Woohoo!

Accompanied by a short whistle, the tall chimney spewed thick black smoke, and the huge passenger ship slowly left the pier.

Countless passengers leaned on the deck railing and waved goodbye to the people seeing them off.

Many people shed tears.

At this moment, Ronan is sitting on the small balcony of the first-class cabin, tasting bitter coffee and stroking Little Black lying in his arms, feeling calm and calm.

Not long after, Blue Star passenger liner left Rand City far behind and sailed into the boundless sea.

This giant ship carrying more than 3,000 passengers will travel thousands of kilometers north along the coastline, passing through multiple seaport cities, including Selis, the capital of the Kingdom of Inveria.

For Ronan, riding a ship is not a novel experience.

But this giant sea ship in the steam age still brought him a lot of freshness.

Blue Star can be said to be the most high-tech experience of Kingdom of Invya. This passenger ship is not only huge in tonnage, but also equipped with opera houses, casinos, restaurants, bars and other places inside, so that passengers will not be lonely during the journey.

Ronan has no interest in musicals, nor does he like to hang out in bars.

But he soon found his own joy in this passenger ship.

In the luxuriously decorated room, well-dressed gentlemen sat around the gaming table covered with purple velvet. They held Black Forest Card in their hands and silently exchanged glances with each other.

Trying to find out the details of your opponent in this way.

This was a bet in which the total bet exceeded five hundred gold pounds. There were beads of sweat on the foreheads of several participants, revealing the level of pressure they were experiencing.

Ronan glanced at the opponents on his left and right, and then played five consecutive cards of the same suit.

There was a burst of lamentation in the room, and several opponents threw away the cards in their hands in pain and helplessness and chose to admit defeat.

In this card game involving seven people, four people were eliminated by the hand of Ronan.

There were only two opponents left.

"Add it."

Ronan put up his last bargaining chip without thinking, "I'll show my cards right!"

Showing the bright cards means stud, and everyone must show all their trump cards to win - the winner takes all.

His two opponents looked at each other with hesitation.

Because the game has been played so far, if the two of them choose to retreat, they can make a small profit steadily.

But if you lose against the open card with Ronan, not only will you have to give up all your profits, but you will also have to lose your own capital.

The risks are undoubtedly considerable.

One of them thought for a moment, then folded the cards and chose not to follow.

But another young noble said harshly, "I don't believe your luck will always be so good, take the gamble!"

He chose to follow the card and fight to the death with Ronan!

As a result, the young noble was dumbfounded the next moment.

Ronan showed his trump card, and it turned out to be a trump card.

The trump card is the biggest and unrivaled!

"Gan!"

The young nobleman was furious, slapped the Black Forest Card in his hand heavily on the gaming table, and spat at Ronan: "You are a beast, you must have cheated!"

He was also desperate to lose today. He had already lost more than 700 gold pounds against his opponent Ronan.

In the deck of cards just now, the one he held in his hand was the Duke card, which had a great chance of winning.

Unexpectedly, Ronan's trump card turned out to be a trump card!

Faced with the curses and rebuke of the young noble, Ronan immediately darkened his face. "Baron Bradley, you can eat whatever you want, but you can't say random words. What evidence do you have to prove that I cheated?"

"And for the insult to you..."

He stood up and looked directly at the opponent. "Let's duel!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Ronan reached out and grabbed a white glove from a few meters away, and then smashed it into the opponent's face!

There was a sudden silence in the room.

Baron Bradley should have been furious, but the young noble's face flushed red and the veins on his forehead were bulging, but he remained silent.

The reason is very simple, Ronan is actually an extraordinary person!

"Baron Bradley, please apologize to Mr. Ronan."

At this time, a middle-aged businessman quickly stood up to smooth things over. "Mr. Ronan, please forgive Baron Bradley for his impulsiveness and recklessness. We don't need to use a duel to solve the problem."

"Yeah, yeah!"

Other gamblers present started to persuade him.

They didn't expect that Ronan was a transcendent person. At the same time, they saw Baron Bradley's timidity and shrinkage, and tried to persuade him to make peace out of not wanting to make the matter too big.

Ronan looked at Baron Bradley and sneered.

The young nobleman lowered his head and said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Ronan. I apologize for my inappropriate words and am willing to compensate you for the loss of your reputation."

He took out a cash check from his pocket and pushed it in front of Ronan along with his chips.

If Ronan is an ordinary person, or even an ordinary little noble, Baron Bradley has no fear.

If you scold, just scold, if you question, question, he doesn't need to be afraid at all.

But Ronan's ability to take photos from the air just revealed made this young nobleman feel instinctive awe and fear.

He regarded Ronan as the caster.

And spell casters have many means to make a person die inexplicably!

"I accept your apology."

Ronan pocketed the opponent's chips and apology, and said calmly, "I won't do this next time."

Although he had both dignity and face, he was not very happy in his heart.

Because of this, who will play cards with Ronan again in the future?

His wonderful life of making money every day can no longer exist!

Although extraordinary people do not have clairvoyance to see through their opponent's cards, no ordinary person is willing to bet against extraordinary people.

In fact, Ronan also relies on cheating to win every poker game.

Forget it, just accept it when you're done!

He left the room angrily and returned to his cabin.

There are two casinos inside Blue Star. The upper level is exclusively for first-class and VIP class passengers to play cards and gamble. Ronan joined the gambling game on the third day after boarding the ship.

At the beginning, he patiently made his nest while losing and winning, and only let go when the time was right.

As a result, I had just been enjoying myself for a few days when I was disturbed by this Baron Bradley.

To be honest, Ronan has the heart to kill people.

Is it easy for him to earn some "living expenses"?

After returning to the cabin, Ronan took stock of what he had gained during this period.

He won a total of more than 3,700 gold pounds!

This is a huge amount of income. As long as you don't squander it carelessly, you can live comfortably for a long time in any city, including the royal capital of Selis.

However, having seen the extravagance of extraordinary people, Ronan didn't realize how high this gold pound was.

I have to find a way to make more money!

Thinking that this time he went to Ceres, in addition to studying at the Royal Higher Police Academy, he also had to study alchemy. Ronan felt that his money-making plan had to be re-planned.

Woo~

While he was thinking, a shrill alarm suddenly sounded in the cabin!
