MTL NOVEL Chapter 188: Chapter 188 Nothing will happen
Chapter 188 Nothing will happen
"Ah, why is this General Pool such a pitfall!"
No wonder Kaito is sighing here.
During these five months, Kaito had earned a total of 9,600 gold coins, and had six opportunities for ten consecutive draws.
In the first three draws, Kaito chose to accumulate enough lottery tickets for a ten-pull draw and then draw immediately.
At that time, there happened to be a 300 gold coin reward for the achievement of being appointed as a Jonin.
[Ding! You have become a jonin and have unlocked the achievement "Jonin? Are you ready for the pots and pans?"]
Although he didn't understand what the system achievements were complaining about, Kaito still drew the prizes excitedly.
However, the prizes he received were all so numerous that it is hard to describe them in words.
The purple items obtained from three ten-draw draws are:
[PP Up] (Purple item: a nutrient rich in energy. After taking it, you can increase the upper limit of your own chakra.)
[TM: Headbutt] (Purple item: a physical technique without attributes. It condenses chakra on the user's head, greatly increases the hardness of the head, and then hits the enemy with all your strength, causing physical damage. There is a small chance that the enemy will shrink back due to the user's momentum.)
[TM: Charm] (Purple item: a sound wave illusion. After the seal is performed, a cute cry comes out of the mouth to attract the enemy's attention, making it careless and let down its guard, thereby reducing the opponent's desire to attack.)
[TM: Leap] (Purple item: a skill without attributes. It condenses chakra on the user's legs, greatly enhances the user's jumping ability, and allows the user to jump high into the sky.) ( Leap = Splash. I will use Leap instead of Splash as author did)
Four purple items were obtained from three ten-draw draws. Logically speaking, it is not a loss no matter how you look at it.
Especially since the 'PP Up' that Kaito needed most came out in the first ten draws, which slightly alleviated the embarrassing situation of Kaito who had just become a jonin but had an insufficient total amount of chakra.
Another purple skill, 'Headbutt', although the skill itself is a bit nonsensical.
However, the knowledge that is instilled when learning skills includes the technique of hardening parts of the body by infusing chakra to greatly improve defense.
It can be considered a standard purple item.
However, two ten-draw draws in the following month almost made Kaito so angry that he almost vomited blood.
First of all, there is the illusion of "Charm". Let's not even mention the psychological trauma caused to Kaito by the so-called "Charm" emitted when this move was released.
Even if Kaito had the audacity to ignore his shame and release his skills, the effect of this illusion was still horrific.
The 'Charm' is exactly as described, it is to attract the enemy's attention through cuteness and make people careless.
The principle is similar to the basic illusion of the ninja world, 'Demonic Illusion: Hell Viewing Technique', but that at least uses fear to attack the opponent, while his uses cuteness.
Any enemy with a little bit of brains would not be unable to do it, right?
Kaito had suppressed his shame and gone to find someone to help him try out his moves.
As a result, even when he used all his strength, it was only effective against opponents who were weaker than him, making the person who was under the illusion slightly dazed.
However, after being hit by this illusion, several female members of his team looked at him with a strange look in their eyes.
As a result, Kaito had to avoid them for several days in a row.
Not to mention that this illusion requires hand seals to release, although there is only one seal.
But when he fights against the enemy, he has this skill. No matter whether he releases the "Feather Dance" or the "Peck", the effect he can achieve is far better than the "Charm".
In the end, Kaito had no choice but to seal this thing up.
As for the 'Leap' in the third draw, it is not even a physical technique or an illusion.
The system skill introduction clearly stated "non-attribute skills". When Kaito drew this thing, he almost cursed out loud.
Doesn't the "non-attribute skill" thing clearly say that it is on the same level as "climbing trees" and "walking on water"?
What's even more annoying is that after drawing this thing, the system triggers the achievement again.
[Ding! You have mastered the non-attribute skill to jump up and have unlocked the achievement "But nothing will happen!"]
The system never tells lies. If it says 'nothing will happen', it really means nothing will happen.
This time the system achievement did not even award a gold coin.
After this incident, the 'General Attribute Pool' dealt a heavy blow to Kaito.
He even considered giving up the 'General Attribute Pool' and returning to the 'Water Attribute Pool'.
But in the end, seeing that there were still 28 draws left to get the guaranteed prize, Kaito gritted his teeth and endured it.
Fortunately, the skill of "Leap" really "greatly increases jumping power" as the system description says.
The height of the jump is really high!
Even an ordinary ninja with a large hang glider on his back can run a few steps on flat ground and jump to a height of 60 to 70 meters.
Although it is not as high as the height of taking off directly from the catapult of an aircraft carrier, it also gives ordinary flying ninjas the opportunity to take off again after landing on the ground during a combat mission.
Kaito did not keep the skill to himself, but directly handed it over to the village and taught it to the entire flying unit.
In exchange, he obtained several useless C-rank ninjutsu, and at the same time his reputation within the flying unit was greatly improved again.
Although 'Leap' finally saved some face for the general pool, Kaito still decided to suspend the lottery, and wait until 30 draws are accumulated before drawing all at once.
And today is the day when Kaito has saved up 4,800 gold coins again, and can make 30 consecutive withdrawals at one time, with a guaranteed gold prize payout.
Getting a gold prize should be a happy and exciting experience.
However, there is precedent.
Let's take a look at the gold items in the general prize pool.
Such mutually destructive moves as "Hyper Beam" and "Explosion".
There is also 'Slow Start', which is a purely negative effect, but because it is the ability of the 'Legendary Pokémon' Regigigas, it has become a gold-level prize of unknown meaning.
Kaito really didn't have any high expectations for this lottery.
"Oh, what a bummer!"
"I only know that the general pool has a lot of perverted skills, but how come I forgot that the general pool also has a lot of nonsensical skills!!"
Kaito stared at the system panel with lifeless eyes, wishing he could slap himself a few times.
"Gamblers must die a miserable death!"
It's a pity that if these 30 consecutive draws are not in the 'General Attribute Pool' and he doesn't get the golden grand prize, Kaito will never be satisfied.
"I don't ask for god-level abilities and moves like Arceus's Multi-Attributes and Judgement! Relic Song or Max Guard would be good too. At the very least, a Hyper Beam would be good too."
"If the gold color is all crooked, I will never smoke from this garbage pool again!"
Blue looked at his master who was talking to himself and acting crazy, and knew that his master had some mental problems recently.
He simply covered his ears, closed his eyes, and moved further away.
But before he covered his ears, he finally heard a sound.
"System lottery!"
