I really am a fortune teller

Chapter 124 I Just Love Generous People Like This

"The system is currently analyzing the data. It has already deducted 5 million merit points from the host. The analysis is expected to take more than half an hour. The system will analyze all the clues on the host. During your free time, the system recommends that you use the lottery system. It costs 1,000 merit points per draw. This is a new feature."

The system's voice became playful.

Sure enough, the system was always happiest when it was fed merit.

The lottery system—by the way, Wei Chen hadn't paid much attention to it after upgrading the system, since there were just too many other things to do back then.

Now I finally remembered this so-called lottery system.

After Wei Chen opened the lottery system, a huge disc appeared in front of him.

That wasn't all; the disc was divided into ten sections. Nine of the ten sections were blank, with four large characters written on them: "Thank you for your patronage."

There was only one treasure chest in one of the compartments. Wei Chen looked at the treasure chest with a pained expression. The chest said: "For just one thousand merit points, you can draw any item from the shop. It's a guaranteed profit."

I don't believe you for a second.

There are three buttons on the bottom of the large disc: one to draw, ten to draw, and one hundred to draw.

Anything produced by the system is bound to be of high quality. This large disc is so lifelike, it looks just like the real thing.

Wei Chen pressed the button to draw once, expressionless.

Then, the large disc quickly began to roll.

"Thank you for your patronage."

A pleasant female voice rang in Wei Chen's ears.

Haha! What happened to the promise of guaranteed profits?

It's all a fucking scam.

Wei Chen clicked several times in a row to draw once, but didn't see a single thing.

Suddenly, Wei Chen heard the system's voice in his ear, but it wasn't the sound of a successful analysis. Instead, it said, "Host, please note that if you want to draw a lottery, one hundred times is the easiest way to get a top-tier item. It's all about getting rich!"

10 per time? Why don't you just rob someone?

You throw out 10 and don't see a single thing.

Two 10s were thrown out, and not a single penny was seen.

Three 10s were thrown out, and not a single penny was seen.

Four 10s were thrown out, and not a single penny was seen.

If you throw away five 10s, what...does that amount to a single book?

Despite a probability of 1/10, Wei Chen somehow managed to draw a 1/500 probability.

The odds of this happening are unbelievable.

Wei Chen opened the book, which was titled "Star Tempering Technique".

The name sounds nice, but when I checked the store, I found that this book, "Star Tempering Technique," requires 5000 million merit points to redeem.

Wei Chen was so excited that his hands trembled.

However, when he opened the book, he found two tiny characters in the bottom right corner that were almost invisible unless you looked closely.

Volume One.

In other words, the "Star Tempering Technique" in his hand is only the first volume?

"System, how many volumes does the Star Tempering Technique actually have?" Wei Chen couldn't help but ask.

"Ten volumes! If you want the rest, I can give you a discount. After deducting the 50 you already spent, the remaining 'Star Tempering Technique' will only cost you 4950 million." It was truly touching that the system took the time to serve Wei Chen even while it was analyzing the data.

What's so touching about that?

Your math teacher must have been a PE teacher.

A complete copy of the "Star Tempering Body Technique" requires 5000 million merit points. Wei Chen already has one volume, so the remaining nine volumes should only cost 4500 million. How was 4950 million calculated?

Oh right, it's calculated based on the cost of Wei Chen's lottery draw, right?

It’s a rip off.

Wei Chen gritted his teeth and opened the "Star Tempering Technique".

I initially thought it was a particularly powerful secret manual, but to my surprise, when I opened it, there was a line of text: "After using this book, you can obtain the effect of body tempering, which can increase bloodline power by 1.5. Bloodline level 2 is required."

For someone who knows no martial arts at all, being able to learn simply by opening a book and achieve the effects of body tempering is already quite good. At least they don't have to start practicing all over again, right?

This is very friendly to a lazy person or a lazy person, but what does Bloodline 2 mean?

Wei Chen glanced at his bloodline with a sense of despair: 1.2. Every 0.1 of bloodline value requires 1000 million merit points, meaning Wei Chen needs to spend 8000 million merit points to raise his bloodline to 2 before he can use this book and raise it to 3.5.

Although it only costs 50 merit points to upgrade the bloodline to 1.5, which is indeed a good deal, you need to have that foundation first.

Wei Chen was not a pay-to-win player, so he only had one path: to exercise and naturally increase his bloodline.

I don't know when I'll be able to use this manual.

It's so tragic to even think about it.

"You can directly increase your merit points." The system's voice, like heavenly music, rang in Wei Chen's ears: "The analysis is complete. 8000 million merit points is a small number for you. Don't forget, you are in the Mirror World now, where there are many ghosts."

That makes sense.

Wei Chen coughed and said, "Let me see your analysis results."

"The system's analysis is flawless. If you believe there are errors, you can use the Divine Prophecy." The system's voice was upright and unyielding: "Based on your current situation, the system has analyzed the following three points:"

First, the Wei family's level of respect for you.

Based on our system's observations, the old man you saw earlier was probably your grandfather. He values ​​you highly, but he has to put on a show in front of his family, since all your meridians are broken and you can't cultivate anymore.

The large rock you later encountered was the ancestor of the Wei family, who used special means to forcibly leave his soul in this world to guide the operation of the entire Wei family.

"Abandoning you in Xihe Town to fend for yourself is for two reasons. First, it's to protect you. The less the Wei family cares about you, the less likely you are to be targeted by outsiders. Second, it's also a deliberate act. There are corrupt elements within the Wei family, but it's hard to say exactly who. If you want a deeper analysis, you'll need to pay 1 million merit points before I can find out which corrupt element it is."

At this point, Wei Chen said with a displeased expression, "All you do all day is ask me for merit points. Isn't that too expensive?"

"It's not expensive. From my analysis just now, the Wei family's main branch does not seem to treat you very well on the surface, but in reality, they are quite good to you. Why have you never thought about why your father was willing to return to Xihe Town if the Wei family really wasn't good? Was it just because of your mother?" the system asked calmly.
