The panel interface wasn't too complicated.
Once Xi Shenlian focused his attention on the options, he would naturally understand them.
For example, [Inherent Talent] referred to the abilities he was born with. They couldn't be canceled or toggled off and would remain active at all times.
[Additional Talent] referred to talents obtained through the system. These could be manually activated, like some kind of optional accessory.
As for system items…
That didn't need much explanation.
All system items obtained from the system, no matter how big or small, could be stored unconditionally.
Same with the built-in system space.
People who knew, knew.
It was basically growth-type space equipment!
A classic.
You could use it freely, but once you had it, there was no going back.
The learning points and daily lottery draws were more interesting.
Both were automatic benefits—one point added per day, no need to earn or fight for them.
The former was super useful to Xi Shenlian.
Because his strength had increased too fast, he was finding it difficult to control himself. One wrong move and things broke.
Even his old mobile phone—he barely gripped it, and the screen cracked this morning.
Now he didn't dare to hold it again.
Scared it'd explode in his hands.
He couldn't even order takeout properly.
Which meant—he only ate one meal all day.
But with a learning opportunity like this—where seven days of learning only took a moment in the real world—it might help him adapt to his rapidly growing strength.
At the very least…
It could stop him from breaking things so easily, right?
Or at least lower the risk?
It would be nice to not accidentally kill or injure someone just by touching them.
A guy who could lift a car with one hand, wandering around without control—it was like a human steamroller. Too dangerous.
That's why he didn't dare leave the house.
In this world, the education for Awakened people said:
When someone first awakens, don't wander around or get too close to loved ones.
Otherwise, accidents could happen.
Best thing to do?
Call the authorities.
They'd send someone to deliver food and do a health check, register your info, maybe try to recruit you into a department.
And yeah…
You'd probably end up on the news or something.
If the government could reach your friends and family, they'd try to talk you into "doing the right thing," and those people would try to convince you in turn.
A full emotional combo attack.
Generally speaking?
Hard to say no.
Most people would give in and join the system right then and there.
To be fair…
That path wasn't bad.
The official treatment was solid, and friends and family could get stable jobs too.
But the tradeoff?
Less freedom.
So that setup was more suitable for those with families to support.
Xi Shenlian?
Nah.
No family. No friends to worry about. No responsibilities.
As long as he had food and clothes, he was good.
Why get tangled up in the government's net?
Not when he had grand dreams.
Dreams of meeting a rich and beautiful woman, getting supported, and living the chill life.
Work? For what?
If he could flirt his way into a luxury lifestyle, then hell no—he wasn't clocking in anywhere.
So even after confirming his status as an Awakened, Xi Shenlian had no plans to report it. He'd rather go hungry for another two meals.
As for the [Daily Mood Value Lottery Chance]—
That was another awesome part of the system.
Based on what he read, this lottery was completely free, no strings attached.
Whatever you drew would be something you didn't hate and actually found useful.
But just how useful or likable it was…
That was another matter.
Whether you pulled something great or average depended mostly on your mood that day.
The better your mood, the better the chances of drawing something awesome.
If your mood was crap, well—odds dropped.
Hence the name: [Daily Mood Value Lottery Chance].
Mood directly influenced luck.
Even so, even with a terrible mood, it was still possible to get something good.
And get this—
He could even somewhat influence the type of item he pulled.
The more he wanted a certain kind of thing, the higher the chances it'd appear in the pool.
It was like a lottery system with a mind-lock feature.
Heck, you could even call it a universal wish-granting machine.
The number of draws increased by one every day.
Just think hard about what you want.
Be in a good mood.
And your odds would skyrocket!
Now then.
He looked at his draw count for the day.
Since he had one, why not use it?
He didn't hesitate.
"Give me something I can use right now..."
Right after he muttered that, a lottery pop-up appeared in his mind.
Six hundred and sixty-six spinning reels.
All rotating at high speed.
With some very old-school, classic lottery background music.
As the music played, each reel spun so fast, he couldn't make out any details.
Then a red button popped up.
That was the stop button.
He knew from the feedback—when he pressed it, all the reels would stop, and he'd get to pick one.
Each reel was slightly different depending on his thoughts and mood.
So if his desire was strong enough…
More of the reels would contain the kind of stuff he needed most.
[Stop]!
The reels halted.
They all looked identical.
Xi Shenlian didn't bother examining them.
They were the same anyway.
So, he just picked one at random.
Immediately, the other 665 vanished.
The one he picked floated toward him.
And then—
Click!
It popped open.
Inside was a glowing crystal card with a soft purple shine, covered in faint runes and symbols.
