Wandering America: My kill threshold is far ahead

Forget it, I won't waste this brain cell. I'll talk about it later.

Skill enhancement is obviously useful; it can upgrade skills, reduce cooldowns, increase duration, and even add traits.

The previous items are easy to understand, but this "trait" is a bit of a riddle.

However, based on normal logic, it must be a permanent gain affix.

Taking the American-style iaido as an example, the following effects may occur.

[Never Misses]: When activating American-style Iaijutsu, the hit rate is increased by 30%.

Of course, if you're really daring, there's this one.

[Bullet Time]: Automatically slows down the flow of time when shot.

It's not impossible for something sinister to happen.

【Nine out of ten shots miss】: The hit rate of the first nine shots is reduced by 99.999%, and the tenth shot is 100% accurate.

Damn! Don't go too far, buddy. But those last two traits don't seem like something a two-star upgrade could provide.

Finally, let's turn our attention to the third skill.

It's an amazing experience, with very detailed skill descriptions. Basically, it gives you a chance to experience the joy of being a max-star player.

But if it's just for the experience, that would be too foolish, as it won't permanently improve your strength.

Therefore, Ma Jieke's first reaction was to link up five-star missions.

For example, there was a mission where you could drive across Highway 1. You could simply spend money to rent a high-performance car and then get the maxed-out [Car Driving] skill.

And those kinds of free climbing buildings? With my maxed-out [Rock Climbing Master] skill, I could easily do that.

The same goes for skydiving. You said it's a full skill set plus free choice, so surely there's an option like "Skydiving Expert".

With that in mind, Ma Jie turned his attention to today's challenge.

[Challenge Mission: Infiltrate the IAA building using a false identity and remain undetected for at least 90 minutes] Value: ★★★★★

Impersonating someone, infiltrating... it's hard not to think of hackers in this.

Although it's uncertain whether hacking counts as a profession, the skill set previously included "hacking," so it's definitely a viable option.

So the question is, just how powerful is a so-called max-level "hacker"?

Is he on par with the world's top hackers, or are these top hackers also helpless against a fully-level hacker?

After all, that's the IAA's security system. If I remember correctly, their total budget exceeded $150 billion a decade ago.

Doubling it now wouldn't be unreasonable, would it? Throwing out 30 billion US dollars, and using 10% for cybersecurity wouldn't be excessive, would it?

A defense system costing $30 billion is not something that can be easily breached.

But Jack Ma is a man with dreams; the world is so big, he wants to see it.

The worst outcome is simply wasting a two-star skill, but if it succeeds, you'll get a five-star reward.

Now I have a skill to make money steadily, but my ability to protect myself is still lacking. If I could get a life-saving skill, that would be the best.

I'm going to gamble! I'll take a chance, and maybe a bicycle will turn into a motorcycle! I'll gamble, and maybe a motorcycle will turn into a Land Rover!

To avoid wasting time, we first took a taxi to the northwestern part of the city.

As the taxi entered the overpass, a gray-white skyscraper made primarily of concrete and glass could be seen from a distance.

On the top wall of the building, the three huge solid letters IAA can be clearly seen. Not far away is another building where the FIB headquarters is located.

These two departments can be called the twin pillars of the empire, one for external affairs and the other for internal affairs, controlling countless top-secret intelligence.

In particular, the IAA's specific responsibilities include espionage, electronic reconnaissance, satellite surveillance, overseas black operations, subversion of hostile regimes, and support for close allies.

This skyscraper in Los Santos has taken protective measures to the extreme.

The exterior walls are made of special glass, which can effectively prevent external reconnaissance equipment from reading information on the internal computer screen and block infrared rays and other detection methods.

In sensitive work areas, even when using a digital camera, photos will appear blank due to interference with the equipment, preventing the leakage of confidential information.

The ventilation ducts are equipped with horizontal filters to prevent intruders from sneaking in, and even rats have difficulty passing through.

In addition, the building uses an independent communication system, and external signals are immediately blocked once they enter.

The outer perimeter of the wall is also covered with a dense array of infrared sensors, which will trigger an alarm if any abnormal movement occurs.

Finally, there is a secure incinerator, used to completely destroy sensitive documents and prevent data recovery.

You could say that they've thought of things you've thought of, and even things you haven't thought of.

You think you can just move a ladder and get in? Don't be ridiculous. Verifying the identity of a stranger is much more complicated than verifying the identity of an insider.

As a veteran player with multiple playthroughs, MaJack is extremely familiar with the surrounding environment.

I randomly found a relatively secluded spot and selected the "Super God Experience".

A vast database of skills for all professions was immediately displayed on the AR virtual panel.

I took a quick look, and it's practically a sea of ​​skills.

If you want, you can simultaneously transform yourself into any of the following identities: [banker], [race car driver], [football star], [astronaut], [nuclear submarine designer], etc.

To put it bluntly, the whole Earth is your backyard. Whatever kind of life you want to experience, all you need to do is acquire the relevant professional skills. It's that straightforward.

After looking for a while, I was surprised to find bizarre professions like "male lead in adult films," "sperm donor," and "fart smeller."

Since there wasn't enough time to browse through each item, I directly used the search bar function to enter keywords.

Sure enough, the message "[Hacker Intrusion MAX]" immediately came into view.

[Do you wish to acquire this class for a godlike experience? Please confirm]

Slightly move your eyes, and the light spot will focus on the confirmation option to engage in human-computer interaction.

[Loading data, please wait...]

[The skill level for this profession is detected to be too high, which may cause excessive information flow to the brain. Would you like to enable the auxiliary application mode?]

Based on the principle of "listen to advice and you'll get a full meal," Ma Jieke chose to activate the auxiliary mode.

The screen flashed and transformed into a data matrix composed of countless green numbers 0 and 1.

A few seconds later, clear and concise information prompts appeared before my eyes.

[Initial setup in progress...]

Downloading a professional application...

The penetration testing framework is already installed.

[Network scanning tool is already included]

[Wireless network sniffer is now included]

[Unzipping the custom model data package...]

[Decompression failed]

[The personal device detected is too old. Should we send a digital ghost to explore the domain?]

There's no need to hesitate, just follow the instructions.

The light screen changed again, displaying a complete map of Los Angeles, with red dots of varying sizes constantly lighting up as markers.

Multiple remote servers detected; intelligent filtering in progress.

[The best option has been matched. Please launch a network hijacking against the following targets according to your needs.]
