Apocalypse: System of lotteries



"Chef?"

"Sure!"

Ming gave Lopene a kick, "What are you staring at? Use your skills on this five-star king-level chef, but don't kill him, understand?"

"Hehe~" Lopene stared at the person in front of him without taking any action.

"…"

Ming was about to punch Lopene to make him understand, but suddenly remembered that Lopene was now his puppet and using skills need to consume spiritual energy!

He quickly took out a blue spiritual energy bracelet and put it on Lopene's wrist. It was his own oversight.

"Go make some money."

"Hehe~"

The new No.1 puppet Lopene rushed towards the five-star chef. Ming glanced at the porcupine, whose skills also consumed spiritual energy. However, its skills were related to bone spikes. Now without the spikes, it could only rely on brute force to charge, which seemed quite cost-effective.

"Hehe!"

Lopene approached the five-star chef, raised his hand, and used the [I Help You Make Money] skill.

[Your puppet Lopene gained 20,000 gold coins, the opponent will make an investment judgment in 10 seconds]

"Great!"

For ordinary zombies, they usually only had one or two tens of thousands of gold coins. Lopene's 'help you make money' combined with Ming's "prescription" skill created a perfect combination.

Lopene took all the money from the opponent, then he went to make a prescription, directly causing the target to lose everything. Next~ heh~ only a brutal beating remained!

[Your puppet Lopene is affected by the opponent's [Taste Delicious Food] skill, catching a random delicious food: cake. It finds it tasty and loses its attack ability for 5 seconds]

[Your puppet Lopene loses its attack ability, triggering the opponent's [Binge Eating] talent, the effect of the cake's deliciousness increases by 1, and Lopene's loss of attack ability extends to 10 seconds]

[Your puppet Lopene is affected by the opponent's [Sit Down and Eat Slowly] skill, a dining table appears in front of Lopene. Lopene sits down, forced to remain seated for 30 seconds]

[Your puppet Lopene takes the opponent's [Signature Dish], triggering the opponent's [Binge Eating] talent again, Lopene's loss of attack ability extends to 20 seconds.]

Bang!!!

[Your puppet Lopene gets hit on the head with a pan by the opponent... Defense value -500]

Bang bang!!!

[Your puppet Lopene gets hit on the head with a pan and an iron pot by the opponent... Defense value -1000]

"I...what?!" Ming was dumbfounded, thinking Lopene was strong but didn't expect to be completely crushed by the opponent!

From Lopene being suppressed, combined with his own experience fighting zombies, Ming could conclude that all zombie boss settings were very rigid.

For example, the stealth bomber zombie, who only used its stealth and bomb skills, never engaged in close combat. Lopene, with all his skills and talents focused on making money, didn't have a single real killing skill. When fighting Ming, he didn't seem to attack physically, so his set was to take all the money from an area.

[Your foodie looks at you and tells you it wants to join the fight. It can't stand to see its fellow zombies bullied. It rushes to the battlefield, leaps into action, and knocks Lopene away from the dining table...]

[Foodie jumps onto the dining table and starts devouring the cake on the table. It looks up at the five-star chef and quacks... Come on, cover the table with food, and let me show you my true abilities...]

[Da Vinci looks at you, wanting to do something useful too. It hops in front of the five-star chef and quacks... I want a plate of sweet and sour chilled white grubs...]

"As expected~" Ming want to lean on the little bear... only to find it gone.

He looked over and saw the little bear standing next to the table, paw slamming the table! Its message was clear... taking the food!

[Your Da Vinci communicates with the little bear, then looks at the five-star chef, demanding a dish of honey-glazed carp for its sister, with extra honey...]

[Foodie looks at the five-star chef and quacks... Hurry up with the food, how can we give you a five-star rating if you're so slow...]

"Sigh~" Ming was speechless, why were all his companion's foodies? He glanced at Lopene, who was lying on the ground in a sitting position. That forced immobilization was truly amazing!

Ming wanted to capture the five-star chef alive since his mental attributes could directly crush the opponent. However, the chef's skills hadn't been fully released yet. If Ming attacked, he might be caught in a combo, so he sent Lopene to draw out all the opponent's skills. Unexpectedly, Lopene went down first.

