Chapter 28: Gambling God (1/2)

The gambling scene continued as Theo, Elliot, and John spectated the battle between the most famous gladiators of the Channel Opening Evolutionary Realm. This was undoubtedly the most spectacular fight Elliot, who got to access the virtual platform for the first time, has ever witnessed in his life, and he couldn't help but marvel at the strength displayed by the two gladiators of nearly equal strength with lips parted slightly. Even Theo and John felt their blood boiling as they watched the might of the gladiators in the Channel Opening Evolutionary stage.

Elliot didn't place his bet on anyone this time. Of course, it is because both the gladiators were of nearly equal strength and he couldn't determine the victor out of the two. He wasn't going to place his bet on someone just to lose the little bit of money he earned easily.

”Goblin Head could have performed better. He just took the beating laying down when he could have used his Earth Morphing Ability to create a dome around him to defend the attack of Gladiator Bald Punch.” John complained after Bald Punch won the match.

”Didn't you notice? Goblin Head had run out of Magic Energy in the middle of the battle. Goblin Head couldn't use his ability to defend Bald Punch's supernatural attacks as he lacked magic energy to activate it.” Theo said, explaining the reason why Goblin Head lost at the end.

From the very start of the battle, Goblin Head has been using his ability and expending magic energy while Bald Punch dodged them by using the least amount o movements. It was clear that Bald Punch had more experience than Goblin Head.

If only I knew that, I would have placed my bet on Bald Punch. Sadly, God's Eye of Wisdom doesn't reveal the experience of a person or anything else about their life except for a detailed statistical diagram of a person's stats and ability, Elliot thought with a head lowered in slight disappointment.

He knew that there was no use crying over split milk.

However, he couldn't help but feel a bit sad and disappointed as he has lost a huge chance to make big bucks.

However, it didn't more than a few seconds for him to man up, feeling happy and excited about the near future.

He could still spectate more fights and bet on gladiators that will win for sure as they still have around 2 and a half of Gladiator Time left.

”What are you guys going to do now? Watch more fights between Gladiators or participate in a battle as one?” Theo asked as he looked at John and Elliot.

”I'm feeling a bit off today, so I am going to keep on spectating,” John replied. He wasn't feeling it within him as he just watched his most favorite Gladiator losing a match.

”I only want to try out my luck today, so I won't be participating in a fight,” Elliot said, expressing his desires to only spectate Theo.

”I guess I will tag along with you guys,” Theo said, not wanting to go off on his own and stick with his newfound homies.

They started to spectate one match after another, getting teleported to arenas with different outlooks, not a single one looking similar to another, as Elliot betted on a Gladiator that has a very high chance to win the fight ever so occasionally.

And all of the time the person he placed his bet on won!

Simply inconceivable!
