The Third Profession

Ling Chu's gaze swept over the second Voodoo Doll of Luck Transfer, and her expression turned cold.

This piece of equipment was truly wicked.

The key point was that this equipment was already bound, and the waiter had said that these were all their captain's private collection, so the binder of the voodoo doll was the captain of Golden Finger Casino?

If she chose this voodoo doll, wouldn't all her luck be sucked dry?

Ling Chu first ruled out that voodoo doll, followed by the Abyssal Fin.

She already had a Necklace Blessed by Mermaid, which allowed her to breathe underwater for two hours. Although this equipment additionally added swimming speed and did not limit underwater breathing time, that curse of gradually losing one's humanity was too concerning; she did not want to turn into a deep-sea monster because of a piece of equipment.

Next, those Crystal Shoes were also passed by Ling Chu. Although the charm value +10 data was defying the heavens, the agility -3 was too fatal. Ling Chu could not imagine what kind of bizarre scene it would be if she wore these crystal shoes to fight monsters; she did not like flashy things without substance.

That left only the piggy bank and that Oath of the Wind Whisperer short bow.

The piggy bank could fixedly obtain 10 sea shells every day, equivalent to a free low-income subsidy. This return was very enticing, but Ling Chu also really wanted that short bow. Compared to the oak longbow she was currently using, it was a world of difference, and it also bound the inheritance of a special profession.

Seeing that Ling Chu was still considering, the waiter strongly recommended: "This doll was crafted by artisans from the East, exquisite and pretty, and it also has the effect of blessing good luck. Would you like to consider it, Miss?"

Hearing this, Ling Chu couldn't help sneering. Blessing good luck, indeed; if she chose this, she would become a bad-luck charm.

It seemed this waiter knew the function of this voodoo doll, so he specially picked someone who drew the special grand prize and sent the doll to suck up luck?

She pointed directly at the first piece of equipment and said, "I choose this short bow."

The waiter couldn't help breaking out in a bit of cold sweat. The captain had specifically instructed that if someone rolled the special grand prize, he was to give priority to recommending the doll, and had said that the bow was kept to anchor the place, telling him to watch it well.

"This bow is a decorative bow, equipped with no arrows, and has no collection value. Would you like to take another look at this fish fin, Miss? This fish fin is said to be from a fourth-order demon, has great collection and commemorative value, and is completely one-of-a-kind!"

"No, I'll just choose that bow. What, with such a big casino of yours, you're not going to renege on a debt, are you?" Ling Chu raised an eyebrow and said.

The waiter was sweating profusely. There were still quite a few guests watching nearby, and the waiter did not dare take on the crime of the casino reneging on debts. After all, the third rule in the rules they themselves formulated was: never attempt to renege on a debt.

"How could that be? I just wanted to give you some suggestions, Miss. This is your prize, please take it..."

In full view of the public, the waiter had no choice but to hand that short bow to her.

[You have obtained the Oath of the Wind Whisperer.]

[This equipment binds the special profession: Wind Chaser Ranger. Do you accept the professional inheritance?]

Of course choose to accept!

[You have become a Wind Chaser Ranger (First Order)]

[You have obtained professional skills: Keen Eye, Storm Arrow.]

Keen Eye: After activating, you will see the enemy's weak points, shooting accuracy +10%, lasting for ten minutes, cooldown half an hour.

Storm Arrow: You can transform magic energy into an arrow filled with the destructive power of a storm. This arrow cannot be recovered, consumes 10 Mana Value.

[Congratulations on being the first player to possess three professions, you obtain a System Blind Box * 1, which will be airdropped to your raft later, please check and receive it.]

Having finished reading the skill descriptions, Ling Chu was pleasantly surprised. She finally had a combat-type profession that could enhance her own strength.

Her Ghost Pirate was currently more like a summoner, mainly used to summon underlings, while the Bounty Hunter profession was mainly used for tracking and getting bounties, bringing no great enhancement to her own strength.

As for this Wind Chaser Ranger, both skills were very practical. Storm Arrow had no cooldown and could be used as long as there was Mana Value, and the Keen Eye skill just happened to make up for her weakness of insufficient shooting accuracy.

The promotion condition for the Wind Chaser Ranger was: under the state of activating Keen Eye, use Storm Arrow 20 times and accurately hit targets. This promotion target was not difficult; it could be said to be the simplest among her three professions.

At the moment of obtaining the new profession, Ling Chu hid this professional information of hers on the rankings right away.

Now everyone knew she was a Ghost Pirate and a Bounty Hunter. This identity of a Wind Chaser Ranger could provide cover for her when necessary, or catch the enemy off guard in future engagements.

"Twice more."

Ling Chu grabbed two more chips from the tray. She wanted to get her hands on that piggy bank as well.

The waiter hurriedly said, "Miss, the same reward on this roulette wheel can only be obtained once, and the special grand prize can also only be obtained once. Are you sure you still want to continue playing?"

Can only be obtained once?

"Then how did the previous guest just now get two special blend drinks?" Ling Chu asked in return.

The waiter: "Only special blend drinks and the dealer's sweet kiss are excluded."

If she were to keep spinning, she would probably lose his job, and he might even be directly thrown into the sea by the captain to feed the fish.

Ling Chu let out a cold snort. This was clearly a rule temporarily added because they didn't want her to continue spinning the wheel. If she pursued it further, she would probably only get a sentence of: "The final interpretation right belongs to this casino."

Ling Chu glanced at the roulette wheel, and there weren't any other good things she wanted left anyway.

Forget it, the advantage she took this time was already big enough.

Ling Chu turned and left, walking toward the gambling table area with her chips. She wanted to exchange all the blue chips in her hand for white chips that could be exchanged for sea shells.

Blackjack, three-card poker, and baccarat were all types of casino games where the luck component occupied a relatively large proportion. Ling Chu was just looking for an empty seat to try her luck when she suddenly heard a faint voice.

"Captain, where is this?"

Why was it Hemlock's voice?

Ling Chu subconsciously looked around her surroundings, but did not see him.

"I'm right here..."

She lowered her head and discovered that the sound source came from the ring on her hand.

Ling Chu breathed a sigh of relief. If a ghost were to appear out of thin air on the ship, it would probably cause chaos.

"When did you possess my ring?" Ling Chu asked in a low voice that only she herself could hear.

"It was last night..."

Hemlock was afraid of the light and often hid in the cabin, but his personality liked to be free and unfettered, and he didn't like always staying in one place. When he possessed an object, he no longer had the restriction of being afraid of the light, so last night he possessed Ling Chu's ring to sleep. Who knew that upon opening his eyes, he would appear here.

"We are on a gambling ship right now, just hide inside and don't let anyone find you," Ling Chu whispered.

"A gambling ship... Could it be the Golden Finger? Heavens, I heard this is the paradise of the rich. In this lifetime, can I still come to a place like this to broaden my horizons?"

Hemlock instantly became excited.

Ling Chu did not correct his misuse of words; this probably didn't count as "in this lifetime" anymore.

At this moment, she happened to see that at the blackjack table, a guest had lost all his chips and dejectedly pushed his cards away to leave his seat. She strode forward and sat right down on that empty seat.
