Chapter 658: The First Ultimate Bronze Ability
With this thought in mind, he opened the system interface as planned and was just about to click on [Bronze Point] in preparation to draw his ability.
However, the moment his hand pressed on the [Bronze Point], the premonition he had just now reappeared…
Su Yang frowned and stopped what he was doing because the feeling seemed to be silently telling him that the best thing for him to do at that moment was to sit quietly and do nothing.
‘What the…?
‘Why is this happening again?
‘I still remember that not long after I destroyed the Fengs, I’ve felt something similar during my previous lucky period.
‘However, that time was much more stressful than this one, but it’s not as clear as this time. I can only feel a vague feeling that if I don’t sit still, a disaster would befall onto me.
‘Last time, I ended up sitting and meditated for 20 whole minutes and only managed to get rid of that feeling when my lucky period ended. At first, I thought that I’d definitely encountered something especially lucky.
‘However, nothing happened in the next few months, which confused me.
‘Now, I’m having this premonition again. So, should I go along with my gut feeling again this time…’
Then, Su Yang looked at the brick on the bed. The countdown on the [Lucky Disfiguring Brick] was still ticking.
Su Yang hesitated for a while before sitting down quietly. Then, he closed his eyes and did not do anything.
‘I can’t help but feel that this premonition is very important.
‘Even though I don’t know what the previous premonition had brought me, it’s definitely given me a surprise somewhere that I just didn’t understand.
‘So this time, I hope the same happens as well…’
…
Five minutes ago, in Hong Kong’s Fufeng Bank, where it was a working day… Several employees from the bank were providing their services pa.s.sionately.
At counter No.8, a bespectacled young man in a checkered s.h.i.+rt was whispering, “If I deposit this amount of money, how much interest can I get every month?”
The receptionist who was serving the man was considered to be a pretty woman. She explained patiently, “About 200 yuan a month.”
“200 yuan…” Disappointment was written all over the young man’s face as he mumbled,” I’m still far from my goal. ”
After saying that, he said, “Please help me proceed then, thank you.”
The receptionist said, “Sure.”
After a moment, she said, “Please enter your account pa.s.sword.”
The young man raised his hand and slowly pressed a few b.u.t.tons on the keyboard. His movements were so slow that it was as if he was not very nimble with his limbs.
Suddenly, the door of Fufeng Bank was slammed open with a “Bang” and a gang of gunmen wearing black hoods with only their eyes exposed rushed in!
These people seemed like they were repeat offenders. After they rushed in, they immediately spread out and took point at the advantageous terrain. Then, they shouted, “All of you, get down on your knees with your hands above your heads! This is a robbery!”
“Get down! This is a robbery!”
“Get the f*ck down, all of you! This is robbery!”
This kind of scene that could only be seen in television dramas scared everyone out of their wits. One of the fat women next to the young man screamed and tried to run.
These criminals were obviously not messing around as one of them who held a shotgun immediately aimed at the woman and fired with a “Bang”!
With one shot, the bullets flew out and the woman immediately collapsed into a pool of blood, shocking everyone present.
Hence, no one dared to make another sound as they slowly raised their hands and placed them above their heads as squatted down…
However, amongst all of them, only the young man who was going to deposit his money was still sitting on the chair.
One of the criminals stepped forward and hit him with the brunt of his gun. “What the f*ck are you doing!”
However, the young man was knocked to the ground and did not move an inch.
The criminal looked down and realized that the youth had already died from being accidentally injured from the previous shotgun pellets and was bleeding profusely.
Hence, the criminal spat and cursed, “You unlucky sh*t!”
Then, he waved his hand and found one of his accomplices before they both picked up the young man and the fat woman. After that, they threw them at the door to deter the crowd who had come to watch because of the accident.
At the same time, his other accomplices also started to loot the bank’s cash.
Their plan was very detailed, and they moved like they were veterans, plus they were ruthless. Therefore, the bank employees did not dare resist and obediently took out the money.
Not long after, the criminals finished s.n.a.t.c.hing the items and drove away, leaving behind a pile of chicken feathers and two people who were laying lifeless on the ground.
At this time, Hong Kong’s police and paramedics arrived, late to the scene.
When they arrived at the bank entrance, they saw the two people lying in a pool of blood. The officer walked past them and headed toward the bank. On the other hand, the paramedics immediately surrounded them and started to check up on them while attempting to resuscitate them.
After performing the necessary first aid, they carried the two to the stretcher and sent them to the ambulance.
After getting into the car, the driver turned around and asked, “There are two hospitals nearby. One is Hong Kong Hospital, the other is Renan Hospital. Which one should we send them to?”
One of the paramedics said, “Renan Hospital.”
Hence, the driver started the engine and the ambulance left with the two injured people.
Just as the car was about to start moving, Su Yang was tapping on the [Lucky Disfiguring Brick] as well. After hesitating for a while, he chose to sit down quietly.
