Chapter 1619: Rubik's Cube Beauty (81)

Meanwhile, at the location of the lottery boxes in Trading City, everyone stood before their own machine and began feeding in coins or swiping their cards to draw.

One thousand Rubik's Cube coins bought a single draw.

Even after spending heavily beforehand, each of them still had several million Rubik's Cube coins left.

Their luck was good. Right from the beginning, they drew all kinds of rare items from the lottery boxes, making them overjoyed.

Even Zhai Chenming, who already knew the boxes might not contain any keys, couldn't help but feel excited after obtaining those rare treasures.

In truth, he still hoped a key would appear.

If he could obtain one, leaving the Rubik's Cube World would become much easier. He had always been wary of the mysterious being behind him.

Most of them drew ten, twenty, or even fifty times in succession.

Before long, the amount of Rubik's Cube coins in their possession was rapidly dwindling.

“Why is there still no key?” Yin Xiaofei couldn't help muttering. “My Rubik's Cube coins are almost gone. If we still don't get one, won't we have to stay here?”

When Zhang Le heard her mention leaving, the words he had been about to say—that he could lend her some Rubik's Cube coins—were immediately swallowed back down.

He had plenty of Rubik's Cube coins. One could even say they were endless.

But if Yin Xiaofei insisted on leaving, she would probably remain here forever until she got her wish.

For the first time, he truly appreciated the fact that the probability of a key appearing from the lottery boxes was practically zero.

“I didn't get a key either.” Yi Yingxue stepped away from the machine. She had no intention of spending the remainder of her money.

If she used it all up and still failed to get a key, she would be back to struggling once again.

“Neither did I.” Yin Rui shrugged.

“Ah Ming, what about you?” Yi Yingxue asked.

By now, she had already accepted the outcome.

A mysterious place like the Rubik's Cube World wasn't somewhere one could enter and leave at will.

Just obtaining medicine to cure her terminal illness had required surviving countless dangers.

A key for leaving was naturally even harder to obtain.

Zhai Chenming shook his head coldly. “No luck.”

Though he hadn't obtained a key, he had drawn a dagger.

The mysterious being had told him it was a divine weapon, one specifically meant to counter people like Tang Guo—the upper echelon of the Rubik's Cube World.

Using it was simple.

All he had to do was take advantage of a moment when the other party wasn't paying attention and plunge the dagger into their heart. They would immediately be destroyed.

Even those with the same status as Tang Guo would be unable to withstand such an attack.

“It doesn't matter. We've already gained so many wonderful things. It would be impossible not to pay some sort of price.” Yi Yingxue understood things clearly. Wrapping her arm around Zhai Chenming's, she smiled. “Ah Ming, let's stay here and slowly earn more Rubik's Cube coins. Now that we have strength and ability, we'll definitely leave one day.”

“One day? Which day exactly?” Zhai Chenming suddenly asked.

Tang Guo and the others were obviously City Lords of the Rubik's Cube World.

Yet they disguised themselves as ordinary people and stood by watching others struggle, watching them march step by step toward death in pursuit of what they desired.

Whenever he thought of that, Zhai Chenming wanted nothing more than to destroy this place.

How many people had been trapped here?

They worked tirelessly, risking their lives to accumulate Rubik's Cube coins. Wasn't it all for the sake of leaving?

And yet the lottery boxes couldn't produce keys at all.

Wasn't that simply toying with them?

“Ah Ming, let's take things slowly. There's no need to rush. This is a wonderful place. As long as you're willing to work for it, you can obtain what you desire. I think it's quite good.”
