Chapter 1995: Chapter 1995: The First Research Institute Is Hard to Enter—Hope You Won’t Regret It

Until they each chose the three stones they wanted, as they brushed past each other, he said to the girl: "The First Research Institute is not easy to enter, I hope you won’t regret it."

Nathalie Quinlan thought he was going to say something, turned back, and casually replied: "Let’s strive together!"

The two parted on bad terms.

Hansel Kingsley walked away with a grim face.

...

Stone gambling is a unique game in Inderia.

It involves a great deal of luck.

Additionally, it tests the sharp judgment of those playing the stone gambling game!

Hansel Kingsley, considering his age, believed that his eye for stones would not lose to a young person.

He confidently chose the three stones he wanted, just waiting for Nathalie Quinlan to finish her selection.

Nathalie Quinlan was quick, finishing almost at the same time as he did.

With both parties having chosen their three stones, next, professionals would publicly cut open the stones to see what materials were inside.

Sadam Vinson had promised not to be nervous, but when the moment arrived, his heart tightened, nervously turning to ask Amadeus Yancey: "Amadeus, do you think Nathalie will make it?"

"Hmm?" Amadeus Yancey raised the tone at the end, not responding to him, constantly keeping an eye on the movements on stage.

Soon, the underground auction venue prepared for two professionals to simultaneously start with the first stone.

First is stone washing.

Nathalie Quinlan’s chosen stone was smaller in size compared to Hansel Kingsley’s, and it appeared uneven with a very ordinary appearance.

After washing, the stone is polished along its texture.

This was the first stone chosen by Nathalie Quinlan and Hansel Kingsley, everyone was eager to see the results.

So the underground auction venue was almost silent, everyone focusing intently on the staff’s every move on stage.

Soon, the two stones were simultaneously polished.

The stone chosen by Hansel Kingsley vaguely revealed yellow translucent patterns, indicating there was material inside.

Meanwhile, the stone Nathalie Quinlan chose still looked like green stone fragments after polishing, showing little promise.

Indeed, the two stones were cut open.

The stone chosen by Hansel Kingsley revealed jade material, while Nathalie Quinlan’s revealed nothing, it was still just stone inside!

The first stone was cut open.

Hansel Kingsley’s tense expression slightly relaxed, his mouth curled into a slight smile. Seeing the girl nearby still with that defiant look, he couldn’t quite hold his breath, nearly choked with anger.

Next came the second stone.

Under everyone’s watch, the second stone chosen by both sides was also cut open.

The stone selected by Hansel Kingsley yielded some scraps, the material was poor, but better than nothing.

Nathalie Quinlan’s stone was still just stone inside.

...

The underground auction venue was boiling over.

"The second one is still stone."

"Can she gamble stones or not? She must be messing around."

"Do you think the third one won’t reveal jade material either?"

With two consecutive stones being just rock, even Sadam Vinson was uncertain, not knowing what to say, just nervously tensing his shoulders, discreetly clenching his hands at his sides, standing there waiting for the results from the third stone.

If the third stone still turns out to be just rock, Nathalie Quinlan would undoubtedly lose.

Even if Nathalie Quinlan’s third stone revealed jade material, Hansel Kingsley had already uncovered one jade piece earlier, Nathalie wouldn’t necessarily win. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎

Nathalie Quinlan’s situation wasn’t good.

Hansel Kingsley was already almost certain to win.

He was extremely relaxed at this moment, waiting for the third stone to be cut open.
