Chapter 169: Chapter 155: Puppet

[Task Reward 1: 750 Experience Points]

Under the 160% rate increase of the S+ rating, Li Cheng gained 1200 points of experience, rising from the original Lv9 with an Experience Bar of 760/900,

to gaining two levels up to Lv11, Experience Bar standing at 60/1100.

[Task Reward 2: 1400 Game Coins]

This reward likewise rose substantially to 2240 Game Coins, which, if taken to the black market, could be exchanged for over thirty million in cash. No wonder they say gamers make fast money.

[Task Reward 3: Random Item *1, quality depends on the clearance evaluation]

[Task Reward 4: Random Skill Scroll *1, quality depends on the clearance evaluation]

Once again came the exciting moment of unboxing, and it was even a double unboxing. Li Cheng rubbed his hands back and forth, focusing his thoughts on the treasure chest in the item bar, muttering to himself, "Open!"

As the bright light flashed, the chest slowly opened, revealing a large paperback notebook lying quietly inside, its black cover inscribed with a line of thin white English letters.

DEATH NOTE.

Between the letters D and O, there was also a white dot.

"Holy shit, holy shit, Death Note?! How come it’s this thing?"

Li Cheng’s expression became incredibly animated, the Death Note item originating from the 2003 detective mystery manga of the same name by Ooba Kei, published in Shueisha’s "Weekly Shonen Jump." As long as a person’s name, the time of death, and a relatively reasonable cause of death are written in the notebook, the named person will die in that manner, truly a divine tool of causality.

Especially now, with personal information so easily accessible on the internet, the Death Note can’t even be considered a gallows anymore, totally more like a Maxim gun, achieving an evening’s effect of "Earth seems a bit too modern."

Just as Li Cheng was lost in thought, he suddenly noticed that in front of the English "death" on the black notebook, there were two very small, nearly invisible, black letters: look.

[Item Name: Suicide Notebook]

[Type: Tool]

[Quality: Fine]

[Special Effect: You’re seeking death. Once the user touches the inner pages of the notebook, they will immediately use the nearest drawing tool to sketch a possible death scene they might encounter soon. This effect will spontaneously enhance the user’s own drawing skills]

[Consumption: 10 Sanity Points + 5% of maximum Sanity Value, doubling with each use within 20 minutes]

[Cooling Time: None]

[Use Conditions: At least one near-death experience]

[Note: The notebook contains 100 pages; each drawn page will automatically restore itself one hour after completion. The notebook does not possess causative effects, only providing a certain predictive function]

[Note: Whether just or evil, poor or rich, death fairly waits for all of us at the end, so please do not jump the queue]

"Uh..."

Li Cheng’s eyes twitched again and again, adding a tiny look in front of the Death Note to turn it into a Suicide Notebook, well isn’t that something. Starbucks, knock-off brands like Wang Lao Gu, O’le Chill, Six Nuclear Bombs, Kangshifu, Jin You Fish all give their likes to you.

Although it’s not the causal divine tool like the original Death Note, this thing seems quite good? Its special effect could predict near-future death methods, and Li Cheng’s mind raced with many clever manipulations.

But before that, it’s time to check the next item acquired.

[Skill Scroll Name: Instant Thunder]

[Attribute: Learning Type (once only)]

[Type: Fighting]

[Usage Mode: Active]

[Level: Fine]

[Special Effect: Thunder Flash Rampage. Using one’s own bioelectricity to stimulate the spine and limbs, obtaining movement capabilities surpassing the usual physiological limits in a short time]

[Consumption: 70 Spiritual Power Points, 100 Physical Points. After exceeding 10 seconds, consumes 2 points of Spiritual Power and Physical Value per second]

[Cooling Time: 100 seconds]

[Learning Conditions: Agility Attribute of at least 10 points]

[Note: The state of Instant Thunder can cause certain damage to the body, sustained use might lead to muscle paralysis, cardiac arrhythmia, skeletal carbonization, skin metallization, etc.]

[Note: You are the electricity, you are the light, you are the only myth.]

Compared to the flashy effects of the [Suicide Notebook], this [Instant Thunder] skill scroll is straightforward and strong, with low learning requirements, reasonable consumption, and a relatively short cooling time.

As for the side effects that pose a burden to the body, they can be fully compensated by other methods.

Moreover, there is an unwritten rule in the killing field: the greater the restrictions of a skill and the stronger its side effects, generally, the stronger its effects.

After leveling up two levels, Li Cheng now had two free attribute points at his disposal, which could meet the skill learning requirements, but there is no hurry at this moment.

He shifted his gaze from the skill scroll, looking at the other two gains from this mission.

One is the newly-triggered trait, [Barbecue Lover: +120 maximum Sanity Value points, -1 Charm]

The scene matching this trait was of Li Cheng recklessly massacring puppets in an underground tunnel, using a Nuclear Energy Lighter.

Li Cheng didn’t hesitate to equip this trait; after all, a mentally stable, well-educated adult’s total Sanity Value is only about 100 points, and this trait added a whooping 120 points to the limit.

As for that one point deduction in Charm... after all, traits can be equipped or unequipped anytime, they can just remove the trait when Charm attribute is needed.

The final gain, the doll sealed by the red phone booth.

[Name: Assembly Puppet]

[Type: Magic Tool]

[Quality: Perfect]

[Special Effect 1: Painless Disassembly. The user can freely remove any part of their body, and the removed part will not bleed or cause pain for a short period]

[Special Effect 2: Splicing and Assembly. The user’s body can be connected with external components. The higher the compatibility/fit between the connected components, the more their functions will be realized. If compatibility is too low, they cannot be spliced]

[Special Effect 3: Forced Fusion. Consumes a large amount of Spiritual Power to forcibly increase the compatibility of external components so that they can be assimilated by the user’s body, reducing use conditions if it’s an item from the killing field]

[Consumption: A certain amount of Spiritual Power, Physical Value, and Sanity Value, varies depending on the splicing material]

[Cooling Time: None]

[Use Conditions: None]

[Note: The removed body parts will still bleed, decay, and rust over time, and thus need to be properly preserved]

[Note: My creator, if you do not love me, why did you create me? If you love me, why did you abandon me?]

[Note: The United Nations Ordinance 3160 on Anomalous Items, after verification, a puppet that spontaneously appeared on December 25, 2020, on the streets of Seville, Spain, found to possess extremely strong Level 5 anomalous attributes, trace self-awareness, and learning capabilities. Conventional containment methods trigger the target’s rebellious mood and violent tendencies, thus a special permission was granted to construct a new Disney amusement park at the discovery location for long-term containment. The goal of containment is not to contain the other party, but to make them believe they have been contained.]
