Ye Xi had been about to sleep when the Wish System suddenly activated!
Who could sleep now?!
The game's charm lay in this wondrous world, but what hooked people most was wishing!
He sat up straight, and with a mere thought, a screen appeared in his mind.
[Wish System]: Consume Primogems to obtain various items.
Just like in the game, each wish cost 160 Primogems.
The rules were unchanged, but what Ye Xi anticipated most were the rewards.
Ye Xi: Destroy this world!!!
He immediately checked the reward list, and when he saw what was inside, his initial doubt turned to shock!
[Amos' Bow]
[Mistsplitter Reforged]
[Thundering Pulse]
[Engulfing Lightning]
All these dazzling five-star weapons were there!
And plenty of other weapons besides!
Ever since arriving on the Teyvat Continent, Ye Xi had wondered why characters like Yae Miko didn't have their own signature weapons.
Raiden Ei used the one her sister Baal gave her, [Dreams of Sword Art], but her polearm was just a casual spear she forged.
Kamisato Ayaka's katana was merely a so-called "famed blade."
Now with the Wish System, he just needed Primogems to draw weapons!
The artifact list was too long; Ye Xi skipped those rewards to see if there was anything beyond weapons.
Soon, a ripple stirred in his heart.
Not just weapons—what shocked Ye Xi most was that there were even...
[Drinking Dew]
[Crystal Clear]
[Harbinger of Dawn]
These odd names would baffle most players—they wouldn't know what they were!
Only a rare few could guess!
But for him, the director in charge of character designs and more, they felt intimately familiar!
These were Constellations!
The distant stars in the sky!
[Drinking Dew] was Ganyu's first Constellation!
And there were others besides first ones!
[Crystal Clear] was, no doubt, the Constellation for Xiangling, sleeping in the cabin next door.
Only [Harbinger of Dawn] made Ye Xi's heart twitch.
That was Qiqi's Constellation...
Ye Xi shook his head and spent a while going through the full reward list.
He found the rewards incredibly varied—not just weapons and Constellations, but other items too.
Like one he was super curious about now: coconut milk.
This was actually a four-star item!
Hard to imagine why coconut milk counted as an item.
Couldn't you just make it with coconuts and milk?
Why draw it with Primogems—and as a four-star no less!
Utterly ridiculous!
'Anyway, time to draw!'
With 1600 Primogems right there, any player who could resist wishing was either in sage mode or just couldn't!
He jumped back to the wish interface.
At this point, he hesitated a bit.
Draw one by one?
Or go for a ten-pull?
In those [Wish Metaphysics Guides], plenty of big spenders said single pulls were better for results.
But others refuted it.
After agonizing for a few minutes, Ye Xi made up his mind.
Wishing had to be satisfying all at once!
Single pulls were no fun!
Sometimes, the thrill of gaming was that final sprint!
So, draw!
'Sacrificing ten years of my former colleagues' lifespans! Give me the goods!'
His intent activated the Wish System.
1600 Primogems vanished in an instant, and the interface turned into a starry sky.
In the brilliant galaxy, a few stars seemed to loosen, falling from the night curtain like shooting stars.
The stars became white light, streaking across the sky.
In a flash, the white turned purple.
Ye Xi sighed.
As expected of an old non-lucky player—how could he get gold?
Looks like the colleagues' lifespans were spent; they wouldn't last long without good eats.
Back in his old life, he'd joke like that with colleagues while drawing.
At first, he scoffed, but then they kept getting gold!
Single pull gold!
Ten-pull double gold!
Monthly pass full roster!
Even characters with Constellations!
Totally absurd!
Later, when he wanted to "sacrifice" them too, he kicked the bucket and ended up in Teyvat.
'Whatever, whatever. Drawing is all luck—metaphysics doesn't work...'
But as soon as the thought formed, the purple light shifted to gold.
Holy—!
'Golden legend!!!'
His heart leaped with joy. Just as he was about to check the reward, a golden glow appeared before him.
Qiqi [Harbinger of Dawn]
Ye Xi collapsed onto the bed.
Can't escape it!
Fate's will at work!
The [Will of Seven]!
Terrifying.
After a few minutes of despair on the bed, Ye Xi faced reality.
Overall, he was an optimist.
If half a cup of water was placed before him, three thoughts:
First: I still have half a cup to drink!
Second: I'm down to only half a cup.
Third: This cup of water's about to—splash (silenced)
Ye Xi would unhesitatingly pick the first.
If not for that optimism, he wouldn't have accepted arriving in Teyvat so quickly.
Life had to go on!
He checked the second reward.
Suddenly, golden light flashed again.
Ye Xi bolted up in shock!
'Holy crap, double gold!!!'
'I actually got a ten-pull double gold!!!'
The ultimate joy banished all sleepiness.
This was his first double gold ever!
Way too lucky!!!
He focused his gaze.
Mona [Drowning in Revelry]
Ye Xi flopped back onto the bed.
Exhausted. Destroy it all.
