Chapter 339: 335: No Miracle in Single Draw; Ten Consecutive Draws Ruin a Lifetime



Looking at the once again damaged Space Barrier Device, Bai Qi sighed helplessly.

“Indeed, it’s difficult to try to deduce with a machine without any data related to it.”

After constant simulations by the Jiuding System, Bai Qi finally built the first Space Barrier Device, its exterior and interior structure almost identical to the broken one from the Nile City Association, yet no matter what, he couldn’t turn it on.

“Let it be, I’ll go and try to see if Professor Chu can give me some information related to Space Technology, even a little would be fine.”

Bai Qi put down his data in his hands and said, “Yu, this is hard for you, do another simulation.”

“Grandfather rest assured, Yu will do his best.”

A smiling face flashed on the huge brain screen, then several machines came from the side, disassembled the Space Barrier Device, analysed, and modified it…

As a research-based mechanical creature, this kind of analysis process was very beneficial for its growth, so Yu and the Jiuding System naturally enjoyed it.

Looking at the increasingly orderly Secret Realm Base under the management of Yu and the Jiuding System, Bai Qi was very satisfied.

He feared that this base was now no worse than an ordinary gym, but he regretted that he couldn’t stay here all the time, otherwise life would definitely be comfortable.

Even if he stumbled upon better realms in the future, he would not easily give up on this one.

With a flicker of light, Bai Qi appeared in the Bai Villa, seeing Bai Qiucha, who was meditating on the top of the dragon’s head outside the window, he strode out.

The talent of a Soul Communicator not only allowed Bai Qiucha to contract Emperor-level creatures beyond his level, but also had the ability to meditate synchronously with the Bone Dragon. This ability greatly accelerated the speed of Bai Qiucha’s Spirit Power enhancement.

From Bai Qi’s point of view, this was akin to a game cheat provided by the official, enabling Bai Qiucha to unlock the power of a Soul Communicator at a faster rate.

Bai Qi was certain that Bai Qiucha would not only be the youngest Fourth Stage, Fifth Stage Beast Master, but might also become the youngest Six Stage Beast Trainer or even a Mythical one.

“Bai Qi, why did you come out so early today?”

Bai Qiucha noticed Bai Qi’s arrival, immediately stopped meditating, and jumped down from the dragon’s body.

“The research doesn’t need me right now, so I came out for a break.”

Bai Qi shrugged, whether it was Spirit-Control Orb, the Rune Mechanical Armour, or even Biological Evolution, almost everything has been handed over to a few pet creatures and Jiuding System for research. Other than occasionally monitoring progress and conjuring something for his pets, Bai Qi practically had nothing to do.

“No wonder.”

Bai Qiucha understood and said, “Oh yeah, dad just called, he said he will be back tomorrow, and he asked you to wait for him here.”

“Okay.”

Bai Qi nodded his head and, seeing the Lightning Rat, who has fallen asleep on the dragon’s back due to boredom, asked, “What about the Lightning Rat lately? Has it shown any rejection to the Rune Mechanical Armour?”

“Don’t worry, there was the Evolution Light as the intermediary, and the Lightning Rat merged perfectly with the mechanical armour. There is no rejection.”

Bai Qiucha suggested, “By the way, it seems that Elf House is holding an event today. It’s said to be related to Spirit-control Orb and Rune Mechanical Armour. How about we go take a look?”

“Hosting an event?”

Bai Qi was startled when he heard her and suddenly became interested.

The two readily agreed and rode the Bone Dragon towards the Elf House.

Because of a certain someone’s influence, the Elf House had been expanded several times and now occupied a vast spatial scale.

The selling area, the pet breeding area, the spirit feeding area, the gym… It had already formed an independent business district.

And today, a large number of beast masters and spirit controllers had gathered here, and their target was the largest sell point in this business district.

Wuhou Mall.

“This scale is almost on par with Jiuding Mall.”

Bai Qi was astonished by the towering building before him.

The last time he was here, it was only a foundation. Could it be that in just over a month, it has already been completed?

“So today is the Grand Opening of Wuhou Mall. No wonder there are so many people here.”

Bai Qi looked around and saw the holographic captions slowly moving above Wuhou Mall. He finally understood.

Having all sorts of promotions on the opening day is surely part of every mall’s activities. It’s very normal.

“Speaking of which, I seem to have received a message from Zhuge Chen before.”

Seeing this, Bai Qi suddenly remembered something, and after searching through his cellphone for a while, sure enough, he found Zhuge Chen’s invitation among a heap of spam messages.

“Che, it seems that I will have to let Schuck manage my phone from now on, else I feel like I’m going to get clobbered someday.”

Bai Qi put away his phone, then he and Bai Qiucha followed the crowded crowd towards Wuhou Mall.

Compared to the crowded scene outside, it was rather orderly inside the mall, the variety of products attracting different groups of people to shop.

“So many types, it seems that the Zhuge family has been preparing for a long time.”

Bai Qi wandered around the mall for a while and was amazed by the mall’s complete range.

From pet training resources to pet utensils, everything you could think of was available here. It was truly a departmental store.

“Damn, why is it a white card again!”

A frustrated voice attracted Bai Qi’s attention. He looked and saw a large shop was crowded with people while more were rushing over.

“It appears to be a joint sale point for Spirit-control Orbs and Rune Mechanical Armours.”

Bai Qiucha unfolded her Bone Wings and flew up to a higher point. Seeing the event going on inside, she had a puzzled look on her face.

