Chapter 443 is finished; she's mastered it.
Regardless of whether there are monster sieges or not, the ultimate goal is to level up.
Chen You asked, "Do you still have that kind of thing that gives you gold coins to gain experience like last time?"
Hill paused.
She threw the towel back on the table, leaned forward, and whispered in front of Chen You.
"Boss, the system is very sensitive right now," Hill said, staring into Chen You's eyes. "You don't want the system to restart again, do you?"
Chen You leaned back in his chair and squinted.
Why does this sound so familiar?
It sounds like a classic line from some kind of NTR storyline, but now it's coming out of an NPC's mouth.
"Don't give me that." Chen You took out a gold coin and twirled it between his fingers.
"I'm just asking if it exists. Rules are rules, but people are flexible."
"Your Supreme Restaurant is an open business; you can't just turn away money that's offered to you."
Hill's gaze followed the gold coins.
She swallowed hard, forcing herself to look away.
"There really aren't any items that directly boost experience anymore," Hill said, spreading his hands in a helpless tone.
"The system's underlying logic has locked the channel for directly purchasing experience points. The previous issue was a vulnerability, which has already been patched."
Even if you moved Kingsoft to your location, I still couldn't conjure up experience for you.
Chen You stopped flipping the gold coins.
He slammed the gold coin on the table, making a crisp sound.
"Buying it directly won't work." Chen You leaned forward, getting closer to Hill. "Is there any... special lottery? The kind that can be manipulated?"
Chen You emphasized the pronunciation of the word "operation".
Hill's eyes flickered.
She picked up the crystal plate on the table and ran her fingers across it a few times.
"Boss, you're putting me in a difficult position," Hill sighed, his brow furrowed.
It's difficult, but that means it's doable!
Chen You didn't say anything, but directly opened the backpack panel and extracted 100,000 gold coins this time.
Gold coins appeared out of thin air, landing on the table and piling up into a small mountain.
The golden light instantly illuminated Hill's oil-stained face.
"Can you do it?" Chen You asked.
Hill stared at the pile of gold coins, his breathing becoming rapid.
"We can give it a try." Hill lowered his voice, his tone becoming extremely serious.
"But this opportunity only comes once, and I can't guarantee the outcome; it all depends on the system's judgment."
Chen You nodded. "How do we draw?"
Hill turned around and walked to the slot machine that she had kicked flat.
She bent down and rummaged through a pile of parts, the clanging of metal echoing in the empty hall.
A moment later, she pulled out a palm-sized black metal box.
The metal box has no patterns on its surface, only a red button and a small screen.
Hill walked back to the table and placed the metal box in front of Chen You.
"The portable version of 'Roulette of Fortune'," Hill said, pointing to the red button. "One press costs 10,000 gold coins."
"It's filled with various high-dimensional rewards from the Origin Realm, including but not limited to huge amounts of experience, mythical items, and even hidden quest clues you might want."
Chen You stared at the simple box.
"That's it?" Chen You asked. "Not even any special effects? I spent 10,000 gold coins, and you won't even show me any lighting or shadow effects?"
"High-end ingredients often only require the simplest cooking methods," Hill said seriously.
"To prevent energy overflow from attracting onlookers, I deliberately blocked all visual effects."
"Just press the button, the full meaning is in the data."
Chen You directly transferred 10,000 gold coins into the metal box.
The metal box received the gold coins, and the screen lit up instantly, displaying a green progress bar.
Below the progress bar is a line of small text: Current progress of drawing rewards from the pool.
Chen You extended his index finger and pressed the red button.
The progress bar on the screen suddenly shot forward.
10%, 50%, 80%...
The green light spread rapidly across the screen, almost filling the entire strip.
The progress bar abruptly stopped at 99%.
Two words popped up in the center of the screen: What a pity, we were just 1% away from success.
Chen You was stunned.
He pointed at the screen and looked at Hill.
"What does this mean?"
Hill remained unfazed, even offering a congratulatory expression.
"Boss, this is called 'the final push,' which means you're extremely lucky. You touched the edge of the core reward on your very first try."
"Just a little more effort and the reward is yours."
Chen You frowned.
Ten thousand gold coins bought me 99% of loneliness.
He transferred another 10,000 gold coins and pressed the button.
The progress bar flashed again.
This time, it didn't leap forward as dramatically as before, but only moved forward by an extremely small amount.
The screen displays: 0.5% difference.
Chen You's finger froze in mid-air.
"0.5%?" Chen You's voice rose. "A 0.5% increase on 10,000 gold coins?"
Hill clasped his hands in front of him, maintaining an impeccably professional smile.
"Boss, the barriers to higher-dimensional rewards are very strong. The higher you go, the more energy you need."
"This means you're closer to success. You've broken through this barrier, and the rewards inside are absolutely worth it."
Chen You gritted his teeth.
That familiar feeling of being manipulated by data washes over me.
"Alright, I'd like to see just how sturdy it is." Chen You transferred 20,000 gold coins and pressed the button twice.
The metal box emitted a slight humming sound.
The screen flickered continuously.
0.2% difference.
0.1% difference.
Chen You slammed his hand on the table, making the metal box jump.
"Are you trying to play knife-fighting with me?" Chen You pointed at Hill's nose.
"They've already released 0.1? Is the next step going to be gold coin fragments? And the next step after that, is a withdrawal cheat code?"
Hill took a half step back, dodging Chen You's fingers.
"Boss, don't worry! That's how the system algorithm is set up," Hill quickly explained. "What you taught me before is called 'sunk cost'."
"You've already drawn 99.9% of the way. If you give up now, all 40,000 gold coins you've already spent will be wasted. Are you willing to accept that?"
Chen You took a deep breath.
"The last time."
The fifth 10,000 gold coins were put in.
"bite."
The system notification sounded abruptly.
The image on the metal box screen changed.
The green progress bar disappeared, replaced by a large red exclamation mark.
A scrolling message appears below: "Gold coin draw attempts have reached the limit. Please invite other adventurers to help you complete the remaining progress."
Chen You stared at that line of text for a full ten seconds.
The hall was silent.
He slowly turned his head and looked at Hill.
Hill avoided Chen You's gaze, looking down at the stains on his work boots, pretending not to notice Chen You's murderous aura.
"Invite other adventurers to help?" Chen You read the words on the screen word by word. "You came up with that?"
Hill looked up, revealing an innocent and helpless expression.
"Boss, the system restricts the flow of funds for a single user. To bypass this restriction, I have to add a 'social interaction' module to the underlying logic."
Hill spread his hands. "Many hands make light work, and this is also to increase the activity level of the Source Realm."
