Chapter 29 Visit
[There is 1 unused skill point left. Do you want to continue developing the skill tree? ]
Ji Minghuan leaned against the headboard, tilted his head, and looked at the newly unlocked skills on the branch "Hidden".
[Branch 1 (Hidden): Binding Band Sense (Learned) → Binding Band Mantra (Learned) → Binding Band Color Change (To be learned, requires "1" skill point to unlock) → Unknown → Unknown]
Lift your finger and tap the newly unlocked skill, and the details panel will pop up.
[Restraint belt color change: Make your restraint belt invisible. After wrapping yourself with the restraint belt, you will enter invisible form. (If you encounter a being with higher attributes than you, you will be noticed by the other party when you get close to a certain distance)]
Ji Minghuan looked at the skill description and thought, "It's pretty good, suitable for tracking people... But did I add too many skills to this branch? It's a bit biased."
Of the skill tree that was now before his eyes, only the "Hidden" branch had grown particularly long, while the "Crazy" and "Violent" branches were drooping sickly, as if they would wither at any time.
"But for now, this is the only way to go... I can't use my combat skills anymore: I can't beat the strong ones, and I can beat the weak ones at will."
Ji Minghuan scratched his hair and thought expressionlessly, "Let's learn it. There is no better option for now."
Lift your finger and press and hold the skill icon. The icon changes from bright to dark, and emits a red and black glow with the real name attached.
[1 skill point has been consumed, and the skill of the branch "Hidden" has been successfully learned - "Restraint Belt Color Change". ]
[The next skill of the branch "Hidden" has been opened for learning. 】
Ji Minghuan took a look at the newly unlocked skills of the "Hidden" system and muttered, "The good skills of this branch are really one after another, and I can't stop at all."
[Band Trap: Lay a trap made of bands on the spot. Once the enemy steps into the trap area, their legs will be immediately bound and entangled by the bands. (The band trap released by this skill will inherit the effects of the "Band Sense" and "Band Detection" skills)]
"This description looks very sinister. I'm so tempted... but unfortunately I've used up all my skill points."
Seeing that there was no room for further operation, he called up the "Character Development System" panel.
[This character's exclusive training system is the "Social Superstar System". ]
[The core rule of the "Social Superstar System" is: Whenever you reach a cooperative relationship with more extraordinary humans, you can get rewards through the "Exclusive Cultivation System."]
[Current progress: Training Task 1: Establish a friendly cooperative relationship with 1 psychic (regardless of the pro or con side) (Reward: 1 attribute point)]
[Completed training task 1, obtained reward: 1 attribute point. ]
[Training Task 2 has appeared: Achieve cooperation with a total of 3 superhumans (current progress: 1/3, the superhuman that has reached a cooperation relationship is: the alien "Blue Arc"). ]
Ji Minghuan raised his eyebrows, his eyes bright in the darkness: "By the way, does cooperating with harmless-level psychics count as cooperation? In this way, I can find hundreds of partners a day, so wouldn't that mean I can max out my attributes?"
He thought: "Let's experiment. It won't take much time. I can use it as a sleep aid before going to bed and find some harmless supernatural beings nearby. Although it's dangerous to go out now, after all, my father and brother are at home."
Ji Minghuan opened his personal panel and added the attribute points rewarded from the training task to "Strength".
[The "Strength" attribute of the No. 1 game character "Black Pupa" has changed from C+ level to C++ level]
He fished out the phone under his pillow and logged into the Outlander official website. He then used the restraints to take out a draft book and a ballpoint pen from the bedside table, tore a page from the top, and wrote a line of words with the ballpoint pen:
——"Please don't disturb me while I'm sleeping, otherwise I will run away from home with my sister."
It has to be said that the restraints are very flexible in doing this kind of delicate work, and the handwriting is even neater than Ji Minghuan's.
He used the restraints to pull out a bottle of glue from the drawer, tightened the restraints and held the glue in his hand, fell off the bed, turned the door handle, walked out of the room, stood in the corridor, and glued the page with the words on it to the door with glue.
Then go back into the room, close the door and lock it.
"Okay, this way I have some free time."
Based on his understanding of Gu Qinye, no matter what Gu Qinye wanted to talk to him about later, after seeing the line of words posted on the door, he would definitely not disturb Ji Minghuan's sleep.
Because Gu Qinye still felt guilty about quarreling with his father in front of his younger brother and sister. His younger sister had already run away from home, so he naturally didn't want to see his younger brother also get angry and slam the door and leave.
Not to mention the Gu Zhuo case. He has no status in this family and is almost like a prisoner on observation. He should be sleeping peacefully in his room at this time.
Ji Minghuan used the restraints to press against the wooden floor of the room, and his senses seeped down like rain.
While peeking at Gu Qinye who was reading in the living room downstairs, he took out a mask and windbreaker from the storage box at the bottom, put them on slowly, pressed the fixed button on the side of the mask ear, and turned on the built-in voice changer.
Staring at the phone screen, he murmured silently: "Let me see... which are the more famous harmless-level psychics nearby, and pick a lucky one at random."
Basically, the files of every "harmless-level psychic" will be registered on the official website of the Psychic Association, making it convenient for large companies to verify. Only harmless-level psychics are qualified to enter the company and work with ordinary people. In some occasions, their special abilities will even shine in the workplace.
At this time, Ji Minghuan was browsing the files of these "harmless-level psychics".
After a moment, his eyes were fixed on one of the archival photos.
"It's you... the bookstore owner, a harmless psychic codenamed 'Photo Retriever'."
To be honest, Ji Minghuan was not sure whether his brother on the first floor and his father on the third floor would notice the moment he slipped out of the room through the floor-to-ceiling window.
To be on the safe side, Ji Minghuan wrapped his entire body with restraints like a black mummy, including the mask and windbreaker, leaving only the slits for his eyes exposed.
The next moment, as the effect of the skill he had just learned - [Color Change of Restraint Belt] was activated, the color of the black restraint belt gradually changed, showing an invisible camouflage transparency. Ji Minghuan, who was wrapped in it, naturally could not be seen.
“It’s really useful.”
Ji Minghuan curled the corners of his mouth and looked at his transparent body with satisfaction. He maintained his invisible state and took a few tentative steps, blending perfectly with the air, then gently opened the floor-to-ceiling window.
Diverting gravity to the floating restraints, he leaped through the window and into the moonlight.
Five minutes later, in Lijing City, Broly Bookstore.
The orange light spread out flatly, and the store was empty. Basically no one would visit the bookstore at this time. It would be better to say that most bookstores would be closed. Because this is a bookstore that also serves as a cafe, it is open so late.
The young boss stopped outside the store and turned the sign on the door from "Open" to "Close".
Then I went back to the store, listened to jazz music, and made final preparations before closing: tidying up the bookshelves, wiping the tables and radios with towels, and putting the hardcover books that customers had left in the coffee area back into the gaps in the bookshelves.
The coffee machine beeped, he picked up the cup and poured it into a cup of hot coffee, then placed the freshly brewed coffee on the counter, and a burst of hot steam carrying fragrance rose up.
He raised the corners of his mouth slightly, took a breath of happy air, and was just about to enjoy the last moment of quiet before getting off work, when suddenly, a foreign object appeared in the corner of his vision.
The boss was stunned for two seconds, put down the coffee cup, and slowly looked up.
He saw a huge, pitch-black insect pupa hanging upside down from the ceiling, only inches away from his head. The strange thing was… it was clearly right above his head, but the boss didn't see it at all, as if this black insect pupa could become invisible.
I will start to be recommended tomorrow, please vote for me, thank you.
