"The intermediate roulette costs 100 one-star items per spin, while the advanced roulette requires 1,000 one-star items per spin."
Wu Zhending pondered this internally, pausing before urgently asking, "Can we exchange the beginner roulette spins we just purchased for intermediate roulette spins?"
"Of course."
"Then exchange all of them for intermediate roulette spins. We want to spin the intermediate roulette."
"No problem."
About half an hour later, the three members of the Wu Family leaned forward, their eyes fixed on the spinning roulette wheel on the screen. Their eyes were bloodshot, their expressions tense as they collectively whispered, "Red, red, red!!!"
A red result meant a three-star item!
They had already spun the intermediate roulette over two hundred times without a single red result. They had, however, obtained several two-star items.
Soon, the pointer slowly came to rest on an item.
[Item Name]: Butcher's Bone Cleaver
[Item Star: Two-star item.]
[Item Effect: This cleaver can effortlessly chop through any bone!]
[Item Description: For a butcher, a good bone cleaver is the ultimate weapon.]
"Huh?"
Wu Zhending paused, a glint of shrewdness flashing in his eyes as he turned to his eldest brother. "Eldest brother, this item must be quite valuable, right?"
"Indeed."
Wu Lengjing nodded calmly, his expression satisfied. "However, this item hasn't been tested yet. If its effect truly allows it to cut through any bone, it would be a dream treasure for starry sky hunters!"
"You see, many starry sky beasts have bones as hard as steel. Ordinary weapons are completely useless against them. Even after a desperate fight to the death, it's impossible to dismember them for collection."
"This item is worth at least 500,000! Maybe even 600,000!"
"With just this one item, we've already recouped our investment."
Hearing the business talk on the other side, Chen Jiang casually glanced at Scar Dog, who was standing outside the screen. Scar Dog nodded in understanding.
He had to admit, these items were coming in fast.
In just half an hour, he had already acquired two to three thousand one-star items.
Not bad at all.
Another day like this, and he'd easily rake in hundreds of thousands of one-star items.
When he heard the other party say they had already broken even, Chen Jiang's lips twitched slightly. For a moment, he didn't know what to say, so he simply signaled Scar Dog to adjust the item drop rates again.
He couldn't figure out what was going on. The other party had spun the roulette over 200 times, only hitting four two-star items, and yet they had already broken even?
How low was their initial investment?
But for Chen Jiang himself, this was an absolute windfall.
He had so many one-star items he couldn't even count them all. Nearby, Wang Defa was earning one-star items at a rate far exceeding the roulette's consumption.
As for two-star items, he wasn't lacking in those either!
He still had roughly 11,000 mutation points.
A two-star item cost at least 100-200 mutation points. Chen Jiang had just spent 600 mutation points to exchange for four two-star items, giving them all to the Wu Family.
In essence, he had used 600 mutation points to purchase a staggering 20,000-30,000 one-star items!
Where could you find a deal like that? It was simply impossible!
Soon, the Wu Family father and sons had spun the intermediate roulette over a thousand times and the advanced roulette nearly three hundred times.
Yes, they first spun the intermediate roulette over a thousand times. When they found the rewards underwhelming and the odds of getting anything good too low, they switched to the advanced roulette, spinning it nearly three hundred times.
Yet, they still hadn't seen a single three-star item.
Chen Jiang, who was moonlighting as the host, noticed the three men in the video looking visibly dispirited. He gave Scar Dog, who was watching off-screen, another subtle nod.
Almost immediately, a three-star item dropped from the roulette.
The entire room erupted in celebratory confetti!
The music switched to an upbeat, triumphant tune!
"Congratulations, everyone! You've successfully drawn a three-star item!"
Chen Jiang watched the figures on the screen with a beaming smile.
The three-star item he had allowed them to draw was one he had exchanged for merit points from the human race merit points shop.
It was arguably the first three-star item he had obtained, and also the least effective.
At least, among all the three-star items he had seen, this one had the weakest effect!
Of course, he wouldn't just send them the rabbit badge!
How could something so valuable be compared to some one-star items?
Even if the three-star item he sent turned out to be useless, that was their problem, not his.
Just tell me, is it a three-star item or not?
If it is, then shut up!
Meanwhile, the father and two sons sitting in the office heard the announcement and their eyes lit up. They all turned to the screen, where an item panel had appeared in the communication window.
[Item Name]: Heaven's Eye Pursuit Order
[Item Star]: Three-star item
[Item Effect]: Enter a player's name and approximate information to obtain their real-time updated location for 7 days!
