Hotel

Hotel

Luo Jun did not know how long had passed before he woke up.

What met his eyes was a snow-white ceiling and a dimly lit room.

"Where is this?" Luo Jun lay on a large bed, snow-white bedding beneath him.

He sat up and looked around. Bedside lamps were installed on either side, a television hung on the wall opposite the bed, and two bottles of mineral water sat beside the TV cabinet, their caps still tagged "Hotel Supply."

This was... a hotel guest room? How did I get here?

Luo Jun drew a deep breath. He still felt somewhat unwell, a sensation he could not quite put into words. It was not exactly cold, yet he vaguely felt a chill shrouding his body, trying to burrow inside...

Confused, Luo Jun rubbed his head and recalled what had just happened. He should have been at the mall when he suddenly encountered Human Traffickers kidnapping a child, and then...

Luo Jun abruptly sat upright. "I ran into a group of inhuman lunatics, and in the end, I was sucked into a Black Hole!"

Thinking of this, Luo Jun hurriedly summoned the Dice of Heavenly Secrets and checked the message log.

After pushing the child out, he had used the Dice of Heavenly Secrets one last time. His goal had been to survive!

It seemed to have succeeded!

Luo Jun activated the system and checked the message log.

"Event 'Survive,' Event Difficulty: 38. Final Points: 55. Event Success!"

"Severity Coefficient: 12x. Final experience gained: 456 points."

"Mission 'Rescue the Child' completed!"

"Mission Difficulty: 75 points. Severity Coefficient: 4x."

"Final reward: 300 chips."

"Calculating mission experience..."

"Dice used six times during the mission. Total experience gained: 1,714 points."

"Congratulations, you have Upgraded!"

"You may draw Attribute Points!"

"Congratulations on reaching Level 5. You may draw one skill."

The string of notifications left Luo Jun somewhat dizzy. He Did Not Expect that surviving and rescuing the child at the end would give him over two thousand experience points, raising him another four levels in one go!

Along with that came more information about the Dice of Heavenly Secrets.

It turned out that leveling up not only increased attributes, but could also grant skills. Aside from All Things are Dice, which was guaranteed at Level 1, he could randomly draw one skill at every multiple of five—Level 5, Level 10, Level 15, and so on.

"Because the user lost consciousness, there are still unclaimed rewards. Claim them now?"

Luo Jun chose to claim them, immediately entering the Dice of Heavenly Secrets' slowed-time state.

He now had four levels' worth of attributes and one skill waiting to be drawn. After thinking it over, Luo Jun drew the skill first.

According to the information, skills were related to the Dice of Heavenly Secrets System. Obtaining a skill first should benefit the subsequent draws.

"Ding! Congratulations, you have obtained the skill: Beginner Point Correction."

"Beginner Point Correction: When using the Dice of Heavenly Secrets, you may choose to positively or negatively correct the roll result, up to a maximum of five points!"

This skill made Luo Jun's eyes light up.

Put plainly, the skill could increase or decrease the final roll result. In other words, whenever Luo Jun needed it, every future event check could gain up to five additional points!

If the average roll was normally 50 points, then Luo Jun's average would be 55 points!

Combined with his Level 6 Luck Level, which had a potentially positive influence on dice results, it could be said that from now on, As Long As he could use the Dice of Heavenly Secrets, his event success rate would increase to some degree!

One or two rolls might not show much, but over time, it could have an enormous impact on his life... No, he did not need to look that far ahead. The effect was already immediate, right In Front Of him!

Luo Jun suddenly thought of a crucial question!

For ordinary events, the Dice of Heavenly Secrets had a maximum roll of 100 points. But when drawing attributes upon leveling up, the maximum roll was only 10 points!

Would it add five points there too?

His attributes had not been drawn yet. This was the perfect chance to test it!

As the White Dice stopped spinning, it displayed a 3.

The instant the result appeared, Luo Jun received a prompt asking whether he wanted to use the skill.

It could be used!

In the end, Luo Jun received 3 + 5 = 8 Attribute Points!

Overjoyed, Luo Jun drew three more times in succession, obtaining 12, 9, and 11 Attribute Points respectively!

