Infinite Ebullience
Chapter 83 - 83 46 Rewards Part 2

83: Chapter 46: Rewards (Part 2) 83: Chapter 46: Rewards (Part 2) Tang Zheng was almost dazzled by the extensive list of tech items available, ranging from minuscule spider trackers the size of a grain of rice, to nano-medical repair robots and massive orbital cannons.

All sorts of fantastical, futuristic technology could be found here.

“Are these all real?” As Tang Zheng casually clicked on the entry for the Thunderstorm rifle, a 3D projection of the imposing weapon with a striking design appeared on the holographic screen of the wristwatch, rotating 360 degrees to give the buyer a detailed view.

“Of course.” The voice of the Meteorite wristwatch dripped with pride, “This rifle can shoot fist-sized blue lightning balls which explode in a half-meter radius upon impact.

Given human bodily resilience, a single shot is enough to obliterate a target.

The clip holds a hundred lightning bullets, and the gun allows for single or rapid fire.

It’s one of the finest individual weapons.”

“A thousand points, plus two Bronze Seeds—it seems a bit expensive for a B-class item like this,” Tang Zheng complained, “it’s just the same as my Howling Reaper.”

“Every item level has a purchase cap,” explained the wristwatch.

“For C-class items, only points are required.

For B-class items, the cap is at 2,000 points plus up to ten Bronze Seeds.

A-class items are capped at 5,000 points plus up to ten Silver Seeds or Gold Seeds.

S-class items are capped at 10,000 points, plus tens of Gold Seeds, or a Star Seed.

SS-class items are even more expensive…”

“Stop, stop, don’t say any more.” Tang Zheng grimaced, “Just hearing these prices makes me feel like I’m poor.

With my 4,500 points, I can’t even get anything.”

“Higher level seeds can be used to replace lower-level ones and points, but the exchange rate is rather high.

There are also discount cards in the game—I hope you can get one soon.” The Meteorite wristwatch continued, evidently not wanting to discourage Tang Zheng.

“Have you decided what to buy?”

“Let me look more.” Tang Zheng hadn’t made up his mind yet.

He wanted the best bang for his buck.

“The magical items include Holy Swords, staffs, scrolls, concoctions, and more.

They are mainly used to fend off spirits, ghosts, and demons.

For instance, if you are teleported to a fantastical world, your technological weapons would be heavily weakened.

So, you always need a few magical items for self-defence.” The Meteorite wasn’t upset, and continued introducing items.

“The auxiliary items are mainly cards: Bloodline cards, Skill cards, Hero Cards, and several potions to increase strength, agility, and defensive power.”

“As a newbie, I recommend you buy the Blink Card and the Thunderstrike Card.

One is for fleeing, the other is for attacking.

If you have sufficient points, we suggest buying a Bloodline Card as well.”

“Upon using a Bloodline Card, you will possess the card’s bloodline for five minutes.

For example, if you use a Spider-Man bloodline card in a high-agility survival game, you will have all of Spider-Man’s abilities for five minutes.”

“Werewolf Card, Medusa Card, Red Dragon Card, Hulk Card…they really have everything.

If I use the Red Dragon Card, would I turn into a dragon?” Tang Zheng was a bit excited by the idea of becoming a superhero for five minutes.

“No, but you will possess the extraordinary strength of a dragon.”

“What’s up with these Hero Cards?” Tang Zheng’s eyes lingered on the Hero Cards.

He saw many familiar faces, including the infamous ‘Terminator T800.'”

“Upon using a Hero Card, you can summon a loyal servant who will serve you for five minutes.”

“These cards are not only ridiculously expensive, but they are also consumable items that can only be used once.” Tang Zheng saw the small print at the bottom of the card saying ‘one-time consumable item,’ and he couldn’t help but complain.

“That’s a real rip-off!”

“Five hundred points for a hero bodyguard, it’s a pretty good deal.” The Meteor wristwatch was quite user-friendly and highlighted a few options in the entertainment category.

“Or would you like to have some fun and get some cute girls.”

“Hey, hey, go back, I think I saw Asuka and Ling Boli from EVA just now.

How come they are in the Hero Cards?

They should be in the entertainment category, right?” Tang Zheng’s keen eyes caught the two infamous anime female characters.

“Those represent their states when piloting EVAs.

They’re also available in the entertainment category.” The virtual screen refreshed, and lifelike 3D projections of Asuka and Ling Boli appeared in front of Tang Zheng, both in swimsuits.

“Alright, suggest something useful.

Meteor, what do you recommend?” Tang Zheng was tempted to get many things from the entertainment category, such as the basic US Dollar Card, futuristic computers, anime female characters, but he managed to control his desires.

“Only the items that can help us survive are truly important,” he said.

“You’re no fun at all.

Well, I would strongly recommend the self-strength enhancement system.” As the Meteor said this, seven major types of enhancements were listed on the screen.

“In the Silver Trojan system, human abilities are divided into seven categories: raw strength, intellect, faith, endurance, neural response speed, immunity, and cell regeneration.”

“Raw strength enhancements include muscle development, power, organ viability.

Neural response speed enhancements are about instantaneous reaction and explosive power between nerves and muscles.

In simple terms, it makes your responses faster, your movements quicker and more agile.

At a certain point of enhancement, you can see and dodge the trajectory of a bullet, or finish a 100-meter race in three seconds.

‘Endurance’ is resistance, life vitality, and the ability to resist and withstand damage, while cell endurance is straightforward: with this enhancement, anyone could easily run a marathon.

So enhancing these three aspects is the quickest way to see beneficial results.”

“‘Intellect’ refers to memory and speed of thought, the utilization of the brain, judging ability while ‘faith’ is more aptly called psychic and willpower here, involving perception, intuition, and neural tolerance.

Enhancing it will make your spirit stronger, and you won’t be scared anymore when watching horror movies, for example.”

“‘Immunity’ is resistance to viruses, bacteria, radiation environments—in a nutshell, it makes you less prone to diseases in various harsh environments.

‘Cell Regeneration’ is the immediate and long-term healing ability of the body.

Although the effects of enhancing these two aspects are not easily noticeable, they increase your survival rate, as constantly participating in games in various environments is a great challenge to the adaptability of the body.”

“Of course, what aspect you primarily enhance depends on your seed abilities.

That’s how you achieve the best results—for example, if you have a healing seed ability and then enhance cell regeneration, you might become nearly unkillable.”

“The perfect score for a normal adult human’s physical attributes is 100.

You can buy 10 points of enhancement for 100 points; in other words, 1,000 points can double your physical attributes.”
