I’ll Add Points To All Things Chapter 695 - Special Item: A 50-50 Chance Against My Opponent

Chapter 695: Special Item: A 50-50 Chance Against My Opponent

Su Yang replied nonchalantly, “Even if this is from the year 1888, it still has nothing to do with me. What I’m reading is the book, not its era.”
The old man glared at Su Yang. “70 yuan. I can’t go any cheaper.”
Su Yang had turned around and was about to leave.
However, the old man quickly stopped him. “Come back, come back here. 20 yuan! The lowest is 20 yuan! This really is my cost price! I’ll sell it to you for 20 yuan!”
Hence, Su Yang took out a 100 yuan banknote from his pocket and passed it to the old man.
However, the old man did not take it. Instead, he picked up a sign. “Do you see this? WeChat and Alipay are both accepted. Please pay without contact, let’s make all of us happy.”
Su Yang was speechless.
‘Tsk, this old man is quite trendy.’
Hence, Su Yang transferred 20 yuan to the old man and got into his car.
Su Yang sat in the car and studied the book in his hand. On the cover of the book was a bold and powerful word, analects!
Yes, that’s right. This was the epic-ranked book that recorded Confucius and his disciple’s actions throughout the five thousand years of China’s history.
This book was really too famous. It was so famous that the moment Su Yang saw this book, he would think of a saint whom the world would be filled with endless boredom without his existence.
Apart from that, Su Yang could not help but think of the character “Lao Fu Zi”.
Most of the heroes in Honor Of Kings originated from history, while the origins of Lao Fu Zi was Confucius. This was also the reason why Su Yang felt that something was not right when he read the book. ‘Lao Fu Zi isn’t a strong hero, plus he’s been nerfed recently. I really hope I don’t receive an item that has huge restrictions…’
At that thought, Su Yang returned to the villa with his worries.
Back at the villa, Su Yang looked at the analect in his hand and hesitated for a moment. In the end, he decided to add a point onto it. ‘I’ve been working hard for the whole day and this is the only item related to Honor Of Kings. So, I suppose I’ve got no other choice.’
Hence, Su Yang turned on the system and clicked on the semi-transparent [+] symbol on “Analect”.
After a faint flash, the point had been added successfully.
Then, Su Yang placed the book on the table and waited patiently for the system interface to appear. At the same time, he did not forget to take out his phone to prepare to “invite” others for a game.
Su Yang. ‘Xiaoming, time for some multiplayer exercise.’
As expected, as long as he called Qu Xuan’s original name, the latter would reply instantly. ‘Stop calling me Xiaoming!! My name is Qu Xuan!’
Su Yang then replied. ‘Alright. Xiaoming. Multiplayer exercise time, Xiaoming.’
Qu Xuan replied with. ‘…
‘I’m busy.’
After receiving that text message, Su Yang analyzed the situation calmly.
‘How could you not have time? It’s the holidays, so you don’t need to go to class.
‘Plus, your girlfriend doesn’t live in Shanghai, so you don’t need to go on a date with her.
‘Furthermore, it’s the weekend these few days, you don’t need extra training.’
After texting that, Su Yang asked, ‘Could you have… Cheated on her? In that case, I’ll have to have a good chat with Xue Ya then.’
Qu Xuan, who was on the other end of the text message, was utterly speechless.
In fact, he only wanted to say one thing at that moment. ‘Being a noob isn’t scary, but a noob without culture is terrifying… A calculative one to top it off!’
Therefore, he could only type out a few words with tears in his eyes. ‘Come on then. I’ve just gone up by two ranks.’
Su Yang chuckled. ‘Don’t worry. I won’t let you down. In fact, I’ll help you rise up the ranks.’
Qu Xuan did not believe him at all. ‘President, stop bullsh*tting me. I’ve already experienced your skill many times. Two weeks of gameplay by myself can’t even be compared to four hours with you. Yet, you’ve just claimed that you’re going to help me rise up the ranks? You can’t possibly think that I’m in Bronze, can you?’
The more Su Yang chatted, the more excited he got. He said exaggeratedly. ‘Let me tell you this, Xiaoming, the wheel of fortune is always spinning! I’m no longer the person I was yesterday! I’m enlightened now!’
Qu Xuan did not pay attention to what Su Yang said after that, not even his “bold declaration”. ‘Stop calling me Xiaoming!! My name is Qu Xuan!’
Su Yang was speechless.
‘Fine, this guy is indeed allergic to that name.’
Just as Su Yang was complaining, he heard a notification.
[Ding. Successfully added a point.]
Then, an interface appeared in front of Su Yang.
[Analect +1: Received Talent.]
‘Talent?
‘I’ve got a bad feeling about this.
‘I feel like I’m about to be let down!
‘Qu Xuan, if I fail, I hope that… That rank of yours would be able to last you for a few rounds.’
With that thought in mind, Su Yang clicked on the talent and a detailed introduction of the Analects appeared before him.
Special Item: A 50-50 Chance Against My Opponent.
Talent: After you finish reading the “analect”, you will have a 50-50 chance against your opponent. Whatever the opponent’s skill level is would become your skill level as well. If he is a noob, you will become a noob. If he is a world champion, you will also be a world champion.
Restriction 1 [Sage]: If you use a character related to Confucius in the game, you will be automatically matched with the strongest enemy and will always be 20% stronger than him.
Restriction 2 [Friends]: If you choose to be a jungler in the game, your strength will increase by 20%.
Restriction 3: The effects of Restriction 1 and 2 can be stacked.
Note: I’m really not Captain America. I haven’t got permission from Marvel.
When Su Yang saw the special item’s ability, his eyes lit up! ‘This… Is quite good!
