Chapter 386: Buggy: Is Having Good Luck a Crime?

"Everyone, don't just focus on Caomao Lufei; there's also Buggy. I've felt something was off for a long time..."

Raikage Ai's expression was gloomy. He had just spent 20,000 Reward Points on a pet draw, but only obtained one 【Shidan (D)】 that could increase experience by 300.

Although it wasn't a total loss, his luck was indeed very poor.

"Could it be that because I hired the infamous 'fat sheep' Tsunade when hunting the 【Zombie Butcher】, my luck has also turned bad?"

After the exploration mission was initiated,

Cloud Village dispatched two thousand ninja players as a vanguard to conduct carpet-style intelligence gathering on the Zombie World.

They investigated several Golden-level zombies, and even a Dark Gold-level Zombie Butcher.

Even at Lv. 21, the Cloud Village players suffered heavy casualties and could only spend a massive amount of Reward Points to hire Tsunade.

The other party could be said to be the strongest Paladin in the Samsara Game currently, and with a talent tree leaning toward healing, she greatly reduced Cloud Village's casualties.

However,

Tsunade had a penchant for gambling, and her reputation for losing every bet was very loud.

So much so that Raikage Ai felt he was being interfered with by her. Feeling angry but having nowhere to vent, he was like a rampaging troll, biting at anyone he caught.

"The Clan Head of the Desert Circus, Buggy the Clown—I felt something was wrong back when equipment was being forged!"

"When other players forge equipment, the success rate is never high; the screen is full of failures..."

"But for him, the failure rate for forging is very low!"

Reinforcement, forging, gem inlaying,

Including the Pet System.

Fang Yi wanted to increase player interaction, so once forging, reinforcement, or gem inlaying reached a relatively high level, it would be broadcast on the game channel.

Unexpectedly, Raikage was so meticulous that he even remembered the records from when Buggy was forging.

"If forging could be called good luck, how do you explain this now?"

Raikage kept leaving messages in a fit of rage.

Putting a bounty on Caomao Lufei wasn't enough to vent his anger; he even wanted to drag the person ranked first on the Pet Ranking into the battlefield.

"I spent a full 400,000 Reward Points, and it was all scattered zombie materials, but Buggy already possesses two pieces of pet equipment. This can't still be luck, right?"

The players were astonished. Upon hearing this, they began to scroll through the history of the game channel's broadcasts.

They discovered that they couldn't find a single record of Buggy doing a 【Ten-Consecutive Draw】! In other words,

While most players had exhausted their assets and hadn't even encountered high-grade goods during ten-consecutive draws, Buggy the Clown had actually obtained a B-Grade Pet Egg and two pieces of pet equipment from single draws. And looking at the score on the Pet Ranking, there should also be items related to pet skills.

Envy, jealousy... and anger! Even players who hadn't noticed the details before had their mindsets changed after being reminded by the meticulous Raikage Ai.

It wouldn't matter if everyone was being scammed,

But why were you the only one showing off?

Before the players could even denounce him, Buggy's arrogant message already popped up.

"Blame me? It's all you losers whose luck is too bad. Master Buggy will soon be able to collect a full set of pet equipment. When that time comes, with a god-tier pet in hand, I'll laugh at the sour..."

It came to an abrupt halt.

Crocodile's expression was ugly. He wanted to stop Buggy from attracting aggro, but he was still a step too late.

Sure enough,

This sentence directly ignited the players' fury. On the Mercenary System's ranking list, a bounty for the Desert Circus Clan Head appeared.

It was higher than Caomao Lufei's: 80,000 Reward Points.

"These sour dogs are just jealous that Master Buggy has good luck!"

Seeing the bounty order, Buggy jumped in anger and cursed repeatedly.

Sand Crocodile bit his cigar in half and sighed, "When hunting pollution zombies recently, cover your face, especially your red nose. Don't implicate the other members of the family."

"Sour dogs, all sour dogs!"

Watching the wailing game channel, the white-haired loli said worriedly, "Master, everyone is complaining because of the pet draw. They shouldn't continue to draw, wasting Reward Points in vain."

"Quite the opposite."

