Chapter 442 - 438: Drawing Until Shut Down

Xie Ning was speechless.

Good thing this wasn’t a real Krypton Gold Roulette, or she would have been furious enough to die.

Xie Ning started spinning the wheel. Little Spider, her eager accomplice, wished it had more legs as it frantically worked the controls with a flurry of fancy moves.

Xie Ning didn’t notice, but the number of spins on her Krypton Gold Roulette was steadily climbing.

Xie Ning was already getting a bit hooked.

Based on her experience spinning the wheel, a red light definitely meant a good prize.

Next were gold, purple, green, and white. White was the most common; in ten spins, seven or eight white flashes would go by, yielding things like kitchen knives, military daggers, and basic-grade Nutrient Liquid.

When a purple light finally appeared, Xie Ning took one look and her eyes widened in frustration.

One sip lasts three days! One bottle of Supreme Edition Nutrient Liquid!

’What’s the use of this?’

After a hundred spins, the only thing of note she got was a strange seed. Everything else seemed pretty useless to her.

The most ridiculous part was, she still hadn’t gotten a matching slipper for the ordinary-looking one she’d won in the first round!

’This is f*cking... unbelievable!’

Little Spider silently glanced at Host Ningning, not daring to speak.

Someone who was hooked on spinning the wheel was now sulking over her own cursedly bad luck!

’My luck is just way, way, way too rotten!’

The ordinary-looking slipper was just a green-tier item, and she couldn’t even get another one.

Besides her terrible luck, there was another possibility: the wheel was a trap, designed to bait people into spending more Crystal Cores.

Why else would it give you a red-tier item on the first round to get you hooked?

It meant the odds of getting a High-level prize from this wheel were infuriatingly low!

With a dark expression, Xie Ning tapped her small hand and kept spinning, spinning, spinning!

Little Spider obediently lay to the side, not daring to say a word. It just continued to act as an accomplice, helping its Host get more chances to spin the wheel.

One bottle of Supreme Edition Nutrient Liquid!

One military dagger!

One ordinary-looking slipper!

Congratulations, dear. You’ve won one talking automatic massage chair.

V8 Homemade Superpower Gun.

One pair of men’s leather shoes that make you walk like the wind.

Ordinary-looking boxing gloves.

The more Xie Ning spun, the angrier she got. ’What is all this trash?’

A pile of Nutrient Liquid and military daggers had already accumulated beside her. Suddenly, the wheel flashed red, and Xie Ning’s spirits lifted.

Congratulations, dear. You’ve won a Mutated Adult White Tiger with extremely high attack power. It will also roar at you cutely in its spare time.

Xie Ning and Little Spider stared at each other.

"Where’s the White Tiger?"

Little Spider’s voice had a mechanical tinge. "Host Ningning, do you want to release the White Tiger from the system mall’s warehouse right now?"

"Let it out. I want to see it."

"I’m afraid that might not be appropriate..."

Xie Ning was baffled. "What’s not appropriate about it?"

"I can’t take out something I won right away from the Dimensional Space?"

"It’s not that. It’s just that this White Tiger is enormous. If you release it suddenly, Host Ningning, your little cubicle might not... be able to fit it!"

"Oh, right." Xie Ning accepted Little Spider’s advice. "Then let’s keep spinning."

Little Spider: ...

With another tap of her small hand, Xie Ning opened the wheel and continued winning items, round after round.

It wasn’t as if she was immune to the pain, even if it wasn’t real money.

Round after round, she mostly got knives. Though sharper than what ordinary people used, they were of little use to a Superpower User.

The Nutrient Liquid was piling up like a mountain.

It was good stuff for ordinary people, but for Xie Ning and her family, it was completely useless!

Besides... ever since Xie Ning found out what the low-end, simplified version of Nutrient Liquid was made from, she’d lost all interest in the Supreme Edition too.

’It’s disgusting just thinking about it. Anyway, I’m not interested. Whoever wants it can have it!’

WHIRRR. Xie Ning watched the wheel spin again, staring blankly at the pointer.

"Friend, have you noticed?"

"Noticed what?"

"You only get a red-tier prize every hundred spins! Right?"

"I... guess so." Little Spider was dizzy from watching Host Ningning spin so much. It hadn’t been counting, but it certainly felt like a lot.

"Isn’t that a total rip-off?" Xie Ning grabbed a pillow to hug and turned to Little Spider with a serious expression. "I used to play card games, and even the big-name titles from major companies weren’t this much of a scam."

"Usually, you’re guaranteed something good after sixty or seventy pulls, right?"

"Right, right."

"And someone with insane luck can get a top prize in just ten pulls, right?"

"Right, right!"

"Even if I don’t have insane luck, my luck shouldn’t be this cursed."

"Everything you say is right, Host Ningning. Don’t be angry, don’t be angry." ’This is unbelievable!’

It had never seen someone get this angry over a free gacha wheel...

"Host, look! You got one, you got one! A gold-tier item!"

One L9 Long-range Shooting Gun!

Three hundred V8 bullets!

"See, see! Host, you don’t have cursed luck, you have amazing luck! Two gold-tier items at once, that’s awesome!" Little Spider praised her for all it was worth.

Xie Ning was expressionless. "Do this gun and these bullets even match??"

"They do, they do! Host Ningning, did you forget that you already won a few V8 Superpower Guns in the previous hundred spins?"

’Did I?’

Puzzled, Xie Ning reached into the mountain of Nutrient Liquid at her feet and rummaged around, pulling out an "ordinary-looking blanket."

Sure enough, underneath the blanket was a brand-new V8 Superpower Gun.

"What is all this junk?" Xie Ning tossed the ordinary-looking blanket aside.

Little Spider hurriedly whispered, "Don’t toss it, don’t toss it! You can give this to your grandpa and grandma. Don’t be fooled by its ordinary appearance, it’s temperature-regulating! It’s a warm-in-winter, cool-in-summer blanket. You can even use it as a cooling mat in the summer."

Xie Ning was rather speechless, but she did as it said and set the blanket aside.

Suddenly, the wheel flashed purple, and small text appeared.

Congratulations, dear. You’ve obtained one pair of Heaven and Earth Jumping Shoes. Wearing these will let you soar into the heavens.

Congratulations, dear. You’ve obtained three Overload Defense Vests at once...

This was immediately followed by a flash of red light.

The system mall interface erupted in a screen full of fireworks, accompanied by a string of colorful text.

Congratulations, dearest! You’ve won the ultimate roulette prize: one Divine Stone.

If a Spiritual Ability User obtains this stone and studies it thoroughly, there may be unexpected effects.

Xie Ning’s spirits soared. She hurriedly urged Little Spider, "Quick, quick, quick! Take everything out, right now! Including that White Tiger."

"Don’t worry, the moment you release it, I’ll throw it into the Farmstead. Hurry!"

Little Spider wished all eight of its legs could operate the virtual keyboard at once.

It frantically hammered away at the keys with a frantic CLATTER!

The special gold and red-tier items that were still in the warehouse were immediately retrieved at top speed.

Including that ultimate prize, the Divine Stone.

When the items were released, Xie Ning didn’t even have a chance to look. She hastily threw the massive White Tiger, which had just materialized in mid-air before it could even roar, into the Farmstead Space.

Then, with a flicker of her body, she followed it into the Farmstead Space.

At the same time, the main control room of the X Realm’s backend system was thrown into utter chaos as alarms blared nonstop, "GAK! GAK! GAK!"
