I'll Add Points To All Things Chapter 525 - Ability Upgraded, Advanced Verbal Cannon

Chapter 525: Ability Upgraded, Advanced Verbal Cannon

With that thought in mind, Su Yang deactivated his [Memory Labyrinth Hourgla.s.s] ability and placed the hourgla.s.s in his pocket. He then returned it to the virtual s.p.a.ce so that Satantan could vomit blood to recharge it.

Meanwhile, he sat beside Lin Jiali’s bed and activated his [Ability Combo], [The Devil’s Angel Halo] and [Verbal Cannon]!

“Jiali, stop hiding under the covers, It’s not good for your health,” advised Su Yang softly as he sat beside Lin Jiali.

Lin Jiali turned around and moved away from Su Yang before she wrapped herself up even tighter. However, her slender legs and flowery b.u.t.t were facing Su Yang. No matter how he looked at her, there was… Something for him to see..

Su Yang looked at her exposed body and gulped. He suppressed the ripples in his heart and said, “To be honest… I know what you’re thinking.”

Lin Jiali remained silent under her blanket.

Su Yang asked, “Are you thinking whether Han Yi will take away your position as the most popular girl?”

“Do you feel that Han Yi is intentionally returning to the agency to compete with you and take away your resources when she’s obviously doing so well outside?”

“Are you wondering why Han Yi is trying to s.n.a.t.c.h me away from you when I’m clearly your 1 and only hardcore fan?”

With Su Yang’s 3 consecutive barrage of questions, even though Lin Jiali did not say anything, she stopped moving around. It was obvious that Su Yang, who had seen through her memory, was right on the dot.

Then, Su Yang patted her soft body lightly and pulled the blanket down from her head. This time, he was not met with a strong resistance. “Right then, Han Yi’s not around at the moment, so let’s have a chat.”

When she heard Su Yang’s words, Lin Jiali couldn’t hold it in anymore. She turned around and looked at Su Yang with reddened eyes and an aggrieved expression on her delicate face. She said in a choked voice, “Since you know so much, why are you still asking her to come back?”

[s.p.a.ce Traversing Eyes] judged it as. [Aggrieved], [Aggrieved], [Aggrieved]…

Su Yang caressed her soft hair and looked into her eyes. He smiled and said, “For you.”

‘I swear to the heavens that I have been thinking about this very question the entire night and have come up with many answers. I guessed that Su Yang would come up with some kind of excuse when I asked him that question. However… None of the excuses I thought of was what Su Yang has just said.

‘For me?

‘I don’t want Han Yi to come back. If you are really doing it for me, it’s best that we never meet again!’

At that moment, Lin Jiali was very angry with Han Yi.

Su Yang looked at Lin Jiali’s face that was filled with disbelief. He could not help but smile and explain, “Don’t doubt me. I’m really doing it because of you.”

“Think about our relations.h.i.+p compared to hers and mine. Obviously I’m on your side.”

“Our agency doesn’t have many resources and we don’t have many famous celebrities either. So, we definitely need a female celebrity who has some influence in the film industry to take the lead. With her as our mascot, you’ll be able to receive more jobs as well.”

Lin Jiali may be a little silly, but she was not stupid. She looked at Su Yang as though he was a fool and portrayed that Su Yang was definitely joking with her through her facial expression…”

Su Yang coughed awkwardly. ‘What the f*ck? Is my [Beginner Verbal Cannon] ability really ineffective? This is completely unexpected…

‘I thought that I would be able to fool Lin Jiali easily, but I just realized that Lin Jiali isn’t being brought along by my [Verbal Cannon] ability. It seemed that Advanced Random Missions aren’t simple at all…’

With that thought in mind, Su Yang did not try to hide anymore. He immediately activated [Intermediate Verbal Cannon].

Su Yang’s [Intermediate Verbal Cannon] was actually the first Bronze Ability to be upgraded. However, there was an additional price for that ability, he had to pay 10 coins per minute upon activating that ability.

10 coins was actually insignificant to Su Yang at that moment. However, Su Yang being a calculative person who would be stingy with even 1 coin, thought that the price was too heavy.

Hence, Su Yang had no choice but to only activate it during a critical moment.

And at that moment… Su Yang had no choice but to use it for the sake of the Random Prize Voucher!

With that thought in mind, Su Yang activated [Intermediate Verbal Cannon] and added the additional effect of [Intermediate Verbal Cannon]. Instantly, his words became much more convincing.

Then, he continued, “You have to believe me. I’m serious. You know very well what my current situation is. I may have some money and resources, but it isn’t a lot. Therefore, I need someone who can lend me some resources so that I can pave a way for you.”

When Lin Jiali saw Su Yang’s “sincere” gaze and “heartfelt” words, her heart started to waver.

‘That’s weird. What he just said was similar to what he said earlier, but why do I… Feel that he’s being sincere now?

‘I can’t help but feel like believing he’s really doing it for me…

‘But… The rationality in my heart is reminding me not to fall for “Hateful Person No. 1’s” tricks…

‘Men are all liars, the man before me even more so. Who has ever hired a compet.i.tor and then said they’re doing it for our own good? Wouldn’t they be hiring a coach instead?

‘But… Su Yang seems really sincere.’

Lin Jiali hesitated, not knowing if she should believe Su Yang.

