3: Chapter 3 To Gamble or Not to Gamble?

At this moment, Fang Yun had already returned home. In his own bedroom, Fang Yun immersed his mind into his Divine Kingdom.

The continent of millions of square kilometers stretched endlessly beyond sight. On the barren land, there were only some weeds and wild fruits, and right now, only a thousand Primitive Humans were wandering around in the open space.

They gathered wild fruits to eat, lacking any real consciousness, sleeping after they ate and eating after they slept.

At this moment, a thought stirred in his mind as he inspected his Divine Kingdom.

[Divine Master: Fang Yun.]

[Divine Kingdom Area: One million square kilometers.]

[Rank B Talent Abundance: Resource growth speed within the Divine Kingdom increases by 50%]

[Worshippers: Primitive Human (1,000)]

[Rank SSS Hidden Talent: Destiny Magic Dice. Do you want to take a gamble? (Note: Magic Dice levels: White, Green, Blue, Purple, Golden, Red).]

[Destiny Magic Dice has triggered: Obtained the Green Dice 'Bumper Harvest', do you want to use it?]

[Bumper Harvest: All basic resource output of the Divine Kingdom increases by 100%, duration is one day (one year in Divine Kingdom Calendar), remaining refresh times: 1]

By this time, Fang Yun had figured out the current effects and function of this Destiny Magic Dice—it would randomly refresh a buff effect for him every day, and if he wasn't satisfied, he would still have one chance to refresh it.

Right now, he was torn over whether to refresh. If he didn't refresh, his [Abundance] talent combined with the buff would amount to a whopping 300% resource increase, and his early-stage development speed would definitely be much easier.

However, if he refreshed, maybe there would be something even better? His heart wavered.

His current one was only green, considered the second-to-last trashiest tier, and there were so many good things further down.

Moreover, there were a total of six tiers. If he refreshed once more, the worst it could get was white. This meant the probability of it becoming worse after refreshing was one-sixth, the probability of it becoming better was four-sixths, and the probability of it staying unchanged was one-sixth.

Fang Yun quickly calculated it: a five-sixths chance of not getting worse. He would gamble!

[Destiny Magic Dice has been refreshed: Obtained the Purple Dice 'Earth's Treasure']

[Earth's Treasure: There is a probability that mineral veins will be randomly generated underground in the Divine Kingdom. Do you want to use it?]

Fang Yun's eyes lit up slightly. A Purple Magic Dice? Not bad at all. Randomly generating underground mineral veins didn't have much use in the early stage, but later on, it could reduce a certain amount of resource consumption.

Besides, mineral veins contained ores of various ranks. If it refreshed an S-rank mineral vein for him, he would make a massive profit.

Because S-rank mineral veins corresponded to high-tier ores—whether they were spiritual stones of a cultivation civilization, magic crystals of a magic civilization, or blood crystal ores of a martial arts civilization—they were all extremely valuable.

A single S-rank mineral vein was worth over a million points of Faith Value.

Thinking of this, Fang Yun immediately chose to confirm.

[Earth's Treasure has been loaded. Within one year of the Divine Kingdom, resource mineral veins will have a probability of being randomly generated underground.]

After finishing this, Fang Yun's smart wristband suddenly received a communication request. He glanced at it; it was his father, Marshal Fang Qing.

For some reason, Fang Yun's nose suddenly stung. He thought of his father's disappointed and painful gaze in his past life, as well as his resolute determination when severing ties with him.

He quickly sorted out his mood and answered the communication.

A middle-aged man with a square face possessed a natural majesty, and his hair was neatly combed. Only upon seeing Fang Yun did a trace of a smile appear on his face.

Fang Yun's mother had tragically perished early on due to a sneak attack by an exotic foreign god, and it was Marshal Fang Qing who had raised Fang Yun. Moreover, after Fang Yun's mother passed away, he never remarried.

He devoted himself wholeheartedly to cultivating his son. Today happened to be the day of Fang Yun's awakening, so as a father, he naturally had to ask about the situation.

"How is it, son? What is your awakened talent like?"

Looking at the familiar face and caring tone before him, a wave of warmth surged through Fang Yun's heart.

He simply explained his awakened talent and the area of his Divine Kingdom. After hearing this, Marshal Fang Qing breathed a sigh of relief. He wasn't afraid of Fang Yun having a bad talent; he was only afraid that the talent would be too low.

