Novel Full Chapter 427 - Bronze Ability Enhancement Voucher
Chapter 427: Bronze Ability Enhancement Voucher
Su Yang clicked on the picture and realized, ‘this light bulb seems different from the previous one.
‘Last time, the light bulb was a circular energy-saving lamp tube which gave it [The Devil’s Angel Halo] when I added a point for it, that ability helped me a lot during the early-stages of my business development.
‘This time, it’s a tungsten filament light bulb which was used in the old days and isn’t commonly seen anymore.
‘What kind of ability could this bring?’
As Su Yang was curious, he casually glanced at the last slot of the random voucher.
‘Hmm, it’s still flashing with nothing in it.’
Just as that was what he was thinking, he was stunned. ‘Huh? What is that shining light? Is that a voucher?’
Su Yang rubbed his eyes and looked at the fourth panel in the system store. Sure enough, the fourth panel was shining brightly with a ticket in it.
Su Yang took a closer look. There were 4 large words written on the voucher, [Bronze Ability Enhancement Voucher].
‘[Bronze Ability Enhancement Voucher]?’
Su Yang recalled the introduction of the prize voucher that he had seen previously. It seemed to be specially used for the little monsters. After he used it on them, he could let the little monster obtain a specific bronze ability.
However, the success rate of obtaining the ability was not 100%. Instead, it depended on the compatibility of the specific bronze ability with the little monster.
For example, Bubbles’ talent was in film directing, in other words, the film industry.
If Su Yang specified that she would obtain the [Acting Ability], then her chances of success would be very high.
However, if Su Yang were to give her the [Forging Ability], the success rate for that would be very slim.
‘This voucher seems pretty good, it should be very useful.’
He looked at the upper right corner of the ticket and saw that the countdown read [165:47:36].
‘165 hours?
‘That’s more than 6 days.
‘In that case, I don’t suppose the countdown for this thing would be a week, right?
‘This is my first time encountering a [Random Voucher] with such a long countdown time.
‘The vouchers I have previously encountered all had minutes or even seconds of countdown. All those purchases were like bidding in an auction where every second mattered!’
This was the first time he had seen a voucher with such a long countdown, so… he bought the [Bronze Ability Enhancement Voucher] without hesitation. ‘F*ck the countdown! I’m buying it! I’m buying it now!’
As Su Yang clicked on the [Purchase], a notification popped up in front of him. [Are you sure you want to purchase the Bronze Ability Enhancement Voucher? The price of this voucher is 3,500 coins.]
‘3,500 coins.
‘That’s acceptable.’
He clicked on [Yes]
Suddenly, there was a glimmer of light and a thin voucher appeared in his hand. The balance of his coins decreased by 3,500, hence the 6,000 over coins that he had worked hard for over half a month was used up by half.
‘Oh well… I suppose you will never have too much money to spend!’
He looked at the voucher in his hand. ‘The material of this [Bronze Ability Enhancement Voucher] is similar to the previous voucher, it has a metallic feel to it as though I’m holding a thin piece of gold foil in my hand. It looks really beautiful with this bronze colour on it.’
Su Yang took a closer look at the voucher. ‘The front of the voucher is carved with flying patterns and the words [Bronze Ability Enhancement Voucher] are written elegantly.’
Su Yang flipped to the back and saw a line of words:
[Remark, Only for monsters.]
‘As expected, I’m not destined to use this voucher for myself.’
Actually, Su Yang already had an idea about how he was going to use the voucher.
‘Currently, only Janet and Bubbles have bronze abilities. One has [Close Combat Ability], while the other had [Film Directing Ability] and [Photography Ability].
‘Their abilities are all very powerful.
‘If Janet doesn’t have the [Close Combat Ability], he would be a brute with great strength and speed, but he would immediately be toyed with if an expert confronted him. However, since he has the [Close Combat Ability], he has learned many techniques and combat experiences. Because of that, he’s now able to defeat 10 opponents with one blow which is on par with other experts.
‘On the other hand, Bubble’s directing and camera skills are obviously outstanding as well. If it wasn’t for her [Photography Ability], “Fighting The Buddha” would not have been done so beautifully. Strictly speaking, [Photography Ability] provides the ability to appreciate beauty other than having excellent photography skills.
Needless to say, her [Directing Ability] is even more impressive. The fact that she was able to stun experienced peers from various departments of the temporary production team shows how capable she is.
‘In other words, now that I’ve obtained the [Bronze Ability Enhancement Voucher], I can now allow one of my monsters to obtain an ability of that caliber!’
Su Yang did not even consider monsters who did not have a human form such as Gru and Jin Jin. ‘Even if they obtain a bronze ability, they would not be of much help anyway.’
‘Pool is busy with the milk tea shop and has too much on its hands at the moment, so I’ll leave it out as well.
‘That means the remaining candidates are Sanque and Little Deeny.
‘Both of them desperately needs the [Bronze Ability Enhancement Voucher], but… Little Deeny has such a high learning capability, plus she has eight cores.
‘If I were to give her 2 months, she would definitely be able to learn a Bronze Ability on her own. Thus, there’s no need for me to use a voucher on her to gain an ability.’
Therefore, the moment Su Yang received the [Bronze Ability Enhancement Voucher], he only had one monster in mind, Sanque.
‘Sanque definitely could use a Bronze Ability since it’s well versed in medical skills and has the ability to treat illnesses. Aside from that, it’s even working on its health supplement products as well.
‘Also, my hopes of completing the Gold mission is also heavily reliant on it, so… would it be useful for it to develop an ability related to [Nutrition] or [Potion]?’
Even though he had such thoughts, Su Yang knew that he would have to wait till night before he could add more points to Sanque. After all, Sanque was still at the health supplements company and had yet to return home…
However, it was fine even if he could not add more points for Sanque. Su Yang could use the time to make the special item for that week.
