The Azure Continent, Star Empire, Nine Stars City.
As the imperial capital of the Star Empire, Nine Stars City sprawled over an imnse expanse of land and was renowned for its proximity to the Nine Stars Mountain Range. These mountains were ho to countless ferocious beasts and rare dicinal herbs, drawing practitioners eager for adventure and treasures. Rumor had it that ancient, mysterious ruins lay hidden deep within the range, tempting the bravest souls.
Within the city, high walls over ten feet tall encircled a bustling network of streets and shops. The lively atmosphere of rchants and pedestrians was a sight to behold, unmatched even within the vast Star Empire.
Yet, amidst this prosperity, a small shop in a remote alley on the city's eastern side stood in stark contrast. Deserted and forgotten, its location dood it to obscurity despite the city's vibrant energy.
Inside the quiet shop, a young man leaned on the counter, his gaze wandering to the lively streets outside, though his eyes betrayed a sense of detachnt. This was Luo Chuan, the shop's owner, who had once been an ordinary university student on Earth.
Late one night, his life had taken a sudden and unexpected turn. He had died—how, he could no longer rember—and awoke in this strange new world. A month had passed since then, and the only thing he had gained was this unpopular little shop.
As he sat lost in thought, a cold, chanical voice suddenly echoed in his mind:
"The strongest store owner system is successfully bound! The store security system has been installed. Would you like to claim your first item now?"
Luo Chuan froze in shock, his heart skipping a beat. In an instant, the shop's environnt transford before his eyes. The cluttered space disappeared, replaced with sleek glass counters and walls made of gleaming silver-white tal. The shop now radiated a futuristic, sci-fi aesthetic.
For a mont, Luo Chuan was stunned. Then, tears welled up in his eyes. After an entire month of struggle, his long-awaited "golden finger" had finally appeared—the cheat-like boon that ca with crossing into another world!
Still, he couldn't help but wonder. "The strongest store owner system?" He had questions, but with excitent coursing through him, he nodded eagerly. "Activate it!"
At his command, Luo Chuan felt a montary dizziness as the surroundings shifted once again. He found himself in an endless, dark void. In front of him stood a massive lottery wheel, its size so imnse he couldn't see the edges.
"Please spin the wheel, host," the system's voice instructed. "You may control it with your mind."
Luo Chuan focused on the wheel. With a ntal command to "spin," the enormous roulette began to turn. It spun faster and faster, the items on it becoming a blur. After a few breaths, he willed it to stop.
The wheel gradually slowed, the tension mounting as Luo Chuan watched the pointer inch closer to its final position. Finally, it stopped on a golden section.
"Congratulations to the host for winning Coke. The Coke purchase channel has been unlocked."
For a mont, Luo Chuan stared blankly. Coke? Was the system joking?
Before he could protest, a flash of light transported him back to the shop. This ti, however, sothing was different. Inside a sleek glass container, rows of neatly arranged Coke bottles now stood, their presence both puzzling and surreal.
Luo Chuan couldn't help but sigh. Was this really the start of his legendary journey as the strongest store owner?