[Item Description]: Stronger than the two-star Heaven's Eye Pursuit Order, for example, it lacks the drawback of self-destruction upon failure to kill the target.
"This... this..."
The next moment—
Wu Zhending, his face flushed with excitement, rushed to the liquor cabinet, grabbed a bottle of champagne, and slammed it violently onto the table, roaring with exhilaration, "We're rich! We're rich! We're going to be rich beyond our wildest dreams!!!"
Pop!
The fragrant champagne exploded into the air!
Wu Lengjing, equally frenzied, charged to the cabinet, seized another bottle, and smashed it heavily over his second brother's head, bellowing in primal joy, "Aba! Aba!"
Behind the two brothers, on the communication screen, the elderly man at his desk suddenly defied his age, leaping into the air. He yanked a bottle of champagne from a drawer and, with the same wild enthusiasm, smashed it over his own head.
"Good! Good! Good!!!"
Chen Jiang stared blankly at the screen, watching the three men who had just cracked their own skulls open. He was momentarily speechless.
Is this thing really that valuable?
The three-star item, the Heaven's Eye Pursuit Order, was something he had exchanged for just 3,000 human race merit points at the human race merit points shop.
He had only used it once, to hunt down that Li Xiumei.
But before he could even track her down, Li Xiumei had been killed, rendering the pursuit order useless.
Is this thing really that valuable?
This thing is probably the cheapest three-star item, and likely the least effective!
Yet the three members of the Wu Family stared at the item panel with fervent excitement, too thrilled to speak.
This was a global-tier rule item!
What kind of item is the most expensive?
Rule items!
And what kind of rule item is the most expensive?
Global-tier rule items!
In the Ten Thousand Races Arena, global-tier rule items transform into galaxy-tier rule items upon activation!
At the last auction, a global speaker sold for a staggering 2 million star coins!
In the end, a young master used the speaker to sing a birthday song to his mistress!
That day, every resident across every planet in the Nicholas Galaxy heard a man wailing through the birthday song!
And that was just a global speaker!
What was this?
This was a higher-tier three-star item: the Heaven's Eye Pursuit Order!
Who doesn't have enemies these days?
If you had an enemy you hated with every fiber of your being, someone you'd bankrupt yourself to kill, but you couldn't find them, I'd give you the Heaven's Eye Pursuit Order. As long as they were within the Nicholas Galaxy, you'd know their exact location and detailed information.
Would you want it?
Ten million star coins wouldn't be too much, right?
If you've provoked an exceptionally powerful clan, and they're hunting you relentlessly, but you possess extraordinary stealth skills, would you want this item?
No?
Fine, I'll just sell it to the clans chasing you.
Besides—
Even if you use it to capture galaxy-tier fugitives with high bounties from the Galactic Federation, you could make a fortune!
At a minimum, you'd earn at least six million star coins!
Find the right buyer, and you could double that, or even add a zero!
Unfortunately, people of that caliber are beyond our reach. Even if we sold it, it wouldn't be directly to them. Someone would buy the item from us and then resell it to them.
"Is it really that valuable?" Chen Jiang asked, his expression slightly odd. This was just an ordinary three-star item from the human race merit points shop.
There were plenty of such items in the Ten Thousand Races Arena.
If this item is so valuable, why is it so rare in the outside world?
Could the creator of the Ten Thousand Races Arena simply descend now and reclaim all the items?
Is it impossible to interrupt the Ten Thousand Races Arena once it's activated, or is there some other reason?
He wasn't entirely sure.
But he suspected the Ten Thousand Races Arena held some deeper secrets he didn't yet know.
Otherwise, with so many Ten Thousand Races Arenas, it would be impossible for items to be so scarce in the outside world.
Unless...
Wait a minute!
Chen Jiang's face froze as he suddenly remembered!
All the items in his possession still retained their World Origin Consciousness. They couldn't be used outside the arena.
Only after the Ten Thousand Races Arena ends will the World Origin Consciousness be erased from the items, allowing them to be used in the outside world!
In other words...
If he were to send these items to those people right now...
Not only would they be unable to use them, but it would immediately reveal that he was inside the Ten Thousand Races Arena!
Because only those within the arena can access items with their World Origin Consciousness intact!
He had almost forgotten that crucial detail from the forum post.
Fortunately, he had temporarily stored all his items and hadn't sent them yet.
There was still time to salvage the situation.
But how could he entice these people to spend even more without actually giving them the items?
