Achievements That Shocked the Night Battle World

"You assigned points like that? I seriously want you dead right now!!"

Ling shouted furiously at Fang Ran, and then one person and one Power Bank started wrestling again!

Fang Ran desperately held it back with both hands, while Ling directly controlled the Power Bank to slap both his hands against Fang Ran's face!

"You idiot, do you know how much longer 1 point of Magic Value could have let you maintain your abilities?!"

"I'm telling you, I absolutely won't do it next time—"

Even with his cheeks pressed down, Fang Ran stubbornly persisted, speaking unclearly.

The Power Bank trembled with rage before Ling finally let him go, cursing internally. This moron!

"What was the ability?"

Ling asked while suppressing her towering fury. No matter how idiotic this guy was, she still had to rely on him to escape, and she still had to put in all this effort to help him. Seriously...

Ling deeply regretted it.

"The special effect? Let me see."

Fang Ran rolled over and climbed back up, then leaned over the interface to look.

"Ding! As the first participant to assign the maximum value to Appearance Value, Achievement Ability Attempt-9 has been completed."

"Ding! Magic Wand updated."

"Ding! Values reset."

"Ding! Special effect determined."

Then Fang Ran found the description of the special effect at the end—a remarkably simple line of text.

You can make one of your attribute values ×2.

"It says it can make one of my attribute values ×2, and then I completed an achievement." Fang Ran said carelessly, then let out a breath of relief. Thankfully, the special effect was pretty normal. It hadn't randomly given him some bullshit. Honestly, the last two draws had really scared Fang Ran.

"What!? What did you say?!"

Ling froze for a moment, then directly rammed into Fang Ran's cheek!

"Pfft!"

"Give me permission! Let me see!"

"You punched me first."

The Power Bank pulled away from Fang Ran's cheek, then received permission and saw Fang Ran's current interface.

Ling fell silent.

"Well? Say something. Is my passive any good? And I completed an achievement too. Achievements must be easy for beginners, right? Though those big shots have probably already completed every achievement, haven't they?"

At that moment, Fang Ran kept chattering beside her without any sense of self-preservation. Ling glanced at him, recalling the information she had once found in Night Web's data.

Night Battles Achievement System.

Night Battle Participants could complete achievements by fulfilling certain conditions.

Those who completed achievements could obtain astonishing abilities.

The last achievement holder recorded on Night Web...

Had been two hundred seventy-two years ago.

By now, ninety-nine percent of Night Battle Participants did not even know that Night Battles had achievements.

As for Ling, watching this idiot assume he had completed some beginner achievement and feel nothing about it, her heart suddenly filled with complicated emotions.

It was not as though no one had searched for clues. Those few standing at the very top had all tried to obtain such things.

But no one had expected that one of the achievements closest to everyone would actually be like this?!

Yet Ling understood that this was not because anyone had been careless or lacked the spirit of adventure. After risking their lives to obtain Night Battle Participant permissions and learning how much even 1 point could strengthen them, no one would choose something as useless as Appearance Value. Even if they wanted to try it later, Appearance Value could only be assigned once.

No one had expected it.

What shocked Ling even more was the special effect Fang Ran had obtained. It also made her fully believe that completing achievements could grant someone astonishing abilities.

You can make one of your attribute values ×2.

It was only one simple line, yet Ling found it difficult to remain calm. Her Psionic Photon Core had once possessed nearly perfect values, and its special effect had been to overload all of her technological methods.

That bug-like ability, which temporarily enhanced all her strength, had allowed Ling to accomplish many impossible things.

But after seeing Fang Ran's special effect, Ling realized that her ability was probably still lacking.

No matter how powerful her ability was, it only enhanced the manifestation of her abilities for a certain period of time.

But abilities like Fang Ran's, which directly interfered with the fundamental values of one's own foundation without any time limit...

In all of Night Web, she had never heard of such a thing!

"How is this possible..."

Within her data soul, Ling murmured in stunned disbelief.

