At that moment, the system notification sounded in William Lynn's mind, like the music of immortals.
"Congratulations to the host for accepting your first personal disciple, Henry Stone."
"The host has received one reward lottery chance and 500 exchange points."
Chapter 10: The Second Lottery
Battled the Yu family cultivators, tricked Murong Yanran and the other two, and fought fiercely with the old peach tree.
After working hard for half a day, William Lynn finally reached the season of harvest. Looking at the little one following behind him, William Lynn felt happier than ever before.
After bidding farewell to everyone in Stone Village and asking for directions to Wuzhou, William Lynn set off with the little one.
In Wuzhou, there was still a suspected true Son of Destiny, Edward Shaw, waiting for him.
From Stone Village to Wuzhou, they had to cross vast mountains and the primeval forests within them.
A primeval jungle is nothing like the woods in human society—only those who have been there can truly understand.
Towering trees blocked out the sky and sun, dropping astronomical numbers of leaves every year. In this damp and muggy place, the fallen leaves couldn't turn into dry soil, but instead went through a long process of decay, mixing with the wet earth to become a swamp—the most terrifying trap in the jungle.
And the insects in the forest were many times larger than those commonly seen outside. Swarms of mosquitoes flew and circled, almost like flocks of hummingbirds!
The nearby tree trunks were covered with lush green old vines, twisting and winding in layers and circles. Once, as William Lynn walked by, a bright green snake suddenly shot out from the vines!
William Lynn had to admit, for him to trek alone through this primeval forest would be a deadly ordeal. But now, with the little one, everything was different.
Though not yet four years old, the little one, having grown up in the mountains, was already a seasoned veteran of jungle life.
With him leading the way, William Lynn could walk and still have the leisure to check his Super Ancestral Master System.
After the little one became his disciple, a new disciple system branch appeared in the system.
Currently, the disciple system list had only one person—the little one.
Name: Henry Stone
Age: Three years and seven months
Current cultivation: Qi Refining Stage, Level 2
Potential attributes: Root Bone—10; Comprehension—8; Willpower—8; Fortune—8
Note: Physical strength is formidable, far surpassing ordinary Qi Refining Stage, Level 2 cultivators.
Recommended education plan: Suggest practicing thunder-type Daoist arts, and cultivating both spells and martial arts.
William Lynn nodded in satisfaction. It was just right to teach the little one the Nine Heavens Heavenly Thunder True Method.
He once again opened the lottery system. After accepting the little one as a disciple, the system had rewarded him with a lottery chance.
He checked both the dice system and the roulette system for the available lottery items, but was a bit disappointed—there was nothing particularly good, so he could only pin his hopes on the mystery box.
After last time's Arctic Sky Magnetic Sword, William Lynn already knew that the mystery box was basically a special grand prize, often containing great items.
This time, William Lynn chose the roulette system.
In the void, eighteen slots formed a circle, with fifteen items placed inside, plus a mystery box with a question mark, and two empty slots remaining.
"Box, box, box... Start!"
With a thought, William Lynn made a light spot appear on the roulette, which began spinning rapidly around the wheel.
After about two rounds, the light spot slowed down. William Lynn stared at it nervously, calculating where it would stop.
The light spot moved slower and slower, getting closer and closer to the mystery box.
The next three items were: the spell Flame Blade, the talisman Evil-Subduing Talisman, and the mystery box.
Flame Blade was a spell a notch above common ones like Fireball or Palm Thunder. For William Lynn, who was currently at the Qi Refining Stage, it was just right—spells that were too advanced had requirements that were too high and weren't as practical.
The Evil-Subduing Talisman was a very versatile talisman, specifically for breaking evil spirits and ghosts. Although it was a one-time-use item, if used well, it could be even more useful than the Flame Blade.
Both items were available in the exchange system, each costing several hundred exchange points.
But their appeal was clearly no match for the mystery box.
When the light spot reached the Flame Blade, it seemed about to stop. William Lynn held his breath, not daring to make a sound, but kept shouting in his heart, "Pass, pass, pass!"
As if hearing William Lynn's inner voice, the light spot slowly moved past the Flame Blade and landed on the Evil-Subduing Talisman slot.
"Pass again, pass again, pass again!"
The light spot was very cooperative, once again moving as William Lynn wished, passing over the Evil-Subduing Talisman.
William Lynn was overjoyed—his luck was pretty good. Out of two lotteries, both times he had drawn the special grand prize.
"Could it be that my fortune is really high?" William Lynn thought happily, glancing at the roulette, but was almost scared out of his wits.
The light spot was still moving, and was about to pass over the mystery box.
William Lynn panicked: "Stop! Stop! Stop... damn it!"
The light spot finally trembled and stopped, but it had already passed the mystery box and landed on the next slot.
William Lynn looked closely and was stunned.
