After upgrading his bloodline, Ning Shi gained a total of 6000 experience points. He had allocated 2000 experience points to the bloodline warrior.
[Bloodline warrior level has been upgraded to Level 2 (0/5000), physique +2, spiritual power +1, skill point +1, potential point +1.]
Bloodline warrior was awesome. After upgrading, it would directly increase physique and spiritual power.
Now, Ning Shi's attributes were as follows:
Game Avatar: Ning Shi
Physique: 22 (35)
Spiritual Power: 13 (20)
Appearance: 8 (very handsome)
Family Background: 5 (normal)
Bloodline: Giant bear bloodline (limit physique: 35, limit spiritual power: 20)
Profession: Hunter Level 7 (1200/1800) / bloodline warrior Level 2 (0/5000)
Skills: Archery skill Level 3, trap making Level 1, forest running Level 1
Talents: Learning (blue), giant strength (blue), regeneration (gold)
Achievements: None.
He still had 4000 experience points, 2 potential points and 4 skill points.
The giant bear bloodline only gave the talent, not skills. Unlike Lena's wind-patterned python, it had some wind-type skills.
Ning Shi urgently needed to learn close combat skills to bring out his abnormal physique.
Ning Shi first spent 3800 experience points to level up the hunter level to Level 9 (200/5000), and then gained 2 skill points and 2 potential points.
This way, he had 4 potential points and 6 skill points.
To level up the giant bear bloodline to the violent bear bloodline, he needed 3 potential points. Ning Shi was about to continue upgrading when a system notification appeared.
[It is recommended that the avatar synthesize the bloodline first to increase the potential of the bloodline before proceeding with the bloodline upgrade. The higher the current bloodline level, the more difficult it is to synthesize the bloodline.]
Seeing the system notification, Ning Shi did not forcefully upgrade the bloodline.
Next, he had to learn close combat skills, hunt magical beasts and find a bloodline that could be synthesized.
After a busy day, although his body was not tired, he felt mentally exhausted. Ning Shi then logged out of the game and handed the avatar over to the system hack.
When he returned to reality, he immediately clicked on synchronization. All the abilities of his avatar were synchronized to his main body.
It was already 12:30 in the morning. Ning Shi was famished. He wore sandals and walked onto the street.
Donglin City was a bustling city that never sleeps. Especially now that it was midsummer, there were even more people coming out to do activities in the middle of the night.
Ning Shi walked through two streets and arrived at a barbecue shop.
"Boss, 50 skewers of beef, 20 skewers of pork loin, 5 drumsticks, 2 eggplants, 2 skewers of leeks, 20 skewers of mutton skewers, 2 skewers of mutton loin..."
Ning Shi ordered a large number of barbeques and found a small open-air table to sit at.
The business of this barbecue shop was very good. Although it was early in the morning, it was still bustling with people. Three or five good friends gathered together to drink a little wine and eat some barbeque. It was like the daily life of the people.
After waiting for a while, the barbeque was served. Ning Shi ate until his mouth was full of oil. He drank a cold beer and indulged in the delicious food.
Just as he finished eating, there was a commotion at the next table. A shirtless, fat man with tattoos all over his arms was cursing loudly.
"Motherf*cker, I didn't spend money just to listen to music. Be obedient and don't be shameless!"
In front of him, a girl was holding a guitar and shivering.
On a hot summer day, the girl was wearing a short shirt that revealed her belly button and hot shorts on the lower body. She looked very sexy.
She was singing at a barbecue stall when she met a street thug who was obsessed with her.
"I don't want the money. I'm just singing, not a street girl."
The shirtless man reeked of alcohol and his face was red. It was obvious that he had drunk too much. When he heard the girl's words, he immediately pulled the girl into his arms.
"You took my money, how can you still pay me back!"
As he spoke, his hands began to move dishonestly.
When the boss saw this scene, he quickly came over to dissuade him. However, there were more than ten people at the table and he did not care about the boss at all.
The surrounding customers did not dare to come forward either. Those with a sense of justice had already called the police.
"What bad luck!" Ning Shi muttered and stood up.
"A dozen men bullying a girl, do they still have any face? Let go of her!"
The hooligans were drunk. When they saw that someone wanted to cause trouble, they stood up while cursing.
These people were all shirtless and had all sorts of tattoos. Ning Shi had finally opened his eyes.
"Idiot, I advise you to mind your own business. Looking at your delicate skin and tender flesh, it won't be fun if you get disfigured."
Ning Shi was not afraid of being stared at by more than a dozen hooligans. "You're the idiot. Let go of her."
The hooligans were already drunk. After being provoked by Ning Shi, how could they hold themselves back? One of the hooligans, a tall and thin man who was the closest to Ning Shi, picked up the empty beer bottle on the table and threw it at Ning Shi!
Bang! Crash!
The beer bottle smashed onto Ning Shi's head and shattered all over the ground.
Ning Shi was completely unharmed. He twisted his neck and punched the tall and thin man's stomach. The thin and tall man immediately bent his body like a cooked shrimp and fell to the ground, gasping for cold air.
The other hooligans saw this and rushed over together. Ning Shi did not hold back and knocked them all down in just a few moves.
The surrounding customers were stunned.
"This handsome guy is a martial arts expert, right? He's too awesome. He single-handedly defeated more than ten people."
"Yes, he knows iron head martial arts. Just now, when the bottle hit his head, he didn't bleed at all."
"So handsome and so fierce. If I had such a boyfriend, I would feel so safe!"
"Young man, Auntie has two buildings at home. Do you still want to fight?"
Seeing the fat lady in heavy makeup in front of him, the corner of Ning Shi's mouth twitched. He paid the money and left.
