Rule 1: Within twenty-four hours, you can only spin the roulette wheel three times. At midnight each day, the usage count will reset to zero.
Rule 2: If you are willing to offer a fragment of a God Stone, you can remove one penalty from the roulette wheel and add one reward.
Note: Since this item is not owned by the holder, you can only spin the roulette wheel once, and you cannot consume God Stone fragments to remove penalties and add rewards.
Loki's Gachapon Machine...
Loki's Lucky Roulette...
Both of these are from the Trickster God series, and the rules are similar. In fact, in his previous life, Bai Ye had the opportunity to obtain Loki's Lucky Roulette.
At that time, after Bai Ye completed the mission, the reward was actually a choice of three.
They were Loki's Gachapon Machine, Loki's Lucky Roulette, and Loki's Dice.
In the end, Bai Ye chose Loki's Gachapon Machine.
However, although the gameplay is similar, the nature of the Gachapon Machine and the Lucky Roulette is still different.
The Gachapon Machine can obtain all sorts of things from the capsules, but the Lucky Roulette is not like that; it provides buffs and debuffs.
The entire roulette wheel has 108 spaces, with 72 reward spaces and 36 penalty spaces. Simply put, there is a two-thirds probability of a reward and a one-third probability of a penalty. Both rewards and penalties are divided into three levels, with level three being the weakest and level one being the strongest.
From a probability standpoint, it's quite worth a gamble, but it's not that simple.
This is because not all buffs are useful. For example, buffs to physical attributes are definitely useful. However, sometimes it will buff abilities. If an ability like the Poison-Poison Fruit receives a buff, that would be great, but what if it's a white-quality ability?
A white-quality ability becomes green quality...
Is that meaningful?
This was also the reason why Bai Ye gave up on the Lucky Roulette in his previous life.
At that time, Bai Ye had no memory of his rebirth, so he didn't have such a clear target for obtaining items and abilities. In the early stages, as long as he could become stronger, Bai Ye would do anything, so he had a large collection of miscellaneous items and abilities. The probability of being screwed over by choosing the Lucky Roulette was too high.
He never expected to see this thing again in this life.
As Bai Ye thought, he reached out and grabbed the roulette wheel, giving it a forceful spin.
Since it wasn't a possessed item, Bai Ye only had one chance to spin the roulette wheel and couldn't use God Stone fragments. There was nothing to think about, so he spun it!
The roulette wheel whirred loudly, speeding up and then slowing down, and soon gradually stopped.
"Randomly upgrade the quality of one of your abilities."
Looking at the stopped roulette wheel, Bai Ye's face lit up with joy.
He only had three abilities: Paper God, Phoenix, and Poison-Poison Fruit.
The best outcome would be the Poison-Poison Fruit, and the worst would be Paper God. Moreover, even if Paper God was upgraded...
Actually, the Paper God ability isn't bad, it's just a bit troublesome to use. Bai Ye didn't have many decks of playing cards left. Secondly, Bai Ye had the Seven-Colored Rainbow Flying Sword, whose combat effect was similar to flying playing cards. It wasn't very necessary to use the Paper God's ability, and the flying sword's power was even greater.
Therefore, the Paper God ability was a bit of a chicken rib, but it occasionally had miraculous effects.
For example, during the Twelve Great Battles.
Then...
"Your Phoenix has been temporarily upgraded to black quality, and you have temporarily gained a new ability: Flame Burst."
Flame Burst: Can detonate phoenix flames at will, causing secondary damage.
Bai Ye was speechless. The one-third probability had gone awry.
However, it didn't go awry for Paper God, but for Phoenix...
It was still passable!
He couldn't say he was satisfied, nor could he say he was dissatisfied.
"I'll make do with it!"
Bai Ye put the item away casually. Although the item was still there, he could no longer spin it again.
Having played with the Gachapon Machine, Bai Ye stretched his limbs. His wounds had healed, but his body was still obviously uncomfortable. After resting for a while longer, he should be able to recover to his normal combat level.
"It's just too boring waiting around," Bai Ye muttered. "Should I write a letter to Jin Sha just for fun?"
Bai Ye casually summoned a white dove from his possessed items.
Carrier Pigeon (Item) (White): Can write letters to a designated target and transmit them using the carrier pigeon.
Rule 1: The target must have been met before.
Rule 2: Regardless of the distance or the number of regions crossed, the transmission speed of the carrier pigeon is 72 hours.
Rule 3: The carrier pigeon can be killed during transmission.
After completing the mission to help the penguin man with the robbery, in addition to the sin value, there was also a three-million-dollar bank card, which could only be spent within the City of Sin. Besides that, there was also a carrier pigeon.
The penguin man was skilled at training birds. Legend had it that all the birds in the City of Sin obeyed him. These birds were equivalent to the penguin man's eyes, keeping watch over everything in the City of Sin for him. Therefore, it wasn't too surprising for Bai Ye to receive a carrier pigeon.
Although it was a white-quality item, communication items were too few. Therefore, the carrier pigeon was definitely a good thing. Although the 72-hour transmission time was a bit of a pain, what more could you ask for from a white-quality item?
The requirement of having met before was also not a problem. Why would he write to someone he hadn't met when he was bored to death?
It was just that the fact that the carrier pigeon could be killed during transmission made Bai Ye very annoyed.
Going to places like the Jura Great Forest wouldn't work because there were many flying monsters that would attack carrier pigeons. Besides, what if he encountered someone with a big appetite who wanted to eat roasted pigeon on the way?
However, since he had obtained this item, he wanted to play with it.
The question was, what should he write?
"Did you eat?"
"A day without you feels like three autumns..."
"Who is the king, who is the king, I eat jelly, Xizhilang..."
Bai Ye sighed and decided not to write a letter. He seemed to have nothing that required him to find Jin Sha.
Suddenly, his stomach rumbled. Bai Ye touched it and then stretched his limbs again. His body seemed to have recovered a lot. Bai Ye then turned around, put away the carrier pigeon, and left the rooftop.
Taking the elevator out of the building, Bai Ye looked around at the brightly lit scene.
The City of Sin during the day was a false City of Sin.
The City of Sin at night was the true City of Sin.
True crimes began with the arrival of night, and furthermore, the City of Sin at night was more of a mockery.
In the tall restaurants, the rich held banquets and balls. The theaters were brightly lit, and people sang and danced every night in the nightclubs.
However, just one street away, in the slums, a girl clutched her bag and walked with a shiver. Ferocious thugs broke into the home of a solitary elderly person, robbed them of everything in their house, and even the beggars on the street were not safe. Even half a piece of bread, if not eaten quickly, would be snatched by others.
After midnight, there was no order in the City of Sin!
This was the City of Sin, a city whose existence was deformed, ironic, and a despicable nightmare.
