Chapter 64 - Financial Crisis 24: Conclusion (2/2)

Card Room Die Zhiling 40840K 2022-07-22

The bearded uncle sighed and walked over, putting a hand on Xiao Lou’s shoulder and whispering, “Young man, I don’t know how l can live but I am very optimistic about you. I hope that in the Card World, there will be more people like you.”

If only all the challengers in the secret room had their own courage and were willing to join other challengers to clear the instance, keeping their principles and not killing innocent people.

Would the challengers of this world be much better off?

Xiao Lou’s heart trembled slightly as he nodded to the uncle. “Old Beard, everything went well.”

The bearded uncle laughed. “We lived for today. I hope to see everyone again!”

He was the first to leave 3 of Spades.

The other challengers came over to say goodbye to Xiao Lou, leaving in turn.

Someone was cheeky and asked, “Brother, is your team still lacking people? If you are missing someone, you can take me…”

Xiao Lou smiled and declined. “Sorry, my contract is full.”

The other side had to wave regretfully and turned away.

Once all the other challengers were gone, Xie Qi looked at Xiao Lou and whispered, “Professor Xiao, what about me? Could you add me…”

Xiao Lou smiled and patted him on the shoulder. “You already have a team booked. Aren’t you going to 3 of Hearts with Shao Qingge?”

Xie Qi’s eyes brightened. “Great!” He looked back at Shao Qingge and spoke seriously, “Rest a.s.sured, I will be obedient in 3 of Hearts.”

Shao Qingge smile slightly. “Just listen to me.”

In any case, he received spoilers from Xiao Lou and knew the situation. As a Hearts room slag, this time he was confident of getting a perfect clearance with the little guy who scored S.

Yu Hanjiang reminded, “You must first buy a contract and bind together. Otherwise, you are alone now and might not necessarily encounter each other when randomly matching.”

“Leave it to me.” Shao Qingge glanced at Xie Qi. “Once you return to your personal s.p.a.ce, don’t rush to draw cards and wait for my contract invitation. Once you sign the contract, I will directly pull you into 3 of Hearts.”

Xie Qi nodded enthusiastically. “I understand!”

Xiao Lou said, “Then we will follow the original plan. The two of you will go to 3 of Hearts while Group Leader Yu and I will go to 3 of Clubs. Once you reach the fourth level, you will go to Clubs and we will go to Hearts, then continue to meet in Spades. Wait until all the C-grade secret rooms are cleared and then you will tear up your contract. I will upgrade the contract and invite you. Then everyone will be able to team together.”

Shao Qingge nodded quickly. “No problem.”

Xie Qi was naturally obedient. “Okay, Professor Xiao, Group Leader Yu, goodbye! I will see you in 4 of Spades!”

Xie Qi and Shao Qingge also left.

A countdown appeared in the floating box, followed by the option ‘Leave the secret room.’

Xiao Lou looked out into the distance. Under the cold moonlight, the city with no water and electricity seemed to be shrouded in a thick haze.

He didn’t know if the city would refresh after the challengers left.

Would it return to its original appearance? Or was it going to be completely abandoned by the secret room and become a financial doomsday with the prices fixed at 128 times?

They had experienced a lot in this city.

They met the young and promising entrepreneurial boss Shao Qingge and the musical teenager who disguised himself as a garbage collector. He knew the situation of the Nightmare Room and discovered the existence of the mysterious organization hunting challengers. He heard rumours about the City of the Moon and finally fought together with so many challengers, pulling off a beautiful victory and earning some gold coins.

There was a lot of harvest and a successful instance clearance.

However, Xiao Lou found it difficult to calm down his mood.

He took one final look at the city covered by the night and took a deep breath before smiling at Yu Hanjiang. “Let’s go, Group Leader Yu. We have to continue to break through.”

Yu Hanjiang nodded and pressed the ‘leave’ option.

Darkness covered their vision.

Once it was restored again, they were already sitting in a helicopter.

The familiar roar of propellers came from above their heads and the transparent gla.s.s under their feet showed the darkness of the city.

In the driver’s seat of the helicopter was a man wearing a pair of sungla.s.ses, the corners of his mouth raised in a cold arc.

It was the keeper they hadn’t seen for a long time, A of Spades.
