Consumer God

Chapter 1 The Consumer System Reports to You
With heavy steps, Han Lie boarded the last subway.

The carriage was empty.

The face of every night returnee is full of exhaustion and numbness.

Han Lie randomly found an empty seat and sat down, closed his eyes, and rested for a few seconds.

When he opened his eyes again, there was a sudden swish before his eyes, and an illusory panel appeared.

At the same time, a mechanical voice sounded in my mind.

【The consumption system reports to you】

system!

Han Lie is too familiar with this.

He started reading online articles in his freshman year of high school and has continued to this day.

For this reason, my grades, which were not bad at first, dropped sharply. In the end, I was only admitted to one of the three colleges, and I was doing nothing until I was 30 years old.

Han Lie, who has been beaten by the society for more than ten years, will fall into deep regret every time he thinks of his rebellion in high school and indulgence in college.

If at first...

It's a pity that there is no if, and we can't go back to the beginning.

However, regrets are regrets, but Han Lie still lacks the motivation to change.

Because he knew very well that it was useless.

Originally, he was just a middle-aged person, but he wasted the most precious teenage years and missed the opportunity of the college entrance examination. No matter how hard he struggles now, what can he do?

Can afford a house or marry a wife?

Instead of humbly pursuing career and love, it is better to lie down comfortably.

Read novels, play games, feel free.

Lying down until his early 30s, Han Lie never achieved anything.

To this day, he was hit in the face by the system for no reason.

God, dad finally can't stand it anymore?

Is my time coming? !

Just as the intense excitement surged, Han Lie heard another prompt——

[Newbie gift pack opens]

[Consume all the previously accumulated consumption value to satisfy the host's wish]

【Please make a wish】

"I want to go back and do it all over again!"

Without even thinking about it, Han Lie blurted out his greatest wish.

No, that is not a wish.

It was a dream woven with remorse and unwillingness.

I am a loser, but if I can do it all over again, I want to be a winner.

……

Han Lieyou woke up and found himself still sitting on the train.

But it is no longer a spacious and bright subway, but an old-fashioned train.

This is……

After graduating from the college entrance examination, on the way to report at the School of Humanities at SISU? !
Han Lie looked at the girl opposite, and instantly anchored the current time node.

2013, June 8.

The first long trip in my life.

Han Lie still has a fresh memory of everything that happened today.

Because the big beauty Chen Yanfei who happened to be in the same school as him and who was in a different class was sitting opposite him.

It just so happened that she was admitted to the Shanghai Foreign Language School next door to Han Lie.

The young and naive Han Lie thought it was a fate bestowed by God, and after struggling for a long time, he finally couldn't help but strike up a conversation with her halfway through the journey.

In the end, she was beaten badly by her classmate Pan Shaohang.

That defeat directly destroyed Han Lie's beautiful fantasy of college life, causing him to lose his mental balance for many years.

Han Lie calmly took out the thousand-yuan counterfeit phone, opened it, checked the time, and then checked the ticket.

Fortunately, it was not long before the departure, and the plots in memory have not yet happened.

Feeling relieved, Han Lie lowered his head and checked the system with peace of mind.

The system panel is very simple.

On the current page, there are several lines of text descriptions.

[The host's total consumption value is at most only enough to go back to the eve of the college entrance examination]

[Considering the possible adverse consequences, the wishing function automatically selects the current time node for the host]

【Current balance consumption value is 12588 points】

[Do you want to continue backtracking? 】

【whether】

Looking at the two options that kept flashing on the panel, Han Lie was in a cold sweat, and decisively clicked [No].

Back to the eve of the college entrance examination... so scary!
Why are you going back?
A new record of 200 points in the test, and a mixed doubles by the way? !

Pooh!
If he could go back to the beginning of the third year of high school, Han Lie would really like to fight for it.

If nothing else, I just want to prove that I am not a waste of iron.

Even if you only get into one second school in the end, it will be a brand new beginning.

It's a pity that I didn't get the chance...

Forget it, the humanities at SISU are pretty good.

At least there are enough beauties.

……

After giving up, the new reminder will be refreshed immediately.

[The wish function has been permanently closed]

【The consumption system is officially launched】

what?
Can't make another wish?
Well, no problem.

Han Lie was not very disappointed. At this moment, the old boy was in a state of extreme satisfaction. The joy of his dream come true filled his whole body, so strong that it overflowed, enough to sweep away all negative emotions.

The current Han Lie feels very pleasing to the eye when he sees Pan Shaohang sitting diagonally across from him.

Well, the young man has delicate features, red lips and white teeth, so he must be a duck!
Eye contact, Han Lie even nodded friendly to each other, revealing a smile from the heart.

My child, Daddy loves you.

However, Pan Shaohang didn't intend to accept that kindness, with a very disdainful expression on his face, he let out a slight snort from his nostrils.

Probably because he thinks that Han Lie is unkempt and poorly dressed, so he is not worthy of being with him?
Han Lie felt that the brat was hopeless, but he just laughed it off.

