A moment later, the slot machine started to slow down. The icons slid down one by one at a slower and slower speed. At this moment, he could clearly see the three icons in front of him. They were the Stats Category, Stats Category, and Empty. Based on his past experience, Zhang Ye estimated that the slot machine would stop at one of these three.
Bada.
The first Stats Category icon slid past without stopping.
Zhang Ye's mouth was a little dry. "Stop! That's enough! "
With the speed of a tortoise, the second Stats Category icon did not stop either. Under Zhang Ye's speechless gaze, the slot machine skipped past it and finally stopped at the next icon!
Empty!
He did not get anything!
Zhang Ye looked up at the sky and roared in anger. This was too infuriating. What Special Category? With this new lottery draw system, it's so difficult to even get an item! Did he really have to activate the Lucky Halo? Zhang Ye was feeling a little pained. After all, 10 million Reputation Points had gone down the drain just like that. This was not a small amount. Just like the previous two times when he got "Empty," Zhang Ye's original intention was to save some of the Reputation Points that the Lucky Halo generated. But in the end, not only did he not save any Reputation Points, he even wasted them. If he had known earlier, he would have just activated the Lucky Halo. Even though he had to spend more Reputation Points, he could at least guarantee that he would get a treasure chest.
I played left!
But I don't believe it!
Zhang Ye's temper flared up. This fellow was competing with himself, so he refused to activate the Lucky Halo. He wanted to see if he could not even get a single prize!
Again!
Zhang Ye spent another 10 million Reputation Points and clicked on the lottery draw angrily!
The slot machine began to spin!
It spun and spun!
Ring and ring!
This time, Zhang Ye did not even bother looking at it. He turned his head around and lit a cigarette. He even took out his cell phone and fiddled with it a few times. The virtual screen kept moving along with the ring on his pinky finger, but Zhang Ye refused to look at it. Finally, he heard a ding. The results of the lottery draw were out. Only then did Zhang Ye hurriedly look over. When he saw the results, he immediately laughed. He had finally gotten a prize this time. The slot machine had stopped at the Consumption Category icon!
A Treasure Chest (Medium) appeared!
Zhang Ye lowered his head and opened the lid of the medium Treasure Chest. A blinding light flashed, and when the light faded, a white card appeared inside the chest. It was floating in mid-air and constantly spinning. The edges of the card even had some flowing mercury patterns. It was quite beautiful.
I put away the item, and a notification appeared.
[Specified Category Lottery Card (White)] 1: After use, you can specify the specific category of the lottery item. It is limited to the Consumption Category, Attribute Category, and Skill Category. Special Category is not included.
Designated category?
That meant that after using the card, other than being unable to specify the special category, he could draw whatever category he wanted?
This item should be pretty good. After studying it for a long time, Zhang Ye felt that it was worth it. Although it might seem like the 10 million Reputation Points Lucky Draw Card was not really worth it and did not seem to have much use, but if you thought about it carefully … Well, it was still not that useful!
What kind of rubbish is this?
Does the price-performance ratio have to be so low!
Although this card's Designated Category could prevent him from drawing an empty chest during the lottery draw, which meant that he had a 100% chance of drawing a prize, it still wasn't worth much. If he didn't have the Lucky Halo, it would still be fine. But now that Zhang Ye had the upgraded version of the Lucky Halo, it was naturally not that valuable to him. The effects that this card could achieve could be achieved by the Lucky Halo as well. In fact, it would even cost him less Reputation Points. It wasn't like a lottery draw where a card cost 10 million Reputation Points. The only advantage of this card was that it could be used to specify an item's category. If he wanted the Attribute Category, he could choose the Attribute Category. If he wanted the Skill Category, he could choose the Skill Category. But then again, Zhang Ye usually did not have a target in mind when he played the lottery draw, nor was he a picky eater. It didn't matter what category he drew as long as it was useful. Therefore, with the prerequisite of the card excluding the Special Category, this item was not that useful to Zhang Ye at all. The price-performance ratio was too low.
I'm really unlucky today!
No way, I don't believe it!
He had spent so many Reputation Points, yet he had gained so little in return. Of course, Zhang Ye was not satisfied with it and wanted to try again. But this time, Zhang Ye did not dare to be careless. He was already prepared to activate the Lucky Halo this time. He needed to ensure the success rate and the quality of the lottery draw items. Otherwise, he would be letting down all the hard work he had put into producing The Voice. All of these Reputation Points were earned through blood and tears!
He went to the bathroom to wash his face and hands before returning to his room. He sat down on his bed and opened up his inventory. He used the "Designated Category Lottery Draw Card (White)" that he had just won!
[Do you want to use it?]
Zhang Ye pressed "Yes"!
[Please select the Designated Category and Lottery Draw item.]
Zhang Ye first selected Lottery Draw (Two). After hesitating for a moment, he finally chose the Designated Category for the Consumption Category.
[Confirm?]
Zhang Ye pressed "Confirm".
