A fat man who was reborn from the dead? He transforms into a perfect male god in a week.

Chapter 32: Crazy Upgrades and System Shopping Spree After a Sudden Riches – Gamblers Will Never Get

It was late at night.

Jiang Chen lay on the bed, his hands behind his head, staring at the ceiling.

The whispers from the parents' room next door finally stopped. The old-fashioned wall clock ticked away, and occasionally a stray cat's meow could be heard from outside the window.

But he wasn't sleepy at all.

It wasn't excitement, nor anxiety, but rather... a sense of emptiness after suddenly becoming rich.

Yes, it means getting rich overnight.

With a thought, a semi-transparent system panel immediately appeared before him, its blue light standing out conspicuously in the darkness.

Name: Jiang Chen

Age: 18

【Height: 178cm】

Weight: 100kg (200 jin)

[Five senses: 90]

IQ: 140

[Physical Fitness: 30]

【Charm: 70】

[Skills: Automatically clears negative physical conditions daily; Super memory, photographic memory; Basketball proficiency]

[Shop: Now Open]

[Amazing Value: 6600]

"Six thousand six..."

Jiang Chen stared at the number, his lips curving into a wide grin that reached his ears.

Since his rebirth, starting from a negative charm value, he has been showing off and slapping faces all the way, from getting full marks in monthly exams to dominating in basketball, and it was not easy for him to accumulate so many amazing points.

Before, I was always carefully budgeting every penny, spending only tens or hundreds of dollars at a time. Now, suddenly having a huge sum of six thousand six hundred dollars in my hands, that feeling...

"It's like a poor guy suddenly winning the lottery; even though he knows he'll eventually spend it all, it's still awesome!"

Jiang Chen was screaming inwardly.

But even though it's enjoyable, you still have to spend the money you need to.

His current panel data looks impressive, but there's actually a lot of room for improvement.

"First and foremost, intelligence..."

Jiang Chen stared at the number "140" and fell into deep thought.

140 points is just the threshold for genius.

What level is considered a true top genius?

Hawking was 165, Einstein was 170, Galileo was 185, Newton was 192, and Gauss, that freak, was even 275.

Where has he even gotten yet?

Moreover, the college entrance examination has a full score of 750 points, and the difficulty is not even on the same level as the monthly exam.

The monthly exams are set by the school itself, and there's a limit to how difficult they can be.

The National College Entrance Examination (NCEE) is a unified exam across the province and the country, and the old foxes in the exam-setting team deliberately set traps and pitfalls.

Although he now possesses a photographic memory, an IQ of 140, and has a full reserve of high school knowledge, to say that he will definitely get a perfect score on the college entrance exam...

"It's about 50/50, maybe 60/40 at most, I'll take 60."

Jiang Chen was making plans in his mind.

This is not enough, far from enough.

He's a man who's going to make a billion dollars, how can you pin your hopes on probability?

"System, exchange some intelligence for me! Start with... 60 points!"

Jiang Chen was full of ambition, planning to raise his IQ to 200 in one go, directly surpassing Hawking and Einstein, and stepping on Newton and Galileo, so that he would be a sure thing to get a perfect score on the college entrance exam.

however……

[Ding! IQ +20, consuming 2000 Amazing Points, Current IQ: 160]

[Note: The IQ exchange rate has reached its current maximum (100:1). The exchange rate will be increased to 1000:1 in the future.]

Jiang Chen: "???"

He paused for two seconds, then sat up abruptly from the bed.

"Holy crap? System, are you kidding me?"

「一开始兑换才10:1,后来涨到100:1我忍了,现在还要涨到1000:1?」

"Is this inflation? Or is it price gouging?"

Jiang Chen mentally ranted and raved.

But the system completely ignored him; the numbers on the panel were just there, cold and impersonal.

[Amazing Value: 4600]

IQ: 160

"Alright, alright..."

Jiang Chen sighed and lay back down.

With an IQ of 160, although it is still far from his expected 200, he has definitely entered the ranks of top geniuses.

He closed his eyes and felt it.

That feeling... was very subtle.

Just as the brain was a supercomputer before, it has now been upgraded to a super supercomputer.

Thinking speed has increased dramatically, and information processing ability has improved exponentially. Previously, I could only get the answer to a problem in seconds, but now I can get the answer in almost milliseconds.

And it's not just about speed.

It is even more "clear".

Just like dusty lenses being wiped until they shine, or blurry drawings suddenly turning into high-definition 3D models.

In the past, when he looked at a math problem, he could instantly think of three solutions.

just now……

He can instantly think of ten solutions, and can even simulate the calculation steps, time consumption, and error probability of each solution in his mind. He can even predict which solution the examiner will give full marks to.

"Is this the power of an IQ of 160?"

Jiang Chen opened his eyes, his gaze frighteningly bright.

He's a bit out of control.

4600 points of amazing value, although it can only be exchanged for 4 more points of intelligence, every little bit helps!

However, after hesitating for three seconds, he held back.

"Good steel should be used on the blade. Exchanging 4 points for intelligence now won't have a significant effect. It's better to improve other things first."

He looked at the "Constitution: 30" on the panel.

Three times the physical fitness of an average person sounds impressive, but in reality, it's only at the level of a national first-class athlete.

