Lin Chen was diagnosed with advanced lung cancer and had only three months left to live. His wife and children were separated, and he was heavily in debt. He lay in bed waiting for death.
In despair, a cold mechanical voice sounded in his mind: [The life pawn system has been bound. The host can pawn the remaining lifespan and exchange it for anything - money, supernatural powers, healing, revenge...]
"I want to live!"
He pawned half a month of his lifespan in exchange for special medicine, which instantly suppressed cancer cells and stood up from the hospital bed.
From then on, Lin Chen stepped into a crazy game with life as a bargaining chip.
Trade a week's lifespan in exchange for a photographic memory, and counterattack to get admitted to a top medical school;
He exchanged a month's lifespan for proficiency in fighting and defeated his ex-father-in-law who took away his property;
Exchange your three-month lifespan for the ability to predict, accurately avoid the stock market crash, and earn your first pot of gold.
But every time he pawned, there was a trace of white hair on his temples and a fine line on the corners of his eyes.
"What you exchange for your life must be paid back eventually." The system reminded.
Lin Chen sneered: "I not only want to survive, but I also want to take back everything that belongs to me and make those who trampled on my life pay the price!"
When he stood at the top of the city, someone asked him: "You have sacrificed so much with your life, is it worth it?"
Lin Chen looked at himself in the mirror with sharp eyes despite the vicissitudes of life, and said with a smile: "At least, I have lived and not died in a hospital bed."
