Chapter 22 Xu Ercong's Unrivaled Luck
In any game, if you want to become powerful, there is no more direct and easy way than spending money.
Perhaps in the later stages of many online games, every bit of strength is not easy to gain, but spending money in the early stages of the game is the most direct and fastest way to improve your strength.
The same applies to Deathly Hallows.
The various professional equipment in the lucky draw wheel are top-notch items that every Death Scourge player is jealous of.
After all, so far, no known World of Warcraft can drop equipment, and many players speculate that if they want equipment, they may only be able to obtain it through NPCs in the expansion pack.
It can be said that in the current "Death Scourge", any player who has equipment other than novice weapons is an absolute boss! The first echelon of players!
Although in "Death Scourge", blue equipment is just an ordinary undead weapon made by Xu Xiaofan using a very small amount of divine power, and it does not have any particularly powerful attributes and effects at this stage, it is still highly sought after by players.
So even though Xu Ercong's purpose today was to draw the legion appointment letter, there were still many players enthusiastically discussing other lottery contents.
"I bet that Brother Cong will be able to draw at least twenty !"
"You said too little. The last time Ma Ke died, he drew more than sixty times in a row, and he drew sixteen pieces of blue equipment."
"After a hundred consecutive draws, you'll need at least 40 pieces of blue equipment!"
"It would be nice if there were more things in the lucky draw wheel. Blue equipment alone isn't enough. It would be even better if there were some purple epic or gold legendary items."
"Brother, you played cards all night last night, right? The Golden Legend is out."
…
The players were talking about it, their excitement was beyond words. People who didn't know thought that the one drawing the lottery was not Xu Ercong but the players watching.
After the players discussed for a while, Xu Xiaofan saw the senior executives of the Dead Paradise Club arriving one after another.
Each of them initiated a transaction application to Xu Ercong.
[Dear player, you have completed the transaction and received 385 days of life points. ]
[Dear player, you have completed the transaction and received 1235 days of life points. ]
[Dear player, you have completed the transaction and received 786 days of life points. ]
…
One after another, the divine system prompts sounded. Even though Xu Ercong was mentally prepared, when he saw his life points increasing, he couldn't help but feel a strange sense of comfort and satisfaction.
"It would be great if these life points were actually lifespans."
This weird thought popped up in Xu Ercong's mind, but he quickly dismissed it: "The Death God's Calamity is too real. I've mistaken the game currency for my real life span."
"But this also shows the strength of the game team. They made good use of the players' immersion in the game, which is how they created this Death God Disaster game with a strong sense of immersion."
Soon, a large number of life points gathered.
These are the life points accumulated since the establishment of the Paradise of the Dead until now. When the club was first established, Xu Ercong had already learned from Xu Xiaofan about the existence of a player legion system.
From the very beginning, Xu Ercong was well prepared, and he was determined to get the position of the first legion leader of "Death Scourge".
After preparing for so long and investing millions of dollars to acquire the huge amount of funds, Xu Ercong is now very confident.
He felt that he could take advantage of the fact that other gaming clubs had not really taken the game "Death Scourge" seriously and establish a gaming advantage that no one else could surpass.
…
The lottery roulette is also known as the Death's Favor roulette.
The appearance of the roulette wheel is a huge black wheel that is three people tall. It is covered with densely packed patterns and divided into areas of different sizes, totaling one hundred.
Each square has a small icon, representing different rewards, from various blue equipment to the coveted Legion Appointment Letter.
Of course, there is also the “thank you for your patronage” that is essential to every lottery event.
The “Thank you for your patronage” area is quite large. There are three “Thank you for your patronage” areas in the entire large roulette wheel, and the rest are reward areas.
Although there are only three areas out of a hundred that say “Thank you for your patronage,” according to research by analysts at the Dead Paradise Analysis Department, if calculated based on the ratios in the graphic chart, the chance of drawing “Thank you for your patronage” each time is no less than 25 percent.
In other words, every time Xu Ercong draws a lottery, there is a one in four chance of winning nothing.
If his luck is bad enough, he may waste all his life points and still not get the legion appointment letter.
Of course, if he was lucky enough, he would only need one draw to win the legion appointment letter.
“It’s impossible.”
Xu Xiaofan held his chin and looked at Xu Ercong expectantly. He sat in the Death Hall, pulled his cloak, and muttered: "Draw, draw! My lovely believer. Please rest assured that if you don't draw a full 100 times, you will definitely not get the Legion Appointment Letter."
Although the official claims that the lottery roulette is 100% based on probability and luck, there is absolutely no water in it.
But Xu Xiaofan lied about the chances of winning the legion appointment letter.
If you don't draw a full 100 times, the chance of winning the legion appointment letter is 100% zero, and it is operated secretly by the Divine Being, so no one will ever notice anything unusual and will only lament their bad luck.
According to the lottery rules set by Xu Xiaofan, each draw on the lottery roulette will consume 100 days of life.
After ten draws, the chance of winning a prize doubles! But you also need double the lifespan to draw, which means you need 200 days of lifespan for a single draw!
After fifty draws, the chance of winning a prize doubles! The number of days of life consumed by the draw also doubles, requiring 400 days of life for a single draw!
In other words, Xu Ercong wanted to draw a legion appointment letter.
Then he must have 30,000 days of life points!
Xu Xiaofan used his authority to secretly take a look at the life points Xu Ercong currently had.
Paradise of the Dead has been sparing no effort in spending huge sums of money to buy life points from players during this period. Since the price of life points was not high in the early stages of the game, Xu Ercong took the opportunity to hoard a lot of life points.
