu took a step forward.
Before he could even speak, the person sitting in the chair spoke first.
"Oh, where did this little beauty come from?"
The man had dark skin, and although his clothes were cleaner than those of the local inhabitants, they weren't exactly clean either. He wasn't particularly good-looking, and he had a strange odor about him.
He was now scrutinizing Qi Jiu from head to toe with that appraising gaze.
His eyes held a disgusting expression.
Upon seeing this, Qi Silin frowned and slowly placed his large hand on his waist. Liu Yun seemed to sense the change in his master and immediately went into a state of preparation.
Wu Mei and Wu Liang stepped forward, looking like they wanted to go straight for the fight.
Linde, on the other hand, slowly took a step back, looking at the man with pity in his eyes.
You're finished~
"Oh, there's another one. Where did this beauty come from? She's so attractive, but a bit fierce."
As he spoke, he burst into laughter, revealing his yellowed teeth to Wu Mei.
"Don't be like that, little beauty. No man will like someone who's always so fierce."
As he spoke, he stood up.
Just as she was about to step forward, the people around Qi Jiu moved.
Qi Silin led the way, moving swiftly. He quickly drew the dagger from his waist and pressed it against the man's neck, the force of his wrist causing a slight trickle of blood to seep from the man's skin.
Before he could react, Liu Yun and the others drew their guns and cocked them.
Their movements were fluid and graceful; in an instant, they had already pinned the person in front of them to death.
With just a slight pull of their fingers, these lives in front of them would vanish.
The situation changed rather quickly. The slight pain in his neck brought the man to his senses, and by the time he began to observe his surroundings, he realized that he was already in a vulnerable position.
His own brothers were armed with sticks, while Qi Jiu and the others had daggers pressed against their throats, and the others had guns. It was easy to tell the difference in strength at a glance.
"No, you..."
Where is your superior?