Ten minutes later, the police arrived at the scene. After asking the boss about the incident, they brought all the hooligans back.
Back at home, Ning Shi took a shower and threw his clothes into the washing machine. He watched a variety show for a while before falling into a deep sleep.
The next morning, just as Ning Shi was about to enter the game, the doorbell at home rang.
He opened the door and saw an extremely capable beauty in a black uniform standing at the door.
Ning Shi's pupils constricted. He had seen this black uniform before. Two days ago, the officials who were at Yanyu Private Kitchen to capture the awakener were wearing this uniform.
"Hello, Ning Shi, right? I'm a member of the Yunmeng Kingdom's Special Affairs Exchange Bureau. My name Is Yun Moxiang."
The woman had a smile on her face. She looked like a spring breeze, but there was a sense of pride deep in her bones. The way she looked at Ning Shi was filled with a sense of condescension.
Ning Shi remained calm. "Miss Yun, why are you looking for me? Come in and talk."
"Take a seat. I live alone in this house. It's a bit messy."
Ning Shi took out a bottle of Sprite from the fridge and placed it on the table.
Yun Moxiang walked into the room and sized up the environment of the bachelor apartment. She sat elegantly on the sofa, her long legs wrapped in black stockings leaning to one side.
"Ning Shi, a local of Donglin city. He was mischievous since he was young and likes to play pranks. He has excellent grades and was ranked 21st in the entire city in his high school entrance examination. He got into Donglin No. 1 High School and scored 655 points. He entered the computer science department of Donglin University in the city. After graduating, he worked for five years at the large Internet giant, Longxing Group. The morning before yesterday, he tendered his resignation."
"Currently, he has a company under his name, Donglin One Cup Five-grain Juice Food Co. Ltd., which he co-founded with his childhood friends, Yang Yunzhi and Chen Wei."
"His father, Ning Tao, is the vice president of Donglin Bank Wucheng district branch, and his mother, Wang Yan, is the boss of Donglin Jincheng Trading Co. Ltd., specializing in fabric sales."
Yun Moxiang unhurriedly told Ning Shi all the information about him. This was a silent warning and was also putting pressure on Ning Shi.
Ning Shi did not fall for this, he said lightly.
"Miss Yun, what is your purpose? Just tell me directly. This is the era of data. This information is not a secret."
Yun Moxiang changed her sitting posture and pressed her right leg on her left leg, revealing her sexy ankle and red high heels.
"The Special Affairs Exchange Bureau is the official special department of the Yunmeng Kingdom. It is responsible for the registration, training, recruitment of awakeners."
"We retrieved the surveillance footage of you at Yanyu Private Kitchen when we were arresting the criminal the day before yesterday. We have determined that your memory has not been erased by the bewitching crystal."
"Only the awakener can fight against the bewitching crystal."
"Originally, I would only come to look for you in a few days. Given your heroic action last night, I had no choice but to appear in advance."
Ning Shi did not deny the authorities' suspicion that he was an awakener.
He asked, "I injured more than a dozen hooligans yesterday. Do you think I'm dangerous because of that?"
"Your actions were done in the name of justice. I appreciate it. However, according to the regulations of the awakeners, unless one's rights are violated, an awakener cannot intentionally attack an ordinary person."
"I didn't do it on purpose."
"That's why I'm the one who came to see you, not someone from the Investigation Department."
Yun Moxiang picked up the Sprite on the table, opened the bottle cap and took a sip. Then she continued, "According to the procedure, I need to verify your ability and confirm your identity as an awakener."
Ning Shi didn't resist. He needed an awakener identity to hide the secret of his avatar in the game.
"My ability is very simple. It's just that my strength has increased and my body has become stronger."
Ning Shi raised the desk with one hand and demonstrated it.
"It's a strength-type ability." A hint of disappointment flashed across Yun Moxiang's eyes. She handed Ning Shi a piece of paper, "There's a web address and an account number on this. You can log in on your computer and check up on the general knowledge and regulations of awakeners."
Yun Moxiang finished the Sprite in one gulp and stood up. "Your file will be registered at the exchange bureau. If you don't want to be chased by the Investigation Department, don't bring trouble on yourself.".
"You're unlucky. In the past, the state would give you a monthly welfare payment of 10,000 yuan after you registered as an awakener. However, there have been some changes recently. Awakeners are no longer rare and your welfare is gone."
After saying that, Yun Moxiang had already walked out of the door. Ning Shi didn't say anything and let Yun Moxiang leave.
For the time being, he didn't want to have too much interaction with the authorities.
Ning Shi could feel that after Yun Moxiang confirmed that he had a strength-type special ability, her expression was disappointed and her attitude had also become much more distant.
He logged into the website that Yun Moxiang had given him, the Yunmeng Kingdom's awakener exchange forum.
Ning Shi understood the information about the awakener and also the reason behind Yun Moxiang's change in attitude.
The awakener was the collective name for extraordinary individuals who had awakened their special abilities in the Yunmeng Kingdom. There were many types of special abilities and their potential for development was naturally different as well.
Generally speaking, elemental-type, spiritual-type and other special abilities had the greatest potential for development, while strength-type had the lowest potential.
According to the information on the forum, the person with the strongest strength was called Anderson. He was a citizen of the Black Bear Country and was currently only a Tier 3 awakener.
Strength-type was the lowest level among awakeners.
Ning Shi guessed that Yun Moxiang had originally planned to invite him to join the official organization. After seeing that he was a strength-type awakener, she gave up on this idea.
That would be for the best. Not only would he have the cover of an awakener, but he would also be an inconspicuous strength-type awakener. There wouldn't be too much trouble.
Perfect.
