Bai Ye lay on the rooftop of a building, surrounded by white mist.
The renowned blade, Blood Drinker, could indeed recover injuries and stamina by absorbing blood from killing, but the speed of recovery was not fast. Moreover, engaging in further killings while injured might attract new troubles, eventually forming a vicious cycle.
Therefore, Bai Ye chose to spend some time utilizing the warm mist for continuous recovery.
While recovering, Bai Ye checked the status screen.
His sin points had risen to 515. Robbing the bank yielded 130, completing a mission gave 100, and the remaining 65 were from killing Adam.
"Over 500 points..." Bai Ye grinned. "That guy should be coming for me by now!"
Simply accumulating sin points to 1000 was not an overly difficult task. Even by committing simple wicked deeds, as long as one was willing to spend a significant amount of time, sin points could be maxed out.
Thus, there was a surprise: once the sin value exceeded five hundred, the hero of the City of Sin would come looking for him.
Of course, for Bai Ye, it wasn't much of a surprise. After all, having visited the City of Sin in his previous life, Bai Ye naturally knew the workings of this place.
However, Bai Ye was confident that he hadn't left too many clues, so the other party shouldn't be able to find him easily.
What gave Bai Ye a headache was another item.
Initial Gene Modification Cell Fluid (Item) (Blue): A gene fluid that can strengthen the body by altering gene sequencing. After consumption, all physical attributes will randomly increase by 5-30 points. There is a 50% chance to unlock the first gene gate. If the unlock fails, there will be side effects from gene sequencing recombination.
This item could be understood as another version of the T-virus. After consumption, physical attributes would randomly increase by 5 to 30 points, but the tricky part was that there was a fifty percent chance of failure in unlocking the first gene gate.
If the gene gate was successfully unlocked, there was no need to say more. Bai Ye had personally witnessed Adam's state after unlocking his gene gate.
Furthermore, unlocking gene gates should not only enhance physical attributes. The sixth, seventh, and eighth senses Adam mentioned were clearly latent improvements. Additionally, the noticeable dulling of pain was very suitable for combat, and there might be other unrevealed enhancements.
But the problem was that if it failed, not only would the gene gate remain locked, but one would also have to endure side effects!
The coexistence of risk and reward made Bai Ye somewhat conflicted.
However, Bai Ye did not need to make a decision for now. Before leaving the City of Sin, Bai Ye would definitely not risk taking it. After all, who knew what the side effects would be? He definitely needed to take the Initial Gene Modification Cell Fluid in a relatively safe environment.
While thinking, Bai Ye tossed out the gacha machine.
He had nothing else to do, so he might as well try his luck with the gacha, as it was past the reset time anyway.
Bai Ye casually grabbed the gacha machine's knob and turned it. The sound of the machine whirring echoed from within, and then a blue capsule dropped out.
"Truly no surprise at all."
Bai Ye sighed, grabbed the capsule, and tapped it on the ground. The capsule opened with a crack.
Six Forms: Soru (Martial Art) (Blue): The first form of the Rokushiki, a secret technique of the Navy. Known as Soru, it utilizes the explosive recoil force generated by dozens of high-speed stomps on the ground within an instant (0.36 seconds) for high-speed movement. To the observer, it's as if the user has suddenly disappeared. Note: Using Soru requires a Speed attribute of 100 or higher.
Movement ability?
Bai Ye glanced at his Speed attribute. It was already over 100, so there was no problem. Otherwise, it would be hilarious if he couldn't use it.
Bai Ye casually spun the gacha machine again, and then...
"Huh?" Bai Ye exclaimed. "Did Zi Yuan share her good luck with me?"
The second capsule that came out was...
Black!
Although not as monstrous as Zi Yuan's one-shot red capsule, a black capsule was still good. It couldn't be said to be extremely rare, but it wasn't something one could frequently pull on a daily basis.
However...
It was black, but besides the color, Bai Ye felt a bit unlucky.
Because the item he drew was something he was already familiar with.
Charged Plasma Cannon (Weapon) (Black): A basic energy weapon of the alien civilization, the Predator. It can fire once every three seconds of charging. After every fifteen shots, it requires a five-minute cooldown due to high-heat overload. It can be used with an infrared aiming assist to improve hit rate.
The Predator's plasma cannon, and even the version Bai Ye had obtained before, were the same: the most basic charged version.
Bai Ye was speechless. "You could have given me a rapid-fire or splash damage high-spec version!"
However, on second thought, it was still acceptable. At least it didn't screw him over by giving him another pair of Pulse Pistols, which were even worse.
Moreover, Bai Ye was actually hesitant to use the Pulse Pistols, or more accurately, Bai Ye needed to use the Pulse Pistols sparingly. Once the energy cells were depleted, they would just be two pieces of scrap metal. While energy cells were not rare and were easy to obtain, they could only be acquired in the technology world zone, and Bai Ye didn't know when he would be able to get any.
Therefore, since he couldn't get them anytime soon, he had to use them sparingly. Having a Predator shoulder cannon to make do for now was also not bad.
While thinking, Bai Ye set the plasma cannon aside and then spent a Divine Stone Shard, saying, "Gold!"
Bai Ye felt there was no need to save this Divine Stone Shard. He definitely wouldn't be able to leave the City of Sin in a short period. There were also powerful individuals like Adam. Furthermore, with his sin points exceeding 500, a troublesome character should be appearing.
Besides, having obtained two Divine Stone Shards after defeating Adam, Bai Ye felt it was fine to be a bit generous. He wasn't at a loss.
A moment later, accompanied by the whirring of the machine, a golden capsule rolled out, and golden radiance instantly filled the surroundings.
Then...
Bai Ye casually retrieved the capsule from the machine and then pried it open. And then...
As the golden capsule was opened, accompanied by a flash of golden light, a giant roulette wheel appeared before Bai Ye.
Bai Ye froze for a moment, then said speechlessly, "How did I get this thing?"
The golden roulette wheel before him was something Bai Ye was very familiar with, because...
That golden roulette wheel and the gacha machine in Bai Ye's hand were from the same series!
