Chapter 3 Multiplier Attributes, and you call this a free-to-play player?
Ding!
[The system has detected that the cap for casual players is extremely low, and has automatically loaded a patch...]
[Patch complete: The host's current base attributes (Strength/Agility/Intelligence/Constitution) have been increased to 4 times (20 points) of an average person, and their mental strength is 10 times (100 points) of an average person!]
[Note: This system has gone to great lengths to ensure the host can better complete the task (and prevent premature death).]
Su Ming felt the terrifying power suddenly surging within his body and almost lost his grip on the water bottle.
Four times the base attributes?
Ten times the mental strength?
Is this what you call a freelancer?
This is practically a demon king in disguise!
"Ahem, System, for the sake of the attribute points, I'll reluctantly do this. After all, only by being strong enough can you lie low more safely."
Su Ming silently made a deal with the system in his mind.
......
The car quickly drove into the Cloud Top Manor, the most central area of Shanghai.
In Shanghai, where land is incredibly valuable, the Su family owns an entire mountain.
As soon as the car came to a stop, before Su Ming could even get out, he saw his parents, who were usually powerful figures in the business world but now looked like two empty-nest elderly people, standing at the door, eagerly waiting.
Su's father, Su Zhiguo, is a business tycoon. He wears a traditional Chinese suit and holds two walnuts in his hands.
Su Mu Lin Yue, an S-level legendary healer, looks like she's in her thirties. She wears a cheongsam and exudes an elegant demeanor.
Su Ming had just gotten out of the car and hadn't even had a chance to act out a scene of feeling very disappointed and needing comfort.
Su Zhiguo walked over laughing loudly, his laughter almost making the stone lions at the entrance tremble.
"Hahaha! Good! Good lad!"
Su Zhiguo patted Su Ming's shoulder forcefully, his face full of pride:
"Your sister just told me! Faced with the temptation of a god-level profession, she was able to refuse without batting an eye! That composure, that magnanimity that sees fame and fortune as fleeting clouds, truly makes her worthy of being my son, Su Zhiguo!"
Su Ming: "???"
Dad, is your comprehension ability also perfect?
Lin Yue stepped forward, tenderly touched Su Ming's face, and then turned to the butler, instructing him:
"Did you hear that? Young Master chose to become a freelancer so we wouldn't worry, and so he wouldn't have to suffer as some kind of judge! That's what you call filial piety!"
"Hurry up, prepare the Australian lobster, king crab, and ginseng soup for tonight! My son has been wronged; he needs a good rest!"
Su Ming stood at his doorstep, looking at his family members who were blindly praising him.
Is this what happiness is for the rich?
Even if someone chooses a useless profession, it can be interpreted as showing courage and filial piety.
He turned his head, a slight smile playing on his lips.
"Since you've all put it that way, wouldn't it be a waste of this vast fortune if I didn't make the most of this wandering soul?"
"Dad, Mom, Sister, let's go inside and talk."
Su Ming stretched, his tone relaxed and cheerful, just like a child who had just returned from a picnic.
"Perfect timing. I have a small plan worth a few hundred million that I'd like to discuss with you over dinner regarding this casual profession."
Su Zhiguo waved his hand with a flourish:
"What's a few hundred million? Come inside! Let's have a drink tonight, just the two of us!"
In the setting sun, the long shadows of the family of four stretched out, exuding an aura of wealth... no, I mean, warmth.
......
On the dining table, top-quality ingredients were piled up like a small mountain:
The abyssal king crabs were air-freighted, the ancient snow ginseng soup was carefully preserved, and various top-grade medicinal wines that only high-level professionals could enjoy.
Surrounded by his family, Su Ming sat in the center, his profession as a freelancer becoming the focus of the family's praise.
"Come on, son! Drink this cup of Star Wine!"
Father Su Zhiguo raised his wine glass. The wine was brewed from fifth-tier magic crystals and was said to be able to increase the upper limit of mental power.
Su Ming took it, his eyes revealing the helplessness of being forced to work:
"Dad, this wine is too potent; I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep tonight."
