Chapter 751: The Mermaid (14)
Upon arriving at the most popular temple, Wen Wan was shocked. Modern people worship Buddha and Bodhisattvas with such high technology: the incense was electronic, the paper money burned was projected, and everything was controlled by a smart brain. Could the Bodhisattvas truly sense genuine faith? Would they truly bless these people? Wouldn't the Bodhisattvas starve?
With these questions in mind, Wen Wan decided to follow the tradition. Perhaps the Bodhisattva would see her sincerity and spare her from bad luck?
So he took out traditional paper money and incense from his bag and began to pray in the professional and devout posture given by the system.
Even if the system says there are no Bodhisattvas or gods in this world, faith makes them real. Wen Wan has been so unlucky, what's wrong with believing in a Bodhisattva?
As a result, her unconventional way of worshipping Buddha caused quite a stir and was then filmed and posted online.
Even more outrageous, as Wen Wan was praying, the statue of the deity in front of her actually cracked.
Yes, right in front of everyone, the Bodhisattva actually cracked open.
Wen Yan: "???"
"System, this has nothing to do with me, right? I can't be that unlucky, can I? Even the Bodhisattva is being cursed by me?"
system:【……】
It can't be explained either, but it does seem a bit outrageous.
You'd better leave quickly, or you won't be able to leave.
Wen Wan looked at the menacing people around her and instinctively wanted to leave. Just then, the abbot of the temple arrived and looked at the Bodhisattva with teary eyes.
Wen Wan: "This has nothing to do with me. It's probably because your statue is too old and has been neglected for years, which is why it cracked."
The abbot looked at Wen Wan with eyes that seemed to see right through her.
"Don't be nervous, benefactor. You are a person with great fortune. Although your momentum is temporarily low, it will soon turn around. There is no need to worry."
Wen Wan: "You could tell that? I've been having a lot of bad luck lately."
"Let nature take its course."
Wen Yan: "..."
Wen Wan left in the end, but the abbot's gaze towards her remained exceptionally complex. Wen Wan felt that the abbot could even see through her, revealing that she wasn't from this world. She shared this speculation with the system, but it rejected it outright: "Impossible. You're definitely too stressed."
Wen Wan: "I think they definitely figured it out."
What's even stranger is that she didn't have any bad luck for the next few days, but it only lasted for a week before she started having bad luck again. So Wen Wan became completely obsessed with worshipping Buddha, and she went once or twice a week. She also discovered that her worshipping Buddha was being filmed and uploaded to the internet.
Some say she's superstitious, others say she's amazing; after all, she can even make a Bodhisattva crack from worship, which is something not everyone can do.
This even led to a surge in the number of people worshipping the Bodhisattva who caused the splitting, since for others it was a miracle, and there must have been a Bodhisattva present for it to split.
Even the steps of replicating the Wen Wan ritual were copied, and suddenly countless orders for traditional paper money and incense appeared. This previously protected industry suddenly burst forth with vitality.
Wen Wan was also a little worried and asked the system, "If I do this, will Chen Yuan be able to absorb my luck?"
Yes, but your luck is rapidly replenishing, so it won't harm you in any way.
Because he absorbed the luck of her, and perhaps others, Chen Yuan also experienced a lot of things. His luck was incredibly good; he was basically on a winning streak. Recently, he even entered the capital and became a student at the First Military Academy. Because he saved the principal of the First Military Academy while passing by, the principal specially approved his admission. Even though Chen Yuan was originally a person without any academic qualifications, he has now directly become a student of the First Military Academy.
Most importantly, the First Military Academy is actually related to the male protagonist. He graduated from this school and created a legendary feat that no one else can match.
Wen Wan could even predict that Chen Yuan would break the records left by Gu Chuan step by step, then transform Gu Chuan's luck, and trample on Gu Chuan, as everyone knew.
This is not what Wen Wan wanted to see.
So after thinking it over, she decided to go to the military academy as well. One of her purposes was to meet the female lead, Lin Ying, who had also entered the academy. It has to be said, the female lead's halo is really impressive.
If the original outline had been true, Lin Ying would have fallen for Gu Chuan. The two would have been an extremely well-matched couple, possessing the most compatible spiritual connection in the world, a perfect match in terms of talent and beauty.
The author just went crazy; Lin Ying fell in love with Chen Yuan and teamed up with him to target Gu Chuan.
Wen Wan told Gu Chuan that she wanted to go to the First Military Academy, which surprised Gu Chuan. "Why do you want to go to the First Military Academy?"
Wen Wan: "Because that is everyone's dream place, and I don't want to live a mediocre life. I want my life to have value, and I am quite interested in mecha."
Gu Chuan: "I will help you with that, but you still need to pass the school's test. I won't interfere with that. Whether you can get in or not depends on your own abilities."
Wen Wan: "Okay."
Wen Wan began to cram on her knowledge of mecha.
After that, I got a spot in the exam, and then took the entrance exam with a bunch of other people. I got a decent score and entered the First Military Academy, becoming a student in the mecha department.
Lin Ying and Chen Yuan are both in the Mecha Department and in the same class.
Wen Wan also used some methods to get into this class. The first thing was to test their mental strength, which represents their potential. After all, the current mechs are all driven by mental strength. If their mental strength is not strong enough, they are destined not to become powerful mech warriors.
Chen Yuan's A-level mental strength is neither high nor low, but at the First Military Academy, almost all the students have A-level mental strength, like carp crossing a river.
The female protagonist, Lin Ying, possesses a mental strength of 2S, making her a rare genius, as there are fewer than ten people in the entire intergalactic region at the 3S level.
Those at the S level are considered geniuses even at the First Military Academy.
Wen Wan looked at Chen Yuan, who seemed to disregard her and gave the others strange looks.
"Could he be thinking of plundering these people's spiritual energy?"
System: [That's right.]
Wen Yan: "..."
Wen Wan went up for the test, and Chen Yuan stared intently at her. Actually, Chen Yuan wasn't an extremely handsome man; he was just good-looking, the kind of person who wouldn't stand out in a crowd.
Wen Wan: "System, what level am I? Even if I'm not good enough, at least give me a 3S level."
System: [Are you trying to attract Chen Yuan's attention so he won't target the other students?]
Wen Wan admitted that those who could come to the military academy were all the pride of heaven. It would be too tragic if they became ordinary people because of Chen Yuan. Besides, she had inexhaustible luck, after all, she was protected by the Bodhisattva.
