My future updates weekly.

Chapter 15 Even You Need to Keep Some Privacy

"How dare you peek at my messages and add me as a friend using my account!"

Jiang He gripped his phone, his face flushed.

Although he doesn't have many friends, no one usually chats with him.

But since Baihe can view his message history, she can naturally also view his browsing history—something he cannot accept.

He would rather die than let anyone know about some of his browsing history!

"It's not your message, it's 'my' message." Bai He looked completely innocent. "I am you from the future. I know everything about you. How can that be called spying?"

"You..." Jiang He was speechless for a moment.

It seems to make sense. According to the effect of [Time Transfer], the timeline experienced by the future heroic spirits will be divided by the "moment of awakening".

At least so far, everything he has experienced, Baihe has also experienced.

In the presence of his "future self," everything about him is transparent.

Even so, it's still shameful!

Can't we be a little more mindful of our boundaries in the future? Let's leave some privacy for ourselves now!
Jiang He took a deep breath: "From now on, you are not allowed to use my phone anymore!"

Baihe: "Then how do I buy things?"

Jiang He: "I'll get you some cash!"

Bai He shrugged, and Jiang He then picked up his phone to check the messages.

First, there was a message from Teacher Wei, just like what Bai He said: the principal was going to hold a [Fire Master] job transition ceremony for him today, and he needed to arrive at school before nine o'clock.

I also sent him a class schedule.

Apart from a few basic cultural courses, the timetable is packed with advanced courses, including skills application and career advancement.

However, the detailed course content, including the instructors, is not yet fully determined due to the availability of multiple options, and is awaiting Jiang He's own decision.

Jiang He wasn't in a hurry to select courses. After closing the timetable, he opened Chi Zhilei's messages.

Records show that Bai He accepted Chi Zhilei's friend request around 7 PM last night, but there was no follow-up reply, only casual chat topics and links shared by Chi Zhilei herself.

The last message was asking Jiang He what time he would leave so they could go to school together.

Jiang He breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Bai He hadn't sent any random messages.

However, when he saw Chi Zhilei's long list of messages, he felt a headache and a little embarrassed... He had accepted the friend request but hadn't replied to a single message. Was that a bad idea?

After hesitating for a moment, he sent the message.

[Jiang He: Seven o'clock.]

[Chi Zhilei: Received (Zhonglei emoji)]

Jiang He put down his phone and sighed.

He's really bad at dealing with overly enthusiastic people.

But then again...

Bai He had said that he didn't want to interfere in Jiang He's "relationships," but now he suddenly added Chi Zhilei as a friend for him, clearly showing a contradiction in his words and actions.

Does this mean that Chi Zhilei is not Jiang He's future wife?
"Could it be that they're afraid I'll be won over by Chi Zhilei, so they're using this method to warn me?"

"They're unwilling to get involved, yet they want to eliminate answers for me... It's so awkward."

After a night's rest, Jiang He's brilliant mind regained its footing, and he felt he had figured out the key to the problem, which made him chuckle.

But he didn't argue with Bai He—compared to any future wife, today's battle was the main event.

Bai He once said that no matter what profession he chooses, the Arc Light Organization will take advantage of today's job change ceremony to attack the school; this is an "inevitable" event.

Superhumans have exceptional memories, and Jiang He still remembered yesterday's information.

Now, only one last preparatory step remains.

Stat allocation for professions.

The Rumor Monger class has reached level 9, and there are still 3 skill points left to allocate.

They can be used to unlock practical skills and quickly improve Jiang He's combat power.

At this moment, Jiang He checked the Rumor Monger's skill tree—

The job skill tree doesn't simply list all skills for you to choose which skills to allocate points to. Instead, it lists several initial skills for each path.

Only by unlocking these initial skills as prerequisites can you acquire and unlock subsequent advanced skills.

There are currently six skills available.

The rumor's path is as follows:

[Babbling Level 6...]

[A booming voice—using sound to amplify the power of words; the louder the voice, the stronger the effect.]

[Speech Speed—Increases speech rate and speed of speech power release.] The transmission path is:

[Echoes - Each time a spell is acquired, it slightly increases your Spirit.]

[Quiet and reserved - Choose a spell, reduce its pronunciation by one syllable, and slightly weaken its effect.]

[Subtext—Choose a spell, add one more syllable to it, and slightly enhance its effect.]

First, it's like Jiang He lighting up the babbling of children.

The growth skill does not have any subsequent advanced skills; it exists independently.

Secondly, the remaining two skills on the two paths represent two different routes.

[Quick Cast] and [Increased Power].

Jiang He looked at the two routes and hesitated for a moment.

They seem to represent only different inclinations, and either one can improve combat skills.

At this point, it was the white crane that offered advice again.

"Choose the enhancement path of spells—battles for low-level superhumans are not so time-sensitive, but their energy is limited, and there is a limit to the number of times they can use spells."

"Rapid casting will only accelerate the draining of mental energy."

Jiang He thought it made a lot of sense, so he activated the "Voice Like a Bell" level 1.

After acquiring the initial skills, advanced skills will also appear.

【Words of Wisdom - Active Skill: After use, the next Word of Power will have an additional effect on Spirit.】

This can be considered a targeted enhancement of the mental-based incantation, and its practical effect is very strong.

Even if you can't control the other party's thoughts, but only interfere with their actions, it's easy to achieve results.

Jiang He decisively lit it up.

New advanced skills have emerged.

[One-Hit Wonder - Limited Skill: Suppresses one's own mental energy to make the next Word of Power multiply in effect, but prevents the use of any Word of Power (including incantations and spells) for a period of time afterwards.]

This is clearly a burst skill; although it has significant side effects, it can be decisive.

Jiang He activated it, and a new advanced skill appeared.

[Hidden Words of Injury - Active Skill: Hides the next Word of Power in place, which explodes when any target passes by, dealing additional damage.]

This is another very good skill.

It even transformed the form of its incantation, changing it from an instant effect to a delayed trap, making it extremely insidious and powerful.

However, Jiang He has already used up all 3 skill points, and he can only learn this skill when he upgrades his profession level again.

In addition to the enhanced path of the spell path, the other three paths are also very tempting and can greatly improve personal strength.

"I'm so short on skill points!"

"No wonder Teacher Wei wants to advance so much..."

Having used up all his skill points, Jiang He had made ample preparations.

The rest is all about practical application.

He washed up, changed his clothes, and went out of the house.

When he arrived at the entrance of the residential area, he saw a girl with a ponytail standing by the roadside with a schoolbag on her shoulder, waving at him.

"Good morning, Jiang He!"

Seeing the girl's smile in the morning sun, Jiang He's heart raced—a teenager who had been single for eighteen years had never experienced such a scene before.

However, Jiang He's mood cooled down again when he thought of Bai He's reminder.

She is most likely not his future wife.

"Seriously, that White Crane guy..."

Jiang He thought to himself, but soon came up with another good idea.

He walked towards Chi Zhilei and asked, "Chi, have you had breakfast?"

"Not yet." Chi Zhilei: "Are there any good restaurants around here?"

"Hand-washed gluten soup, and Da Liang soup dumplings."

"middle!"

Jiang He glanced at the white crane out of the corner of his eye, a smile playing on his lips.

You're messing with my phone, aren't you?

This morning I'm making sure you can only look, not eat!
