[CH399+ Continued] Dungeon Diver: Stealing A Monster's Power

Chapter 531

We walk through the room and I take in the scenes around me.

Many more bars and restaurants catch my eye, serving all kinds of food and drinks.

There are tables where people are sitting down playing cards, each player trying to hit numbers closest to 21 without going over while still beating the dealer.

I even pass a station where a man with long black curly hair sells circular rocks from three different bins.

Two hunters are sitting in front of him, trying to split open the hard stones with metal devices provided, but nothing but more grey stone is inside as I walk past.

It catches my interest, but even while using my all-seeing eye, I can't tell the difference between the rocks.

It isn't until we round another bend and the booth is almost completely out of sight that one of the hunters cracking open stones finds a bright crystal inside one and celebrates as the man behind the counter gives them a token in exchange.

Everything in this room seems to really be based entirely on luck, just like the woman at the bar we left said.

I see hunters getting drunk, some collapsing on the ground and being taken away to one of the back rooms by waiters that patrol the room, and others celebrating their winnings and buying exit cards to leave through one of the two exit doors in the back.

All we need is one more token each, but that doesn't mean I want to risk anything unnecessarily.

As we continue to walk through, one of the booths at the far side of the room is making the most noise and has the most people surrounding it.

It's a large open table that lit up with lights behind us when we were first ordering our meals, the roulette table I passed right when I entered this room.

There are over half a dozen hunters surrounding the table as we approach, and one hunter is talking to the thin table manager behind the counter.

Two hunters in high-grade gear stand at the back of the table silently looking down at the others. It's clear they're a cut above the rest. Both of them are over level 700. One has short spiky blond hair with an extreme lightning summoning skill just like mine.

The other is very muscular, has his head shaved bald, staring ahead with his sharp blue eyes, and I read his status to find he has an extreme grade water summoning skill.

Both of these hunters have mana control levels far higher than a level 800 or even a level 900 monster.

I get a quick look at their wristbands and see they're both from the Apex region. The lightning user's name is Trax, and the water wielder is Callum.

Trax points to one of the lower-level hunters sitting at the table and says something to him, and the hunter nods with a scared look in his eyes, turning to the table manager and coming to an agreement with him quickly. He takes one of three balls that are held out in the table manager's open palm and moves toward the game area of the table.

The hunter's hands are shaking as he steps up to the roulette wheel, and the man behind the counter spins it.

On the wrist of the shaking hunter's hand, I see that he's also from the Apex region, just like the two strong hunters standing over him, but his mana control is nowhere near theirs, it doesn't even surpass my own perceived level 600 control.

This makes me very curious.

Moments ago the wheel was all gray without any markings on it at all, but now that it's begun spinning, half of the wheel is red and the other half is green. On its surface, there are small ridges that are just wide enough for the ball to land in.
