===========
'What a productive day,' I thought to myself, impressed by the number of skill points I had acquired.
In this mission, I had gained more experience and skill points than I did during the entire hotel incident.
And if you ask me, this job was significantly simpler and much safer, primarily due to my broader skill set and the element of surprise I could bring into play.
My system enables me to accumulate experience points (EXP) by observing events through my eyes that the system deems worthy of points. Before, I had to actively observe to earn EXP, but thanks to Mind-Link, I could effortlessly collect EXP from all those kills without ever putting myself in harm's way.
It was kind of like playing a video game where I could send my characters on daring missions, knowing that I didn't have to stress about any "Game Over" screen.
'It works even better than I expected. My plan worked perfectly.'
By manipulating the head cook, I infiltrated the gang headquarters under the guise of a new kitchen worker.
I spent the entire morning serving food to everyone, subtly gaining control over them one by one. After a few hours, I had 80% of the gang under my control, and I was able to leave without a hitch.
The attendance of those high-ranking gang members had been an unexpected bonus. They arrived late to the meeting and rushed up to the conference room, forcing me to improvise. Fortunately, I had brought some poison with me, the same one my uncle had used. There was still some left, so I diluted it to ensure the effects wouldn't become evident too quickly.
For the next part of my plan, instead of making them kill each other, I ensured that some of them remained unaffected by my abilities. I made my controlled gang members turned on them. It was a good thing that I didn't need to maintain direct control all the time; I simply issued a single command, and chaos and death followed.
I did take full control of one person, specifically a strong-looking gangster with somehow impressive stats.
As anticipated, my combat skills had already exceeded those of an ordinary human. The bodyguard, acknowledging that I outmatched him both in technique and reaction time, was left with no choice but to resort to using a gun to eliminate my puppet.
And that was only a glimpse of my power with my current limited stats in the gangster body. I began to doubt whether even a world boxing heavy weight champion could match me in a fight.
Now, I have another set of new points to allocate. With all my passive abilities and experience, I already had a clear plan in mind for where to distribute them.
[ Mind Power —> 1.9 —> 2.5 ]
[ Mind Power —> 2.5 —> 3.5 ]
[ Mind Power —> 3.5 —> 4.1 ]
I gradually increased my Mind Power, taking precautions to avoid any heavy side effects.
I experienced only minor headaches. However, an intriguing thing occurred: my vision became clearer, and the previously erratic blue aura in my field of vision stabilized. I could now control it with just a simple thought.
Instinctively, I found that I could manipulate the aura enveloping my body, summoning a pair of translucent blue hands that allowed me to lift objects . These auras were invisible to the naked eye, but I could see and control them, unlocking a fascinating new dimension of my abilities.
However, lifting small objects inside the car hardly pushed the boundaries of my abilities.
With my mind, I concentrated my gaze on the scattered garbage in the alleyway. Using only a small amount of Mind Power, I effortlessly manipulated the big garbage container as if it was an extension of my body
"I guess I should take my telekinetic talents to a more secretive place," I let out a laugh, realizing that controlling garbage in an alley was hardly the glamorous test of my powers that I had in mind.
I was curious about the extent of my maximum lifting capacity, how much Mind Power I would consume when using it and whether I could create barriers to deflect bullets. This knowledge would not only enhance my understanding of my abilities but could also make me more flexible against any threats.
My biggest worry after all, was biting the dust before I could squeeze every last drop of potential from this system. Picture this: me, armed with a system, and still managing to kick the bucket. What a disappointment I would be!
Now that everything was settled, the next step in my plan was to upgrade my skills.
'Damn, having triple-digit skill points makes me feel like a rich kid !' I chuckled to myself, gazing at the numbers and feeling slightly lightheaded. That's 102, for crying out loud.
Gone are the days when I was content with single-digit skill points, acting like a total broke peasant. Now, my standards have been completely twisted by this skill point inflation.
"Upgrade Intense Quick Learning to level 21" I commanded like a boss.
[Intense Quick Learning to level 20 --> Intense Quick Learning Level 21]
[Passive Learning : 500 % ]
[Active Learning 2000%]
<Level up effect>
[Passive Learning +10%]
[Active Learning +50%]
"I knew it," I mumbled, I anticipated some kind of adjustment after upgrading Intense Quick Learning beyond 20, and my hunch was correct.
The returns were now halved, yielding only 50% compared to the previous 100%, but even so, 50% was still acceptable.
[Intense Quick Learning to level 21 --> Intense Quick Learning Level 30]
[Passive Learning : 600 % ]
[Active Learning 2500%]
"At this rate, I'll be able to learn almost anything instantly once my skill level reach 100"
