I’ll Add Points To All Things Chapter 163 – The Fourth Option Of The Bronze Ability

Chapter 163: The Fourth Option Of The Bronze Ability

Su Yang fell into deep thought as he looked at the three options provided.

He had gotten used to the strangeness of the system and actually started to understand how the system worked, so no matter how strange the abilities might be, they must have their own use…right?

‘What can I do with this Cat’s cradle[1] ability? Pull some strings out and strangle someone to death? No, no…this is just a normal ability. Pulling strings out of nothing would be a special ability.’

Su Yang looked at the second option.

‘Skipping rope with rubber bands? What can I do with this?!’

He could not come up with something useful after thinking for a long while. In the end, he looked at the last option.

‘Bowl-washing with hands? Who the eff washes bowls without their hands?! If I get this ability, does it mean I won’t hurt my hands while washing bowls? I can just use a better detergent and a glove! DAMN IT!’

Su Yang fell into despair. He was okay with the abilities being strange, but out of the three garbage abilities, he really did not know what to do with them.

‘Why don’t I simply pick one?’

“Eeny, meenie, miny, moe!” Su Yang opened his eyes and saw his finger pointing at the [Bowl-washing with hands] ability.

‘F***. Well, at least, I can save myself some detergent…’ Su Yang consoled himself while he moved his finger closer to the third option. However, right before his finger could touch the system, he froze all of a sudden.

‘Wait! Wait just a freaking minute! Since I can add a second point to things, does it mean I can add a second Bronze Point to my abilities?’

With that in mind, Su Yang bolted up in surprise.

‘YEAH! Why didn’t I think of that? Why didn’t I think of adding a second point to my abilities?!’

He then navigated the system and opened up the list of abilities that he possessed.

[Elementary Close Combat Ability (Point-addition available)]

[Elementary Verbal Cannon Ability (Point-addition available)]

‘I f**king swear I never saw any hints about adding a second point to the abilities from the system!’

Su Yang switched his attention to the two Bronze Missions that he had just completed.

*’It seems like it’s because I never hold a Bronze Point long enough…Similar to the point-addition for the items, if I don’t have Random Points, the plus sign won’t show up…*My goodness! The system is really cunning!’

With that, Su Yang realized that he actually had a hidden fourth option to choose from.

‘Great!’

He added the Bronze Point to the [Elementary Verbal Cannon] without a second thought.

As for why not the [Elementary Close Combat]? Su Yang believed that he was actually strong enough. Other than the female T-Rex, Pan Zhaodi, he could take on three to five normal goons at once. It was more worth it to invest the point into the [Verbal Cannon].

The [Verbal Cannon] was extremely helpful in many situations. Be it the missions from the system or liaising with other companies, Su Yang relied on this special ability to bluff his way through.

After he added the Bronze Point to the [Elementary Verbal Cannon], the three provided options disappeared.

A +1 sign appeared beside the [Elementary Verbal Cannon] before the words turned into black and disappeared. A moment later, some silver glitter flew in and formed a new line of words: [Intermediate Verbal Cannon].

‘An Intermediate ability!’

Following the level up of the [Verbal Cannon], a series of talking and bluffing techniques flooded into Su Yang’s mind followed by the ability to sense the flaws in one’s emotions and how to create resonance with someone. He suddenly felt like a conman who had had experience bluffing for more than a decade.

He closed his eyes for a full 10 minutes to absorb and adapt to the new knowledge.

At the same time, he found out that the Intermediate ability did not only boost his existing techniques, but it also came with an additional effect. He tapped on the description of the [Intermediate Verbal Cannon].

A new description was added at the bottom.

[Intermediate Verbal Cannon]

[Effect: Your words are like a magnet. People around you will listen to you automatically, and they will unconsciously find your words reasonable and believe what you say. Even against a strong-willed target, your words will be able to affect the target to a certain extent.]

[Note: This additional effect can be turned on and off. It is more effective on a single target.]

[Cost: Consumes 10 Point Coins per minute.]

[Remark: Men! Bring me my Italian Cannon! I will bluff (blast) them to hell!]

‘This Intermediate ability is really awesome! It is more effective now and even has an additional effect! I’m really wasting this skill set by not being a real conman…but the cost of the additional effect is unreasonable…’

Su Yang checked on his Point Coins. He currently had 350 Point Coins, which would allow him to deceive people more effectively for 35 minutes. He was already addicted to bluffing people, so the additional cost somehow deterred his addiction and his interest.

‘But…with this new additional effect, does it mean I can bluff my way through the campus singing competition later? Since I’ve already caused a disaster yesterday, I might as well bluff (blast) them with the cannon!

‘Besides, ever since that b*stard Sanque got the second point and can transform, he acts like a king in the house. Maybe I can try bluffing him.’

Su Yang giggled sinisterly. ‘Now, I know why people like to lie and bluff! It feels really good!’

‘Hmm? This strange entrepreneur path somehow feels and sounds familiar…Who’s that guy who bluffed his way to Nasdaq and got his company listed again? Bel something…’

…

In the blink of an eye, classes for the day ended and it was time for the singing competition finals!

As the event co-hosted by Shanghai University, Shanghai Jiaotong University and East China University of Science and Technology, which were the three key universities in Shanghai, it had become the biggest event in Baoshan District lately and had garnered quite the attention.

Furthermore, when celebrities were invited to attend the competition, it excited the students and citizens of Shanghai together.

The final of the campus singing competition was split into three stages: the top 8, the top 4, and the grand finals. The event tonight would determine the top 8 candidates from the 16 seeds.

In the evening, Su Yang took some time to meet the 50 fans that Chu Xia had selected. Every single one of them was very excited, but Su Yang reminded them to behave and warned them of the consequences.

These 50 fans had to follow orders. They were only allowed to cheer and scream when they were given the signal and must keep quiet at other times. After all, they were the fans from the local fan club, and they came from an organized background, so they should behave and not embarrass their idol.

All 50 fans obediently nodded.

“Don’t worry, President!”

“Yeah! We will behave!”

“We’ll do our best to show our support for Han Yi!”

Su Yang nodded happily. Chu Xia’s selection was great as every single one of them seemed obedient.

Then, one of the fans said, “Don’t worry, President! We will make Han Yi proud and ensure she receives more support than that Lin woman!”

‘Can you not mention her? I’m having a headache right now…There are seats on both sides. Where should I sit?’

Just when the thought popped up, a familiar voice sounded from behind him. “Su Yang? Why are you here? Who are they?”

Su Yang turned around right away. ‘Holy sh*t! The Devil! Oh, no, wait…Lin Jiali…’
