Chapter 873 Gods' Game: Card Swapping 117

Yu Xunge was indeed confident that they wouldn't be able to win the lottery, which is why she dared to sell scratch-off tickets to her apprentices.

Upon hearing Fogblade's words, "Is the chance so small? Didn't we get it on the first try before?", a question flashed through her mind: Does this scratch-off lottery ticket... have a guaranteed drop rate and a chance of winning?

Zhu Ri and Tian Hu Hao Qi combined swiped over 10,000 cards, and only got 12 ancient weapons, 52 epic weapons, and the most legendary weapons, over 100.

There is actually a somewhat vague pattern to this frequency of prize payouts...

Not only her, but even Zhu Ri and Tian Hu Hao Qi sometimes said "This is definitely not going to happen" as soon as they put in the coins while scratching.

She immediately activated the "Waste Guide" and entered time stop mode; she needed to continue experimenting to prove her hypothesis.

Scratch cards can't be made. Once time stops, skill cooldowns won't start counting down. Even if she has the "Murder Time" ability, which has a 30% chance to reduce the cooldown of all skills by 1% with each critical hit, there's no way to make the cooldowns zero with a single critical hit.

She took out all the parchments that Zhu Ri and Tian Hu Hao Qi had scratched from her schoolbag, including the winning parchments. The top parchment was the one that had revealed a war-level weapon.

The parchments were actually in a slightly random order; they were discarded rather haphazardly, but the general order wouldn't change much.

Moreover, Tianhu Haoqi and Zhuri both threw their scratch-off tickets in the same place after they finished scratching, so their tickets were all mixed up together.

But that's exactly what Yu Xunge wanted. She needed different scratch-off lottery players to verify her hypothesis—whether the odds of winning a scratch-off lottery would change due to changes in the players.

She watched the two unfortunate teachers scraping the surface the whole time during the first half of the night.

Even when she was pretending to be dead while lying on the table, she would still rush over to take a look whenever the two teachers pulled out any weapons.

It's fair to say that she had seen all the weapons except for the last one, a war-grade dagger, whose attributes she hadn't seen.

She patiently laid out the more than 11,000 parchments, which almost filled the entire coastline, and soon found the scratch-off ticket that had won her the first time.

The winning weapon on the scratch card was exactly the same as the real thing—a legendary lightning-shaped dagger. She pushed the parchment out a little.

Winning the lottery for the second time... still legendary.

The third time...the fourth time...the eleventh time winning the lottery - an epic moment!

After this weapon was discovered, Teacher Tianhu Haoqi arrived.

Yu Xunge found every winning scratch-off ticket and compiled the intervals between their two wins.

——17~192.

Most of the time, the interval between two winnings is between 70 and 160, but Yu Xunge is more concerned about the extreme value.

The longest interval, with the daily draw and the Heavenly Seven combined, is 192 consecutive draws without winning. Even if this number is wrong because the parchment was sorted carelessly, it doesn't matter. The maximum value is not important. What she cares about most is the minimum value!

17.

At least in this stack of parchment, the interval between two winning bids was no less than 17 parchments...

But why did every single scratch card given to Maple Sugar Mist Blade and the others win after they came out?

He even won four cards in a row: two epic, one legendary, and one ancient.

Because these people all have a luck score of 10?

But she has a Luck of 12! Even if 3 points of Luck were temporarily banned due to the use of "Illogical" in the team battle, she should still have 9 points of Luck left. There shouldn't be such a big difference. Why can't she draw the dagger after so many attempts...?

Wait a minute! Tianhu Haoqi also won a weapon on his very first scratch-off ticket—a fist blade!

It's the weapon type! The weapons they drew were all different.

Chasing the Sun is a dagger, Fog Blade is a longsword, Motorcycle is a gun, Fat Goose is a gauntlet, Maple Syrup is a spear, while Tianhu Haoqi draws a wider variety of items, including daggers, bows and arrows, magic wands, and gauntlets. When she gets tired of a particular item, she simply changes to another.

But she would switch back to her dagger every now and then, I don't know if it was because she knew how to use it, or if she wanted to help Zhu Ri draw one...

And on the few times she did scrape, she would ask for a dagger, which overlapped with the daily routine.

She carefully returned to the beginning of the parchment and walked through it again.

The two winning weapons that were delivered within 17 attempts were a dagger and a fist blade from the "Heavenly Hand Haoqi" set.

Then, the second time he won the prize after a 25-time interval, the winning weapons at both ends were Tianhu Haoqi's bow and arrow and Zhu Ri's dagger.

On the day when she couldn't scrape off the weapon after 192 consecutive attempts, not only were Zhu Ri and Tian Hu Hao Qi scraping off the dagger, but she also scraped off it several times.

Therefore... what affects the winning rate of scratch-off lottery tickets is not whether the player is lucky or whether they are a new or experienced player, but rather the designated winning weapon!

The more times you try to draw the same weapon, the lower your chances of getting it!

She went back to the beginning and sorted out the daggers that Tianhu Haoqi had drawn every day before he arrived.

Zhu Ri spent over an hour using various skills to speed up the process of creating scratch cards. The 11 daggers were the result of Zhu Ri scratching nearly 600 scratch cards.

The largest interval is 100, while the smallest interval is 30.

Yes, after Tianhu Haoqi arrived, whenever the interval between two winning tickets was less than 30 scratch-off tickets, the winning items they specified were all different.

Yu Xunge casually found a place to sit down and continued scratching the scratch cards she hadn't finished earlier. When she scratched the 100th card, she had a premonition and excitedly looked at the fishing rod pattern she had scratched.

She reached into the parchment and pulled out an extra-long white fishing rod from the rippling golden waves—an epic!

This bastard has a pity system that requires 100 pulls!

Yu Xunge had pretty much figured out the patterns of scratch-off lottery tickets.

Each weapon has a chance to win on the first scratch, but to win again with the same type of weapon, you need to skip at least 30 scratches.

The drop rate for the same weapon will decrease with each consecutive pull, but there's a guaranteed drop after 100 pulls.

When multiple people scratch together, their number of draws are not counted together, but separately. For example, when the three of them scratched the dagger together, they scratched 192 times before winning.

However, if you switch to a different weapon, the winning interval will be recalculated, and the success rate is very likely to increase significantly.

The reason why Tianhu Haoqi, Wuren Fengshang, and several others got their first draws so easily is because the weapons they drew were different from those of the previous players.

I just don't understand why I'm so unlucky...

I only caught a fish after 100 tries on my first fishing attempt.

Is it because the 3 points of luck used after using "No Logic" haven't been recovered yet?

But that's only a little less than Maple Syrup and the others. It's not like you'll get a perfect score on your first pull, but it shouldn't even be guaranteed, right? This is really strange...

Yu Xunge couldn't understand it at all, but she knew that she could use 29 scratch cards to exchange for bait.
