At 12 o'clock in the morning, the online Lantern Festival event officially started.
Amid players' expectations, the Lucky Wheel was launched in the mall.
This is the first time a lottery event has appeared in the game. Basically, all players are eager to try it. They can't help but open the mall, invest soul coins, and begin to accept the judgment of fate.
At this time, in front of the door of the Tongzhang Casting Room, a group of players were sitting together, each holding a deck of cards in their hands.
The most exciting one among them is the copper hanging.
He had already lost more than a dozen games in a row this night. If he continued to lose, he would lose his pants, and he would almost lose all the soul coins earned by forging equipment.
This one now is the key to his life or death.
"A 3!" Ye Chen looked at the cards in his hand and threw out a 3.
"King!" Seeing Ye Chen play the cards, Tonghang lifted his clothes and threw out two cards domineeringly.
"No cards have been played, right?" Tong Gua glanced at everyone with pride. Seeing that everyone was silent, Tong Gua finally threw out the "3" in his hand.
"Hahaha, you are all stupid. Do you think you can always beat me? Come on, come on, give me money!"
Tong Gua, who won money for the first time, was very happy. After collecting the soul coins, he couldn't help but take out the wood spirit wine hanging on his waist and took a few sips.
"Come on, come on, let's continue. Today, Mr. Tongzhao will not make you cry. I will write my name upside down!"
Hearing this, Ye Chen and other players were ashamed. They couldn't remember how many times Tong Gua's name had been reversed during this period.
"No, no, the event has started. Keep the soul coins for the lottery. I have to make glutinous rice balls later, so that's it for today."
"Yes, yes, the Lantern Festival event has started, let's forget it for today..."
"It's gone, it's gone!"
…
Seeing the players all stand up and start to leave, Tong Gua froze on the spot.
It was so hard to win against them once, but they actually ran away like this? At this moment, Tong Gua's heart was full of unwillingness and unfulfilled desires.
"What a crappy turntable, is it so fun?"
Thinking of this, Tonghang picked up the clothes on the ground, turned around and entered the house.
After lying back on the bed, Tong Gua couldn't help but click on the shopping mall interface, wanting to see what the so-called lucky wheel was and whether it was fun to play cards.
5 soul coins at a time?
Seeing the introduction on the turntable, Tong Gua glanced at his remaining 1038 soul coins and thought about it, just play it once.
So he spent 5 soul coins to exchange for a lottery opportunity.
After Tong Gua pressed the "Start" button in the middle of the turntable, the turntable began to rotate rapidly, and the picture began to blur.
After about three seconds, the rotation speed of the lucky wheel slowed down, and the pointer began to emerge, slowly pointing to "nothing".
Seeing this scene, Tong Gua couldn't help but sigh, thinking, it's really unreliable, how could he give soul coins to players for no reason.
[Game Tips: Congratulations, you won the grand prize of 500 soul coins!]
This reminder made Tong Gua, who had already given up, his eyes widen.
You can really win the lottery! It’s fake!
Tonggua, who was full of doubts, couldn't help but buy another lottery opportunity and clicked the draw button.
[Game Tip: Congratulations, you won the grand prize of 300 soul coins!]
Tonggua, who won the prize again, felt dizzy, and he won 800 after just two games. How much fine wine from the Wood Spirit Tribe could this buy?
Under the huge temptation of winning the lottery, this time Tonggua purchased 20 lottery opportunities at one time and started spinning the lucky wheel continuously.
[Game Tips: Congratulations, you won 1 soul coin! 】
[Game Tip: Congratulations, you have drawn a level 10 (white) weapon! 】
[Game Tips: Unfortunately, you did not win this time...]
…
The continuous game prompts made Tong Gua stunned. Then he jumped up from the bed with red eyes and threw his clothes on the bed:
"I don't believe that I can't help you!"
Tong Gua, who was inspired by his gambling habit, bought 100 lottery opportunities this time, thinking that if he won the big prize once, he could make back his money, and if he won twice, he would make a lot of money. He could also sell the weapons and the like to others at low prices.
Players, as long as they don’t lose money
[Game Tips: Unfortunately, you did not win this time...]
[Game tip: Congratulations, you won a piece of level 1 (white) armor)]
…
After these 100 draws, Tong Gua's face turned pale. Except for the highest reward of 30 soul coins, the rest were all a pile of scrap copper and iron, which were not worth a few soul coins at all.
Faced with this situation, Tong Gua was filled with regret. Why didn't he know how to stop when he was ready? This was clearly what the cat behind the scenes had put out to deceive the players, and he himself had fallen into the trap.
But while feeling regretful, Tonggua bought 100 more lottery opportunities.
