"Calculation complete. Please continue."
After viewing the rating review, an announcement rang in Feng Bujue's ears.
"Your title has been updated to—Unpredictable Zealot.
"You've reached level 19. Maximum Stamina Points increased to 1,900/1,900."
"This title doesn't sound that positive…" Feng Bujue mumbled to himself. He opened the menu to check the ability of his title. The original A Strategic Victory had been replaced. The new skill was still an active skill, but the effect…
———
Name: Kyaa!
Skill Type: Active
Consumption: ???
Effect: Player can select any unlocked mastery and randomly activate an active skill from said mastery school. (Cooldown time is ten minutes, and the consumption is dependent on the effect of the skill used. The random skill will not be greater than the limitation to the player's level and ability.)
Remark: Madness is the shortcut to unlocking one's potential!

"Self-castration is also a shortcut for Dong Fang Bu Bao to learn the most powerful martial ability!" Feng Bujue mocked the remark. "Isn't this Togepi's Metronome? But even Metronome has a chance of unleashing Hyper Beam! What is this limitation according to my level and ability‽"
But to be honest, it was better than nothing. Ever since he obtained A Strategic Victory, Feng Bujue had encountered more than a handful of weird bosses. Either they were invisible, or they were bosses like Mr. Yoo. Even if there were normal bosses, he somewhat managed to avoid them. At least this new skill could be used in battle. When facing an enemy, if he used Kyaa! and chose to fight, it would be of some use, right?
It was around 11:20 pm. Feng Bujue glanced at the social tab and noticed that both Laughing Soul and Passing Rain had already gone offline. His friend list was a slate of gray. At this time, players who entered the game in non-sleeping mode would have logged off to reenter the game in sleeping mode. Feng Bujue prepared to do so as well. After gaining his reward, he pressed the elevator button. Once the door opened, he strode into the storage.
"Now that I think about it… I sure lost plenty in these last two scenarios." As he inspected the game menu, he walked to the nearby glass tube. "I did increase some mastery levels, increasing Sorcery to Level E in the scenario where I ran into the Anomaly, and my Medic mastery also strangely levelled up in the scenario earlier…"
"Please select your additional reward: 1, random draw of equipment corresponding to your current level; 2, 50,000 Game Coins; 3, 7,600 EXP."
"Even with the additional EXP, I'm still far away from levelling up. Hmm… I'll get another piece of equipment then." Feng Bujue still had not learned from his previous lesson. After the white light pooled, it materialized into the shape of a gun, and this gave Brother Jue quite a shock.
———
Name: Mad Moxxi's Bad Touch
Item Type: Weapon
Quality: Excellent
Offense Points: Medium
Element: Fire
Special Effect: Particularly suitable for the destruction of flesh.
Equip Requirement: Marksmanship D, Workmanship E
Remark: The high temperature of the gun is not an effect of overheating. The constant vibration is not a sign of fault. In any case… don't worry much when you use it.
———
Feng Bujue picked up the weapon and had a casual expression on his face. He ignored the remark with a hidden meaning. "Fine… At least I now have a nine mm SMG assault rifle, better than nothing…"
He walked to the second glass tube to obtain the reward for clearing the scenario.
———
Name: Goblin's Poison Mask
Item Type: Weapon
Quality: Excellent
Offense Points: Slightly Weak
Element: Poison
Special Effect: When breathing or speaking, can poison all adjacent targets. (This effect is automatically activated and can be used when the facial equipment is hidden from view.)
Equip Requirement: Workmanship D, \u003e Level 17
Remark: Everyone will die, but medical insurance ensures that at least you die at the hospital. However, if your medical fees are too expensive, perhaps a stranger in a mask will come visit you… After all, the insurance personnel at Goblin Insurance Company are not known for their morality.

"Haha…" Feng Bujue obtained two excellent quality pieces of equipment consecutively, but he didn't appear that happy. He held the gun, wore the mask, and returned to the elevator. Seeing his reflection in the mirror, that whole image… basically… he alternated between a crazed murderer or a mad terrorist.
"Unpredictable Zealot, it's surprisingly fitting…" Even the man himself thought that the new title matched his appearance. After completing another Solo Nightmare Mode, Feng Bujue checked his current status.

Honestly, his stats were very powerful. Compared to other players under level twenty, his equipment and masteries were all impressive. He was weaker in terms of skills, but it was already good enough.
Of course, this was merely a comparison on paper. It did not mean much in a real fight. If he entered a 1v1 Killing Game and encountered a level nineteen player, things would be completely different. Any player from a gaming studio with a focus on marksmanship or fighting could beat Feng Bujue.
That was what combat was. The strong might not win, but the winner would be the stronger one.
After gaining his reward, Feng Bujue went offline. He had other chores to complete like purchasing a new type of ammo, visiting the market, and going to the Thriller Box to check whether the One-Shot-Kill Pistol had arrived there. But he planned to do these things in sleeping mode to save time.
