My Kingdom Building Done Right!
Chapter 152: Spinning The Wheel Of Fortune Once More [Part 1]
"Are you guys ready?!"
""Yes!""
"I can’t hear you!"
""Ready!""
Leone grinned as he stood beside the Wheel of Fortune. He looked at the crowd with his arms crossed over his chest.
It had been a while since he spun this wheel. That was because he was trying to save up some luck to get some prizes.
Naturally, the entire Aslan Tribe was invited for this event, including Brann and Malcolm.
Gundar also came out of curiosity and watched as the children happily surrounded Leone, showing excitement for what was about to happen next.
Everyone had gathered in the fortress, making this a grand event.
Of course, he also planned to hold a Wheel of Fortune event for the Stormhorn Tribe and the Bloodtusk Tribe at a later time. But the prizes would be the Uncommon Mount Tickets he hadn’t exchanged yet.
For this event, Leone could spin the wheel seventy times!
Aside from the daily chances he had saved up, he also received a few bonus spins after his Territory Rank had been upgraded to Rank 2.
He woke up feeling lucky today, so he decided to spin the Wheel of Fortune.
Just as Daedalus had stated in the past, the Wheel of Fortune indeed got an upgrade.
In the past, the Wheel of Fortune had fifty slots, forty of which were duds.
Now it had fifty-five slots, and five additional prizes had been added.
One of the symbols added was a horse, which signified a mount. However, unlike the Uncommon Mounts Leone had purchased before, this mount was a Super Rare Mount.
In fact, all the prizes that could be won from the wheel, except for the [???] symbol, had all upgraded to Super Rare!
The [???] signified Epic Grade prizes, which Leone wanted to have so badly!
(A/N: Item rankings are: Common, Uncommon, Rare, Super Rare, Epic, Legendary, Mythic, and Divine.)
However, Daedalus had warned him that the chances of winning items would be much lower now since the grade of the prizes had also gone up.
But Leone wasn’t fazed at all! He believed he had saved up enough luck to at least win one prize from the Wheel of Fortune!
"I think I know how this is going to turn out." Yuni giggled after seeing how pumped up Leone looked.
"I think he might get lucky... I hope." Jason tried to be a little supportive, but for some reason, he just couldn’t imagine Leone winning a prize.
"Youngsters these days are so pessimistic." Kael shook his head before raising his voice. "Great Chieftain! Good luck! I know you can do it! You are the luckiest person alive!"
"I knew I could count on you, Kael!" Leone gave the old man a thumbs up. "Well then. Let’s spin this wheel!"
The young man then spun the wheel, and the children danced to the upbeat music.
When the pointer finally slowed down, it stopped at the [???] symbol, which made Leone do a fist pump.
However, not even a second later, he heard a ticking sound. The pointer moved and stopped at the skull mark, which meant that he had won nothing!
"Huh?!" Leone looked at the pointer in disbelief. "What the..."
Yuni held onto her stomach tightly while doing her best not to laugh. The look on Leone’s face was priceless.
Kael had almost said "As expected of our Great Chieftain!" when he thought that Leone had won a prize. But after seeing the dud, the words he was about to say evaporated into a cough instead.
"Don’t give up, Great Chieftain!" Runa said. "You can do it!"
"Yes! Don’t give up!"
"Great Chieftain is the best!"
"You can do it!"
""Yeah!""
With the children cheering him on, Leone soon regained a bit of his composure. He then spun the wheel a second tim.
Finally, he won a prize!
100 BP.
Only 100 BP.
If this was a few months ago, Leone would have been very thankful. After all, BP was a precious resource. But now, he could passively earn 162 BP every day.
Still, optimistic as ever, he took it as a positive sign. Perhaps good things were about to come.
Leone spun the wheel a third time.
Unfortunately, the wheel once again pointed at a skull mark, making Leone cover his face with both hands.
"Don’t worry, Great Chieftain!" Runa patted her chest. "I will avenge you!"
"Go, Runa!" Leone declared. "Avenge me!"
"Yes!" Runa raised her hand with confidence to reach out to the handle of the spinning wheel.
She then spun it with all of her might, dancing with the other children to the beat of the music.
When the pointer stopped at the skull mark, Runa looked at the wheel in shock.
"Huh?!"
She had genuinely expected to win a prize. So when she suffered the same fate as Leone, she was left in disbelief.
Blitz landed on Runa’s shoulder and patted her cheek. It then raised its hand, telling her it would avenge her as well!
The flying squirrel then jumped on the top of the spinning wheel and started to run, making the wheel turn very quickly.
When it deemed that the speed was enough, it jumped off from the spinning wheel before landing on Leone’s shoulder.
Everyone looked forward to what the flying squirrel would win. For them, Blitz couldn’t possibly mess this one up.
So, everyone’s expressions were as expected. They all looked on in surprise when the pointer once again stopped at a skull mark.
Blitz almost fell off Leone’s shoulder after it saw that it had won nothing!
At the sight, Yuni, who was giggling earlier, finally stopped giggling. Leone not winning a prize from the Wheel of Fortune was something she had already expected.
However, Runa and Blitz also didn’t win anything. This was something she didn’t expect.
Even Leone was surprised at this development, making him wonder if Daedalus’ warning that the chances of getting a prize had become worse was true.
Because of this, he decided to change things up a bit.
"Brann, please spin the wheel!" Leone called out to the chieftain watching from the side.
Brann still had no idea what was happening, but he obeyed Leone’s order without question.
"I’ll just have to spin this thing, right?" Brann asked.
"Yes." Leone nodded. "Just spin it."
Brann nodded and spun the wheel like what the others had done earlier.
He wasn’t expecting anything. Truth be told, he didn’t even know why everyone seemed excited after spinning this weird wheel.
Suddenly, something unexpected happened.
The wheel stopped at the [???] symbol, which made Leone and the rest of the Aslan Tribe look at the Wheel of Fortune in shock.
However, before they could do anything, a light shot out of the Wheel of Fortune as it materialized the prize that Brann had won in front of everyone.
