Chapter 75: If You Don’t Gamble, You Won’t Know when Your Luck Will Come.
Asaches doesn't like drinking black coffee, he likes the sweet taste. It's just that Mentor Calvin has always had extremely low material requirements... He took a sip of coffee brewed by Mentor Calvin, and frowned because of the bitter taste.
Robert was standing behind the Calvin scholar at this time, not looking away.
"I know you came to me about Robert." The Calvinist thought for a moment and said, "But before I answer you, tell me... how much do you know, Asaches."
"Not much." Boss Asaxes shook his head. After taking a look at the expression on the Calvinist scholar's face, he immediately added: "But it should be quite a lot, for example... [holy water]."
The Calvinist's expression changed slightly, "How much do you know about [Holy Water]?"
Mr. Azashes took a deep breath and said, "I wasn't sure before I came here, but now... I think I definitely don't know as much as you, teacher."
"This day will eventually come." The Calvinist breathed out slowly, "Before discussing the issue of [holy water], Asaxes, do you know why I traveled to unknown areas back then."
"I know." Mr. Asaches nodded: "Are you more leisurely?"
"..." The Calvin scholar couldn't help but open his mouth, and then his eyes glared, unusually harsh.
Asaxes felt that this stern look was still far behind Miss Youye... He chuckled and said, "Teacher, tell me."
Scholar Calvin said: "I am going to find Master Morrigan's footprints."
Someone who can be mentored by Calvin and become a master?
Mr. Asaxes couldn't help but wonder: "Teacher, who is this Master Morrigan?"
"Two hundred years ago, there was a large-scale crusade in [Free City]. During this turmoil, a large number of academic works were burned, hundreds of scholars were imprisoned, and some were even imprisoned. Sent to the stake, their descendants were defined as the bloodline of sinners, and exiled to barren lands outside the Seven Capitals. I have told you this history."
Asaxes nodded, and immediately his heart moved, "Then Master Morrigan, was it the cause of that turmoil?"
"Master Morrigan was the source of the original turmoil." Scholar Calvin said seriously: "At the beginning, she published an academic work, but she did not expect that this work did not bring her honor, but instead caused a huge disaster."
"And this work?"
"It has something to do with [Holy Water]." The Calvin scholar said solemnly: "It may even be a method of making [Holy Water]. We can find from some scrap information that survived from that year that [Holy Water] seems to have the ability to help people improve their level of divine favor. , and even pray for the ability to merge levels."
Mr. Asaches remembered Fache's description of [Holy Water]... This thing can even restore the ability of people of sinner blood to pray.
"Isn't it a good thing to be able to increase the level of the gods, or even merge with the level? Why is it banned... or even regarded as heresy?" Mr. Asaches couldn't help but shook his head.
"Whether it is the level of the divine family or the level of the petitioner, it is actually a reference to measure our piety to the faith." The Calvin scholar said: "It also shows the problem of our loyalty to the saints from the side... If If this standard is not raised due to inner piety, but is raised by borrowing external forces, then does the meaning of faith itself still exist?"
"This..." Mr. Asaches began to understand the seriousness of the matter.
"This kind of false belief is obviously not something that the Supreme Beings are willing to accept." The Calvin scholar sighed: "But the actual situation is that by taking [holy water] and praying, the power of will that can be generated is even greater. Be purer.”
"More pure? How is this possible?" Mr. Asaches couldn't help being shocked. "Teacher, didn't you just say that this is a false belief?"
"That's right, that's why it's ironic." The Calvin scholar smiled bitterly: "We pray devoutly every day, and the ascetics even discipline ourselves for many years, but the results are not as good as... some things that are obtained for nothing. So, for What is the meaning of the faith of the Supreme Beings?”
Azashes remained silent... The appearance of [Holy Water] can greatly increase the appearance of will power, but it also implies shaking the foundation of the supreme beings as objects of faith. It is really an extremely sharp double-edged sword. Extremely dangerous.
"In that case, teacher..." Mr. Asaches suddenly raised his head, "Why are you still looking for the things left by Master Morrigan? You...do you also want to make [holy water]?"