He lowered his head, opened the magazine to cover up, and continued to check the system.

Just after Han Lie lowered his head, Chen Yanfei, who saw the whole process in her eyes, quietly looked at the boy in front of her.

……

Han Lie didn't know anything.

The words "officially launched" filled him with anticipation and attracted all his attention.

The entire consumer system has only three sub-pages.

[Attribute], [Item], [Message]

The item page is naturally empty, and there is only one sentence on the message page [more functions will be unlocked after upgrading]. Han Lie can only explore the property interface.

On the upper left is a rotating 3D personal image.

He is 174 centimeters tall, weighs 60 kilograms, and has a thin body. His hair that reaches his eyebrows is very messy. He wears a pair of old-fashioned black-rimmed glasses and has dull skin.

The appearance of a passer-by is still rustic and cowardly.

It's not ugly, but it's true that people can't get close.

Han Lie, an 18-year-old boy from a small town, is like this.

At the top right of the panel, there are various data.

Respectively--

[Basic attributes: strength 62, agility 59, constitution 63, intelligence 65]

[Secondary attributes: face value 66, figure 58, health 69, special 75]

[Professional knowledge: Mathematics Level 2, English Level 3, Accounting Level 1, Finance Level 3...]

【技能：驾驶1级、车技3级、厨艺2级、手艺4级、炒股2级、写作2级……】

【Cash: 20385】

[Experience: 12588]

Concentrate on any entry, and expanded items will appear, as well as related explanations.

Han Lie checked one by one, and quickly figured out the general idea.

The first is the core of the system: experience is obtained through consumption, and experience can be used on any attribute and skill.

One consumption, two gains.

And the extra gain is the "self-upgrade" that money can't buy, which is really cool.

Consumption value and experience are converted one-to-one.

The rules of the system are simple and rude, which fit Han Lie's wishes extremely well.

——If you can get happiness simply and simply, who wants to fight with those brain-burning rules?
So Han Lie would rather squat in Li Jiaqi's live broadcast room and wait for orders, rather than join in the excitement of Double Eleven.

So many twists and turns, who are you fooling?

The new generation is no longer accustomed to anyone's arrogance.

There is a price to pay for arrogance, old horse...

Smiling, Han Lie began to check the meanings of the values ​​of various attributes.

Below 60 points, sub-healthy scum, [-] experience plus a little.

60-69 points, the normal range, [-] experience plus a little.

70-79 points, excellent, unlocked after system upgrade.

80-89 points, genius, unlocked after the system is upgraded again.

90-99 points, top, dazzling like the sun.

Han Lie is not surprised that his basic attributes are mainly concentrated in the early 60s.

The posture of a middle-aged man!
If geniuses are you and mortals are us, then the vast majority of people in the world are us.

Before today, Han Lie had always been very clear about his position.

An extremely ordinary member of the crowd.

But now, quietly looking at the system panel, Han Lie suddenly realized...

I will eventually leave us, surpass you, and become the third kind of person——

them.

……

The basic attributes are normal, but the secondary attributes are very strange...

What is special?
Quietly open it and take a look... Brother Lie's smile is gradually changing.

Hey, my lord, I am gifted in some aspects!

However, there is only talent, but no excellent level of strength and physique to support it, so that the talent has not been brought into play. It is really a sad story.

After being sad for a while, Han Lie suddenly turned dark.

Hemp egg!

What are you thinking?

As far as your looks, figure, and EQ are concerned, you have been single from beginning to end, and your talent has never been used at all, okay? !
Han Lie suddenly understood why there was an inexplicable level 4 skill among the skills.

Gan, this dog world is really unfriendly to me...

He was complaining, but in fact Han Lie knew very well in his heart that it was never the world's problem, but his failure to find the right way to get along with the world.

It is always difficult for people to admit their failures, and they are more willing to blame objective conditions and the external environment.

Before today, Han Lie was a typical stubborn party.

I always like to make excuses for myself to escape reality and avoid problems.

He wrapped a shell on his heart, and forcibly rebounded all external stimuli.

Don't listen to nagging, don't accept criticism, don't want to tell the truth from lies, don't want to show your true self...

In short, against everything.

Han Lie's mediocrity and failure are largely due to his unhealthy mentality.

Internal friction with yourself all day long, so what strength do you use to fight?
However, after rebirth, that layer of shell suddenly disappeared.

Han Lie felt unprecedented ease, recalling many things in the past, clearly distinguishing right from wrong, and no longer hurt his fragile self-esteem.

No, no, I'm not vulnerable now...

Han Lie wandered in the ocean of memories, slowly sorting out the past and old people of these years.

The mood is peaceful and fulfilling, full of relief from the past and longing for the future.

The sense of happiness hugged him tightly, making him think too much.

As the saying goes, a man's maturity is an instant thing.

Now is the moment when Han Lie reconciles with himself and shakes hands with the world.
