Rule 1: Within twenty-four hours, the turntable can only be spun three times. At midnight each day, the usage count will reset to zero.
Rule 2: If one is willing to offer a fragment of the God Stone, a penalty can be removed from the turntable and a reward can be added.
Note: As this item is not owned by the possessor, the turntable can only be spun once, and God Stone fragments cannot be used to remove penalties or add rewards.
Loki's Gashapon Machine…
Loki's Lucky Turntable…
These two items are from the Trickster God series, and their rules are similar. In fact, in his previous life, Bai Ye had the opportunity to obtain Loki's Lucky Turntable.
At that time, after Bai Ye completed the mission, he had three options as a reward.
They were Loki's Gashapon Machine, Loki's Lucky Turntable, and Loki's Dice.
Ultimately, Bai Ye chose Loki's Gashapon Machine.
However, although the gameplay is similar, the nature of the Gashapon Machine and the Lucky Turntable is different.
The Gashapon Machine can dispense various items from capsules, while the Lucky Turntable does not. Instead, it provides buffs and debuffs.
The entire turntable has 108 spaces, with 72 reward spaces and 36 penalty spaces. Simply put, there is a two-thirds probability of receiving a reward and a one-third probability of receiving a penalty. Both rewards and penalties are divided into three levels, with level three being the weakest and level one being the strongest.
From a probabilistic standpoint, it's quite worth a gamble. However, it's not that simple.
This is because not all buffs are useful. For instance, buffs to physical attributes are definitely useful. But sometimes, it might enhance abilities. If an ability like the Poison-Poison Fruit receives a buff, it would be great. But what if it's a white-quality ability?
A white-quality ability becomes green quality…
Is that meaningful?
This was also the reason why Bai Ye gave up on the Lucky Turntable in his previous life.
At that time, Bai Ye had no memories of his rebirth, and he was not as focused on acquiring specific items and abilities. In the early stages, as long as he could become stronger, Bai Ye would do anything. Therefore, he accumulated a large number of miscellaneous items and abilities. The probability of being swindled by the Lucky Turntable was too high.
He never expected to see this thing again in this life.
As Bai Ye pondered, he reached out and grasped the turntable, giving it a forceful spin.
Since it wasn't an owned item, Bai Ye only had one chance to spin the turntable and couldn't use God Stone fragments. There was nothing else to consider, so he spun it!
The turntable made a clacking sound, its speed decreasing from fast to slow, and soon it gradually came to a stop.
"Randomly enhance the quality of one ability."
Looking at the stopped turntable, Bai Ye's face lit up with joy.
He had three abilities: Paper God, Phoenix, and Poison-Poison Fruit.
The best outcome would be for the Poison-Poison Fruit, and the worst for Paper God. Moreover, even if Paper God was enhanced…
Actually, the Paper God ability wasn't bad; it was just a bit troublesome to use. Bai Ye didn't have many decks of playing cards left. Secondly, Bai Ye possessed the Seven-Colored Rainbow Flying Sword, which had a similar combat effect to flying playing cards. Thus, the Paper God ability wasn't very necessary, and the flying sword's power was even greater.
Therefore, the Paper God ability was somewhat redundant, but it occasionally had unexpected effects.
For example, during the Twelve Great Battles.
Then…
"Your Phoenix has been temporarily upgraded to Black quality, and you have temporarily gained a new ability: Flame Burst."
Flame Burst: Can detonate Phoenix Flame at any time, causing secondary damage.
Bai Ye was speechless. One-third of the probability had gone awry.
However, it didn't go awry on Paper God, but on Phoenix…
It was passable!
Not entirely satisfied, but not entirely dissatisfied either.
"I'll make do with it!"
Bai Ye casually put the item away. Although the item was still there, he could no longer spin it again.
Having finished with the Gashapon Machine, Bai Ye stretched his muscles. His wounds had healed, but his body still felt somewhat uncomfortable. After resting for a while longer, he should be able to recover to his normal combat level.
"It's so boring just waiting," Bai Ye muttered. "Should I write a letter to Jinsha for fun?"
Bai Ye summoned a white dove from his inventory.
Carrier Pigeon (Item) (White): Can be used to write letters to a designated recipient, which will be delivered by the carrier pigeon.
Rule 1: The recipient must be someone the sender has met before.
Rule 2: Regardless of the distance or number of regions crossed, the carrier pigeon's delivery speed is 72 hours.
Rule 3: The carrier pigeon can be killed during delivery.
After completing the mission to help the penguin man rob the bank, in addition to sin points, he also received a bank card with three million yuan, usable only within the City of Sin. Additionally, he received a carrier pigeon.
The penguin man was skilled at training birds. Legend had it that all the birds in the City of Sin obeyed him. These birds were equivalent to the penguin man's eyes, allowing him to monitor everything within the City of Sin. Therefore, receiving the carrier pigeon did not surprise Bai Ye too much.
Although it was a white-quality item, communication items were too scarce, so the carrier pigeon was undoubtedly a good item. The 72-hour delivery time was a bit of a hassle, but what more could one expect from a white-quality item?
The requirement of having met the recipient before was also not an issue. If he was bored, why would he write to someone he hadn't met?
What truly annoyed Bai Ye was that the carrier pigeon could be killed during delivery.
Going to places like the Great Jungle of Jura was out of the question, as there were many flying monsters that would attack carrier pigeons. Besides, what if he encountered someone on the way who was craving roasted pigeon?
However, since he had obtained it, he wanted to try it out.
The problem was, what should he write?
"Have you eaten?"
"A day without seeing you feels like three autumns…"
"Hou Fei Hou, Wang Fei Wang, Jelly I eat Xizhi Lang…"
Bai Ye sighed and decided not to write the letter. He seemed to have nothing truly urgent to discuss with Jinsha.
Suddenly, his stomach rumbled. Bai Ye patted it and stretched his muscles again. His body seemed to have recovered somewhat. Bai Ye turned and put the carrier pigeon away, leaving the rooftop.
Taking the elevator out of the building, Bai Ye looked around at the brilliantly lit surroundings.
The City of Sin by day was a false City of Sin.
The City of Sin by night was the true City of Sin.
Real crimes began with the arrival of night. Moreover, the City of Sin at night was more of a mockery.
In those towering restaurants, wealthy people held parties and dances. The grand theaters were brightly lit, and in the nightclubs, people indulged in revelry every night.
However, just one street away, in the slums, a girl clutched her bag, trembling as she walked. Ferocious thugs broke into the home of an elderly person living alone, stealing everything in their house. Even the beggars on the street were not safe; even half a piece of bread, if not quickly consumed, would be snatched by others.
After midnight, there was no order in the City of Sin!
This was the City of Sin, a city whose existence was twisted, ironic, and a shameful nightmare.
