Good Luck Is on Our Side
Whether it's the truth or a lie, I can tell for myself.
Bai Qiuyu looked at Wuma Xiu and thought to herself.
As his best friend now, Wuma Xiu would never lie to him. Therefore, there must be only one truth.
Everything the other person said was true.
It turns out their world was actually a novel. And the other person really was the protagonist.
This is a question worth exploring.
However, judging by the usual formula, I'll probably only be a supporting character.
Bai Qiuyu lowered his eyes, analyzing the situation carefully. After a moment, he raised his head and looked at Wuma Xiu with a serious expression:
"I get it. Now's the opening act, right? It's time for your talent to amaze everyone, for you to show off and get your face slapped, isn't it?"
He also knew a little about the novels available online.
Considering the plot points and Wuma Xiu's current situation, this is clearly a standard template for the opening.
The protagonist makes his entrance, stunning the audience and causing a stir.
Then the other party started showing off and then contradicting themselves.
Thankfully, the opponent wasn't playing the underdog-to-hero comeback strategy, otherwise I would have been incredibly frustrated in the early stages.
The more Bai Qiuyu thought about it, the more sense it made. Her gaze towards Wuma Xiu changed, now carrying a more solemn "I understand" look.
This was the nth time Wuma Xiu had expressed shock to Bai Qiuyu.
Honestly, under normal circumstances, it wouldn't make him feel this way. What's wrong with this guy's brain?
How could the other party believe such a ridiculous statement?
Li Tongchen reached out and patted Bai Qiuyu's head, saying earnestly, "Sigh, Qiuyu, I know you're a naive child, but don't believe things that sound like lies."
He glanced at Wuma Xiu again.
"Especially someone with a criminal record."
He found this person to be harmless-looking, but his ability to lie through his teeth was truly remarkable. He didn't blush, didn't pant, and his eyes didn't wander. If the lies hadn't been so outrageous, he almost would have believed him.
"Yes."
Wuma Xiu burst into laughter, but there was no real joy in his lowered eyes.
"I can't believe that anyone would actually believe something like that."
This person is too gullible. If they encounter a con artist in the future, they might even be swindled out of their underwear!
"Aren't we friends? Why did you lie to me?"
Bai Qiuyu asked.
He valued the word "friend" very much. Wuma Xiu was the first friend he had ever made, and the first peer he could truly connect with over the years.
He even went so far as to search on the Star Network and summarized a few points: As friends, we should never abandon, give up on, betray, deceive, conceal, or take advantage of each other...
In short, I will never abandon you, even in death.
So at this moment, he was very confused.
Why would the other person lie to me?
Does the other person not consider me a friend?
But they clearly get along so well.
Most importantly, the other party must have a lot more to say about the God of God of Wealth, and since I am his friend, the other party must tell me everything.
"As friends," Wuma Xiu patted him on the shoulder, serious, "A little joke between us can help strengthen our friendship. Understand?"
"Really? I didn't know it could be done that way. I'll remember that."
As the three were talking, a group of people began to surge towards them.
"Incredible! Absolutely incredible!"
A Federation researcher in a white lab coat ran over.
He wore glasses, and when he looked at Wuma Xiu through the lenses, his eyes seemed to burn with barely concealed fanaticism.
"Excuse me, how did you do that? Can I give you a physical exam? I'm really curious about what's different about your body structure, I'd love to understand..."
The man in the white coat is named Lu Qianqiu. He is the one who personally delivered the Compatibility Stone to the Federation First High School and is also the main person in charge of this Divine Power Compatibility Assessment Ceremony.
He was practically obsessed when he first took over this Compatibility Stone.
Others treat it as a ritual instrument, but he treats it as his lifeblood, spending all his time in the laboratory, even reluctant to leave it to sleep.
Later, an order came down from above to transfer Compatibility Stone away. He almost risked his life to stop it, but in the end, he couldn't go against the orders of his superiors.
In order not to be separated from his precious child, he volunteered to take on the task of being in charge of the ceremony.
He was initially impatient.
This kind of fieldwork interfered with his research.
But after the strange phenomenon caused by Wuma Xiu just now appeared, Lu Qianqiu went completely mad.
The way he looked at Wuma Xiu was even more intense than when he looked at the Compatibility Stone.
Since taking over the Compatibility Stone, he has conducted countless experiments.
For an ordinary person to achieve a level of compatibility with Gods that is one in a million is already considered exceptional. In his eyes, the fact that one in ten thousand of the students in this year's class has reached this level is already an incredible limit.
But that is, until Wuma Xiu appeared.
If the Compatibility Stone is correct, then the value just now was 99.99...9%.
With such a high degree of compatibility, it wouldn't be surprising to say that the other party was a vessel specifically tailor-made for these Gods.
How could humans and Gods possibly achieve such a level of harmony?
Lu Qianqiu stood there, trembling all over.
He looked at Wuma Xiu as if he were looking at a treasure trove that had never been discovered.
Seeing Lu Qianqiu's fanatical gaze, Wuma Xiu crossed his arms in front of him and retreated repeatedly.
"Sorry, I have no interest in you or your experiment. Please stay away from me, otherwise..."
He pulled Li Tongchen, who was standing next to him, to his side, shielding her.
"Otherwise, I'll have our homeroom teacher deal with you."
Wuma Xiu is now very wary of the man who is looking at him strangely.
Lu Qianqiu ignored the advice and continued to charge forward.
Just then, another golden light suddenly enveloped Wuma Xiu.
Golden raindrops fell from the sky, each drop transforming into glittering gold coins that jingled and rolled across the ground.
Within the golden light, Wuma Xiu's figure vanished.
When he opened his eyes again, he was already standing in the sky, surrounded by familiar figures.
He looked at these gods and, with a pained expression, spoke:
"Alright, you're all here watching the show. Is it entertaining? Who started this mess for me today? Step forward, or don't blame me for being impolite."
"Ah, too bad none of them are us." The Goddess of Beauty spread her hands and sighed regretfully, "If I had known it would be this fun, I would have played with the wine."
God of Wine nodded vigorously beside him.
Yeah, yeah, he originally wanted to stir things up too, but something even more interesting happened next.
Wuma Xiu's gaze fell upon the god he found most suspicious.
--Sea God.
"Stop looking at me. How stupid do you think I would be to do something so easily that it would expose our relationship? There's a god behind this. But whoever that god is, we absolutely cannot let them live."
The Sea God began to explain.
The secret between them and their true form must never be known to other sentient beings.
Moreover, he hates things being out of his control.
"Take it easy and do it. Good Luck to us until you find him."
An unfamiliar voice rang out.
