“Thanks to all the book friends like Leng Qiu, Yi Ri Bu Ting, deepcccp, Leng Mo, Bai Zhan, Ren Jian, and many others, and thank you everyone for voting for Old Phantom.”
I have to say, when this golden light shone on the one-star roulette, the visual effect was dazzling.
Originally a rather ordinary roulette surface, it unexpectedly took on a few colorful effects.
However, in the eyes of the human survivors, it was the gaze of death.
But the following events made people forget all this and instead stirred up their inner greed.
After being illuminated by the golden light, the ten types of rewards on the one-star roulette were prominently magnified into the air. Each reward not only had a pattern but also an explanation of the situation of each prize next to it.
Among them, the five types of things unknown to humans were also marked with names and uses.
After seeing this, humans understood that these were prepared for sea beasts.
Many members of the Chinese faction looked at Ye Zhongming with a bit more admiration in their eyes.
You might think that once you know the answer, you could guess it if you think carefully, but what about when the answer hasn't been announced? At that moment, anyone who could accurately state the outcome definitely deserves respect.
Since this was a one-star roulette, the rewards on it didn’t cause too much of a stir. Among the five rewards known to humans, aside from a bottle of One-Star Evolution Elixir, there were a few other items. Their value was quite good for this level of roulette, but since humanity had already passed the first peak of evolution, most people, except for a few, weren't very interested.
On the contrary, the items specifically prepared for sea beasts attracted a lot of attention.
This included Ye Zhongming.
For example, one of the food items called "Hard Bone Gel Cookies" would enhance the hardness of mutated lifeforms' bones after use, benefiting those below level three.
There was also a substance called "Pleasure Grass," which could enhance the excitement level of mutated animals at certain moments, indirectly increasing their fertility rate.
There was even a more peculiar reward called "Water-Washing Pearl," which is a prosthetic eye that can replace the eyeball. After a mutated lifeform replaces its eye with this, it would gain some very special abilities.
In the mindset of the Chinese people, the body and its skin are given by their parents. Although this concept has been less discussed in recent years, it still lingers in the subconscious. Perhaps as the apocalypse deepens and survival pressures increase, this idea will change, but at least now, a year after the apocalypse began, many people are still influenced by this belief.
To ask humans to replace their healthy eyes with prosthetic ones is likely difficult for the vast majority to accept.
However, for mutated lifeforms, this situation is different; what they care about is whether they can become stronger. As for how to become stronger, that is not that important.
The five rewards exclusive to mutated lifeforms naturally caught the attention of the sea beasts. However, just like humans, these items had little use for high-level sea beasts. So even though no one knew how the Sea King Crown enabled them to understand the uses of these items, only a very small number of sea beasts showed some desire.
Once all present, both humans and sea beasts, saw what was on the roulette, the circular metal plate under the one-star roulette cloaked in golden light suddenly made a sound. Then, under the gaze of all lifeforms, the metal plate transformed into a cylindrical metal chamber.
“Defeat your opponent to enter the rotating chamber. The one-star roulette rotating chamber can be opened fifty times. Each time the chamber opens, the roulette can spin twice.”
The prompt appeared, and the information within left everyone deep in thought.
For any special roulette, the prompts are extremely useful. Understanding them thoroughly is very helpful for the upcoming decisions, which in turn will affect future gains and may even determine fate to some extent. The venue quieted down immediately after the prompt.
