775: Wearing, soul descending, guiding
“Have you heard?”
At Liu'an No. 7 High School, still in Class 9 of Grade 3, and still in the divine seats in the back row.
Qian Song, in his usual posture, stretched out his elbow and poked Shi Hao:
“Yang Fei from Class 6 next door, Yang Yao from Class 7, Liu Chang from Class 3, plus Xu Wenqian from Grade 2, and Song Qingqing from Grade 1...”
“There are over 10 people in our school who drew a Supporting Character destiny.”
“It feels a bit absurd.”
Yang Dian's ability to take action was very strong.
In the morning, he obtained the quotas for protagonists, supporting characters, and extras from the destiny book, and by noon, he had already discussed with the Think Tank and the Wen Organization to distribute the destiny types via a [lottery] system.
Destiny Realm, Destiny Realm, everything is fate.
In Yang Dian's view, whatever identity or destiny one draws is also a matter of their own fate.
It was the most fitting way for the Destiny Realm's Cultivate methods.
So after making the decision, he had the Wen Organization release an announcement in the afternoon, and the nationwide lottery started at 8 PM sharp.
Since it was a lottery, the results were bound to be good and bad, right?
Qian Song, who had drawn nothing but extras in his hundred draws, let out a long sigh.
“All I drew were extra identities, and the destiny types were either 'Diligent Life,' 'Subsistence Life,' or 'Mediocre Life' and 'Toilsome Life.' The best one I got was 'Small Wealth Life’.”
“Even if I go to the Destiny Realm, I can only earn 0.01 Destiny points per day. I'd need to save for 1000 days to trade for a heaven and earth treasures.”
“Unlike those supporting characters who get 1 Destiny point every day. They only need to survive in the Destiny Realm for 10 days to buy a blind box and open it for treasures. If they can survive for a year, they'll take off instantly.”
“If this lottery counts as a script, then they really did become supporting characters.”
Qian Song kept rambling on, but Shi Hao, sitting beside him, didn't hear a word.
Or rather, since 8 PM last night, he had been in a daze, feeling that the world was somewhat unreal.
Is it lucky to draw a supporting character?
Naturally, it is lucky.
With a total of 12 trillion destiny types, there were only 120,000 supporting character slots, which meant the probability of drawing a supporting character each time was only one in a hundred million.
Everyone draws a hundred times, so the cumulative probability of drawing a supporting character is only one in a million.
Just as Qian Song said, having over 10 supporting characters drawn in a small school is absurdly high.
But when Shi Hao thought about it carefully, he felt the probability was okay.
After all, they are only supporting characters.
There can be many supporting characters, but only the protagonist is unique.
At least in the lottery pool, there is only one protagonist.
The protagonist, with a winning probability of less than one in 12.96 trillion!
And he, got it on the first try.
Protagonist on the first draw.
The destiny type is a protagonist who is a [Child of Luck].
Is this right?
Although he, Shi Hao, shares the same name as the Huang Heavenly Emperor, he knows he is just an ordinary person, as ordinary as can be.
His greatest achievement in life is just being undefeated among his peers.
But the so-called “invincible among peers” is just gilding that his deskmate, Qian Song, put on his face.
True Prodigies have long since crossed the Bottleneck between Mortal and Transcendent Realm in one go and stepped into the Transcendent Realm.
He is nothing more than a mediocre person.
‘A mediocre person like me, am I worthy of being a protagonist?’
Qian Song didn't notice Shi Hao's confusion; he continued to ramble:
“But then again, destiny types are not set in stone.”
“As long as you act well, it's not impossible to Heaven-Defying change your fate.”
“As long as you can promote your destiny type once, you can get a large number of Destiny points and take off instantly.”
“Heavenly Emperor, our Cultivate talent is poor. I Awakened a 'Glutton' ability, and you haven't even Awakened yet. If we want to get into college, counting on the school's pre-exam sprint is definitely hopeless. Why don't we go to the Destiny Realm to make a living?”
“I have a 'Small Wealth' destiny type. Relying on modern thinking to do business, maybe I can go from small wealth to medium wealth, medium wealth to great wealth, and finally promote to a 'Wealthy' supporting character destiny type.”
“Do you have any 'Warrior' or 'Guard' destiny types in what you drew?”
“Let's work together in the Destiny Realm, make it big, and create glory.”
Wang Fei, sitting in front of them, turned her head:
“Do you want to add someone? I drew a 'Coachman' destiny type, I can drive for you.”
She said this to both of them, but Wang Fei's eyes, which seemed to smile, kept staring at Shi Hao.
To know admiration in youth.
The young girl had long since learned how to express her affection.
Unfortunately, in the era of Cultivate, there are many sigma males.
Shi Hao ignored Wang Fei's overtures, and Qian Song shouted loudly:
“What? Coachman?”
“Sister Fei, how could a beauty like you draw such a destiny?”
“Then again, if professions are part of the destiny types, did anyone draw one who works in a brothel, hehehe?”
“Hehehe~”
“Little Qian, are you looking for death?” Wang Fei was angry and embarrassed, picking up the heavy book on the table and hitting Qian Song.
Perhaps Qian Song was just joking, but she really did draw the 'Courtesan' destiny type.
It's normal to draw this destiny. After all, whether it's feudal society or modern society, there is no shortage of such people.
But what if Shi Hao finds out she drew this kind of destiny?
Would he think she is destined for a life of vice?
Shi Hao, who was in a daze, was awakened by a “thud” sound.
Along with his best friend's cry of pain:
“Hiss~ You really are ruthless.”
Looking at the lively scene around him, he smiled again.
‘Why worry so much?’
‘Whether it's a protagonist, a supporting character, or an extra.’
‘Life must go on.’
‘Tonight, I'll go see what the Destiny Realm is all about and spend a day earning 100 Destiny points.’
‘I wonder what treasures I can open from 10 heaven and earth treasures blind boxes...’
...
That night, the moon was bright and the stars were sparse.
After dinner and another hour of Cultivate, Shi Hao, who gained nothing and whose Qi and blood did not increase in the slightest, returned to his room. He looked through the window at the steel canopy about to close in the sky, and finally lay down on the bed.
“Destiny Realm, welcome the arrival of the protagonist!”
Shi Hao, being uncharacteristically chuunibyou for a moment, tapped his bracelet and opened the newly downloaded Destiny App.
“Neural connection successful, starting the journey of 'Destiny'.”
The cold voice of the AI connected to his peripheral nerves and sounded in his cranial cavity, and three options appeared in Shi Hao's eyes.
[Physical Transmigration] [Soul Descent] [Guidance]
Physical Transmigration means physically traveling into the Destiny Realm to cause trouble; the option is grayed out and temporarily unavailable.
Soul Descent is the Soul descending to possess a newly deceased person, entering the Destiny Realm with a first-person perspective and first-person senses.
Guidance means neither Physical Transmigration nor entering the Destiny Realm with a first-person perspective; it only uses text to edit character behavior and guide the character's actions.
“This Guidance seems to be prepared for those who drew destiny types like 'Courtesan' or 'Gigolo' and don't intend to actually experience their lives.”
Muttering to himself, Shi Hao subconsciously clicked on 'Soul Descent', the middle option.
“It counts as Transmigration...”
