Ten thousand I am across the heavens

In the underground supermarket of Jiuyou Shopping Mall, Mo Chengzi quietly slipped into the furniture section. Following the system's prompts, he calculated the exact time the staff would close the roller shutter. Just before the shutter closed, he secretly hid under the bed.

After the staff left, he quietly crawled out from under the bed and threw himself onto the soft, high-end massage bed.

He turned on the power button, and the bed automatically began to deform, adapting to his body shape, whether he was lying down, on his side, or in any other position. The bed would automatically adjust to his posture, providing just the right amount of support. It felt as easy as floating on water.

This is a high-end product reserved for the wealthy. It's said to have the miraculous function of detecting internal mechanical prosthetics and repairing metal fatigue during sleep. However, no one has verified whether this can actually do it. It's like those magnetic therapy devices advertised as health supplements on TV; the ads claim it works, so people believe it, and where there's belief, there's a market. Whether it actually works or not is irrelevant.

This was the first time she had slept so comfortably since transmigrating to this world. In terms of physical comfort alone, the wealthy in this world were not much inferior to those in the Republic of Mountains and Rivers. However, in terms of the richness of their spiritual world, they were far behind. But he had long since gotten used to it. When he transmigrated to the Central Plains, he had already experienced the ordeal of being without internet access. The initial disconnection was truly unbearable. Without the internet, such a rich platform of information, it felt like being sent to teach in a mountainous area—even worse.

Having lived in that world for so many years, he had become somewhat accustomed to that way of life. Reconnecting with the internet in this world, even though the information available wasn't as abundant as before, still gave him a sense of redemption, as if he had finally reconnected.

Lying in bed, ready to catch up on his schoolwork, he discovered that the system within him was acting up again.

"New functional modules are being generated based on the user's situation. The new functional module group is named 'Hanging-up Saint Body'."

Eat cheap food, sleep cheap sleep, buy cheap goods, and dream of a cheap life.

Mo Chengzi knew from the system's naming style that what followed was bound to be some unreliable nonsense. And sure enough, the system quickly rolled out its latest feature module: the "Hack-a-Day Sign-in System."

He was familiar with check-in systems. They'd appeared in countless cultural works; as long as you kept checking in and maintained a continuous streak, you could receive all sorts of rewards. The really skilled ones, after checking in for years, could even become invincible.

But he soon realized he was wrong. This so-called sign-in system was completely different from what he had imagined.

After the new system functions were bound, over 99 messages popped up in the upper left corner of his field of vision. Opening these messages revealed a series of website addresses.

"Register an account using the website link in the message. Bind your mobile phone number, enter the verification code, and then start checking in. It has been detected that the host has three mobile phone numbers. Please bind all three mobile phone numbers for checking in."

Mo Chengzi: "?"

He was stunned when he saw those hundreds of web pages. Some were shopping websites, some were video websites, and others were food delivery websites, courier websites, and so on.

In short, all sorts of websites offer this feature. They all share a common characteristic: a daily check-in system. By checking in daily and accumulating daily check-ins, rewards are given after a certain period. These rewards aren't necessarily cash prizes; they could include free goods or high-value discount coupons.

If you only use one or two of these websites, the amount of "freebies" you can get through check-ins is actually quite small, even with cash rebate programs. You might only earn three to five yuan a month from check-ins. After all, even if a company invests heavily in developing these projects, they can't possibly invest that much money all at once.

However, if you check in on hundreds of websites simultaneously, the total amount of rewards you could ultimately obtain would likely be quite substantial.

He couldn't calculate it himself in a short time, but the system had already done it for him. Over the next month, the accumulated check-ins from various platforms, plus the received physical goods and coupons, would have a market value of approximately 5,000 yuan. This calculation is based entirely on secondhand market prices; even if the rebates are for physical goods, the price of the goods themselves isn't considered, but rather their resale value in the secondhand market. The same applies to coupons.

Even so, a monthly income of 5000 yuan is quite a lot, at least for someone as poor as him, it is a considerable sum of money.

Many of these coupons can be used to directly purchase nerve stimulant and muscle-strengthening drugs, which are essential for him to keep up with his high school courses. If the value of these coupons is taken into account, rather than simply being converted into secondhand coupon prices, his monthly earnings could potentially reach 8000. The only hassle is the daily check-in process, which is incredibly tedious. It takes him almost an hour each day to complete these check-in tasks.

Fortunately, the system had already come up with a solution. After saving these web pages, a script could be written to perform the operations. This would reduce nearly an hour's work to just a few minutes.

He worked on the script until midnight. He thought he could finally rest, but then the system popped up again, unlocking new features for him.

"Based on user experience and feedback, a new 'cheat-and-win' lottery system has been added for users."

Mo Chengzi's face darkened. He already knew something about the AFK (away from keyboard) systems. Like the lottery systems in legitimate systems. This thing he had definitely wouldn't give him that.

In those literary works, characters often have cheat codes or cheat codes. They randomly get a lottery system, and it's like instant success. They just need to complete some easy tasks to participate in the lottery. And the prizes they win are undoubtedly top-tier items; a few more draws are enough for them to become the protagonist of the world and reach the pinnacle of life. But knowing the nature of his own system, he'd probably have to fight for his own lottery success.

