C20 A Chance to Make a Wish Without Any Restrictions
Emerging from the registration office, Yang Ling was in high spirits. He had not only successfully enrolled but also lent a hand to a stunning woman, earning himself a bit of Wish Value. It was an unexpected delight.
As he made his way to Xinhua Bookstore, Yang Ling mulled over recent events. Just last night, he had broken Tian Chaoyan's leg. Knowing Tian's temperament, retaliation was inevitable, and it wouldn't be as simple as a few bodyguards this time. Yang Ling knew he had to bolster his strength without delay.
He had five free attribute points at his disposal. After a brief moment of indecision, he chose to allocate two points to Power and three to Dexterity. His updated attributes panel now read:
Power: 13 points
Dexterity: 17 points
Stamina: 11 points
Charm: 1 point
Wish Value: 9/10
With 13 points in Power, Yang Ling surpassed the average adult's strength, rivaling that of a fitness coach. His impressive 17 points in Dexterity meant his speed was on par with the world's elite sprinters.
Furthermore, his enhanced flexibility and quick reflexes would significantly boost his evading ability. In a span of ten minutes, not one of five armed assailants could lay a finger on him. Of course, he wasn't yet quick enough to dodge bullets.
Since he possessed the Injuring Recovery Proficiency skill, Stamina wasn't an immediate concern, but it remained a crucial attribute. Stamina was linked to endurance, a key factor during intimate moments with a woman.
Feeling a surge of warmth course through him, Yang Ling exhaled deeply. Strengthening himself was the only way to feel truly secure.
While strolling down the street, a dog suddenly started barking at him. Yang Ling, annoyed, tossed a coin at it.
"Ding! Throwing Proficiency skill activated!"
Animals operated on instinct, never provoking a being more formidable than themselves. The coin struck the watchdog, which had been ready to leap at Yang Ling. However, the dog was visibly startled by Yang Ling's icy gaze and quickly scampered off.
"Ding! You have shattered the watchdog's desire to intimidate you. Attribute Point +1."
Upon hearing the System's alert, Yang Ling recalled an important detail. He could earn two Attribute Points and two Wish Values daily from non-human entities, a complimentary perk from the System.
Without a second thought, he activated the Eye of Detection!
Shortly after, while in a quaint park not far from the Xinhua Bookstore, he nonchalantly fed some carp. It was then that the System chimed in once more.
"Ding! Your wishing slot is full. You may now make a wish."
"Ding! The System has noted your positive actions over the last two days. As a result, the System is granting you one unrestricted wish opportunity."
Yang Ling was taken aback.
He paused, reflecting on his actions over the past couple of days.
He had broken someone's leg, slapped an arrogant individual, and even kicked a dog. Could this really be considered good behavior?
Was this truly a Wishing System or rather a Wicked System?
The reward sparked a daring thought in Yang Ling.
After a brief moment of contemplation, he inquired with a surge of excitement, "System, since I'm allowed an unrestricted wish, how about granting me ten trillion USD?"
"Ding! The System is unable to generate money. However, the System can redirect ten trillion USD from accounts around the globe into yours. Should you opt for this wish, countless individuals will face financial ruin. Additionally, you may be implicated in a crime for possessing an unexplained fortune. Please think this over carefully."
Yang Ling's jaw dropped in astonishment. The System's words resonated with him, making perfect sense.
If he proceeded with that wish, he'd undoubtedly find himself in hot water.
