Luck E and Cash Power

Wen Nan was also stunned.

He had already used a Sleep Capsule and a Nutrient Supplement, ready to go all out, yet he had hit a golden treasure chest on his very first try?

Could his luck really be this insane?

"Quick!"

"Open it and see!"

"What kind of treasure is it?"

The three people behind him began to urge him on, their eager expressions making them seem even more excited than Wen Nan, the one who had actually won the prize.

Wen Nan suppressed the flutter in his heart, maintaining a calm and indifferent facade on the surface as he snapped his fingers, issuing the command to open the chest within his mind.

The golden treasure chest bounced twice in the air, then, with a click, the latch fell away and the lid swung open.

A palm-sized cloth bag lay quietly inside.

Wen Nan's expression darkened, a vague sense of foreboding washing over him. He untied the bag, only to see it stuffed with... gold coins?!

[Congratulations! You have drawn a "White" tier prize--Money Bag!]

[Contents of Money Bag: 51 gold coins.]

[Accept?]

[Accept] [Decline] [Resell]

Wen Nan: ...

Any prize could be resold directly back to the prize pool for 50 gold coins, so how was this bag of coins any different from a "Thanks for playing" message?!

Why did this godforsaken UI design make the treasure chest for a "White" tier prize look so dazzlingly golden?

The other three people saw the result and laughed sheepishly.

Shao Ling: "Why would they even bother putting a white tier prize in a treasure chest..."

Huang Tao: "Does the game designer think they're being funny?"

Fatty: "Look on the bright side, it's basically like getting a 'Thanks for playing' at a 49% discount. It doesn't seem... that bad, right?"

Wen Nan didn't say anything; he just shrugged and deposited the 51 gold coins into his account.

It didn't matter; he wasn't short on cash.

Snap!

With a snap of his fingers, Wen Nan spun the wheel again, initiating the second draw.

Another golden treasure chest dropped down.

[Congratulations! You have drawn a "White" tier prize--Money Bag!]

[Contents of Money Bag: 51 gold coins.]

[Accept?]

[Accept] [Decline] [Resell]

Wen Nan: ...

It had happened twice in a row.

No matter, go again!

Snap!

Another snap of his fingers, and the third golden treasure chest dropped.

[Congratulations! You have drawn a "White" tier prize--Money Bag!]

[Contents of Money Bag: 51 gold coins.]

[Accept?]

[Accept] [Decline] [Resell]

Wen Nan: ...

Doesn't matter, continue!

Snap!

The fourth chest, still a Money Bag.

Snap!

The fifth chest, still a Money Bag.

Snap! Snap! Snap! Snap! Snap!

Wen Nan drew ten times in a row, and received ten "White" tier Money Bags in a row!

Wen Nan: ...

Are you kidding me?

The eleventh time--

[Congratulations! You have drawn a "White" tier prize--Nutrient Supplement!]

[Nutrient Supplement: This item can rapidly replenish the daily energy required by a player's body, equivalent to consuming 2,500 calories of food...]

[Accept?]

[Accept][Decline][Resell]

"Awesome!"

The fatty clapped his hands loudly beside Wen Nan. "You only spent 100 gold coins and drew a [Nutrient Supplement] worth 200 gold coins. You're winning big!"

Wen Nan: ...

He could actually brag about this?

Fine, at least it was slightly better than a 51-gold-coin Money Bag.

Storing the [Nutrient Supplement] in his equipment slot, Wen Nan quickly started the next round of draws.

Snap!

As expected, another Money Bag.

Snap! Money Bag.

Snap! Money Bag.

Snap! Nutrient Supplement.

After successfully racking up 196 [Money Bags] and 21 bottles of [Nutrient Supplement], two-thirds of the crowd watching behind Wen Nan had drifted away.

Shao Ling, who wore glasses, and the athlete Huang Tao had both concluded that this so-called lucky wheel was merely a tool for fleecing players, and they had lost interest in watching any further.

The two silently returned to their beds and soon drifted off into a deep sleep, continuing the nightmares of their day.

Only the fatty remained steadfastly by his "grandpa's" side. No matter how many [Money Bags] Wen Nan drew, he never left, and whenever Wen Nan drew a [Nutrient Supplement], he would immediately applaud and cheer him on.

However, at some point, even those cheers began to fade.

In the silent night, the dormitory was filled with nothing but snoring and teeth-grinding, save for the rhythmic "Snap! Snap! Snap!" of opening treasure chests...

The sea of "white" made Wen Nan suspect he was about to develop snow blindness, when suddenly...

[Congratulations! You have drawn an "Orange" tier prize--Attribute Trial Card!]

"Orange!"

Wen Nan let out a low exclamation and turned to look at the fatty, only to find him slumped over the desk, drooling all over the place.

Wen Nan shook his head helplessly and tapped to open the prize.

[Attribute Trial Card: 100-point Attribute Trial Card, duration 3 hours.]

[Accept?]

[Accept][Decline][Resell]

It seemed this was the same trial card from the previous beginner's pack.

Still, this trial card was quite useful. After all, for the next mission, whether he was pinning Little Chili against a wall for a forced kiss or testing the depths of Aunt Mei, having a face with maxed-out charm stats would likely make things go much smoother.

Clicking accept, Wen Nan restarted the wheel.

One Money Bag after another fell into his inventory.

On the light screen hovering above, the countdown ticked away second by second, and Wen Nan's finger, clicking the draw button, never stopped for a moment.

After successfully collecting 5,638 Money Bags, 376 Nutrient Supplements, 213 Sleep Capsules, 153 Safety Bubbles, and 63 Attribute Trial Cards, Wen Nan finally drew his first "Red" tier prize.

[Congratulations! You have drawn a "Red" tier prize--Truth Serum!]

[Truth Serum: This item can be used on any player, target character, or NPC within the same map. Duration: 60 seconds. During this time, the target is forced to answer one question truthfully. This item is only effective on characters of nine stars or below and players under level 10. Limited to one use per mission.]

[Accept?]

[Accept][Decline][Resell]

Wen Nan raised an eyebrow.

Truth Serum... it certainly sounded like a very useful item.

Testing the depths of Aunt Mei next time would rely entirely on this.

Moreover, it wasn't just effective on characters; it worked on players too... which meant that with this item, the secrets held by that honor student might very well be solved easily.

Thinking of this, Wen Nan tucked the [Truth Serum] away with satisfaction and looked up at the light screen, his heart sinking.

[00:10:09--]

[00:10:08--]

There were only ten minutes left until the next mission began?

The time spent drawing prizes always slipped away so rapidly...

Wen Nan smiled helplessly.

He hadn't expected that for his bonus reward, the first thing to give out wouldn't be his account balance or his physical stamina, but the time limit itself.

It seemed that with his luck, he was destined to miss out on a "Golden Legend."

Resigned to his fate, Wen Nan raised his hand, preparing for one final ten-pull to end this lottery session.

He tapped his finger down—

A pitch-black chest dropped down.

[Congratulations! You have drawn a "Golden" prize—Archmage Staff Fragment!]