After automatic allocation, Luo Jun's panel was as follows!

Name: Luo Jun

Level: 8 (101/900)

Strength: 26 points

Agility: 21 points

Perception: 22 points

Spirit: 23 points

Luck Level: 6

Skills: All Things are Dice, Beginner Point Correction

Items: None

Chips: 300

Usable Times: 5/5

After drawing his attributes and skill, Luo Jun turned his attention to the newly acquired chips.

These were his reward for completing the mission. The Mission Difficulty was 75, and with a Severity Coefficient of four times, that came to exactly 300 chips. It seemed the mission itself did not reward experience, instead paying out in the form of chips.

What were these for?

With a thought from Luo Jun, new information surfaced In Mind.

Chips were the currency of the Dice of Heavenly Secrets System. Their main use was to exchange for item rewards.

However, there was no reward list for Luo Jun to choose from. Everything in the Dice of Heavenly Secrets System seemed tied to luck, and even exchanging for rewards took the form of a lottery.

Below the chip system were four buttons marked with lucky bags, each with an exchange cost beneath it: 300 chips, 500 chips, 1,000 chips, and 3,000 chips.

According to the description, these four kinds of lucky bags could randomly yield special items. The more valuable the lucky bag, the greater the chance of drawing high-tier items.

With Luo Jun's current 300 chips, he could only draw the cheapest lucky bag.

Should he save up for a higher-tier item later? Or should he exchange for a Small Lucky Bag first and see how it went?

After thinking it over, Luo Jun clicked the smallest lucky bag.

He had only obtained the system less than half a day ago. There was no need to plan so far ahead; figuring out the details of its rules came first.

With his selection, all 300 chips instantly vanished. The lucky bag icon began to shine, and amid a flash of Green Light, it finally transformed into a small red die.

Luo Jun focused his attention on the die, and its attributes quickly appeared before his eyes:

Name: Lead-Weighted Dice

Grade: Fine (Green)

Effect: Consumable. If dissatisfied with the current roll result, you may use this item to reroll. The reroll gains a 30-point difficulty correction.

Usable Times: 1/1

Note: This one doesn't count. There's something wrong with your dice—try mine!

This effect made Luo Jun's eyes light up!

Put simply, it let him reroll once after failing, and the reroll's success rate would be greatly increased!

This was a good thing. Although it was consumable, its effect was extremely powerful!

The only fly in the ointment was that the reroll granted a difficulty correction rather than a Point Correction.

Put plainly, it lowered the difficulty instead of increasing the points. If it had been a Point Correction, he could have saved it for his next level-up and gotten thirty Attribute Points for free in one stroke!

As he obtained his first item, more knowledge about items appeared In Mind.

Items provided by the system were divided into six grades, each emitting a different glow when generated.

From lowest to highest, they were: Common (White), Fine (Green), Rare (Blue), Epic (Purple), Legendary (Gold), and Myth (Dark Gold).

The beginner lucky bag worth 300 chips could only produce Common, Fine, and Rare items. Common items had the highest probability, while Rare items had the lowest. Luo Jun drew a Fine item on his first try—his luck was not bad!

Once all the rewards had been claimed, Luo Jun finally exited the Dice of Heavenly Secrets' slowed-time effect.

With a swift carp leap, he flipped off the bed. Feeling the exhilaration brought by his increased attributes, Luo Jun swept his gaze across the unfamiliar room.

Next, it was time to investigate his situation.

Clearly, he had been drawn into some mysterious incident. But with the Dice of Heavenly Secrets, he already had some psychological tolerance for this kind of Supernatural Power and was not too panicked.

It Looks Like an ordinary hotel guest room. Luo Jun had stayed in hotels before when traveling with his class, and the furnishings were more or less the same. The only difference was that back then he had shared a standard twin room with classmates, while this room had a large bed.

The crucial question was: where was this hotel?

Should he go out and ask? Judging from the label on the mineral water, he was still in the country, so he should be able to communicate.

Luo Jun walked to the door. Just as he was about to open it, he suddenly saw a note pasted onto it.
