Chapter 50

After entering the "East Balam Veteran Officers Club", Klein had just handed over his cane and hat to his valet Enuni, when he saw Colonel Calvin, who worked for the Luen Ministry of Defense, wearing an army uniform, holding a glass of red wine, and waiting. In the lobby.

The officer with a donkey face smiled and raised his glass to Dwayne Dantès:

"haven't seen you for a long time."

"It's true that it's been a while." Klein walked over with a smile.

Colonel Calvin immediately stretched out his right hand:

"Congratulations, you did a pretty good job this time, and everyone is very satisfied."

"I'm also very satisfied." Klein expressed the meaning of happy cooperation with Ruen's subtlety, and extended his right hand to shake the other party.

Calvin withdrew his hand, glanced at Mr. Macht next to Dawn Dantès, sighed and said with a smile:

"When you first introduced Dawn, I didn't quite believe your vision. Now I understand why you can become a member of the House of Commons."

"Everyone who has been with Dawn can easily conclude that he is an expert in this field." Councilor Macht also accepted Mr. Colonel's compliment with Ruen's subtlety.

Calvin withdrew his gaze, took a sip of the red wine, looked at Dawn Dantès with a smile, and asked chattingly:

"How much did you earn this time?

"Don't worry, I'm not trying to lower the price later, but just out of curiosity."

"Gold worth 20,000 pounds." Klein answered with an intermediate number.

In fact, he made 25,000 pounds, but paid 10,000 pounds to the messenger lady, and only made 15,000 pounds.

Colonel Calvin nodded:

"Yes, if you need to convert those gold bars into gold coins, I can introduce you to the people from the Royal Mint.

"How is it? Did you find anything unusual in Maysangye's territory this time?"

Klein didn't think about it, and said directly:

"Have!

"He has a place called Resurrection Square,

Destroyed by lightning. "

"I know that." Colonel Calvin responded with a slightly dignified expression.

Then you probably don't know that it's the lightning made by the person in front of you... Klein laughed, and said instead:

"Also, Meisangyesi seems to maintain a fragile balance among multiple forces, but he has actually secretly joined a certain party. Of course, I don't know who it is."

He never thought of betraying the Church of the God of Knowledge and Wisdom, but just revealed a little bit to win the trust of the Loen military.

"The only thing that is certain is that it's not us." Colonel Calvin nodded deeply.

"Probably not from Intis." Klein helped them rule out a wrong option.

Colonel Calvin gave an "hmm":

"That's okay. Most of the forces around Mesanjes are supported by Intis people. If he wants to expand, he must not avoid these. At that time, maybe we will be able to sell weapons again."

Having said that, he raised his glass:

"The storm is on the top, may everyone make a fortune together."

As believers of the Evernight Goddess, Klein and Councilor Macht could only smile at this and did not respond directly.

After taking another sip of red wine, Calvin pointed to the second floor:

"Dawn, I'm looking for you today to play cards with a big shot, Texas."

"Which big shot?" Klein asked with great interest.

Calvin's expression became a little more serious, and he said with an inconspicuous smile:

"Admiral Amyrius, he has been reactivated and currently leads the Ministry of Defense."

Admiral Amyrius... the admiral whose younger brother was removed from the post of governor, his mistress was eroded by the "Mother Tree of Desire", and he himself lost the position of supreme commander of the Central Sonia Sea Navy? I have worked with him, and even pretended to be him for a while... Sure enough, for a demigod, as long as he doesn't go too far and is willing to endure, he will always get out of the trough... Klein recalled Olavi The various things that happened on the island made me feel a little bit emotional for a while.

For this Admiral Amyrius Leavitt, he still felt a little guilty in his heart. Although most of the things that happened at that time had nothing to do with him, the mutation of the other party's mistress was ultimately caused by the desire of the "Mother Tree of Desire". Control him to cause.

"That is to say, our cooperation in the future requires the approval of the admiral?" Klein asked in a daze.

"That's right." Colonel Calvin nodded, pointing to the stairs leading to the second floor, "Let's go up."

When he came to the second floor, he stopped in front of a dark red door that opened across from him. Calvin turned his head and glanced at Dawn Dantès:

"Your task today is to lose money."

lose money? Klein looked Calvin up and down a few times, and the corner of his mouth turned up a little bit:

"I will work hard."

Councilor Macht next to him laughed and said:

"Actually, you don't need to be too deliberate. Admiral Amyrius is very good at poker. Even if you want to win money, it is almost impossible. Hehe, I lose every time. Hey, I just hope that I don't lose too much today. Otherwise, I I dare not go home.”

Klein nodded thoughtfully:

"I only brought £200 in cash, isn't that enough?"

"It's definitely not enough." Colonel Calvin said with a chuckle, "I've exchanged 1,000 pounds of chips for you, just remember to return them when you come over later."