As he expected, his lottery system was also an incomplete version. After the AFK lottery system was generated, a large number of red dots popped up in the upper left corner of his vision. It quickly reached 99+, and he opened the link and entered the URL. He was quickly redirected to a lottery interface. The lottery prizes were all sorts of strange and unusual; some were company-sponsored lotteries for anniversaries, holidays, or special occasions, offering their products as prizes.

Some are cash red envelopes, which are very rare, but they do exist. There are also rebate lotteries by live streamers, who give out lottery red envelopes in order to maintain the popularity of the live stream.

Or it could be a giveaway organized by social media creators after they've reached a certain number of followers. These are various raffles, some with huge prizes, others with measly odds. The system filters out raffles with relatively low odds of winning, or those with extremely high calculated chances of success.

In short, prizes with low odds of winning are usually accompanied by extremely generous rewards. Conversely, prize pools with very low amounts generally have higher odds of winning and fewer participants. While online prize draws that don't require any investment—just a few clicks or similar actions—are rare in this world dominated by conglomerates, the sheer size of the internet ensures that some can still be found.

So, he reluctantly clicked on the lottery draw hundreds of times and forwarded numerous lottery posts. A small portion of these draws were live, but most required participants to go to a designated time to participate.

The time required for related lucky draws is significantly less than that for daily check-ins. Previously, check-ins required registration and constantly switching between social media platforms. Lucky draws, on the other hand, are generally concentrated on a few major platforms, requiring only switching between different lucky draw accounts. However, waiting for the draw results is still a hassle, as most lucky draws only have their results announced on a specific date.

Needless to say, the system wouldn't automate all of this for him. He had to rely on himself, staying up all night again to write scripts. He used the scripts to extract keywords and employed AI models for analysis to build an automated prize redemption system. The system would run daily, ensuring that on the draw date, the relevant winning information would be sent to his phone immediately.

He was exhausted by the time he finished his nightly run, and he still hadn't won a single prize. This was because most of the prizes he was trying to win wouldn't be drawn until the designated date.

However, he had a feeling that after such a frenzy of draws, he would at least win something. Even if it wasn't very valuable, it would still be a considerable extra income.

All things considered, including the expected earnings from his previous sign-ins, he could probably accumulate ten to twenty thousand yuan in extra income each month. This would undoubtedly be a huge help to his current situation. Even if he didn't graduate high school, if the system could continue to function, he estimated that he could still pay off his loans, and his future wouldn't be too difficult.

He wasn't worried about attracting attention with his giveaways and check-ins. In fact, many people did the same, just not as efficiently. He knew that many classmates from poor families downloaded various platforms to check in, try their luck at getting freebies, and frantically share giveaways in hopes of winning prizes.

However, they couldn't efficiently find websites online with sufficiently high sign-in efficiency and a high enough winning rate for lotteries.

Most users can only operate on platforms they are familiar with, and the resulting profits are barely worthwhile. Relatively speaking, the system is quite capable; it probably selected the most cost-effective options after integrating data from across the internet.

On the surface, what he did wasn't much different from what his other poor classmates did. He just seemed to get higher returns. At most, people would think he had a better investment strategy, better luck, and put in more effort than others. No one would suspect that he relied on some unknown force to aggregate data from the entire internet and find these most cost-effective lottery and sign-in schemes.

After all, if someone truly possessed that ability, why would they need to engage in such petty activities? Being able to aggregate data from the entire internet, even just the surface-level data, would be enough to accomplish something truly extraordinary. It would be enough to analyze stock market fluctuations, wars between nations, and conflicts between companies. With that kind of ability, why would they care about such trivial gains as "wool-pulling" (profiting from promotional offers)?

If they can actually get this much stuff, the company will accept it. After all, this little bit of stuff really is just a small amount of money.

Mo Chengzi was exhausted after a long night. His stimulant medication wasn't enough to make him sleep-free. So he finally fell into a deep sleep on the soft bed.

This time, the system finally didn't assign him any new tasks or bind any new features.

When he woke up the next morning, the supermarket wasn't open yet. The staff hadn't opened the roller shutters either. But that didn't stop him, because the system had already scouted the location for him. The employee entrance door wouldn't lock, and even if it were, he knew where the spare key was hidden; he could just grab it and get out. The furniture store wasn't exactly a secret location. The furniture was so large that even a thief couldn't carry it away, and even competitors wouldn't bother to vandalize it; the risk and reward were completely disproportionate.

This allowed him to easily slip through the cracks. Following the system's guidance, he took the subway to a food street. The food vendors, having worked through the night, were now selling breakfast. Using the arrows in his field of vision, he quickly found a stall offering free samples, ate his fill, and hurried off to the next stall. He managed to squeeze a little something out of every stall, and before he knew it, he had a full meal.

He was increasingly amazed by the power of the system within him. Although he was currently living like a homeless person with cheat codes, it was clearly because the system was only operating in the most conservative way. Its truly powerful functions had not yet been used.

The ability to precisely identify the most opportune moments for freebies in both the real and virtual worlds means the system possesses almost complete control over data from both online and offline environments. He had just observed several food stalls and discovered that some lacked even basic surveillance cameras, and their free tasting events were simply advertised with banners. Collecting data online to identify these stalls, obtain detailed information, and determine their value would be incredibly difficult, yet the system accomplished it with such ease. This likely indicates a strong ability to control information in the real world beyond the internet, but the system clearly has no intention of implementing such a powerful feature on him.