Compared to those world's top monsters, there's still a gap.

"System, exchange for physique points! 4600 points, exchange them all!"

[Ding! Constitution +20, consuming 2000 Amazing Points, Current Constitution: 50]

[Note: The exchange rate for Constitution has reached its current maximum (100:1). The exchange rate will be increased to 1000:1 in the future.]

Jiang Chen: "..."

He was too lazy to even complain anymore.

This system is a swindler, always trying to cheat its host.

However, his constitution is only 50 points...

Jiang Chen stood up and clenched his fist.

"Buzz!!!"

He felt a slight tremor in his arm muscles, not a shaking, but a feeling of... power overflowing.

He gently pinched it.

"Click."

He pinched a tiny crack into the wooden railing at the head of the bed.

Jiang Chen was startled and quickly let go.

"This power..."

He looked down at his hands, then looked up at the ceiling.

Then he did something very childish.

Jump from the spot.

Without a running start or any preparation, just a slight bend in the knees and a light leap.

"Whoosh!"

His head almost hit the ceiling.

The ceiling height of the old residential building is about 2.8 meters. When he jumped, his head was at most one centimeter away from the ceiling.

In other words, he can easily jump more than one meter vertically.

"Holy crap..."

Jiang Chen landed lightly, without making a sound.

He used to watch NBA games and thought those springy guys who could jump 1.2 or 1.3 meters vertically were incredibly awesome.

He can easily jump over a meter now, and if he were to unleash his full power...

"Can't take off?"

Jiang Chen excitedly tried it out a few times in the room.

A punch, accompanied by wind.

A kick, breaking through the air.

Push-ups are easy to do with one hand, like it's child's play.

Five times the physical fitness of an average person—what does that mean?

World record in weightlifting? He can break it easily.

The world record for the 100-meter sprint? He could easily get under 9 seconds even if he held back.

High jump and long jump? Those are child's play.

"If I were to participate in the Olympics now..."

A bold idea suddenly popped into Jiang Chen's mind.

In August 2016, the Rio Olympics took place.

If he could represent the country and win all the gold medals in track and field, weightlifting, high jump, and long jump, and break a bunch of world records along the way...

How many people would be amazed by that?

Nationwide? Worldwide?

"Won't the level of amazement be off the charts then?"

Jiang Chenguang felt his heart race just thinking about it.

Millions? Tens of millions? Hundreds of millions?

With so many amazing points, his IQ would be pushed to 300, his physique to 100, and his facial features to 100. If he bought all the items in the system shop, wouldn't he be incredibly awesome?

but……

"It's only the end of April now, the Olympics are still a long way off, and the national team has probably already been formed. I have neither achievements nor connections, so it will be quite difficult for me to participate."

Jiang Chen shook his head, temporarily suppressing this unrealistic idea.

The top priority right now is still to get a perfect score on the college entrance exam.

He looked at the system panel.

[Amazing Value: 2600]

"Two thousand six hundred points... I'm broke."

Jiang Chen sighed.

But since the money's already spent, the rest needs to be arranged properly.

He opened the [Shop] interface.

The first layer of the product list expands in a flash.

[Attribute Exchange Coupon (100 points)]...pass, it's more cost-effective to exchange directly.

[Body Optimization Fluid (100 points)]...pass, his body is now in the golden ratio.

【Aura of Charm - Single Trial Pack (100 Points)】

Jiang Chen's gaze lingered here.

I'm going shopping and hiking with Da Tang tomorrow and the day after. It's definitely not appropriate to be too pretentious with my academic genius aura.

Refined? Too boring.

Awesome? Scary.

Feminine? Ugh.

A roguish charm?

Jiang Chen touched his bald head and grinned.

"This is it."

[Ding! Consumed 100 Amazing Points, obtained "Sassy and Cool Aura (24 hours)"]

2500 points remain.

Jiang Chen looked at the next one.

【Skill Blind Box (100 points)】

The gambler was ecstatic.

He unlocked a basketball proficiency skill in the afternoon, earning him several thousand points of amazing value.

Now that you have 2500 in your hands, should you take another gamble?

"Take a chance, and your bicycle might turn into a motorcycle!"

Jiang Chen gritted his teeth.

"System, open ten for me!"

[Ding! Consumed 1000 Amazing Points to open 10 Skill Blind Boxes]

Swish!

The next second, ten blind boxes exploded in his mind one after another.

It's dazzling and has amazing special effects.

then……

[Ding! Thank you for your patronage!]

[Ding! Thank you for your patronage!]

[Ding! Thank you for your patronage!]

[Ding! Thank you for your patronage!]

[Ding! Thank you for your patronage!]

Five consecutive "Thank you for your patronage" messages completely stunned Jiang Chen.

"Damn it..."

He clutched his chest, feeling like he was about to have a heart attack.

Five hundred points! That's five hundred amazing points!

So it's all gone like this?

"Gamblers deserve a terrible death, gamblers deserve a terrible death..."

Jiang Chen silently recited in his heart.

He also vowed to always return the favor with "thank you for your patronage" and never touch those lousy blind boxes again.

Perhaps his resentment was too strong, because the system finally gave some response.
