Although this suit could withstand 12.7 mm BMG rounds, which was already ridiculously impressive, Wang Zhen still felt it wasn't perfect.

He could actually exchange reward points and side-story plots with the Main God for something better. However, he still had quite a bit of knowledge to sort through and organize. In other words, he didn't yet know what he was lacking, so he wanted to wait a little longer. Besides, his side-story plots weren't high enough in rank to get him anything truly good.

He'd better wait a little longer. His strength was already pretty good. As long as he didn't get reckless, there was a good chance he wouldn't die!

Though, in theory, vampires of Alucard's bloodline were hard to kill, this was Infinite Space. Better to play it safe. Who knew what kind of weird stuff might show up and kill him in an instant!

"Like that one mission I took before. Who would've thought that mild-mannered gentleman, who'd driven for twenty years without a single traffic violation, was actually a demonic butcher who killed people and carved them up? If I hadn't happened to bring a powerful tranquilizer dart, I'd have been done for!" Though Wang Zhen was in a very good mood, he couldn't help imagining himself charging in with a pair of guns, killing everyone in sight so no one could see him—perfect Stealth. But after taking a few deep breaths, he forced himself to calm down.

It was an illusion!

Wang Zhen forced himself to calm down and steady his nerves. After a while, he began sorting through the knowledge again. There was a lot of it, but much was incomplete, as if it had been torn from some book. The truly complete material, along with the knowledge he thought would be useful to him, accounted for only about one percent, by his estimate.

Wang Zhen could only comfort himself: If you were getting stuff for free by mooching, what more could you ask for?

Once Wang Zhen finished sorting through the knowledge, he took a close look at the parts that were useful to him. There were still only the same few items; nothing had been added. It was downright bizarre!

"Mooching? Heh..."

"Trying to mooch off the Gate of Truth?"

"I really am an honest, simple man!" Wang Zhen stared blankly at the sky and said in a hollow voice.

No wonder Wang Zhen was complaining. The first time he'd used a Transmutation Circle to contact the Gate of Truth, he'd gained some knowledge of Transmutation Circles and the ability to perform them instantly, letting him soar through the plot world. The second time, he'd tried to mooch even more. And because Alucard's blood was so rare, the Gate of Truth had given him a vast amount of knowledge, making him think he'd gotten away with it.

Now he understood!

What he received was what he truly desired. The rest was knowledge too, but as he'd said himself, he was just mooching for free. Did he expect to casually walk away with hundreds of kilograms of gold as well?

Still, it wasn't as if the knowledge was useless. If Wang Zhen mastered it, it would be incredibly valuable, too!

"Master, do you want the mysterious-side materials from the Main God? I found some over here, though they don't cost many side-story plots. Also, I changed into a new outfit. See if it suits your taste?" Selene walked over and spoke softly.

"Whoa..."

"The 3D world couldn't do without Tifa, just as the West couldn't do without... Jerusalem!"

"You've got guts! You even changed into Tifa's look!"

"I didn't dare give you the Tifa look right from the start. I was afraid you'd beat me up. After all, Tifa is a god in the 3D world!" Wang Zhen sprang from the reclining chair to the floor. He looked her over carefully from head to toe, then from toe to head. In the end...

Wang Zhen was sure. This was Tifa!

A black dress, long black hair, bright, lively eyes, and a heroic bearing!

When sweet, she was Cloud's warm harbor and the gentlest big sister to the orphans.

When fierce, she was a core member of the anti-Shinra organization Avalanche. She could smash heads with her Iron Fist and kick birds with her divine legs. Hojo, Sephiroth—she'd take them all down. She'd never hide behind everyone else and yell, "666!" She was always the one charging into battle, the team's powerhouse!

Tifa had the classic angelic face and devilish figure: arched brows, almond-shaped eyes, an oval face, a delicate nose and thin lips, and a waterfall of black hair. Her figure was well-proportioned, with sizzling curves. With her eyes wide open, her gaze was cold and imposing, like autumn frost and winter snow; when she narrowed them, her eyes rippled like spring water, like a breeze in spring or moonlight in summer.

"I think you should keep your distance from me! You're close enough for me to report you as a train pervert!" Tifa—when you changed the person, you changed the name too, and of course Tifa needed a new name—looked at Wang Zhen and said impatiently.

"Sorry! I'd only ever seen pictures before, or at most cosplayers who were no more than thirty percent accurate! No one else looked one hundred percent like you! Of course I had to get a closer look!" Wang Zhen took a few steps back and apologized.

Wang Zhen really was incredibly excited!

From what he could tell, this wasn't cosplay at all. The Main God had used the information it had on Tifa to reshape her and change her face!

So this really was Tifa!

"Please give me another 1,000 reward points!"

When he heard Tifa, Wang Zhen didn't even ask why. He immediately gave her 2,000 reward points!

Don't get the wrong idea!

They were for Tifa to use at the Main God to exchange for materials!

"Wang Zhen, there are a few things in this batch of materials that I marked out. You can take a closer look."

"World of Warcraft enchanting, jewelcrafting, inscription, and alchemy? Rune Words from Diablo 2?" Wang Zhen looked at the items marked as important and fell into thought.

The techniques Tifa had suggested were indeed some of the most widely applicable, with plenty of room to grow. Wang Zhen was tempted, but when he saw the exchange prices, he immediately came to his senses!

World of Warcraft enchanting: 1 B-rank side-story plot, 5,000 reward points.

World of Warcraft jewelcrafting: 1 B-rank side-story plot, 5,000 reward points.

World of Warcraft alchemy: 1 B-rank side-story plot, 5,000 reward points.

World of Warcraft inscription: 1 B-rank side-story plot, 5,000 reward points.

Diablo 2 Rune Words: 1 A-rank side-story plot, 8,000 reward points.

Wang Zhen had to admit they weren't expensive, because these techniques really were useful! He just didn't have enough cash in his pockets to learn them. Now he could only pin his hopes on the Golden Blind Box!

After all, he'd insisted on improving his body before, and then Alucard's blood had appeared in the Golden Blind Box.

If he insisted on wanting these techniques again, could he get them this time? Wang Zhen couldn't help indulging in wishful thinking.

It was like someone who found a dead rabbit beside a tree stump, took it home, and cooked a delicious rabbit stew. Then the next day, he went back to wait beside that same tree stump for another rabbit to come along and die against it—preferably falling right in front of him. Better yet, if it tied itself up before dying, that'd be even more convenient!

He'd even worked out how to cook the rabbit...