"I do want to make [Holy Water]." Scholar Calvin nodded slowly.
Mr. Azashes suddenly slammed the table with excitement and stood up, "Teacher, this joke of yours is the worst joke I've heard this year! I hope you can tell it again!"
His gaze was like a cheetah's, staring intently at his mentor.
"I want to make [holy water]." The Calvin scholar said calmly.
Azaches was still staring at Scholar Calvin, but his eyes gradually became blurry... He shook his head vigorously, only to feel a strong dizziness coming over him.
Plop!
He fell to the ground.
The Calvin scholar sighed slowly and whispered: "Only if you learn how to make [holy water] can you find it..."
As he spoke, the Calvin scholar slowly stood up and looked at Robert behind him, "Robert, I brought you out of the place of sin and spent ten years getting you close to Balam. ...Now, we can finally find a glimmer of hope, right?"
Highly recommended, [app ] is really good and worth installing for all book lovers. It is supported by both Android and Apple phones!
"Yes, Mr. Calvin. For ten years, even if I continued to use [holy water]... I finally discovered the secret of Balam."
"Then... we have one last thing to do." Scholar Calvin nodded, and then looked at Asaches on the ground, his eyes gradually focused, "Prove that [the Saint]... is wrong."

The roulette wheel made of cherry wood is spinning crazily...the white balls are bouncing on the roulette wheel, and the people surrounding the roulette wheel are shouting something crazily at this moment.
Among them was Nan Xiaonan, who was shouting loudly like the gamblers around her.
So far, she has almost lost... She has this kind of wish crystal card that she withheld after buying bread last time.
You don't know if you don't bet, but after you bet, you find out that the power of wish in this crystal card is like a huge sum of money.
As the saying goes, people with scattered wealth are happy... Miss Nan, who lost everything in the last round, was quickly squeezed out by the gamblers... Her eyes were distracted, as if her body had been hollowed out, and she sat blankly At the corner.
It's just a very secret place... and a casino with many projects is operated here. The reason why she was able to come here was the result of her hard work on the food stall owner for most of the night.
Don't get me wrong, it's not the kind of effort to compete with each other. She just continued to discuss her gambling experience with the owner of the food stall. We even felt that we met at a late date. In the end, the owner of the food stall slapped Nan Xiaonan on the thigh and resolutely moved her to Nan Xiaonan. Brought this place where gold was sold.
In the [Free City], there is actually such a place that inspires human primitive desires... At first, Nan Xiaonan didn't believe it, but now that he has lost everything, he doesn't even want to believe it.
Those bosses from the Sheriff's Department don't care... If someone is littering at the airport, they should be caught, okay?
"Miss Nan, why don't you continue playing?"
The owner of the snack stall came to Nan Xiaonan with a smile... This guy didn't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, but he actually held a lot of chips, looking like he had just won them back.
"I lost everything." Nan Xiaonan said with a gloomy look on her face: "If I bet again, I can only lose my underwear."
"Your underwear is worthless." The owner of the snack stall still smiled, "At least, it's not the popular kind."
"...Then there is no other way." Nan Xiaonan shrugged, "I can only leave. When I have money, I can come back...I will definitely come to this place for revenge next time!"
But the food stall owner suddenly said: "Hey! Miss Nan, there is no need to be so anxious. You also know what is going on at the gambling table. One moment, another moment, maybe you can make a comeback in the next one?"
Nan Xiaonan squinted and said, "Can you pledge your underwear here? If so, I will make a comeback."
With that said, Miss Nan reached out and grabbed the chips in the arms of the snack stall owner without saying a word, just like a hungry dog grabbing food.
"That's not okay! This is what I won... Hey! Don't bite! You are such a dog!" The food stall owner was shocked. "You just want to make a comeback with funds. There is a way, there is a way!"
"What can we do?" Nan Xiaonan stopped immediately.
The food stall owner said: "You can try this method. Although I don't know if it will work in the end, but you come with me first."
Nan Xiaonan nodded doubtfully.
