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

Chapter 531

I count 18 green ridges and 19 red ones.

My best guess is green is good and red is bad, but I'm still not sure what is on the line. All I can do is watch and find out.

The manager speaks.

"Please, make your spin."

The hunter takes a deep breath in and out, then spins the small ball around the upper ring of the spinning device in the opposite direction that the red and green wheel is spinning.

It rotates around the wooden wheel a few times, slowly with each rotation, and the manager speaks up as a small hole in the center of the table appears.

"Your bet has been placed on the high-risk roll, please insert your right arm up to the shoulder in the machine."

The man's arm is shaking even more now than it was when he spun the wheel, but he closes his eyes and shoves it inside anyway.

There's a clicking sound that locks his arm in place, and the whole table silently watches the small white ball spin around and around on the wheel.

The tension increases every rotation.

A woman, who happens to be another hunter from the Apex region with long white hair and worried green eyes, sits next to the man that just placed his bet.

Everyone's watching the ball spin and spin, and all other distractions from around the room fade away as the ball curves down and hits the green slot right on the edge of where the colors collide on the table.

Everyone's breath is held, but gasps fill the air as the ball bounces out and falls into the red area just a single slot away.

It rolls around inside the red slot, losing momentum as it tries to roll out, but within seconds it settles completely and everyone stares at the wheel as it continues to spin around the table in a hypnotic fashion.

I feel a surge of mana come from beneath the table and a metallic sound of gears turning, then the hunter's arm that's beneath the table jolts and he lets out a scream.

The lock holding him in place releases and he pulls out a stump where his arm used to be.

My eyes widen, but everyone else at the table just looks saddened like they knew that would happen.

The woman with white hair turns to him and immediately begins using her single skill on the affected area.

[Soft Heal][Legendary Grade]

I watch both her and the injured hunter drink multiple C-Grade mana potions taken from a pouch on their sides, and the missing limb starts to slowly grow back.

The lightning user points down at another hunter at the table to take his place while he heals and speaks in a commanding tone.

"You're next. He's all out of bets."

He jingles three black tokens around in his hand, pointing to his partner next to him.

"I have enough for me, but now we need a room for Callum. We're the stars of the show here, we need to be fully rested for tomorrow."

Without question, the next hunter places a bet and goes through the same process as the other hunter just did.

He chooses from three balls in the manager's hand labeled 1, 2, and 3. Every time he picks the 3, and the same split green and red table appears.

This hunter is far luckier than the last.

His first two spins land on green, and there's a light show to celebrate when he wins.
