Chapter 309 Wealthy
God of Gambling?
Upon hearing this, Cole and Celestia were momentarily stunned.
“The God of Gambling is the overlord of the entire underground forces in New Bay. The York family has been developing in New Bay for many years, and I have somewhat of a connection with him. If I approach him for help, he’ll definitely lend me a hand,” explained Wendell.
“Dad, I didn’t expect you to know such a prominent figure! What are we waiting for? Let’s hurry up and seek help from this God of Gambling!” urged Celestia eagerly.
“Alright.” Wendell nodded.
The group got into the car, preparing to find the God of Gambling of New Bay.
Inside a luxurious suite at New Bay Grand Hotel, a conversation was taking place.
“Caspian, why didn’t you wipe out Wendell and the others?” Sylvia questioned with confusion.
They had a perfect opportunity to eliminate Wendell and Cole earlier.
If Caspian had given the command, none of them would’ve escaped. Sylvia couldn’t understand why he didn’t do it.
“Wendell and his group no longer pose any threat. Even the last trump card of the York family has been destroyed by me.
“Right now, Wendell is no different from a defeated dog. I did this to rectify the atmosphere in New Bay. The entire city is shrouded in chaos, and the gambling scene is rampant.
“Diatoran allowed the existence of New Bay out of necessity. I want to take this chance to improve the environment here,” Caspian explained with a smile.
New Bay was an ongoing issue for the nation. Over the years, the place had developed rapidly, but the label of being a gambling city was deeply ingrained. Many real estate tycoons and wealthy people came here to gamble, causing ordinary folks to lose everything they had.
This was a form of spiritual corrosion in Diatoran. Caspian aimed to rectify the atmosphere in New Bay and help the people regain their normal lives. People couldn’t rely solely on luck to live as they needed to be grounded.
This time, the forces in New Bay would undergo a significant reshuffling. Those controlling the casinos behind the scenes would face severe punishment.

Brandy Villa was located in the prime spot of New Bay as it was surrounded by sea on all sides. Many longed to live here.
Within the villa area was a massive mansion spanning thousands of acres.
There wasn’t a soul in New Bay who didn’t know this place.
This was the domain of New Bay’s God of Gambling.
“God of Gambling! Azuria Casino of the York family is being investigated. Please help me! Otherwise, the York family is finished!”
Wendell cried in the villa.
Seated at the high position was a man in his 60s or 70s.
The man was dressed in a suit with a blue feather adorning his suit pocket.
He exuded an extraordinary air just by sitting there.
He was Charles Hoff, the God of Gambling.
Charles‘ life could be described as legendary. Many people often discussed his amazing life.
When he was in his 20s, Charles arrived in New Bay with only a few dollars.
After decades of hard work, he became the wealthiest person in New Bay. He controlled 80 percent of the city’s industry.
His wealth was unimaginable.
However, what was strange was that Charles rarely gambled himself. He would merely command his subordinates to gamble for him.
“Mr. York, when I was developing in New Bay, the York family lent me a hand. Since you’ve asked, I can help you inquire about the situation.” Charles smiled and looked at Wendell.
“Jean, call Deputy Gibson and ask what exactly happened,” Charles instructed a young man. beside him.
“Yes!” The young man nodded.
The young man was Charles‘ son, Jean Hoff. He was only in his 20s, but he radiated an aura that overshadowed many of his peers.
He handled many of the Hoff family’s industries now.
Seeing this, Wendell breathed a sigh of relief.
With Charles‘ identity and status in New Bay, even the governor would have to respect him.
As long as he was willing to help, even Deputy Gibson would have to listen to his command.

Perhaps by then, Wendell could reopen Azuria Casino.
After making a call, Jean’s expression turned grim.
“What’s wrong?” Charles asked.
“Dad, Deputy Gibson said that the York family has offended a big shot, and no one can save them,” Jean answered.
Upon hearing this, Charles‘ expression darkened as he was a little surprised.
Previously, Jackson had shown respect toward him.
But today, he was being so firm. It seemed that the York family had indeed angered a powerful figure.
However, Jackson couldn’t clarify the matter directly.
At this moment, Charles also had a rough idea. It seemed that this big shot was not someone he could easily provoke.
“I’d like to know who the York family has offended?” he asked curiously. He had spent many years in New Bay and had seen all kinds of people. Were there any figures he couldn’t afford to offend?
“That person’s name is Caspian,” Wendell replied after thinking for a moment.
“Caspian? He’s not from New Bay, right? What’s his background?” Charles‘ brows furrowed.
He realized that he didn’t know anyone named Caspian.
There was no such person in New Bay.
“Caspian is indeed not from New Bay. He’s the son–in–law of the Stewart family in Southlake City,” Wendell explained.
“Son–in–law?”
After hearing this, Charles was even more puzzled.
He had always looked down on people with no ambition.
But how could a mere son–in–law be prominent enough to corner Wendell to such an extent?
“God of Gambling, you may not be aware, but Caspian’s identity is extraordinary. He served in the military for several years, and he wiped out Mahayan Pavilion of Easton and Galecrest of
Naporia!
“The latest news is that he also wiped out the Jennings family of Sealand!” Wendell panicked.
“Is that so?” Charles widened his eyes.

ONUS
He knew of these forces mentioned by Wendell. They were the dominant powers in the southern part of Diatoran. Yet, they were all wiped out by Caspian?
This indicated that Caspian was definitely not an ordinary person.
Charles wasn’t ignorant either. Diatoran was vast, and there were many powerful figures he didn’t know.
“Mr. York, I’m sorry. I can’t help you with this matter.” Charles sighed.
He had been navigating on the edge of a knife in New Bay for many years.
He definitely wouldn’t provoke an unknown person for the sake of the York family now.
If the person had a strong background, the entire Hoff family would be in trouble.
Wendell had anticipated that Charles would refuse to help. However, instead of rushing, he calmly continued, “God of Gambling, there’s one more thing I want to tell you. Caspian seems to specifically deal with underground forces in each city.
“The Hoff family controls 80 percent of the wealth in New Bay. I’m sure there have been some illegal activities involved. Caspian won’t spare you, just like what happened to Galecrest back then…”
He stopped halfway.
He didn’t need to spell out everything as he was sure Charles understood what he meant. Caspian was definitely a nightmare for people like them.
