Song Jian stepped up the stairs to the second floor, feeling as if he had passed through a thin membrane. Clearly, this was Li Ke’er setting permissions within the safehouse, only her permitted individuals could access the second floor;

At present, the second-floor casino wasn’t open to the public. However, it had been thoroughly cleaned, and all the old damaged gambling tables were moved away, making the casino appear somewhat empty;

The slot machine was still as it had been, its circle of neon lights were gently flickering. Their four rolling tracks currently displayed the message “Welcome.”;

Song Jian had acquired over thirty zombie cores. According to probability, he should be able to get three to four items, but he couldn’t be certain about their quality;

He inserted a zombie core and forcefully pulled the lever;

Cling-clang-

The four rolling tracks started rotating and, before long, slowed to a halt from left to right;

Thank you for your participation!

Song Jian’s expression remained unchanged as he inserted another zombie core;

Thank you for your participation!

Thank you for your participation!

One or two “Thank you for your participation,” and Song Jian could calmly accept it. Five or six and Song Jian merely frowned slightly. But after over twenty consecutive “Thank you for your participation,” Song Jian was about ready to smash the damn machine;

“What the hell, isn’t it said that by using approximately ten zombie cores, an item can be obtained? You’ve already taken twenty-seven of my zombie cores without even emitting a single fart?” Song Jian said, slightly peeved;

“Phwoo-”

The machine gave off a strange noise similar to a leaky pipe that sounded like a fart;

Song Jian;”…”

“You goddamn…” Song Jian raised his fist, ready to smash the screen of the slot machine, but the screen suddenly flashed, typing out a line of light blue font;

“This machine belongs to the system God. Any damage caused must be compensated for!”

Can’t mess with it, can’t mess with it!

Song Jian retracted his hand honestly, respectfully placing a zombie core into the coin slot with both hands before gently pulling the lever.

Cling-clang-

Thank you for your participation!

“It doesn’t matter, it’s not like it’s a lot of money…” Song Jian comforted himself;

Insert zombie core, pull lever, insert zombie core, pull lever

Song Jian seemingly numb, until the last zombie core is inserted, and cheerful music akin to winning a prize played from the slot machine;

“I won?” Song Jian gaped, moments later revealing a bitter smile. Thirty-six zombie cores were used, and only one item was won, this odds were simply…

“Perhaps, I’m simply unlucky.” Song Jian shook his head, saying this self-mockingly;

Opening the slot of the machine, a golden glow appeared before Song Jian’s eyes;

Song Jian took out what was a scroll emitting a golden glow;

“Skill Scroll: Invisible Sword Qi; Skill Book, Effects: The skill ‘Invisible Sword Qi’ can be learned after use! Invisible Sword Qi: Increases the Sword Qi Energy Bar. When any weapon is used, Invisible Sword Qi can be added to it, enhancing the power of the weapon; Note: This is one of the skills inherited by the Swordsman Immortal. Attention: Sword Qi might cause damage to added weapons.”

“Unlucky? Hahaha, damn unlucky my ass! I’m the luck king! Haha.” Song Jian burst out laughing in surprise, the laughter lowered clearly even from the first floor;

A golden quality skill scroll, also one of the Swordsman Immortal’s inherited skills, this made Song Jian feel as though a gold ingot had fallen from the sky, hitting him on the head;

Without saying a second word, he directly used the scroll. A golden light flashed, and in Song Jian’s personal attribute interface, beneath Vitality Points and Spirit Points, another energy bar illuminating a silver glow was added;

“Sword Qi Value: 100/100”

“What a shame! I currently don’t know any sword skills. Even though I’ve learned Invisible Sword Qi, its power can’t be shown.” Song Jian expressed some regret, his desire for the skill book “Sword Finger” had become more urgent;

Actually, the importance of the “Invisible Sword Qi” skill book greatly surpasses that of “Sword Finger”. This is the core base skill of a Swordsman Immortal profession, all skills of this profession require Invisible Sword Qi to execute. Without Invisible Sword Qi, even if Song Jian acquired the “Sword Finger” skill, it merely becomes a collectible, a dust collector, he wouldn’t be able to both learn and use it;

Count Qian Dahai was willing to use the “Sword Finger” as part of the reward precisely because of this reason, without Invisible Sword Qi as a base, “Sword Finger” couldn’t be learned;

Song Jian, now pleased as punch, descended to the first floor. All the players on the first floor gazed at him as if looking at a big fool, his sudden outburst of laughter earlier had attracted everyone’s attention;

Song Jian didn’t mind the others’ stares, he confidently walked to the bar, pulled out a couple of Doomsday Coins and slapped them onto the counter, loudly ordering, “Give me a glass of rum! A big one!”

“Seems like your harvest wasn’t small!” Fiana filled a glass with rum and slid it toward Song Jian;

The golden liquor brimmed with bubbles, looking just like champagne. Song Jian raised his glass and gulped down the drink. Rum is made from sugarcane, so it has a rich, sweet and slightly bitter taste with quite a kick to it. Once you have tasted it, you are bound to crave it;

Song Jian finished the entire glass of rum in one breath, belched contently and a satisfied smile emerged on his face;

At this moment, the door of the bar was pushed open, making a “bang-” sound;

Almost everyone turned their heads to look at the door. A dwarf dressed in cowboy attire, with two revolvers hanging from his waist, wearing a cowboy hat, stepped through the door;

“I heard that the best oat beer in Zombie City can be found here. I wonder if it’s true! Bartender, give old man Zack a glass of oat beer, no water, no ice!” The dwarf Zack stroked his thick beard and shouted at Fiana;

“Honored guest, may I have the honor of offering you a glass? Let’s drink the most concentrated oat beer at the Sunflower Bar!” A player sitting at the bar immediately stood up and shouted at the cowboy-clad dwarf.

“Old man Zack, come sit in my booth for a bit. Not only do we have the most concentrated oat beer here, but also sweet rum, rye beer, I invite you to have a taste!” Another player in the booth also stood up and began calling out to dwarf Zack;

“Come here, I. ”

“Hi, honored dwarf sir, over here? ”

Suddenly, the entire bar was bustling like a marketplace, almost everyone stood up, inviting the dwarf who had just entered the bar to have a drink;

Song Jian was a bit stunned for a moment, he turned to look at Fiana, gesturing in the direction of the other players and whispered, “What’s going on?”

“No big deal, you’ll get used to it if you come often, they are recruiting followers!” Fiana shrugged her shoulders, saying lazily;
