After gaining a basic understanding of the situation, Zhuang Yusen left.
Before leaving, he gestured for Yu Wuyi not to move around too much for the time being, lest he overdraw his body.
Whew... I finally muddled through that.
Yu Wuyi let out a sigh of relief. He wasn't sure how much Zhuang Yusen had believed of that performance just now. After all, he'd never been a girl before.
He could only rely on instinct to imitate Firefly's usual way of speaking as closely as possible.
However...
The constant pain and weakness coursing through his body made him furrow his delicate brows.
This body was far too weak right now. Even walking was difficult. He probably wouldn't be able to use Sam for the time being, either.
But if he couldn't transform into Sam, how was he supposed to return to Wuyi All-Purpose House? Ask those old-timers for help?
[Why don't you try the lottery?]
The system suddenly spoke up.
Yu Wuyi raised a brow, an interested expression appearing on his face.
"What are you plotting this time, you damn system?"
he asked inwardly.
But the system didn't answer him. It seemed that only under certain circumstances would it suddenly appear and tell him something he wanted to know.
And every time, its timing was remarkably "coincidental."
"Playing mute again. You're like this every time. I'm starting to think you're doing it on purpose."
But given the current situation, he really couldn't think of any other solution besides following the system's suggestion.
Name: Firefly · Sam (Yu Wuyi) Age: Don't ask about a young girl's age! Cultivation: None Martial Soul: None Identity: Wuyi All-Purpose House Executor Roleplay Progress: 20% Commission Coins: 110
Perhaps because he was currently in a roleplaying state, his identity information had changed to Firefly.
That didn't stop him from looking thoroughly baffled.
This information was rather perfunctory. The only useful piece of information seemed to be the title of Wuyi All-Purpose House Executor.
It was a position that even Yu Wuyi, the owner himself, knew nothing about.
[Executor: A position that can help the owner complete customer commissions.]
The system's explanation arrived.
Yet that explanation only left him even more confused. There was only one owner in the entire all-purpose house, and this Firefly was someone he himself was roleplaying as.
This position seemed rather redundant.
"So does that mean I can recruit Executors myself?"
If that was the case, it would indeed be much more convenient.
[No.]
Then what was the point of this position? Was it just there to look good?
Seeing the system fall silent again, Yu Wuyi knew full well that if it didn't want to speak, it simply wouldn't. So he let it be.
One draw cost fifty Commission Coins. With 110, he could only do two single pulls...
The value of a ten-pull for 400 was undoubtedly much better, but now that he could barely even walk, he had no room to choose.
"System, give me a single pull!"
He could only hope this single pull gave him something useful.
[50 Commission Coins consumed. Drawing item... Congratulations, Host. You have drawn a Limitless Technique Ability Card!]
"What card?!"
This pull stunned Yu Wuyi. Originally, he'd hoped to draw something that could alleviate Entropy Loss Syndrome. Failing that, he could accept a means of transportation.
But it could actually draw Ability Cards like this?
[Limitless Technique Ability Card: Upon use, grants Martial Soul · Limitless Technique.]
Well, damn. It really was Gojo Satoru's Limitless!
"But this thing alone doesn't seem all that useful..."
Simply put, the Limitless Technique created a paradox around its user: all matter could infinitely approach its wielder, but could never truly reach the point of contact.
But this technique had a fatal flaw: it required an extremely precise foundation in cursed energy manipulation. Since the system had given him a Martial Soul, what it required was exceptionally precise soul power control.
Perhaps a genius could reach that level through training, but that gave rise to another problem.
Such delicate manipulation was undoubtedly mentally exhausting. Even if one could do it, they could not maintain it for long.
Only someone with a peculiar constitution like the "Six Eyes" could use it freely.
But even the Six Eyes would grow fatigued from prolonged use of the Limitless Technique. To truly wield it as effortlessly as one's own limbs, one would need to learn the "Reverse Cursed Technique" to heal that fatigue.
So the Limitless Technique alone was actually rather underwhelming.
At that thought, Yu Wuyi's blazing enthusiasm cooled. He might still find a way to learn the Reverse Cursed Technique, even if it required extraordinary comprehension.
But the Six Eyes were an innate constitution, something that could not be replicated through acquired means.
"Thought I'd gotten a king, but it turned out to be a joker."
Sure enough, how could there be such a good thing in this world~
[Why not draw again?]
The system suddenly appeared again.
Did that mean...!
"No way?"
A terrifying thought surfaced in Yu Wuyi's mind. Though this system could be infuriating when it spoke sometimes—
Whenever it appeared, it always gave him the answer he wanted.
And what he needed right now was precisely...
Hypothesis confirmed. Experiment begin!
"System, give me another single draw!"
[60 Commission Coins consumed. Drawing item...]
Huh? Why did this one cost 60? Wasn't it 50 per draw?
[Congratulations, Host! You have drawn Constitution Card: Six Eyes! Includes soul power manipulation technique: Reverse Cursed Technique!]
"Ah?!"
A voice filled with utter disbelief echoed through the room, and Yu Wuyi froze completely.
No way, System? You're serious?!
What was this? Limitless, Reverse, Six Eyes—the full package, turning him directly into the modern era's strongest, Gojo Satoru?!
It took Yu Wuyi quite a while to recover from his shock.
Looking at the two gilded cards before him, all sorts of emotions tangled together before finally turning into one sentence:
"System, the place bulls yearn for!"
Then, without the slightest hesitation, he grabbed both cards and used them on the spot!
The two cards instantly turned into streams of light and merged into Yu Wuyi's body.
The pleasant sensation made him close his eyes unconsciously as he felt the changes within his body.
A moment later, when he opened his eyes again, Firefly's iridescent eyes had gained a glass-like texture.
At the same time, his field of vision changed. No longer restricted to the broad angle from before, he now possessed a 360-degree view with no blind spots!
"So this is the Six Eyes... But suddenly being able to see in every direction is really hard to get used to."
With a gesture of his right hand, Yu Wuyi made the teacup on the table fly straight into his hand, then suddenly fly back.
The Six Eyes: blind-spot-free vision, visible soul power, and precise manipulation techniques.
The Limitless Technique: the ability to freely control attraction and repulsion.
Combined, the two made something like this effortless. However, he only had soul power at level ten right now, so he could not achieve particularly powerful effects.
And there was this as well.
The cracks on Yu Wuyi's hand visibly began to heal. However, he stopped after the experiment, otherwise it would be difficult to explain later.
The Reverse Cursed Technique.
This was a special method of soul power manipulation, with no direct relation to precision.
But strangely enough, in the world of cursed techniques, it could heal because cursed energy itself was negative energy. Once reversed, it became positive energy, which could then be used to heal.
Soul power did not possess such a property. It was merely pure energy, and only Martial Souls could give it transformations—yet the Reverse Cursed Technique could still use it to heal.
But once he considered that this thing had come from the system, everything made sense again.
You really are something, System!