In that case, the resources that needed to be invested would be enormous, and it wouldn't be conducive for Fang Yun to take over the Fang Family later on. The Fang Family was a great clan of deities with fierce competition.

It wasn't possible to say that the family head's son was bound to succeed as the next family head; rather, it depended on whose strength was greater and who made a greater contribution to the family.

Marshal Fang Qing smiled and said, "Not bad, though I wouldn't call my son's talent a freakish endowment, an evaluation of being a moldable talent is certain."

Hearing his father describe him like this, Fang Yun couldn't help rolling his eyes. Was this praising him or degrading him? However, this long-lost familial affection also made Fang Yun feel extremely at ease.

Marshal Fang Qing's talent was also an S-rank talent, named [Son of the Stars].

Furthermore, as the head of the Fang Family, backed by the resources of the entire family, he ultimately achieved the status of an Eighth-Rank Deity relying on his own talent.

"Dad, where is the pioneering resource card you prepared for me? Give it to me quickly; right now, time is life!" Fang Yun couldn't wait to start developing his Divine Kingdom.

In his past life, after obtaining the resource card, he immediately gave almost all the resources to Su Qianqian, causing himself to be completely unable to develop in the early stage.

He would never let that regret happen again.

Hearing Fang Yun's words, a trace of satisfaction appeared in Marshal Fang Qing's eyes. He spoke, "Rest assured, as the son of Marshal Fang Qing, naturally I have already prepared it for you long ago. After hanging up the communication, you can directly claim it in your wristband's mailbox."

"I have already paid the transfer fee."

Upon hearing this, Fang Yun revealed a smile, "Thanks, old man. Hehe, then I'll hang up first."

After saying this, without waiting for Marshal Fang Qing to speak, he directly hung up the communication. On the other end, Marshal Fang Qing also smiled upon seeing his anxious and impatient look.

After hanging up the call, Fang Yun immediately opened his mailbox and indeed found a notification that he had an unreceived mailed item, with the sender noted as his father. His eyes lit up as he quickly opened it.

He knew very well what kind of resources his father had prepared for him in his past life.

...

At the same time, in another luxury villa area in Linjiang City, Su Qianqian was dressed coolly, exposing her fair and slender thighs as she looked at the D-rank mineral vein [Spirit Mineral Mountain] within her Divine Kingdom.

This was obtained from a genius surnamed Zhang in the next class. It could produce quite a few D-rank spirit ores every year, and could also slowly increase the spiritual Qi in the surrounding environment.

A D-rank spirit ore was worth about 100,000 Faith Value, but as long as it was put into the Divine Kingdom, a considerable amount of spiritual stones would automatically be born every year.

This kind of mineral vein could both improve the environment of the Divine Kingdom and increase Faith Value. It was a good investment, and many people would place a few mineral veins in their Divine Kingdom during the early stage.

Besides [Spirit Mineral Mountain], the buildings in her Divine Kingdom also included the D-rank [Spirit-Gathering Spirit Field], where the D-rank crop White Jade Crystal Rice had already undergone Planting.

Eating this White Jade Crystal Rice could significantly enhance the worshippers' physical strength and physical fitness; it was a common spiritual plant.

There were also several other buildings in Su Qianqian's Divine Kingdom that she had asked for from other classmates. With just a slight move on her part, those young boys simply couldn't resist her charm.

At this moment, she cast her gaze on a name in her contacts list: Fang Yun.

"What's wrong with this simping dog? Ever since the awakening, he hasn't contacted me once. Didn't he say before the awakening that he would have a surprise for me after I awakened?"

Su Qianqian frowned slightly. Right now was the time for the Divine Kingdom to accelerate its development, yet this damned Fang Yun was dropping the ball at this time, completely lacking tact.

Just based on you, you still want to pursue me? In your next life!

After thinking about it, she still decided to condescend and make a call to the other party. After all, maybe he had some good things in his hands, and she could also squeeze resources for her future Divine Kingdom's development from his hands.

"Sorry, the call you dialed is temporarily unavailable. Please redial later."

Su Qianqian was tidying her clothes, pulling her already extremely short skirt up a bit more, exposing a pair of large, fair legs, when she froze upon hearing the voice coming from the communication.

He hung up on my call?
