Demon Laws
Chapter 50: The Strong Path

A wager?

The proposal was directly supported by most of the soldiers.

Soldiers don't really have any entertainment in the camp. On holidays, they would occasionally drop out of the camp for drinks in a nearby town, or spend salaries for prostitutes.

There is also an activity that is in demand, namely gambling.

The game of Young Master Dewey pleases everyone, and a game as fun as this can be used for gambling anyway.

The eyes of all the soldiers sparkled. Those who initially frowned from being eliminated from the first round smiled.

Young Master Dewey is really exciting. He understands their thoughts.

Everyone cheered so happily that Robert who was originally about to stop was hesitant. He saw Dewey at a glance, then sighed and said nothing.

Anyway, it's not a big deal. Besides, now is the time of improvement. The soldiers gambled was also natural. Let it.

Speaking of betting, Dewey had a lot of ideas.

What is the meaning of winning and losing ordinary.

Dewey immediately put out his idea.

Lose the ordinary win. Then bet who's the goal. When is the goal.

Even bet on who will be eliminated. There will be penalty kicks, and so on.

There are also some complicated ratios. One to several, several to one.

The soldiers and officers did not understand such a complicated number game. Dewey explained briefly. Everyone feels there is an opportunity and attractive, then go take the money.

Dewey smiled happily.

He was the one who received a complete mathematics education in his previous life. Few people in this world understand such a number game. Perhaps the four simplest arithmetic operations, not many scholars here understand.

Whereas Dewey can calculate and balance through numbers, plus limit some bets, then make the odds listed. Whoever wins or loses, Dewey still profits.

It must be admitted that the treatment received by the private soldiers of the Rollin family was quite good. Most of the soldiers had a reserve money of one or two gold coins. The officers have more. There are three to five gold coins that can be wagered.

More importantly, Dewey bet at the right time. After spring training, the soldiers had just received a salary.

The soldiers did not understand the winning of losing the ball. They only place bets based on people they like. For example, the ordinary is more familiar with whom, and does not like whom.

The second round of the match ended in the afternoon.

The busiest one was the secretary in the camp. They calculate bets and bonuses quickly.

Dewey smiled broadly after seeing the results.

Second round, ten games. Most of the soldiers who placed the bet, lost. Some lucky ones, win. Finally, the money that went into Dewey's pocket was 600 gold coins.

The most terrible of course the officers who have a lot of money.

This result satisfied Dewey.

There was also a little change. At the end of the match he watched, both sides fought fiercely. This was different from Dewey's previous estimates. After all, football is round. As clever as Dewey predicted, it couldn't possibly be so accurate. If the outcome of the game was different from what Dewey expected, then he might be able to get less.

Luckily before the game ended, someone saved Dewey.

The team that Dewey predicted won did not accidentally get a frontcourt. A cavalry stepped forward and kicked the ball beautifully.

After the game ended, Dewey called the hero who broke the goal. He saved Dewey's wallet.

This young man was in Robert's cavalry army. He is handsome with blonde hair, strong body and good spirit.

“What's your name?” ask Dewey.

“Young Master, my name is David. David Beckham.” The young man was a little embarrassed and nervous.

“ ....”

Dewey patted his wallet, today's game is over. After the second round, the remaining ten teams remain. These ten teams immediately got cheers like heroes. All the players are tired, but full of energy and spirit. Were it not for the sun already nearly setting, they might have been able to kick two more rounds.

However, the next ten teams remained. How competing?

If there is another elimination in one game, ten teams, two against two, there will be five teams left in the end. Five is an odd number, unable to fight in pairs anymore. There will be a team that has no opponents.

Dewey who had planned on smiling deviously.

“There's idea. Since the elimination system cannot be used, we use the league system.”

League system?

Dewey was quick to explain the league system, which is that each team must play against all opponents. Three points to win, one point to draw, no points to lose.

After the game ends, the team with the most points wins.

Dewey's really sneaky.

The more games, the more can be wagered.

“Honestly, you are so despicable.” At night, on the third-floor terrace of the small building, Semel looked at Dewey with a complicated gaze. “How did you get that idea?”

Dewey. “Cannot be said.”

“Do not think I do not know.” Semel looked at Dewey. “The space you created has been calculated several times. I found that whatever the end result, you as the bookie have a great chance of winning. How do you plan it? Opportunity, city, rules. It's all so complicated, how do you think?”

Dewey closed his eyes and began to meditate without explaining.

Uh, even though her legs are beautiful.

Tonight, Dewey still did not feel any star power.

However, after meditating all night, plus the mantra that Semel had told him, Dewey found that his spiritual power increased again.

