Chapter 200 – Shing Wong’s Broder Patroller
In truth, it was a complete coincidence that he had met the Ming Lun Envoy the last time he went in.
Having charm at 8.23 points was not really that great
No matter what was said, it should be noted that Wei Xiao Bei now considered Zhu Xin Yi as an important partner to train. If he needed charm in the future, Zhu Xin Yi could reach the top of it, and they could just complement each other.
His thoughts had slightly derailed from the main question. Now, he needed to think of how to allocate his 910 evolution points.This meant that increasing an ability above perfection was impossible.
As for what to increase, Wei Xiao Bei listed down his attributes and skills on paper. He cut them to strips, placed them inside a cup, shook the cup, and drew one strip.
When he looked at the strip, Wei Xiao Bei was slightly hesitant. It was [Electrical Work].
This skill could be said to be really useful in real life. Moreover, if he increased it to a certain level, it could boost his release electricity skill.
However, it could also be said to be useless. After all, there were no electrical devices in the Dust World to fiddle with. Finding working electronic parts would probably be evenharder.
After pondering a bit, Wei Xiao Bei did not bother thinking anymore.
Since he decided to hand over everything to luck, then he should follow it.Although the 30% luck increasing effects of the Fortune Tea had already expired, he still gained a permanent 1% luck, so it should not be that bad.
300 evolution points quickly disappeared into his [Electrical Work] skill, upgrading it from expert to master.
However, this was not enough. Wei Xiao Bei focused on it again and used up 500 evolution points, before stopping.
Electrical Work (Perfection)
When his [Electrical Work] increased by two ranks into perfection, he noticed some changes to his [Release Electricity] skill.
Special Skills:
Release Electricity (Maximum Strength: 1000 volts, requires 3 evolution points to increase 1 volt. Maximum Current: 62 milliampere, requires 2 evolution points to increase 1 milliampere. This skill formed after Wei Xiao Bei ate the Thunder Worm Electric Ball. Maintaining a constant output for a long period could allow this skill to level up. Using this while exercising would stimulate strength and slowly increase agility.)
Adjust Voltage (This ability appeared when [Electrical Work] reached perfection. This ability allows the user to adjust voltage output from 10 to 1000 at intervals of 10.)
Adjust Electric Current (This ability appeared when [Electrical Work] reached perfection. This ability allows the user to adjust electric current output from 10 to 62 at intervals of 10.)
Two new special skills appeared that had complemented his [Release Electricity] skill.
He could now adjust his voltage in intervals of 10, such as 10 volts, 20 volts, 30 volts, up to the maximum value.
This was also the same for electric current.
Although the interval was a bit big and prevented him from doing a few things that he had originally planned, it was still very useful.
After increasing the voltage to above 200 volts, he did not dare use his electrical powers on people randomly.
If Wei Xiao Bei touched people without being able to adjust the voltage and current, those people who had bad luck would die or be paralyzed for life.
At the very least, he had no plans of becoming a homicidal maniac.
Good.
Wei Xiao Bei nodded his head in satisfaction. Although his increase in luck was not much, he still felt that it was useful, since he did not end up choosing wrong.
Wei Xiao Bei went out and brought back an electric multimeter.
He pressed his finger on the probes and let out electricity.
The monitor immediately displayed 30 volts.
Wei Xiao Bei frowned. The voltage that he wanted to output was 20 volts.
Afterwards, Wei Xiao Bei tested the electric current. He wanted to let out 30 milliamperes, but only 20 was displayed.
Without a doubt, he needed to train in both special skills in order to use them properly.
Unfortunately, he could not bring the multimeter into the Dust World. Otherwise, he would have been able to practice while he was travelling.
In the next 30 minutes, Wei Xiao Bei just focused on training to control his voltage and electric current.
After Wei Xiao Bei had trained the two skills to a passable level, he prepared to enter the Dust World by drinking the wine.
……
When Wei Xiao Bei woke up, he first surveyed the surroundings.
The furniture inside the living room appeared a bit old, but it was different from his previous visits where everything looked a hundred years old.
