[Successfully defeated an opponent…]
[Ability cards attained.]
[For defeating an opponent, you are rewarded with ten versatile points.]
[The shop is automatically opened.]
There is a shopping feature? Bray saw a new tab appear in his line of sight, it's name was Shop. What can I buy in the shop? Bray was curious, but he didn't forget where he was currently.
He turned to look at his opponent with a hint of pity. He truly didn't want to do this to his opponent, it wasn't his fault, he just needed the skill that badly. Without delaying, he pretended as though he was helping his opponent get up while he picked the ability cards that were around.
"You… you! What sort of human are you?" Gahorl felt extremely wronged, unfortunately, there was nothing he could do about it as the pain was so much on him.
He grunted and slowly walked away while limping. Bray shook his head in pity, his gaze subconsciously turned to the camera that was placed at a distance, his gaze didn't linger there for too long, only seeming as though it were a fleeting glance.
Bray sighed and suppressed his excitement. He walked down to his prison cell, and as soon as he reached the cell door, the guard that was waiting for him and other members of his cell once again shackled him before letting him step in.
Bray didn't mind, he could just ask the system to unshackle him at any time. Right now, what was on his mind was to check out the ability skill cards, the shop, and to begin formulating a plan to break out of this world prison.
…
At this moment, Bray was crawled up on his bed. If one looked at him, ignoring the environment around which he was staying, they would think he was a free man like everyone else because he just laid on his bed while staring up.
Looking at the screen in front of him, Bray thought of the ability skill card suggestion. Three cards appeared in front of him, he glanced at one of them, causing the relevant information about it to appear in his mind.
[Ability card (attribute enhancement): an ability card that enhances one's attributes.]
Enhances one's attributes? Bray was stunned for a moment. The memory of the free attributes appeared in his mind. Could they have a similar effect? system, how do I absorb this skill card and enhance my attribute?
A reply came almost immediately.
[Ability and skill cards can be absorbed with a thought.]
A thought? Bray pondered for a few seconds before his eyes lit up. Right, a thought! Just like how I control the system! He immediately thought of activating the skill card.
Whoosh!
Before Bray could react, the ability card disappeared from his line of sight, and a cool sensation washed over him the next moment, causing him to feel relaxed once again. He suddenly felt his muscles tightening, and along with it came an increase in strength, which Bray felt.
I am getting stronger!
[New stats]
[Strength - 35.]
[Agility - 43.]
[Physique - 38.]
…
Bray saw multiple pieces of information appear in his stats once again. He was surprised that his strength would increase by that much with just an ability card, if I collect a couple or even a dozen more, then I will be even stronger than some B-grade talents.
Bray felt a surge of excitement coming to this line of thought, he couldn't wait for the time when his ability level would increase by that much. If this continues, it will not be long before I can complete the z-level mission.
Bray turned his gaze to the second ability card that was there, and immediately, information about this new skill card appeared in his mind. The card this time around was blue, while the previous card was red.
[Ability card (free attributes): an ability card that gives free attributes.]
The explanation was simple and short, but it was exactly these simple words that caused Bray to feel a surge of excitement, he knew that this was something that would be needed by him along the long run.
On the free attributes card was the number 50, he already knew what that meant—he had fifty free attributes! If he were to add them all to strength, his strength would be increased to fifty!
It's best if I save this for the future, if I add all to strength and I need agility, it would be quite difficult to get through such a situation. Bray immediately asked the system for a suggestion.
System, is there a way I can store the free attributes ability card so that I can use it in the near future in case of emergencies?
[Storage space can be bought in the shop, it can store all living and non-living things, a time-pause feature is also available in the storage space.]
Seeing the line of information, Bray couldn't help but seethe in joy and excitement. His gaze abruptly turned to the third and final skill card, this time it was purple in color, the combination of blue and red.
He took a deep breath and absorbed the skill card as relevant information about it appeared in his mind.
[Skill card: a card obtained when an opponent is defeated or killed that grants the ability of the defeated opponent to you.]
Bray already knew the explanation of the skill card, so he only glanced at it once before absorbing the skill card in the same manner he did for the others.
Swoosh!
The skill card vanished, and the next moment, Bray felt a warm, fiery sensation on him, it was as though ants were crawling all over his skin while he was soaked in a bath of ice-cold water, feeling heat as well as cold at the same time.
What is this feeling? Is this the feeling of gaining an ability? Damn, why is it so painful? Bray felt immense pain all over his body, if he knew that he was going to experience this while gaining an ability, he would never have dared to absorb the skill card.
When will it end? Bray felt that his thoughts were becoming weak as his body was constantly numbed by the pain he was feeling. After what seemed like eternity, the pain finally subsided, and along with the decrease in pain came a new line of information.
[Congratulations! You have gained an ability, you are rewarded with...]