Soon, under the guidance of the snack stall owner, they quickly walked out of the room. The snack stall owner said: "Actually, these generous guests are treated very favorably here... I see your whole prayer sheet. If you are willing to lose all your crystal cards, the casino will definitely welcome you."
"I really think you're laughing at me?"
"That's not what I meant!" the snack stall owner said with a frightened look on his face: "But for generous guests, this place really gives preferential treatment... Well, this is it, go in by yourself, whether you can succeed or not is up to you. ”
With that said, the snack stall owner opened a door, and Nan Xiaonan looked in subconsciously.
I found that this was a relatively ordinary study room. There was a middle-aged man in a suit and leather shoes sitting in the study room, and there was also a mysterious lady with a hot figure who did not look like a serious family at first glance.
However, they saw the owner of the snack stall push the door open, quickly say hello to the people inside, then turn around and run away... Nan Xiaonan was startled, then raised his head, held out his chest, and tentatively walked in. In a study room.
"I am the manager here." The man made a gesture to sit down. "You can call me [Mr. Agent]."
"Mr. Agent?" Nan Xiaonan frowned, but also sat down, "Does this mean that this casino does not belong to you?"
"Just call me [Mr. Agent]." The manager... [Agent] smiled slightly at this time: "I heard that you want some funds, right."
"That guy brought me here under your instruction, right?" Nan Xiaonan suddenly sneered.
[Agent] said: "We will strictly check everyone who enters here... After all, we also want to ensure that the guests here are as safe as possible. Madam, please take a look at your destiny, don't There are too many, just the page of personal information is enough. I am more curious about who would have such a high amount of petitioner crystal cards."
Nan Xiaonan was silent for a moment, then glanced at the hot secretary behind the [agent].
The secretary was looking at her with a smile, but she was holding a fruit knife in her hand and picking her nails.
Nan Xiaonan shrugged and waved his hand in front of him... The copycat destiny system produced by the maid lady slowly unfolded.
[Agent] waved his hand at this time, and saw the female secretary nodded, walked directly in front of Nan Xiaonan, and began to observe carefully.
At this moment, Nan Xiaonan felt a little uneasy...Who knows if this copycat can resist?
Soon, the secretary withdrew his gaze, but looked at Nan Xiaonan with a surprised look, then returned to the [Agent] and whispered something.
After a while, the [Agent] frowned.
Nan Xiaonan felt that things were starting to get a little bad, so she wanted to grab the pen on the table, but Mr. [Agent] showed a bright smile at this time, "It turns out that he is a member of that family, no wonder he owns such a high-priced crystal It's stuck... I'm sorry, Miss Nan, this is just a necessary procedure. I hope you can know that we have always provided very considerate services to our valuable guests."
A member of that family? Which family? Nan Xiaonan remembered that in the copycat destiny system given to her by the maid, the identity given to her was that of a village girl living in the countryside?
"So?" Nan Xiaonan frowned subconsciously.
Mr. [Agent] smiled and said: "Financial issues are not a problem at all... As long as Miss Nan can sign this contract, it will be fine."
An exquisite document was immediately opened in front of Nan Xiaonan.
She picked it up and looked at it carefully, "...I voluntarily obey the casino's arrangements, including but not limited to participating in the research and development of new projects until the debt is paid off. So, what is the research and development of new projects?"
[Agent] said: "Since we are running a casino, Miss Nan, what else do you think the new project could be? Of course it is a project that can better serve customers."
"Ha..." Nan Xiaonan suddenly sneered, "Do you think I'm stupid? I won't gamble anymore... Goodbye."
Nan Xiaonan stood up directly, turned around and left.
But at this time, four powerful men appeared outside the study door... Nan Xiaonan blinked, "Isn't this script a bit cliche?"
"As long as it works." [Agent] said with a smile.
So Miss Nan stepped forward without saying a word.
Then Miss Nan was carried back.
"I thought you were capable, but it seems like it's nothing more than that." Then, [Agent] grabbed her finger, dipped some Indonesian into it, and pressed it on the contract, "Take her down."
"You can't do this! You will be sent to the stake!!"
Miss Nan finally screamed loudly.
