Chapter 206: The Temptation Of The Golden Scroll
160 Spirit Crystals per draw isn’t that expensive.
The key is that if you’re lucky, you can get it done with very little money.
Hu Yanfei considered himself somewhat lucky; otherwise, it would be impossible to be reborn into such a good family.
“100 draws guarantees a Gold Scroll Prayer Scroll, right? Let’s try 100 draws first.”
Just 16,000 Spirit Crystals, no big deal~!
Recharge, exchange, all in one go.
Directly one ten consecutive draws:
【Leopard Tail Marshal-Copper Axis】Instance.
【Ox Head Yin Marshal-Copper】Rubbing
Four Great Judges Collector’s Edition Album
Commander Yin Soldier Fragment×1
Elite Yin Soldier Fragment×1
Elite Yin Soldier Fragment×1
Underworld Outpost Ticket×1
Thank you for your patronage
……
One ten consecutive draws doesn’t seem too bad.
“One of the Ten Great Yin Marshals, Leopard Tail?” Hu Yanfei curled his lips in disappointment.
Trash Copper Scroll naturally doesn’t match his noble Gold Tier Player status; he’s aiming for Gold Scroll.
But according to the rules in the announcement, if you draw a Scroll Painting you don’t like or need, you can apparently decompose it to recover Points, and exchange them in the Points mall for Gold Scroll Prayer Scrolls and some miscellaneous items.
In addition, five identical Copper Axis can be exchanged for the corresponding Silver Scroll Painting.
It’s just that this 【Underworld Outpost Ticket】 is understandable, but what the hell is 【Yin Soldier Fragment】?
According to the card prompt, ten fragments can be synthesized into a complete Yin Soldier Card, which can be exchanged for a Yin Soldier at the Underworld Club.
“Special Scroll Painting?”
Hu Yanfei muttered to himself but didn’t pay too much attention, and immediately did another ten consecutive draws.
At this time, on the official website forum, netizens were already discussing fervently, completely boiling over.
“What the hell? Scroll Painting sales with lottery draws like this?”
“Is this even reasonable?”
“160 Spirit Crystals per draw, why not just rob money?”
“Didn’t you see ten consecutive draws guarantee a Copper Axis Scroll Painting? It actually ends up quite a bit cheaper.”
“Cheaper? What if you draw something you don’t like?”
“Isn’t there a Trading System right there? If it’s too much trouble, you can decompose it into Points and exchange for various Card Pool items.”
“Damn, they thought of everything.”
“Although I don’t understand why they did it this way, it seems pretty reasonable overall.”
“What if you keep drawing and never get the Scroll Painting you want?”
“The announcement’s supplemental terms explain it clearly: this lottery system uses a special mechanism where, upon triggering the guarantee, the probability of drawing a compatible Scroll Painting significantly increases.”
“What the hell? Can the computer know what Scroll Painting I want? And know which one suits me?”
“That’s too ridiculous, right?”
“By the way, have any rich brothers tried it? How’s the experience?”
“Heh heh, one ten consecutive draws and I directly got soul-bound 【Black and White Impermanence】, done!”
“Real or fake? Is this a shill?”
“Shill what, lots of people in the group are already showing off their orders.”
“Damn, a bunch of seals, I’m dying of envy, why can’t I draw a Scroll Painting I like?”
“It must be my bad luck, no, I have to try again.”
After some initial discussion and attempts, more and more netizens decided to try it themselves.
The lucky ones screenshot and show off their orders, the unlucky ones post complaints, the entire forum buzzing with activity.
Among them, there were no shortage of rich but easily excited players who got more and more into it.
Take our Young Master Hu Yanfei, for example: after hitting the 50-draw guarantee with a 【Day Roaming God-Silver】Instance, he continued with ten consecutive draws.
It wasn’t until the 90th draw, nearing the big guarantee, that he finally drew a 【Gold Scroll Prayer Scroll】.
He immediately rushed to the Gold Scroll Prize Pool.
One draw, and he only got a complete 【Elite Ghost Soldier】 card.
“Tsk~ So the real pit is here!”
Hu Yanfei then realized that the Gold Scroll Prize Pool had no guarantee mechanism; it was pure destiny and luck.
“Hmph! I just don’t believe it.”
So he decisively recharged and started a frenzy of ten consecutive draws mode, decomposing all the drawn Scroll Paintings, exchanging the Points for Gold Scroll Prayer Scrolls, and dumping them all into the Gold Scroll Prize Pool, but unfortunately still didn’t draw Gold Scroll Qualification.
Frustrated as he was, Hu Yanfei didn’t care about the money invested, but why he couldn’t draw Gold Scroll Qualification?
