Unreliable Sword Immortal

Chapter 4: What Is He Doing

Ten unreliable lottery tickets, ten different chances of winning. After careful study, Lu Chaoding discovered that seven of them were particularly unreliable, such as the one with a 99% chance of winning compressed biscuits. However, there were still three that seemed reliable.

The chances of winning for these three tickets were as follows: 80% chance of winning a two-star back accessory, significantly increased chance of winning a two-star weapon, and 88% chance of winning a fashion item.

"Is this not taking off?" Lu Chaoding was originally a fan of gacha mobile games, belonging to the type of player who doesn't spend money on in-game purchases. Whenever a popular gacha game was released, he would start playing it, sometimes even starting over a dozen times, all for the sake of pulling gacha and fantasizing about getting lucky.

"I'm going to pull gacha!" Lu Chaoding's heart was excited, but his face remained expressionless. He ignored the words of Zhao Weike and the other two, turned around on the spot, and walked away with big strides, as emotionless as a robot.

"Damn it, he ruined the good mood!" Seeing Lu Chaoding leave, Zhao Weike felt somewhat relieved. "Let's find another person and start over. Where are the other four? Are they still in the instance or did they go to the wilderness..."

"It seems like they went to the wilderness. I'll go find them!"

"Let's go together. This time, let's carefully observe and choose someone reliable!"

After Zhao Weike finished speaking, he led the way down the small path.

Meanwhile, Lu Chaoding walked with a sense of purpose and quickly arrived at the Destiny Platform.

At this moment, there was no one around the Destiny Platform. Without any hesitation, Lu Chaoding took out the ten unreliable lottery tickets and threw them into the air.

Buzz...

The clouds in the sky dispersed, as if brewing for a moment, and then eight white and two green beams of light shot through the air, landing near Lu Chaoding and transforming into eight white and two green orbs.

"There are two two-star items!"

Lu Chaoding rubbed his hands together and quickly approached to inspect the orbs. After popping the orbs, the names of the items quickly appeared.

"Compressed biscuits."

"Iron ingot."

"Steel ingot."

"Beef jerky."

"Two-star weapon! Peasant Sword!"

"One gold coin!"

"One-star fashion item! Sailor dress (female)!"

"Fresh apple."

"Fresh strawberries."

"Two-star back piece! Ghost-faced panel axe!"

"What is this? How can strawberries be drawn?"

Lu Chaoding directly threw the drawn strawberry into his mouth to show off, then inspected the items in front of him one by one, three of which caught his attention.

First was a large sword about 1.2 meters long. This large sword resembled an ancient bronze sword, with no fancy decorations, but with some grid-like patterns on the blade.

[Peasant Sword: Common two-star weapon, +30 attack power. Can be refined with various blood materials, currently refined to +0, no additional attributes. Can be refined up to three times, but please note that the weapon will be bound and cannot be traded after refinement.]

+30 attack power!

Three times the attack power of a beginner's wooden sword!

Although this Peasant Sword didn't have any additional effects, Lu Chaoding liked it very much. He immediately equipped the Peasant Sword and used Diffraction Sword Shadow. With a clang, three "Peasant Swords" hung behind him.

Lu Chaoding then looked at the drawn back piece. It was a short-handled large axe, with a axe face resembling a small basin, a shining silver blade, and a carved evil ghost mask on the back of the axe. The handle of the axe was short, with complex and somewhat ferocious patterns carved on it.

[Ghost-faced Panel Axe: Two-star back piece, when breaking the enemy's tenacity, deals an additional (200% of own attack power + 200) damage. Can be refined with Void-breaking Jade, currently refined to +0, no additional attributes. Can be refined up to three times, but please note that the weapon will be bound and cannot be traded after refinement.]

"What is this?"

Lu Chaoding's face was full of joy. He reached out and lightly tapped [Ghost-faced Panel Axe], selected to equip it, and this large axe immediately appeared on his back. It was truly a back piece, something that could be seen but not used.

"This axe is powerful. It directly adds damage when breaking tenacity, and it adds so much. If I equip the Peasant Sword, wouldn't breaking tenacity alone give me an additional damage of up to 280! Explosive output!"

Lu Chaoding felt delighted. At this moment, he looked at the third item of interest.

This thing made Lu Chaoding feel like spitting blood.

It was a set of fashion clothing, not just a dress, but also including underwear, a shirt, white stockings, and a pair of black high-heeled shoes. The dress had a blue collar and white sleeves with pleats, resembling a high school uniform from an anime. Surprisingly, it also had attributes: +1 speed, +1 defense!

Lu Chaoding selected to equip it on the information panel, and with a ding, the dress actually appeared on him.

"Oh my god, did I just crossdress?"

Lu Chaoding widened his eyes.

This rough man was wearing a dress!

He lifted the hem of the dress and saw the white stockings on his legs, as well as the size 43 women's black high-heeled shoes on his feet!

"It's actually quite comfortable..."

