Complete Martial Arts Attributes Chapter 87 - Something Happened

Chapter 87: Something Happened

When w.a.n.g Teng reached home, he noticed that his house was locked. He had no choice but to take out his keys and open the door.

He took off his shoes and shouted towards the second floor.

“Mom, I’m back.”

However, the villa was empty. It was extremely quiet. No one was present.

No one’s home?

w.a.n.g Teng walked up the stairs and noticed that the house was empty. Instantly. he found it strange.

Have they gone out to play?

w.a.n.g Teng shook his head helplessly. He felt that his parents were really carefree.

He went back to his room and put down his luggage.

Then, he took his clothes and walked into the bathroom. He had a good bath.

As the sweat and bloodstains on his body got washed away, w.a.n.g Teng immediately felt invigorated. The tiredness he was feeling significantly subsided.

There was no one at home, so he laid on his bed and counted his gains this time.

w.a.n.g Teng scanned his attributes and saw an additional Beginner Stage Arrow Talent in his talent row.

At the same time, he got a foundation stage Basic Arrow Skill battle technique!

These two new attributes came from the same person.

As a long-range attack, the arrow was a pretty good choice. He could upgrade it when he had the chance in the future.

As for his Force, he had two additional elements now, wood and water. But, the corresponding skill scriptures and battle techniques gave w.a.n.g Teng a headache.

It wasn’t a bad thing to have more Force elements. However, finding the corresponding Force skill scriptures and battle techniques required much effort and money.

But, he was delighted that his ice Force and fire Force had both crossed 70.

The power of these two Forces was impressive. They were able to increase his overall battle power greatly. It had reached 271 now. He was slowly moving towards the top standard of a one-star soldier-level martial warrior.

He was also left with 36 blank attributes. At first, after increasing his ice Force, he was left with 27 points. But, when he was climbing down the mountain, he picked up a few attribute bubbles dropped by the dead mutated beasts along the way. There was a vast number of mutated beasts that had died.

Unfortunately, he was with Governor Jiang and the other leaders, so he couldn’t collect all the attribute bubbles. If not, he would have gotten more blank attributes!

When he killed the star beast, no blank attributes were dropped. He found this a little frustrating.

Shouldn’t star beasts have a higher probability of dropping blank attributes?

Maybe it’s just a probability problem. Sometimes, there is, and sometimes, there isn’t. But it still gave me a star core!

w.a.n.g Teng took out the star core and observed it with his Spiritual Sight. A ball of thick fire Force was concentrated in this small star core. The amount of Force inside was quite astonis.h.i.+ng.

He could use this star core to make dan medicines and refined weapons. It could also be used as a Force core. There was a wide range of applications.

No wonder the price of the star core was so high.

He didn’t make a loss since he had gained this star core.

A smile appeared at the corner of w.a.n.g Teng’s lips. He took out the box Director He gave him thereafter. There was a star bone inside.

Every time he saw this star bone, he couldn’t help but feel amazed.

It was entirely blackish green and was glittering and translucent. It also gave off a metallic l.u.s.ter. Thin line patterns covered its whole surface, so perfect that it looked like a piece of art.

Based on what Director He said, this star bone came from a star beast known as the Spirit Shadow Scorpion. It possessed the special ability ‘spiritual shadow.’ w.a.n.g Teng touched his chin, a glimmer flas.h.i.+ng in his eyes.

There was a piece of paper in the box describing this talent ability of the spirit shadow star bone.

w.a.n.g Teng was dumbfounded when he read the information on the paper.

Spiritual shadow meant being able to move quickly in the dark, as elusive as a ghost or spirit. It was an outstanding ability to catch people off their guards.

It would definitely give its opponent unexpected surprises during a battle if it was made into a special weapon.

What kind of weapon can it make? For a moment, w.a.n.g Teng had no idea.

Star bones were extremely rare and precious. He didn’t want to rush into this whole thing. It would be a waste of this treasured item.

He kept the star core and the star bone properly.

w.a.n.g Teng went back to his bed. He hadn’t slept for an entire night, so exhaustion was was.h.i.+ng over his body in waves. His body had its limits. Soon, he fell asleep.

When he woke up, it was already 9 am the following day.

The moment he woke up and looked at the time, he got a shock. He had slept for one day and one night.

I’m so hungry!

He could hear his stomach rumbling. w.a.n.g Teng climbed up from his bed and washed up. When he went down the stairs, he saw the helper, Aunt Chen, working in the kitchen instead. He asked in surprise, “Aunt Chen, where is my mother? I came back two days ago, but I didn’t see her.”

“Young Master, you’re awake. Madam went out early in the morning,” said Aunt Chen.

“She went out early in the morning? Where did she go?” w.a.n.g Teng asked curiously.

“Something seemed to have happened in the company. I’m not sure about it. Madam didn’t tell me the details,” Aunt Chen replied.

“Something at the company?” w.a.n.g Teng felt even more puzzled. Suddenly, he got an awful feeling in his heart.

“Mr. w.a.n.g hasn’t come back ever since he went on the business trip,” Aunt Chen hesitated, but she still said it in the end.

“What!”

w.a.n.g Teng’s expression turned ugly. He was almost certain that something terrible had happened.

He turned and ran upstairs. After a while, he came down carrying his weapon carrier casket and rushed out of the house in a hurry.

“Young Master, you haven’t eaten in two days. I heated some buns and soy milk. Bring them along with you.” Aunt Chen chased after him and pa.s.sed the food in her hands.

w.a.n.g Teng was indeed hungry. He took the breakfast and thanked Aunt Chen. Then, he drove his car out of the garage and sped towards their company building.

Half an hour later, w.a.n.g Teng arrived at a business district in his car. He drove the car into the office building’s parking lot.

He took the lift and came to the receptionist.

The pretty lady at the front desk stood up and asked, “h.e.l.lo, how can I help you?”

“I want to look for Li Xiumei,” w.a.n.g Teng replied.

The pretty lady at the front desk was stunned. “Who is Li Xiumei?”

w.a.n.g Teng was speechless. She didn’t even know her boss’s wife. He looked at the lady’s chest. Was this the legendary large chest but no brain?

At this moment, a security guard ran over and shouted hurriedly, “Young Master w.a.n.g! Why are you here?”

“You are?” w.a.n.g Teng looked at the security guard who dashed over. He pondered for a moment, but he couldn’t remember the person’s name.

“Haha, Young Master w.a.n.g, a man of your eminence has a short memory. I’m Old Sun,” the security guard laughed awkwardly.

“Oh! I remember. Old Sun, the director of the security department!” w.a.n.g Teng finally remembered the man.

“That’s me.” Old Sun grinned from ear to ear and nodded. Then, he said to the pretty lady at the front desk, “Little Mei, this is our Little Boss w.a.n.g. Hurry up and greet him!”

“Young Master w.a.n.g.” The pretty lady at the front desk was alarmed. She continued in a flurry, “I’m sorry. I didn’t recognize you just now.”

“It’s alright. It’s not a huge matter.” w.a.n.g Teng waved his hand. He asked Old Sun, “Old Sun, did my mom come to the office? Where is she now?”

“Madam should be in the meeting room. Boss Bao from the office opposite just came in with a bunch of people. I think that the Deputy General Manager Jia from our company is planning to change jobs,” Old Sun lowered his voice and answered.

“Bao Zeqing.” w.a.n.g Teng squinted. After the w.a.n.g family collapsed in his past life, this b.a.s.t.a.r.d came out and divided his father’s company. In this lifetime, he didn’t expect the fellow to jump out before his family met a crisis. It looked like many things had changed!
