Others can also learn, after all, in the world of counterattacks, one can live to an old age.
Thinking of this, Lin Ya suddenly felt very good.
He hadn’t opened the system shop interface in a while.
Host: Lin Ya
Counterattack Value: 1000
Points: 3
Combat Power: 9 (unlimited)
System Skills: None
System Gold Finger: None
[Host! Do you want to buy something?] 123 was flattering and eager to please.
[Recently, there’s a discount event!~]
It’s not surprising that it was so servile; the host had promised to buy it a new appearance!
Lin Ya noticed that his panel was slightly different from before and was taken aback.
[123, what is the use of the counterattack value?]
[Host, the counterattack value can unlock a learning space, which can be used to learn system skills. For example, if you buy a martial arts manual in the system shop, you can use the counterattack value to unlock the learning space, where a teacher will be generated to explain the lesson to you.] It felt a bit guilty because if the host had not asked, it would have forgotten to mention this point.
[Is there a commonly used skill in the system shop? For example, learning how to fly planes or ships…]
[Yes, ordinary skills are very cheap. Usually, learning one, especially if it’s a basic skill, only costs 10 points, and unlocking the learning space with the counterattack value costs 100 points, which takes only about a minute in reality.]
Lin Ya looked at his pitiful 3 points and fell into silence.
He tentatively asked: [123, can points… be on credit?]
[… No, host.]
While scrolling through the dazzling array of products in the system shop, Lin Ya could only look enviously.
However, running out of points was unavoidable.
Another day passed uneasily.
The cruise ship stood quietly on the surface of the ocean, dark and ominous, resembling a ghost ship.
If someone boarded the ship and saw the bloodstained drag marks, they would be so frightened they might find it hard to move.
After two days of slaughter, only 300 people remained from the original 1000 on the ship, more than half of whom were bloody killers.
The only lucky person who had a gun, and also the only one who had managed to hide and avoid the killing, was the thief Harisman, who could no longer resist his hunger and stealthily came out to look for food.
“Damn it! The promised airdrop is late! Stupid pigs! I wasted my trip!” Before boarding, they had assured that there would be an airdrop of food every three days at night.
But he had been fooled.
Harisman grumbled quietly as he walked towards the ship’s rear, preparing to return to his safe room, when he unexpectedly heard the sound of a speedboat. He crouched down and looked below, spotting a faint flashlight and the figures of three people preparing to board the ship.
He squinted and watched carefully until he heard—
“…If this ship doesn’t sink, I think your family will go to hell because of you. Do you understand me, buddy?” A man in a black suit was pointing a machine gun at the trembling captain, urging him to hurry.
“…?!” Harisman, hiding nearby, widened his eyes; this was not what had been promised.
He came to seize an opportunity for money, not to seek death! If it weren’t for his friends conspiring and telling him the location of the guns, he wouldn’t have participated in this event.
Seeing the captain pushed upwards by the man in the black suit, Harisman took out the pistol from his waist, focusing on the remaining black suits on the ship, and formulated a plan.
Taking advantage of the dark night, he hid to the side and opened fire at the captain’s head as soon as the captain and the man in the black suit came up.
“Bang!” The deafening gunshot echoed across the sea.
“Don’t! Don’t kill me!” The captain fell to the ground in terror, scrambling backward with hands and feet.
Harisman picked up the machine gun from the ground, aimed it at the dimly lit speedboat below, and fired a barrage of bullets.
Until those below fell onto the speedboat, he kicked the captain, “Hey! What do you mean by sinking the ship?”
The captain was silent for a moment before answering, “The whole world knows…”
After explaining, Harisman finally understood what it meant. He couldn’t help but gasp, “My God! Is what you said true?! How can there be such a magical thing?”
He mumbled in disbelief, “Then my money is gone too?! I have to run quickly!”
As others began to gather around, attracted by the noise, Harisman directly took the gun and jumped off the ship, disregarding the captain’s pleas, and sped away in the speedboat.
[This guy is incredible; when in trouble, he just runs!]
[There are so many magical things; this guy actually had a gun. It seems he hasn’t been in the spotlight before, could he have been hiding all this time?]
[He has appeared before, previously when he got a gun, but he wasn’t seen killing anyone. He must have been waiting to come out at the last moment.]
[Fortunately, he didn’t come out; otherwise, we would have been in trouble if we crossed paths with him.]
[At least at night, aside from our cameras, the other one pointed at the ship, otherwise, we wouldn’t have seen such exciting scenes.]
[The one who died boarded from the outside; according to this old man, was he here to kill and silence people?]
[Damn, good thing this guy took out the one with the machine gun; otherwise, we would have been finished. No matter how skilled Brother Shen is, he can’t catch bullets…]
[But he didn’t kill this old man. What if the old man takes the ship and sinks it??]
[Uh… I want to say that Brother Shen and the others are still in the captain’s room…]
[That guy in the black suit with the machine gun isn’t here for Brother Shen, right?]
[Died well! Died wonderfully!]
[That guy, we all remember you!]
[Safe travels, buddy—]
Harisman, speeding away in the speedboat, let out a loud sneeze.
Lin Ya watched the barrage with amusement, but he also didn’t expect such a turn of events.
This person could indeed be called lucky; managing to avoid danger until now, not only having a gun but also encountering someone on a speedboat at midnight, he just happened to handle the situation and decisively fled in the speedboat after learning the consequences were beyond anticipation.
