Chapter 078 The Day of the Chosen, The Chosen One_2



```

"What Berserker."

[Skill 3: Martyr's Conviction (D-level Skill, 11,500 Mall Coins) (Skill retained from yesterday, will disappear the next day)]

[Skill 4: Hundred Demons Parade (B-level Skill, 55,500 Mall Coins) (Opens a "Hundred Demons Parade" in the space ahead, the higher your "Spiritual Power" attribute, the higher-level demons and gods you can summon)]

"Isn't this damn thing supposed to be an A-level Skill?"
Experience more tales on empire

Ke Mingye had his doubts, but since he couldn't afford it, he had no right to bitch about it.

[Skill 5: Essence Theft (C-level Skill, 30,000 Mall Coins) (Upon use, enter a state lasting 20 seconds, every time you deal damage to the enemy there will be a 20% chance success rate check; if successful, steal 10% of the enemy's attribute values, the stolen attributes will disappear after 5 minutes)]

"Can't afford it."

[Skill 6: Death of Jesus (B-level Skill, 51,500 Mall Coins) (Create a miniature cross in the palm of your hand and designate a target, if the target dies within 10 seconds, their soul will attach to the cross. If the cross is not destroyed within 10 minutes, the target will be resurrected)]

"Can't afford it, but why are there so many B-level Skills today?"

[Skill 7: Partial Metalization (E-level Skill, 5,500 Mall Coins)]

[Skill 8: Greed's Finger (D-level Skill, price is 12,000 Mall Coins) (Skill effect: Inflict "varies with the amount of Mall Coins the player has" true damage on a target. If you manage to kill the target with this move, you will gain 200 Mall Coins) (Killing targets that are too weak will not yield Mall Coins)

(Damage calculation formula: 500 points of true damage + additional damage affected by the number of Mall Coins; the more Mall Coins you have in your bag, the higher the damage this move will deal. Currently having 12,260 Mall Coins, Greed's Finger can deal an additional "1% of the enemy's maximum health" as true damage)]

"This Skill is good for finishing off because it deals true damage. No matter how thick the opponent's skin is, it won't change the damage of this move. If used at the right moment, it could even burst coins," Ke Mingye raised an eyebrow.

[Skill 9: Toxic Mist Eruption (E-level Skill, 5,200 Mall Coins)]

[Skill 10: Life Conversion (E-level Skill, 5,500 Mall Coins) (Convert your health into stamina on a one-to-one ratio)]

Ke Mingye hesitated for a long time between the three D-level Skills "Day of Divine Favor," "Martyr's Conviction," and "Greed's Finger," finally choosing "Day of Divine Favor."

If there was any Skill that could change the outcome, this one would definitely count as one, this was like an investment for the future.

[Thank you for your patronage, you have purchased the D-level Skill— "Day of Divine Favor."]

[Total expenditure "11,500" Mall Coins, your current Mall Coin balance is "760."]

[The Skill "Day of Divine Favor" has been automatically placed in your fifth skill slot, you now have five empty skill slots left.]

Ke Mingye opened his phone and used the Baidu search engine to look up what day it is 361 days after June 22, 2028. The final result was "June 18, 2029."]

He double-checked, then released the Skill— "Day of Divine Favor."

[You have used the Skill "Day of Divine Favor," please designate a date more than 60 days from now. On that future date, you will obtain a one-time use of the Skill "Chosen One."]

[Skill effect date: 202口年口口月口口日.]

"Seriously, isn't this like taking out a loan to invest? I'm going all out here, so the future me should contribute at least a little, right? It's up to you to annihilate the superhumans."

Ke Mingye thought to himself while selecting numbers on the panel.

[Confirmed Skill effect date as: June 18, 2029.]

[The "Day of Divine Favor" has entered a two-month cooldown period, the next time you can use this Skill will be August 22, 2028.]

"Okay."

Ke Mingye suddenly felt a sense of relief. To use an analogy, this was like the first day of summer vacation when you shove all your homework into a safe and put a timer lock that only opens on the last day of the holiday. That feeling.

Let the future me deal with the things of the future.

```

Hey, it's just about eradicating superhumans, right? With a bit of effort, you can definitely do it. Keep it up, future Ke Mingye.

At this moment, Bai Zini finally "woke up." She hurried into the kitchen, finished her breakfast, and then sat down between Mingye and Ke Yinzhi, picking up her phone.

She pretentiously launched Weibo and seriously checked the trending topics as if she truly cared.

Then... just as Mingye expected, she was about to stir things up.

"Bro, you're trending on Weibo," she said, covering her mouth and widening her eyes.

"Huh?"

Mingye turned away from the TV with a look of resignation and turned to look at her, wondering what mischief she was up to now.

"Oh... really, trending on Weibo?"

Yin Zhi, piqued by her comment, closed the book he was reading.

The two of them looked at Zi Ni, who was searching the trending topics on Weibo with her phone.

The top trend read: "Qing Ya killed a superhero last night who stood up for civilians, prompting public outrage, with large crowds gathering early this morning at the base of the Superhero Association tower demanding an explanation";

Right below it was the second trend: "Magical Girl Ash lectures a passerby";

The third trend was: "The Superhero Association made a public statement early today, clarifying that the individual who defeated the criminal 'Ghost Rider' near Huanjing Bridge last night was not a superhero, nor a vigilante, but a C-level wanted criminal known as 'Dice Monster,' and that Qing Ya acted to prevent this wanted criminal from escaping by disabling them."

After a glance at the trends, Yin Zhi asked in confusion, "Zi Ni, which trend are you saying features our little friend Mingye?"

"The second one, I accidentally swiped to it just now."

As she spoke, Zi Ni clicked into the second trend and started playing a video recorded by a blogger. The video showed Magic Girl Ash chasing a criminal and suddenly stopping to lecture passersby who were filming with their phones; the first to cop it was Mingye, who hadn't done a thing.

"They blurred the faces of the passersby and altered the voices," Zi Ni looked up at Mingye, then lowered her gaze to the video's pixelated lucky passerby, "But the person being lectured by Magic Girl has got to be big brother, dressed just like you."

After saying this, she put on her "only one truth prevails" detective face, her mouth curling into a smug smile.

"It's not me," Mingye denied with a poker face, "It's just someone else wearing the same clothes."

He muttered under his breath, thinking his sister really was a piece of work, set on giving him trouble whether he was in costume or not.

"It is you, it's definitely you!" Zi Ni wouldn't let him off, seriously analyzing, "You went for a morning run wearing the same clothes, and you even used your phone to ask me if I wanted something packed from Hong Ge Food Street."

"Indeed, judging by the figure and tone in this video, it's none other than our Mingye," said Yin Zhi with a chuckle, shaking his head and dismissing Mingye's defense after watching the video.

Mingye covered his face and took a deep breath, "Bro, you're not letting me off the hook either, huh?"

Yin Zhi took a sip of coffee, looking down at his book, "Who told you to spectate at such a dangerous scene? Didn't they teach you in school's superhuman science class? When superhuman battles happen nearby, you should evacuate to a safe place immediately, never stay put, certainly not just to watch."

"Exactly," Zi Ni nodded and lamented, "Who would have thought our big brother would also make it to the trends one day. Alas... a pity it's as a negative example, so embarrassing."

Come on, what do you mean by me also making it to the trends, aren't I the main character in all three trending topics?

Mingye sighed to himself.

And besides, the other two trends' negative examples are obviously our dear old dad, okay? Could you maybe go nag him instead of tormenting me, pretty please...
