Chapter 49 - Golden Thumb Investment Card

Translator: Lav

Editor: Levs

Although the Scepter disliked s.h.i.+ Lei’s question, but just as s.h.i.+ Lei expected, it must explain thoroughly to him about the meaning behind these two awards. 

“The millionaire card is a function card which allows you to experience the life of a real millionaire. Every experience is 24 hours, which is a day. From midnight till the next midnight. From your knowledge, this is equivalent to Cinderella meeting her pumpkin coach. It can make you glorious for one day and go back to your original state at midnight.”



s.h.i.+ Lei nodded as he roughly understood. He then asked: “Then what does this ‘+3’ mean? Does it mean that I can use this millionaire card three times? If I want to continue the millionaire life at midnight, I just need to use another one? I can experience the maximum of three days of life as a millionaire?”

“Mhm, seems like your IQ is still online(1).”

s.h.i.+ Lei smiled, as if he was extremely satisfied with the millionaire card.

But, the Scepter seemed to understand all his thoughts as he immediately said: “What a shallow guy. Life of a millionaire, although it looks amazing, but it is merely a hypocritical enjoyment as it does not increase a single yuan into your a.s.set. And, if you can make sure you complete the missions and level up a few times, the quota you would have by that time will allow you to live like this anyways. I really don’t know how you are so happy about it.”

s.h.i.+ Lei rolled his eyes as he thought that it was none of the Scepter’s business, but quickly, he felt the crus.h.i.+ng pressure from its words.

He could live like a millionaire after levelling up a few times? Then wouldn’t it be even harder for him to finish spending the money? Can I choose to spend the money but not level up?

But of course, this kind of questions could only stay hidden in his heart and not said aloud as even he knew that it was only a daydream. From the black card’s point of view, how could it not let s.h.i.+ Lei level up? If s.h.i.+ Lei really asked, the Scepter would definitely be in disdain and activate his skills of taunting s.h.i.+ Lei a few times.

“Then what’s up with the golden thumb?” s.h.i.+ Lei then asked.

The Scepter seemed to be in resentment as it said: “You really had beginner’s luck. That is called the golden thumb investment card. Just as its name connotes, after having this card, it will make sure that you will only earn and not lose in future investments.” 

Just as s.h.i.+ Lei wanted to open his mouth, the Scepter on the screen jumped a few times and forcefully stopped him mid-sentence.

“Don’t say anything useless, I will explain its functions thoroughly.”

s.h.i.+ Lei shrugged and waited casually.

“I will use this card and generate an app that’s like a phone app. From now on, you can open this app three times every month to check the return rate for your desired investments. After you open the app, you are only required to type physically, or simply say the investment project that you wish to partic.i.p.ate in to the home page of the app. Then, you can set a day for receiving the report for the returns. The app will tell you the return for your investment project on the day set. Whether you earned or lost will be dead clear. If you are someone who only wants to live from the money I provide with you and wait for death, then this card is absolutely useless to you. But to those who wishes to progress, this card will be a weapon that can benefit you in every single way possible. The lowest level for the millionaire card is grade E, whilst the lowest for the investment card is grade S- and the possibility of drawing this investment card out of all the other cards is 1/10,000.”

“1/10.000? But the disk only 36 awards, the lowest would be 1/36!” s.h.i.+ Lei couldn’t help but to trash talk.

“You stupid thing. What you see is simply 36 grids. But in reality, whenever you make a draw, the 36 awards on the disk are random. For your current level, the possibility for the golden thumb card to appear on the disk is already low. Even so you drew it out, it’s not much higher than lotto.”

s.h.i.+ Lei roasted it merciless again: “Eh, don’t be like this. The chance of drawing the double chromosphere is 1/17,000.000. If the chance of this appear on the disk is 1/10,000, considering that 1/36 is the chance of drawing it from the disk, the chance would at most be 1/360,000……”

“Shut up!” The Scepter raged.

s.h.i.+ Lei pouted and roasted it again in a small voice: “Mannerless!”

“You d.a.m.n thing, if you are rude to me, I will……” The Scepter stopped mid-sentence as he realised that after s.h.i.+ Lei saw through its fake authority, it really had nothing to threaten s.h.i.+ Lei. 

But s.h.i.+ Lei let it off as he needed to contact it often. If he really offended the Scepter, it might purposely conceal or miss a part of the black card’s rules, then s.h.i.+ Lei would be done for. The Scepter right now was like the annoying small ghost working under the king of h.e.l.l. Although it did not have much authority, but s.h.i.+ Lei did not have the guts to offend him that much.

“I’m sorry, sorry, it just slipped out of my mouth. You know I study science and engineering and I’m pretty sensitive to numbers. And the biggest dream for a loser like me is to win the double chromosphere award, so my impressions on the chance of winning it is rather high. Your excellency, please don’t pull yourself to my level. In fact, I know that it is already a rather low chance of the black card picking me out of more than 70 billion people in the world. Plus the 1/360,000 chance of drawing the investment card, this is equivalent to 1 out of a few millions! It is also a fact that I had beginner’s luck today, so how is what you said wrong? It is correct!”

Although the Scepter was astonished by the sudden drastic change is s.h.i.+ Lei’s att.i.tude, but it liked people flattering him, hence, s.h.i.+ Lei’s words sounded rather melodic in its ears.

“Seeing that your att.i.tude is rather sincere, I’ll forgive you this time. No next time! About this investment card, you need to remember that you only have three chances to check every month. After you open the app, it doesn’t matter whether you’ve actually invested or not, one chance will be taken off. One chance is taken off as soon as you open the app. If you didn’t check up to three times per month, the chances will not acc.u.mulate to the next month and they will be become invalid. The midnight of every day of every month will refresh the chances you have that month. Remember, this card is targeted to any! Kind! Of! Investment! I think you need to consider the definition of ‘any’!”

s.h.i.+ Lei’s heart missed a beat as he more or less understood that the so-called investment did not only indicate to investments on money, but there are also other ways that could be counted within the range of investing.

“You made my other chances to make the draws only when I complete the agreement without a reason, that seems a bit unreasonable? What if you let me use the other two chances and kill me if I don’t complete the Agreement within a year’s time?” s.h.i.+ Lei did not have much hopes but he wanted to try anyways.

The Scepter snorted coldly: “What a daydream!”

s.h.i.+ Lei was persistent: “Those chances to make the draw belong to me anyways, what’s the difference of doing it now or later? You extended it on your side, you need to at least give me an explanation.” s.h.i.+ Lei expected the Scepter to be arrogant, but it fell silent, as if it was pondering something.

After a while, the Scepter said rather angrily: “What a greedy guy. Fine, although it is part of the rule that you can only make the draws after you complete the Agreement, but it will indeed have slight impacts on you. It is impossible for you make the draw right now, but for compensation, I will gift you a card.”

As it said that, another black card appeared on the screen in the name of ‘predictions come true”.
