The Dragon Run Homestead is not far from the fast hotel where the trio is staying. It takes just a few minutes to walk there, and they can even see the window of room 1107 from their resting quarters.
The room is very dimly lit, with only the glow of the colorful roulette providing some illumination. Everything that can be seen from outside has been covered with thick cloth.
Ye Zhongming took a deep breath to calm his slightly excited heart.
In front of him was a colorful roulette, a rainbow wheel, but two sections had already turned gray, and the profession spindle on top had been taken away.
At this moment, Ye Zhongming couldn’t help but recall the legend he heard in his previous life about this trio; they had once been extremely popular, only to vanish without a trace, likely because of this multi-colored roulette.
It cannot be denied that they had good luck, not only encountering a normal roulette with the Light Blade skill but also stumbling upon a colorful roulette specifically designed for professions.
"This guy is a bit special," Little Tiger exclaimed, his curiosity and excitement evident as he gazed at the colorful roulette.
Seeing their secret discovery being taken away like this, Brother Deng, Ali, and the now-awakened Little Tong were furious, with resentment flashing in Brother Deng's eyes from time to time.
In his view, Ye Zhongming was a thief, robbing him of what belonged to him.
People tend to think from their own perspective; especially when it comes to interests, they instinctively believe that any benefits related to them are theirs by right.
Indeed, the roulette was his discovery, and Ye Zhongming had robbed him, but were they really so noble? Didn't they also try to kill Ye Zhongming at Pearl Lake in order to seize the treasure? The only difference was that at that time they were in a position of advantage, and now they were at a disadvantage.
In the apocalypse, there are no rights or wrongs, only strengths and weaknesses.
"It seems we need to stay here for a while," Ye Zhongming mused, his gaze somewhat dreamy as he looked at the roulette.

Touching the smooth blade of the war knife, Little Tiger kept clicking his tongue, unable to part with this weapon.
Ye Zhongming finally couldn't stand it anymore and turned to say, "Can you keep it down? We're in an ambush, alright? What’s there to look at with a broken knife?"
Discovering the colorful roulette was just the first step; spinning the rainbow wheel requires a lot of magic crystals. Since Ye Zhongming had no intention of letting the two professional scrolls slip through his fingers, he naturally had to go hunt zombies.
"Broken knife?" Little Tiger's voice suddenly lifted, "You call this a broken knife? This is an unparalleled treasure! Did you see how it chops zombies? It's like cutting vegetables, leaving corpses all over the place..."
"Shut up!"
Ye Zhongming couldn't understand why such a good young man had developed a tendency to chatter.
"Brother Ye, the shapes of the two knives in your hands are similar. It can't just be a coincidence, right?" Little Tiger grinned and leaned in to ask.
Ye Zhongming nodded, "Profession. I have the craftsman profession, and both of these knives were forged by me."
Professions aren’t a top-secret matter; survivors will find out sooner or later. Since Little Tiger had entered his team with Mo Ye, there was no need to hide it from him.
"Is it that impressive?" Little Tiger scratched his head, clearly wanting to have a profession of his own.
"All professions have conditions. You'll understand once you have your own profession someday."
"When will I have a profession?" Little Tiger looked at Ye Zhongming and casually asked.
Ye Zhongming smiled, "You don’t need to beat around the bush. I can tell you plainly that there are two other professions available on that roulette. I’ll assign them based on the type of profession, and the principle of allocation is..."