Wei Xiao Bei got up, wore his backpack, and looked out the window.
It was quiet outside and not that different from reality. The ground also appeared to not have that much dust.
Could it be because this place is within the county?
This was the first time he had encountered this kind of situation, so since he had already entered, he did not plan to just simply leave.
He walked to the wall and pressed on the light switch, but there was no response from the bulb. He bitterly smiled as he felt that he was just overthinking things.
Although the furniture did not look too old, he was still in the Dust world, so how could there be electricity?
The television did not look old, but there was a huge hole on it.
When Wei Xiao Bei left the house and walked to the streets, he saw that it was completely devoid of life.
If he did not observe the damage around the buildings, he would have felt that the Bai Ta County had suddenly became an empty county.
He walked to a retail store that sold electrical devices and looked inside, but it was empty.
On the side of the retail store was a kiosk, his eyes lighting up when he saw that the cigarette cabinet was full.
Wei Xiao Bei had learned how to smoke when he was in the army, but after retiring and working, he was not able to do so anymore due to financial difficulty.
In the end, Wei Xiao Bei decided to stop smoking.
However, he was actually able to discover cigarettes in the Dust World. This made the urge to smoke rise up from within him.
Although the cigarette cabinet was originally locked, this was nothing for him.
He grabbed the lock and strongly twisted it.
With a pop, the cabinet was open.
There were more than 20 packs of cigarettes inside. After all, the cigarette cabinet was only for display purposes and just had two packs of each brand.
After putting everything into his backpack, Wei Xiao Bei opened a pack of Zhong Hua’s and happily held a stick in his mouth. He lightly touched the end of the stick with his right hand and let out an electric arc, igniting the cigarette with high temperature.
He took a deep breath and slowly exhaled, causing smoke to come out.
Not bad.
Wei Xiao Bei exclaimed. For a pack of cigarettes like Zhong Hua that costed more than 10 yuan, he would have hated to waste such money before. After fighting in the underground arena and earning money, this thought did not even cross his mind.
Today could be considered a fresh experience.
While smoking a stick, Wei Xiao Bei walked around the streets.
The place was very quiet. Majority of the stores were empty and only a few of them had somethings inside.
After moving through different roads, Wei Xiao Bei found some bottled water, packed food, and even two set of clothes.
Wei Xiao Bei felt that this place overall, was much more impoverished compared to the Dust World back at Cui Hu City.
Shing Wong Temple should be up ahead.
Wei Xiao Bei slightly hesitated when he looked up at the Shing Wong Temple which had looked better compared to reality.
After going to Bai Ta Hill and the local god’s temple, Wei Xiao Bei knew that he had no way of dealing with people who came from within them.
Danger!
Wei Xiao Bei suddenly felt the arrival of danger.
“Who are you?”
When Wei Xiao Bei was prepared to leave, but the street in front of him blurred and a green clothed official and five bailiffs appeared in front of him.
It was the Shing Wong’s Border Patroller and his attendants that he had met when he was back Cao Village.
The green clothed official complexion was like jade. He had a long beard and sword-like eyebrows.
In the next instant, his eyes stared at Wei Xiao Bei and unhappily shouted, “Outrageous mortal! You still haven’t kneeled after seeing this god!”
Wei Xiao Bei immediately felt as if Mt.Tai was suddenly pressing down on his head!
At this moment, Wei Xiao Bei could even hear the slight creaking sound from his bones as he endured the pressure.
He never imagined that such a situation would happen.
After meeting the local god, Wei Xiao Bei knew that this kind of power did not have any ill intent.
However, he never imagined that he would receive this kind of attack the first time he met the Shing Wong’s Border Patroller. It could even be called an insult.
Wei Xiao Bei had a high pride. He did not want to simply kneel down in front of someone, even if it was a god!
“HA!”
Wei Xiao Bei quickened the Qi cycling inside his body to immediately withstand the pressure.
Iron Will! Elementary Power Burst! Ground Rooting!
He immediately activated three abilities!
However, he could only defend for a moment. The mountain like pressure was too strong and constant.
