Superman's End Manual

[Cut Ice: I get it, you want to be someone's nanny?]

[Anti-Dog: I need your help. He's a crucial trump card. We can't let his identity be exposed to other players, and even more importantly, we can't let it be revealed within that monster family.]

[Cut Ice: You want to be a nanny yourself, but you also want to drag your buddy down with you?]

[Anti-Dog: Blue Raven will soon launch an investigation into the 'Dice Monster.' Based on my observation, Spider Man has likely left behind quite a few clues. For example, in the photo of the Dice Monster, it is wearing the 'uniform of Huanjing Third Middle School,' which will immediately remind Blue Raven of his son's school. By reviewing the relevant surveillance footage, he will surely be able to find a loophole.]

[Ice Cutting: Is it Huanjing No. 3 Middle School?]

[Anti-Dog: Yes, before Blue Raven takes over that matter, we need to help Spider-Man delete all the school's surveillance footage. Specifically, we need to do this on June 19th and June 20th. He learned his skills on those two days and started using puppets to conduct a two-pronged operation at the school. With Blue Raven's reconnaissance skills, he definitely won't overlook the school's surveillance footage, and footage related to his son will be even more conspicuous.]

[Cai Bing: Oh, then I'll reluctantly help you cut out the surveillance footage from that school from the past two days. I hope your judgment is correct.]

[Anti-dog: Thanks.]

[Cai Bing: It's still hot outside, I'll have to contact you again when I get to the area around Beijing. I'll take a boat tonight to smuggle myself across, I estimate I'll arrive in two days.]

[Anti-dog: Got it. 】

After sending the last message, Fan Quan closed his laptop, leaned back in his chair, and took a deep breath.

Just then, he noticed that the "communication list icon" in the upper right corner of his vision was showing a bubble containing the number 1. He had been so busy escaping from the ninja that he hadn't noticed it.

After hesitating for two seconds, the anti-dog stretched out its finger, clicked the icon, and a prompt panel popped up in front of it.

[Player "Failed Man" has accepted your friend request.]

[Notification: Your friend "Failed Man" has sent you a message.]

[The Failed Man: Rest in peace, you anti-dog. If I'm still alive this time next year, I'll remember to come and offer incense to you.]

[Anti-dog:? 】

Asking for a monthly ticket!

Chapter 72 Skill Special Sales Page, Spider-Sense

The Kopper family home on the night of June 21.

Ke Mingye was the last to step into the house. He leaned against the shoe cabinet to take off his shoes and then noticed a bubble containing the number 1 appearing in the upper right corner of his field of vision, which was the "communication icon".

He raised an eyebrow, clicked the icon with his mind, and a notification message popped up.

[Player "Anti-Dog" has sent you a friend request. Do you want to accept?]

"So it seems he knows I'm Spider-Man..."

Ke Mingye looked at the notification and sighed silently, thinking to himself that it was bad luck to keep a dead person in his friend list, so he should just refuse.

"Is it really necessary, you cultured man? You've risked your life to confirm my identity. I beg you, you'd better die quickly and cleanly. Don't let your second brother drag you away for interrogation and expose my information in the process. Wouldn't that be harming both of you?"

He muttered to himself, temporarily shelved the friend request, and went into the living room.

At this moment, the other siblings were all sitting on the sofa, each doing their own thing. For an ordinary person, going out and coming back would be quite tiring, but everyone in the family is a superhuman; they can walk several kilometers without even breaking a sweat.

Ke Mingye looked around but couldn't find Ke Youqing. He thought to himself, "This guy really can't sit still. Even if there are no criminals, he has to help the old lady find her missing cats and dogs to feel fulfilled, right?"

My mom is still out there fooling around with her group of girlfriends. My dad usually doesn't care much about her. After all, he's always busy with work and doesn't care about family matters, so what right does he have to criticize her?

