Chapter 72: Three Choose One Strange Mentor Added
The Master and Apprentice list UI is a mysterious black and gold color scheme, with three silhouettes lined up on a flat surface. It's difficult to guess who these people are based on the silhouettes alone; the only glimpse you can make is that the center and rightmost characters appear to be wearing hats.
At the very bottom of the interface, there's a line of small, golden text: [Before you are the most popular teachers in this plane, selected from the past, present, and future masters in various fields! Please carefully choose one of these masters to escort you and face the ups and downs with you.]
Chaomu poked around curiously and found that when the cursor moved over it, the black silhouette suddenly enlarged and the page turned into the instructor's profile.
[Mentor No. 1: The Sleeping Detective - Maori Kogoro! ]
[Faction: Red]
The black silhouette on the Master and Disciple page transformed into a mustachioed man in a gray suit, sleeping with his head bowed. A closer look revealed drool dripping from the corner of his mouth. The cluttered office desk, piled with beer cans and racing tickets, reminded Chaomu of Shen'er—except this man's appearance was clearly very different from Shen'er.
Introduction: An outstanding police academy graduate, a highly popular detective (future version), a master teacher among masters! In the future, his disciples will span both the political and criminal underworlds, including the finest detectives, legendary undercover agents, versatile workers, elite public security officers, and even the second-in-command of a mysterious organization! Join him now to become a master detective's first disciple, and make the future bosses respectfully call you "Big Sister"!
Teaching Style: Very relaxed, relying primarily on students' initiative. Students often demonstrate thorough understanding and are adept at reading their surroundings.
Special skills available for learning: Super Accurate Marksmanship (SSR), Everything Will Get Better After a Good Night's Sleep (Super Rare SSR), Police Academy Physical Training (SR), Third-Rate Reasoning (R)
[Possible hidden traits: Anesthetic resistance++ Okino Yoko love+++++]
Asami stared at Kogoro Mouri's panel and fell into a brief moment of contemplation.
Even though she has SSR skills and many outstanding disciples, she still feels like this NPC seems unreliable... The hidden trait of anesthetic resistance is indeed a good thing. What is the attribute of Okino Yoko Love? It seems like an idol name.
And what's the "future tense"? Does it mean this instructor isn't famous right now, but investing now won't hurt? There are also quite a few criticisms of their teaching style, relying heavily on student initiative and learning to read people's expressions... Isn't this really about students being smarter and taking the blame for the instructor's actions?
Chaomu personally wasn't particularly interested in being a detective or reasoning expert—she primarily wanted to find a mentor who could teach her physical skills or magic, something that could significantly boost her combat power. She decisively clicked "Exit" and looked at the hat-wearing character in the middle.
This time, the click effects were particularly explosive. Countless strange onomatopeia for "Ola-Ola" appeared on the panel. As countless fists rained down, the page switched to a blue-purple UI effect, complete with dolphins and starfish in the background.
[Mentor No. 2: The invincible oceanographer—Jotaro Kujo! ]
[Faction: Red]
On the screen, the silhouette suddenly transformed into a tall young man in a long white trench coat. Beneath the brim of his hat, sharp green eyes shone like unsheathed blades, the lower half of his face hidden behind the coat's stand-up collar. A muscular, purple figure loomed faintly behind him, and Ola Ola's punches threatened to pierce the screen.
He was handsome, of course, but Chaomu's first reaction wasn't that he looked cool, but rather that he looked familiar. She seemed to have seen this character somewhere before, perhaps in a game from the same company? But the image she remembered didn't look the same as this one...
She scratched her head, tried to think for a while but couldn't remember anything, and finally gave up trying to recall.
In this work, this "Mr. Kujo" is clearly referring to her neighbor, Kujo-kun, who lives in the large apartment in the middle, whom she's never met and who doesn't even let her rummage through his trash. Her strongest impression of him is that he seems to be constantly staying up late at home writing papers. When she peeked in, it seemed like he was a graduate student. What was he trying to teach her? A paper?
With curiosity, the player continued to scroll down to read the introduction.
Profile: Marine biology graduate student and invincible Stand user, the king of business trips. He manages to juggle research and research with beating up DIO's remnants, making him, in some ways, as involuntarily involved as the king of part-time jobs. Possessing exceptional physical prowess comparable to that of the Sky and Tyrant, he possesses a vast knowledge base and extensive experience. He doesn't over-exploit students, and aside from the less-than-optimal career prospects for his major, he has few drawbacks.
Teaching style: serious and practical.
[It has been detected that the player has not unlocked the Stand talent, has not completed the relevant pre-story, and lacks the necessary conditions. Stand Star Platinum related skills cannot be transferred through the master-disciple relationship for the time being.]
[Special skills available for learning: Postgraduate Entrance Exam Skills (SR), Oceanography Knowledge (SR), Time Management (SR) (effective only when Stand-related skills are unlocked)]
Chaomu: “…………?”
When she saw the introduction about super strong physical skills, the corners of her lips began to rise wildly, but after reading the rest, the corners of her mouth fell completely: So due to lack of preconditions, she now worships this Kujo-kun as her teacher, and can only learn from him how to write a paper?
If special skills can't be passed down through mentoring, how else can they be passed down? Doesn't that trash can drop rate system have its own clues? It can't possibly be passed down through X-relationships, right?
Even if we take a step back, it would be difficult to find a job with the few professional skills he has left... Even if you see it in the game, it seems that there is no way to find a job, and it doesn't look suitable for a poor person like her who needs a job.