At this time on the official website forum, netizens had gradually shifted from initial doubt and confusion to accepting this method.
“Not gonna lie~ it’s pretty fun.”
“Feels a bit addictive, brothers.”
“If I hadn’t already drawn my desired Scroll Painting, I’d even want to draw a few more for luck.”
“What are you hesitating for? Just draw! If you don’t need it, sell it to other netizens! Plus, aren’t you going to upgrade to Silver Scroll later?”
“Oh yeah! I’m drawing now!”
“Does anyone know what these 【Yin Soldier Fragments】 and 【Ghost Soldier Fragments】 are for? Ten fragments synthesize a complete card.”
“Seems like you exchange them at the club for something, like souvenirs?”
“Doesn’t look like it from the description~!”
“Dunno, my previous Silver Scroll Order compensation was an Elite Yin Soldier Card; I’ll go ask at the Underworld Club later.”
“No no no, why do I feel like the Yin Soldiers and Ghost Soldiers in this illustration look familiar?”
“Holy crap, aren’t these the weird elite Abyssal Monsters from the controlled zones in the Abyssal Realm before?”
“I remember now too; those Yin Soldier Abyssal Monsters have no Hostility toward Yin Commander Scroll Paintings and will even fight alongside them.”
“What do you mean? You can exchange for these special Abyssal Monsters at the club? Real or fake?”
“So our great Yin Commander Scroll Paintings can also lead troops into battle?”
“Hiss~ I think I get why Yin Commander Scroll Paintings are called Yin Commanders now?”
“The key is, where does the Underworld Club get so many Yin Soldier Abyssal Monsters?”
“Everyone wait a sec, my place is pretty close to the Underworld Club; I’m going to exchange for a Yin Soldier to try.”
“Waiting online, hurry hurry!”
……
Hu Yan City, Huyan Family Mansion.
Hu Yanfei was gradually heating up; after thirteen Gold Scroll Prayer Scrolls, he hadn’t gotten any Gold Scroll.
“This is too disgusting, right?”
Was it his own bad luck, or was the Gold Scroll Prize Pool too deep?
Logically, his luck couldn’t be this bad.
Refusing to believe it, Hu Yanfei went to the forum to find fellow sufferers and vent about this disgusting gacha mechanism.
But he found someone had already shown off a Gold Scroll Qualification card; clicking the post, it was a netizen named 【Saving Money to Buy a House】. From the name, you could tell it wasn’t some rich brother; definitely didn’t spend much.
【Saving Money to Buy a House】: “Oh my god! Oh my god! I think I drew it, so excited, what do I do!”
Below was the post of that golden, fully effect-loaded card illustration.
【Horse-Face Yin Marshal-Gold】With this scroll, you may place an order for the corresponding Gold Scroll card face at this club; materials self-provided.
On the back of the card face, it detailed the various material requirements needed to craft the Gold Scroll Horse-Face.
Once the post was published, it instantly drew a crowd of netizens to watch and discuss heatedly.
“Holy crap! Someone got Gold Scroll Qualification this fast?”
“What the heck? The OP only used one Gold Scroll Prayer Scroll to draw it? And this Gold Scroll Prayer Scroll was from the 60th draw?”
“Grass! Comparing people is infuriating!”
“Wah wah wah, I’ve dumped two Gold Scroll Prayer Scrolls and got nothing.”
“First absorb some luck, I absorb I absorb I absorb absorb——!”
“Wait, Horse-Face Yin Marshal has a Gold version?”
“Real or fake? Aren’t the Ten Great Yin Marshals low-level Scroll Paintings? They can upgrade to Gold Scroll?”
“Silver Scroll Yin Marshals are already this strong; after upgrading to Gold Scroll, won’t they ascend to heaven?”
“I hadn’t heard any rumors about Gold Scroll Yin Marshals before; really want to see the splendor of a Gold Scroll Yin Marshal.”
“OP selling? Price private message, won’t let you down.”
“Gold Scroll Qualification; if you sell this, won’t you achieve Financial Freedom directly?”
“Only a fool would sell; who knows if you’ll have this luck again?”
“Yeah, that’s Gold Scroll Qualification! The lifelong pursuit of us Spirit Tamers!”
Not long after, the OP 【Saving Money to Buy a House】 changed their name to 【Saving for Gold Horse-Face】 and replied: “Sorry, although my family is average, I absolutely will not transfer this heaven-sent opportunity to others.
Hope everyone can also draw their desired Scroll Paintings, cheer up~ Respect!”
“I knew the OP wouldn’t sell; if it were me, even if I had to sell everything, I’d save up for the Gold Scroll.”
“Would take out loans too; with Gold Scroll, no fear of not repaying loans?”