If so, had he not been able to learn star magic, he would have nothing to lose as it could increase spiritual power.

Dewey could clearly sense that his spiritual power was becoming increasingly pure. Intentions ‘purni’ difficult to explain in words. All the details become clear.

For example, vision, hearing, smell, and others. While meditating, Dewey could hear the wind in the sky. Now that his spiritual power had become pure, Dewey could not only hear the sound of the wind, but could tell which wind was blowing from the sound of the wind, even judge the strength of the wind.

This sense of detail is more, the capture of spiritual power is more detail, every detail is clear. It feels very comfortable.

On the third day, the Rollin family's first football league led by Dewey began.

Dewey certainly knows not to just think about profits in plain sight. He also knew how many soldiers of the thousand warriors in the camp would participate. After all, soldiers were not rich. Military pay is also limited. If it is too draining their salaries, Dewey also feels himself despicable.

So, Dewey felt if he wanted to continue making money, he had to increase the scope of the game.

After discussing with the soldiers in the camp, the two sides finally made a deal.

Today, Sia was ordered to put up an announcement in a nearby town.

In a small town not far from the castle, Dewey used the Rollin family network to borrow the square for a day to the city lord.

Then Sia led two troops into the city to hold a football match.

A three-day football match made the townspeople love the sport. Dewey immediately moved the league's place in the camp to the city so as not to occupy the military field and influence the training of the soldiers.

Semel immediately revealed Dewey's intentions. “You don't have the heart to win any more warrior money and fear provoking rebellion, right?”

After the football league was moved to the city, this new sport immediately attracted a large crowd. Some kids are even starting to like this game.

Dewey then advises Sia to bring the betting people before the game starts.

“I am the inventor of football as well as the head of the world's first gambling group.” Dewey's value to himself.

Fuck despicable or honorable. Seven or eight days later, Dewey got thousands of gold coins.

The rich in this city are many. Some wealthy businessmen think this way of gambling is much more interesting than in a casino. The bets they place are usually tens or even hundreds of gold coins.

The news brought back by Sia made Dewey speechless.

First, some people started following him.

The sport quickly spread to the surrounding cities. Some places have already started playing this game, even some casinos have started organizing teams to play this game to attract customers.

The second was the thing that made Dewey sigh. There are people who try to control the game. Some people want to bribe soldiers and players to cheat. Some casinos began to engage in gambling operations off the table.

Dare to snatch Young Master Dewey's business? How can this be allowed?

Is the money in Dewey's wallet worth taking?

What's more, Dewey used this method to generate urgent funds. He did not want to be famous in the gambling industry. Moreover making gambling rampant in the Rollin family territory because of this.

Dewey immediately thought of an idea.

Two days later, in several cities of the territory of Rollin which is popular with football there was an announcement about exclusivity.

Within the Rollin family's territory was not allowed to engage in the game of football. The person who has the right to manage the game is the inventor of the game, Young Master Dewey.

Anyone who dares to run this gambling without a permit will be cracked down hard by the local government and taxation.

This decision is certainly issued by officials in power in the surrounding cities.

Is this exclusive business in line with imperial law?

Joking!

This was the territory of the Rollin family and all the officials received salaries from the Rollin family! Young Master Dewey had already opened his mouth, could it be that they had not done so?

So, Dewey bravely used the road ‘monopoli’.

Once he had the money, Dewey became more generous. He took out three thousand gold coins and gave them to a thousand soldiers in the military camp as a ransom for already winning their money, as well as a payment for their previous game.

The action immediately received cheers and support from the officers and soldiers of the castle guards! Although the Young Master's football game was indeed very interesting, it had drained their pockets. It was easy to cause criticism from some soldiers. Some are secretly unhappy.

Now looking at the gold coins being distributed, everyone was very satisfied. Bet most of the previous soldiers so back capital.

Dewey left a thousand gold coins, then spent the rest for the magic laboratory.

The magic experiment was a waste. Dewey felt it. Every two days, Solskjaer will file materials that must be purchased. The items ran out quickly, the price wasn't cheap either.

In just ten days, Dewey had already spent nearly five thousand, while Solskjaer had made no progress.

What exactly is Solskjaer researching?

He has two tasks. First, it extracts the fire element, which Dewey refers to as gunpowder, quantitatively every day.

Second, Solskjaer was looking for a way to overcome the difficulties that left him unable to increase his magic power.

In the past, Solskjaer could create magic elements to use low-level magic. But the limitations of induction power did not allow for using more advanced magic. Now, he has another strange way.

And this strange way of making Dewey feel that if it can really be realized, emptying his pockets though, is worth it.