"Hey bro, don't leave!" Bai Zini picked up a game cartridge from the sofa, turned to him, and asked, "Want to play 'Two-Person Party'?"

"Playing any longer will exhaust me. I'm going back to my room to lie down. You can ask Ziling to keep you company."

With that, Ke Mingye took three steps at a time, skipped over the sofa full of people, went up the stairs to the second floor, and returned to his room.

He locked the door, sprawled out on the bed, and stared blankly at the yellowish ceiling.

"I'm so glad I survived this day. First it was Bai Zini, then the anti-dog, this whole drama is giving me a heart attack..."

"Looks like Second Brother still hasn't come back. He should have already torn the anti-dog to pieces by now. Wasn't he just asking for trouble? If he didn't understand, he should have asked. Why did he have to come here and cause trouble? If he doesn't die, who will?"

Thinking this, Ke Mingye picked up his phone and sent a message to Ke Xiaomo: "Where the hell are you? I'm dying of thirst, where's my Coke?"

Soon, the other party replied: "Don't worry, I'm coming."

Ke Mingye silently looked at the message, without mourning for the anti-dogs for a moment. Instead, he opened the task bar and glanced at the three daily tasks.

Part 1: 4000-meter run (completed)

[II. Use a one-time use item (Completed, reward not claimed) (Reward: 1 attribute point added to "Neural Response")]

[Part 3: Kill a Superhuman (Special Mission, Incomplete)]

He stretched out his finger and gently tapped the second daily task to claim the corresponding reward.

[You have already claimed the reward for Daily Task 2. Your "Neural Reaction" attribute has changed: 9 points → 10 points.]

"This attribute also needs to be improved, otherwise just having great strength is useless. When fighting, you won't be able to react to your opponent's moves and you'll easily be taken down by a control-type ability in one move," he thought.

Ke Mingye yawned, his eyes filled with tired tears, and then opened the skill sales page.

The player currently holds: 8260 coins.

【玩家当前的等级为Lv.7，技能专售页的刷新概率为——E级技能68％；D级技能15％；C级技能12％；B级技能5％；A级技能0％；S级技能0％】

The refresh rate for B-grade skills is getting higher and higher. Ke Mingye wondered, "Does that mean once I reach level 10, there'll be a chance to find A-grade skills on the exclusive sales page?"

He could hardly imagine how powerful an A-level skill would be, since even a B-level skill was powerful enough—if he hadn't unlocked the B-level skill "Deception Puppet," he might have already died in the movie theater.

"But I can't afford it anyway. Even upgrading this thing by just one level costs a fortune."

Ke Mingye lowered his gaze and looked at the skills on the panel.

【①: Personality Dissection (A skill retained from yesterday, already purchased)】

【②: Dream Weaving (E-rank skill) (Enters the dream of a target character, where they can converse or manipulate the dream's environment and progression.)】

"Damn, is this a special skill for charlatans?" Ke Mingye thought. "But what's the point? You can even enter the other person's dream. Why not kill him while he's still sleeping?"

【③: Martyr's Faith (D-level Skill) (Absorbs and stores all damage received by the body within 10 seconds, and an explosion centered on the body is formed after 10 seconds. The user is immune to the damage from this explosion.) (The higher the damage absorbed by the body within 10 seconds, the higher the damage of the subsequent explosion and the wider the coverage area.)】

"It sounds like a double-edged sword... It takes 10 seconds of being hit to trigger the skill. Most people would be dead after being hit for that long, let alone fighting superhumans."

Ke Mingye looked at the skill description and thought to himself.

"But it seems to have a strange effect on the puppet. Anyway, it doesn't matter if it dies. Maybe it will trigger a skill before it dies and die together with the enemy."

【④: Flashbang Coming! (E-Rank Skill): Creates a powerful flash of light centered on the user, with a chance to briefly blind nearby enemies. The user is immune to the flash's effect.】

"This is similar to the skill called 'Lights Out' from yesterday, but it seems a bit more useful," Ke Mingye thought. "Let's skip it for now."