What he thought this time was that as long as he won once, he would stop drawing and just win back what he just won. He would never be greedy.
In this state of mind, Tonggua once again began the trial of fate.
Ten minutes later, Tonggua felt weak at his feet and fell onto the bed.
How can this rotten turntable be so deceptive!
This time he not only lost all his winning streak, but also lost a lot of money.
But if he stops now, Tong Gua is still unwilling to give in. These are the soul coins he earns by working hard to build equipment every day.
So this time I changed my target, thinking that if I could win back my money, I would never touch this crappy turntable again.
Looking at the remaining 800 soul coins, Tong Gua felt distressed for a while. After thinking about it, he chose a single draw instead of a generous 100 consecutive draws.
About ten minutes later, looking at the remaining 400 soul coins and a pile of broken copper and iron in the warehouse, Tong Gua felt like crying without tears. This was too uncomfortable.
But it’s already like this, what else can you do? Give it a try and either win back your money or lose everything!
So Tonggua started the trial of destiny again.
This time the carousel did not disappoint him, draining all his remaining soul coins, leaving him with nothing.
After the extraction was over, Tongzhao lay on the bed with dull eyes, his heart full of regret, I touched the turntable for nothing, am I a fool?
…
In this lucky wheel, due to the large number of participating players, prompts for the whole area will sound from time to time. Either rare fashions are drawn or customized weapons and other rewards are drawn.
This gives the lottery players the illusion that I am just unlucky. It seems that others have not produced good things. If I continue to draw, I may have a chance. I think that as long as I draw an item that is announced in the whole area, I can make back my money and make more money.
With the idea, the lottery is going on in full swing.
Lu Wu, who was sitting behind the scenes and watching the growing inventory of soul coins, calmly picked up the tea and took a sip.
At this moment, he realized what the mentality of those game planners who offered lottery activities was like, and it felt really good to cheat people out of their money.
Excellent!
…
During the third hour of the lottery, there were complaints, bragging, and a few doubts on the forum.
Xigua Taro: Go to hell, Emperor Ou. I didn’t expect that I would completely enter the status of a non-chief. This is very uncomfortable. I am already a low-level player, but the opportunity for me to rise has not yet appeared (crying)
Fat House Happy Water: I suspect there is something wrong with this crappy lottery. Except for the reward of 300 soul coins I gave out once in the middle, the rest are all crappy stuff. I have lost so much money that I almost doubt my life (Gillfish people doubt my life.jpg)
Crayon Shin-chan replied to Fat House Happy Water: What's the problem? This lottery uses soul coins, not R coins. Whether you lose money or not, I can't make money even if I fight for the company. Is it necessary to cheat you? Silly boy
, accept the reality that you are a non-Chief (funny)
The Strongest Sydney: I just drew a beautiful fashion item, I was very happy, thanks to the lucky wheel, but I didn’t draw it after I won the prize, so I didn’t evaluate the chance (funny)
Although there are some voices of doubt on the forum, the vast majority of players think the same as Crayon Shin-chan, thinking that the lottery is only conducted within the game, and whether they win or fail to win, there is no benefit to competing with the company.
Furthermore, if everyone could win a district-wide announcement-level grand prize, it would seriously affect the balance of the game. It would just be considered an entertainment activity.
After the fifth hour of the lottery, the number of people participating in the lottery began to decrease, and most people began to go to the wild to fight monsters and collect materials for synthesizing glutinous rice balls.
…
At this time, on the Liuli Coast, two figures were sitting on the coast, counting materials against the rising morning glow.
Xiao Mo and Xiao Youzi are different from many players in that they have not participated in the Lucky Spin event at all.
In their view, every penny saved is the foundation for building a happy future, but they are reluctant to spend it on illusory luck.
So when the players were excited about the area-wide announcements that kept appearing, they were already looking for prey in Liuli District. They wanted to gather more materials to synthesize glutinous rice balls, and then synthesize a few more glutinous rice balls.
Such rewards are the safest in their opinion.
After five hours of hard work, they had already obtained a hundred copies of different types of materials. After counting the duplicates, the total number was more than 300.
"It's almost done, let's try the synthesis!" Xiao Youzi looked at Xiao Mo and said with a squinted smile.
"Well, let's follow the official recipe first."
Then Xiao Mo reached out and summoned the synthesis furnace provided by the event, clicked on the glutinous rice dumpling recipe list, and threw in the ingredients according to the official plan.
As the game prompts appear, rice dumplings are baked one by one.
【Black sesame filling (quality 1)】:
Item details: 100 experience points can be obtained after eating
Item details: You can get 300 experience points after eating it, and there is a very small chance of getting 1 random attribute point reward.
