Chapter 95: Chapter 90: Double Rewards
Zhou Wang didn’t even have time to unlock the “Golden Magic Ball” before the system notification sounded.
Ding!
[You don’t need to understand women, money will speak for you.]
[Detected host’s back-and-forth hesitation, successfully soothing the girl’s heart. “Player of the Field” badge activated once, first-stage achievement reward obtained.]
[Because a “Player of the Field” drives a big G, you must have a big G.]
Ding!
...
[Host received “Mercedes-AMG G63” x1.]
[Please proceed to the Star Flag Mercedes 4S store (Dianchi Road location) within 24 hours with your ID card to collect the vehicle.]
…
What the hell?
Zhou Wang was momentarily stunned but quickly brightened up.
He began to disdain himself.
Did I actually fear the system would be weak?
The reality proved, he could always trust the system!
Supercars were sometimes inconvenient, and there were many places in the country he couldn’t go with one. Zhou Wang had been pondering saving some money to buy an SUV.
Now the problem was solved directly.
A Mercedes G Wagon that never goes out of style… Sweet!
However, this also gave Zhou Wang a vague understanding of some system rules.
He found out that whether actively or passively, as long as he did something beneficial to his life, the system would always come in with support.
Whether it was a turn-based or randomly triggered event.
A true game of life.
With this system, he didn’t even know how he could lose—
But, what exactly is this “Player of the Field” badge?
Zhou Wang found the system description and checked it.
[Player of the Field: Every girl has wanted to be “played” once.]
[Activating the “Player of the Field” badge 10 times permanently unlocks this title and grants the ultimate reward.]
[Current progress 1/10]
[There are countless achievements in life waiting for you to unlock. Keep trying, and you’ll eventually be the ultimate winner!]
Zhou Wang understood.
This was just like a game’s “Achievement System,” with various hidden titles waiting for him to discover and unlock. For example, this “Player of the Field” badge, he could earn a stage reward each time he activated it.
This time it was a Mercedes G Wagon; next time, there would be other rewards. As the difficulty of activating the badge increased, so too would the rewards.
It’s like accumulating experience points to open up treasure chests…
In summary, two words: Newbie luck!
…
“Mr. Zhou, we’ve arrived.”
The reminder from Bella next to him temporarily interrupted Zhou Wang’s thoughts.
The elevator stopped on the sixth floor of the Wanda Vista Hotel, where the hotel’s swimming and fitness center was located.
With nothing much to do, Zhou Wang wanted to test the “Blindfold” effect here.
“Mr. Zhou, I won’t accompany you inside. If you need anything, simply instruct the staff inside. The bathrobe and towel prepared for you are already in the locker room.”
Bella handed Zhou Wang the VIP locker room keycard and smiled as she stopped walking.
“Thanks.”
Zhou Wang nodded and walked alone into the fitness center.
The manager and front desk ladies who had been waiting in the lobby all bowed and greeted him as they saw him, “Good afternoon, Mr. Zhou!”
Even working in a fitness center, remembering Zhou Wang’s face was an essential skill.
The costliness of the presidential suite was also in these service details, as the hotel worked hard to create a “this place is your home” atmosphere…
After the greetings, the manager quickly approached, “Mr. Zhou, do you need me to show you around the facilities?”
“No need, let’s go straight to the pool.”
Zhou Wang waved his hand. He was there just to test the item’s effect; he already thought swimming was an appropriate activity as it wouldn’t draw attention and didn’t demand much visual capability.
“Okay, right this way.”
The manager first led Zhou Wang to the locker room, waited until he finished his shower and changed into swimming trunks, and then escorted him to the pool area.
The indoor pool wasn’t large, with dimensions of 25 meters long by 10 meters wide.
But it benefited from a good environment, and at this time, there were only two girls frolicking in the shallow end, which was just fine for Zhou Wang.
Zhou Wang had already heard from Bella that some five-star hotels had pools open to the public, like Wanda in this case, but because the price was steep—200 yuan per visit—walk-in customers were scarce.
Generally, the pool mainly served hotel guests and some annual pass holders. Still, even hotel guests needed an executive suite or higher to use it for free.
“Mr. Zhou, would you like a personal training session?”
Before leaving, the manager asked another question.
“A personal trainer?”
Zhou Wang asked curiously, “Are they good-looking?”
“Uh… should be, okay?” The manager responded awkwardly with an unexpected smile.
“Never mind, no need.”
Zhou Wang had only asked out of the spur of the moment, not with any real intention.
After all, he had seen plenty of “fit girls'” short videos online; a beauty filter paired with a perfect figure always looked pretty tempting, and fitness videos tended to skirt the boundary, earning a comment section full of pervy onlookers.
Especially those wearing yoga pants, that crossed the line outright.
A certain popular actress had even been betrayed by yoga pants on a show, revealing her true form. Zhou Wang’s roommate still couldn’t bring himself to delete the video and repeatedly watched it on his phone.
“I won’t disturb you anymore; if you need anything, just contact me at any time.”
After the manager left, Zhou Wang didn’t rush into the water; instead, he sat down on a lounge chair nearby.
The unexpected gift of a Mercedes G Wagon put Zhou Wang in a great mood. Before swimming, he decided to follow his previous thought and unlock the “Golden Magic Ball” to see if there might be a bigger surprise.
Focusing his mind on the “Golden Magic Ball,” Zhou Wang silently willed it to open.
The magic ball disappeared, replaced by a shimmering golden card.
[Boss Transformation Card: Use it to transform a deeply bonded random female into a temporary boss. Defeat the boss to gain loot of varying value, with a critical chance for extra drops.]
[Note: No use of props or drugs allowed.]
“?”
Zhou Wang read the instructions twice to barely understand how to use the card.
Tsk…
Currently, Su Yajing seemed to be the only one who met the criteria of having a deep bond with him.
It looked like whether this reward would be worthwhile would only be revealed at night.
However, since it was a reward from a Golden Magic Ball, it probably wouldn’t be too bad, right?
Zhou Wang shook his head, retrieved the [Li Qing’s Blindfold] from the system vault, and then removed his bathrobe, following the ladder down into the pool.
The pool water was a bit chilly, but since it was the height of summer, the temperature was just right.
Splash!
Zhou Wang didn’t put on the “Blindfold” right away. He plunged into the pool with an incredibly graceful movement, only to predictably sink soon after…
“Cough, cough… Damn, I’m really bad at freestyle swimming. Not sure if less than three meters still counts as freestyle.”
Choking on water, Zhou Wang resurfaced and shook his head.
He was a purely breaststroke swimmer, but fortunately, he was there to burn energy, and breaststroke was just perfect for that… After all, it was definitely the most exhausting stroke, bar none.
