After completing the Upgrade Pack, the main event began.
Opening the System Mall, the interface changed to show rows of movies with prices:
The Ring (US version): 6,000,000 Fear Points
Ju-on: 8,800,000 Fear Points
Silent Hill: 4,800,000 Fear Points
Event Horizon: 3,200,000 Fear Points
The Ring (Japanese version): 8,800,000 Fear Points
The Unborn: 5,500,000 Fear Points
...
Seeing these prices, Lin Chen just wanted to say two words: No way!
They were outrageously expensive!
He thought with nearly 300,000 Fear Points, he could buy one or two films of Shutter's caliber. But with these multi-million price tags, he was devastated.
Clearly, getting Shutter as a Side Quest reward was pure luck.
Shutter's horror level is among the world's top ten, roughly on par with The Unborn, which costs 5.5 million Fear Points.
So unless by sheer luck, he couldn't imagine how else to get such films.
"Forget it. Shutter can keep running a while longer. Let's try the lottery!" Lin Chen said as he opened the lottery page.
The system interface changed to a colorful wheel with two buttons: "Start Draw" and "Double."
Lin Chen didn't immediately start and asked, "System, how many Fear Points does a draw cost?"
"Each draw costs 100,000 Fear Points."
One hundred thousand?!
He stroked his chin and asked, "What can I get from the lottery?"
The system answered, "Lottery rewards include rare items, skills, attribute points, etc."
Awesome!
Lin Chen immediately got interested and pointed at the double button, asking, "If I press double, do I get double rewards?"
"Choosing double increases the chance of good rewards by 1% for this draw."
"Can the double button stack?" Lin Chen's heart raced—if stacking was possible, 100 doubles would guarantee a good reward.
"Yes."
Smiling, Lin Chen was about to press it, but suddenly asked, "How many Fear Points per double?"
"Each double costs 100,000 Fear Points. Two doubles cost 200,000, and so on."
His hand froze.
He only had 290,000 Fear Points total. One double would cost 100,000...
Not worth it!
Looks like he had to be honest and just do the normal draw.
He sighed and pressed the draw button.
The wheel slowly spun and flashed dazzling lights.
The speed increased until it became a blur.
After ten seconds, the wheel stopped on a large white area.
System Prompt quietly sounded:
[System Prompt: Congratulations host on using Lottery Wheel, you got "Thanks for your patronage!"]
Lin Chen: ...??
Thanks for your patronage?!
He felt utterly screwed.
100,000 Fear Points just to get a "thanks for your patronage"? Who could bear this!
"System, why didn't you mention that the lottery can yield 'thanks for your patronage'?" Lin Chen questioned.
"You didn't ask."
Lin Chen was speechless.
He took a deep breath, composed himself, and asked, "What's the chance of getting 'thanks for your patronage'?"
"50%."
Fifty-fifty—less than he expected.
He still had 190,000 Fear Points, enough for another draw.
Rubbing his hands, he muttered, "Time to show my lucky star!
Lucky star, come to me, bad luck, get lost!"
He pressed the button again.
The wheel spun and flashed again.
His eyes glued to the wheel, heart pounding.
After ten seconds, the wheel stopped.
This time, the pointer moved past a large white area and finally stopped on a small purple section.
[System Prompt: Congratulations host on using Lottery Wheel, you obtained a Purple Skill!]
Purple skill?
Lin Chen was stunned but quickly exited the lottery interface.
Back on the main system page, he saw a new skill glowing purple in the skill bar—Yin-Yang Eye!
