Global Games: My Skills Can Be Upgraded Infinitely

"thump!"

Covered in mud, Mo Lan returned to her bedroom.

He felt a huge weight lifted off his shoulders and collapsed onto the floor, utterly exhausted. He had never felt his heart beating so fast.

"It's still safest at home..."

"My profile panel seems to have been updated. Let me take a look."

I casually opened my personal panel.

[Real Name: Mo Lan]

Danger Level: 1.5 (A mortal with a deadly weapon)

[Strength: Rank B (Extraordinary)]

Speed: B-level

[Physical Condition: Grade B]

[Mental Rank: B]

[Charm: A-level]

[Note: Panel data is for player reference, analysis, and debate only. Players should not use it to inflate their own confidence or apply it to actual gameplay; otherwise, the game will not be held responsible.]

[Skill: Discharge - Rank F.]

Bloodline: None.

[Items: E-rank card pack, the best knife in the village x1.]

"Level E root cause: 30%"

"Upgrade the F-rank skill 'Discharge'? This will consume 10% of E-rank Origin Power."

"Yes."

Mo Lan answered in her mind.

The next second, he saw a lot of black mist overflowing from his body, swirling and circling around, and finally returning to his body.

"Evolution, transformation, eternity!"

"EEE! Evolution!"

A flash of light appeared, and at the same time, his system panel was refreshed.

[Skill: Flash Energy - Rank E]

[Flash Energy: Possesses the general characteristics of lower-tier electric-type skills, and can temporarily gain boosts to various attributes by absorbing electricity.]

"E-Rank Origin Power: 20%"

Mo Lan was overjoyed.

"This upgrade is even more powerful than I imagined. It actually possesses the characteristics of a lower-level skill. No wonder this talent is called Evolution."

He was initially worried that upgrading his skills would lead to neglecting other aspects, resulting in excessive mana consumption and making it unusable for him.

But now it seems I was overthinking it.

He then took out the reward for completing the game of fate: an E-grade random card pack from which he could draw skill cards, bloodline cards, and equipment cards.

Mo Lan opened the card pack, as if drawing cards, and looked at the lines of text that gradually became clearer on the card surface.

[Game of Fate: You have obtained the E-rank skill card "Ripple Breathing Technique (Modified)".]

[Ripple Breathing Technique: A product of the infinite, unknown universe, summarized by the Game of Fate. After adjustments and reforms, although its destructive power has been reduced, it possesses greater universality.]

[Description: After learning the Ripple Breathing Technique, your stats will be boosted during its use.]

"study."

Mo Lan exerted force, and the card shattered, turning into golden light that quickly flowed into his body.

[You have acquired the E-rank skill – Ripple Breathing Technique (Modified).]

In just a moment, Mo Lan had mastered the basic theory and usage of this skill.

By controlling breathing, the body's blood and nerve cells are stimulated, thereby unleashing powerful life energy.

The downside is that it cannot be used when not breathing.

"Are they all burst-type skills? That's interesting."

Mo Lan felt like a potato mine buried in the ground.

If anyone thinks he's easy to bully and tries to take advantage of him, he'll fight them to the death in no time.

Temporarily suppressing her excitement, Mo Lan went back to the bathroom to take a shower and then calculated the time.

Time in the instance is synchronized with the main world.

He took a can of Coke from the refrigerator, went to the balcony, and looked at the gradually rising dawn.

Mo Lan opened a can of cola, tilted her head back and took a sip, feeling that life was without regrets.

He knew clearly that after this night, he was probably drifting further and further away from his peaceful life.

"Ugh."

Mo Lan sighed softly, staring absently at the cola in her hand.

The boy's black hair swayed gently in the morning breeze, a wisp of blue electricity flashed briefly, then vanished.

*****

Tianhe Rongdu.

This is the economic center of the Eastern Continent, home to the Tianhe branch of the Giant God Group and the headquarters of the Kyushu Group.

"Han Jiang, you performed exceptionally well in this instance, providing very effective information. In accordance with company regulations, you are promoted."

"The company has prepared a corresponding promotion reward for you. You can collect it yourself at the security department."

"Thank you, Minister!"

Click!

The automatic door opens.

Wearing a camouflage quick-drying training uniform, Han Jiang, who had just finished reporting intelligence to the captain, walked out of the office.

He arrived at the company's security building, underwent system verification, and then obtained a complete set of player equipment from the armory.

Holding a specially customized mobile phone, I completed the ID authentication.

Screen flickering:

[Giant God Corporation: You have unlocked all level 2 (E-rank) dungeon information. Please adhere to confidentiality and do not disclose it to any third party.]

Although the game of fate restricts the company from directly providing employees with skills and lineage.

But in terms of equipment and intelligence, it's absolutely top-of-the-line for its class.

In dungeon games where matching is based on similarity, it is precisely these two points that give Han Jiang and his team an absolute advantage in dungeons.

Lone wolves who can take on a hundred enemies are a minority.

The vast majority of them are rats and criminals who can't even get into the company.

at the same time.

In the personnel department's database of Giant God Corporation, a player's information named Mo Lan was simultaneously upgraded to the priority level.

Combat capability: Good.

Mindset: Excellent.

Potential: Good.

Background: Excellent.

Recommended by: Han Jiang.

