The Game of Global Mining-Chapter 337 - 281: Bullshit Gang’s New Skill! Hurry to Gem City (Part 2)
Chun sighed, "Indeed, I’m about to deal with the Death God’s siege and I really don’t have time for a marquis to become an enemy out of thin air. But the marquis’s fertile Watermelon Island is really tempting!"
Aileen laughed, "You’re quite an ambitious man! If we can’t get it, why not just destroy it?"
Holy shit! Chun was shocked, "What are you thinking?"
Aileen laughed, "Why is our island a Plague Island while his is a Fertile Island?"
Spread the plague, you’re so ruthless!
Chun had to say to Nannong, "Actually, I also have grand ambitions. My long-term goal is to explore the Sea of Creation, but I’m lacking an Erudite Scholar. Are you interested?"
Nannong was surprised, "But I’ve heard it’s very dangerous!"
Chun said, "I know, so I need to prepare to become stronger. Don’t rush to certify something yet. I’ll first share these two patents with you. You can research and write some papers, but don’t publish them yet. The first patent might infringe on some pharmaceutical companies’ interests, so you must be careful not to expose it."
Nannong was excited, "That’s so kind of you, sir! I will definitely study it well!"
—— System Alert: You have shared the original patent formulas of the "Original Divine South Enzyme Anti-Plague Formula" and "Original Vinegar Muscle Regeneration Barnacle Formula" with Claude Elwood Shannon. Shannon’s favorability towards you has increased to "Grateful Adoration."
Holy shit! This favorability...
Chun laughed, "Actually, I have a short-term goal too, which has received the support of the Animal Protection Association. I want to open a zoo of rare animals. I just haven’t had the headspace or time. Can you keep an eye on it for me?"
Nannong got excited, "Do insects count? My study on pumpkins inevitably involves pests, pollinators like butterflies and bees. I have some research on these insects."
Chun also got excited, "Sure, my point is Black Iron City doesn’t have a zoo, but if we create one, we can make money from it! You’ll definitely have a share!"
Nannong was excited, "Actually, I know quite a few scholars who are underappreciated. Some of them are knowledgeable about animals..."
Wait! Chun was surprised, "You said you know many people in similar situations?"
"Yes, but their research doesn’t make money."
Chun immediately had a grand plan, "Can you gather these people to form a small group? Let’s do great things together in the future?"
Nannong excitedly said, "No problem, leave it to me! I can go right now!"
Chun laughed, "It’s so late. Won’t they be asleep?"
"Better to give a surprise in the middle of the night than to be half asleep for half a lifetime. So, sir, I’ll take my leave!"
"Go on, go on!"
Aileen sighed, "Doing such a big thing seems to need a lot of money, doesn’t it?"
Chun didn’t even think, "Recruit them into the Black Flag Commerce Association and use the association’s funds to pay salaries!"
Aileen chuckled, "What if someone leaks the secret? Won’t the Black Flag Commerce Association be exposed?"
Chun felt a bit troubled, "That’s a problem indeed, and I haven’t thought it through."
In fact, what he hadn’t thought through yet was where to go next?
It’s already midnight, and it’s impossible to continue doing honor quests because the NPCs will be off work...
At this moment:
—— System Alert: You’ve learned the guild upgrade skill "Grandmaster Level Super Cool" through Soul Link, and the new guild skill "Grandmaster Level Bragging."
Holy shit! Is this guild merging? And there’s a new skill too!
Chun immediately switched to a small account to check, only to hear Medesia beside him scream miserably, while Aimee and Olka on either side groaned mournfully!
Forget it, let’s look at the system prompts.
—— Guild Alert: Congratulations! The Mad Bull Gang has merged their Gang Crystal with the Bragging Gang. The guild level has increased to level 51, the guild skill "Grandmaster Level Bullshit" has upgraded to "Grandmaster Level Super Cool," and gained the new guild skill "Grandmaster Level Bragging"...
—— Grandmaster Level Super Cool: Activates the Overlord Body effect and becomes immune to 90% of damage when life value is below 15% or in a serious injury and weakness state. Attack is additionally increased by 150%, lasts for 15 seconds.
—— Grandmaster Level Bragging: Can only be activated at full health, gaining shield value equal to physical strength and continually restoring existing shield value. Shield defense and recovery speed are related to guild prestige and personal reputation.
...
Chun was dumbfounded, the previous bullshitting skill just increased some stats, but what’s with this new Bragging skill? It’s the first time seeing a skill linked to reputation!
Without disturbing the small account, he switched back to the main account to test it. Sure enough, his shield value increased by over two thousand, layering on the Blasphemous Shield, with a faint glass-like sheen.
Based on the shield value, it’s equivalent to an extra two thousand health, or like having a Paladin cast a shield, nothing too significant, but—
Hmm? Chun was shocked to find that the Blasphemous Shield’s value was actually increasing!
Holy shit, after recklessly losing ten thousand shield value in the slums, it was actually recovering, and at a pace that seemed like having a top-level Continuous Healing Technique! Is this a skill mechanism or a skill bug?
And it wasn’t just Chun who was shocked, the players in the tavern filming Chun’s secret weapon flow also noticed the external shield: "Chun has gained an energy shield!"
Chun instantly snapped back to reality, "Still dare to laugh at my face?"
The other players were shocked, "Brother Chun, is this shield related to your face?"
"Brother Chun, is it related to the NPC just now?"
This is something Chun would never talk about, anyway no one would believe it if he did, might as well let them guess, especially misleading those constantly studying my consortium.
In conclusion, continue to teach this Bragging skill to the current commerce association, let everyone believe I fought with all the major gangs in the slums just to learn a new skill.
