I’ll Add Points To All Things
chapter-319

In fact, Su Yang took this into consideration when he planned to add three bronze abilities at once.

After all, the essence of bronze abilities was to instil experience and knowledge into Su Yang's brain. If too much information was absorbed at any one time, it was likely that his brain wouldn't be able to take it.

In the beginning, he was considering if he could draw the abilities and learn them slowly. However, he found that there was no way to trick the system.

The system had a rather rigid mechanism. If three different bronze abilities were drawn, you had the choice to add or not to add points.

However, if three identical bronze abilities were drawn, the system would automatically confirm the abilities and instil the knowledge. This had been the case from the first ability he got to the two he had just obtained.

Even if you managed to get three different bronze abilities, you'd still have to pick one before you could continue drawing the next bronze ability.

Su Yang felt like the system had to be using a single-core processor that could only run one task. 'Why can't I just save up and absorb the knowledge slowly?'

However, it was now too late. Originally, Su Yang didn't think he'd have a problem absorbing the knowledge of three elementary abilities within half an hour.

However, he didn't expect the [Painting Ability] to be such a 'large' bronze ability that contained more than a dozen sub-abilities at once. It almost caused his brain to burst.

Su Yang had no choice but to resort to emergency measures. He took out one of Sanque's hands, put it into the water, and gulped it down.

Immediately after that, he felt the pain in his head ease up exponentially.

Right after that, he put on the salted fish mask!

At the moment he put on the mask, Su Yang clicked on the system and tapped on the last Bronze Mission: Help Pan Zhaodi overcome her difficulties.

The system prompted him a third time.

[View Reward?]

Su Yang hurriedly tapped [Yes].

When he was done, his mind felt relaxed. It was as if it was completely empty. The salted fish mask was working.

He slouched on the bed, feeling more like a salted fish this time than the previous times. He truly didn't want to move.

He suspected that the degree of salted-fishness he was put in was being adjusted by the mask based on the degree of his mental trauma.

A moment later, the system's prompt sounded in his ears. [Completed Bronze Mission. Bronze Point obtained. Please add a point to any of the three random abilities.]

When the prompt ended, an option box appeared in front of Su Yang with three options.

1. Tank driving ability

2. Tank driving ability

3. Tank driving ability

'Tank driving ability?'

Although he had become a salted fish, Su Yang still felt like the ability seemed to be a little weak.

'How can an ordinary civilian like me drive a tank?

'The system can't just conjure one up, can it?

'Or maybe... the system was going to disguise something like a tank like Qiao Biluo

'Sob, sob, sob.'

At that moment, the counter on the Lucky Disfiguring Brick finally ended as the glow on it completely disappeared, making it look like an ordinary brick.

Nobody had seen it before. If they did, they'd probably think it was the most common red brick from any roadside.

Naturally, you might think it's a little peculiar if you tried hitting someone with it since it had a secondary ability—it can't land a hit on other people…

Su Yang stopped thinking and laid on his bed, enjoying a rare moment of peace and quiet.

'If I have to drive a tank, so be it! I've even obtained the ability to drive one as a salted fish, so how far off can a tank be?'

Just as Su Yang lost all desire for more, the system automatically confirmed the choice as it did earlier and suddenly, the various structures and operation methods for a tank was imprinted into Su Yang's mind. He remembered them without even flinching this time. However, as two streams of blood trickled from his nose, he passed out.

...

When Director Sun woke up the next day at 8:00 a.m., he felt like he had a very comfortable sleep.

He stretched his back, touched his bulging stomach, and sighed. Since he started his business, it seemed that his stomach was getting increasingly bigger as his body's condition deteriorated.

He put on his slippers and opened the curtains and expected the sun to shine down on the house.

However, it seemed to be raining in Hangzhou today. Don't mention the sun shining in the house. It didn't even shine by the window and this put a shroud over his good mood, making him feel rather down.

He went back to his bed, picked up his cell phone to find that he had received many tweets and phone calls throughout the night.

He started with a few partners from scratch to create an enterprise with more than 100 million in assets. Director Sun had amazing internal patience. He slowly but methodically opened the phone and found that the technical director and vice president each made more than a dozen phone calls. He also had dozens of WeChat messages from various department managers.

He was a bit confused when he clicked on it.

[Did you order a publicity campaign for the [In] app where users race to find illegal content?]

[Are you picking a fight with the Find Me app?]

[Everything seems to have blown up!]

'What's all this?

'Have I lost my memory? When did I give this order?'

He called the vice president of his own company to find out what was going on, but the vice president's phone was always busy.

He called Director Yu of the marketing department again, but his phone was off.

He didn't have time to pack, so he got dressed and rushed to the office.

When he arrived at the office, the company was already in chaos so he rushed to the office of his partner, the vice president of [In].

When he arrived at the office, the vice president was still on the phone.

When he saw Sun coming, the vice president hung up the phone after saying a few words, and said with a gloomy face, "Old Sun, what's going on?"