Lu Chaoding thought to himself that it was impossible for him to crossdress... unless it was in a situation where no one would find out. After all, this was a fashion item that could increase attributes. It shouldn't be embarrassing to use it when no one was around, right?

Just as he was about to take off the sailor dress, he saw Xiao Ning, a short-haired female player, staring at him not far away.

Lu Chaoding's expression froze, and he stopped moving.

Damn it, where did this person suddenly come from?

Why is this woman not doing dungeons or fighting monsters, but instead peeping on me?

Lu Chaoding felt like he was going to die of embarrassment on the spot.

"You, you, you..."

Xiao Ning pointed at Lu Chaoding, speechless for a while.

Lu Chaoding decided to act like a dead pig not afraid of boiling water. He forced himself to remain expressionless and took off the sailor dress, saying, "You just had an illusion. Everything you saw was fake!"

But Xiao Ning said, "Are you also a closed beta player? I saw the light of a ten-pull!"

Lu Chaoding shook his head and said, "I'm not."

"Why were you able to do a ten-pull if you're not a closed beta player? I saw the light of the lottery and came over. It must be you who was doing the lottery. Only closed beta players can do a ten-pull at the beginning, so just admit it."

"Fine, I'm a closed beta player. Goodbye!"

Lu Chaoding didn't want to argue with the female player. He thought for a moment and headed towards the Lion's Den dungeon again.

Now that the unreliable lottery tickets were used up, he couldn't waste any more time. He should actively explore the newbie village to improve his own strength.

He also wanted to quickly get away from this female player who was "peeping" at him changing clothes.

However, Xiao Ning followed him and said, "Are you a pro player? You chose Sword Immortal. Is there any special meaning behind it? As a closed beta expert, can you guide me?"

Lu Chaoding thought to himself, why is this girl alone? Where are her companions? Why is she following me? Do I really look like a pro player?

"Usually, the more you explain in this kind of situation, the less clear it becomes. It's better to say nothing and have a cold expression. When she gets bored, she will leave on her own!"

Lu Chaoding silently pondered. He was slightly uncomfortable with Xiao Ning following him like this.

Soon, Lu Chaoding arrived at the entrance of the Blood Boiling Lion's Den, and only then did he start to seriously study the information about this dungeon.

=====

Dungeon Name: Blood Boiling Lion's Den (First Floor)

Required Level: Less than LV3

Number of Players in a Team: 1~4

Dungeon Description 1: This is the lowest level dungeon in the Blood Boiling Lion Mountain.

Dungeon Description 2: One day later, the tutorial dungeon will be cancelled, the Blood Boiling Lion's Den will return to normal, and the second floor will be unlocked.

=====

"Zhao Weike kicked me out, so now I'm soloing this Lion's Den. If I can't clear it, I can still get rewards. Isn't that great?"

Lu Chaoding thought about it and didn't care about Xiao Ning next to him. He rushed into the Lion's Den.

Immediately, he heard a system prompt: "Ding, enter the tutorial dungeon Lion's Den (First Floor), receive the dungeon quest: Kill the Blood Boiling Lion Dog, clear the first floor of the Lion's Den, reward: 1 gold yuan, 10 cultivation points, 1 lottery ticket!"

"Ding, occasionally unreliable system activated, updating tracking quest, modifying quest content: Kill the Blood Boiling Lion Dog, fail to clear the first floor of the Lion's Den, penalty: -10 gold yuan, +100 cultivation points, -10 unreliable lottery tickets!"

"What the hell, the unreliable system is unreliable again. It randomly modifies the quest content and rewards after I accept the quest, just like the unreliable lottery tickets, emphasizing uncertainty."

"If that's the case..."

Lu Chaoding had a thought. He suddenly turned around and ran out of the Lion's Den.

In the next moment, he returned to the entrance of the dungeon, almost bumping into Xiao Ning.

"Ding, you have left the Lion's Den. Do you want to abandon the current quest?"

"Abandon!"

Lu Chaoding immediately responded to the system.

At this point, Xiao Ning was a bit confused and asked, "Pro, what are you doing? Can you take me with you?"

Lu Chaoding didn't say a word, turned his head, and rushed back into the Lion's Den.

"Ding, enter the tutorial dungeon Lion's Den (First Floor), receive the dungeon quest: Kill the Blood Boiling Lion Dog, clear the first floor of the Lion's Den, reward: 1 gold yuan, 10 cultivation points, 1 lottery ticket!"

"Ding, occasionally unreliable system activated, updating tracking quest, modifying quest content: Kill the Blood Boiling Lion Dog, fail to clear the first floor of the Lion's Den, reward: -10 gold yuan, +100 cultivation points, -1 unreliable lottery ticket!"

"It changed again!"

Lu Chaoding was overjoyed and quickly rushed out of the Lion's Den again.

He wanted to farm quests!

Since every dungeon quest would be randomly modified, he decided to farm one with low difficulty and rich rewards.

So, Lu Chaoding kept going in and out of the entrance of the Lion's Den, enjoying himself.

Xiao Ning was dumbfounded.

Is this guy an idiot?

What is he doing?
