Chapter 35: If My Luck Is Good

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

As it was still early, the 4S store also had cars on the spot. Since Lin Shu had paid for the car in full, the salesman quickly helped Lin Shu with the relevant procedures and went to the Department of Motor Vehicles with him to get a license.

After the license plate and other procedures were done, Lin Shu directly pasted the newbie’s driving sign on the road and drove back to the company’s dormitory.

It had to be said that Lin Shu’s driving skills were pretty good. He drove all the way back to the dormitory without any accidents.

On the way back, he went to the bank and transferred ¥200,000 to his mother’s bank account. He hoped that his parents would not work too hard.

Lin Shu drove past the lottery shop in front of him and noticed that there was a banner at the entrance. It was a red inflatable arch, and a line was clearly written on the banner…

“Congratulations from our shop for winning the second prize of the two-colored ball, 1.7 million yuan!”

It was obvious that was meant for Lin Shu winning the second prize.

Lin Shu hoped that the boss didn’t remember him. It would be best if no one knew.

After returning to the dormitory, Lin Shu’s initial excitement gradually calmed down. After spending a day’s worth of money, Lin Shu still had ¥400,000 in his available balance.

The house would be handed over in November, and there would still be renovations to be done later. He also had to buy a parking space…

Lin Shu shook his head and decided not to think about this for now.

Even though winning the lottery didn’t really make him rich overnight or grant him financial freedom, Lin Shu was already very clear about what this system meant to him.

In addition to the divine items that Lin Shu had obtained and the additional attribute points, Lin Shu’s entire person had changed. He was now someone who had a car, a house, and a mortgage.

Lin Shu stared at his personal virtual panel and looked at his personal information.

Name: Lin Shu

Level: Level 21

Exp. Points: 40016/120000

Attributes: Spirit 4, Strength 2, Constitution 3, Agility 3, Intelligent 3, Charisma 4, Luck 4

Skills: Grade Three Drawing, Grade Nine Driving

Title: Newbie

Achievement: Hot-Blooded Hero

Balance: 18,208 Gold Coins

…

Lin Shu was now Level 21 and he accumulated 40,016/120,000 in his experience bar.

Therefore, he had to work even harder to level up, get better items, and unlock the Item Mall as soon as possible.

Another thing was that he still had to work hard to save Gold Coins. Looking at the prices of the items that had been revealed earlier, they were all very expensive. The real price was sky-high, and he had to earn more Exp. Points and Gold Coins now. Otherwise, even if he waited until he unlocked the Item Mall at a later level, he might not be able to afford them.

That would really be too depressing!

He didn’t want to see the sentence when he bought the items in the Item Mall in the future and—

Beep!

You do not have enough Gold Coins to purchase this item.

That would be really awkward.

Lin Shu’s eyes moved away from the Wishing Talisman. His inventory was now empty except for this talisman that looked good but had no use, just like how he was poor.

He didn’t know what kind of divine items and equipment would be available after he unlocked the Item Mall.

If he wanted to buy another Eye of Prophecy…

Lin Shu glanced at his Gold Coins balance. It was another sky-high price of a property and he wouldn’t be able to afford it!

‘I wonder If I could pay for the items in the Item Mall with installment later…’ Lin Shu thought.

…

After calming down, Lin Shu started to do the revision and continued to farm Exp. Points.

Lin Shu could still get Gold Coins if he study for an hour every day. All he needs to do is study hard!

The next day.

As usual, Lin Shu was woken up by his alarm and got up early to go to work. He still had four days of work left. Apart from the one day of leave, he took yesterday, he could only rest for one week. He only needed to settle his resignation and related procedures in the next eleven days.

Therefore, Lin Shu was very excited. Of course, the main reason was also because of the Exp. Points that he could earn.

After he resigned, he might not be able to farm Exp. Points from work or slaying office monsters for a long time.

Although the office was very dangerous, danger and monsters coexisted. Lin Shu even wondered if he should change to an even worse place to kill the monsters.

Of course, such thought only flashed through his mind.

The Exp. Points gained from learning were also quite a lot, especially from continuous learning. The accumulated Exp. Points were also quite desirable.

“Lin Shu, you’ll be able to rest in a few days,” said Huang Wen.

Huang Wen seek Lin Shu to proofread his work while he talked to him about his resignation.

“Yeah, I’ll treat you guys to a meal this weekend,” Lin Shu nodded and said.

Since Lin Shu was leaving, he also planned to treat some of his colleagues who he had a good relationship with to a meal. They were colleagues, and some colleagues came and went. Although it was rare for colleagues to continue to keep in touch after leaving their jobs, they could still keep in touch since they were still in the same city after all.

Huang Wen nodded and said, “Sure. First, I’d like to congratulate you on getting out of your misery, Lin Shu.”

Lin Shu smiled noncommittally.

“Oh right, Lin Shu, did you hear? Someone won 1.7 million yuan at the lottery shop opposite our company.”

The news spread throughout the company. After all, everyone was nearby, so they obviously saw the banner.

“I’ve heard about it,” said Lin Shu.

Lin Shu’s expression remained unchanged as he replied calmly.

Lin Shu felt that he was quite talented in acting. He wasn’t nervous at all, as if he was talking about someone else’s business.

“That person is so lucky. It would be great if I won the prize. Then I can quit my job,” Huang Wen said enviously.

“What are you thinking? 1.7 million is enough to make you quit work? It’ll be gone after buying a house.” said Lin Shu.

When Huang Wen heard Lin Shu’s words, the corners of his mouth twitched. He couldn’t help but nod in agreement. It was indeed the case. However, he still had an envious look on his face as he said, “But I’m really envious. That person is so lucky.”

A smile appeared on Lin Shu’s face. For he felt that he was pretty lucky.

Of course, it wasn’t just because Lin Shu was lucky, but also because he had a good character. Otherwise, Lin Shu wouldn’t have obtained such a divine item as the Eye of Prophecy.

‘Good luck?’ Lin Shu thought.

Lin Shu’s eyes lit up. He felt that he was lucky to have won the second prize. However, he felt that the most important reason was because of the divine item Eye of Prophecy. However, he was really lucky to have won the second prize so soon.

Lin Shu frowned slightly. When he first added one point to his Luck attribute, he immediately went to buy two lottery tickets. Still, he didn’t win either. His luck wasn’t as good as he thought. Perhaps luck itself was an unpredictable attribute point, and it was only slightly stronger than before. Yet, it seemed that after he leveled up, he won the lottery in a few days. Could it be that the higher the level, the more obvious the effect of the enhancement of the attribute point? Lin Shu can’t help but wonder.

Reminder: Players are required to explore the game on their own. The system reserves the right to explain everything.

A game that required oneself to explore.

From the looks of it, the higher the level, the more obvious the change in attributes would be.

Of course, the chance of winning the lottery was really small. If it wasn’t for the Eye of Prophecy that saw the numbers, Lin Shu might not have won even if he kept buying.

In that case, his luck was indeed getting better.

If the probability of winning the lottery was too low, it would be difficult even if Lin Shu’s luck was good. Probably Lin Shu could try other things like investing in stocks or funds.

If Lin Shu is lucky, he’d probably won’t lose anything.
