KMA: Kickass Man A Is Back

Chapter 29 Don't Raise the Bid Any More

The Emerald Pavilion was the name of the Stone Gambling Hall.

In fact, the casino in front of it was just an affiliate. Stone gambling was the core of the Emerald

Pavilion.

The Stone Gambling Hall covered an area twice as large as the casino where Atlas and the others had

played. In the empty hall, the rough stone storage area was in the middle.

Each rough stone had a price tag on it, but those placed outside were thought as the least valued.

Those that were really likely to contain the best gems were put away in advance, and then they would

be auctioned to get the best result through bidding.

As soon as they arrived, a graceful waitress in a red dress came over and said with a professional

smile, "You are just in time. The next round of rough stone auction is about to begin. I heard that these

rough stones were delivered from Myanmar. Maybe they contain the best gemstones!"

"Oh, that's perfect!" Joseph smiled. Looking at Atlas and Ruben, he sneered, "Mr. Kimmerly, please!"

"Here we go." Holding the beauty in his arms, he smoked his cigar and strode into the hall.

Joseph, Tobias and the others followed Ruben in.

At this moment, Evelyn was filled with curiosity towards Atlas. Unknowingly, she was actually a little

worried about him.

Evelyn deliberately pretended to fall behind. When she passed by Atlas, she quietly reminded him in a

low voice.

"Atlas, I heard that gambling on stones is very deceptive. People normally lose nine out of ten. Don't

act on impulse. Don't be fooled by them!"

After that, Evelyn hurriedly caught up with Viviana.

Atlas looked at Evelyn's beautiful figure as a smile appeared on his face. "Evelyn is still so kind!"

"It's a pity that her ending in her previous life was too tragic. In this life, I must change her fate!"

"But now we are not familiar with each other. I can only find an opportunity to remind her first so that

she will not repeat the same mistakes in her previous life." Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.

There was a stage in front of the hall. Below the stage, there were dozens of chairs, and many people

had already sat down.

Atlas and Ruben found a seat and sat down. Tobias and Viviana sat on the other side, deliberately

keeping a distance from Atlas.

Seeing Atlas' calm face, Joseph couldn't help but feel nervous. In the casino back then, Atlas had

already left a shadow in his heart.

"Gavin, do you think this guy is also good at stone gambling?" Joseph asked.

Gavin was stunned and said, "It's impossible. Isn't he just a good-for-nothing? How can he afford to

gamble on stones that burns money?"

Shelly said, "Oh, if you want to know whether Atlas knows stone gambling, just ask Viviana."

"Yes, Viviana must know him best!" Joseph said happily.

Tobias couldn't help looking at Viviana.

Viviana glanced at Atlas and said, "He has never been to the Stone Gambling Hall, and he doesn't

even know the basic rules. Don't worry!"

Joseph breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile, "Then I'm relieved."

Ruben began to teach Atlas knowledge about stone gambling.

"It's just that we buy an ordinary stone. If there's a gem inside, then we make a fortune. If there's none,

then we lose everything. Understand?"

Ruben explained to Atlas with gestures.

Atlas nodded, "Yes."

"Buddy, you don't even know how to gamble on stones, but you dared agree to gamble with them?"

Ruben was speechless. He had thought that Atlas was so good at gambling that he must be proficient

in stone gambling as well. Unexpectedly, he was a complete layman.

Atlas glanced at Ruben and said, "Now I know, don't I?"

"My idol, you are really my idol. You're so cool!" Ruben's face was full of admiration. Atlas' confidence

and ego were too fascinating.

And this annoying attitude, when on Atlas, made Ruben took it for granted that Atlas was supposed to

be like this.

"Welcome everyone. I won't talk nonsense anymore. This time, there are a few rough stones from

Myanmar. We have a chance to obtain the top-grade gemstones. As for who is lucky, it depends on

your judgment."

On the stage, the middle-aged host said with a simple smile.

After that, he immediately clapped his hands and shouted, "Take out the first rough stone!"

A waitress in a red dress walked onto the stage with a tray covered with red cloth.

The host gently lifted the red cloth with both hands, and a football-sized rough stone with a faint green

surface appeared in front of everyone.

"This is the first one. The starting price is 200,000, and bid increment is 10,000!"

"The auction begins now!"

As soon as the host's voice fell, a fat old man in the front row immediately said, "The outer appearance

of this rough stone has turned green, and it is already an upper-grade stone. It is very likely that it

contains a top-grade gem!"

"I'll offer 250,000!"

Another old man in a gray shirt laughed and said, "Mr. Baker, you have good eyesight. This rough

stone is indeed an upper-grade one, so 250,000 is not enough. I offer 300,000!"

As soon as the first rough stone came out, it had already caused a fight between the two, leading to a

hot discussion among the rest of the audience.

"Is that Mr. Baker the so-called Sherlock Baker? " Someone recognized Mr. Baker.

"That's right, he's Sherlock Baker. He's a star in the stone-gambling circle in Lanceham! Sherlock

Baker is his nickname. He specializes in exploring those top-grade gems. He once offered two Imperial

Greens at the price of fifty thousand, which directly earned him a hundred times more!"

"The other old man in a gray shirt is also not simple. If I'm not mistaken, he is Bill Hiddleston, aka

Magician Bill in the stone-gambling circle!"

"The rough stone these two people lay their eyes on are most likely legit! I'll pay 320,000!" A middle-

aged man shouted.

Ruben looked at Atlas and said, "Sherlock Baker versus Magician Bill. This stone must be

extraordinary!"

"I'll offer 400,000!" Ruben couldn't wait to shout.

On the opposite side, Joseph and the others looked at him.

Joseph said, "Ruben must have known the fame of Sherlock Baker and Magician Sean and thinks that

this stone is valuable. We can't let him get it!"

"450,000!" Joseph shouted.

Ruben immediately raised the price. "500,000!"

Then, he looked at Joseph provocatively.

Joseph cursed in his heart. He looked at Tobias and asked, "Mr. Morrison, what do you think of this

rough stone?"

Tobias had some research on stone gambling. He stared at the stone on the stage carefully for a while

and said, "It's rare to see such a stone of such size, especially the outer layer has already turned

green. Moreover, Sherlock Baker and Magician Bill are fighting for it. It can't be wrong."

Hearing Tobias' analysis, Joseph nodded and continued to raise the price. "500,000!"

Sherlock Baker shouted, "510,000!"

Just as Ruben was about to raise the bid directly to 600,000, Atlas suddenly said, "Don't raise the bid

anymore."