[Xu Ercong, has lifespan points: 45688 days.]
Seeing the information fed back by the divine nature, Xu Xiaofan took a deep breath.
"Oh my goodness, young man, you are very long-lived!"
This is at least 125 years of lifespan. If Xu Ercong brings this lifespan energy back to the real world, plus the lifespan energy that his own soul already has, this kid can live to at least 200 years old!
"What a pity. Today your life energy will belong to me."
Xu Xiaofan chuckled: "I won't steal the lifespan of the believers themselves, but the lifespan energy you get from plundering other creatures must all be mine!"
…
“Start the lottery!”
Xu Ercong waved his hand, walked to the large black lottery roulette wheel, and placed his palm in a groove in the lower left corner of the roulette wheel.
[Player Xu Ercong, do you want to consume 100 days of life to participate in the lottery? ]
"confirm."
【May the god of death always favor you. 】
【The lucky draw begins. 】
Along with the reminder from the divine system, the large black lottery roulette wheel slowly started to spin, then gradually increased in speed, and soon it became unclear what it looked like.
It’s strange to say, such a big lottery roulette wheel makes no noise when it is spinning, not even a sound of wind, which is even worse than an electric fan.
The scene was eerily quiet as everyone was waiting for the results of the first lottery.
"What if I win the first time?"
Xu Ercong couldn't help but feel a little excited.
Although he knew that this was an extremely irrational idea, people always have a sense of luck, and no matter how powerful a person is, he cannot avoid this nature.
"Buzz!"
The lottery wheel slowed down against common sense, and then the pointer slid slowly, passing directly over the legion appointment letter without any trace of cheating, and jumped to a blue equipment among the following ones.
[Dear player, congratulations on winning the "Shiny Black Primary Staff", a summoning-specific equipment. ]
A pitch-black short staff emerged from the lottery wheel, turned into a physical entity, and fell in front of Xu Ercong.
The whole audience exclaimed.
"I won! What great luck!"
"Thank you for your patronage for the first seven draws in a row!"
"Brother Cong's luck is much better than Brother Ma's, at least seven times better!"
"I think Brother Cong has a chance to get the Legion Appointment Letter within a hundred times today. I bet one day's life points!"
…
The first draw resulted in a blue piece of equipment, a relatively rare summoning blue weapon, which made the players even more excited and looking forward to subsequent draws.
"Fuck."
Xu Xiaofan took a deep breath. The divine being had just reminded him that Xu Ercong had really won the legion appointment letter in his first draw!
If the Godhead had not received Xu Xiaofan's order long ago, Xu Xiaofan would probably not have been able to get the large amount of life points in Cong Ge's pocket.
"This is a monster!"
Xu Xiaofan complained helplessly: "Is there really such a lucky person in this world? A lucky draw roulette that is larger than a large hotel dining table only to draw an area less than the size of a toothpick?"
"well."
Xu Ercong sighed and laughed at himself: "I thought I was so lucky that I only needed one draw to get the Legion Appointment Letter."
He picked up the staff and glanced at it casually.
[Glowing Black Primary Staff] Level 10 blue weapon, physical damage +2, summoned creatures' strength increased by 5%, one of the "Glowing Black" set. After collecting the "Glowing Black" set, you can activate the set effect [Glowing Black Summoned Creatures], which increases the strength of all summoned creatures by 10%, and the total summoned creature limit +2 (This is the ultimate undead weapon that all skeleton mages desire. Legend has it that it was a toy made by a lich for his children. Of course, I also want to know why liches have offspring.)
"Suit weapon?"
Xu Ercong was stunned. This should be the first set of weapons in [Death Scourge], right?
Xu Ercong was very good at seizing the opportunity and directly announced the attributes of the suit weapons in the world chat channel, causing another round of exclamations from the players.
"So there are suit weapons!"
"This attribute is really abnormal. A weapon of the mage profession actually has physical damage."
"What? Summoners still want to engage in close combat these days?"
"Doesn't anyone think that the key point is why liches can reproduce?"
…
Xu Ercong's seemingly generous behavior was actually intended to deepen the passion and atmosphere of the onlookers, leaving a deeper impression of the Paradise of the Dead in everyone's hearts.
"Brother Cong, you are lucky."
The philosopher laughed, and Wang Dali also put his arm around Xu Ercong's arm: "Brother, let's make a deal. I've already joined the club, why don't you sell me this equipment at a low price?"
"Aren't you going to switch to Berserker?"
"No, no, no, I changed my mind. I want to switch to the summoning department."
"what ever."
Xu Ercong rolled his eyes and stuffed the set of weapons directly into Wang Dali's arms.
The whole audience was boiling again.
"Fuck, Cong-ge is so generous!"
"Isn't this guy a member of the club's first team? How could he get a set of weapons so easily?"
"I can't believe my eyes! Brother Cong is such a good boss! I want to join the Paradise of the Dead too!"
The players watching were shouting, and some of them were staring at the weapon set in Wang Dali's arms, wishing they could snatch it away on the spot.
This is the first set of weapons in the game!
…
"Continue the lottery."
Xu Ercong took the opportunity to shout: "Don't worry, wait until the lottery is over, anyone who wants to join the Paradise of the Dead can sign up!"
"We, the Paradise of the Dead, absolutely welcome every player friend with potential!"
"We will lead everyone, follow the will of Lord Death, conquer all other worlds, and complete all expansion packs!"