He opened the system shop and took a look at the item required for [Light bulb of Unknown Ability], +1 item, [Tungsten Bulb] x1, [Magnet] x2, [Alcohol] x10ml…
‘There aren’t many things required, plus it looks very simple.
‘This should be done within a very short period.’
He then looked at the [Random Voucher] on the fourth panel.
Even though the item was gone, the countdown continued.
‘I remember that the system seems to have reminded me that the countdown timer was to refresh the item and would not be affected by the purchase of the item.
‘In other words, within a week, this slot will be useless.’
After looking through the system shop, Su Yang did not dawdle any longer. He exited the virtual space and decided to go out to buy the items required for the recipe.
Su Yang exited the virtual space and went down from the second floor of the villa. He then got onto his electric bike and left the villa.
The guards who saw him on the way had strange looks on their faces. Perhaps they had never seen someone ride an electric bike out of the villa.
Su Yang did not mind.
‘Driving is so troublesome, just trying to park the car would take longer than buying the items I need on its own. Hence, It would be better to ride an electric bike.’
As for where his electric car came from, of course it was… made with [Unknown Sticky Note].
“Riding on my beloved motorcycle, never to get stuck in traffic!” Su Yang hummed a tune as he grabbed the 2 handles of the bike and headed to the supermarket.
However, shortly after he left the villa, Su Yang accidentally glanced at the roadside and was stunned. ‘Huh? Who is that? Isn’t that Qu Xuan?
Su Yang sized up Qu Xuan.
His handsome face was wet with ink and his sportswear was stained as well. He looked crestfallen like he had experienced some kind of life-threatening setback.
Su Yang was amused by his expression. He stopped the bike and alighted. Then, he greeted, “Qu Xuan, what’s wrong?”
Qu Xuan was walking along the road when he suddenly heard Su Yang calling his name. He raised his head in surprise and saw Su Yang standing beside a yellow electric scooter.
When Qu Xuan saw Su Yang, tears almost gushed out of his eyes. He shouted at Su Yang, aggrieved, “Mr. President! You have to help me!”
With that, he pounced on Su Yang, wanting to hug him and cry.
Looking at Qu Xuan’s ink-covered body, Su Yang lifted his bike and retreated a few steps without hesitation. He avoided Qu Xuan’s pounce and almost made Qu Xuan sprain his waist.
He coughed and stopped the car before helping Qu Xuan up. “Just tell me what’s going on and don’t touch me.”
Qu Xuan raised his head. Due to the ink… there was a decadent charm to his originally sunny face which made him look even more handsome instead!
Su Yang could not help but curse in his heart. ‘Are you trying to kill off all your competitors? Sc*m! I’m not swearing at anyone, I was just talking about the layer of froth on the surface of a liquid.’
Qu Xuan looked at Su Yang with tears in his eyes and said, “Mr. President, you have no idea. I’ve been living in hell for the past few days.”
“That witch has been going up against me during class and after class. Furthermore, she didn’t even attend military training just to go against me!”
Su Yang was confused. “Who?”
Qu Xuan was furious. “Guo Xiaoying!”
Su Yang was speechless
‘So it’s Guo Xiaoying…’
Su Yang suddenly remembered that she had accidentally seen Guo Xiaoying’s plan to teach Qu Xuan a lesson in her memory. ‘Is it possible that… she’s already carried out her plans?
‘If she has… then Qu Xuan is in deep trouble.’
Qu Xuan then told Su Yang about his tragic past.
His soccer ball exploded when he was kicking it. At night, he walked on the road and tripped over a rope that had suddenly appeared. When he came out of the school building, he was covered in ink. Even the bicycle that he was going to ride had its chain removed.
In conclusion, that devil had done all sorts of bad things and deserves to die horribly!
When he was done hearing Qu Xuan’s story, Su Yang was glad that he did not provoke Guo Xiaoying.
At the same time, looking at Qu Xuan’s pitiful look, Su Yang felt that he should stop his nightmare.
After all, they were friends.
So… Su Yang gave Qu Xuan Xue Ya’s WeChat which he got from Guo Xiaoying’s memory. He then told Qu Xuan not to pursue love in such a high-profile manner anymore. He would be better off being in a secret relationship with Xue Ya temporarily.
‘Even though Guo Xiaoying wanted to make Qu Xuan suffer, there is some truth in her words.
‘If Qu Xuan continues to create trouble, it would not be good for any of us. Qu Xuan would become the laughing stock of the college and Xue Ya would become the topic of conversation among all the girls in the liberal arts faculty. As for Guo Xiaoying… Well, judging from her lack of propriety, she might be walking down the path of crime…
‘Now that I’ve given him Xue Ya’s real WeChat account, the two of them could be considered to be able to contact each other. If what they have is true love, then they would definitely end up being together with my help.
‘If the two of them don’t end up together, then it would be best for them to end their relationship as soon as possible and pretend that they weren’t even together in the first place. That sounds like a good plan.’
Su Yang pondered for a moment. ‘Even if the two of them got together, they would have to keep their relationship secret for the time being. After all, Guo Xiaoying is very protective of her best friend.
‘My goodness, other couples who were in secret relationships would have to guard against their parents, but Qu Xuan and Xue Ya would actually have to guard themselves against Xue Ya’s best friend…
‘As expected of Qu Xuan, even his relationship has to be unique.’
As he sighed, Su Yang sent Qu Xuan, who was so happy that he was about to call Su Yang his brother-in-law, away.
After bidding farewell to Qu Xuan, Su Yang heard the system notification. [Random Mission completed. Random Point +1]. Then, Su Yang got on his electric bike and went to the supermarket to buy the items required for the recipe. ‘I still need to go back home and get the recipe item done.’