【⑤: Gravity Control (D-level skill) (Gains the ability to alter the gravity acting on a target for a short period of time, causing the target to float or fall, but the target must be within five meters of the player)】

"It looks pretty good. It can be used for offense or defense, and it can also be used on yourself. It's a pity that it's a D-level skill, and the price will be at least 10000 mall coins. In the early stages, instead of saving up to buy a D-level skill, it's more practical and flexible to use the same amount of money to get two E-level skills."

Thinking this, Ke Mingye swiped the exclusive sales page and looked down at the skills.

【⑥: Frost Hands (Rank E Skill) (Creates a controllable low-temperature field around the hands, which can be used to freeze small objects or create ice weapons.)】

"This skill sounds like it's pretty cost-effective, but it would be great if it could be cast with one hand. Casting it with both hands would freeze my 'web shooter', so I think we should just forget about it."

Ke Mingye thought for two seconds and mentally complained.

【⑦: Life Link (D-level skill) (Establishes a link with another creature, and the damage taken by the player will be evenly distributed between the two linked creatures for a short period of time)

(Note 1: The damage distributed to the other party will not exceed the maximum damage the other party can withstand, that is, it will not reach the level of "lethal damage")

(Note 2: Similarly, any harm suffered by the other party from external sources will also be shared with you through the "life link".)

"What a great thing!" Ke Mingye's eyes lit up as he praised in his heart. "Using it on a doll is just as cunning, or rather, it's cunning to the extreme. It can save people, and it can also harm them."

【⑧: "Beep beep beep, I'm coming!" (Level E skill) (Creates a mouse to eavesdrop on information. The player can control the mouse's movements and share the mouse's vision and hearing.)】

"It's unnecessary for me. After all, I already have a doll, and it would be impolite to keep another mouse," Ke Mingye thought.

【⑨: Shadow Step (E-rank skill) (When activated, for 10 seconds, every movement will create an afterimage behind you, making it difficult for enemies to determine your true location.)】

"All that fancy stuff, superheroes aren't that easy to fool."

【⑩: Spider Sense (Rank B Skill) (This is an active skill. After use, you will gain spider-like sensory abilities for ten minutes. You can use spider sense to "predict danger" and "evade tracking," and thereby gain "combat intuition" and "spatial awareness," while greatly enhancing "nervous reflexes")】

"What is this thing? Am I seeing things?"

Upon seeing the skill name, Ke Mingye subconsciously tilted his head and rubbed his eyes.

He blinked to confirm that the skill name was correct.

"Holy crap, is this really not tailor-made for me? Now I'm truly 'Spider-Man'. The only thing missing is a genetic mutation. Maybe I'll get bitten on the back of my hand by a spider when I visit the lab tomorrow... Wait a minute, why is this an active skill? A low-end version of Spider-Sense, huh? If it had a passive skill, wouldn't I be invincible?"

Thinking of this, he realized that he hadn't checked his skill level yet, so he looked down and his excitement immediately subsided.

"It's alright then. It turns out I was the one who was out of my league. I hope we'll meet again someday."

After flipping through today's special sales page, Ke Mingye thought that the E-level skills in this issue were pretty useless, so he might as well keep a D-level skill until tomorrow. After completing a series of tasks tomorrow, he should have enough money to buy a D-level skill.

So he sat on the bed in silence for a while, then mentally clicked the icon in the upper right corner to accept the friend request from the anti-dog.

[The Failed Man: Rest in peace, you anti-dog. If I'm still alive this time next year, I'll remember to come and offer incense to you.]

[Anti-dog:? 】

[The Failed Man: The system is so thoughtful! It even creates a similar AI to our deceased friends to talk to us. It's like playing a dating sim game like "360 Days with the Dead".]

[Anti-dog: You're starting to have a bit of delusions.]
