Shan Yi didn't know what kind of medicine he was selling in his gourd, so he got up and took a scroll and a pen.

"First, remember the monsters with the same strength together."

"Two at the end of the fifth level: Red Jackal pays 4,500 for 1,000; Night Charm Monkey pays 4,000 for 1,000."

"Two monsters at the early stage of the sixth level: the green owl pays 4,020 for 1,000; the three-headed fire python pays 4,030 for 1,000."

"Three mid-level sixth-level monsters: the Blade Tiger pays 3,080 for 1,000; the Double-Horned Rhinoceros pays 3,800 for 1,000; and the Rainbow Eagle pays 3,500 for 1,000."

"Three late-level sixth-level monsters: the thorn beast pays three thousand and three for one thousand; the evil pincer pays two thousand eight for one thousand; and the half-orc pays two thousand and nine for one thousand."

Liangchen read it while remembering it.

Mugulou and Shanyi next to them also looked at it in confusion, not knowing why.

After he finished copying, Shanyi couldn't help but ask:

"Brother, what are you doing? Can you tell whether you win or lose from these odds!?"

"I'm just guessing. Look at these odds, do you see anything?"

"It's nothing." The master and servant of the Mu family looked at it carefully again and shook their heads.

"For example, if you are the banker, you must know these ten monsters very well, and you may have even let them compete in private. If you want to say which monster is the most powerful, it must be the banker behind the scenes who has the most say."

"This is the premise. Under this premise, if you are a bookmaker, will you lower the odds of the monster you think is most likely to win, and raise the odds of the monster that is unlikely to win?

This has two advantages. First, if the monster you are optimistic about wins, because the odds are lower, the loss will be the smallest and the profit will be the largest.

On the other hand, it attracts some people who are greedy for high odds to bet money on unfavorable monsters. "Liangchen analyzed.

"Yes, yes!" Shanyi nodded in agreement.

"That seems to be the truth. If I were a banker, even if I didn't do anything, I would definitely know the strength of the monster. When announcing the odds like this, I would know it well." Mu Gulou nodded slowly as if he understood.

"In this case, can we tell which monster is stronger from the odds?!" Liangchen said with a smile.

"Yes! Yes!" Shan Yi suddenly realized.

"But it's normal for monsters to have different realms and different proportions. How to compare them?" Mu Gulou asked.

"So we list and compare the monsters of the same realm. We can only briefly analyze the monsters of the same realm and see which one the dealer is more optimistic about!" Liangchen explained.

"Look, there are two late-level fifth-level monsters. The red jackal pays 4,500 and the night magic monkey only pays 4,000. So the night magic monkey must be more powerful." Liangchen said and wrote it down on another page. The name of the night charm monkey.

"I understand. At the early stage of the sixth level, Qing Xiao must be more powerful!" Shan Yi said eagerly, looking at the list Liangchen made.

"Yes, that's the bookmaker's view."

As he spoke, Liangchen listed the monster with the lowest odds in each realm.

They are: Night Magic Monkey, Green Owl, Rainbow Eagle, and Evil Pincer.

"Brother Ye, what do you mean, if he wins, it will most likely be one of these four?" Mu Gulou stared at the list and asked with some disapproval.

"This is just an idea I had after trying to figure out the banker's intentions. I'm not sure whether this will be the specific result." Liangchen replied.

"Look at the odds of the Night Demon Monkey, which is the lowest in this realm. It only pays 4,000, which is lower than the odds of the two monsters in the early sixth level! What does this mean? Does it mean that the Night Demon Monkey is more likely to win? Shan Yi asked, staring at the list of only four monsters.

"And this Rainbow Eagle is only two hundred gold lower than the Thorn Beast. It has almost the same odds as the late-level sixth-order monster! Is it so powerful?"

"I'm not sure about this, but I think the dealer behind the scenes must have a reason for giving this odds!"

"Of course, it is also possible that they are leading us to think this way and letting us fall into their trap." Liangchen thought uncertainly.

"Then how should we kill it?" Mu Gulou looked at the half-orc that was not his own among the four monsters on the list. Although he didn't know whether it was true or not, he still felt a little disappointed.