Luen's senior barristers, on the surface, only earn about 1,000 pounds a year... You corrupt people... Klein looked Calvin up and down again.

Unconsciously, the colonel raised his hand and knocked on the door.

After waiting for a while, the opposite door creaked back, revealing the scene inside.

It was a hall covered with thick soft carpets, without much furniture, it looked quite empty.

In the center of the hall, there is a card table for more than a dozen people, surrounded by luxurious high-back chairs.

On the edge of the hall, there are furniture inlaid with gold, statues carved from marble, coffee tables with books and newspapers, and a set of sofas made of leather.

Klein glanced and saw Amyrius Leavitt sitting at the top. This admiral hasn't changed much from before. His black hair is neatly combed back, his blue eyes are dark and deep, and the corners of his mouth droop slightly. , without a beard on his face, with a staid and serious demeanor, wearing dark blue clothes with epaulettes, every detail is not sloppy, and he is extremely serious.

Turning his gaze, Klein found another "acquaintance":

He has thick but not messy black eyebrows, short and hard hair of the same color, dark blue and almost black eyes, a high nose bridge like a mountain peak, and a large beard extending around his mouth. He has a deep outline, a long face, and cold lines. Very tough guy taste.

This is the deputy chief of MI9, Qonas Kilgor!

This is one of Klein's goals when he returns to Backlund. He is a middleman for human trafficking between the Witch Sect and a faction of the royal family, and an accomplice of the great smog in Backlund!

The deputy chief of the major general had unusually broad shoulders, stretched his white shirt and black vest extremely tight, and was concentrating on playing Texas Hold'em.

There are two, no, three demigods on a card table, how can this card be played? Interesting... Klein found a seat and sat down, observing the other people at the card table.

During this process, the waiter delivered a large stack of chips, worth a total of 1,000 pounds.

In the first few rounds, Klein looked at the cards and threw them away. He acted very cautiously. He seemed to never raise or call if he didn't get a good hand.

Admiral Amyrius's style was exactly the opposite of his, he was not conservative at all, he almost called all hands, kept raising bets, and was extremely aggressive.

All the games that he participated in rarely reached the showdown stage. Most people couldn't bear the oppression and the majesty that comes with the admiral. Someone tried to catch Amyrius Leavitt's bluff, but when he encountered the general's four nines, his face immediately turned pale, as if he had been sentenced to death by a judge.

Qonas Kilgor is another style, he will lose a hand from time to time, but the chip total is less, it doesn't have much impact, and when the next hand after the loss, he often succeeds in clearing the last hand The chip that wins him makes the other party have to spend money to buy new chips.

Why bother? Why use abilities to cheat when playing cards with extraordinary people of low and middle ranks, or even ordinary people? Others can't see it, I still don't know? One is the imposing coercion of the "arbitrator" approach, and the other is the "bribery" of the "corrupted baron"... Klein looked at the hole cards that only had 5 of hearts and 9 of clubs, and shook his head subtly.

He couldn't help thinking about it seriously, if he wanted to cheat, what abilities in the "Seer" path could help:

"Turn all the opponents in the game into secret puppets? You can win as much as you want, and you can be invincible, but it has no practical value, and it's not planning a death poker competition...

"Unfortunately, there are no mosquitoes here, otherwise, I can control their 'spiritual body strings', make them secret puppets, and help me see other people's hole cards...

"'Faceless Man' can only change himself, not his cards...

"The illusion of the 'magician'? Playing cards with ordinary people and low-to-middle-sequence Extraordinary people, the effect should be good, but here are two demigods...

"Using 'Joker''s wrist ability to change cards? It's useless, the dealing and shuffling of cards are all done by the waiter..."

As his thoughts flashed, Klein realized that only the "Seer"'s own abilities seemed to be useful.

He threw out two hole cards, signaled not to call, then picked up a metal chip and flipped it back and forth between his fingers.

At this time, Amyrius Leavitt suddenly raised his head and glanced at him, then retracted his gaze, and pushed out a bunch of chips.

Sure enough... Klein nodded inwardly without any surprise.

When he cooperated last time, he knew that Admiral Amyrius could distinguish between ordinary people and extraordinary people from the difference of their "position", and he suspected that the other party could even judge the level of an extraordinary person, that is, "position".

However, Klein is not too worried about this, because the "Crafty Mage" has a certain "secret" ability, which is also one of the special reasons why he can restrain the gray fog and bless him after he reaches Sequence 4. He was convinced that the other party would not be able to discover his rank, but he did not interfere accordingly in advance, and doubted that Amyrius would be able to see that he was a Beyonder.

Therefore, he simply took the initiative to show a little problem, which seemed to be easily seen through and grasped.
