Chapter 1842: Showing Your Hand
Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
There wasn’t much to be said about the first round of betting . No one could really guess who would end up fighting the Life Alliance .
In the second round, it was revealed that Blood Red War Flag would be fighting the Life Alliance .
The odds were decisively determined, with Blood Red War Flag tipped to win at 1 . 08 . This meant that someone who bet 1 dollar had the chance to earn 8 cents . It seemed that no one thought there was going to be any issues with this fight .
After all, even with the support of Ruling Sword, the Life Alliance would not be strong enough to fend off Blood Red War Flag .
Not to mention, Ruling Sword was also facing an attack from Glory Capital, who had an Infernal .
The third round then came, which was usually the highlight of the betting . Everyone could see the lineup of the two sides in the livestream . Everyone thought the two sides would be filled with the usual players, but the Life Alliance’s side had the well-known Ruling Sword commander Wandering standing there confidently .
However, none of the players knew that he had also brought experts from the three-guild alliance .
Most of them were unfamiliar faces, so the players watching couldn’t really tell who they were . They were coolly scoping out the forces that had come to attack them .
On Blood Red War Flag’s side, there was Wild, Dark Heavens, Jade Flower Lover, Scandalous, Not an Elementary Sudent, Indifference, Yew and Capcoman, among others . From Wings of Dawn, there was Elevenless, Falling Smile, Faker than Wind and Tracer, and from Azure Guard, Magic Cry, Stellar Union Silver Radiant and Floral Paralysis . This appeared to be a super strong star team .
A line up like this could only be seen once in a blue moon .
Therefore, everyone assumed that Blood Red War Flag would win . This increased the odds of Life Alliance winning to a dozen times more .
These odds intensified as the battled continued .
In the third round, you would lock in the current odds the moment you placed a bet .
There were also some individuals that hedged their bets . They bet thousands of dollars for
Life Alliance to win, on the off chance that they would make a ludicrous profit .
Of course, there were only a few players like this . After all, those who truly had money wouldn’t bother with things like this .
After the battle started, Blood Red War Flag were fighting against Life Alliance quite aggressively . While the chariots were roaring around, they started using ladders to scale the walls . They obviously wanted to break through Life Alliance’s defensive lines as quickly as possible .
“Little Jadey, do you guys have no shame?” Wandering yelled while squatting on top of the walls .
“What are you talking about? I worked with you when we agreed to, but now that is over . Surely I am allowed to beat you? Besides, I didn’t know that Life Alliance was affiliated with you,” Jade Flower Lover shouted back .

After seeing the defensive line up, he had already relaxed himself .
He was most afraid of entering the battlefield and suddenly finding himself facing the 80 strongest players of the three-guild alliance waiting for him on the city walls . In that case, no one would say that Blood Red War Flag would win so confidently . Glory Capital’s fights had already proven how powerful Ruling Sword’s defensive capabilities were .
Right now, all they had was a ragtag group of players .
“Hurry up and buy some! After a while, the odds of us winning will keep reducing . Find a few reliable bookkeepers and buy from them separately . Also, make sure they don’t run away,” Jade Flower Lover advised . He was different to Lu Li in that he liked to gamble . However, his results thus far had been inconsistent, and he had not made any substantial winnings .
He was talking to any gamblers who were on Ruling Sword’s side .
For example, Fat Monkey, Big Dog Li and Her Tears were three of Ruling Sword’s most famous gamblers . They were currently fighting in the Stronghold while placing their bets . In order to better control their luck, they were even participating in the Life Alliance defence .
“What’s with this commotion? This isn’t even that much money . ”
Her Tears was actually a tycoon, but the amount of money he could receive from winning this bet made him feel quite satisfied .
“These bookmakers are unreliable . What if our money gets taken away?” Big Dog Li asked worriedly .
This poor guy had participated in some gambling in the last Stronghold War while drinking . He had bet on Glory Capital to win (not because he had some insider info, but because he was drunk) and somehow managed to win . He had bet several tens of thousands and stood to earn six or seven million dollars .

The worst part about it was that he had already thought of all the ways he could spend the money .
In the end, the bookmaker returned his initial bet . He claimed that the other bookmaker had engaged in some illegal activities and most of his previous transactions had been cancelled .
Big Dog Li had been nervous about betting since then, and would always need to reassure himself that it was fortunate enough to at least have gotten his bet back . Otherwise, he would not be on these city walls with these two fools .
This time, he was actually part of a minority of players who had inside information .
In order to raise his betting amount, he asked to borrow money from some friends . He signed a five-year contract with Lu Li to borrow 150,000 dollars . He had accumulated a total of 300,000, which was not an easy task for a shut-in gamer .
He also chose two allies, Fat Monkey and Her Tears .
Fat Monkey was actually not a stingy person . He was a super-foodie that used all of his money to eat all sorts of exotic things . He could tell you all about the different foods he had eaten from different provinces .
He had also signed a control with Lu Li, but this was for 15 years .
In fact, he wanted to sign for something that would last for more than 50 years, but Lu Li wouldn’t let him .
Her Tears lent them 50,000 dollars each and said that he was their big bro . As they placed their bets, he also said that he would generously feed them if their bet failed .

They would have meat buns for every meal!
It wasn’t that he didn’t have more money to lend them, but there was a chance that getting so rich so quickly would cause them to lose themselves .
With a betting an amount of 300,000 dollars, winning would change these players’ lives overnight .
Big Dog Li could now live the life of a club member and Fat Monkey could eat things from all over the world . He could even get items shipped directly from the United States .
“Rest assured, the companies I have recommended are all well-funded and it would look very bad for them to run away with your money,” Her Tears said as he patted his chest and shot them
In fact, he had picked these companies out from his own network . He obviously couldn’t mess up his friends like this, so he had picked rival companies .
