Chapter 115: Bronze Ability & A New Little Monster

After Wang Dong loaded all the job listings into the app, Su Yang sent the download link to the part-timers’ chat group. He told everyone to register with their real names and they would be able to select and complete jobs on the app on their own after that.

Although it started as a part-time job among students, with the official introduction of the app, it raised a lot of interest among the chat group. Astonished, everyone started to install the app out of curiosity and started testing it out.

Su Yang told Deeny to monitor the statistics from the back-end and collect the user feedback.

The next morning, after he woke up, he turned to the [Lucky Disfiguring Brick] that he had taken out the last night.

Ever since he smashed his face the first time, the brick stopped glowing, and now with the cooldown reset, a new layer of luminosity covered it. That meant that Su Yang could ‘torture’ himself once again.

He summoned the system for a quick look. The Bronze Mission that required him to last more than two minutes in the spar with Pan Zhaodi was marked with a “completed” tag.

He earned himself a Bronze Point and the lucky brick was usable again.

Su Yang had a feeling that the moment that would change his life was around the corner again!

He did not want to waste the 30-minute lucky duration like last time. Instead, he called Little Hus and told the husky bolster to search for something to add in the house. Be it a potential Life Evolution item or a special item, either would be fine.

While he waited for Little Hus, he pulled out the holographic panel displaying his phone homepage and started to study the lottery. He also poured himself a glass of water and put one of Sanque’s 1 cm roots inside, intending to use it to heal his face after the smashing.

A while later, Little Hus brought a fruit knife over with both edges of the bolster and hopped to Su Yang. “Su Yang! Su Yang! This! This is good!”

After having worked with Little Hus for many times now, Su Yang knew that he could trust the husky bolster. He took the fruit knife without a second thought.

The fruit knife was around 10 cm long with the blade slightly longer than the handle. It looked and felt like a common fruit knife. Who would have expected that it had the potential to become something good?

Su Yang finally discarded his hesitance after he prepared everything. He grabbed the glass of ginseng water and fruit knife back to his room.

When he went into his room, he brought up his phone homepage and grabbed the [Lucky Disfiguring Brick].

‘Go big or go home!’ he muttered in his heart and smashed his face fiercely with the brick.

Bam!

Blood spewed out in the next moment, Su Yang’s nose felt extremely sore as if it was going to fall off. He had smashed himself harder than the last time, so it hurt even more.

Su Yang had always been a resolute person, whether it was with others or with himself.

After smashing himself with the brick, he endured the pain and glanced at the brick. The timer on the brick had started.

Su Yang finished the glass of ginseng water in a single gulp, and a refreshing stream rose from his stomach to his nose. A moment later, the pain and the soreness were all gone.

He did not waste time checking on his condition. Instead, he summoned the system and tapped on the Bronze Mission.

He muttered in his heart, ‘Eloquence ability! Eloquence ability! Eloquence ability! Brainwashing ability! Brainwashing ability!’

He then tapped on the button to receive his reward.

A while later, the familiar system voice entered his ears once more.

[Bronze Mission Completed. Bronze Point acquired. You can choose one ability from three random options and add the Bronze Point to it.]

After the notification, a window with three options popped up.

[1. Verbal Canon]

[2. Verbal Canon]

[3. Verbal Canon]

‘Three same abilities again! And there are no second options! But, at least, it’s better than the last time This ability seems…related to what I want, I guess? But what in the hell is Verbal Canon? Why isn’t it eloquence or something else? Is Verbal Canon similar to eloquence? Or will I blast a cannonball with my mouth? If that’s the case, well, f**k me.’

Just when Su Yang was wondering what the ability was, the system automatically selected for him. All kinds of talking techniques, bluff techniques, and negotiation techniques were all implanted in Su Yang’s mind.

However, unlike what happened before, Su Yang felt a sense of familiarity.

He realized that while he would occasionally bluff people, he was not that good and it was merely for pranks or jokes.

‘So, this the so-called Verbal Canon¹…it’s something like talking nonsense.’

Soon enough, everything related to the ability was implanted into Su Yang’s mind. He now knew the ways of talking someone into going down the wrong path and how to persuade someone to do what he wanted.

After the knowledge transfer was completed, a new window popped up.

[Randomly acquired three similar abilities. Bonus ability rewarded: Elementary Talent: Charms of Talking.]

‘Charms of talking?’

Su Yang tapped on it.

[Charms of Talking: Your words are more charming and more convincing. People who listen to your words will tend to believe you more.]

‘The [Verbal Canon] is the best match!’

Su Yang had a feeling that this ability was much better and more practical than the guitar-playing ability and the other rewards. With this ability and talent, it would be a waste if he did not become a conman.

‘Am I supposed to tread further on the path of MLM?’

After earning the Bronze Point’s ability, Su Yang put the thought of testing it aside first because the lucky duration was slipping away second by second. He had to seize the moment to add more points!

With that in mind, Su Yang picked up the fruit knife and started the Point System again.

A translucent [+] sign appeared on the fruit knife.

He tapped on it and the fruit knife gleamed, indicating that a point was added.

Su Yang always thought the plain and simple point-adding effect was lame.

‘Can’t the system show something grand or outstanding instead of just a glimmer?’

Right after the thought popped in his mind, his palm suddenly felt painful as if he had been cut by something sharp. He let go of his hand by reflex and the fruit knife fell onto the floor.

When the fruit knife fell on the floor, Su Yang heard a meek ‘ouch!’ in his ears.

He peered down and realized that the fruit knife had plunged into the floor, so only the handle was left sticking out.

The handle had transformed from plastic to a silver metallic material. It looked shiny and grand, but something on the handle did not match the image. There was a small flower carved on it. It seemed like a hunk with a Hello Kitty tattooed on his arm.

Su Yang grabbed the handle and pulled the knife out. The blade had not changed at all.

He shook his head and asked, “Can you speak?”

The meek voice sounded in his ears again, “Yes, I’m speaking. Who are you?”

“I’m Su Yang. Are you the knife in my hand?”

The voice of a girl answered, “I’m in your hand! I can’t see anything! All I know is that something has caught me.”

‘It can’t see me?’ Su Yang sized up the little knife carefully and looked around his room.

‘The room is well-lit, so why can’t it see me? Is something wrong with this little monster’s eyes?’ He could not help but wonder.
