HLnovel Chapter 75 The Paper God of Folding
Chapter 75 The Paper God of Folding
"I activate the effect of [Spiritwalker Zombie] to send one Zombie monster from my Deck to the Graveyard. I sent Bone Prince."
"Because the Bone Prince went to the Graveyard, the Bone Couple from the deck were also sent to the Graveyard." The number of Bone characters in the Graveyard reached 11.
"Then I, the horse-headed demon of the cemetery, and the King of Ten Thousand Bones rising from among the ancient bones, roar in unyielding fury on behalf of all the departed! This strike, piercing heaven and earth, descend, King of Bones!" The King of Bones' attack power reached its peak.
The Bone King, as imposing as a mountain, reappeared. "They actually managed to turn the tables?" Du Shuhao's voice trembled.
The two women excitedly shook hands with each other.
"Bone King! Attack the Silent Mage!" The Bone King raised his iron fist and slammed it towards the Silent Mage.
The silent mage seemed to reveal a relieved smile the moment he was defeated. (Lp 1800 - +3500 = -6700)
"Hahaha, that's more like it!"
Du Shuhao turned to the side, exaggeratedly covering his face with his hands, and let out a maniacal laugh. "This kind of opponent is more interesting! I call! Paying 70 gold coins to the system. Adding 7000 health points."
A window opened on the table in front of Du Shuhao, and a tray rose up, piled high with gleaming gold coins. Du Shuhao frantically pushed these coins into the dueling arena, where a conveyor belt immediately appeared, transporting the pile of coins to the prize pool at the center of the arena, beneath the feet of the golden dealer.
Du Shuhao's health points have been restored to 300.
"I'm using [Spiritualist Zombie] to attack your [Holy Grail Couple Double A]" Lp 300-2000+100=-1600
"Call! 20 gold coins!" Du Shuhao laughed wildly. Lp -1600+2000=400
"【Undead Face】, direct attack!" Lp 400-2500=-2100
"Thumbs up! 30 gold coins!" Lp -2100 + 3000 = 900
Wow, 120 gold coins were thrown into the pool right away. That's 120 million! They're really rich and capricious. If I win this game, can I take all this money?
Di Xing stared at the gleaming gold coins in the prize pool, swallowing hard. He was now out of cards, so he ended his turn.
"My turn, draw a card!" Du Shuhao seemed to be going crazy, glancing at the card he had drawn. "Alright, my real ace has arrived. I will Normal Summon: [Folding Paper God] (DARK/Angel, Level 1, 100/0)"
A beautiful origami figure appeared on the field. She had golden hair, a long green dress, and Zhang Ka's wings. In her right hand, she held a golden scale, and in her left hand, a sharp sword. But all of this was made of origami.
"I activate [Second Chance] first, then activate the special effect of [Folding Paper God]. Once per turn, until the situation is reversed, I can keep flipping a coin. Every two flips, I draw 1 card. Also, each time the coin flips, this card's ATK doubles."
Du Shuhao took off his shirt, jumped onto the table, opened his hands to the sides as if making a gun gesture, and revealed a rampant smile: "Come on, let's start the betting!"
"Holy crap, Kinji! Your teacher's already turned into 2.5 Satoru, aren't you going to get to the battlefield yet?" Di Xing cursed inwardly.
Over here, the golden-clad dealer has already started flipping the coins.
Looking at the coin in the air, Di Xing and the two women's palms were sweating with nervousness.
"First coin toss, watch!" 100 x 2 = 200
"Second coin toss, watch!" 200 x 2 = 400
"Third coin toss, watch!" 400 x 2 = 800
"Fourth coin toss, watch!" 800 x 2 = 1600
"Fifth coin toss, Li..."
All three of them breathed a sigh of relief.
"Don't be so happy yet. Activate the effect of [Second Chance] and toss the coin again."
"Fifth coin toss, watch!" 1600 x 2 = 3200
"Sixth coin toss, watch!" 3200 x 2 = 6400
"What should we do? This monster's attack power is about to catch up with the Bone King's!" Ai Xiao said anxiously.
"It's alright," Lei Xi comforted her, "Di Xing will definitely win."
"The seventh coin toss!" Everyone watched the coin tumbling through the air. Time seemed to slow down. Finally, the coin landed with a "thud!"
"That's great!" The two women hugged each other and cheered.
"Heh, so you novices shouldn't cheer before your trump cards are revealed. I activate the Spell Card [Holy Grail A]."
"Does flipping a coin count for other cards too!?" Leixi asked in surprise.
The dealer in gold tossed in another coin. "Watch!" 6400 x 2 =
As Du Shuhao drew two cards, the attack power of [Folding Paper God] reached point.
"Now my [Folding Paper God]'s attack power surpasses your Bone King's, albeit by only 800 points. If my attack succeeds this time, you only need to pay nine gold coins to revive. Too bad you don't have any, do you? You poor wretches are like this, clearly not understanding the true meaning of gambling, yet daring to recklessly barge into the casino."
Du Shuhao laughed wildly, walked to the floor-to-ceiling window, and looked down at the equally frenzied crowd below.
"Look at these people in the room. Driven by their foolish greed, they dream of making a fortune with a small investment, contributing their meager sums to our casino."
"It's a pity that their turnover doesn't even account for the bulk of our casino's revenue. It's those wealthy gentlemen who are the ones they're furious with who make the biggest profits, and only they can win big."
"They'll never understand that even gambling isn't fair; only those with enough cards win! Only those with enough stakes win! And they're nothing more than clowns struggling and dreaming ridiculous dreams in front of those people."
"Then why did you send people to lure these people into gambling addiction? And even drive them to ruin and death?" Di Xing asked calmly, looking at the deranged Du Shuhao.
"What nonsense are you talking about? Do you think we'd even consider their money?"
"Of course they'd like it, but I know your boss wouldn't. What he's after is something much more important: the houses and real estate of those in debt! When they can't pay their debts, they have no choice but to sell these things to you, sell you everything they've worked their whole lives for, just to pay off their debts. Through gambling, you can get everything you want at a ridiculously low price."
"Hahaha!" Du Shuhao let out a wild laugh.
Even if what you're saying is true, it has nothing to do with us. These people are stupid and greedy. What destroyed them wasn't gambling, but themselves.
"Bullshit!" Di Xing roared angrily.