"This evil pincer has extremely strong defense, and the odds are so low. I think it's good!" Liangchen thought for a while and said.

"And this Rainbow Eagle, with such low odds, may not become a dark horse! You can also bet a small amount of money to prevent it from winning unexpectedly!" Liangchen thought for a while and said.

"Then let's buy another 100,700 evil pincers, or 5,000 10th rainbow eagles." Mu Gulou thought for a moment.

"Don't bet so much, just have fun. We came here to feel the power of the monster. Although we have made a lot of profits, there is no need to bet so heavily." Liangchen heard that he was going to bet one hundred thousand, and secretly sighed in his heart. This rich kid is indeed the no the same.

Adding in the 10,000 I placed earlier, it becomes more than 110,000. It would take me several months of hard work to earn so much!

"Yes, Master. It's not good for Master to know!" Shan Yi said and winked outside the door.

"There are some guards at the door. I have to go back and tell you."

"Then let's pay 50,000." Mu Gulou thought for a while, but also had some scruples, and changed his words.

"Brother Ye, can you get down?" Mu Gulou turned around and asked Liangchen.

"I'll spend ten thousand to accompany you. It's a rare trip, and maybe you can win some windfall! Haha..." Liangchen thought for a while and said with a smile.

The few people discussed for a while and determined the number of bets and monsters for the next day. Then the master and servant went back to the house to rest.

On the second day, several people got up early and went straight to the Colosseum.

When we got to the door, there was already a sea of ​​people.

"I heard there might be a big upset this time!" a man said in a low voice.

"Real or fake? What's the big upset?" asked another person.

"The Night Monkey may win!" the man said mysteriously.

"Don't be ridiculous, the realm is a big step away. Besides, there are so many monsters fighting in melee. How many can it control?" Another person said in disbelief.

"Really! You Night Monkey's odds are so low!" the man explained.

"The low odds don't mean anything. The odds are not as low as those of the three late-stage monsters, right?" The man shook his head and said.

"A friend of mine is working there. Although he didn't name him, he told me to pay more attention to this monster." The man didn't believe it when he heard it, and he revealed something.

"Really?" Another man asked, seemingly moved after hearing what he said.

"Really, this is..." The man's voice became lower and lower as he spoke.

Liangchen and the others walked along and listened to various gossips. .

For a moment, I didn't know whether it was true or false, and almost changed my mind.

"Number 9 will win, don't worry!" an old man said mysteriously.

"It's not that it's too popular, but it's the least likely to win?" a thin man next to him asked doubtfully.

"Yes, yes. I've been playing No. 9 lately. If I win, the city lord won't have to die!" Another person echoed.

"You're kidding! You have all the strength and experience, but it can't win? Who can win!" The old man raised his eyebrows and said with a hint of contempt.

"Besides, you have bet with me so many times and you have lost several times!"

"That's right. I'm good at betting!" echoed another person next to him.

"..."

Just like that, several people walked to the case where they were betting and stopped.

"What do you say? Do you want to change it? Brother Ye." Mu Gulou looked at him with questioning eyes and asked.

"Let's follow our own analysis! After all, it's all random guessing..." Liangchen thought about it and made up his mind not to change it.

,

"I'll bet No. 7 Evil Pincer 50,000, and No. 10 Rainbow Eagle 5000." Mu Gulou nodded when he saw what he said.

"Give me the number 17,000." Liangchen also said.

"Okay." Two capable young people greeted him immediately.

The young man took out a jade plaque with an animal head, took out a silver pen, dipped it in a bottle of special ink next to it, and then wrote a few words on it:

"No. 7, Ten Thousand Beast Gold"

As soon as the light green ink touched the jade plaque, it emitted a faint light and quickly penetrated into the jade plaque, as if the words were originally written inside!

The young man handed the jade token to Liangchen and then started to greet the next person.

Several people placed their bets, as if a stone had fallen from their hearts, chatting and laughing as they prepared to go shopping.

Suddenly a tall man appeared next to him. Seeing several people placing their bets, he came over and asked, "Have you bought the admission tickets for this afternoon?"
