“...My talent is [Idle Death Gambler], and its effect is to gamble with any target in an uncontrollable random roll-off.”

“If I win, my own attributes will temporarily increase, while the target’s attributes will be temporarily weakened.”

“If I lose, the effect is completely reversed.”

“The degree of increase and decrease is related to the size of the roll, with a maximum increase of 100% and a decrease of 20%.”

“When the effect occurs, a second roll-off is not possible...”

“Additionally, every time I lose, my own luck will temporarily increase, improving the chances of all positive probabilities occurring, until the next victory...”

“Brother, how’s my talent, huh?”

“Everyone else is enhancing mechas or weakening mechas, why did I end up being a gambling dog!?”

Jiang Chen swiftly read the message and decisively replied.

“You’re not just any gambling dog, you’re a black-hearted dog dealer!”

“The gambling target isn’t restricted to abyss monsters; you could gamble with friends first, increasing your luck until it’s certain you’ll win, then challenge a lord—isn’t that controlling the odds for a stable victory?”

“Moreover, you can also gamble with your teammates; regardless of win or lose, someone will always get a hundred percent attribute enhancement!”

“Most importantly...”

“The chance of positive probabilities occurring is way more powerful than a temporary hundred percent increase!”

“I just happen to have a mecha pilot trait that suits you; I’ll find you to talk in detail once I’m free.”

After replying to the message, Jiang Chen touched the Abyss Rune.

He dug out a trait crystal from the bottom of his warehouse: [Unstable Mutation].

It was the trait crystal dropped by the boss Ancient God’s Descendant on the last day of his rank advancement trial.

The effect triggers a mutation in the mecha during evolution, leading to either positive or negative outcomes.

For Jiang Chen, this trait was quite unsatisfactory.

After all, his unique talent meant he could grow steadily, simply requiring time to become invincible.

He didn’t need to gamble on any probabilities at all.

However, given the uniqueness of the rank advancement trial, this trait crystal, despite being unsatisfactory, was still the only one of its kind on Planet Blue Star.

The combined value of these items could almost buy the whole Planet Blue Star.

Even if Jiang Chen were generous, he wouldn’t simply give them away to someone for free.

Calling him Grandpa wouldn’t be enough, not even if one called him Ancestor.

So, this was a true [investment].

Jiang Chen would provide start-up capital, and once the other party grew strong enough to clear the Abyss difficulty level, he had to share the output of Supercharge Modules with Jiang Chen as an investment return.

At times like this, past friendship was merely the reason Jiang Chen chose the board game store owner as an investment opportunity.

If he chose to refuse.

Jiang Chen would not force any issue but would select another talent as an investment target.

After dinner and saying goodbye to his parents, Jiang Chen soon arrived in Shuilan City.

The board game store owner’s name was Kun Ping, a friend Jiang Chen had met while playing board games.

Since he had already started a business, he naturally understood the difference between friendship and transactions.

After Jiang Chen explained the content of the talent, helping him understand the level at which his talent stood...

He immediately agreed to Jiang Chen’s conditions and received the [Unstable Mutation] trait as an initial investment.

However, Kun Ping was yet to begin his basic trials.

Both traits and mechas were in a locked state, unable to utilize traits and modules.

Jiang Chen suggested that he undergo a period of combat training first, before starting the basic trials.

He didn’t want to capsize in a gutter, falling at the starting line.

Having dealt with these matters...

Jiang Chen eventually left Shuilan City and headed to Xuntian City.

By then, seven hours had already passed.

Zero had also completed mecha repairs under the effect of a repair tool and had reawakened.

Jiang Chen did not return to the island base.

Instead, accompanied by Zero and Yun, he headed to the Enhancement Zone of Xuntian City.

“The core module is ready, and materials are also in place.”

“It’s time to enhance the mecha!”
