The Lottery House

She opened the Lottery House.

Inside, a transparent little rabbit smiled, holding a Colorful Giant Sphere in its right paw.

Above the rabbit were the prize tiers: Sixth Prize (white), Fifth Prize (green), Fourth Prize (blue), Third Prize (purple), Second Prize (gold), First Prize (orange), and Special Prize (red)...

Remaining Raffle Tickets: 67

Single draw: 67/1 (Available)

Ten draws: 67/10 (Available)

Ji Xinghe dusted off her hands, then tapped the ten-draw option.

The moment her fingertip touched it, the colorful sphere in the rabbit's paw gave a low hum and began spinning rapidly.

Click, click, click...

Then, one by one, balls of different colors rolled into the tray in the rabbit's left paw.

White, white, green, purple, gold, blue, white, white, green, orange!

When she saw the orange ball, Ji Xinghe raised an eyebrow. As expected, ten draws made it easier to win a big prize.

The four white balls were: Wood ×100, Wood ×100, Stone ×100, Fishing Line ×10

Two green: Axe (Tree-chopping efficiency +10%), Pickaxe (Mining efficiency +10%)

One blue: Spirit Recovery Potion (Small) ×2: Restores 50 Spirit

One purple: Wow Coins ×100

One gold: Rosewood Bed: Prosperity +10. When a player or pet rested on the bed, they recovered 5 Spirit and 10 Health per hour.

Seeing her good luck, Ji Xinghe went for another ten-draw.

Hum...

Click, click, click...

Ten balls clattered into the tray.

White, orange, green, purple, orange, purple, purple, blue, white, white.

The three white balls: Wood ×100, Foundation Stone ×20, Black Earth ×5

One green: Nutrient Solution (Bottle) ×3: Speeds up plant growth (each plant can only be watered with one bottle per day).

One blue: Refrigerator (double-door, 350 L): Can chill and freeze.

Three purple: No Attribute Spirit Stone ×1: Has a wide range of uses,

Strength Ring ×1: Strength +3, Mana Recovery Necklace ×1: Restores 1 Spirit per minute

Two orange: Island Scroll ×2, Third Rank Bloodthirst Vine (Plant Pet) ×1

Remaining Raffle Tickets: 47

One had to know when to stop. After winning three first prizes, Ji Xinghe was already satisfied.

She would save the remaining Lottery Tickets until after the beginner period, when disasters struck. After all, the Lottery House's prizes changed with each disaster period.

She put on the Strength Ring and Mana Recovery Necklace she'd just won.

As for the Spirit Recovery Potions, she would save them for exploring islands or emergencies.

As long as she didn't do anything reckless during the beginner period, her life wouldn't be in danger.

She placed the refrigerator beside the kitchen, next to the Water Purifier. A small slot for Spirit Stones sat in the refrigerator's upper-right corner.

It only worked with Ice Spirit Stones and No Attribute Spirit Stones.

With a No Attribute Spirit Stone inside, it would run for three months.

Then Ji Xinghe put the water she'd just purified in the freezer.

On a hot day, nothing beat a glass of ice water.

There was also a watermelon in her backpack, so she put that in the refrigerator's crisper.

Then she walked over to the wooden bed, dismantled it, and replaced it with the Rosewood Bed.

The two-meter-by-two-meter-twenty bed made the room feel a little cramped, but Ji Xinghe didn't mind.

A room packed full of things made her feel safe!

She took out the two Island Scrolls.

"Xixi Island Scroll: Exploration time: 24 hours. Click to teleport to the island. You will automatically return when the exploration time ends. Time until expiration: 60 days."

"Orchard Island Scroll: Exploration time: 12 hours. Click to teleport to the island. You will automatically return when the exploration time ends. Time until expiration: 30 days."

Based on her experience from her previous life, the longer an island's exploration time, the more dangerous it was.

Both scrolls she had now allowed for quite a long time, so she would need to prepare thoroughly before going.

She put the scrolls back in her backpack.

Ji Xinghe stepped out of the Shelter and went to the planting area, where she placed the five pieces of Black Earth she'd just won.

She left a one-meter-wide path between them so she could water and fertilize the plants.

She'd also won a pet. "A plant pet shouldn't... eat meat, right?"

Even as she said it, Ji Xinghe wasn't sure.

She held the Bloodthirst Vine in her palm and opened its details panel.

"Third Rank Bloodthirst Vine (Plant Pet)" (Panel can be hidden)

"Owner: Ji Xinghe (Player 001)"

"Level: 0 (0/100)"

"Attack: 30"

"Defense: 30"

"Skill: Devour (Can consume any flesh and blood as nourishment)"

"Status: Naive, hungry"

Ji Xinghe: "..."

Perhaps sensing her hesitation and unease, the green vine, which was shorter than her palm, gently curled around Ji Xinghe's finger.

A soft, clear girl's voice sounded in her mind: "Master..."

So well-behaved.

Standing beside the Black Earth, Ji Xinghe sighed and gently stroked its vine.

Its starting Attribute Values were three times higher than those of her previous pet. She couldn't quite bring herself to sell it.

"Fine, it can eat."

In this life, she was healthy, and fighting monsters would be easier, too.

There were still two corpses in her backpack, and dozens of pieces in the Storage Box...

She'd raise it. Once it grew up, it could work.

But since it was a plant, shouldn't it be planted in the ground, too?

"Xiao Shi, Xiao Xi? I'll call you Xiao Xi. Do you need to put down roots in the soil?"

The Bloodthirst Vine nodded like a person. "X...iao Xi."

Looking at Xiao Xi, Ji Xinghe figured it needed soil, so she planted it in the Black Earth.

She also gave it a bottle of Nutrient Solution.

In an instant, Xiao Xi gained one Experience Point.

Then she took out the twenty pieces of Dan Hong Fish Meat from the Storage Box.

She fed them to it one piece at a time. Only after it had eaten the tenth piece did its status change.

"Level: 0 (2/100)"

"Status: Naive, happy, full"

It ate ten pounds in one sitting!

Ten pounds of meat for one Experience Point—not a bad deal!
