Zombie tide and card pool, are the system's products just ordinary trash?

"Ahh! There are too many! Too many! We can't kill them all!"

"You idiot dead last, hold your position! Don't move around aimlessly!"

"Obito, Kakashi, keep going! We can do this!"

"Don't worry! Sensei will protect all of you!"

The sounds of flesh tearing, slicing, impacts, and exploding paper bombs intertwined with the howls of the living corpses.

This was the situation Minato's Team was facing.

After advancing for a while and easily killing a few living corpses, they encountered a common feature of zombie-like games: a zombie horde.

This happened when they reached a certain point, either by making a loud noise or encountering a special living corpse that could summon its companions with a cry. Then, a massive wave of living corpses would surge from all directions, accompanied by terrifying howls.

Of course, in the game, it looked like they were coming from all sides, but from a God's-eye view, you'd realize they were just spawning out of thin air.

This phenomenon, with living corpses continuously emerging like a tide and the entire visible area filled with them, was a never-before-seen horror for the Ninja World. Both those battling in the Genjutsu Game and the viewers watching the live broadcast in the real world were profoundly shaken by the unprecedented scene.

Many couldn't even bear to watch, turning their gaze away, their hearts pounding wildly and heads buzzing, demonstrating the shocking impact of the fright.

However, just like most timid people watching horror movies, those too scared to watch couldn't resist secretly peeking. They just watched differently, most commonly by covering their eyes with their hands and peeking at the projected image through the gaps between their fingers.

The main idea was: scared, but still wanting to watch.

Then, several bull-like roars sounded, followed by sharp, piercing screeches, and special mutated monsters appeared with these sounds.

The first to appear were several 'people' over 2.5 meters tall, with one arm very thin and the other extremely thick. Upon appearing, they launched bull-like charges with their thick arms, and the bull-like roars came from them.

These creatures charged like armored vehicles, crushing any living corpses that stood in their way into shattered pieces, showcasing a scene of bloody violence.

Next, the screeching creatures also appeared. Each was grotesquely skinny and small, with terrifying, decaying bodies, resembling monkeys. They leaped through the horde of living corpses, often stepping on the heads or shoulders of other living corpses to use them as springboards to continue their leaps.

These mutated monsters, unlike ordinary living corpses, targeted the four members of Minato's Team, launching a fierce assault on their previously maintained formation.

Seeing this, their four-corner formation couldn't be held. Under Minato Namikaze's command to 'disperse,' the four quickly spread out, dodging the attacks of the bull-charging monsters. However, the unlucky Obito was directly ridden on the head by a later-charging monkey-like mutant, followed by a frenzy of tearing and biting that left Obito screaming in agony.

This was because once the monkey monster rode onto a player's head, it created a 'hard control' effect, rendering the attacked player helpless, forcing them to run uncontrollably or simply collapse on the ground, requiring rescue from others to be freed.

In the crucial moment, Minato Namikaze intervened, precisely throwing a shuriken to blow off the monkey monster's head, then continuously throwing shurikens to knock down the other monkey monsters, finally resolving the ambush.

Afterward, Minato Namikaze, wielding his Katana, and Kakashi began a 'Musou' mode, while instructing the rescued Obito and Nohara Rin to use ranged weapons to contain the bull-charging mutated monsters.

For a time, flesh and blood flew, and blood splattered, directly creating a scene like a meat grinder—quite terrifying and exhilarating.

And in this world with no content filters, the scene was naturally broadcast without any cuts.

Immediately, some people with low psychological tolerance felt extreme nausea and wanted to vomit.

Fortunately, the staff on site had been briefed beforehand. Someone promptly came forward with vomit bags and water to assist those who couldn't handle it.

Thankfully, such people were quite few. Konoha was already a military stronghold, and its residents had more or less seen some bloody and terrifying scenes. Merchants from other places were also well-traveled and experienced, and the Ninja World itself was a brutal place where lives were cheap. So, people's reactions were generally quite good.

