Starting with the Broken-Winged Frost Butterfly: Beast Taming

Chapter 97 Fate Reset

Zhu Ran remembered that the rules mentioned that there would be a penalty if someone guessed wrong.

But the teammate guessed correctly, and the punishment was reduced.

In other words, if all three members of the team guess incorrectly, each person will receive a die with a score of 9-12.

If one member of the team guesses correctly, the other two members who guess incorrectly receive 5-8 points—for example, the current Mountain Shattering Hammer and Azure Elephant Staff.

If two members of the team guess correctly and the remaining member guesses incorrectly, the team member who guesses incorrectly receives 1-4 points, such as Crocodile Sister.

"The Doom Dice cannot be used once; it must be used at the end of the game for final settlement."

The Four Seasons Kasaya said in a trembling voice, "The game usually goes through nine rounds."

"The more you lose, the stronger the curse of the final 'Ultimate Doom Dice' will be, to the point of driving you to despair —"

"Again!" the Azure Elephant Cudgel said sinisterly, "Losing just one round proves nothing! I need to get more lucky dice so that even if misfortune strikes again, I can still save my life!"

The dice of fate said calmly, "Round three, bet on odd or even, thirty-second countdown begins."

Thirty seconds later, the old magic mirror selected "single".

The only one that is the same as it is Qin Taozhi.

"Xiao Qin's luck is undeniable; he's truly blessed by heaven." Crocodile Sister exclaimed sincerely.

After losing two rounds in a row, she received two unlucky dice, but for some reason, she remained relatively calm.

Perhaps because the points are all between 1 and 4, with a bit of luck, the two together might be smaller than 5.

Or perhaps it's because the teammates were just too strong. Xiao Qin won all three of his bets, and Xiao Zhu did the same. This feeling of being carried to victory was incredibly exhilarating!

"In the fourth round, I'll still bet on odd or even."

"Round 5, betting on the color."

"Sixth round, betting on the direction."

"Seventh round, bet on the points."

The body of the Azure Elephant Staff grew increasingly dark and dull.

After seven rounds, it lost four out of ten!

In the seventh round, the three-headed beast was completely wiped out, and received a 9-12 bad luck die!

"It seems that today, I still can't break the cycle of always losing when I gamble —"

Cangxianggun gave a "bitter laugh," his voice hoarse, already tinged with a hint of despair.

"The Demon Lord has won seven games in a row!"

Four Seasons Robe only lost two rounds, but the bad luck dice in the seventh round terrified her. Her voice was thick with tears and confusion as she spoke: "The Demon King not only won't help us, but he also bullies us—what happened to the Origin Beasts—this is so unfair and outrageous—"

"Don't call me 'sir,' we're not acquainted."

The old magic mirror heard this and immediately responded, startling the Four Seasons Robe so much that it trembled again.

"Master Jing, you've opened it?"

Even Zhu Ran was dumbfounded. He could accept a small loss, after all, Qin Taozhi also lost in the seventh round and received a bad luck die.

On his side, seven pale gold lucky dice were spinning rapidly, creating an extremely stunning visual impact!

"I don't know, I was just playing around. Maybe I got lucky this time."

The old magic mirror was neither arrogant nor did it show any joy after winning the bet. Instead, Zhu Ran sensed a sense of boredom from its mental fluctuations.

Is this game too easy for it?

Or is it that it finds gambling on dice or something just boring from the bottom of its heart?

Zhu Ran didn't know how to answer.

The eighth round has begun.

"This time, you will choose one die for your opponent. Each team will choose three. If a die is selected, the opposing team will be declared the loser."

Zhu Ran was stunned. The rules were getting more and more absurd. It was a choice of 12, but there was a possibility of overlap with teammates. The opponent would only lose if the chosen teammate was selected.

The countdown has ended.

The old magic mirror selected "8".

Qin Tao selected "1".

Crocodile Sister chose "3".

There is no repetition, so there is a 3/12 chance, or a 1/4 chance, that the opponent will lose.

For the soldier/beast faction, "5", "3", and "12" were selected respectively.

The dice of fate spun, and under the tense and apprehensive gaze of the Azure Elephant Staff, slowly settled on "8".

"Fortune! Is that right? As long as the Demon Lord chooses the number, it's a guaranteed win?"

The Azure Elephant Staff couldn't hold back any longer. With the game at this point, no matter what happens in the final round, nothing major will happen to the human race.

But on their side, it and the Mountain Shattering Hammer are really fighting to the death. Maybe after the last round, it will be their death day.

"I can guarantee—the game will be absolutely fair—"

Faced with doubts, the Dice of Fate remained cheerful, neither angry nor bothered.

"In the ninth round, you bet on big or small and your fate is reset. The number of your lucky and unlucky dice may be exchanged." The Azure Elephant Staff suddenly went berserk.

Exchange quantity? Good becomes bad, bad becomes good?

Just one win can turn the tide and completely change your fate!

"We can't lose! We absolutely cannot lose this game!"

Zhu Ran considered taking advantage of a loophole, since the big dice had said that the lucky dice could be used at any time. If he used up the lucky dice first, wouldn't he be less afraid of the dice flipping over?

However, the ninth round was an exception, as all eight lucky stones were locked and could not be used at all.

"Won't Master Jing play around for half a day and then crash and burn? Is he really just incredibly lucky? I didn't see any similar description in the status update —"

Zhu Ran's nerves were on edge, and she couldn't help but let her mind wander.

"11 o'clock, big!"

"Congratulations, Azure Elephant Cudgel! You've triggered a reversal, and good fortune and misfortune have been swapped!"

"Hahahaha!" The Azure Elephant Cudgel was overjoyed when it saw the result and the black dice in front of it had all turned pale gold. It couldn't help but let out a long roar.

"Waaaaah, that scared me to death! I thought I was going to flip over too, thank goodness—thank goodness—"

Still shaken, Siji Jiasha clutched his collar, twisting it into a pretzel.

"Please use the Lucky Dice first. After you finish using it, the Unlucky Dice will be triggered automatically."

Guided by the Dice of Destiny, Zhu Ran merged with all the lucky dice, and a brilliant golden light shot into the sky.

Good fortune is coming your way, and blessings are descending from the heavens.

[When you are experiencing a period of bad luck, you will have three "absolute good luck" events, which will be triggered within seven days and will expire after that period.]

Zhu Ran slowly typed out a question mark.

What does the information crammed into your head mean?

He won eight out of nine games, only deliberately guessing wrong in the last one to avoid a comeback.

The result was something mysterious and vague?

"Fu'e, I don't understand what that means."

The dice of fate shook their faces, "Oneself—study—the secrets of heaven—must not be revealed—"

Zhu Ran's mind raced, and then he silently pulled out a sealed card.

"You say it's bad luck, then my first thought is that I was attacked and killed, but managed to escape from the jaws of death."

"Secondly, there are more abstract choices, such as sealing cards. The success rate of sealing beasts is extremely low, and if it's an A-level beast, it's as low as it can get —"

Zhu Ran muttered to himself, then suddenly threw the sealing card at the Dice of Fate, pouring all his mental energy into it: "Then let me ask you, when I forcibly subdue a beast that is also a king and has the attribute of fate, will the success rate drop to zero? And if it drops to zero, will it trigger absolute good luck?"

"Boom!"

In an instant, the upper layer of the earth cracked and the sky collapsed. The dice of fate burst forth with endless brilliant beams of light, covering the dome with the might of a god, unstoppable.
