Of course, thanks to those who voted, over sixty votes in just one morning! I truly appreciate everyone; in the end, I still seek subscriptions!”

What the hell is this?

This question arose in everyone's mind.

Even at the top floor of the meeting center, the enormous shadow of the roulette brought immense pressure and shock to the survivors!

That height of several dozen meters, that spinning surface of light, densely packed with all kinds of good items, was like a bewitching witch, radiating deadly temptation to anyone who saw it.

“Poppy Wheel?!”

Ye Zhongming was also dumbfounded; he never expected the Poppy Wheel to appear here, and at this moment.

The Poppy Wheel is actually just a term of both love and hate used by survivors in the previous life to describe this roulette—a psychological manifestation. More accurately, this roulette should be called the Precision Exchange Roulette.

After the Precision Exchange Roulette spins randomly, it doesn’t choose a fixed item, but a major category, such as weapons, potions, etc. Once a major category is confirmed, the items within that category can be freely exchanged. Prices will be displayed, and you can select which item you want to exchange.

In his previous life, Ye Zhongming wasn’t in Ying City at this time, and he wasn’t sure if the Precision Exchange Roulette had appeared then. In his memory, he had never heard anyone mention it, and he didn’t know if this was a change brought about by his rebirth.

However, he had seen this kind of roulette in his previous life, so he was well aware of its benefits, and… its downsides.

The Precision Exchange Roulette allows people to avoid gambling and instead obtain good items through real strength. As long as you have enough magic crystals and the items you need are on the wheel, you have a chance to get what you want.

It is a chance, not a certainty.

While tempting survivors sufficiently, the Poppy Wheel also began to reveal its devilish side.

The way this roulette appeared could only be described as earth-shattering; in such a densely populated city full of zombies, its emergence was destined to be known by all living beings.

And that disc, while not shimmering with colors, still sparkled; even in the daytime, it was dazzling, and at night, it shone like a lighthouse guiding the way. Even if those creatures around were oblivious to the anomaly, they would eventually notice it.

What made survivors even more anxious was that on the outer edge of the roulette, a circle of bright red liquid flowed across the surface. Each time the roulette was spun, a drop of this red liquid would fall from a spot on the bottom of the wheel.

For humans, this substance was of no use; consuming it would even lead to death. However, for mutated beings, it was incredibly tempting. The liquid not only emitted a scent that attracted mutated life and their greed but also granted immense energy to those who consumed it. Lower-tiered beings could directly evolve, while even higher-level ones would significantly enhance their strength.

Another crucial point was that zombies and mutated beings often followed survivors. The attraction of the roulette to survivors was evident, and as they hurried here, mutated beings would inevitably follow.

So combined, who knows how many people, zombies, monsters, and mutated beings were gathering here. Soon, the area beneath the gigantic roulette would turn into a slaughterhouse, a meat grinder. If you wanted to spin the roulette, it was not just about having magic crystals; you also had to ensure you could rush in—spin the roulette—take the items, and survive to complete these necessary actions.
