Global events, civilized gambling!

Looking at the rose-gold badge in his hand, Chen Ming's heart was completely filled with excitement.

Without hesitation, he directly activated his talent, deciding to enhance and enchant it first.

[Ding! You have activated your Forbidden Talent on the target [luck badge], obtaining a Tier 3 enhancement.]

[Congratulations! You have obtained the item: Favor of the Goddess of Luck (Legendary-Grade).]

[Ding! You have activated your Forbidden Talent on the target [luck badge], successfully enchanting it with a golden affix: Greed.]

As the faint light faded, Chen Ming hurriedly looked down.

[Favor of the Goddess of Luck]

[Quality: Legendary-Grade.]

[Level: Special Equipment. None.]

[Durability: ∞/∞.]

[Luck Attribute: +15 points.]

[Special Effect 1: Monster drop rate +10%.]

[Special Effect 2: 1.5% chance to trigger a random lucky event. The higher the Luck attribute, the more generous the lucky event rewards.]

[Special Effect 3: All uncertain factors will develop in a favorable direction.]

[Additional Affix: Greed (Gold): Every time you kill an enemy, there is a 1% chance to plunder 1 point of the opponent's Luck attribute. The higher the enemy's Luck attribute, the higher the plunder chance and points.]

[Description: Destiny? I am destiny!]

...

"Now I've truly become the King of Luck."

The excitement in Chen Ming's heart was irrepressible.

Although [Favor of the Goddess of Luck] was only of Legendary-Grade quality, its value was comparable to a divine artifact.

As long as he wore it, he would instantly transform into a Child of Destiny, a protagonist of fortune.

Chen Ming decisively equipped it.

The moment he put it on, a world announcement notification suddenly popped up before his eyes.

[World Announcement: Detected that over 100 Blue Star players have exceeded Level 10. The Blue Star exclusive world event—Dungeon Challenge—will open tomorrow at 8:00 AM.]

[Dungeon Challenge]

[Event Details: A large-scale dungeon—The Forgotten Dungeon—will open. All Blue Star players can form teams to participate. Clearing the challenge will grant extremely generous rewards.]

[Note: Each Blue Star player has one challenge attempt. Failure will result in loss of eligibility.]

[Note: The dungeon is divided into six difficulties: Normal, Elite, Hard, Purgatory, and Abyss. The first clear of Hard difficulty or above will 100% reward a Guild Token.]

[Note: This event will feature a Speedrun Mode. The team that clears the dungeon the fastest will receive extra rewards when the event ends.]

[Note: This event allows for cross-Novice Village matchmaking.]

[Event Duration: 2 hours.]

...

"This event..."

Looking at the world announcement that suddenly popped up, Chen Ming's eyes showed a hint of surprise.

He remembered that this world event had not appeared in his previous life.

"Could it be the butterfly effect caused by my rebirth?"

Chen Ming speculated secretly.

However, Chen Ming soon stopped overthinking it; after all, obsessing over such things was meaningless.

"Under normal circumstances, the rewards for this kind of large-scale world event are usually not bad."

Chen Ming's heart gradually filled with anticipation.

Of course, it wasn't just him; all Blue Star players became excited at this moment.

"Holy crap, a dungeon event is out! Any brothers want to team up?"

"Level 5 Knight daddy here, S-rank talent. Looking for some strong teammates. Requirement: must follow commands."

"36D sister flowers, beautiful with sweet voices. Begging a big shot to carry us. Can become CPs after clearing (attached: selfie of two JK lolis)."

"Top-tier speedrun squad, 4/5, looking for a Priest daddy. Must be able to time heals perfectly and have buff recovery skills."

"Wuwu, newbie white belt, begging a big shot sister to carry me (attached: little milk dog selfie)."

"Is the one upstairs Xiao Chunan? If so, I can carry for free. I'm a Level 6 Heavy Armored Warrior, A-rank talent + hidden class, from Tianfu. (attached: selfie of a bearded man with small round glasses)."

"Holy crap, a Tianfu specialty."

"Energy City Guild, recruiting top-tier fighters."

...

On the [World Chat Channel], various messages were flowing, and all players were in high spirits.

After all, for everyone, this world event was a rare opportunity. If they could successfully clear the dungeon, they might be able to change their fate against the heavens.

But just then, another series of world announcements popped up.

[Emergency World Announcement: The Demi-human Civilization has used a special item—Civilization Bet Token—to forcibly link with the Blue Star Civilization and initiate a Civilization Bet.]

Civilization Bet?

Chen Ming's brow furrowed slightly.

This was a special kind of war between civilizations.

The method of each bet was different.

The winner could obtain the resources of the loser.

In his previous life, after Blue Star entered the main city area, they had experienced many Civilization Bets.

There were both victories and defeats.

"Is it another butterfly effect caused by my rebirth?"

Chen Ming continued to look at the world announcement.

[Cost of this Civilization Bet: For the losing civilization, all players' levels -3, all attributes -20 points, and one random piece of equipment will disappear. For the winning civilization, all players' levels +3, all attributes +20 points, and one Bronze-grade treasure chest.]

[Detected that both Blue Star Civilization and Demi-human Civilization are about to start world events. Specific content of this Civilization Bet: Clear the large-scale dungeon—The Forgotten Dungeon. The side that uses less time wins.]

Requirement: Clear the dungeon on Hard difficulty or above.]

[Reminder: The [Player Chat Channels] of both civilizations will be linked in one minute until the end of this Civilization Bet.]

After reading the full content of the world announcement, Chen Ming couldn't help but sneer.

Demi-human Civilization.

An old rival of Blue Star.

The two sides often had friction in his previous life, and more than one civilization war had broken out.

Of course, Blue Star had never lost.

And the Demi-human Civilization, like the Blue Star Civilization, was a 'Novice Level 1 Civilization' that had just entered Eternal.

"Interesting!"

"I was thinking of finding a way to wipe out the Demi-human Civilization after entering the main city area."

"I didn't expect them to deliver themselves to my doorstep."

Killing intent surged in Chen Ming's eyes.

In his previous life, anyone who had experienced the war with the Demi-human Civilization wanted nothing more than to exterminate their entire race.

And on the [World Chat Channel], following this series of world announcements...

The already boiling atmosphere among the players became even more intense.

"Holy crap, Civilization Bet? What is this?"

"Demi-human Civilization? Never heard of them."

"Dammit, I don't care who the opponent is, we won't back down. Just do it."

"Heh, if friends come, we have fine wine; if enemies come, we have shotguns. Let's kill this bullshit Demi-human Civilization."

"Holy crap, the penalty for losing this Civilization Bet is a bit scary. If we lose, all attributes -20 and level -3. My hard work over the past two days will go down the drain."

"Wuwu, I just reached Level 2, and not a single one of my five main attributes is over 20. If we lose, I can't even imagine it."

"We must win! If we win this wave, we'll take off!"

[Note: The chat channels of Blue Star Civilization and Demi-human Civilization have been linked.]
