Chapter 51-  Fighting, Boy

Shi Lei was already accustomed to the Scepter’s characteristic of commenting. But he was not too annoyed with it because he knew that it indicated that the Scepter will definitely give him an answer for his question.

But it was a shame that this time’s answer was not too ideal.

The Scepter said: “Direct relatives are fine. As for normal relatives, it is the same rule as your friends as not everyone who has relative relationship will be acknowledged.”

Although the answer seemed a bit ambiguous, but Shi Lei nodded and said: “In other words, my parents, my grandparents on both Mum and Dad’s side, and my future children, will all be acknowledged by the black card. As for other relatives, it depends on how close we are.”

“Correct. If you maintain your current level of IQ, I think our communications will be a lot more pleasant.”

Shi Lei was not touched at all and asked: “So if I spend the money on my relatives, such as buying them presents, it has to be the same myself using the money, that item must be used in order to count towards the quota.”

The Scepter was slightly surprised as it purposely did not say that, but Shi Lei said it first.

“Correct.”

Shi Lei then asked: “And this can be used by that person. If he gives it to someone else, it won’t work even if that item’s still being actively used, right?”

“Correct. Alright, you asked enough questions today. If it wasn’t for you finishing the newbie training stage outstandingly, I won’t answer this many questions for you.”

Shi Lei didn’t have any other questions anyways as he said: “Then, what’s my quota for this week? Since I’m officially level one, there should be a set weekly quota?”

Talking about this, the Scepter seemed to be more serious. He did not comment or talk about anything else and said straightforwardly: “Now that you are level one, the weekly quota is 100,000 yuan. The quota will refresh every Sunday at midnight just like before, and whether it’s reward or penalty, they will also be given out at this time until you reach level two.”

“What’s the condition to level up? Or when will I level up?” Shi Lei did not ask how much the quota will be when he reaches level two as he knew that even if it was something that could be revealed, but with the Scepter’s personality, it would definitely not tell him as it was definitely part of the rule which allowed it to conceal.

And comparing to how much he would receive at the next level, Shi Lei was more concerned of how the black card judges him to level up. If the time to level up was not set, then he obviously needed to have a think about it and level up as slowly as possible. The man who drove the Porsche was a clear example of the outcome when  levelling up too quickly.

“This isn’t something you should care about. You are not worthy enough to know about this with your current level. You idiot, enjoy your weekly 100,000 yuan quota. If you are lucky, you can do a lot with it. The only piece of advice I can give you is to improve yourself as quickly and in every single way possible. The stronger your abilities are, the easier it is for you to manipulate the future high quota. I think you may have some misunderstandings towards me, but you should believe that I actually don’t want to kill you that quickly. You are more outstanding than all of the people who came before you and I hope that you can become someone who’s different to them. Fighting, boy!”

The Scepter’s sudden display of kindness and its seemingly normal tone of voice sent shivers up Shi Lei’s spine.

Ever since he came in contact with the black card and the Scepter, the Scepter made itself look like a madman. Whether it being cynical or snarling at him, Shi Lei was already accustomed to it. But now, it seemed to be a sincere elder, and even said something as cheesy as ‘fighting, boy’. It made Shi Lei shiver and he felt his hair were all standing up.

Shi Lei felt strange. What did it mean by become a different type of person compared to them? Since the black card chose him, that means all the people who came before him have all been killed. Being different to them meant that Shi Lei will live to the end and become impossible to be killed by the black card.

Suddenly, Shi Lei realised something important. It didn’t matter how slow the black card levelled up, the quota it gives will reach an enormous figure. Although Shi Lei knew that its weekly quota will increase at the rate of 12, but Shi Lei could conclude a small pattern from the Scepter’s words.

The initial sum was 10,000 yuan for the training period and the final reward for it was also the base number of 10,000 yuan. Although from level one, the weekly quota will be a set number, but its sum had already reached 100,000 yuan. Then, the next step, which is when Shi Lei becomes level two, this, quota may increase by ten times.

1,000,000!

Then level three, 10,000,000 yuan!

It was already a daunting number. With Shi Lei’s consumption abilities right now, it was impossible for him to spend 10,000,000 yuan in one week.

Even if he just survived that, what about level four? A billion?

Shi Lei realised that his brain hurts as soon he thought about the number of zeros behind the number. Although Shi lei felt like his guess might not be accurate, but if it was really like this, how would he face the quota of a billion each week?

No doubt he would be killed. Even it was the first richest man in the world. Under the circ.u.mstance that he’s not allowed to invest, what could he do if you asked him to spend a billion yuan in a week? But how long does it take to reach level four? Shi Lei did not believe that the process would take a few decades. Then, what does he need to do to avoid falling into the same fate as the people who came before him? This is bulls.h.i.t!

But since the Scepter said the words ‘different from him’, that meant that Shi Lei had the chance of not being killed by the black card, or anyone who had been chosen by it had this chance.

Then, where is the problem?

At least, Shi Lei did not think that he could survive for more than ten years with the constant levelling up and the increasing quota. No, even five years would be difficult. He had just finished the training stage this month and it might even only take about this long for the level one official employee stage. In this way, it would be impossible for Shi Lei to consume the money given by the black card within a year or two.

As he thought of this, Shi Lei asked seriously word for word: “What condition do I have to reach to be different to those seniors before me?”

“Boy, your level is too low and it’s unworthy for me to answer. But, you are indeed much cleverer than your seniors. Most of them never even thought of this until the day they were killed, and you thought of it when you are merely level one. This is making me looking forward to your performance in the future. Do you want to know how to avoid being killed? Then work hard and spend to level up. When your level is high enough, you’ll have the power to the answer to this question.”

Holy s.h.i.t! Level is not high enough again. Working hard to level up? Bulls.h.i.t! When my level is high enough to know the answer, I’m afraid that it’s probably too late for me to change my fate of being killed?