The next moment, the card took effect. The white card turned into a burst of light and shattered. The scattered dots of light arced through the air and jumped into the Lottery Draw (Two) interface. At the same time, the Lottery Draw interface automatically opened up. Zhang Ye was not in a hurry to start the Lottery Draw. Instead, he went back to the Merchant Shop's interface and took a deep breath. Then, he reached out his finger and tapped on the Lucky Halo (Upgraded) to activate it. In an instant, a large halo of the Lucky Halo appeared on top of his head, constantly radiating its afterglow. It looked really awesome!
-100000!
-100000!
The Lucky Halo began to deduct his Reputation Points. It was dropping by hundreds of thousands!
Zhang Ye could not be bothered to admire his heroic appearance at this moment. He knew that every second counted for money, so he hurriedly went back to the Lottery Draw (Two) interface.
Eh?
This is?
After Zhang Ye opened it, he suddenly noticed a detail that he had not noticed before. In the bottom-right corner of the slot machine, there was something that looked like a lever. It was different from the wrench that he had used in the Lottery Draw earlier. This wrench was much smaller, and there were quite a few patterns and colors on the slot machine. If one did not look carefully, they would have missed it. Clearly, this small lever had been there all along, but Zhang Ye had not noticed it before.
What did it mean?
Give it a try!
Zhang Ye tried putting his hand over it and pressed on the small lever. He slid it up a little and pushed it up. As a result, a prompt appeared!
[Additional Stakes]
[Total Additional Stakes: 1]
Zhang Ye blinked and pulled the lever down.
[Reduced Stakes]
[Total Additional Stakes: 0]
Zhang Ye immediately understood that this was the Additional Stakes lever. Just like in Lottery Draw (One), there was also a similar Additional Stakes button. It was just that the icon and settings were different, but the effects were more or less the same. So it turned out that Lottery Draw (Two) also had a Additional Stakes function. Zhang Ye had also activated the Lucky Halo and the Designated Lottery Draw Card, so he had invested a lot into this. Naturally, it would be a waste if he only drew one!
Add!
Zhang Ye knew that time waited for no man, so he decisively clicked on the Additional Stakes button!
It wasn't until he had spent 100 million Reputation Points and had raised the stakes to 10 times that Zhang Ye finally clicked on the Lottery Draw button and pulled the lever to activate the slot machine!
The icons began to slide down rapidly, one after another!
All of the icons, without exception, only had one image!
Consumption Category!
Consumption Category!
Consumption Category!
From start to finish, it was all the same. Every icon was of the Consumption Category. They all looked the same, but in fact, there should be some differences. This was because the corresponding Treasure Chest item behind each Consumption Category icon was likely to be different. It was just that he could not tell from the outside, so Zhang Ye did not know which one was good or bad.
Ten seconds …
Half a minute …
Slowly, the results came out!
He saw that the final icon of the slot machine had stopped at one of the Consumption Category icons!
Zhang Ye tapped on it and ten Treasure Chests (Medium) of the same size and size appeared in the blink of an eye!
However, what surprised Zhang Ye was that the items that appeared from the Treasure Chests were actually the same as the previous items. This was something that had never happened in all his lottery draws!
[Designated Lottery Draw Card (White)] 10
It was this crappy thing again?
It was ten cards this time?
It cost this bro a hundred million Reputation Points?
Zhang Ye was on the verge of breaking down. He had even activated the Lucky Halo. Did it have to be this bad? What the fuck do I need so many Designated Lottery Draw Cards for!
But just as Zhang Ye was about to smash something and curse, the cards suddenly changed. The ten Designated Lottery Draw Cards started flashing and a string of text appeared without warning.
[Ten Lottery Draw Cards have been collected.]
[Do you want to merge?]
[Yes — No]
Zhang Ye was taken aback and subconsciously tapped "Yes."
The ten White Lottery Draw Cards instantly disintegrated and turned into tiny dots of light that scattered in the air. After a few moments, they suddenly started to condense and finally merged into a single black card!
Zhang Ye reached out in surprise and grabbed it.
[Designated Lottery Draw Card (Black)]: After use, you can specify all the categories of the lottery draw items!
All?
All categories?
Does that mean that the Special Category is included as well?
Zhang Ye cursed and then laughed out loud. This was a complete turnaround. From despair to hope, this was too exciting!
100 million Reputation Points for an upgraded Special Category Merchant Shop?
Was it worth it?
Of course it was worth it!
And it was definitely worth it!
Only then did Zhang Ye remember that his Lucky Halo was still active. With every passing second, it was depleting 100,000 Reputation Points. He immediately perked up and without any hesitation, he used the black card. This time, he did not place any Additional Stakes because the Special Category was not an item, but a purchase right from the Merchant Shop. Even if he placed 100 Additional Stakes, the final purchase right would still be the same, so it would be a waste!
10 million Reputation Points were spent in an instant!
Lottery Draw (Two) began!
Seeing the icons on the slot machine flash by quickly, the visual impact was quite shocking to Zhang Ye. There was no other reason than that all of the icons on the slot machine were the same thing!
— Special Category!
They were all in the Special Category!
It was so densely packed that it made one excited just looking at it!
This bro has spent almost all of his Reputation Points this time, so please give me a good one!
