Sign In: Becoming A Great Spell Deity Starting From The Magic Academy

Chapter 359: Gambling

This is true of the military, of the business, of everything else.

It is the inspiration that supports the birth of artists.

And Mellie believes that inspiration comes from the perception of everything in life, not from the perception of something.

It is as if a color itself cannot paint a colorful picture.

This was the simple truth.

It was for this reason why Mellie’s understanding of this spirit made Lei Luo maintain a very high learning enthusiasm and joyful in the process of learning.

If other people outside Utopia Manor saw this, they would think that he was simply not learning anything.

For them, learning can sometimes be too difficult, and the process of acquiring knowledge would often be too arduous.

But in fact, Lei Luo’s high enthusiasm and joy were from the heart.

He does not particularly force himself to learn anything. He simply tries to enjoy the process of learning.

He never pushes himself beyond straining himself if something becomes too difficult for him to understand,

He only tries to understand the most basic principles of whatever he is studying about.

This was a big taboo in the learning theory of this world.

But Lei Luo’s learning was known by others, and Mellie also let it go.

Compared to the free and extensive learning, the other five knowledge taught by two teachers appeared to be a little hard work.

Mellie first chose to train Lei Luo in a general direction method that was very simple, which was to let him play chess.

Mellie divided Lei Luo’s chess lesson into two parts. Half of the time, she played with him, and the other half of the game time, she would simply let him compete with other people in the farm.

In the beginning, he played against twelve people at the same time, then twenty-four people, and then forty-eight people.

After learning to practice in three rounds, Lei Luo’s win rate against Mellie had increased by seventy percent.

In total, he was able to play against ninety-six people...and all of them won.

One of those was his own teacher, Habacca.

Habacca was the type who would be embarrassed if he couldn’t win against his student.

However, he was more pleased because Lei Luo was gradually exceeding his expectations.

As for memory retention, Mellie’s method was very old.

She would recite magic incantations.

She would start with a hundred, then a thousand, then ten thousand, and then more.

After three years of reciting, Lei Luo, who had already turned eighteen, had mastered more than a million magic incantations.

He could already recite them in his heart while talking to others.

This was a great skill, but it was also a skill that he had no choice but to acquire and practice.

When Lei Luo sat there doing nothing, he memorized silently with a dull look on his face.

It often made him look a bit like a psychopath.

Mellie was the one who had passed on this technique to Habacca.

Thus, many people in the form had often seen Habacca as a psychopath.

He would suddenly appear in front of Lei Luo and do all kinds of tricks to distract Lei Luo.

As time passed, Habacca’s interference with Lei Luo’s studying techniques became more and more ineffective.

In the end, Lei Luo had managed to completely ignore him.

In terms of computational ability, especially when playing chess, Lei Luo had already trained, but in order to especially strengthen his ability in this area, Habacca had especially let Lei Luo learn card divination.

Observing the stars was one activity for him.

Astrology was a very calculative thing. action

There were countless stars in the sky, but to accurately calculate the rules of each star, the amount of calculating ability required was even greater.

Lei Luo also observed the stars every day, and he could use the stars to prophesy.

The success that came from this was that Lei Luo had already somewhat predicted his own fate, as well as the fate of others.

This kind of calculation ability was something that could not be expressed in words.

The extent of this ability could only be felt when someone met Lei Luo on the battlefield in the future.

What Lei Luo needed to learn next was the ability to adapt and withstand pressure, as well as the ability to manipulate others.

This all converged into a learning method. This method was also the oldest thing in human history—gambling.

Although it sounded incredible, in fact, in the next two years, Lei Luo spent the most time on the subjects that Mellie assigned to him.

There was a small problem with gambling.

The reason was simple. A true gambling expert would definitely not gamble for fun.

And Lei Luo did not have the capital.

Another important reason was that all the casinos in the world belonged to the officials of the gambling union.

This was a union directly under the control of the Empire General Assembly.

Anyone who wanted to open a casino, as well as those who participated in gambling, had to be recorded at the Empire General Assembly.

Otherwise, it would be considered a violation of the empire’s laws.

Although Habacca had prepared the identity certificate of Lei Luo, there was no doubt that he could not reveal his identity now.

With these two restrictions, Lei Luo participated in gambling, which was a bit of a consignment.

As a test, Mellie let Lei Luo figure it out himself.

So, Lei Luo wandered around the casinos in the nearby towns every day.

After careful consideration, he locked onto a person named Katz.

After interacting with him for a period of time, Lei Luo knew that he was a pirate who didn’t do well.

According to the rules of all the Empire Conferences, no one within the empire is allowed to create more than one identity just to participate in gambling.

The money obtained from gambling would be recorded on the amethyst card.

No matter how the money on this card is obtained, it will be regarded as the amethyst card owner’s sacred and inviolable property.

Anyone who uses non-gambling means or fraudulent means, to steal the wealth on this card will be wanted by the empire.

When Lei Luo told Katz that he wanted to gamble for him, his account only had a pitiful 100 copper coins.

So, when Katz suspected that Lei Luo was trying to cheat him of his money, Lei Luo stopped him with just one sentence.

“Do I have to risk being wanted by the empire for 100 copper coins?”

Katz believed that it was the case, so he gave the amethyst card used for gambling to Lei Luo.

After that, the two of them went to the casino where Katz was a regular.