Fang Yi curled his lips and shook his head with a smile, "The complaints are because they are green with envy; next, they will only become more frantic."

If there hadn't been a player with good luck like Buggy,

After a period of time, the enthusiasm for pet draws would inevitably fade.

However, when players watched Buggy's single-draw miracle with their own eyes, no one could sit still, and the flames of desire in their hearts would be stirred up.

Moreover, 【Ten-Consecutive Draw Pity】 and the 【Furnace】 were there to provide psychological comfort to the players.

Even if they only drew trash materials, they could continuously smelt them to obtain rare items.

Fang Yi chuckled, "Besides, top-tier players will soon realize the key importance of game pets."

The reason the Polluted Continent could swallow countless worlds with unstoppable force was because of the powerful attributes of the Pollution Monsters.

For example, Sarutobi Hiruzen, known as the Ninja Hero and proficient in five types of elemental ninjutsu, who could serve as the Shadow of the strongest Ninja Village, was definitely a leader among ninjas.

However,

Placed in the Polluted Continent, he would only be at the Commander Level.

Senju Hashirama and Madara Uchiha, the peak combat power nurtured by the origin of the entire ninja world, were only at the Golden-level strength.

An average ninja could at most contend with ordinary Pollution Monsters,

But they had a huge disadvantage in numbers.

It wasn't until the appearance of the Samsara Game that a ninja who could only barely contend with ordinary Pollution Monsters could continuously exchange for skills to reach the combat power to hunt Commander-level monsters.

And then, through means like wearing equipment, forging, and reinforcement, possess strength surpassing Golden-level monsters.

Following that,

It is a game pet; a Rare-grade pet cultivated to the end can provide Reinforcement to the player themselves, allowing the player to reach Dark Gold-grade combat power.

This is Fang Yi's goal.

As long as one continuously hunts Pollution Monsters and gathers more and more Reward Points, even the weakest Genin can grow to the level of fighting against Dark Gold-grade monsters.

【Perfect Crafting】,

is the core for players to become beings that surpass the strongest polluted lifeforms.

Unlike the Polluted Continent, the strongest pollution forces and polluted lifeforms keep the path to transformation firmly in their own hands.

Without their authorization, even if an ordinary Pollution Monster keeps devouring and grows to the same level as the strongest polluted lifeform, it is still just cannon fodder that shatters at a single touch.

It is completely meaningless.

The Samsara Game is exactly the opposite; it completely hands the key to transformation over to the players, as long as they have sufficiently strong willpower and execution ability,

they can become infinitely stronger.

The white-haired girl sighed: "Buggy's luck is almost used up; there shouldn't be any more rewards that make people green with envy!"

At the end of the day, luck does not appear out of thin air, but is a gift from the World Consciousness.

Fang Yi could isolate the World Consciousness's gift of luck to Buggy,

but he did not do so.

Going with the flow to earn Origin, while also using Buggy as a target—just like the banners of lottery winners posted at a lottery shop—attracts more and more players' desire to draw prizes.

Other players who are also gifted luck by the World Consciousness,

include Uzumaki Naruto, and...

Hum.

Before Fang Yi's thoughts could finish, he sensed that a player had drawn a grand prize.

His gaze pierced through the spatial barrier and landed on Tsunade, who was clad in Silver Armor, with a dashing golden ponytail and exquisite features.

【Pet Egg (Mutant Zombie Baby)】

Quality: SS-ji

Hatching Progress: 0/2000 (Fill with zombie materials to increase hatching progress) Note: After mutation, the zombie baby has a high probability of gestating into a mature zombie with special attributes.

"And like Tsunade, who has a rather special gift of luck that only triggers when things around her suffer misfortune..."

Fang Yi shifted his gaze slightly,

seeing inside Konohagakure, the Clan Head and Shimura Danzo, draped in Monkey Skin, marching their troops into the Zombie World in unison, leaving the village empty.

And, the pretender who can finally let go and start plotting, Aizen.

A look of realization appeared in Fang Yi's eyes,

no wonder Tsunade could have such heaven-defying luck to draw an SS-ji Pet Egg, and a mutant one at that.

It seems Aizen is about to make a big move soon; this is feedback from the World Consciousness.
