The Fate Dice That Kept Jumping Back and Forth

This Supernatural Revival is getting weirder and weirder.

Now even a cat can become an Evolver. I have no idea how they managed it.

But if a cat can become an Evolver, can it also become an Awakener?

If a cat can do it, what about dogs?

Cows?

Horses?

Guinea pigs?

Jiang Qiao suddenly thought of the paper animals made by the Paper Figure Maker.

Is there a connection?

[Day 15. You want to feed the fruit from the Bone Tree to the cat, but it looks disgusted.

In the end, the fruit went into the Ghost Infant's belly, and you found their strength greatly increased.

If divided by level, the Ghost Infant has now reached the peak of Tier 1.]

[Day 16. You put the cat into your backpack and head out with the Ghost Infant and your team of Awakeners.

You kill Malevolent Ghosts all the way.

The Ghost Infant backstabs, the Awakeners finish them off, and you move unimpeded!

You arrive at the eastern suburbs, wanting to take down the Human Head Lanterns in one go. Your hands itch, and you shake the dice again.

Result: 1.

You feel something bad is about to happen and immediately want to run with your team.

But as soon as you turn, you run into a group of Paper Figures carrying coffins.

Not only were there Paper Figures in traditional clothing, but also a large number of Paper Dogs, Paper Oxen, Paper Sheep, Paper Horses, Paper Wolves, and Paper Tigers.

You stare at each other for a moment, then a fierce conflict erupts!

During the battle, the Human Head Lanterns floating on the river also become abnormal, reviving themselves. They rise into the air one after another, joining the encirclement against you.

The Awakener team is scattered and quickly pursued by Malevolent Ghosts, suffering heavy casualties.

You yourself are besieged by four Paper Tigers, barely escaping.

Gray light flashes in your eyes, and thunder roars in your hands.

You fight valiantly.

Two tigers are shattered by your gray light.

One tiger is beaten to death by your wild punches.

But you are also seriously wounded.

You begin to flee.

You want to command the Ghost Infant to rescue you, but they have already suffered heavy losses under the attack of the Human Head Lanterns.

In a moment of crisis, you grit your teeth and shake the dice again.

With a rustling sound, the dice seem to have seen a ghost and refuse to stop, spinning continuously.

You fight and retreat, your wounds increasing.

Just as you are about to collapse, the dice finally stop, showing a 6!

At this moment, the Paper Figures in the distance seem to think you are finished and continue on their way with the coffins, leaving only one Paper Tiger and a group of Human Head Lanterns still chasing you.

During the battle, your Lightning Thunder Fist breaks through to the third tier.

You fight desperately, and your "Mad Scientist" also advances to the third tier.

At the same time, the "White Tiger" that had been sleeping in your backpack wakes up.

It still has a sleepy look on its chubby face, completely bewildered.

As soon as it sees the surrounding lanterns, it instantly explodes in anger, turning into a black shadow.

The Human Head Lanterns are eventually torn to shreds by you all.]

"Shit!"

Jiang Qiao's expression changed repeatedly, and he couldn't speak for a long time.

Rolling a 1 with the Fate Dice is too dangerous.

It's practically a guaranteed death!

If he had rolled a small number on his second try, even a 5, he probably would have been finished.

"This Fate Dice talent must be used with extreme caution,"

Jiang Qiao frowned deeply.

Rolling high numbers is indeed rewarding, even turning misfortune into good fortune.

But once low numbers appear, even if you want to re-roll, it will take quite some time for the result to come out again.

If you can't hold on, it'll be troublesome.

Moreover, luck is something that acts upon people, not events.

So even if you hide on Mars, rolling bad luck will still put you in danger. There's no operation where you can hide and roll the dice, go out if it's good, and stay put if it's bad.

[Day 17. You returned to the Shelter Camp, preparing to recuperate. You have five Ghost Infants and one black cat remaining. All the Awakened brought out this time have perished.]

[...]

[Day 27. After many days of recuperation, your injuries have basically healed, and your Invincible Body has advanced to the fourth tier.]

[Day 28. With your efforts, the number of Awakened in the Shelter Camp is growing. Special weapons are being mass-produced.

You discovered that the true way for humans to fight Malevolent Ghosts is not for Awakened to confront them head-on. This is because the number of Awakened is always far fewer than Malevolent Ghosts.

Fighting a war of attrition is a huge disadvantage!

At least in the early stages, the method of confronting Malevolent Ghosts should be to combine the abilities of Awakened with modern weapons to create special weapons.]

[Day 29. The Shelter Camp encountered a ghost tide. Countless Malevolent Ghosts swarmed in, attempting to annihilate the human stronghold.

You noticed that some Malevolent Ghosts were acting in an organized manner, suspecting someone was manipulating them from the shadows.

At this time, although the number of Awakened in the Shelter Camp was only a hundred, with your help, they possessed a massive stockpile of special weapons.

Curse Tanks, Talisman Cannons, Ghostfire Gatlings...

With ample firepower, you ultimately achieved victory and successfully repelled the ghost tide.

You commanded the remaining Ghost Infants to consume large amounts of fragmented Malevolent Ghosts. They transformed and grew to the peak of the second tier.]

[Day 30. The Shelter Camp encountered another ghost tide.

This ghost tide was not large in number, but its quality was significantly higher, with some Malevolent Ghosts even coordinating their attacks.

Facing this situation, you made a decisive move, striking out proactively while they were still gathering!

You were like Thor descending, or Lu Bu reborn. With a wave of your hand, swathes of Malevolent Ghosts fell at your feet.

The black cat "White Tiger" was also exceptionally excited at this time, charging wildly, taking down one Malevolent Ghost with each swipe.

Its movements were incredibly fast, and the Malevolent Ghosts couldn't do anything to it.

The Shelter Camp also seized the opportunity to counterattack, ultimately repelling the ghost tide once more.]

[...]

[Day 34. After several days of vigilance, you found that the ghost tide had not reappeared.

Everyone was praising you.

They held you in the highest regard.

Your name reached the distant imperial capital and subsequently spread throughout the world.

Your heroic deeds and scientific achievements began to be sung throughout the world, and you became the dawn of the future, a hero of humanity.]

Jiang Qiao watched, stunned.

Good heavens.

I've become a hero of humanity?

And my name is being sung throughout the world?

Should I be shouting to the children: "Do you believe in light?"

Jiang Qiao couldn't help but laugh and cry.

He had never intended to save the world.

Perhaps it was because humanity was generally pessimistic, and the authorities needed an inspiring idol to boost morale.

He just happened to be in the right place at the right time.

After careful consideration, Jiang Qiao felt this wasn't necessarily a bad thing.

At least for now, although the entire world had suffered supernatural attacks and heavy losses, order had not completely collapsed.

Human and material resources could still be effectively organized, and official communication had not been interrupted.

Although the situation seemed passive at the moment, with the increasing number of Awakened humans, it might not be impossible to regain control of the world in the future.

He held the technology for special weapons, possessed the means to accelerate the birth of Awakened, and his personal strength was also immense.

Once he also had immense personal prestige.

In the new order of the future, he could rally everyone with a single shout!

Heh heh.

A bold idea flashed through his mind.
