Chapter 189 The Gap Between People
As everyone knows, playing all-in is a form of wisdom.
No child cries every day, and no gambler loses every day!
Beat a fight, bike change bike!
Therefore, the small portion of the prize pool that was shown was clearly a prop specifically designed to cater to Riley's personal preferences.
Riley first scoffed and laughed, then pointed with his finger as if channeling Donnie Yen.
...Then, without even blinking, another 10,000 points were deposited.
Unfortunately, Riley's extremely unlucky and unlucky nature continued to perform consistently.
Even though the guaranteed minimum was triggered, this lousy and unscrupulous system didn't give out any early rewards like miHoYo did. It forced Riley to accumulate a full 100 points of luck before the golden light appeared!
What's even more frustrating is that this guaranteed reward isn't one of the items shown before...
It's the Lost Driver from Kamen Rider W, and the matching Trigger Memory.
Yes, Riley admits, the official Kamen Rider belt is indeed very cool.
The problem is, the stats for the Kamen Rider W series are nowhere near those of Riley's current stats...
Even when Riley first became Spider-Man, with a strength rating of nearly 100 tons, he could easily crush them!
Not to mention, this Lost Driver, designed for single-person transformation, can only accommodate one memory module! The stats need to be halved again!
In this scenario, assuming that Riley uses this belt, like Takumi, his original stats will be forcibly overwritten due to the transformation effect...
Wouldn't that become a limiter that does more harm than good?
This is outrageous!
So much so that he looked at the belt that had appeared out of nowhere in his storage space.
As Riley's lips twitched, the cold reality once again extinguished his gambling spirit.
Oh well, anyway, this guaranteed minimum only cost me 10,000 points.
Just like the previous guaranteed minimum after halving the points consumption, in essence, there was no loss; in fact, a small profit was made.
So, I'll just consider it a way to make up for the lack of something in my childhood and get myself a "new toy".
It's not a bad idea to take it out and transform it for fun when I have some free time...
Thinking this, Riley comforted himself while once again considering staying away from the lottery, this bottomless pit.
However, as the saying goes, everything is difficult at the beginning.
It's not easy to get some points... oops, I mean, opportunities to serve the host, and if you miss this chance, you'll most likely be permanently benched. So, the system is going to great lengths to avoid letting Riley, this "leek," slip away, showing exceptional enthusiasm.
Another pop-up window appeared, prompting Riley that if she was not satisfied with her lottery results, she could choose to import the lottery interface to her phone and have someone else draw the lottery for her.
Besides, the person who draws the item for you can only see a thumbnail of the item, but not the specific information about it. Furthermore, the item you draw will still be directly sent to Riley's storage space. So there's no need to worry about having someone draw for you revealing the system's existence.
They offer a minimum guaranteed payout system, as well as a proxy draw service...
The familiar scene made Riley increasingly suspicious that this dream-fulfilling redemption system might actually be a product created by miHoYo from some parallel universe.
Oh, no, that's not right either. If it really was Mihoyo who did it...
The system shouldn't be called "Dream Redemption"; it should be renamed "Professional Knife-Slaying System."
But no matter what, having someone else draw the lottery for you will always result in a much better outcome than doing it yourself.
So after thinking it over, Riley decided to try his luck with one last 20,000 points.
Following the system's instructions, Riley successfully loaded the lottery function onto his phone, then waved and called out to the two little jades.
"Tired from playing, Xiaoyu? Come on, all of you... I have some good stuff here, you know?"
"Wow, is that a new game?"
"Even more exciting than a new game!"
As if possessed by Jay, Riley beckoned both girls to him. Then, while handing his phone to them, he half-jokingly and half-seriously tried to fool the two little girls.
"The scientists in District 13 have been worrying about which direction to take for their research lately... So, I created a lottery simulator and put in every idea I could think of. Want to give it a try? Drawing the gold one will decide District 13's next research project!"
"So, in other words, I can finally officially participate in the operations of District 13 and become a part of District 13?"
"Hmm, theoretically speaking... you could say that! But for official positions, we'll have to wait until you're a bit older."
"Awesome! I'm a superhero trainee now! I'll go first! I'll go first!"
Fortunately, Jade has always believed Riley without question.
And Riley wasn't entirely fooling her.
After all, in Riley's mind, Jade from the future timeline had indeed joined District 13.
He even rose through the ranks, succeeding Sheriff Black at a young age to become the new sheriff of District 13.
This allowed Riley to make his promise to Jade without batting an eye or losing his composure.
Having received Riley's promise, Xiaoyu, without any suspicion, took Riley's phone amidst her joyful cheers.
Then, Hei Xiaoyu and Riley both gathered around Xiaoyu to watch, and unknowingly, they began their first proxy lottery business.
"Wow! Looks like I'm in luck today! Hey Riley, what's this thing that looks like a camera for?"
Well, the good news is that Xiaoyu has won gold.
The bad news is that Xiaoyu, who is favored by both righteous and evil forces and can be called the chosen one of destiny, got a gold item on her first single draw.
It's still a prize from the ultimate gacha pool.
So much so that he looked at the gleaming magenta belt in the prize section.
What Xiaoyu said out of mere curiosity now sounds like Versailles-style boasting.
Riley's face immediately scrunched up, looking as sour as lemons.
No, is this reasonable?
Even if there are some differences between people...
But this is just the beginning!
A single pull! Just a single pull!
They just pulled out Brother Xiaoming's belt right away. Could they have gone any further?
Are you my system or Xiaoyu's system?! You can't be this biased!
Hey, hehe, you have to be happy when you're doing a lottery...
I'll slap you—!!!
It is precisely because the difference between the unlucky and the lucky is so stark...
Riley, who was able to calmly deal with any crisis and always maintain a stable mindset, has completely lost his composure!
So much so that Riley didn't notice...
Actually, he really wronged the system.
As the saying goes, anything produced by the system is bound to be of high quality.
Riley painstakingly pulled the pity system to finally get the Lost Driver, and everything seemed normal...
However, upon closer inspection, it becomes apparent that the trigger memory provided by the system is not the blue one from the original work, but rather entirely purple. Even the thumbnail on the front of the memory is no longer shaped like a small pistol…
Clearly, in order to retain Riley as a "leek" (a term for someone easily exploited), the system deliberately modified the prizes.
The reason this set of equipment deserves its high value isn't primarily due to the belt, but rather the relatively insignificant Trigger Memory.
