Apocalypse: System of lotteries

"Damn!"

Ming exclaimed, shocked by the Emperor-level earthworm's self-explosion when its defense value reached zero, which was like a stinky mud nuclear bomb. He originally planned to reduce its defense to a single-digit value, then snipe it from a distance. However, Little Bear appeared once again, directly destroying his plan and reducing the earthworm's defense value to zero.

The self-explosion of the Emperor-level earthworm was too brutal, completely shattering his 10,000-durability tent.

Splat! Stinky mud suddenly fell from the sky...

Under the night sky, Little Bear held an umbrella while Ming was covered in stinky mud...

The former licked its bear paw, while the latter hung his head and slumped his shoulders... Time seemed to stand still, and the atmosphere was silent...

"..."

Ding~ Gained 20,000 experience points and 1,000 gold coins.

Ding~ Triggered the Frog's Unexpected Delight, increasing the loot drop rate to 1000%.

Buzz~

A golden light soared into the sky, followed closely by two orange lights.

"Long-lost Unexpected Delight!" Ming shook off the stinky mud on his body and laughed. One gold and two oranges were worth washing his clothes again. He looked around Little Bear and asked, "The spiked cards at the entrance didn't hurt you?"

On second thought, this creature could dodge while carrying him during the metal spike explosion, so the few cards he left behind probably wouldn't have any effect on it.

[Global Broadcast, congratulations to Ming for being the first survivor to defeat an Emperor-level BOSS in the Doomsday Game, gaining the title [Emperor-level First Blood]. As a celebration, all attributes of survivors worldwide are increased by 20% for 72 hours, Ming does not enjoy this shared happiness.]

[…]

"I don't even know what an Emperor-level looks like."

"What did I say? Since Ming dares to take on hidden missions, it means he can definitely breakthrough. With the shared BUFF, it will be so easy to form a team and defeat that four-star King-level boss tomorrow!"

"You guys didn't notice that killing the Emperor-level BOSS is not the same as completing the hidden mission? However, having said that killing an Emperor-level BOSS and still not completing the hidden mission, this mission is really difficult!"

"If it were easy, Ming wouldn't bother to accept it."

"…"

[Global Fast News, Ming's hidden mission is still ongoing. Please stay tuned for Rule News updates.]

"…"

Half an hour later, Ming sat on a sofa beside the basement fireplace, still drying his freshly washed clothes first. He took out the cards dropped by the Emperor-level earthworm, one gold:

[Exclusive Talent: Stinky Mud Stomach. With it, you can eat and store a lot of stinky mud. Humans can learn it too, highly recommended!]

He would never learn this crappy talent. What a piece of junk. but If Foodie learned it... No, Frog couldn't do such a thing. Better save it for now.

Two oranges:

[Exclusive Skill: Stinky Mud Blast. Humans can learn it too, but there will be side effects.]

"Go to the warehouse and stay there."

Ming threw the skill into the warehouse, where there was now a Catfish Suction along with this Stinky Mud Blast. Truly a perfect combination of inhalation and exhalation.

The other orange card was exactly what he needed:

[Emperor-level Blood Token*1]

"Finally, I can advance my level."

Ming opened the class advancement interface:

[Third Class Advancement: Shadow Hunter]

[Requirement 1, reach level 40: Completed]

[Requirement 2, Emperor-level Blood Token1, King-level Blood Token2, Lord-level Blood Token*4: Completed]

[Would you like to advance your level?]

"Yes!"

Ming chose to advance his level.

[Class advancement successful, unlocking the third awakened talent]

[Talent rolling...rolling...slowly rolling...]

[Awakening successful...Acquired: Archer's Soul]

"…"

"Archer's Soul?"

Ming checked:

[Soul of the Archer]

[1. Increase bow and crossbow power by 1.25 times]

[2. Increase bow and crossbow armor penetration by 1.25 times]

[3. Increase bow and crossbow durability by 1.25 times]

"Nice." Ming suddenly remembered that he was a long-range archer. The increased durability was great, which would save him a lot of repair scrolls.

It suited his style—saving money.

"Check secondary profession." Ming opened the attribute panel, and the secondary profession panel finally appeared.

[Please choose one of the following nine professions as your first secondary profession]

[Nine professions]

"Puppeteer!"

Ming didn't hesitate at all. He had been planning this for a long time. If he didn't clean up the zombies and mutated creatures in his warehouse soon, there would be no room left.

[Advance to secondary profession Puppeteer]

[Requirement 1: Submit a zombie or mutated creature, not completed]

[Requirement 2: Submit 500 spirit energy and 5000 gold coins, not completed]

[Requirement 3: Submit 2 Lord-level Blood Tokens and 1 King-level Blood Token]

[Requirement 4: Reach level 40, completed]

"This... is pretty simple." Ming checked his warehouse and submitted a zombie, gold coins, spirit energy, and Blood Tokens.

[Congratulations on successfully completing the requirements for the Puppeteer secondary profession]

[Obtained Puppeteer basic spirit abilities: 1. Spirit Bridge; 2. Remove Bridge.]

[Obtained Puppeteer basic puppet slots: 5]

[Puppeteer secondary profession advancement successful, awakening talent]

[Talent rolling... fast rolling... continuous rolling...]

[Awakening successful... Acquired: Puppet Master]

"…"

"Puppet Master?"

Checked:

[Puppet Master: If your spirit attribute is higher than the spirit attribute of the puppet you are bridging to, it will not have any abnormal rebellion]

"This is... pretty good." Ming felt that this talent was excellent. With it, he wouldn't have to worry about backlash anymore.

"Now, start the bridging."

"Who should I start with?" Ming was a little indecisive. His secondary profession as a Puppeteer only had 5 puppet slots for the first advancement, meaning that he could control up to 5 puppets at most.

"Such a hard choice~"

"Who should it be?"

"It's you!" Ming stood up and threw out an attractive figure.

[Your froggies are playing with the little bear when they suddenly see you throw out a zombie. The froggies stop the little bear who wants to fight, saying, "Don't get excited, that's Ming's wife, Wendy..."]

[The froggies watch you go forward, go around to Wendy's back, and hold her hands... Your froggies think that treating your wife like this is not right... You need to be gentle...]

[The froggies watch you give Wendy an injection, and she obediently lies down on the ground... Your froggies think that you're resorting to any means necessary to achieve your goal, which is simply perverted...]

[Your froggies watch you place your hand on Wendy's head... The froggies are very disappointed and angry. After all this effort, was it just to touch her head? ]

"Bridging successful!" Ming stepped back and looked at Wendy: "Squat down~ Stand up~ Walk two steps~"