When Su Yang saw how hesitant Lin Jiali was, he naturally wanted to press on while he was at the advantage. Hence, he used his [Intermediate Verbal Cannon] ability to fool Lin Jiali. He wanted to make Lin Jiali believe that he was doing that for her own good and would not neglect her just because Han Yi returned.

Su Yang’s explanation lasted for 5 minutes, which was exactly how long Lin Jiali was hesitant for as well.

Su Yang was on the verge of going crazy when he saw how Lin Jiali was clearly tempted and about to believe him, but just wouldn’t be convinced completely. ‘Why don’t you believe me? What else do you want me to do?

‘I can feel that she’s 70% convinced now, but there’s still the remaining 30% to go.

‘The problem is… No matter how hard I try, Lin Jiali keeps on holding up the last of her guard and refuses to let me break through…

‘What should I do?’

Su Yang thought about the mission to reward him with the Random Prize Voucher. He was thinking how he was just 1 step away from breaking through her defenses. Then, he gritted his teeth and stomped his feet!

‘Why don’t I add a point for [Verbal Cannon]?’

Su Yang had thoroughly thought about it. ‘Bronze Points are meant to be used, not admired!

‘I’ve previously bought 2 Bronze Points from the system shop and the Bronze Points in the system shop will be refreshed In another week. When that happens, I’ll be able to buy it again, so there’s no need for me to be conservative about using it at all!

‘Since I’m now faced with this situation, I’ll just spend a Bronze Point!

‘After all, [Verbal Cannon] has always been 1 of my most important abilities!’

At that thought, Su Yang did not hesitate anymore and decided to add a point directly!

Then, he deactivated [Intermediate Verbal Cannon] and said to Lin Jiali, “Jiali, why don’t you calm down first while I go to the toilet.”

At that moment, Lin Jiali’s att.i.tude towards Su Yang was much better as she nodded her head silently.

Su Yang went downstairs to the familiar toilet in Lin Jiali’s apartment. He went in and locked the door before switching on the system.

The top column of the system displayed Su Yang’s’ supplies’: 35 special items, 15 little monsters, 7 Bronze Abilities, 4 Silver Abilities, 2 Bronze Points, 5 Random Points, 19 Guardian Talismans, and… 31,320 coins.

Su Yang clicked on the Bronze Point and a system notification rang in his ears. [Bronze Point obtained, you may choose 1 of the 3 Random Abilities to add a point onto.]

At the end of the notification, an option box appeared before Su Yang with 3 options inside:

[1. Beginner Single Handed Instant Noodle Making]

[2. Beginner Instant Noodle Making Without Condiments]

[3. Beginner Bare Mouth Instant Noodle Eating]

Su Yang was speechless as he looked at the 3 random Bronze Abilities…

‘What’s wrong? Why am I being involved with instant noodles recently? Can I neither leave my house nor have any stockade?

‘Thankfully, these 3 random abilities are all different. If they were all the same ability with instant noodles, they would have been chosen for me automatically. If that happens, who am I supposed to blame?!

‘Also… what kind of lousy abilities are these! Other than the [Bare Mouth Instant Noodle Eating] which is a little more interesting, what are the other 2?!’

‘Hold on, [Bare Mouth Instant Noodle Eating]…

‘Who doesn’t eat with their bare mouth? Do people usually eat with their eyes?!’

Because Su Yang did not use [Lucky Disfiguring Brick] to smack his face, the Bronze Ability that he randomly obtained were all trash. Hence, there was nothing for him to hesitate about. After complaining, he ignored all 3 and chose the hidden fourth option. Summon the system, open up the Bronze Ability List to find his [Intermediate Verbal Cannon] ability and… Add a point.

As the Bronze Point was added to [Intermediate Verbal Cannon], the 3 abilities in front of Su Yang disappeared and a +1 image appeared on the [Beginner Verbal Cannon].

Next, the words [Intermediate Verbal Cannon] slowly turned into silver ash and disappeared.

A moment later, a pile of golden ash slowly appeared from where it had been, forming a new line of small words, [Advanced Verbal Cannon].

With the upgrade of his power, various conversational techniques, experiences and past cases all entered his mind.

Su Yang felt as though he was a sponge, eagerly absorbing the knowledge.

Su Yang was completely immersed in the art of conversation. Furthermore, unlike the previous 2 levels of [Verbal Cannon], Su Yang realized that the true ability of [Verbal Cannon] was not just the ability to talk, but also the ability to read the other party’s thoughts and emotions.

Other than that, based on the tone used, the speaker would be able to make the other party believe them easier, provoke their anger, make them feel relaxed depending on the circ.u.mstances, how they could induce their sadness and so on. All those series of supportive knowledge were instilled into [Verbal Cannon].

It took Su Yang exactly 20 minutes before he could completely absorb the ability.

When he opened his eyes, he felt like if he had partic.i.p.ated in some kind of speech compet.i.tion, he would easily get first place. Moreover, with the help of the background music and the lighting design, it would be enough for him to make all the audience cry. ‘This ability is too powerful!

With [Advanced Verbal Cannon], it would be a piece of cake to deal with Lin Jiali!

‘However… The only problem is, just like [Intermediate Verbal Cannon], [Advanced Verbal Cannon] actually has an additional effect and that additional effect also comes with a price.’

Su Yang was speechless when he looked at the additional effect…

‘Whatever it is, no matter how weird the additional effect is, I’ve got to settle Lin Jiali and the Bronze-ranked Advance Random Mission…’
