The Legendary Man Chapter 427

Placing Bets
“Yes, Boss!” the attractive dealer said. She stuck her tongue out, turned around, and immediately chased after Jonathan and Logan.
However, by the time she got to Jonathan, he had already started heading for a gambling table while clutching a stack of chips worth five hundred thousand. The table he was walking toward was a chuck-a-luck table.

Chuck-a-luck was by far the simplest game in the entire casino to learn and play.
“Going for a game of chuck-a-luck, Mr. Goldstein?” asked Logan, who was standing behind Jonathan.
Jonathan nodded. “Yeah, let’s go for this.”
He then took one hundred thousand worth of chips and gambled them all on the number three. “One hundred thousand on three!”
“Follow!” Logan called out without hesitation after seeing Jonathan placing his bet.

He took all of his chips and placed them on the table. “Five hundred thousand on three!”

After seeing Logan place all his chips, Jonathan could not help but turn around and stare at him in shock. “Are you sure you want to bet that much? Aren’t you worried about losing?”

“That will depend on fate, I guess. In any case, I have no idea how to play this.” Logan shrugged. “Besides, Mr. Goldstein, how can I possibly lose after following your bet?”

Jonathan sighed helplessly. “It’s not like I’m a pro-gambler!”

Meanwhile, the dealer, who was in charge of rolling the dice, had already begun doing so.

The dealer revealed the dice with a loud slap on the table. And as anticipated, one of the dice yielded the number three.
Logan couldn’t help but chuckle when he saw the number on the dice. “I knew it! Following your bet will never go wrong, Mr. Goldstein!”
“Jeez…” Jonathan muttered. He couldn’t think of anything to say. Thus, he shook his head and placed his next bet.

“What number should we bet on this time, Mr. Goldstein?” Logan, having tasted sweet victory, shamelessly questioned Jonathan about his bet once more.
The chips Logan started with, which were worth five hundred thousand, had been doubled to one million after the last bet.
“I’ll go for five!” Jonathan exclaimed as he placed a two hundred thousand bet.

Logan, as usual, threw everything he had on the table. “One million for the number five!” And much to his favor, when the dealer revealed the dice, one of them indeed had the number five on it.

His one million instantly turned into two million!

“And you’re telling me you’re not a pro-gambler, Mr. Goldstein?” Logan remarked. But since it was only a dice-based guessing game, he wasn’t really all that astonished by the outcome.

He thought back to the time when Jonathan had led them to conquer the lands and devised unfailing schemes—they were victorious in each battle.
Thus, as compared to an actual battle, chuck-a-luck was nothing.

“Luck is on my side,” Jonathan responded, laughing. He placed his four hundred thousand worth of chips on the dealing table. “I’ll bet on two this time.”

Logan promptly placed his two million worth of chips on the table and replied, “Same here.”
The dealer revealed the dice after a few seconds. And as expected, the number two appeared on one of the dice!
In just the blink of an eye, Jonathan’s four hundred thousand doubled into eight hundred thousand, and Logan’s two million became four million!

“Your luck is insane, Mr. Goldstein!” the attractive dealer behind Jonathan exclaimed.

She had met a few other lucky players, but none could be compared to Jonathan, who was currently on a roll.
It was the first time she had ever seen someone place three bets and win them all.

“I suppose so,” Jonathan replied with a chuckle. Since he was just there to have fun, his winning streak really didn’t matter much to him. Nevertheless, he managed to catch the attention of the people around him.

The people instantly followed Jonathan’s call as soon as he placed his next bet.
“Eight hundred thousand on six,” Jonathan called out.
“One million on six!”

“Same here!”

“And here!”

After the others followed Jonathan’s bet, the table, which had previously only contained a few million worth of chips, was suddenly filled with ten to twenty million worth of chips. Immediately, the dealer’s face took on a bitter look.
If the dealer lost this round, he would have to compensate up to tens of millions worth of chips!

And at that moment, the dealer immediately perceived Jonathan and Logan as cheaters.
A rattling sound was heard, and the dice were revealed.
The numbers revealed were different from what Jonathan had placed his bet on.

It was merely a few million. To Logan, those few million were merely a drop in the ocean.
If he wanted to, he could waste tens of millions without batting an eyelash.

There were many people who wanted to offer him money in Durbaine.
The only thing was that he refused to believe that Jonathan would lose the bet.

He was just about to say something when Jonathan interjected, “Then let’s assume that nothing happened.”
“But Mr. Goldstein—”
