Lei Long never imagined his life would change in an instant, let alone that it would happen in the most mundane of places—a dimly lit, overcrowded internet cafe. The sounds of clicking keyboards and excited chatter filled the air, blending into a cacophony that was both familiar and comforting.
Lei had always been an average guy, living an average life. He was a university student, scraping by with mediocre grades, working part-time at a convenience store, and spending his free time gaming. Tonight was no different—until it was.
As Lei stared at his computer screen, deep in concentration on a particularly intense game, a sudden notification popped up, overlaying his game.
**Congratulations! You have been chosen to bind with the Supreme System. Do you accept?**
Lei blinked, unsure if this was some kind of elaborate prank or a new game feature. He hesitated, but curiosity got the better of him. He clicked "Accept."
A surge of electricity coursed through his body, making him gasp. The sensation was overwhelming, as if every cell in his body was vibrating with energy. He could hear his heartbeat pounding in his ears. Then, just as quickly as it started, it was over. The cafe seemed quieter, the lights dimmer, and Lei felt... different.
**System Initialization Complete. Welcome, Lei Long.**
A disembodied voice echoed in his mind. Lei's heart raced. He looked around, but no one else seemed to notice anything unusual. He took a deep breath and whispered, "What the hell?"
**You are now bound to the Supreme System. Your mission: shock the world, gain points, and rise to greatness.**
Lei's mind was spinning. This couldn't be real. He had read stories about systems and powers, but those were just fantasies. "Is this some kind of joke?" he muttered.
**No joke, Lei Long. This is your reality now.**
He felt a mixture of fear and excitement. "Why me? Where did you come from?"
**The origins of the Supreme System are beyond your current understanding. You were chosen because you have the potential to use the system effectively**
"Higher dimensions? Potential? What does that even mean?" Lei asked, bewildered.
**In time, you will understand more. For now, focus on using the system to achieve your desires.**
Lei took a deep breath, trying to calm his racing thoughts. This was crazy, but he couldn't deny the thrill it brought. "Alright, how do I gain points?"
**System Points are awarded based on the shock value of your actions. The more you shock people—whether it's through anger, surprise, or awe—the more points you earn.**
Lei's mind raced with possibilities. He could hardly believe what he was hearing. "What can I do with these points?"
**Everything. Wealth, power, fame—everything can be bought with System Points.**
A rush of excitement surged through Lei. This was his chance to escape mediocrity, to become someone extraordinary. He took a moment to process everything, then a mischievous grin spread across his face. "Alright, System, let's see what you can do."
He glanced around the cafe, his eyes settling on a group of students from his university. They were well-dressed, loud, and obviously affluent—the kind of people who never gave Lei a second glance. Perfect targets for his first shock.
Lei walked over to their table, feeling a newfound confidence. The leader of the group, a tall guy named Jason, looked up with a sneer. "What do you want, loser?"
Lei smiled, feeling the System humming with energy inside him. "Just thought I'd spice things up a bit."
Without warning, Lei grabbed Jason's expensive laptop and, with a quick motion, dumped a full cup of coffee onto it. The reaction was instantaneous. Jason's face turned beet red with fury, and the entire cafe fell silent, all eyes on them.
**Ding! +50 System Points.**
The voice in Lei's head was triumphant. Lei felt a thrill run through him. This was only the beginning.
Jason lunged at Lei, but Lei sidestepped easily, feeling surprisingly agile. "Calm down, Jason. It's just a laptop," Lei said with a smirk, knowing full well how precious the device was to him.
**Ding! +20 System Points.**
The crowd was buzzing now, some shocked, some laughing, others pulling out their phones to record the scene. Lei's heart pounded with exhilaration. This was what the System wanted—shock, chaos, and entertainment.
Jason, humiliated and enraged, stormed out of the cafe, followed by his friends. Lei stood there, basking in the mix of reactions from the crowd. He had just taken his first step towards a thrilling new life, and it felt incredible.
**Ding! +10 System Points.**
**Total Points: 80**
As the cafe slowly returned to normal, Lei sat back at his computer, a sense of power and purpose surging through him. He didn't know where this path would lead, but he was ready to find out.
"Alright, System," he whispered, "let's shock the world."
