Chapter 17: Attribute Stones
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Someone knocked on the door.
A man in a suit came in and said, “Boss, Gao Xiong, together with more than a dozen shareholders, launched a crazy attack on Lin Technologies. They say that we will vanish if your son and Gao Damei are not married in three days.”
The man lowered his head. He did not mention that Gao Xiong had declared that the Lin family would also disappear from Earth if they refused the marriage.
Lin Yang breathed softly and said, “Reply to Gao Xiong that my son and Gao Damei will marry. You can ask them to prepare first.”
“My poor son!” Lin Tingbai’s mother wailed. Her wonderful son was going to marry a fatty! That was truly unfair!
Lin Yang glimpsed at Lin Tingbai and said, “Son, most things in life do not go as you plan. Consider it a sacrifice for the Lin family.”
Lin Tingbai shed a tear of grief on the sickbed after hearing his father’s words.
His happiness had been used as a bargaining chip by his ambitious father.
Adieu, my beloved goddess, Xia Weiwei!
Lin Tingbai closed his eyes in pain, feeling that his life was dark.
...
In the laboratory of the No. 11 High School, Wang Hao dripped a substance into a red tube, his hand moving fast. The red substance immediately glittered gold.
Is this a strengthening drug? Not challenging at all. Wang Hao shrugged and drank the strengthening drug. He then sat on the floor and activated the Glorious Demon Art.
BOOM!
When night fell, Wang Hao trembled, and a terrifying air current spurted out of his body and blew everything nearby away.
Wang Hao opened his eyes. Gold light flashed dazzlingly from within.
I’m a Level 7 Apprentice now. Wang Hao clenched his fists, feeling power all throughout his body. His foundation was still solid.
If anyone else advanced three levels in a row, their foundation would’ve been unsteady, making it impossible for them to carry out their full potential.
However, thanks to the Level 1 Potential Pill, breakthroughs were as simple as drinking water as long as he was used to the new power of his body.
Wang Hao believed that the adaptation would take a day at most.
“System, I want to further strengthen myself. What do you recommend?” Wang Hao asked.
〈〈The host now has 41,400 Villain Points. Considering the host’s needs, this System suggests attribute stones, namely Strength Stones, Speed Stones, Spirit Stones, and Stamina Stones.〉〉
Attribute stones? Stunned, Wang Hao read the introduction to the four kinds of attribute stones.
Level 1 Strength Stone: For Apprentices to increase their base strength. Max usage: Ten. Price: 1,000 points.
Level 1 Speed Stone: For Apprentices to increase their speed. Max usage: Ten. Price: 1,000 points.
Level 1 Spirit Stone: For Apprentices to increase their mental power. Max usage: Ten. Price: 1,000 points.
Level 1 Stamina Stone: For Apprentices to increase their stamina. Max usage: Ten. Price: 1,000 points.
Why do they feel like stats points in a game? Wang Hao wondered if he had been gamified by this System.
Forget it! I’ll take it as long as it can strengthen me! Wang Hao exchanged ten attribute stones of each kind, which cost him 40,000 points.
After Wang Hao picked up the gold Strength Stone and used it, he felt warmth flowing all throughout his body, and his strength significantly improved.
“Good stuff!” Excited, Wang Hao hurried to use the other 39 stones.
I feel that my capabilities have been more than doubled.
Wang Hao hopped around for a moment and found it much easier to control his body than before. His head was also much clearer.
Who is it?
Suddenly, silver light flashed before Wang Hao’s eyes.
An assassin!
Wang Hao recognized the stranger’s identity instantly. He couldn’t have done it without the ten Level 1 Spirit Stones.
The assassin squinted. He couldn’t believe that a high school student had dodged the attack of a professional assassin.
Without hesitation, the assassin disappeared. He had to retreat now, or he wouldn’t be able to when the teachers of the school were alarmed.
“You want to get away with this?” Wang Hao sniffed and chased after him with Lightning Gait.
The assassin was stunned at Wang Hao’s speed. He was told that Wang Hao knew a Perfect gait, but he did not know that Wang Hao was so fast!
Su Mu and Zhong Li observed the battle between Wang Hao and the assassin in silence, but their hearts were not as tranquil as they appeared.
When did Wang Hao develop such speed?
Also, didn’t he just become a Level 6 Apprentice this morning? How did he make another advancement just tonight?
Besides, Wang Hao showed no signs of an unsteady foundation.
This guy must have a secret! Su Mu smiled.
There were too many geniuses in the long history of the Universal Federation. They had left a lot of legacies.
It seemed that Wang Hao had found an unbelievable legacy that helped him to advance quickly!
“Senior Su, should we ask the source of Wang Hao’s legacy?” asked Zhong Li respectfully.
“That’s unnecessary.” Su Mu shook his head. “No matter where he got the legacy, it’s his business. I won’t ask if he doesn’t tell.”
Zhong Li said in admiration, “Senior Su, you are truly a man of integrity.”
Su Mu smiled. In his eyes, Wang Hao would inherit everything, so he did not really care what Wang Hao’s legacy was.
So, he had no reason to investigate it. It would only be a waste of time.
“Then, should we help Wang Hao, Senior Su?” Zhong Li asked.
The assassin was a Level 9 Apprentice, two levels higher than Wang Hao. It wouldn’t end well for Wang Hao if he were to continue.
“No need to. It’s a chance for us to see his real combat ability.” Narrowing his eyes, Su Mu stared at Wang Hao, hoping to find out if he could defeat his opponent in a life-and-death battle.
In the meantime, he imagined how great it would be if he raised Wang Hao, who was abandoned by the Royal Academy, into another legend after he’d raised Wang Tianyi into one.
