Chapter 22 System
"Welcome, Chen Lai, welcome to the system."

Qing Bingke's mature and sophisticated voice came from the other side of the screen. At this moment, she was sitting in the office with a bored expression, twirling the pen in her hand, so her voice had a hint of laziness.

"No, isn't there four departments at Deep Sea University? How can you be so sure I'm in one of them?" Surrounded by two muscular men, Chen Lai felt a little strange.

"Didn't you choose Heaven and Curse when you entered the dungeon? How could you get a different talent through talent inheritance?"

"Since it's a curse from heaven, it must be a system. Don't think about it, junior brother. Just focus on enrolling."

Qingbing stretched, her beautiful curves still visible on the other side of the screen.

Chen Lai remained silent. Did they only inherit the equipment they bought when they entered the dungeon, instead of inheriting multiple talents like he did?

"Stop thinking about it, brother. You made the right choice by joining the system. I've seen that Heaven and Curse, it's worth 150,000. Although it's not particularly outstanding among all the high-powered big shots, it's not bad to absorb it to its limit!"

“Hmm, 150,000 B-level weapons are at their limit. Being a provincial or municipal civil affairs official is no problem.” Yovali patted Chen Lai on the shoulder.

Chen Lai remained silent for a moment before turning to the two muscular men: "Senior brothers, what talents did you inherit when you created this game?"

This question seemed to activate a switch. Jia Xiu swung his right arm in a circle, grabbed his right wrist with his left hand, and turned his back to Chen Lai, stretching the muscles in his back.

“I inherited Pike’s ancient blood, which is worth 50 in [Baki]!” Jia Xiu said with great pride.

"I inherited Baki Hanma's demon blood, which is worth 80 in Baki!" Yovali looked very proud, his demon back staring at Chen Lai like a human face.

"So expensive? That's several times more expensive than what I paid for my initial combat gear." Chen Lai clicked his tongue in surprise, and was also a little curious. "So, if that's the case, Senior Brother Yovali, you should be stronger than Senior Brother Jia Xiu, right?"

"I knew you'd think that! After all, he's a newbie, hahaha!"

It seems that his muscles are affecting his brain, or perhaps the ancient blood is influencing Jia Xiu's temperament; his emotions are always very intense.

"Actually, Yoval is no match for me now, because his system is too underdeveloped!"

"Or perhaps, its purity isn't high enough!"

As he spoke, Jia Xiu poked Yovalee's ghost back with his finger. With just that one poke, Yovalee's Poss immediately lost its grip, the ghost back trembled and loosened, and he collapsed to the ground.

Jia Xiu clapped his hands, his muscles rippled like ocean waves, and finally returned to calm.

"See? My Ancient Blood is far more developed than his. As long as I continue to absorb the [System Unique Items] from other dungeons, my potential will also be higher than his!"

"A unique item in the system?" Chen Lai seemed to understand a little. The previous [Prison Gate] was marked as [Unique].

"Oh~ it seems our seal guide didn't give you a complete introduction to our power system. That's really a dereliction of duty, darling."

Jia Xiu quickly changed several bodybuilding competition poses before rapidly pulling up an image showing the admission criteria and advancement guidelines for the four major systems. [Fantasy System: Any ability not manifested physically, originating from some kind of magical power, can be classified as Fantasy. Typical examples: Tremor-Tremor Fruit, Overlord's Egg]

【Eye-type: Any eye mutation that grants special eye techniques can be classified as an eye-type. Typical examples: Sharingan, Mystic Eyes of Death Perception】

[System: Any physical mutation that grants unique physical enhancements can be classified as a system. Typical examples include: Ancient Blood, Martial Arts Blood, and Blood of Demons and Gods.]

[Boost type: Anything that relies on external objects, whether pets or weapons, can be classified as a boost type. Typical examples: Imperial Arms, Zanpakuto, Pokémon]

To enhance one's abilities, one must acquire a construct that does not conflict with one's innate abilities and use it to specialize in those abilities. For example, fusing the Sharingan with the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception, making Death Perception the primary ability and the Sharingan secondary, thus achieving an evolution of the eye system.

……

One successful build after another appeared before Chen Lai, making him feel increasingly strange. It seemed that all the players inherited single abilities from the dungeon, and they were all talents that they bought when entering the dungeon... There was no situation like his, where he brought a living person from the dungeon and ended up with two conflicting talents.

Chen Lai wasn't the type to be pretentious, nor was he willing to hide anything he didn't understand; he would ask questions if he didn't know something.

"Senior brother, is it possible for a person to possess two abilities simultaneously? What happens if these two abilities conflict?"

"Also, what exactly is the use of inherited talents? Will we receive extra preparations when entering the instance?"

Chen Lai's question made Jia Xiu smile slightly. The other man patted Chen Lai's head twice with his large hand, and then a thunderous laugh rang out.

"You're much better than those kids who're hiding their talents! It's certainly possible for one person to inherit multiple talents, but for a Deep Sea player with limited energy, the best option is to strengthen only one!"

"Especially if your two abilities conflict, it's best to make a choice."

"As you've probably noticed, after bringing back items marked 'Unique' from the dungeon, we gain the ability to retain our talents. These retained talents will modify our bodies, making us 'more alike' with ourselves in the dungeon!"

"However, this convergence is extremely slow. You have to abide by the reality of our world. The power you have in the game may only be able to spill a glass of water or chase away a cat in reality... Only by constantly absorbing unique items of the same type can this ability gradually become stronger until it overlaps with your inner self in the deep sea!"

As Jia Xiu spoke, he showcased his "Deep Sea Journey." Chen Lai watched and discovered that this senior had joined Deep Sea University five years ago, when he had just won the "Tenkaichi Martial Arts Tournament Trophy" from the "Baki" dungeon.

Later, he continuously participated in various dungeons where unique items appeared, participated in major events, and seized unique items three times, which led to his current physical strength.

"No wonder, no wonder everyone was so crazy about grabbing the [Prison Gate]... By the way, senior brother, there's another question you haven't answered. Now that we've become extraordinary in reality, will we get any special treatment in the game?"

Chen Lai asked curiously, but then saw a pair of large hands reach out, and Jia Xiu's expression turned very serious:

"No, Deepsea Games is fair to everyone. Real-world abilities only give you greater responsibility. In the game, all players can only purchase the same equipment, use the same weapons, and participate in major events under the same rules!"

"As for us extraordinary individuals in reality, we possess power, but we also have corresponding missions—"

As he spoke, Jia Xiu raised his hand above his head and pointed his finger at the colliding Earths!