She lightly bit her lip, knowing that an earthquake was about to strike the Night Battle world, because...

At this very moment...

A notification rang out beside the ears of everyone around the world who possessed Night Battle Participant permissions!

"Ding! Night Battle Achievement Ability Attempt-9 completed, congratulations!"

"You are one step closer to becoming stronger."

The Night Battle world shook!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Meanwhile, Fang Ran, the person who had caused the Night Battle world to tremble, stared blankly at his Power Bank without knowing anything. Curious about why it had suddenly stopped talking, he worried that it might be broken.

"Hey, hey!! Xiao Mi?? Mi? Hello, hello!! Fuck, don't tell me it's out of power?"

Fang Ran looked shocked and hurriedly found a charging cable, planning to charge it.

"Get lost! If you dare stick that thing in me, I'll fight you to the death!!!"

Just as Fang Ran was about to charge the Power Bank, Ling finally came back to her senses and immediately stopped his improper behavior!

"Uh, don't you need charging?" Fang Ran asked awkwardly.

Ling instantly choked on her anger and glared viciously at Fang Ran with her little fangs clenched, though Fang Ran could only see the mi logo on Xiao Mi Power Bank's casing.

"Oh right, you still haven't told me whether my passive is any good." Fang Ran quickly changed the subject and asked what he actually cared about.

Ling fell silent for a moment, then curled her lips into a mischievous little devil's smile.

"It's average. Not particularly strong, but not trash either. You should have felt that yourself, right?"

"Mm-hmm, true. The description says attribute value ×2, but it does feel a little less badass. It's too ordinary." Fang Ran nodded thoughtfully while stroking his chin. Ling immediately felt stabbed in the heart. He thought that description was ordinary? Want to trade it for mine?!

"What about the achievement?" Fang Ran persistently asked, like a newbie gamer seeking advice from a pro.

"It's just an achievement. It's useless, so don't worry about it."

Ling casually brushed him off, but after saying that, her chest still ached. Yet seeing Fang Ran's utterly clueless expression, Ling suddenly did not want to tell him any of this.

Curled up in a corner of the data space, Ling helplessly covered her face. Her own stupidity and arrogance had abruptly landed her in desperate straits.

"Achievement... The final achievement of Achievement Ability Attempt actually had such a ridiculous condition, and it just had to be obtained by someone like him."

"Oh, right!"

As if suddenly remembering something exciting, Fang Ran pointed at one of the lines and said:

"Hey! It says my Magic Wand was updated, and my attributes seem to have been reset too!"

"Hm?"

Hearing Fang Ran's voice, Ling, who had just learned that Fang Ran had stepped in enormous dog shit and was feeling somewhat listless because only she knew the truth but could not tell him, gave a distracted hum and casually summoned his exclusive weapon page. But at that moment...

Fang Ran's belt suddenly flashed with pale blue system-resetting light. With a flicker of blue, its former cheap, crudely made appearance—the kind bought for twenty-five yuan—began to reshape.

The metal buckle gleamed and stretched into an elegant, exquisite silver dragon coiled around the sword hilt, as though crafted by Tian Gong himself. The ordinary leather portion completely vanished!

Clack, clack, clack!

A dense series of unknown metal pieces biting together rang out. Like a dragon's spine, sharp and smooth segments of intricate, precise joints began forming and locking together, constructing a slender, elongated blade. The fully transformed "belt" appeared before Fang Ran.

Like a sword, yet not a sword. As silver-white steel appeared in the world once more...

It looked like a work of art created by uncanny craftsmanship.

At the same time, the interface flashed. Before one person and one Power Bank, an earth-shaking change appeared.

Fang Ran's exclusive Magic Wand—Silver Severing Dragon Tooth.

Attack Value: 20
Magic Value: 19
Defense Value: 15
Speed Value: 17
Appearance Value: Maxed Out

One person and one Power Bank: "."

After a long while, only Fang Ran burst into profanity!

"FUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