“It seems they’re drawing cards?”

“Card-drawing?”

Bai Qi’s eyes twitched as certain unpleasant memories surged up, but his intense curiosity prompted him to wade through the crowded shop front.

Just as Bai Qiucha had mentioned, they were indeed drawing cards, and it was a ten-card drawing at once.

What they drew, however, were not heroes, but combo cards of Rune Mechanical Armors.

As soon as enough fragments were collected, the Wuhou Corporation would custom-make a piece of Rune Mechanical Armor for your pet beast at the corresponding level for free; if one was lucky, they could draw a complete Armor.

Those with less luck would get a guaranteed Armor after drawing a certain number of times, though the attributes of the Armor would be generally average.

“Who the hell came up with this audacious scheme?”

Bai Qi sighed, watching the men and women whose faces turned red from the excitement.

Drawing one card might not yield miracles, but drawing ten could ruin your life. Boy, never fall into the trap of card-drawing~

Sadly, these people were never privy to the insights that Bai Qi had learned the hard way: they were completely enthralled by the exhilarating sensation of card-drawing.

“Blue rare~”

Accompanied by an annoying voiceover, a man couldn’t stand it anymore and pounded his fist on the card-drawing table, ready to add more funds.

“Based on system detection, you have reached the reasonable spending limit set by the system today. Please stop impulsive spending.”

The system warning message brought the man’s enthusiasm down a notch, but he could not help but feel a sense of resentment as he thought about his previous unfortunate experiences.

“That’s not how you play this.”

Just then, a clothed-in-an-expensive-fur-cloak young man walked forward, flanked by his entourage, and judiciously pushed the man aside.

“What can you get from drawing ten cards at once? If you want to draw, draw a hundred at once!”

With a proud air, the wealthy young man logged into his account, and without checking, he tapped on the ‘roll ten’ button ten times consecutively. A flurry of cards fluttered in the air above the machine.

“23333, looks like a big spender showed up, we can’t compete with that.”

Bai Qi stuck out his tongue at this, while others around him looked on enviously.

The card-drawing system of the Wuhou Corporation was custom-made, requiring individual registrations. New users had the chance to draw ten cards for free. Subsequent draws, however, required them to pay for themselves. This system was directly connected to a financial transaction network to avoid reckless spending by users. If there was any consumption beyond the user’s means, the card-drawing would be forcefully interrupted.

This restriction was virtually non-existent for certain wealthy players.

The affluent young man, knowing what was at play, silently watched as the cards before him turned over, prepared for the amazed exclamations.

“White Common…”

“White Common…”

“White Common…”

“Blue Rare…”

“White Common…”

“…”

A full set of White Common cards turned up with a few Blue Rares. The annoyingly rapid voiceovers hitting the affluent young man one after another like slaps to the face.

Well, who would’ve thought that behind the facade of the big spender hid such misfortune? It was a pity that Feng Ye was not present. These two men surely would have shared a common language.

Having seen that not even a single Purple Epic appeared after all one hundred cards had been drawn, the wealthy young man’s face grew darker. However, noticing the strange looks from the crowd around him, the young man quickly gathered his composure and feigned indifference.

“Just as I thought, even after drawing a hundred cards consecutively, not a single Epic showed up. After this pile of cards, the next one has to be a Gold Legend!”

With that, the young man pushed the ‘roll one’ button as hard as he could. A large card emerged before them, its sophisticated back already shimmering with gold.

“White Common…”

The space fell into a deathly silence, and the heavy breathing of the young man could be heard clearly.

“How is this possible? Isn’t there supposed to be a guaranteed win?”

The young man found his voice, raspy and strained. Finally, following the indications of his companions, he noticed the note at the right bottom corner that read “no guarantee.”

“No guarantee, huh? Very well then, it doesn’t matter. I’m not short on funds.”

Having said that, he punched the roll-ten button relentlessly and at a pace so fast that Bai Qi could see afterimages of his hand.

However, it was too bad that after drawing hundreds of cards, the young man only had three Purple Epics to his name, and they were even fragments from different sets.

“Swindlers, definitely swindlers. I’m going to file a complaint!”

The young man finally realized the rashness of his actions. After yet another fruitless round of ten-card-draw, he slammed a kick into the card-drawing machine and decided to take his leave.

“What is this? It looks fun. Gao Cheng, do you want to give it a try?”

Right then, Han Wei and Gao Cheng pushed their way through the crowd. Looking at the now unoccupied card-drawing machine, Han Wei pushed Gao Cheng onto the vacant spot, suggesting, “No one’s here right now. Go ahead and give it a shot.”

Gao Cheng gave a bitter smile, “I’m not a big fan of gambling games. Let’s pass it.”

“This isn’t gambling, it’s all monitored by the financial network. There’s nothing to worry about. Besides, haven’t you always wanted a custom-made Armor for your pet beast? Don’t waste this good opportunity.”

Han Wei tried to persuade Gao Cheng, which made him waver. The young man earlier, who had planned to leave, also stopped at the sound of their conversation. “This machine hardly ever gives good cards. Just give it up. I’m going to file a complaint.”

“Really…?”

Gao Cheng hesitated for a moment and then decided, “Let’s give it one shot.”

And so, Gao Cheng lightly pressed the button in front of him. A large card appeared before everyone again and slowly flipped around.

“Wow! A Gold Legend!”
