My avatar is becoming the final boss

[There is 1 unused skill point left. Do you want to continue developing the skill tree? ]

Ji Minghuan leaned against the headboard, tilted his head, and glanced at the newly unlocked skills on the "Hidden" branch.

[Branch 1 (Hidden): Binding Band Sense (Learned) → Binding Band Mantra (Learned) → Binding Band Color Change (To be learned, requires "1" skill point to unlock) → Unknown → Unknown]

Lift your finger and tap the newly unlocked skill, and the details panel will pop up.

[Restraint Belt Color Change: Makes your restraint belt invisible. After wrapping yourself in the restraint belt, you will become invisible. (If you encounter a being with higher attributes than you, you will likely be noticed if you get close enough.)]

Ji Minghuan looked at the skill description and thought, "Not bad, suitable for tracking people... But didn't I add too many skills to this branch? It seems a bit biased."

Of the skill tree that appeared before him at this moment, only the "Hidden" branch had grown particularly long, while the "Crazy" and "Vicious" branches were drooping sickly, as if they would wither at any time.

"But for now, this is the only way to develop... My combat-based skills are useless: I can't defeat the strong ones, and I can easily beat the weak ones."

Ji Minghuan scratched his hair, thinking expressionlessly, "Let's learn it. There's no better option for now."

Lift your finger and press and hold the skill icon. The icon turns from bright to dark, emitting a red and black glow with the true name.

[1 skill point has been consumed to successfully acquire the skill "Restraint Color Change" from the "Hidden" branch.]

[The next skill of the "Hidden" branch has been opened for learning.]

Ji Minghuan glanced at the newly unlocked skills in the "Hidden" system and muttered, "This branch of skills is just one after another. I can't stop."

[Band Trap: Lays a trap made of bands on the spot. Once an enemy enters the trap, their legs will be immediately bound and entangled. (Band traps released by this skill inherit the effects of Band Sense and Band Detection.)]

"This description looks very sinister. I'm so tempted... but unfortunately, I've already used up all my skill points."

Seeing that there was no room for further operation, he called up the "Character Development System" panel.

[This character's exclusive training system is the "Social Superstar System."]

The core rule of the "Social Superstar System" is: Whenever you establish cooperative relationships with more extraordinary humans, you can receive rewards through the "Exclusive Cultivation System."

[Current progress: Training Task 1: Establish a friendly cooperative relationship with 1 psychic (regardless of pro or con) (Reward: 1 attribute point)]

[Completed training task 1, reward: 1 attribute point.]

[Cultivation Mission 2 has appeared: Establish cooperative relationships with a total of 3 superhumans (Current progress: 1/3, the superhuman with whom cooperative relationships have been established is: the Outlander "Blue Arc").]

Ji Minghuan raised an eyebrow, his eyes bright in the darkness. "By the way, does collaborating with harmless-level psychics count as cooperation? I could find hundreds of collaborators a day, wouldn't that mean I could max out my attributes?"

He thought, "Let's experiment. It won't take long. I can just treat it as a sleep aid before bed and look for harmless-level psychics nearby. Although it's dangerous to go out right now, after all, my dad and brother are at home."

Ji Minghuan opened his personal panel and added the attribute points rewarded from the training task to "Strength".

[The "Strength" attribute of the first game character "Black Pupa" has changed from C+ to C++]

He fished out the phone from under his pillow and logged into the Outlander official website. He then used his restraints to pull out a notebook and a ballpoint pen from the bedside table. He tore a page from the top and wrote a line of words with the pen:

——"Don't disturb me while I'm sleeping, otherwise I will run away from home with my sister."

I have to say that the restraints are very flexible in doing this kind of delicate work, and the handwriting is even neater than Ji Minghuan's.

He used the restraints to pull out a bottle of glue from the drawer, tightened the restraints and held the glue in his hand, then got down from the bed, turned the doorknob, walked out of the room, stood in the corridor, and glued the page with the words on it to the door with glue.

Then he returned to his room, closed the door, and locked it. "Okay, now I have some free time."

Based on his understanding of Gu Qiye, no matter what Gu Qiye wanted to talk to him about later, after seeing the line of words posted on the door, he would definitely not disturb Ji Minghuan's sleep.

Because Gu Qiye still felt guilty about the quarrel with his father in front of his younger siblings. One of his younger sisters had already run away from home, so he naturally didn't want to see his younger brother also get angry and slam the door and leave.

Not to mention the Gu Zhuo case. He has no status in this family and is almost like a prisoner on observation. He should be sleeping peacefully in his room at this time.

Ji Minghuan pressed the restraints against the wooden floor of the room, his senses seeping down like rain.

While peeking at Gu Qiye who was reading in the living room downstairs, he took out a mask and windbreaker from the storage box at the bottom, put them on slowly, pressed the fixed button on the side of the mask's ear, and turned on the built-in voice changer.

Staring at the phone screen, he murmured silently, "Let me see... which are the more famous harmless-level psychics nearby, and pick a lucky one at random."

Basically, the files of every "harmless-level mutant" will be registered on the official website of the Mutants Association, making it convenient for large companies to verify. Only harmless-level mutants are qualified to enter the company and work with ordinary people. In some cases, their special abilities will even shine in the workplace.

At this time, Ji Minghuan was browsing the files of these "harmless-level mutants".

After a moment, his eyes were fixed on one of the archival photos.

"It's you... the bookstore owner, a harmless-level psychic codenamed 'Photo Retriever'."

To be honest, Ji Minghuan was not sure whether his brother on the first floor and his father on the third floor would notice the moment he slipped out of the room through the floor-to-ceiling window.

To be on the safe side, Ji Minghuan wrapped his entire body with restraints like a black mummy, including the mask and windbreaker, leaving only the slits for his eyes exposed.

The next moment, as the effect of the skill he had just learned - [Restraint Belt Color Change] was activated, the black restraint belt gradually changed color, showing an invisible camouflage transparency, and Ji Minghuan, who was wrapped in it, naturally could not be seen.

"It's really useful."

Ji Minghuan curled the corners of his mouth and looked at his transparent body with satisfaction. He maintained his invisible state and took a few tentative steps, blending perfectly with the air, then gently opened the floor-to-ceiling window.

Diverting gravity to the floating restraints, he leaped through the window and into the moonlight.

Five minutes later, in Lijing City, Broly Bookstore.

The orange light spread out flatly, and the store was empty. There would be basically no one visiting the bookstore at this time. It would be better to say that most bookstores would be closed. Because this is a bookstore that also serves as a cafe, it is open so late.

The young boss stopped outside the store and turned the sign on the door from "Open" to "Close".

Then I went back to the store, listened to jazz music, and made the final preparations before closing: tidying up the bookshelves, wiping the tables and radio with towels, and then putting the hardcover books that customers left in the coffee area back into the gaps in the bookshelves.

The coffee machine's prompt sounded, he picked up the cup and poured a cup of hot coffee, then brought the freshly brewed coffee to the counter, and a burst of hot steam carrying fragrance rose up.

He raised the corners of his mouth slightly, took a breath of happy air, and was just about to enjoy the last moment of tranquility before getting off work, when suddenly, a foreign object appeared in the corner of his vision.

The boss was stunned for two seconds, put down the coffee cup, and slowly looked up.

He saw a huge, pitch-black insect pupa hanging upside down from the ceiling, just inches from his head. The strange thing was... it was clearly right above his head, but the boss hadn't seen it at all, as if this black insect pupa could become invisible.
