Even if they fail, the large amount of chips gives everyone the chance to start over.

At this moment, the three of them looked towards Chu Xiu, who had yet to express his opinion.

Actually, Chu Xiu didn't mind being carried by others, as he had absolutely no confidence in gambling, nor any interest in showing off in front of others.

But unfortunately, he wanted to walk a different path.

"I want to first observe the situation in the town before making a decision," Chu Xiu said.

He didn't completely close off his words, in case his path didn't work, Chu Xiu didn't mind switching to cooperate for a normal clearance.

However, this still made Lin Ji slightly frown.

Because from his perspective, cooperation had no drawbacks from any angle, and the only reason for Chu Xiu to refuse cooperation could only be a lack of trust in the three of them.

"Brother Chen, perhaps you're not familiar with Brother Song in the outer city," he said, "Brother Song is one of the Celestial King's direct disciples and is a strong candidate for the Civilization Envoy."

"Although he fell a bit short in the end, he was very close."

"For him, the trial isn't a dangerous crisis, but rather an opportunity! He won't stop at the basic tasks, but will keep pushing towards more difficult challenges to seek greater benefits."

"So you can completely trust Brother Song's strength, and there's no need to worry that he will covet your chips."

Even Bian Guanyue rarely added, "Song's strength is indeed extraordinary."

In response, Chu Xiu just calmly nodded, "I understand, but I still want to observe first."

With the strength of a Celestial King's disciple, it should be like this generally, but if they queued with Chu Xiu, the difficulty of this instance might exceed their expectations.

"That's fine too," and after hearing his reply, Song Lichuan didn't say much, just said, "Then let's each disperse for now and meet back here in half an hour?"

No one objected.

However, just before leaving, Lin Ji suddenly asked, "Brother Chen, do you know what a Civilization Envoy is?"

Chu Xiu paused slightly, then shook his head.

He truly did not know what a Civilization Envoy was.

Lin Ji showed a look of understanding in his eyes, seemingly with a bit of disdain, and turned to leave.

This made Chu Xiu somewhat curious, is this Civilization Envoy some kind of slang?

However, he didn't care much and instead started exploring this gambling city according to his own plan.

Outside the four houses, there was a circle of steel walls, one side of which had a large door. Walking out the door was a rather wide cement street.

Next to the door, there was a sign for "Zhao's Gambling House."

Chu Xiu turned around and walked down the cement street. The sky here was pitch black, with not a trace of light. The entire town was only lit by oil lamps, and there were no extra decorations. The buildings were mainly gray and white reinforced concrete, two or three stories high, giving off a desolate and eerie vibe under the illumination of the oil lamps.

In front of these houses, there were basically signs with xx Gambling House names, some even with eye-catching slogans like "Infinite Surprises Await at Hidden Dragon Casino!" and "One Penny Investment, Hundredfold Returns!"

Often, some tourists would be attracted and go into the casinos.

However, tourists were only a small portion. More were gamblers who wandered like walking corpses or simply lay down by the roadside. These gamblers had all sorts of strange appearances, some with dark red skin and long tails growing from their backs, others three meters long with faces like evil spirits.

But at this moment, these creatures seemed to have lost their minds, with vacant eyes, just lying stiffly by the roadside, occasionally twitching.

"These should be slaves and refugee-level gamblers; only commoner gamblers can own houses."

"This is a town born for gambling, and every house is a game that you can join just by entering."

Chu Xiu was well aware and continued forward, soon walking around the entire town.

The town wasn't big, covering only four to five square kilometers. Besides gamblers and tourists, there were more creatures called "Gambling Slaves," who seemed to have lost their souls in the gambling games, thus becoming unbetrayable, tireless tool beings.

They planted crops and built houses around, being the city's source of labor.

And in the town, there were two large, lavish buildings with many people coming and going at the entrance, forming a stark contrast with the surrounding small houses that were two or three stories like bare buildings.

These were respectively places for exchanging Paradise Grass and a brothel.

Scantily clad women with fiery figures twisted their waists in front of the entrance, boldly tempting the passing gamblers. Some gamblers couldn't help but be handsy before entering, and some even exchanged for some Paradise Grass before entering.

"Goodness, now gambling, sex, and drugs are all gathering together."

Chu Xiu found it somewhat amusing.

However, these three things have always gone hand in hand throughout history.

Chu Xiu also saw Bian Guanyue, but the girl just looked over from a distance, then walked away with a cold face.

As for a bit further away, there was the Baron's castle, where only a few distinguished tourists or highly skilled gamblers would be invited, and it was the residence for Knight Tier and above gamblers.

This made Chu Xiu well aware.

Just as he was thinking about where to start taking action, suddenly a scream came from the brothel not far away. He looked up to see a gambler lying in a pool of blood, his neck slashed, blood spurting continuously outward. But instead of covering his wound, his hands were gripping the newly exchanged Paradise Grass tightly!

The assailant cursed in anger, slashed down again, chopping off both of the gambler's hands, then grabbed the bag with the Paradise Grass inside, regardless of the two severed hands still hanging on, and ran off.