Director Sun looked confused, "I was going to ask you the same thing."

The vicissitudes of the Vice President's face were already filled with bitterness, and he briefly explained the situation to Director Sun.

The Vice President woke up this morning and opened the news software like he always did and read the morning news.

However, he saw the news saying that his company was offering a reward of ten million dollars for information on illegal content. His first reaction was that he couldn't believe it!

As the vice president and co-founder of the company, why didn't you know about such a big event?

He was busy calling Director Sun but his phone was on silent so he couldn't hear the call. Then, he called the marketing director but Director Yu's phone was turned off as well.

At that time, he found that the news had spread at an alarming rate and everyone was praising the [In] app, thinking that they had developed an artificial intelligence just like the Find Me app and that they were at the forefront of the world.

By offering a reward of 10 million yuan, it showed how confident the company was!

The more the vice president read on the news, the stronger the chill that ran down his spine was. He didn't know if the Find Me app could pass this test but the [In] app definitely couldn't do it!

The [In] app didn't have an artificial intelligence system. Although they were usually very strict in screening their content, it was impossible for them to be free of such offending material.

As a matter of fact, he went to Weibo and saw that many users were already happily taking a video of themselves finding illegal content while tagging the company's Weibo account.

At 10 million per piece of content, that amounted to hundreds of millions of yuan at first glance. 'Does the company even have that much money?'

The other departments in the company were also in a mess. Since the big bosses weren't there, nobody dared to make any decisions.

After arriving at the company, the vice president asked the administrative personnel to call the marketing department and ask them to report on the situation. The marketing department readily admitted it and said it was Director Sun's idea.

They also took out a screenshot of Director Yu's WeChat message, which indeed said that this was the company's arrangement and that it was authorized by CEO Sun.

Because the two parties could not be contacted and did not know the details, the vice president didn't know if there was any plan and didn't dare to act recklessly. He could only react to the scrutiny of investors and shareholders.

After listening to the vice president's story, Director Sun's mouth slowly widened as his voice turned a bit hoarse, "I didn't give this order!".

The vice president also looked surprised. 'No such order was given?

'Was that Director Yu's idea?'

While they were chatting, Director Yu arrived at the office.

The receptionist informed the vice president at once but he was busy sending someone to call her to the office as well.

Under the vice president's questioning, Director Yu was also confused and surprised. "I didn't give that order either."

Both parties denied the matter, and the vice president was completely speechless as he threw the cell phones of several marketing employees at them. "Take a look for yourselves!"

After reading it, Director Yu's face completely changed. She took out her phone and found that it had been turned off for some time...

'What the hell is going on?!'

Her mind went blank, recalling a bunch of question marks and conversations from the subordinates last night.

"Director Yu, did our company decide this? Do you really want to do such a thing? Your response was… [Yes, do it. Don't worry, it's CEO Sun's idea]. Did you really send the wrong message yourself?" Director Yu's hands were trembling.

Director Sun looked at Director Yu angrily, "Director Yu! I want a reasonable explanation!"

The vice president interrupted him. "Old Sun, we're not investigating who's responsible any longer. The priority now is how to handle this matter!

Director Sun thought with a gloomy face, and a moment later, he suddenly had an idea go off in his head as he looked up with a happy face. "That's right! Didn't the tech department find some information about the Find Me app's illegal content last night?"

"Let's get the news of the Find Me app fired up so that netizens will go after them first! Only then will we think about how we'll handle the users who've found illegal content on our app."

The vice president was surprised. "They found illegal content on the Find Me app? Aren't they screened by an artificial intelligence system?"

Director Sun had a sneer on his face. "Can artificial intelligence have a 100% screening rate? How in the world can there be anything that's 100%."

"Shortly after midnight yesterday, the technical director told me he found information about the illegal content on their app. It's not that mysterious at all."

The vice president made a hasty decision, "Okay! Then let's call Director Xu over right now and announce the illegal content found on the Find Me app!"

...

Su Yang was woken up in the morning by Pool, Sanque, and Bubbles.

When they saw Su Yang lying on the bed, they were terrified. After all, anyone lying on the bed with blood on his face would seem frightening to another person...

Su Yang was woken up but looked calm and relaxed. It was because he didn't feel any discomfort aside from an itchy face from the scabs he had on his face from being hit by a brick. After drinking a cup of ginseng tea, he felt even more refreshed.

He touched the scabs on his face, and there was still the system prompt from last night floating in front of his eyes. [Randomly obtained bonus talent from identical abilities. Bonus ability obtained. Elementary Talent: Retroactive Compatibility.]

'Elementary talent: Retroactive Compatibility?

'What is this stuff?'

Su Yang was curious and clicked on it to check it out.

[Backward compatibility: all vehicles smaller than a heavy tank, you can automatically drive with the tank's driving technology. But please use caution.]

'Use… Caution?'
