Chapter 185

There are pros and cons (Chapter 185)

A lottery draw worth tens of millions of points, and even the spinning wheel floating in the air had changed its appearance. It now shimmered with a dazzling golden light, so bright that Ye Sheng couldn't bear to look at it directly.

She could only issue the draw command in her heart.

Unlike the ten-draws worth a million points, this lottery draw didn’t allow her to spend points to lock in a specific area; it was purely random.

What could she say? It had both pros and cons!

On the bright side, spending tens of millions of points on a lottery draw surely meant only good things.

If she ended up drawing some useless items, she would be absolutely furious… From then on, the lottery space could forget about earning even a single point from her. The energy stones she hadn’t exchanged yet would be reserved for Gu Luoyu.

After all, Espers were major consumers of energy stones, so there was no worry about not having a use for them.

Trying to console herself, the golden spinning wheel floating in the air began to rotate, and as it spun faster, it started emitting a dazzling array of colors.

By the time the ten-draw was completed, the items she had drawn were announced.

Poseidon’s Blade (Cursed): A weapon from the legendary sea god. With it, one can stir up storms in any place with water, becoming the ruler of the seas. It also comes with Poseidon’s blessing, granting a tenfold increase in physical strength. More uses of the weapon are to be discovered (PS: Unfortunately, Poseidon lost his weapon and, in his anger, cast a curse, reducing physical strength by twenty times and adding the negative effects of weakness and disorientation).

Hmm…

It seemed like a powerful item.

A weapon once used by the sea god… but why did it come with a curse?

A twentyfold reduction in physical strength? That would make her as fragile as a piece of paper!

And while it would be effective in places with water, this was the wasteland world! Even the ditches were filled with massive dangers, let alone lakes and oceans, which had become forbidden zones for humans.

The water was teeming with polluted creatures and plants.

Who knows how much they’ve evolved by now?

The only saving grace was that aquatic creatures couldn’t come ashore, or else the humans living on land would face the risk of extinction!

With the first lottery item as a baseline, Ye Sheng felt her mood had stabilized.

Every draw was as thrilling as opening a blind box…

Now she just hoped to get something useful!

Pray! Pray! Pray!

Unknown Egg (Unique): With careful incubation, it might hatch into a divine pet that could dominate the battlefield, or it might turn out to be a useless waste. It’s all a mystery. Brave and lucky one, start your gamble!

Ye Sheng: …

She was so speechless she almost laughed. What kind of stuff was this?

The lottery was already like opening a blind box, and now there was an unknown egg with an uncertain hatching rate.

Out of curiosity, Ye Sheng couldn’t help but call the lottery space to stop and take out the egg to see what it looked like.

Was it a giant egg?

But as a golden light flashed, an egg the size of a fist appeared.

The shell was covered in a dazzling array of colors, almost dizzying to look at.

That’s it?

Even if it could hatch a divine beast, how powerful could it be at such a tiny size?

Ye Sheng looked at the egg in front of her, feeling a headache coming on as she massaged her temples. She felt like she’d been scammed by the lottery space, losing a huge amount of points!

As Ye Sheng sighed at the egg, Ye Heiya,, suddenly appeared out of nowhere. It let out a “quack” with a hint of excitement, waddling over to Ye Sheng.

Its eyes gleamed as it stared at the egg, even flapping its wings in excitement.

Then it turned to Ye Sheng. Though it couldn’t speak, its intentions were clear, it wanted the egg.

Ye Sheng quickly picked up the unknown egg and coldly rejected Ye Heiya.

This was an egg worth millions of points! It wasn’t for eating!

Ye Sheng’s refusal made Ye Heiya anxious.

Now larger in size, it grabbed the hem of her clothes with its beak and started acting like a goose, trying to charm her. But it didn’t control its strength well and ended up tearing a piece of her clothes.

Ye Heiya guiltily spat out the torn fabric and was about to grab her clothes again when Ye Sheng quickly stepped back.

If it tore her clothes again, she’d be left naked.

Since she had some affection for her pet, Ye Sheng tried to reason with it gently, “This egg is extremely valuable. You can’t just eat it. When Gu Luoyu comes back, I’ll have her take you to find other polluted creatures’ eggs so you can eat to your heart’s content.”

“Quack! Quack quack quack, quack… quack quack!”

Having lived with Ye Sheng for so long, Ye Heiya was quite intelligent and could understand her words.

It flapped its wings in frustration, quacking for a while, but when it realized Ye Sheng didn’t understand, it started pacing around in annoyance. Then, as if struck by inspiration, it suddenly lay down.

It made a gesture like a hen sitting on a nest.

Ye Sheng: …

If she wasn’t mistaken, Ye Heiya didn’t want to eat the egg, it wanted to hatch it!

No way!

To make sure she wasn’t misunderstanding, Ye Sheng asked, “Do you want to hatch this egg?”

Hearing this, Ye Heiya quickly nodded vigorously, its eyes shining as it stared at the egg in Ye Sheng’s hand, as if it were a rare treasure.

This made Ye Sheng hesitate. Seeing Ye Heiya’s determination, she decided to let it take charge of the egg.

She also warned, “This egg is extremely valuable. If you break it, you’ll never get to touch another egg again, understand? For sustainable development, you need to take good care of it.”

“Quack quack quack.”

With the egg in its possession, Ye Heiya happily waddled away, leaving Ye Sheng to watch it with unease. She consoled herself that maybe it was better for Ye Heiya to hatch the egg.

After all, if she had to do it herself, she’d need to buy an incubator.

But why was Ye Heiya, who usually only cared about eating, suddenly interested in this egg?

With this question in mind, Ye Sheng ordered the lottery space to continue announcing the remaining eight items, which hadn’t been revealed yet.

Strength Pill: Eat it, and you’ll randomly gain a 1 to 10 times increase in your current strength. The brave enjoy the world first. Go, become the strongest warrior!

Finally, a useful item!

Ye Sheng was so excited she almost cried.

An item that could increase strength, even if it was just a one-time boost, was extremely valuable to her, because it wasn’t a temporary attribute but a permanent enhancement!

As Ye Sheng reveled in the joy of obtaining the Strength pill, the lottery space continued its announcements.

Space-based Special Ability (Ultra Rare): Randomly obtain a special ability related to space, permanently. It’s said that someone once drew the ability to teleport, allowing them to freely jump through wormholes and black holes, becoming one of the top ten strongest in the galaxy!
