From the Abyss Invasion to the Blasting Star.

Chapter 39: Reshuffle and Game of Power Structure
That’s right, [Skill Slot Expansion Crystal Core] can increase the number of skill slots of the psychic.

There is no need for much explanation. Just by listening to the name, you can tell how precious this super crystal core is.

According to the official statistics of Daxia on psychics, the average number of initial skill slots upon awakening is 2.15.

In other words, most psychics have only two skill slots, or even only one.

The proportion of people with 3 initial skill slots is less than 18%.

Even fewer, only 4%, have reached 5.

Reaching 5 is extremely rare, with only a one in ten thousand chance.

That’s right, Su Muyu is that lucky guy among millions.

Lu Heng's initial number of skill slots is 3, which is considered to be an upper-middle level among the general public, but is actually considered to be few among the top psychics.

Of course, Lu Heng’s luck when he awakened was all based on his two initial talents.

In terms of rarity, the probability of having dual talents is only one in one hundred thousand.

Moreover, even if a psychic has awakened dual talents, he may have life-related talents or even useless talents.

It is even rarer for both initial talents to be strong.

The number of skill slots a psychic has directly determines how many skills he can master.

With each additional skill slot, one can surpass a large group of psychics of the same level.

Take Lu Heng for example, if he could get a [Skill Slot Expansion Crystal Core], the number of skill slots could be increased from 3 to 4.

Learn one more skill and you can instantly jump from the 18% level to the top of the 5% pyramid.

If used by a top psychic with 5 skill slots, it will become a terrifying existence with 6 skills.

……

Although Lu Heng possesses dual talents, the number of his skill slots is indeed small among the top psychics.

Therefore, if you can get a [Skill Slot Expansion Crystal Core], the improvement will be huge.

"Have you discovered this kind of crystal core?" Lu Heng became interested when he heard the name of this super crystal core.

Su Muyu giggled and began to report her reconnaissance results:
“I saw the silver-haired Lei Jinhao, he was talking to Gong Zhenteng, the chairman of Gong Teng Group.

“They were not having a pleasant conversation and were about to start a quarrel. I managed to get closer to eavesdrop and heard what they were arguing about.

“It turns out that Lei Jinhao and Gong Zhenteng were partners before.

“Gong Zhenteng paid for Lei Jinhao’s team to purchase resources, and Lei Jinhao dealt with the troubles for Gong Teng Group.

“At the beginning, Gong Zhenteng took the initiative, but Lei Jinhao’s team of psychics developed very quickly and seemed to be in control.

“Not long ago, Gong Teng Group obtained a [Skill Slot Expansion Crystal Core]. Lei Jinhao wanted it, but Gong Zhenteng didn’t want to give it to him.

"The two sides started arguing, and from what they were arguing, it seemed that Gong Zhenteng had spent money to support another team of superpowers, which made Lei Jinhao very unhappy.

"In addition, the Gong family also obtained something called [Fighter Essence]. Lei Jinhao also wants this Fighter Essence. This guy has a really big appetite.

"Gong Zhenteng refused to give the [Skill Slot Expansion Crystal Core], but agreed to give the [Fighter Essence], on the condition that Lei Jinhao signed an additional agreement.

"The terms of the agreement were a bit outrageous, and the two of them had a big argument and almost came to a fight."

After listening to it, Lu Heng knew what was going on.

in fact.

This situation is very common in the early stages of the Abyss.

When people with special abilities first appeared, their power was not enough to change the power structure.

Those in power who possess wealth and power have more resources and can train powerful warriors with special abilities.

At this stage, the group that originally stood at the top of the pyramid still holds power.

However, as time goes by, the combat power of the top psychics becomes stronger and stronger, and it will become increasingly difficult for the original superiors to control these top powerhouses with money.

Eventually, the power structure slowly reversed as the top psychics' combat power increased.

Of course, this reversal is also relative. After all, the class that holds wealth and power is more likely to cultivate powerful people with special abilities.

However, money can no longer directly gain power. Money needs to be converted into extraordinary power, and then rely on power to gain power. It seems that this future "Storm Boxing Champion" has gradually developed to the point where he is no longer controlled by his financial backers.

Of course, the chaebols will not sit idly by and wait for death.

Therefore, Gong Zhenteng established a second team of superpowers to counterbalance Lei Jinhao's team.

Of course, Gong Zhenteng’s goal in supporting the second team of superpowers was not to become an enemy of Lei Jinhao.

His purpose was to balance Lei Jinhao's growing ambition and make Lei Jinhao a obedient dog.

In fact.

In the previous life, the Gong family not only supported two teams of superpowers, but also trained the Gong family's own direct line of superpowers.

Gong Chusheng started with an A-level skill [Shadow Clone], and with a huge amount of resources thrown at him, even though he had average talent, he eventually became one of the top-ranked supernatural warriors in the coastal area.

If the situation had developed as it was, the [Skill Slot Expansion Crystal Core] obtained by the Gong family would have been used on Gong Chusheng, the prince of the Gong Teng Group.

However, in this life, Gong Chusheng had already been killed by Lu Heng.

I don't know who the Gong family will give this [Skill Slot Expansion Crystal Core] to.

……

If Lei Jinhao wants this super crystal core, he will definitely have to fight with the Gong family for a while.

It depends on what the two sides finally reach an agreement on.

After Su Muyu reported the intelligence he had gathered, he asked, "Do you want the [Skill Slot Expansion Crystal Core]?"

"That's nonsense. Of course you want it." Lu Heng couldn't help rolling his eyes.

Now that all three skill slots have been used up, I can’t learn any powerful skills even if I get them.

If you can get this super crystal core, the improvement will be huge.

"Then I'll help you find where the Gong family hid the crystal core, okay?" Su Muyu knew how important this super crystal core was to Lu Heng, so she wanted to help find it.

Lu Heng shook his head and said, "The Gong family is not stupid, it's not that easy to find. Besides, we have more important things to do and don't have time to care about this for now. We will come back to look for it after we obtain the first job level."

Moreover, at the current stage, people with special abilities are still far from being able to do whatever they want. Thermal weapons are too powerful, and any armed bodyguard can pose a threat to them.

"Ok."

Su Muyu nodded in agreement and asked, "Okay. And the [Fighter Essence], is it related to the class?"

Lu Heng nodded: "Yes, the fighter is the first class. However, just having the professional essence is not enough. If you want to obtain the class, you have to fight for the essence."

"So difficult..." Su Muyu pursed her lips. Thinking that she would also have to fight in the battle for source energy in the future, she couldn't help but feel a little nervous.

She pointed at the door and said, "Then I will continue to keep an eye on the Gongteng Group."

"Don't worry, now that you're here, just help me." Lu Heng smiled and closed the door of the training room.

Su Muyu pursed her lips and muttered, "What are you doing..."

She still hasn't given up the idea of ​​looking for the super crystal core.

"The most urgent thing is to obtain the first job level first so that he can practice physical skills with me." Lu Heng's thoughts were very clear.

Now, the source essence of the first class has appeared.

There is a high probability that Lei Jinhao will be able to get the Gong family's share of [Fighter Source Essence].

Because in his previous life, the first job rank of this "Storm Boxer" was [Fighter].

In other words, it won’t be long before Lei Jinhao will obtain the combat rank of [Fighter].

Moreover, Lei Jinhao is not Gong Zhenteng’s biological son. If he were a direct descendant of those powerful people or influential forces, they would have to invest even more resources.

Therefore, from now on, combat professions will appear one after another.

There is a huge gap in combat power between ordinary psychics and professionals.

Therefore, Lu Heng must obtain that hidden profession as soon as possible.