Su Zhiguo laughed loudly, a laugh so loud it seemed he wanted the entire city of Shanghai to hear it:
"It's good that you can't sleep! You're a hermit of the times now, you need to stay awake! Look at those who switched to warriors or mages, can they have this state of mind as still as water?"
Su Ming's older sister, Su Qing, put down the crab claw in her hand and summarized seriously:
"Yes, Mingming. You rejected the [God of Judgment], which is an open declaration of war against the culture of involution! You're telling the whole world:"
"My family is rich, I speak for myself, and I won't bow down for a pittance!"
Lin Yue, Su's mother, gently picked up a piece of king crab meat and placed it in Su Ming's bowl, her tone full of affection:
"My dear son, you're not a casual player, you're a freelancer. Look at those professionals who toil away in dungeons every day for experience points, how hard do they work?"
"Mom supports you. Mom doesn't want her good son to be so tired. You just need to enjoy life in style!"
Su Ming listened to their repeated words of comfort without any inner turmoil, but on the surface he still showed a touched (cooperative) smile.
"Not operating? I was threatened by the system. If I don't operate, I'll have to become the God of Judgment!"
But he knew that now was the perfect time to propose the "Ultimate Spending Plan for Solo Players".
Su Ming put down his wine glass, cleared his throat, and his expression became serious:
"Dad, Mom, Sister, you're right. I can't let our family be disgraced. I'll prove that ordinary people aren't useless; they just lack the power of money!"
Su Zhiguo immediately became interested and slammed his hand on the table:
"Well said! My son has a dream! How much money does he need? Name your budget!"
Su Ming held up two fingers: "My plan will proceed in two steps."
"Step 1: Material preparation."
"I need to purchase low-level skill books (levels 1-10) for some professions available on the market. For example, the Warrior's 'Basic Parry', the Mage's 'Fireball', the Priest's 'Heal', and so on."
"I'm going to conduct a 'permutation and combination' study on all professions!"
Su Zhiguo nodded:
"No problem! Low-level skill books are worthless. I'll have someone go and buy them all tomorrow. Even if it means buying up the entire stock in Shanghai!"
"Step Two: Venue and Time"
"I need to use the advanced gravity training room and magic gathering array at home. And to ensure I'm undisturbed for the next few days, I need to go into seclusion."
Su Qing immediately made the decision:
"No problem, I'll have the butler cancel all the family meetings for the time being. You can focus on your cultivation! We'll protect you!"
Su Ming was overjoyed: As expected of the richest man in Shanghai, this level of spending is simply the greatest support for the system!
After dinner, Su Ming returned to his luxurious bedroom.
Just then, the Myriad Manifestations Umbrella was activated, so he couldn't wait to lock the door. With a thought, the system panel unfolded before his eyes.
[ID: Su Ming]
【Occupation: All-rounder (Growth Potential)】
[Level: 1]
[Talent: Universal Mastery (Can learn and fuse all class skills, ignoring class prerequisites)]
【Equipment: Main weapon: Thousand Manifestations Umbrella (form can be switched, possessing the ability to bear the laws)】
【Attributes (Basic)】
[Strength: 20] (Standard for A-rank warrior)
[Agility: 20] (Standard for A-rank Assassin)
[Intelligence: 20] (Standard for A-rank Priest)
[Constitution: 20] (Standard for A-level boxer)
[Spirit: 100 (Law overflow base)] (Currently no comparable class, strength overflow)
Su Ming was still deeply shocked as he looked at the data.
"These attribute bonuses are practically maxed out from the start! Is this really a solo player?"
With such high stats, wouldn't I be able to use the four-fold advantage in all stats and low-level skill combos to compensate for the lack of high-level skills among solo players and bypass class barriers?
Su Ming was overjoyed. This made him invincible!
Low skill ceiling for casual players? No problem! My starting point is someone else's finish line!
He couldn't wait to summon the [Thousand Chance Umbrella].
A jet-black metal umbrella appeared in his palm.
"I have to say, he's really handsome."
Su Ming sighed, "After 12 hours of activation, it was finally worth the wait."
This perfectly fulfilled his fantasy about the Thousand Chance Umbrella from the novel in his previous life.
Immediately, Su Ming had a thought, and it followed the system settings, instantly switching to the [Greatsword] form, ready to test its effects.
