Crazy Detective

After seeing the new side quest, Zhao Yu couldn’t help but feel a little excited. He couldn’t help but think of all the side quest experiences he had in the past.

Although the side adventure might not necessarily be related to the main plot, it still provided him with more choices.

Furthermore, if he were to experience the system freezing again, or if he had nothing to do, he would have another source of entertainment. He could try to open an instance dungeon.

There were a total of 10 levels to the side quest. Zhao Yu could guess that the higher the level, the more powerful it would be.

Take a level 10 side adventure as an example. If he spent 10000 points to open a side adventure, he would at least get more than 10000 points after completing the mission, right?

But …

Zhao Yu looked at his pathetic 432 points and gave up on the idea of opening a side quest. He didn’t even have enough points to open a level one side quest.

He looked at his points bar and saw that there were some changes to his points bar after the upgrade. It showed 432/100000, which meant that he would need to accumulate 100000 points for the next upgrade.

That was 100000 points!

Zhao Yu was speechless. It had taken him half a year to save up ten thousand points. With one hundred thousand points, wouldn’t his children be able to play soy sauce?

Moreover, points weren’t something that could be accumulated just because he wanted to. In some dangerous situations, spending a few thousand points was like playing around. How could it be that easy to accumulate?

But … Zhao Yu recalled today’s situation. A completion rate of more than 600% had been exchanged for more than 4000 points, which seemed quite a lot!

He wondered if there would be any changes to the way he obtained points after he returned from the side quest. Would it be easier?

Then, Zhao Yu checked his points bar again. This time, he made two new discoveries.

First, he saw a red circle at the front of the points column, and the Arabic number ” 5″ was written in the red circle. He had never seen these words before.

After thinking about it for a while, Zhao Yu felt that this ” 5″ was very likely to represent the current version of the system. He roughly recalled that including today, the system had upgraded four times.

If the original version was level one, then after this upgrade, it would be level five!

He really didn’t know to what extent the system would continue to evolve in the future. In the future, would there be more powerful functions?

The second discovery on the points bar was that when Zhao Yu clicked on it, the level two interface popped up. This was something that had never happened before.

When Zhao Yu saw the new interface, he was excited again.

Unexpectedly, on the points bar’s grading interface, there were also ten buttons. However, the numbers on the button were not just Arabic. They were 100%, 200%, 300%, and so on, up to 1000%.

Zhao Yu opened the first one, and a prompt immediately popped up on the interface.”This function will be activated within 10 minutes of opening a hexagram. It is detected that you have not opened a hexagram yet.”

Oh?

You can’t use it without a hexagram?

Suddenly, Zhao Yu’s curiosity was piqued. Isn’t it just opening a hexagram? then I’ll open one!

Zhao Yu immediately returned to the main interface and opened a hexagram without hesitation.

This time, he opened a “Zhen-kan” hexagram. “Zhen” represented status, and “kan” represented women. Although Zhao Yu didn’t know who the woman could be, from the Zhen hexagram, he could tell that the hexagram was quite normal.

Every time a case was closed, the Zhen hexagram would appear, and his status would rise.

As there was no “Gen” hexagram, which represented the case, Zhao Yu felt a little relieved that the case of the missing exploration team was likely to have been solved!

Well, regardless of the hexagram poem, Zhao Yu re-opened the second level interface of the points bar and pressed the first button marked with 100%.

A different notification immediately popped up from the system.” 15 points, odds 1.2 …”

Ah?

Bet?

Odds?

Zhao Yu frowned. After reading the entire prompt, he finally understood what the functions of these buttons were!

He did not expect this to be a betting area! Every time he opened a hexagram, Zhao Yu could use the betting buttons to bet on his miracle adventure completion rate.

For example, Zhao Yu could bet 15 points on the 100% completion rate. If the completion rate exceeded 100%, he would get 1.2 times the reward, which was 18 points.

After deducting the 15 points he had bet, he could earn a net profit of 3 points.

What the …

This time, Zhao Yu was really stunned by the miracle system’s awesomeness. He thought to himself,”system bro, you really know how to play!”

Not only did he complete the strange encounter mission, but he could also place a bet.

Thinking of this, Zhao Yu pressed the 200% button again. He saw that the betting points here were 160 points, and the odds were 1.8. Looking back, 300% of the betting points was 380 points, and the odds were 3.2 …

Out of curiosity, Zhao Yu clicked on the 1000% button. As a result, the betting points displayed on it were 5213 points, and the odds were a shocking 3172.6 …

Waa!

Zhao Yu was speechless. If he were to get hit by this, then wouldn’t his accumulated points be an astronomical figure?

But …

He pondered for a while and finally understood the meaning behind it. If he had gotten a “universe” hexagram, he might have a chance to try to get a 1000% completion rate.

However, now, with just a small “Zhen kan” hexagram, it must be a daydream!

From this, it could be seen that the bets and odds for each completion rate were based on the hexagram that was opened on the day. Different hexagram texts would have different bets and odds.

Hmm … Interesting, I like it …

Zhao Yu liked to take risks. After thinking about it for a while, he felt that it wouldn’t be a problem for him to get a completion rate of more than 200% for the “Zhen-kan” hexagram.

Therefore, he immediately spent 160 points and made a 200% bet.

If the completion rate could really exceed 200% after the end of this adventure, he would get a return of 288 points. After deducting the cost, he would make a net profit of 180 points.

However, if it didn’t exceed 200%, then his 160 points would all be for nothing.

After placing his bet, Zhao Yu checked the new function of the system.

He then opened the history record area and found that the history record was still in the zero state, so he could not see anything for the time being.

So, he focused his mind and placed all his attention on the most important item, the device bar.

In the end, when he opened it, there was indeed a huge change in the level 2 interface of his device bar. In the past, there were only a variety of devices in the device bar, but now there were three function keys on the level 2 interface.

In order, it was [bet],[item], and [common].

This was the first time Zhao Yu had seen this “commonly used” option. He immediately opened it to take a look and quickly understood the function of this option through the system prompt.

It turned out that Zhao Yu only needed to spend one point to move a device from the device bar to the commonly used device bar.

In the future, whenever there was an emergency, Zhao Yu didn’t need to look through the device bar one by one. He just needed to think about it, and the device would automatically pop up.

However, the prerequisite was that he had to move the device to his common device bar.

Hmm …

Zhao Yu felt that the system was becoming more and more humane.

Due to the increasing variety of items, it was indeed very troublesome to find an item he wanted from the item bar.

With this function, he would be able to instantly cast items in the future, which would be fast and convenient.

Alright!

When he had enough points in the future, he would definitely get some commonly used props to save himself some trouble.

Just like that, after exiting the common device bar, Zhao Yu focused his gaze on the function called “betting”.

In fact, after seeing the name, he could almost guess what it meant. However, when he opened the function area, he was shocked by what appeared inside …
