The sky in September is clear and bright, and the autumn wind blows, bringing a hint of coolness. In the game Genshin Impact, Zhongli, the majestic and calm rock lord, has returned to the vision of many players with the release of version 4.0. Starting from September 5, players can re-draw this character in the game. For players who don’t have him yet, this is undoubtedly a long-awaited event.
The card drawing in the game seems simple on the surface, but it is just a game of numbers and probability, but it actually touches the heartstrings of many people. Generally speaking, the “bottom line” mechanism set by the game manufacturer allows most players to get Zhongli within eighty to ninety card draws. However, fate always has its uncertainties. If you accidentally hit other five-star permanent characters during the card drawing process, the chance of drawing Zhongli will be extended, and it will take about one hundred and fifty to one hundred and eighty attempts. This long wait is very similar to those unpredictable encounters in real life.
Speaking of costs, the resources required to draw Zhongli should not be underestimated. At current prices, two sets of 6480 Genesis Crystals equal about three hundred dollars, which is usually enough to exchange for this character. If you are unlucky, you may need three sets of 6480 Genesis Crystals, which is a considerable expense for many players. The recharge process needs to be repeated three times, and each time it seems to test the player’s determination.
Although such card drawing is an in-game operation, it faintly reflects the epitome of real life. In our daily lives, we continue to invest time and money in the hope of achieving our ideals and goals. Waiting and hope are intertwined, and the efforts and rewards are unpredictable. The loss and joy experienced by many people in card drawing are just like the portrayal of gains and losses in life.
Card drawing is not only a digital game, but also a psychological experience. People learn to wait through repeated attempts and temper their patience after repeated disappointments. Zhongli in the game is like a stable mountain, guarding the player’s dream. Perhaps it is this kind of protection that makes people willing to keep moving forward, even if the road ahead is long.
When night falls, the light of the mobile phone screen reflects the faces of the players. The process of card drawing has become a fragment of life, which is both a challenge and a hope. We cannot predict the results, but we still look forward to it and hold hope.
This experience reminds us that many beautiful things in life come from persistence and waiting. Although the process of card drawing is full of variables, it is precious because of this. Every investment becomes a footnote to growth, and every expectation has achieved the power to move forward.
I hope that every player can keep the inner peace on this long journey and welcome their own Zhongli and light.
