Chapter 97: Chapter 92 Liu Hao: Not Convinced? How About a Bet? [5000 words, asking for monthly tickets!]_3

This ability should be related to the spirit. Coincidentally, Mu Rufeng possesses the ability of Deceit Baby, which can immunize him against third-level and lower Spiritual Pollution.

Although he wasn’t sure if the other party would default on the payment, he wasn’t one to eat vegetarian.

Liu Hao’s eyes looked sinister, but in the end, he took out one hundred yuan, painfully handing it over to Mu Rufeng.

“Um, not bad, you do value credibility. If you want to gamble again, I’m up for it,” Mu Rufeng said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Liu Hao felt a surge of joy inside him.

He didn’t believe his ability had failed, thinking that something must have gone wrong earlier.

He was just worried about finding another reason to gamble again, but unexpectedly, Mu Rufeng had brought it up himself.

Anyway, he absolutely didn’t believe that a mere Level 1 Contractor could ignore his “Gamble One More” ability.

A contractor who had made a contract with Gambling Ghost was inherently a gambling ghost himself. The mindset of a gambling ghost was well known, and there was absolutely nothing suspicious about wanting to continue gambling with Mu Rufeng.

“Old Ghost, use your abilities this time and go all out,” Liu Hao communicated with the Gambling Ghost within.

“No problem, same old rules. I want sixty percent of the chips if I win,” Old Ghost said.

“Okay,” Liu Hao readily agreed.

If Liu Hao was only borrowing Old Ghost’s ability, he would only need to pay twenty percent of the chips.

However, if he let Old Ghost take action himself, his ability would be enhanced, and it wouldn’t consume Liu Hao’s own Magic Power, but the chips paid would increase to sixty percent.

“Alright, let’s have another round. We’ll play rock-paper-scissors again. If you win, I’ll give you one thousand soul coins. If I win, you give me one thousand soul coins, and the chips from last time are void. How about that?”

Liu Hao nearly gritted his teeth as he spoke.

Because he actually didn’t have one thousand soul banknotes worth of chips left.

His current total assets were just over seven hundred yuan, and that was because he had won quite a bit using his “Gamble One More” ability.

But, he felt that with Old Ghost stepping in, he surely wouldn’t lose, so he directly raised the chips to one thousand yuan.

“Although your chips are a bit low, never mind, I agree,” Mu Rufeng said.

“Good,” Liu Hao felt relieved inside, then he spoke up, “Let’s do this, quick battle–rock, paper, scissors!”

Liu Hao stretched out his hand and showed a paper.

On Mu Rufeng’s side, a voice still appeared in his mind, telling him to throw rock.

Moreover, this time the voice was softer and more magical, almost persuasive.

But Mu Rufeng had no intention of complying and hesitated not a bit before throwing scissors.

“Ah, sorry, I won again. Pay up,” Mu Rufeng said, extending his hand with a smile.

“What? Impossible, how could this be? How could my “Gamble One More” ability fail?” Liu Hao’s face changed drastically, seemingly unable to accept it.

“Old Ghost, Old Ghost, what’s wrong with your ability? Why did it fail?” Liu Hao completely ignored Mu Rufeng and frantically questioned Old Ghost inside.

“The kid either has a very high spirit attribute, surpassing yours, or he has an item that can immunize my Spiritual Pollution.”

“Kid, just accept your bad luck and don’t push against this guy anymore. Pay up the chips. My portion can be owed for now, you know the rules,” Old Ghost said indifferently.

“You…” Liu Hao was irked by Old Ghost’s words.

“Hm? I’m talking to you. The agreed one thousand yuan, thank you,” Mu Rufeng spoke again.

Liu Hao suddenly felt a shock of apprehension, a warning from his “Gamble One More” ability that breaking the rules of the gamble could lead to unpredictable consequences.

“I’m short three hundred yuan, lend me three hundred,” Liu Hao asked Old Ghost for money.

“No problem, same old rule: lend nine, return thirteen,” Old Ghost agreed straightforwardly.

“Right, and you also have to pay for his meals these past few days. Look at this kid, he eats a lot. Do you want to borrow a bit more?” Old Ghost added.

“Alright, lend me another five hundred,” Liu Hao swallowed hard. He really didn’t want to, but he nodded anyway.

Then, Liu Hao pulled out one thousand soul coins and handed them to Mu Rufeng.

“That, handsome guy, this is all I have now. Could you… maybe reduce the meal prices for the next few days?”

“I was rude before, really, I apologize to you here,” Liu Hao said humbly at the moment.

There was no helping it. His ability was useless against Mu Rufeng, and initiating a fight would be suicidal.

Helplessly, he could only apologize and admit his wrong to see if he could get away with paying less.

“Heh, I’ll see how I feel,” Mu Rufeng neither agreed nor declined.

“Yes, yes, yes, by the way, handsome guy, I have a few pieces of information to share with you. If you are satisfied, can you waive the charges?” Liu Hao approached Mu Rufeng and whispered.

“Oh? Let’s hear it, if I’m satisfied, I can waive the meal charges,” Mu Rufeng, suddenly interested, urged him to speak.

Just as Liu Hao was about to speak, he saw an Abnormal Elderly Lady dragging a tray over.

“Sir, here is your stir-fried beef, fried tofu, and hand-torn cabbage.”

“For the rice, I’ve served you a large bowl. If it’s not enough, you can go to the window and add more for free.”

Abnormal Elderly Lady placed three steaming bowls of food and a large bowl of rice before Mu Rufeng.

Smelling the rich aroma of the food, Mu Rufeng reflexively swallowed and felt even hungrier.

“That’s fine, thanks,” Mu Rufeng said in thanks.

The Abnormal Elderly Lady looked hopeful at Mu Rufeng, but after he thanked her, he made no further gesture.

No tip, undoubtedly leaving the Abnormal Elderly Lady rather disappointed, she could only leave regretfully.

“Go on, I’m listening,” Mu Rufeng picked up the chopsticks, shoveled a big mouthful of rice, and grabbed a chopstick’s worth of beef, stuffing it into his mouth.
