Chapter 26: Mission Accomplished
Finn Lewis quickly swiped his card to pay, leaving his phone number and taking a business card from the shop. He rushed through his words, “You can leave everything here, I don’t know my address yet, but I’ll call you with the details later, and then you deliver it to me. Can you do that?”
“Sir…” The salespeople were halfway through a reply when Finn cut them off with a wave of his hand, “No problem, right? This is my number, so it’s settled.”
As soon as he finished, Finn took off, leaving behind several gaping salespeople. They soon returned to their senses – after all, Finn had already paid. The products were still in the shop, but even without an address, they didn’t see it as a big problem. The money was already in their bank account.
“Who was that guy?” The salespeople whispered amongst themselves.
“Who knows, maybe some down-on-their-luck rich kid? Man, the way he was buying things, it’s like picking up cabbages from the market.” The salespeople were worn out despite the short time spent serving him.
“You’ve been watching too many Korean dramas,” another salesperson giggled,
You may have noticed, despite his ordinary outfit, that watch on his wrist, that was a Breguet. I saw it in a shop nearby before, it’s worth over four million yuan.” Another sharp-eyed salesperson chirped.
“Of course we noticed, why else would we have been recommending clothes for him so enthusiastically?” The others agreed. They had been trained to assess a customer’s purchasing power based on their attire, jewellery, and wristwatches, then provide suitable recommendations to avoid upsetting the customer.
While they continued their discussion about Finn, he was blowing the minds of staff in several more luxury boutiques. By the time he heard Zero announce a mission completion in his mind, he was nearly wiped out.
“Man, I never realized spending money could be so exhausting,” Finn expressed, being close to throwing up, after he’d sat down at a roadside café and ordered a coffee. “I can’t believe I spent twenty million yuan in under two hours!”
The money Finn had spent was directly transferred by Zero and not from the initial hundred million, but Finn’s heart still felt an undescribable sensation. In the past, he had to work for a month to earn a little over 3000 yuan. Now, in just two hours, Finn had spent the equivalent of 555 years’ worth of his past income!
This feeling… it was like being in a dream.
“Mission complete, points have been credited.” Zero’s voice, like music to the ears, rang out as the time ran out.
Finn was eager to see what was in Zero, but he restrained himself. It wasn’t the right time and place. Although no one could hear Zero’s voice, the virtual screen that it projected could be seen by others.
But even without a peek, Finn knew very well that his 200 points weren’t even enough to redeem the cheapest item — the potion.
“Zero, I’d like to know, how do you determine the efficacy of Strength +1, Agility +1 potions? For example, how much is my strength according to your evaluation?” Eventually, Finn asked seriously after some thought.
“The standard level for an adult human is 20 for both strength and agility. If both are at 20, it means the person has optimal health. The standard for intelligence is 15. Human potential is capped at 100.”
“All capped at 100?” Finn asked in surprise. A standard level of 20 doesn’t sound like much, but he was certain that he could never reach it. He Maggies not have the worst physique, but it was far below average.
And if the human limit could reach 100, wouldn’t that be five times the strength of an adult? That’s almost like being a Superman.
“Really? There’s such a big gap?” Finn couldn’t believe that he was that far behind, even though he was slim.
“My data is never wrong.” Zero responded without a trace of emotion, but Finn was exhilarated. Did this mean he could become a master like those in movies? He might not know shit about fighting, but if he had superhuman physiques, he could easily beat up ten people at once, right? Who doesn’t dream about becoming a superhero? There must be a reason superhero movies are so popular.
“Give me two bottles of Strength+l potion”. Finn exclaimed, without any hesitation. It’s not that he hadn’t considered saving points, but there is a significant gap to the first item he could redeem with his points. Therefore, Finn unhesitatingly redeemed the potion.
In the past, he’d been extremely envious of those with toned muscles. Now, as his stats improved, he’d definitely have muscles, wouldn’t he?
“Redemption complete,” Zero’s voice quickly echoed, “Do you want to withdraw it now, or later?”
“Later.” What did this strength potion look like and what would happen if someone saw it when he took it out? Finn decided it would be better to wait until he was back in his hotel room.
After finishing his coffee, Finn quickly hailed a cab to his hotel. There were fewer cars on the road at this time, so he reached his hotel quickly. As soon as he stepped into his room, he immediately said, “Quickly, bring out the potion. How do I drink it?”
“You can drink it directly.” As Zero finished his sentence, two bottles of red potion materialized on the table. The potion bottles looked like test tubes from the lab, one end sealed with a cork.
“I just drink it directly?” Finn asked, pointing to the potion, “I don’t need to inject it or anything?”
“Nope, but I’m sorry, you can’t drink it yet.”
“Why?” Finn was taken aback, “Didn’t you just say I can drink it directly?”
“Because increasing a human’s physical qualities is a comprehensive process.
In other words, you have to exchange your points for a bottle of Strength Potion, an Agility Potion, and an Intelligence Potion, and then consume all three together.”
Finn: ‘
“Why didn’t you tell me this before? Why only tell me after I’ve exchanged my points?! Also, if physical qualities need to be improved comprehensively, why are you selling the potions separately?” Finn was about to lose his mind! Did Zero know how hard it was for him to earn those 200 points? Those 200 points were equivalent to two million yuan! It was all wasted! He had no idea when he’d get to complete his next task and acquire more points!
“Selling the potions separately helps to boost their sale value,” Zero replied calmly.
‘ Finn was speechless at Zero’s shameless comment.. After a long pause, he choked out: “Well played!”
