Chapter 3: The Divine Book, O Divine Book!

... ...

Illusion, could it be that everything is an illusion? Damn it, how could I possibly gain the ability to control fire from reading a novel online? This is absolutely unscientific...

Apart from that, there is nothing else

There is nothing new, and the word count is so low

Science is advancing, and perhaps in another ten years it will be possible to find a cure. Never mind, it is still ... ...

This time, even though his eyes were sore from watching, he still could not discern any abnormalities

This is really not a joke

Boom

How did I inexplicably become a being like Superman? Isn't this something that only appears in various fantasy novels?

Having once been a wealthy second-generation heir of a large conglomerate, Wang Jiyang sought to numb himself in a world of opulence and indulgence, filled with various forms of entertainment. Now, he wishes to numb himself by sitting in front of the computer, opening Qihang Chinese Network, and reading novels after becoming somewhat more sober-minded.

Wang Jiyang has been diagnosed for over two months and still cannot accept it. He has visited a total of seven or eight hospitals, including the Jiangxia Provincial Center for Disease Control, undergoing repeated tests, yet he remains positive. This has taken a toll on him, turning this handsome young man in the prime of his life into a disheveled beggar.

Once again, the fiery red color, resembling the character for fire composed of burning flames, truly leaped out from the computer screen, jumping into Wang Jiyang and merging into his forehead, this bizarre transformation also caused the young master Wang to scream and jump up.

He did not dare to be too excited, nor did he dare to hold too much hope. He drove his sports car to the provincial people's hospital, and the blood test results were still negative

With a strange feeling, he opened the only chapter related to the work, only to find that it contained nothing but a single period

While driving his sports car, Wang Jiyang nearly had an accident due to excitement. Upon returning to his villa, he nervously opened his computer, fixating intently on the work titled "I Am Not Joking at All," staring hard at the circular pattern composed of capitalized numbers.

In the midst of madness and confusion, the warm current that had been flowing within gradually faded away, and the sensation of being able to control and create flames also slowly dissipated, leaving Wang Jiyang feeling foolish once again

However, he discovered that some of the charred wooden furniture, bookshelves, and books in the study still remained, some in a half-destroyed state and still emitting smoke, leaving him in a daze

In the sunlight of Jiangxia City, within a row of townhouses in the southern part of the city, Wang Jiyang took a long time to finish his morning routine after getting out of bed in a daze. This was not due to his age or sluggish movements, but rather because of his oppressive mood

The divine book, oh the divine book!

It was incorrect; at first glance, there was a period. At the second glance, he saw a pile of peculiar combinations of uppercase numbers. Wang Jiyang also did not know that if one had an ordinary talent, one would only see a period here, and upon further inspection, would not be able to discern any patterns, unable to perceive the combinations formed by the stacked uppercase numbers.

A few minutes later, in the spacious living room, Wang Jiyang, who was still trying various paranoid attempts, waved his hand to conjure a fireball, opened his mouth to unleash a pillar of fire, and with a thought, transformed himself into a being of fire; amidst all these attempts, he truly went mad

These numbers are arranged in the center of the page to form a palm-sized circle according to different plans

Dai Dai was stunned in the study for quite a while. Wang Jiyang suddenly slapped his forehead, let out a strange cry, and ran to the bedroom. He took out the HIV test strips, blood collection needles, and blood testing supplies he had purchased earlier. After waiting for about ten to twenty minutes, Wang Jiyang was overwhelmed with emotion, crying tears of joy—negative!

After being diagnosed, he discovered that the fictional world of novels could serve as an escape from reality. During the time he spent reading, he also generously rewarded the books he enjoyed, having supported more than ten titles. A single leader only costs one thousand yuan? That is hardly enough to cover a meal for Young Master Wang.

At a glance, I almost exclaimed, and as I reached out to close the webpage, Wang Jiyang suddenly shouted, staring at the circular combination of numbers on the screen, "Huh, it's clearly just a bunch of uppercase numbers, why do I see a character for fire?"

Until dinner time, Wang Jiyang had not eaten anything. After thinking it over, he suddenly had an idea and decided to recharge his account. He is a wealthy second-generation individual, usually indulging in sports cars and beautiful women, and lives in a three-story townhouse that his family bought for him as a graduation gift.

I am not dreaming

After this recharge, a one-time reward of ten million was given, equivalent to one hundred thousand RMB. Wang Jiyang also included his thoughts in the reward message.

What is going on here

The dissipation process lasted for thirty seconds, after which he returned to his previous ordinary state

No matter how many experiments are conducted, the power of fire cannot be controlled. Wang Jiyang took out a lighter again and tried to burn his finger, discovering that he could only withstand slightly higher temperatures than before. The flame burned for a few seconds, yet it still caused him to grimace in pain.

I earnestly request the author's contact information, or the reader group, anything will do. From today onwards, I will be your loyal fan, this is a divine book, a divine book indeed!

Wang Jiyang was stunned and bewildered

In the next moment, a surge of warmth and inexplicable insights flooded Wang Jiyang's heart. In his terror, he suddenly had an intuition that his body was undergoing strange changes within the warm currents enveloping him. He felt warm all over, as if soaking in the sunlight of spring, with a heat radiating from his scalp. When he instinctively opened his mouth, a burst of flames erupted from his lips, spreading and floating in the void as it burned.

In a few minutes, the fire ability will be gone

After finishing a novel he had been following for several hours in front of the computer, Wang Jiyang stretched and went to the gym to exercise for a while. It was only after having lunch that he began to browse through a sea of books in search of a new one

After searching for half an hour, he stumbled upon a book titled "I'm Not Joking". He thought that a book with such a humorous title should be quite interesting, and anything interesting was worth his time. However, after reading the first chapter, he realized it was just a clichéd urban rebirth story, completely lacking any captivating elements.

The circular combination resembles a color-blindness test chart, with the distinction that it consists solely of black. Dense black text is arranged in a circular pattern, making it impossible under normal circumstances to discern any other content from these peculiar numbers. Yet, he unexpectedly saw the character for fire.

... ...

Having read a book, not only did I gain supernatural abilities, but I also cured my terminal illness

Oh my goodness, my HIV has been cured, cured! Although HIV is terrifying, this virus is not resistant to high temperatures. When it exists in the human body, it cannot withstand high temperatures; high temperatures would kill a person. However, I became a fire person for a few minutes, with temperatures far exceeding 100 degrees Celsius, and normal cells were unharmed. All the viruses in my body were killed!

In an instant, the somewhat blurred character for fire became clear, right in the center of the circle, while the strokes of the other capital letters gradually faded, becoming a mere background color. As Wang Jiyang continued to watch, he noticed that the black character for fire suddenly transformed into red, exhibiting a kind of explosive enlargement, as if it were about to leap out of the computer screen.

HIV, AIDS, terminal illness

As the page was about to be finished, a sense of unease arose. Just as he reached the last line, Wang Jiyang discovered that the author had written a PS at the end of the chapter, informing all readers that there would be a surprise if they clicked on the related works.

Anyone who suddenly finds out that they are infected with HIV will find it difficult to recover in a short period of time

Perhaps it is better to find a way to anesthetize oneself

Having mastered the fire ability, I read a novel titled "I'm Not Joking" and gained superpowers

In the realm of online literature, the boundless fantasy worlds serve as the best refuge for Wang Jiyang, who dares not recklessly endanger himself in reality.