Five minutes later, the ambulance stopped at Hong Kong Hospital…
When the paramedic got out of the ambulance, he was dumbfounded. “Why are we at Hong Kong Hospital?”
The driver was stunned as well. “Did I drive to Hong Kong?” He slapped his head. “Have I misremembered the place? This is so Surreal.”
The other paramedic in the car said, “Who cares which hospital this is?! We’ve got to save them first! Aren’t there much more surreal incidents in Hong Kong?”
…
Su Yang sat quietly for five minutes, but nothing happened. Hence, the feeling gradually disappeared and it was replaced by a feeling that urged him to draw his Bronze Ability.
Su Yang was a little speechless. ‘This [Luck+]… Could the [+] be this premonition?
‘Is it trying to tell me what’s the luckiest thing to do during this lucky period?’
While complaining, Su Yang opened the system according to the hint from his “gut feeling”.
Looking at his “a.s.sets” on the system, Su Yang put his palms together and prayed silently, “I want the [Film & Television Post Production Ability]. I want the [Film & Television Post Production Ability].”
After praying, Su Yang clicked on one of the Bronze Points.
As he clicked on the Bronze Point, a system notification appeared before him.
[Obtained Bronze Point. You may choose any one from the three random abilities to add a point onto.]
At the end of the notification, an option appeared before Su Yang, where all three options were the same:
- Film & Television Post Production Ability
- Film & Television Post Production Ability
- Film & Television Post Production Ability
When Su Yang looked at the ability that he wanted, he was filled with excitement because he knew that his plan had succeeded!
Yesterday, when Su Yang was planning to use the lucky time to draw the Bronze Ability, he thought that since it was going to be done during his lucky period, the chances of him obtaining the ability he wanted would increase greatly.
He had chatted with Guo Fan half a month ago and had also seen the blueprints that Guo Fan had made. He felt that with his current [Advanced Film & Television Post Production Ability], it was going to be difficult for him to have it completed.
He knew that even though he could get it done, it would not be extraordinary.
Therefore, Su Yang, who was h.e.l.lbent on making “Wandering Planet” into a milestone for locally produced movies, set his [Film & Television Post Production Ability] as the first goal he had to complete.
Thankfully, his plan did not go wrong. He had indeed obtained this ability.
‘This is even better than what I have planned. Since all three abilities are the same, there should be another additional effect!’
While Su Yang was thinking, the system automatically confirmed his choice.
The option in front of Su Yang disappeared and the [Advanced Film & Television Post Production Ability] appeared in front of Su Yang. Then, a +1 image appeared on it.
Then, the small line of words, [Advanced Film and Television Post-Production Ability], slowly turned into gold dust and disappeared.
A moment later, a pile of gla.s.s-like dust slowly gathered from where it had been, slowly forming a new line of small words, [Ultimate Film & Television Post Production Ability].
‘Ultimate Ability?’
Su Yang was stunned.
‘I thought that the level after Advanced would be Master. Now, it seems like there’s a gap between Advanced and Master Abilities.
‘No wonder I didn’t feel like I was standing at the pinnacle of humanity when I had my [Guitar Master] in my hands after adding points to that item until it was at its highest level.
‘So it’s because I’m still one level away…’
Just as Su Yang understood the situation, he started to be pumped with knowledge and experiences.
Su Yang could feel all sorts of experiences and knowledge from the film industry entering his brain.
Not only that, other than absorbing the experience and knowledge, he also felt like he had suddenly gained a lot of inspiration. As long as he thought about an image, he knew how to realize it.
In fact, there were some techniques that he did not know about that he could create with some careful thought.
Slowly, after absorbing the experience, Su Yang felt that he might know what his [Ultimate Ability] had improved.
It was creativity.
Previously, regardless of whether it was Beginner, Intermediate, or Advanced Ability, Su Yang only had experiences and knowledge. In other words, he could only follow the instructions according to his memory to resolve his matters.
But now… He could practically do anything based on the knowledge he had in his mind.
‘This is amazing!’
Su Yang absorbed the knowledge for 16 minutes before he opened his eyes.
After he opened his eyes, he gulped down Sanque’s ginseng water on the table to replenish his energy.
Then, he took a look at the time on the [Lucky Disfiguring Brick]. ’20 minutes has pa.s.sed.’
With sufficient preparation yesterday, Su Yang did not even calculate the time and knew that it was too late for him to absorb another Bronze Ability.
Furthermore, once he chose to draw a Bronze Ability, the remaining 10 minutes of his lucky period would be wasted by the time he had to “absorb the knowledge and experiences from that particular Bronze Ability”.
Therefore, Su Yang started Plan B without hesitation. The next nine minutes would be divided into two parts. The first eight minutes would be to do something else, while the last minute would be to draw the last Bronze Ability.