…
After synthesizing more than ten portions of glutinous rice balls, Xiaoyuzi said with shining eyes:
"Xiao Mo, why don't we try to mix it ourselves? Maybe we can make delicious glutinous rice balls!"
Looking at Little Youzi who was eager to try, Xiao Mo couldn't help but nodded:
"Then come on, come on!"
Xiao Mo knew that Xiao Youzi had always wanted to learn to cook, but because he was blind, it was simply unrealistic to do this in reality, so seeing the desire in Xiao Youzi's eyes, he decisively agreed.
As for whether the materials will be wasted or not, it doesn't matter. In his opinion, little Yuzi's happiness is the most important thing.
And Little Yuzi didn't know how to combine ingredients to make delicious glutinous rice balls. When she started making it, she just looked at the feeling and threw the ingredients into the synthesis furnace as she saw which ingredients were more delicious, and then waited with anticipation.
They automatically turn into delicious glutinous rice balls.
The first glutinous rice balls came out quickly.
[Ginseng Soy Sauce Rice Balls (Quality: -3)]: Synthesized from ginseng, soy sauce, ginger and other ingredients
Item tip: After eating it, you will get the negative status "poisoned". In this status, you will lose 5 points of blood every second for 10 minutes!
Official reminder: Don’t eat it! Don’t eat it!
Seeing this glutinous rice dumpling, Xiao Mo couldn't help laughing.
The little Yuzi on the side looked embarrassed, so she gritted her teeth and started her second synthesis.
After a while, the second portion of glutinous rice balls came out of the oven.
[Osmanthus, durian and matcha glutinous rice balls (quality -15)]: synthesized from more than ten kinds of ingredients such as osmanthus, durian and so on.
Item Tips: After eating it, you will get the negative state "Poisoned Level 2". In this state, you will lose 15 drops of blood per second and last for 20 minutes.
Official reminder: Warriors, do it!
Looking at Xiao Mo who was suppressing a smile, Xiao Yuzi felt so angry. Didn't he have any talent in cooking?
Unwilling to be reconciled, she started making glutinous rice balls again, secretly vowing to make the most delicious glutinous rice balls.
The consecutive poisonous glutinous rice balls not only failed to defeat Xiao Youzi, but made him become more and more frustrated.
When the eighth portion of glutinous rice balls came out of the oven, a puff of black smoke suddenly came out of the stove, and then the whole area alert sounded.
[Congratulations to the player Xiaoyouzi for successfully making the "Nai He Road Trip" glutinous rice balls, and receiving the Easter egg reward and 100 soul coins! 】
The appearance of the game prompt surprised both of them, and then they quickly looked at the freshly baked glutinous rice balls.
[Nai He Take a Trip on the Road (Quality-100)]: Synthetic materials???
Item Tip: After use, the negative status "Death Spread" will be obtained, and 100 blood points will be deducted every second, lasting for 24 hours.
Official tip: After eating this bowl of poisonous glutinous rice balls and walking on the road, you will definitely still be a good man three hours later
"Pfft~hahaha!" Xiao Mo finally couldn't help it this time and burst into laughter.
Little Youzi, on the other hand, was about to cry. The appearance of the game prompt made him think that he had made some super-high-quality glutinous rice balls, but he never expected that they were more poisonous glutinous rice balls.
Seeing Xiao Mo who was still laughing, the angry Xiao Yuzi immediately pinched herself three times.
Xiao Mo, who felt the pain, turned red and suppressed his laughter. However, the tears in the corners of his eyes were not clear whether they were from laughter or pain.
After looking at the few glutinous rice dumpling ingredients left, Xiao Yuzi finally gave up the urge to continue making it and squatted on the ground in frustration.
At this time, Xiao Mo took out a piece of glutinous rice balls that had been made and handed it over:
"Eat. After eating, let's continue to fight monsters and collect some ingredients. You will definitely be able to make the most delicious glutinous rice balls."
"Really?" Xiaoyouzi raised her head and asked.
"Of course, you are the best in my heart!"
When Little Yuzi heard this, she smiled and took the glutinous rice balls.
With anticipation, the two of them each had a bowl of glutinous rice balls and began to eat, preparing to continue collecting ingredients after eating.
But when the glutinous rice balls came into their mouth, both of them trembled.
Because the two of them ate different flavors, and the tastes were transferred to each other, the glutinous rice balls in their mouths tasted very weird.
After looking at each other, the two laughed.
Sitting on the beach, facing the morning glow, blowing the sea breeze, and eating glutinous rice balls, a sense of happiness spread in the hearts of the two of them.
