In just three seconds, countless mineral water bottles, cans, fruit pits, and other miscellaneous items flew down from the stands on all four sides. There was also a large number of white paper slips — they were all tickets issued by the major gambling companies.
"Liars! You're all liars! "
"A bunch of sons of b * tches, give me my money back!"
"Bullsh * t, this is blatant manipulation of the competition!"
"Do they think we're idiots? Both of them are bastards! "
"Hey hey! Isn't this too much of a joke? Ancient Trace and Minotaur's remnant soul are gone just like that? "
"I strongly protest! Was that NHSAA referee an idiot? They're working together to cheat, cheating! "
"Bastards, if the NHSAA competition committee doesn't give us an explanation today, I'll go take a gun and kill them tomorrow."
"They're cheating us of our money! Hey! Does anyone want to go with me to the Gambling Regulatory Commission? "
"Yes, we can also go to the Gambling Regulatory Commission! We can work together to hire some lawyers, we can't let them be so unscrupulous! "
While all four stands were boiling over the result of Cadio Rhode's complete defeat, Abraham Archibald, who was in box 9, suddenly staggered a few steps back to his seat.
At first, he was in disbelief, but then he clenched his fists, his expression ferocious.
"Jakes! Where's the Gem of Destiny you mentioned? "
"I don't know!" Kalise Jakes's expression was solemn. "But it's clear that this gem can't help Cadio Rhode reverse his fate. We've miscalculated. This lucky André probably has the ability to suppress spirits. Minotaur's remnant soul has harmed him instead. "
"I don't care about that! I only know that he lost. You've violated our agreement, Jakes! "
Abraham's eyes were bloodshot, like a defeated bull. "Correspondingly, I will also take back my promise to you!"
"Understood."
Kalise Jakes couldn't help but sigh. "This is my fault. However, Mr Abraham, I suggest that you take action as soon as possible. I'm guessing that the gambling companies will join forces to pressure the NHSAA's competition committee to evaluate the fairness of this competition. This will help them deal with the Gambling Regulatory Commission. "
"Check?"
Abraham couldn't help but frown. "Didn't you promise me that the seven Crete Black Blood Stones on Cardio Rhodes would be enough to handle any investigation?"
"That was before."
Kalise Jakes's figure had already disappeared from the glass window, but his voice still lingered in the room. "The problem is that André. He has the ability to suppress souls. It's very likely that André Rhodes and the Minotaur's remnant soul will reject each other. This is not good, Mr. Abraham. The possibility of him being discovered using a forbidden technique is 100%! "
Hearing this, Abraham Archibald broke out in a cold sweat. He knew that if there was something wrong with Cardio Rhodes, then the Acadis Sporting Goods Company would face disastrous consequences.
The current measures were either to stop the NHSAA's competition committee, or to find a way to cut ties with Cardio Rhodes.
At the same time, in room 45, Jennifer Wildenstein sighed softly and stood up from her seat. "Oliver, go to the Cardinal Club now and issue a commission. I need to hire two quasi-legends for three years! The faster, the better. "
"Yes, I'll rush to Linnet in a moment."
Oliver looked worried. "But Miss, I have to remind you that the financial pressure we're facing now is very heavy."
"How could I not know? We've expanded our business too much. If we're not careful, we might run out of funds. "
Jennifer sighed softly. "But if I don't do this, I might be kicked out of the Wildenstein Group in a few months. There's a saying in the East, 'drinking poison to quench thirst'. I'm in such a state right now. If I don't drink this bottle of poison, I might lose it right now. After drinking it, I can live for at least two or three months. We have to buy time, Oliver. "
Oliver wanted to say something but stopped. In the end, he took back the words on the tip of his tongue and smiled bitterly. "I hope there'll be a turn for the better in the next few months."
"Don't worry, Oliver. If there's really no other way, I'll sell my development base in the dark world. I won't let myself fall into complete bankruptcy."
At this time, Jennifer looked outside the glass window with a strange look in her eyes. She glanced at Li Mochen, who was walking down the ring. "After you go to the Cardinal Club to issue the commission, hire a more skilled magic energy hunter to keep an eye on Christian Wildenstein's movements. I don't expect to know what he's doing, but at least where he is — "
…
At the same time, in room 3, Alec Bruder was talking to someone on the phone. "Yes, we at Penguin Gambling hope that a third party will intervene. If possible, it's best to invite professional media people to supervise the whole process. Yes, this is very troublesome. But this is also beneficial for the NHSAA Competition Committee to maintain their credibility and reputation, right? I can already foresee the media storm tomorrow. If we don't do a comprehensive and thorough investigation, everyone will be in trouble. "
"The whole process is indeed a little unexpected, even unbelievable. But I guarantee that we didn't do anything. We didn't interfere with this game in any way. We can't bear this bad reputation. You understand, right? This is really great. I'll treat you to coffee another day — "
After Alec hung up the phone, he saw Dwight Payton holding a glass of Bordeaux red wine in front of him.
Alec immediately laughed. He took the glass from Dwight's hand and raised it high. "Let's have a toast! To the lucky André! And to Penguin Gambling and Nathan Sports Group. "
In the entire room, all the employees of Penguin Gambling and Naessen responded at the same time, creating a deafening uproar. Dwight Payton, on the other hand, smiled bitterly. "There's no need to make such a big fuss, Alec. I think the Gambling Regulatory Commission will be questioning and investigating us next. Let's keep a low profile, okay?"
The fact that the people from Nathan Sports Group and the bookies were mixed together was easy to make people think.
"Because we foresaw this, we opened the window and recorded the whole process, didn't we? We really didn't do anything. I think the Gambling Regulatory Commission will at most give us a fine for 'deliberately misleading public opinion'. "
Alec smiled nonchalantly. "Be happy, Dwight! You guys are the ones who made a big profit this time. I think the sales of Nathan Sports Group next week will start at one billion! "
"I hope so! But this still pales in comparison to the profits of Penguin Gambling. You guys made at least 1.3 billion gold duns this time, didn't you? Most of this is pure profit. "
Dwight Payton smiled and finished the red wine in his glass. "Besides, I have a headache now."
"Headache?"
Alec Bruder was startled at first, but then he smiled in understanding. "Yes, Dwight. It's too fast. Andre was indeed very strong. Among the high school students, there were not many who could last a round against him. But this is too unfriendly to the TV stations and the audience who are broadcasting the game. You have to persuade him, Dwight. He has to at least fight a few dozen rounds with someone. Only then will it be worth watching. This is good for everyone, isn't it? EMM ~ How about we start with his next opponent? "
But after hearing this, Dwight couldn't help but look at Alec. "What are you up to again?"
He knew that Li Mochen's opponent in the semi-finals was called Bruder. He was a magic swordsman who lost to James Lance in about 30 rounds half a year ago.
