The Understated Dragon Lord

Chapter 822 Jax Loses

Jax, with over two decades of experience in criminal investigations, was well-versed in all things related to bombs. He couldn't believe that a mere stone could trigger an explosion.

Daniel picked up a small stone from the ground and casually waved it in his hand. He reminded Jax, "Jax, watch closely! I've got the stone here. Once I toss it into that abandoned building, it will set off the bombs, causing a chain reaction of explosions."

"Daniel, go ahead and do it! But I don't believe that a small rock can trigger any bombs inside. And who's to say there are bombs at all? If there aren't any bombs, it doesn't matter if you throw a rock or drive a tank into the building-it won't explode," Jax retorted, his skepticism apparent.

Uncertain if there were any bombs in the abandoned building, Jax still believed the chances were slim. Even if there were bombs, a small rock certainly wouldn't set them off. He was confident of winning this bet.

Daniel tossed the small stone lightly, and it flew into the abandoned building, producing a series of clinks and clatters as it bounced off the walls. "Daniel, I didn't expect you to throw it so far and make it bounce around the walls like that. If it were a grenade, you'd probably throw it a mile," Jax remarked sarcastically before adding, "But the stone's been clattering around for a while now, and there's no explosion. Maybe there were no bombs in there to begin with. If that's the case, Daniel, you've lost. And you ought to keep your word-slap yourself and admit you're a liar."

Just as Jax finished speaking, a loud explosion rang out, and flames shot into the sky.

BOOM!

Everyone was momentarily stunned.

BOOM!

BOOM! BOOM!

A series of explosions followed,

The explosions continued for over ten minutes, turning the

Daniel turned to Jax, grinning, "Jax, you've lost. Time to pay up."

SLAP!

Jax slapped his face hard enough to make a loud sound, though it didn't hurt too much.Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

"I'm an idiot!"

"I'm a loser!"

Jax shouted, his voice clear and loud.

Despite his usual tendency to avoid danger and shirk responsibility, Jax was a man of his word. Having entered the bet, he accepted his loss without any excuses.
