Xiao He unexpectedly gained a criminal cheat skill that allows him to learn all kinds of crime-related abilities.
—But the catch is, he has to keep “stabbing people” to stay alive.
<...Upon hearing this good news, Xiao He quickly opened his panel and found that his points had reached the 50,000 mark for the first time!
However, nearly 40,000 points were accumulated slowly through the long-tail effect of the characters "Zhu Laosan" and "Muze", especially the character "Zhu Laosan".
Although Shen Jue was ruthless and his boning knife was cruel and bloody, he did not achieve the kind of "criminal influence" that Xiao He wanted.
Of course, this is only in comparison, since the promotion has only just begun and the points are still steadily increasing. All I can say is that Zhu Laosan is just too wicked; from the audience's perspective, he's clearly more of a beast.
After reviewing his own points, Xiao He's gaze fell on the hundred-point draw next to him.
Speaking of which, with all these pulls he's saved up, is he capable of emptying the low-level card pool?
Xiao He rested his chin on his hand in thought: "If I draw this now, that would be five hundred draws."
"How about we try two hundred draws first?"
Xiao He muttered to himself, while tapping the system: "System, I'm doing big business with you, can't you at least show me the prize pool? Let me see what's left in this beginner prize pool, I have no idea what's in the rest of your pools."
The system remained silent for a moment, seemingly considering that Xiao He was indeed its major benefactor, and then silently showed Xiao He a portion of the lottery prizes.
There were indeed many things that Xiao He was interested in, but even more things that Xiao He wanted to complain about.
Xiao He shifted his gaze from the few skills that looked pretty good, and slowly flipped through the prizes below, a slight twitch at the corner of his mouth.
"Huh? A knife that kills without drawing blood? What's the point of drawing that thing?"
"Grave excavation sensor? You mean you want me to dig up other people's ancestral graves?"
"A complete guide to cooking human flesh? Ugh—take it away, don't disgust me."
"Poison powder quality assessment? It seems pretty useful, at least it prevents being poisoned... Holy crap, the poison you're talking about? How could I dare to taste it? And taste it? Get lost, don't even think about it, I'm calling the police!"
"Human transport? What is that... Huh? After changing my body type, I can stuff things inside my body to pass through security? Ugh, I'm disgusted!"
"Huh? There's an artist here too, a vase maker... Holy crap, is this vase even a person? Get lost!"
"Ah, that's pretty normal, sniping proficiency... Ugh, that's not normal either! Where would I get a sniper rifle in this society governed by law! Am I supposed to use it to pop balloons at a street stall?"
Besides these, there are some things that even Xiao He couldn't bring himself to complain about.
For example, human flesh delicacy, basic torture techniques, robbery disguise masks... and even a bunch of indescribable skills and tools specifically designed for sex crimes!
Xiao He's worldview was reshaped.
He realized he was wrong.
He was very wrong.
Why would he think that a criminal system could have anything good about it?
His understanding of the criminal world is still too narrow!
Do you really think it's as simple as just killing? No!
Xiao He was even thankful that he had been very restrained in his lottery draws and hadn't drawn anything recklessly. What if he had drawn something weird...? These things are non-refundable! If he had drawn something like a human transporter or a poison powder appraiser... Xiao He felt he might as well find a place to start over.
The only thing that relieved Xiao He was the system's note at the bottom: [The current prize draw weight changes according to your situation; there's a high probability of getting highly sought-after items and skills, and a low probability of getting other items and skills.]
Xiao He understood.