Both were five-star king-level. Lopene, aren't you ashamed? At that moment, he saw the porcupine still standing by his side. Finally, there was a non-foodie creature in the house.

"It seems I have to rely on myself." Ming clenched his fist, preparing to attack with his right foot.

Bang!! A loud crash!

The five-star chef's iron pot and spatula collided. After putting down them on the dining table, it triggered a hidden skill [Call You Home for Dinner].

The porcupine dashed towards the dining table, obediently squatting in front of the five-star chef, looking like a wagging dog. Indeed, they were all the same in the face of food!

"Sigh~"

"Hidden skills as well?"

Ming frowned. He had just used his Hawk-Eye skill and didn't see any ability related to hitting with a spatula. But when he looked again, it showed a hidden skill.

Damn, it~ Zombies are playing with hidden skills now?

Eh? Why did he suddenly have the urge to eat... he really wanted to eat something.

What's going on? He couldn't control his desire to go to the dining table and eat!

"Fortunately, I came prepared~"

Ming chuckled lightly, biting a Refreshing Peony in his mouth, its fragrance filling the air!

However... Ming discovered that doesn't work, and his footsteps continued towards the dining table. It was useless~

Bang!!

The five-star chef struck the iron pot with the spatula again~ [Call You Home for Dinner Again. If you don't come back, the Furious skill[Make You Regret Not Coming Home for Dinner, I'll Beat You to Death] will be triggered: the five-star chef's attributes will be tripled, and he will chase you with the spatula... until you die!）]

"Damn it!"

Ming struggled to make himself stop, having just rationally analyzed the situation. He thought the chef only knew how to cook and immobilize people, but he didn't expect him to be violent as well.

"Sigh~"

Ming suddenly felt a little dizzy. Going forward to eat would definitely remove his desire to fight. After sitting down, he would be immobilized for 30 seconds and then hit in the head with the iron spatula!

Lopene lost 500 defense points from one hit. If he were to be hit for 30 seconds, his head might end up as flat as a pancake!

Retreating? No, retreating would trigger the chef's Furious skill: [Make You Regret Not Coming Home for Dinner, I'll Beat You to Death], and his attributes would triple. All Ming could do was take a beating!

This was difficult!

"I can't control my steps," Ming continued moving forward.

"Right, there's a new skill, let's use Weakness Detection again!"

[Weakness Detection: When you're not hungry, who cares if you've eaten...]

"Sigh~"

"That... makes so much sense!" Ming immediately took out the bread, grilled fish, and drinks from his inventory and stuffed them into his mouth! He also drank a bottle of stamina potion, filling up his satiety bar completely!

"I'm full!" Ming patted his chest, facing the five-star chef.

Hum~

His footsteps stopped moving forward, his mind instantly clear, no longer wanting to eat the chef's food. 

This time, the Weakness Detection skill really came in handy!

"Have you used all your skills?"

"Let me see if you're sick!" Ming activated Extreme Evasion, quickly rushing to the five-star chef, "You've got a terminal illness!"

The zombie chef paused for 0.1 seconds, and an injector was already stuck in its wrist, causing hallucinations for 3 seconds.

"Are all your skills on cooldown?"

Ming's right hand pressed directly on the five-star chef's head, connecting!

The connection was successful.

[Your froggies look at the chef, asking it to make some food, they are hungry... Little Bear is even hungrier...]

[Da Vinci looks at you, thinking you should have defeated the chef. It believes you should let it cook a meal, and if it's not delicious, kill it again...]

"Alright~" Ming used Hawk-Eye to check the cake on the table:

[Cake, conjured by psychic powers, clean and sanitary, just the right sweetness, suitable for all ages, and contains no harmful substances]

"It's actually the same as Wendy's fish."

"We've got another food source, hehe."

Ming then checked the five-star chef's puppet slot, ready to have it cook a delicious meal as a reward for his froggies. However, when he saw the psychic energy cost for the cooking skill, he hesitated for a moment, turned to his family, and said, "Zombie-made food is dirty! Our family values cleanliness the most. I'll cook something delicious for you tonight."

[Your froggies look at you, Foodie licks the cake on the table, it thinks it's not dirty and quite tasty...]

"..."