She closed Jotaro Kujo's page in disgust, swiping right to look at the last black shadow in the interface.
Unexpectedly, this time the last black shadow did not turn into a specific human form like the previous two characters, but remained hidden in the darkness. One could only vaguely see that it was a male figure wearing a top hat, only half of his body, and even his height could not be seen clearly.
[Tutor No. 3: The world's number one killer, the strongest tutor—Reborn! ]
[Faction: Gray]
Here we come!
Chaomu's originally somewhat depressed spirits perked up again.
Although she had never actually met Mr. Reborn, she had heard of him before from Shier. Shier had said that she claimed to be Reborn's disciple, so she must have chosen him as her apprentice.
She looked intently at the figure cloaked in darkness, sensing a strange aura of strength. A flattened creature seemed to be crouching on the wide-brimmed hat. As she watched, it suddenly stretched and deformed, transforming into a gun in the man's hand, its pitch-black muzzle suddenly pointed at the screen.
A bullet cracked the interface, and the introduction gradually emerged from the cracks.
Introduction: Master teacher, an absolute master teacher. The self-proclaimed world's greatest assassin, the Rainbow Son, is an all-around teacher, mastering eight hundred skills, including assassination, physical training, mathematics, home economics, relationship guidance, and the development of mafia leaders. He is renowned for his contributions in numerous fields. He is a master at transforming decay into something extraordinary, and he teaches students individually. No matter how incompetent he may have been, his students have become independent and powerful mafia godfathers.
Teaching style: Lively yet slightly rigorous, focusing on the organic integration of theory and practice. All students who have received instruction have praised it highly.
Below the introduction, there is a seal with a 100% student approval rating, which looks particularly rigorous and authoritative.
Compared to the two "master teachers" mentioned above, who were either unreliable due to either their own initiative or the system's influence, Reborn's resume undoubtedly looked impeccable. Not only his profile, but also his list of special skills to learn was quite long, so many that Chaomu thought that if he had just drawn from the trash can, he would probably have scored a card pool of one, two, three, four, five, or six.
Shooting, cross-dressing, assassin secrets, absolute magic fist... even mathematics, the world's number one killer's SSR skills are listed in rows. Chaomu even saw something like "the ability to talk to insects" among them.
As for skills like the application of Death Flame, although it is shown that they have not been unlocked yet, his other skills are already outrageous enough.
In terms of taijutsu, besides being the ultimate killer, Reborn was also a master in Muay Thai. Asami's heart raced as he watched, feeling like a bright future was just around the corner where he could take down Hibari or Kurosawa Jin with a single punch.
Most importantly, he has already brought out two successful disciples - with him as a teacher, wouldn't she be able to walk all over the Italian underworld and contract all the trash cans?
No, you can't make such a haphazard choice. As an experienced player, you must learn to weigh the pros and cons and avoid the hidden traps in the game.
She took a deep breath, calmed herself, and temporarily exited the page. She poked Shen'er in front of her: "By the way, Shen'er, do you know anything about that number one killer Reborn you mentioned earlier? Who would win in a fight between you and him?"
Shen Er, holding the cotton swab, said: "......?"
The man glanced at her in confusion: "Why are you asking this suddenly? Isn't he your teacher? You should know him better than I do."
Chaomuxin said that the fate had not been decided yet, and God knew whether her future self would brag to Shen'er about things like "You know the number one killer, he and I are brothers" to fool him.
"Just curious." She said vaguely, looking at him with particularly innocent eyes, "After all, you are so powerful."
She always "understood people's hearts" when she needed help. He narrowed his eyes and stared at her for a moment, then reached out and pinched her cheek. "If it were Reborn in his prime, I would lose—are you satisfied with this answer?"
……Wow.
When people mentioned Hibari before, they said it was a 50-50 chance, but when answering this question, Shiro actually said directly "he will lose" - judging from his reaction, Reborn's strength should be self-evident.
Chaomu was quite satisfied with the answer, so he let go of the hand that was pinching his cheek and switched back to the master-disciple interface.
"Then again, are these the only three options?" She shook the system again, trying to get some hidden perks by frantically prodding customer service. "Can't you guys get better instructors? Could you bring up a better instructor? There's not even a Black instructor to choose from among these three options. Isn't your game quite free?"
The system that was shaken responded immediately as usual.
[Originally, the system also provided a Black Mentor, but due to the player's early selection, this NPC has a very low favorability towards you, making choosing him as your mentor a complete failure and making him unsuitable as an initial option.]
[Also, considering that you haven't unlocked your spell talent yet, the super handsome genius teacher *** is not recommended for now. More powerful mentors will be unlocked as players explore.]
Oh, so the choice was from five, but because her exploration level was not high enough, it became one of three.
...But who is this Black Side mentor that Butterfly dropped? She was just playing the game, so did she offend anyone?
Chaomu looked at the prompt, puzzled, scratched his head, and finally gave up thinking.
Looking at the mentor-disciple column in the system, it seemed that she could eventually become a mentor to more than one. With that in mind, she didn't need to worry about it any further and could simply choose the optimal solution at the current stage.
She looked at the three silhouettes in the master-disciple list, and finally carefully stretched out her finger and clicked.
-----------------------
The author has something to say: When chatting with friends and family, I was told that the Vongola family must be a loose camp family, red red, black black, gray gray, which is very suitable for the baby's physique of the raccoon jumping around repeatedly (?)
If you think about it carefully, isn't it normal for a family whose main position is in the gray camp to have all kinds of people? The main feature is to be very inclusive.