Note: This is a routine recruitment; candidates may be trained as core members.

Not only did Giant God Company collect information about Mo Lan's debut as a newcomer, but Kyushu Group and the Special Affairs Bureau also collected the information.

The Kyushu Group noted that he would strive to recruit him with favorable conditions and could be trained as a senior member.

The Special Affairs Bureau noted: "Excellent temperament, clean background, further observation required, routine recruitment."

Being a gamer is a risky profession; many people die every day due to the unpredictable threats posed by the game.

Therefore, a player with potential, a good mindset, and a clean background will definitely be recruited by various factions.

It is precisely these continuous streams of players that support their enormous expenditure and exploration of the game of destiny.

Rongdu Jiuzhou Group R&D Department, Villa Area:

After returning from the dungeon and taking a shower, Jiang Yu went to the study in the villa, still wearing her pajamas.

She sat down on a chair by the window, wiping the fog off her new glasses as she drifted off into thought.

"Jiang Yu, we're all here. Congratulations on becoming a player. It seems we're one step closer to the answer to the truth."

Suddenly a voice came from the computer on the table.

"Okay, I understand." Jiang Yu looked up and responded, put on her glasses, went to the computer, and participated in the organization meeting.

This is a very secretive international organization to ordinary people.

They did not act out of personal desires, but instead dedicated themselves to researching and deducing the higher-dimensional aspects of the game of fate, seeking truth and answers for humanity.

They call themselves "Alchemy Stars".

It is impossible to know who initially spearheaded the creation of this organization; it is very likely that it has already perished in the game of fate.

Even Jiang Yu didn't know much about this organization, because she was brought in by a friend.

*****

"The breathing technique... is even more effective than I imagined."

Mo Lan, who got up early and went for a morning run using breathing techniques, felt that she had greatly underestimated this skill.

After learning the breathing technique, this skill seemed to become his permanent skill, continuously improving his physical fitness.

If one practices for decades, one will definitely live much longer than the average person.

After his morning run, he went downstairs to the steamed bun shop and ordered meat buns and eggs.

"Uncle, why does business seem a bit slow today?" Mo Lan turned to look at the sparsely populated street, somewhat puzzled.

The old town area nearby has never been demolished, and everyone has been neighbors for over ten years. Their businesses are usually very stable.

"Yes, I was wondering the same thing. It's not usually like this." Uncle Wang, who makes steamed buns, was also puzzled.

Worried that he wouldn't be able to sell them all, he packed a few more buns for Mo Lan: "Come on, you're at the age where you're growing, let me pack you some more, you're so thin."

"Hehe, then I won't be polite."

"Come on, kid, let's go." Uncle Wang patted him on the shoulder.

Mo Lan carried breakfast all the way home.

Suddenly, I was interrupted by a phone call.

He picked up his phone and saw that the caller was Lin Youyou, whose contact name he had saved as His Excellency the President.

"Cough cough."

Clearing her throat, Mo Lan answered the phone and took a bite of her steamed bun:

"Good morning, what can I do for you, Your Excellency?"

"It's so boring at home..." Lin Youyou's voice was a little muffled, clearly she hadn't gotten up yet. "I'll come over to your place to play later~"

Lin Youyou then asked, "Did you watch the news yesterday?"

"without."

Mo Lan ate one steamed bun after another.

On the other end, Lin Youyou, wearing bear pajamas, turned over upon hearing this, leaned closer to the phone, and whispered, "My parents reminded me yesterday to be careful lately."

"Recently, there have been many missing persons cases in Rongdu, all of whom are people living alone."

"Really?" Mo Lan took a sip of sweet hand-ground soy milk and looked at the thin mist gradually rising outside the window.

"It doesn't look very peaceful. Maybe you shouldn't come."

Lin Youyou immediately replied, "I'm afraid you'll die alone at home."

"You're really good at saying auspicious things." Mo Lan was speechless. "Don't worry, if anything happens to anyone, nothing will happen to me."

"But..."

"There's no 'but' about it," Mo Lan said. "It wasn't easy for you to come out, was it? If anything happened outside, your parents would be watching you like crazy."

Lin Youyou was speechless. Her father worked in the military, so her family was very strict, and she was indeed not allowed to go out now.

"Don't worry, I'll take good care of myself, and so will you."

"All right..."

After the call ended.

Mo Lan looked at her personal panel and then began skill training, striving to develop some more uses before the next dungeon.

But as the sun gradually set, a cold wind and heavy white fog suddenly swept over the entire Rongdu.

"This fog is unusually thick."

Mo Lan finished a phase of electrical training, turned around, picked up the remote control, and turned on the TV. Sure enough, there was news on it.

The hosts of Rongdu TV were dressed in formal attire, sitting upright with serious expressions.

"Rongdu Radio and Television Station reminds you that the city is experiencing extremely dense fog, suspected to be caused by an unusual interference from a game of fate. The Rongdu Special Affairs Bureau is currently conducting further investigations to pinpoint the source. Local residents and visitors are requested to remain calm, cooperate with the investigation, and avoid going out unless absolutely necessary. Thank you for your cooperation!"

The television station and the community radio station simultaneously broadcast this unusual phenomenon.

After numerous drills, the residents of Rongdu did not panic excessively. They closed their doors, stored up their food, and went about their business as usual.
