The subordinates of Les were so frightened that they didn't dare to move. They knew very well that if a fight broke out, they would be the ones to suffer. Moreover, given the current situation, their boss had already lost everything; what reason did they have to risk their lives for him?
Chimu Jiu observed the chaotic scene before her with a cold gaze. She said nothing, merely watching the expressions and reactions on Ke's and the middle-aged man's faces. Although Ke's complexion was grim, his slightly narrowed eyes betrayed his true thoughts.
Les may have been invited by him, but the thought of losing another equal opponent brought him some relief. After all, in his view, this situation was more beneficial than detrimental.
Tsing Lin, who had discarded his cards behind them, also let out a sigh of relief. It seemed that the ancient saying "A wise man knows when to retreat" suited him perfectly.
"Mr. Les, please complete the online transaction as soon as possible," the beautiful dealer's voice was noticeably colder than before. As for whether there were any issues with the cards, everyone in the room was well aware that this gambling game was free from any cheating.
However, if Les truly lost this money, he would face ruin and insurmountable debt. Moreover, once he stepped out of this underground gambling den, those powerful figures he had offended in the past would be ready to eliminate him at any moment.
Just a minute ago, he had mocked Chimu Jiu for not having enough funds to place a bet. Little did he know that just one minute later, he would plummet from cloud nine into an abyss of despair. He had initially thought that winning or losing would only amount to hundreds of billions; he never expected it to be a pair of black spades—a pair of the highest black spades!
Les seemed stunned into silence, unable to move or speak for a long time, repeatedly muttering "impossible" like a broken record.
Seeing this, the beautiful dealer subtly signaled to her brothers in the underground gambling house. Within three seconds, Les was forced to complete the transaction on the holographic interface.
Meanwhile, Chimu Jiu's holographic amount jumped rapidly, reaching billions in the blink of an eye. The numbers quickly stabilized and ceased moving altogether.
"Tsk, poor fool," Chimu Jiu remarked disdainfully as she glanced at the still holographic display.
"Miss Beauty, the remaining funds will be covered by the underground gambling house," the dealer whispered softly.
As his words fell, the holographic display began to roll once more. It only came to a halt when the amount reached the required figure. Satisfied, Late Twilight nodded and signaled to the dealer that she had received the full payment.
The underground gambling house served as an intermediary, allowing gamblers to fully enjoy the thrill of betting while also helping them resolve their financial issues. This service was undoubtedly one of the key reasons that attracted numerous gamblers to their establishment. If a customer was unable to pay their bets, the underground gambling house would step in and cover the costs.
While this practice helped maintain the reputation of the underground gambling house, it meant that Les had to face unprecedented pressure and enormous risks. Once the gambling house settled his debts, he would be burdened with heavy liabilities, forced to become a puppet of the organization.
Les understood the implications all too well; he knew he could not bear such consequences. So when the beautiful dealer announced that he could no longer continue gambling, despair washed over him.
The members of the underground gambling house ruthlessly seized Les once again, dragging him out of the casino. His fate seemed sealed as he was caught in an inescapable whirlpool.
With the heavy doors of the casino closing behind him, the leader of one of the largest human trafficking organizations faded into obscurity. The underground gambling house continued to thrive in this world filled with darkness and desire, waiting for its next prey to arrive. Yet it seemed that those within the casino had only just begun to realize who the true prey was and who the real hunter truly was.
