They want you to participate in a TV show, and you'll be doing a live stream as a security guar

Ye Zhou lay on the sofa like an old man, swirling a half-glass of red wine between his fingers.

"system."

As soon as he finished speaking, a semi-transparent panel silently popped up in front of him.

Looking at the huge sum of 300,000, Ye Zhou was overwhelmed with excitement.

He had never been this rich before.

I've participated in prize draws before, and I'm always terrified of getting another "thank you for your patronage" message.

Now things are much better. I have more confidence and a stronger backbone. With such a large amount of emotional capital in my hands, there are so many things I can do.

Ye Zhou took a sip of red wine, opened the system shop, and swiped straight to the skills section.

His gaze swept across the rows of cards, and soon a skill card caught his eye: [Fishing Mastery].

He does know how to fish, but his skills are really bad. He comes home empty-handed four out of five times he goes fishing in the wild, and the last time he catches only small fry.

With his skill level, he'd need some external help to complete the fishing quest.

Ye Zhou has firsthand experience of the strengths of being proficient in combat and driving, so he can imagine that his fishing skills are probably not far behind.

Fishing Mastery

[150,000 Emotional Points]

Ye Zhou's lips twitched when he saw the price.

Goodness, this is more than twice as expensive as the complete set of "Dragon Raja".

However, Ye Zhou could understand it.

After all, once you have this skill, you can immediately become a top expert in the field.

It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that they had a cheat code that defied the heavens.

On second thought, he realized that getting the Fighting Mastery skill from the newbie gift pack was a huge win for him.

Ye Zhou stared at the heavy string of numbers on the panel, his eyes showing no hesitation.

In the past, he might have hesitated, or even been reluctant to take the plunge.

But things are different now.

The surge in his emotional state over the past few days is enough to prove that Ye Zhou's idea was not wrong.

The effect of "Dragon Raja I: Dawn of Fire" is already this good; the subsequent installments will only be more intense, more heart-wrenching, and more unsatisfying.

At that point, the emotional value will only snowball and skyrocket.

"exchange."

The panel lit up slightly, and a gentle yet powerful flow of information instantly flooded into Ye Zhou's mind, causing him to subconsciously close his eyes slightly.

Identifying water color, observing wind direction, recognizing fish paths, controlling the rod and playing the fish, bait formulation, wild fishing techniques...

Countless fishing experiences that were originally obscure and difficult to understand were now as if they were innate, deeply imprinted into his very bones.

Just a second ago, Ye Zhou was a novice who couldn't even catch small fish.

The next second, he felt as if he had transformed into a fishing master who had traversed rivers and lakes for decades, and nothing could stop him from hooking any fish.

"Not bad, this was a good deal."

Ye Zhou slowly opened his eyes, a look of understanding flashing in them.

Not only did he gain unparalleled fishing skills, but his judgment of water areas, weather, and terrain was also elevated to an expert level.

Even just standing on the shore, he can roughly judge the depth, species, and size of the fish by observing the water flow, ripples, and distribution of aquatic plants.

This isn't just a fishing skill anymore; it's practically a full-map cheat for the water area.

Ye Zhou glanced at the remaining emotion points on the panel, a slight smile playing on his lips, his mood greatly improved.

With fishing mastery now acquired, I feel more confident in completing my profession quests.

But we can't just leave the remaining 150,000 emotion points to rot.

As the saying goes, "Take a chance, and you might just turn a bicycle into a motorcycle."

Thinking of this, Ye Zhou chuckled and lightly tapped the air with his fingertip, directly opening the lottery interface.

The dazzling turntable unfolded instantly, shimmering with light and color, leaving onlookers mesmerized.

Large sums of cash, attribute points, rare skill cards, mysterious items...

The various rewards are incredibly exciting. Author Ying Wutian's novel, "You're Asked to Participate in a TV Show, You'll Be a Security Guard on Live Stream?", awaits you on Cola Novels.

Nothing stimulates dopamine secretion in humans more than a "ten-pull" (a type of free draw).

Therefore, Ye Zhou resolutely chose to draw a single item.

A ten-pull looks satisfying, but if you get nothing but "thank you for your patronage," that's when you'll be truly heartbroken.

Single draws are different. Although the probability of drawing good items is the same, the advantage is that you have a "feel" for it, you can stop the loss in time, and you can savor the heart-pounding feeling before the draw.

Of course, that's not the point. The point is that he's always had bad luck with his ten-pull gacha pulls.

"System, one single draw."

[Confirm consuming 10000 emotion points for a single draw?]

"confirm."

As soon as the words were spoken, the dazzling spinning wheel began to spin rapidly, the pointer passing through each reward area before gradually slowing down.

Ye Zhou narrowed his eyes, his gaze fixed on the pointer.

He wanted to see what surprises this first single draw would bring him.

One second, two seconds...

Thank you for your patronage.

"This is truly a pleasant surprise!"

Ye Zhou's face darkened, and he cursed under his breath. He felt a pang of pain as he watched the panel instantly lose 10,000 emotion points.

As expected, it's the same with any prize pool; "Thank you for your patronage" is always the most loyal regular customer.

"One more time."

He took a deep breath and pointed his fingertips at the void once more.

It's a minor issue; it's just a single pull, the point is to get the thrill.

If you win, you'll make a fortune; if you don't... well, consider it a donation to the system.

The turntable lit up again, its lights whistling as it spun.

"Please bless me to ship the item! Please bless me to ship the item!!"

Ye Zhou clasped his hands together and muttered to himself, looking every bit like a gambler.

"I refuse to believe it, I'll keep smoking!"

Ye Zhou's temples were bulging with veins, and his fingers tightened slightly as he gripped the wine glass.

Two consecutive "thank you for your patronage" messages would drive anyone crazy.

"Fine, I'll show you what's what today!"

He stared at the remaining 13 emotion points on the panel, took a deep breath, and clicked three times in a row.

Thank you for your patronage.

Thank you for your patronage.

Ye Zhou froze upon seeing the scene before him.

"System, are you a sore loser? My 'emotion' level is still high, are you trying to pull some dirty tricks?"

Just as Ye Zhou was getting frustrated and about to give up, the roulette wheel suddenly flashed with a purple light!

[Ding! Congratulations, host, you have obtained a special item, a rebate card.]

Ye Zhou was slightly taken aback.

What kind of special item is this rebate card?

He quickly opened the item description.

[Rebate Card]

[Effect: This card can be used for spending rebates, with a chance to receive 100%-1000% rebates!]

"This is a great product, and it's come at just the right time."

Upon seeing this introduction, Ye Zhou's eyes lit up instantly.

The frustration of having to say "thank you" four times for patronizing me just now vanished instantly.

This doesn't mean getting something for free; it could even be a huge profit!

Ye Zhou originally planned to spend five or six million to buy a sports car to fulfill his past dream.

However, now that cashback cards are available, perhaps we can increase our budget and just go all in.

Either way, you won't lose out.

If he's lucky enough to get a 10x return, he'll instantly become a billionaire, and with all of it liquid capital.

Even if you're unlucky and only get a 100% return, you can still earn over ten million.

The more Ye Zhou thought about it, the more tempted he became. He had an impulse to mortgage his current house to take out a loan and gamble big.
