Chapter 572 Relying on True Skills
"Just now at the auction, you snagged it for thirty million," Abella said.
Mike's grin turned even more sinister. "Alright, show me what you got."
They headed back to the table where the dealer was shaking the dice.
As the dice settled, some bet high, others low.
Abella didn't bother with chips. She pulled out her phone, showing a bank balance of ten million dollars, and placed it on the "high" spot.
Everyone watched curiously, some even sneaking a peek at her phone. Ten million dollars? Starting with such a big bet? Young people sure are impulsive.
The dealer didn't flinch. He'd seen it all—people betting with house deeds and car keys. As long as it had value, it was fair game.
"Place your bets," the dealer said, waiting for everyone to finish before revealing the dice.
A total of 12 points.
Everyone stared at Abella in shock. She won on her first bet, doubling her money.
She'd bet ten million and now had twenty million.
She put away her phone and placed the remaining ten million in chips on "high" again.
The dealer shook the dice and revealed 13 points. Abella won again, taking back twenty million dollars.
Mike and the woman next to him were stunned. They didn't expect her to be this good.
In the third round, Abella bet twenty million on "low." The result? 6 points. She won again.
Twenty million turned into forty million.
Everyone looked at Abella in disbelief.
She pushed the forty million in chips to Mike.
Mike was speechless, and even Alison was stunned. Abella had won forty million in under two minutes.
"Win three more rounds for me!" Mike pleaded. "Just three more! If you win, we can talk about anything."
Abella thought he was being greedy, but Nicole needed the Piercing of Heart, and her condition couldn't wait.
So Abella looked at the dealer again. The dealer shook the dice, and Abella said "low." Mike immediately placed all forty million on "low."
Seeing this, others followed suit and bet on "low."
The dealer revealed the dice: 5 points.
Mike won again!
Now he had eighty million dollars!
Eighty million turned into one hundred sixty million, and one hundred sixty million turned into three hundred twenty million.
The dealer was no longer calm. Not only had Mike won big, but other customers had also made significant gains. This was a huge loss for them.
Mike was ecstatic. He looked at Abella excitedly. "How did you do it?"
Abella didn't go into details but looked into his blue eyes. "Time to keep your promise."
"Want to work for me?" Mike offered. "Name your price."
If Abella could win every time, he'd be set for life. Why bother with a corporation or business? This was way easier!
"You're cheating," customers at other tables grumbled, green with envy. "No way you can guess right every time."
"I demand a body search. She must have some cheating device on her."
"Maybe she's in cahoots with the dealer."
The dealer stayed silent.
Abella stayed silent.
"Can a cheater get out of here alive?" Abella ignored the accusations and looked at Mike, waiting for him to keep his promise.
Others wouldn't let it go. "How can you prove you're not cheating?"
"If you can't prove it, you need a body search to clear your name."
"A girl from who knows where, better than us? We've been playing here for over ten years! Why can't we win every time?"
"Because you're not skilled enough," Abella said with disdain. "It's not hard to identify the numbers by sound."
"What did you say? You can identify the numbers by sound?"
"I don't believe it. Prove it, or we have the right to suspect you."
"You can tell the points by sound? I'll kneel and beg for your forgiveness!"
Abella looked annoyed. "I don't need that."
Wasn't this about proving her innocence?
Abella picked up the dice cup, grabbed three dice, and shook them quickly.
Her technique was swift and mesmerizing. Just watching her shake was a visual treat.
The dice made crisp sounds. When she stopped, all eyes were on the cup in her hand.
"Six," Abella announced before opening the cup. Sure enough, the total was six.
Everyone was stunned. She could really identify the numbers by sound?
Only two people had ever been this skilled before: an old gambling king and the casino owner.
Abella picked up the dice again, shook them, and placed the cup on the table, casually announcing, "Seven."
The cup was opened, and the total was exactly seven!
Everyone looked at her in disbelief.
How did she do it?
"No, I don't believe it. Shake an eleven as I say!"
"Yeah, shake an eleven. Let's see what you can do."
"Shake an eleven!"
Abella picked up the dice. Weren't they asking for a show?
The dice made clear sounds in the cup. After a moment, Abella removed the cup.
The three dice stood in a column. Abella took them down one by one, and the numbers added up to exactly eleven!
The room was stunned, then erupted in applause, admiring her skill.
It was incredible.
She could even stack the dice in a column.
"The dice in your hand seem to follow your command. You can get any number you want."
"Amazing, how did you do it?"
She used the casino's dice and cup, not her own, and she could shake out any number she wanted.
So many people were watching her. If she had cheated, she would have been caught!
So, how did she do it?
It was unbelievable!
When she was a child, her mentor would have her guess high or low while he shook the dice. Every time she guessed high, he rolled low, and when she guessed low, he rolled high.
She lost every time and had to obey her mentor and complete the tasks he assigned.
But she felt unconvinced, even suspecting her mentor of cheating. How else could he win every time?
Later, she discovered that by mastering the strength and angle of the shake and practicing more, she could roll the dice to get the desired numbers. Even forming a column wasn't difficult.
