NOVEL NEXT Chapter 14
Chapter 14: Awakening of Strange Attributes! Truly My Little Cotton-Padded Jacket
…
At Night—
Xu Hao didn’t have many hobbies, but he especially loved street racing.
He chose a cool car and drove alone to the Autumn Mountains
This car was as exquisite as jade, extremely well-maintained, and brand new…
The headlights were top-notch, and the rear of the car was as smooth as possible, making it a top-of-the-line urban SUV.
As Xu Hao got into the car, he found the interior was luxurious, with smooth leather and perfectly configured.
The only downside was the cramped space inside the car, which felt burdensome.
After getting used to it, he turned the key…
When he started the engine, he could feel it shaking, and the soundproofing effect was somewhat average.
He slowly accelerated to 3600 rpm, the car’s body was clearly shaking, accompanied by noise…
With Xu Hao’s driving skills, this car was simply a perfect match.
He gripped the steering wheel with both hands. He pressed the gas pedal hard, and started the car with a frictional start.
He directly accelerated to 360 miles per hour.
The stunning luxury car left the other racers in the dust, and the drivers on the road looked bewildered.
Because the speed was so fast, the others couldn’t see clearly; they only saw a streak of car shadows passing by…
A question popped into their mind: What the hell just flew over their face?
…
[Ding! Su Wanqiu feels angry, obtained 123 emotion points]
[Ding! Su Wanqiu feels embarrassed and indignant, obtained 999 emotion points]
Xu Hao looked at the system prompts and felt slightly surprised.
Because of embarrassment, it gave him 999 emotion points, which made sense.
After all, there were still people at home…
Su Wanqiu was reluctant initially, but couldn’t resist Xu Hao.
However, it was suspicious… why had her anger toward him decreased so much?
What was going on?
Not only this prompt, but the number of prompts for anger and hatred had also decreased.
Xu Hao immediately looked at Su Wanqiu and checked her attribute panel, astonished.
Originally, the “-66” goodwill had changed to “-52”, which was an increase, right?
His eyes suddenly became strange.
Besides this time, he had done it several times without her consent.
Yet, her favorability didn’t decrease, it actually increased.
Ah, this… It seems like some strange attributes have awakened…
[Ding! Xu Shiqing feels resentful, obtained 555 emotion points]
[Ding! Xu Shiqing feels resentful, obtained 555 emotion points]
Unexpectedly, Su Wanqiu contributed a lot of emotion points tonight.
The two daughters had nothing less than her. Truly, they were his little cotton-padded jackets…
…
Xu Hao looked at the emotion points on the system panel and found more than 40,000.
He could draw four times.
Why wait?
“Lucky draw, lucky draw.”
[Ding! Congratulations, Host, you have drawn—10 points of free attributes…]
[Ding! Congratulations, Host, you have drawn—10 points of free attributes…]
[Ding! Congratulations, Host, you have drawn a reward—Skill: Hand-to-Hand Combat (Master Level)…]
(Skill levels are divided into Proficient, Master, Grandmaster, and Divine.)
Swipe—
The next moment, his brain felt a slight pain.
A flood of knowledge about combat rushed into his mind.
These memories seemed to be engraved in his brain as if he had truly practised for over a decade…
The most important thing was that Xu Hao felt he could use them skillfully without any abnormalities.
By drawing this skill, Xu Hao finally felt that he had a bit of self-protection.
Relying on external forces was illusory; having strength in oneself was the real security…
Although this was a province, unlike other countries, shootings weren’t an everyday occurrence, and killing was illegal.
But, what if, one day, the plot suddenly triggered, and a group of criminals kidnapped him?
Moreover, he still had the aura of the destined villain, destined to fight with the protagonist to the death…
What if the protagonist didn’t follow the plot one day, and wanted to kill him even if it was illegal?
That would be ridiculous.
Considering his cautiousness, he wouldn’t provoke the protagonist until he had the power to defend himself.
Otherwise, when he encountered that protagonist yesterday, he wouldn’t have just left without testing the waters…
At this thought, Xu Hao’s mind stirred slightly.
He added all 20 points of free attributes to strength.
He had previously added attributes to his physique, assuming the rebellious protagonist wouldn’t appear for another two and a half years.
But unexpectedly, this was a fusion novel world.
Yesterday, he met a protagonist, and his favorability was naturally negative.
Xu Hao understood the situation.
Increasing their physique and making himself younger was important, but life was more important…
Without life, there was nothing.
With his current physique, lasting in bed for seven rounds wasn’t a problem.
Therefore, he wasn’t in such a hurry.
After the protagonist’s threat was over, adding some physique wouldn’t be too late.
As for becoming younger, getting the female lead to like him would be easier.
Was this important?
What was his status?
Did he need to please the female lead deliberately? Make changes for the female lead?
At the moment, he felt a familiar warmth spread through his body…
When the warmth disappeared, his strength doubled again, reaching 42.
The surge in strength excited Xu Hao a bit, and he felt like he could knock out an ox with one punch.
With the increase in strength, coupled with the master-level combat skill he drew…
Even if the protagonist from yesterday wanted to kill him, it wouldn’t be so easy.
And if he couldn’t kill him with one blow, relying on his power and position, he could definitely toy with the other party to death.
Through the system, he learned that the strength value needed to represent strength fully.
Many factors determine one’s strength.
Your strength, physique, and the skills you have mastered, as well as the environment during battle, and so on…
Xu Hao’s eyes flashed and he decided to strike while the iron was hot. There was one more chance for a lucky draw.
“Give it to me.”
[Ding! Congratulations, Host, you have drawn a reward—Skill: Painting (Grandmaster Level)]
The slight pain in his brain was stronger than before, and he gained a great deal of knowledge about painting.
Xu Hao mastered what others might not achieve in decades in just a moment.
Now, as long as he had a paint brush, he could draw a masterpiece.
But Xu Hao was expressionless at this moment.
Good news: A Grandmaster-level skill has been obtained.
Bad news: The skill is painting.
The idea of painting was too beautiful to imagine…
Overall, the harvest from this lucky draw was pretty good.
Looking at the emotion points once again bottomed out, Xu Hao felt he wasn’t satisfied. He wasn’t nearly enough, and he had to continue to strive.
So he looked to the side, to the protagonist’s stepmother who was still panting and hadn’t recovered yet…
