The Abyssal Garden: No Room for the Idle-Chapter 98 - 97 Silent Day is Coming Early (Two in One)
"?"
Su Qi looked at them strangely, "You people are quite shortsighted, this is obviously my beloved pet, Xiao Qiang."
"You don't believe me?"
Su Qi shouted in a low voice, "Xiao Qiang, lie down!"
The rock lay there steadfastly!
"Xiao Qiang, don't move!"
The rock didn't move a muscle!
The crowd watched silently as Su Qi played gleefully, thinking this guy must be crazy.
"Xiao Qiang, stand up!"
Some gamblers couldn't help but look over; they wanted to see how a rock could stand up.
But Su Qi paused, "Oh, I forgot, Xiao Qiang doesn't have legs; he can't stand up."
Damn!
Is that really the reason it can't stand up!
"Referee! Look at him!"
Everyone looked at the referee, and the referee looked at the rules, slowly saying,
"There's no restriction on pets; a rock can participate too."
Su Qi corrected him, "Say it again. It's not a rock; it has a name, called Xiao Qiang!"
The surrounding gamblers swore under their breath, "Can we start now? I can't wait to kick him and his rock out of here!"
The referee didn't hesitate any longer.
He declared the start!
Everyone stretched out their hand, and all sorts of abnormal pets crawled out from their sleeves. They sneered cruelly,
"Let's throw that rock out first!"
Su Qi calmly held the rock, caressing its surface as if truly communicating with it, "Next up, Xiao Qiang, it's all on you."
Then.
He threw the rock with all his might!
"Go, use Dive Attack!"
The burst of strength smashed an iron-armored, sharp-toothed bug to pieces.
"????" The pet owner's gambler turned pale, what are you doing!
"Referee!"
The referee's eyelid twitched, just about to speak.
But Su Qi merely smiled lightly, slowly uttering the chilling words, "Xiao Qiang! Kill!"
That rock actually changed form following his command!
"Puff puff puff!"
Suddenly, numerous dense silver-white metal spikes burst forth! They pierced through all the surrounding abnormal pets without resistance!
Everyone's eyes widened in fear at the dense spikes in the sandbox,
"What is this thing!"
"This is Xiao Qiang," Su Qi reminded coldly.
D238 liquid metal, once separated from his body, couldn't move by itself but it could change shape at will; these spikes might not be very powerful, but they were effective for scaring these little critters, either hitting them with an AOE or launching a surprise attack at close range.
At that moment, Su Qi slowly reached out and took it back, wiping off the blood stains, saying, "You worked hard, rock."
Everyone: "..."
"Now you know its name is rock!"
Su Qi ignored them, looking towards the referee, "My Xiao Qiang won, right?"
The referee was silent, unsure of how to respond as it did seem like no rules were broken; they had always assumed only living creatures would participate, who would have thought someone would bring a rock and wreak havoc?
Just then, the referee's expression paused as if someone was whispering in his ear, he took a deep breath, looking at Su Qi, "Rules now amended, only living beings may participate."
"You broke the rules, and the chips you just bet have been confiscated, property of the casino now."
Su Qi hadn't reacted yet, but the other gamblers already cried out in confusion,
"Why? Do we also lose our share?"
"Your mother's kiss, isn't this going overboard!"
The referee's cold gaze fixed on them, "These are the rules; if you have complaints, you can go feedback to the person who set the rules."
The gamblers were furious, yet dared not say more... The very existence who established and dictated the casino's rules was beyond their reach, too powerful for them to touch.
"Do you have any complaints?" The referee looked coldly at Su Qi.
Su Qi paused slightly, not showing annoyance, but muttered, "Amend the rules on a whim? Forcibly confiscating my chips? Does my opinion even matter?"
"But, the guy behind you, could he really amend the entire casino's rules?"
Su Qi casually stood up, taking his remaining coins and left the place.
The referee squinted, a voice whispering in his ear, "Find several referees with high spiritual power to watch him! Stare him down, the moment you see him using his abilities, strike immediately!"
"Also, don't let those rules get out just now; if that superior learns I arbitrarily altered his set rules, I'm done for."
It seems this presence wasn't the casino owner, the mention of that superior carried a deep sense of dread and fear.
While Su Qi had already noticed many eyes were on him.
Unperturbed, he continued to participate in the surrounding betting games.
Honestly.
Death Roulette and this Fighting Pet Beast still posed some challenge, as they relied on skills for wagering, but other games like Poker, guessing big or small, those were... downright easy! Plus, there was no way they could be detected.
But no matter, after all, they had struck first.
What Su Qi hadn't expected was.
Their shamelessness was even greater than his!
After Su Qi won three rounds consecutively, the referee reached out to stop the betting at that table.
Then fixed his gaze on him.
"Your name is Su Buxian, right?"
Su Qi smiled faintly, "What's up, you want me to sign something for you?"
The referee squinted, announcing coldly, "Su Buxian."
"You've been banned from all betting games!"
"?" Su Qi's eyebrows raised slightly, "Why?"

"There's no why."
The referee offered no explanation, the person behind him was cursing them for being useless, completely failing to see how Su Qi had cheated; he didn't believe in mere luck.
Moreover, there was no real fairness here, many aspects were manipulated by him! As a temporary casino Manager, he aimed to squeeze every last coin from these foolish gamblers!