What was generated most was Emotion Value, stemming from this unprecedented new experience.

Uchiha Qi looked at the Emotion Value, which had already exceeded 100,000 in a short time, feeling very satisfied. He tentatively spent 10,000 Emotion Value on a ten-pull—the Emotion Value gacha cost 1,000 points per pull, and unlike initial quests, the generated Emotion Value could be used immediately without waiting for settlement.

Instantly, a dazzling crystal appeared in the System panel before Uchiha Qi, which then shattered with a crash.

Then, ten glittering items burst out.

In terms of visual effects, it was quite impressive.

But...

"..." Uchiha Qi's expression instantly shifted from slight anticipation to blank.

Because the items from this ten-pull were truly indescribable.

It wasn't the classic 'thank you for playing' scenario; there were items in every ten-pull. Unfortunately, these items combined into only four types: canned cola, bagged potato chips, chicken leg burgers, and braised beef instant noodles, primarily fat-guy happy meal supplies.

And all of them were unbranded, no-name products.

In the end, Uchiha Qi could only utter a "6" before trying another ten-pull.

This time, two more items appeared: Orleans roasted chicken wings and pickled pepper beef instant noodles.

"..." Uchiha Qi looked at the items automatically stored in his System inventory, then silently took out a can of fat-guy happiness water and drank a mouthful.

Hiss~

It tasted really good, bringing back a sense of joy from Earth. He clearly felt much clearer-headed; even without being chilled, it had a strong refreshing effect.

Honestly, with that one sip, the frustration caused by the scam gacha pool actually subsided a bit. As Uchiha Qi savored the memories, he also carefully examined the Emotion Value gacha pool situation.

Then, in the corner of the System panel, he saw the numbers "20/300." After asking the System, he learned this was a special 'pity' system: after 300 pulls, a blue or higher quality item was guaranteed.

Incidentally, the items Uchiha Qi pulled in both ten-pulls were white quality. The items in the gacha pool had the common five qualities: white, green, blue, purple, and gold.

One could only say that it truly lived up to its name as a game-making system; it had perfectly adopted all the deceptive monetization tactics from those predatory gacha games, specializing in learning only the bad things.

A pity system only after 300 pulls, and the guaranteed item was only blue quality, with anything better purely depending on luck. Given the current situation, the gacha pool was quite a scam, and this Emotion Value gacha system was truly something else.

Compared to this gacha pool, the shop system was more straightforward; it clearly showed good items for sale that could definitely be purchased.

One could only say that this artificial idiot System truly went to great lengths to make its host the ultimate overachiever.

After silently grumbling for a while, Uchiha Qi took another sip of the fat-guy happiness water. The refreshing sensation returned, causing him to pause slightly and subconsciously look at the cola in his hand.

It seems…

This fatty happy water isn't just ordinary fatty happy water after all.

After a moment of thought, Uchiha Qi took out two new cans of cola and called over an Uchiha guard. He instructed the guard to take the cola to the Uzumaki Sisters in another room and relay the message: "While you're tasting it, see if this cola has any special effects."

Although somewhat surprised by Uchiha Qi suddenly producing something he'd never seen before, the Uchiha guard faithfully carried out his mission. He didn't ask any extra questions or overthink it, simply taking the items directly.

Once the guard left, Uchiha Qi turned his attention back to the projection screen in the square. He continued to watch Minato's Team's "performance" while occasionally drawing from the Emotion Value pool. His main approach was to click casually, letting fate decide his prizes.

Meanwhile, his System inventory steadily accumulated a variety of items. His primary goal was to add to his hoarder's collection—after all, the "junk" produced by the System didn't seem to be ordinary trash. Instead, they were items with special effects, making it necessary to stock up and study them carefully later.

Then, after fighting together for a while in the game and adapting to their unrelenting charge, Minato's Team created more fun.