‘Although this item doesn’t seem like it’s very strong, it suits me very well!
‘The essence of this talent is to forcibly raise someone to the skill level of their opponent!
‘If I was a professional player and I met a noob opponent, things might become detrimental for me.
‘However, I’m not a professional player!
‘In fact, I’m a disgrace in Honor of Kings!
‘In fact, I’m even suspecting that I’m the one of the weakest in the game!
‘So, as long as I’m going to “match” my opponent’s strength, then I won’t be as weak as I am now at the very least!
‘This is enough to make me satisfied.
‘Furthermore, this special item has two additional restrictions.
‘… If I use this talent in Honor Of Kings, so long as I choose Lao Fu Zi, I’m going to be at least 20% stronger than the opponent team’s carry!
‘On top of that, if the position I choose is a jungler, then I would be at least 40% stronger than the opponent’s strongest player!
‘Just this data in itself is already very impressive!
‘I’m going to be able to carry my entire team. It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that I’m a God who’s carrying four noobs!
‘I’ve decided! I, Su – Noobie- Yang, am only going to play Lao Fu Zi from now onwards! Plus, I’m going to become the King Of Junglers!
‘However, being a jungler as Lao Fu Zi… Seems a little unconventional, doesn’t it?’
As soon as this idea popped up in his head, Su Yang tossed it to the back of his mind. ‘Who cares! Anyway, even if I meet Faker, I’ll still have a 50-50 chance at winning!
‘Hang on, Faker plays League of Legends.
‘Whatever, I’m not going to be a noob anymore, that’s all that matters!’
At that thought, Su Yang picked up his phone and sent a voice message to Qu Xuan confidently. “Give me 15 minutes! I’ll bring you up the ranks immediately!”
As for why he needed 15 minutes, of course it was because… he had to read Analect!
This special item required one to finish reading “Analect” before it could take effect. ‘The full text of Analect consists of 11,705 words. I’ll definitely be able to finish reading it in 15 minutes!’
With that thought in mind, Su Yang flipped open the thesis and started reading the contents of Analect.
Just as he said the word “analect”, the Analect in front of him suddenly glowed and then enveloped him.
Accompanied by the faint glow was a system notification.
[Ding, ability activated.]
Su Yang held onto Analect and was stunned for a moment.
After a while, he said, “F*ck me! I’m supposed to say “analect”, not read the Analect! Is this even possible? All I have to do is say that word!”
Su Yang felt that he had been cheated of his point a little.
However, after a while, Su Yang felt that it was pretty good. ‘In that case, I can play the game without pausing at all! After all, two words is much, much shorter than tens of thousands of words!’
With that thought in mind, Su Yang sent Qu Xuan another WeChat message. ‘Let’s go! Time to play! I’m going to bring your up the ranks!’
Qu Xuan replied. ‘…
‘President, your 15 minutes flew by really quickly. Your girlfriend must be unsatisfied, isn’t she?’
Su Yang was speechless.
‘I suspect that you’re being perverted, but I’ve got no proof.
‘Furthermore, I feel like you’re mocking me. That’s it, you’re done for. I’m definitely going to have Xue Ya check your phone!’
Once he logged into the game, Qu Xuan’s party request arrived. Hence, Su Yang clicked [Agree] and connected to the in-game voice call.
Qu Xuan’s magnetic voice was heard. “Mr. President, could you not always drag me down? Could you go drag my sister down instead?”
Su Yang said, “How can I possibly do that? She’s my teacher after all. I have to respect my teacher!”
Halfway through his sentence, Su Yang snapped out of his daze. “Pfft! When did I say I was going to drag you down? I’m really going to help you rise up the ranks this time. Plus, I’m going to help you get back to your original rank!”
Qu Xuan smiled. “President, let me do some quick calculations. I’ve played this game with you for two days, plus you’ve only been playing ranked and not duos. So, I’ve dropped from Platinum 1 to Gold 3. That would be a total of 1 main rank and 7 sub-ranks.”
“For these eight ranks, just advancement rounds alone would be 26 rounds. So, you’re going to have to win 15 rounds in order to advance successfully.”
“There are 100 points for each rank. I’ll base each rank on five rounds for you, making eight ranks the equivalent of 40 rounds. In other words, you have to help me win more than 50 rounds! Are you sure?”
With that, Qu Xuan sighed. “Sigh, I just hope that you don’t drag me back down to Bronze.”
However, since Su Yang had a Godlike item in his hands, the world was his oyster. Hence, he consoled him earnestly, “Xiaoming, don’t be so pessimistic and listen to me. As long as we have determination and perseverance, I’ll definitely bring you back up to Platinum!
“Also, even though I owe you quite a lot, there will come a day when you return to that rank again. So, even if we can’t go up today, we’ve still got tomorrow. If we can’t go up tomorrow, there’s still the day after tomorrow. If I myself can’t bring you up, there would still be my son. If my son can’t bring you up, there would still be my grandson. In essence, it’s an endless journey.
“Sooner or later, the Sus will definitely bring you back to Platinum!”
Qu Xuan was dumbfounded.
‘This is the f*cking modern version of how mountains used to be moved in the past?
‘Future generations? Endless journey! Regardless of whether Honor Of Kings would be able to survive for so many years, even if it does, I think… You’re f*cking planning to drag me down with your entire family!’
Qu Xuan could no longer complain in his heart and only wanted the night to pass quickly so that he could secretly raise his rank.
‘If I can no longer raise my rank, I’ll… Right, should I just retire from this game then?
I heard that PUBG is quite fun, I doubt the president wouldn’t be playing that game, would he?’
With that thought in mind, the two of them chose their respective lanes and started their matchup.
10 seconds later, their party was formed and the two of them entered the Hero Selection interface.
