Chapter 45: Mission Accomplished (Second Update Seeking Recommendations)

  PS: 853 already, just short of 147, please everyone push it up, push the recommended votes to one thousand, thank you all! ...... "Old Cui, I heard from Xiao Fu that you were doing well on the desert side, how did you think of running here?"

  Lin Xiao and the five of them sat around on the sofa, chatting idly, when Lin Xiao asked about Cui Fu, he clearly saw a change in Mai Ke's expression.

  "Hah! A place like the desert can't compare to here, and besides, I'm looking for my old buddy from back in the day!" Cui Fu chuckled and patted Ma Ke on the shoulder.

  "I'd rather you didn't come!" Mike said with a helpless expression.

  "Hah! You'd think that, but unfortunately I'm still here!" Cui Fu said with a smile.

  Noticing the tension between them, Franklin immediately changed the subject to the recent assassination missions Lester had him do. Just as he was savoring how he took out those four jurors with a sniper rifle, Lester coughed several times.

  "Little rich, didn't expect you to be so violent!" Lin Xiao hooked his arm around Franklin's neck and said with a smile.

  "You're even more violent than I am!" Franklin struggled for a few moments before giving up, rolling his eyes and saying, "I'm not going to take down twenty-eight heavily armed special forces soldiers alone, that's just crazy!"

  "Ah! This isn't being forced, is it? And that was a narrow escape from death. If I had a choice, I'd rather not have encountered something like that."

  "Lyn, have you been hanging out at the casino lately?" Lester asked curiously.

  "Occasionally!" Lin Xiao said, "If I go there often, I'm afraid I would have lost my life long ago. Most of the time, I still like to go to the seaside to appreciate the scenery of the sea."

  "Oh! Lin, you really know how to enjoy yourself. Compared to you, we're as tired as cows." Franklin complained.

  "Hah! Xiao Fu, in that case I can only offer you spiritual support." Lin Xiao said with a smile.

  Everyone didn't talk much about this topic, and soon Cui asked about Lin Xiao's fighting skills.

  It turns out that Lin Xiao's victories in fighting against others are all achieved through crushing methods. If he encounters an opponent with the same physical quality as him, and the other party is also proficient in wrestling skills, Lin Xiao will be completely defeated.

  "Old Cui, what kind of combat skill did you learn in the army?" Lin Xiao asked. He was obviously interested in learning Cui's combat skills, after all, in the game, Cui was known for being able to take on a dozen or so enemies at once, especially with that shocking image of him wearing a pink dress and sleeping amidst a pile of corpses.

  "What can be learned in the army is just some rigid combat skills, but I once met a veteran who taught me a killing technique, which is specifically used to kill people!" Cui Fu sneered at Lin Xiao.

  "When you're free, can you teach me?" Lin Xiao said tentatively.

  "No problem! If you want to learn, I'll teach you right away." Cui Fu didn't hesitate at all and agreed directly.

  At the same time that Cui Fu was answering readily, a crisp system prompt sounded in Lin Xiao's mind.

  Ding!

  "Will Trevor Philips teach the host combat skills in GTA 5 world? Does the host choose to learn?"

  Lin Xiao smiled and silently recited "study" in his heart. In an instant, a semi-transparent screen popped up in front of him.

  "Level 5 Boxing Technique, learning requires consuming 20 points of Level 1 Small Boundary Power."

  "Level 7 Assassination Technique, learning requires consuming 40 points of Small Thousand Boundary Force."

  Lin Xiao directly skipped the previous 5th-level combat skills and his eyes fell on the 7th-level killing skill below, which was the highest level of skill Lin Xiao had ever seen, one level higher than Franklin's 6th-level car driving.

  Without hesitation, Lin Xiao directly chose to study.

  In an instant, Lin Xiao's 1st-level Small Thousand Boundary Force was reduced by 40 points, but at the same time, a large amount of information about fighting skills emerged in his mind. In less than one second, he possessed various combat experiences that Cui Feng had practiced for twenty to thirty years.

  "Come on, let's drink a toast!" Franklin raised his glass and shouted at them.

  Lin Xiao also smiled and raised his wine glass for a toast with everyone, finishing it in one gulp with a smile all over his face.

  Consumed 40 points of first-level Small Thousand Boundary Force to learn the seventh-level Killing Technique, causing Lin Xiao's original combat power of 8 points to directly increase by 0.9, reaching a height of 8.9.

  If Choi's combat skills were at level 8 or 9, Lin Xiao's fighting strength would likely be boosted to a height of nine points.

  It was after ten o'clock at night when they finally took their leave one by one and left Franklin's home.

  For the next six days, Lin Xiao had been paying attention to this stock of Hongmu Tobacco. It started from a low point and gradually began to rebound. By now, it has risen by 308%, and at this time, Lin Xiao directly sold out his stocks and instantly gained $2 billion, 200 million, 276 thousand and 800 dollars.

  At that moment when the funds arrived, Lin Xiao's mind once again echoed with the system's pleasant and melodious prompt.

  Ding!

  "Mission 'Family Fortune' (Final) completed. Will the host claim their reward immediately?"

  Lin Xiao chose 'yes' without hesitation, and in an instant, the refreshing feeling he had just experienced a few days ago swept through his entire body again, making him feel so comfortable that he could hardly stand still.

  This feeling came quickly and went just as fast, only two or three seconds passed, everything returned to normal, the only difference was that the explosive power within his body left Lin Xiao utterly enchanted.

  "Is this what it feels like to be full of power?" Lin Xiao's gaze swept around, and he took a step forward, walking directly to the coffee table in the living room. He casually picked up a teacup on top of it, and with a slight exertion of force, the teacup cracked open in his hand. As Lin Xiao's strength increased, the teacup continued to emit an ear-piercing shattering sound. A few seconds later, Lin Xiao spread out his hand, and a pile of ceramic powder fell from his palm onto the floor.

  Clapped hands, and there was not a single wound on them.

  Combat Power: 16.9

  Before Lin Xiao could continue experimenting, the system's prompt sounded in his mind once again. This time, it was unusually loud.

  "Congratulations, host, on completing the task 'Activation of Primary Authority'. The primary authority of the Multiverse System has been successfully activated."

  "System upgrading..."

  About a few minutes later, Lin Xiao's mind once again echoed with the system's electronic voice.

  Ding!

  "System upgrade complete, would you like to immediately claim the reward 'Wan Jie Secret' first layer?"

  Lin Xiao had long been wondering what the Wan Jie Secret was, and upon hearing this prompt, he immediately chose 'yes'.

  "The host receives the reward. The first layer of information of 'Wan Jie Secret' will be automatically branded on the host's soul, and there may be some discomfort during the process. Please prepare yourself."

  "Any discomfort?" Lin Xiao was still thinking about what degree of discomfort this was, when a piercing pain suddenly transmitted to his brain.

  In an instant, Lin Xiao's entire body convulsed and fell to the ground.
