Chapter 234

Game Lobby.

Bai Liu led the way in, and went straight to Charles - Muke had already explained what had happened, but Bai Liu felt the need to meet the extraordinary Fifth Guild leader in person.

Inside the Gamblers' Guild.

Charles, sitting across the desk, raised an eyebrow in slight surprise, raised his hand to stop the servant from pouring Bai Liu's tea and repeated with interest what Bai Liu had just said to him, "You want to join the league this year?"

"Is that not what you intend to do? President Charles?" Bai Liu asked, unperturbed, in return.

"Of course not." Charles dismissed without a second thought, "Although I have chosen you as my [betting horse], normally, [betting horses] have a year of breeding before they go on the track."

Charles gave Bai Liu a top-to-bottom look with a slightly critical eye, then regretted his hand: " Bai Liu, you are not at the top of your game, it would be more appropriate to keep you in the dark. "

"Feeding?" Bai Liu raised an eyebrow, "So that's why the charge point collection mechanism exists, is it? It's all about building up the momentum for the big gamble that is [the league]?"

Charles nodded appreciatively, "Yes, you're very clever Bai Liu."

He got up with his civilised staff and came around behind Bai Liu: "All players in the whole game exist to earn more points, and in our [Gamblers' Guild] eyes there are two ways to earn more points in the game, one is called [Gamblers] and one is called [Horse Racing]."

"[Betting on horses] is the existence of being bet on, you rely on training in the game, being charged by us and playing in leagues for points, it's a very simple way of gaining labour, but there is a more exciting, risky and rewarding way of investing in this game - "

Charles hooked his lips and flipped his fingers, a peculiar chip flashed out of nothing between his index and middle fingers, and he leaned down and placed it in Bai Liu's arms.

"-a method we call [gambling]."

"As [gamblers] we have chosen you as our [gambling horses], invested in you to charge you, bred you, waved the flag for you, made you famous, and then when the annual league comes, put our whole fortune on you - "

Charles looks down with deep eyes at Bai Liu in his seat: " - if you win, we double our investment and make money, if you lose, we lose everything, that's the relationship between [gamblers] and [betting on horses]. "

Bai Liu tilts his head back slightly to put distance between him and Charles, and he looks down at the chip in his hand - a gold rim with a dark green background and a value of six.

He remembered that the real casino did not have chips of this value, which would be unique to the game.

"Essentially, what wins this gamble of the league for you [gamblers] is the money that both players bet, and a game with such high stakes wouldn't reach this kind of all-in popularity, the odds are too high." Bai Liu asked faintly, "- so someone is sitting on the base handicap is that right?"

"Yes." Charles replied.

The smile on his face grew more and more meaningful, "The person who sits at the bank is the system, and when the league is betting against each team, the system will place a base fund in the gambling pool for each team, and that base fund is the sum of the charge points of each person in the Double Fang Team-"

Charles pointed out five fingers, "- five times."

"In other words, that means the higher the sum of charge points on both the enemy and us, the higher the base fund in the double Team Fang Wu's gambling pool." Bai Liu was lost in thought, "Which means that if our team wins against a strong team, the higher the probability that the player who bets on us to recharge will double his win."
