Superman's End Manual

With that in mind, he opened his baggage and sold two items that he didn't really need—"an enhanced pirate musket," "a set of train conductor uniforms," and "electromagnetic pulse gloves" that were almost ruined from damage in the battle.
To be honest, he quite liked the electromagnetic pulse glove, but unfortunately it didn't have an automatic repair function and couldn't be repaired or restored with in-game currency, so he could only sell it to get some more in-game currency.
[Sold the D-grade equipment "Enhanced Pirate Musket", the E-grade equipment "A Set of Train Conductor Uniform", and the C-grade equipment "Electromagnetic Pulse Gloves", for a total of 4500 Mall Coins.]
Current total amount of Mall Coins held: 27300
Although he felt like he was being wasteful, he still clicked on the skill sales page with great interest.
【①: Doomsday Shelter (Rank C Skill, Price: 25000 Shop Coins): Creates an alternate dimension independent of the outside world, allowing you and a target to temporarily hide within it (the duration of this alternate dimension is closely related to your "Mental Strength" attribute).】
"It's a bit like the 'cave theory' of intellectuals, but his skill can only be used on himself. This skill can also be used on teammates. It can create a 1v1 space for an enemy, or it can be used to protect teammates."
As Ke Mingye pondered this, he swiped down the panel, his gaze fixed on the next skill.
His goal is a B-level skill. He only has one skill slot left, and since he'll definitely need to replace the low-level skill later anyway, it's not worthwhile to use it and occupy the last slot.
It's better to just buy a B-grade skill. That way, even if you need to replace the B-grade skill with an A-grade or S-grade skill, it will be a matter for the mid-to-late game or very late game.
【②: Flame Roar (C-rank skill, price: 25000 shop coins): Open your mouth and spew out a jet of flame. The greater your lung capacity, the longer the skill lasts.】
【③: Ground Spikes (D-rank skill, price: 11000 Mall Coins): Slam your right palm into the ground, creating sharp ground spikes in a rectangular area in front of you—the higher the level, the sharper and longer the spikes.】
【④: Spinning Arm Rock-Paper-Scissors Technique (Rank B skill, priced at 52000 Mall Coins):】
After using the skill, slowly rotate your arm. You can complete one full rotation every second, and the power accumulated in your arm will increase by one level - the maximum is 20 rotations. When you reach level 20, your power will be 10 times the original.
You can stop the arm-circling motion at any time and release all the energy accumulated through the rotation to play a game of rock-paper-scissors (randomly choosing one of the three options) with an unknown outcome. Depending on the result of the game, one of the following three scenarios may occur:
When you throw the stone, the power of your fist increases again, delivering a very fast punch forward.
When you use the scissors, use two fingers of your right hand as a sword to slash forward with a medium-sized blade of light (the power of the blade of light depends on the strength of your arm).
When you use the cloth move, a beam of energy is fired forward. (The power and maximum range of the energy beam depend on the strength of your arm; the greater the arm strength, the stronger the energy beam and the farther it travels forward.)
"Holy crap, what Hunter x Hunter?"
Ke Mingye slightly widened his eyes, thinking to himself.
"It looks really cool... This skill's potential seems very high. But the uncertainty is too high. Randomly selecting one of three effects to release sounds unreliable."
This is similar to the calamity dice; although the upper limit is high, the uncontrollability is strong.
However, if used skillfully enough, the uncontrollability of the skill can be minimized, and its maximum potential can be fully realized.
"Now is... fantasy time."
Ke Mingye scratched his chin, thinking to himself.
"If we could get some key item later on, or even a divine path to the Goddess of Fate, and then use these things to turn 'Calamity Dice' or 'Rotating Arm Rock-Paper-Scissors' from gambling skills into stable skills, so that we can choose one result from multiple options, that would be great."
He didn't even dare to imagine how fierce he would be if that situation actually happened.
He was always given a choice of one out of six dice rolls and miraculously escaped death.
Or, spin around 20 times to accumulate maximum power, play rock-paper-scissors and get paper, then unleash a beam of energy that flattens the Superhero Building to the ground.
【⑤: Undead, heed my command (D-rank skill, price: 10500 shop coins): Summon a horde of skeleton warriors to fight for you.】
【⑥: Shadow Wolf Summoning Spell (E-rank skill, price: 5500 Mall Coins): Summons a shadow wolf to fight for you.】
Ke Mingye stared at skills number 5 and 6, and suddenly remembered someone, the third Japanese player mentioned by the top male host—"Night Confession".
Although I didn't see Ye Su on my last trip to Tokyo, the top male host mentioned that Ye Su follows the summoning route, and all the skills he chose are related to summoning.
"Summoning players, if they can summon Godzilla in the late game, they'll be invincible."
Ke Mingye thought to himself as he scrolled down the page.
【⑦: Thunder Strike (C-rank skill, price: 30000 shop coins): Summons the power of heavenly thunder to imbue the weapon, delivering a devastating blow to the target. It is extremely powerful but has a chance to damage the user.】
【⑧: Language Proficiency (D-rank skill, price: 10500 Mall Coins): This is a passive skill. After purchasing, you will automatically learn all the languages in the world and be able to use them fluently.】
【⑨: Floating Turret (C-rank skill, price: 30000 Shop Coins): Deploys a floating turret above your head. The turret fires lasers and attacks the same enemy as you.】
【⑩: Deep Diving (E-rank skill, price: 5100 shop coins): After using this skill, you can breathe underwater for one hour, and your underwater movement speed is greatly increased.】
After a moment's deliberation, Ke Mingye decided to acquire the B-rank skill. This was a golden opportunity; he might never get another chance to obtain it, which would be such a shame.
So he opened his bag and used the 50% off shopping voucher he had been keeping for so long.
[A 50% off shopping card has been used (valid for purchasing items, equipment, and skills of rank B and below). The final price will be adjusted when purchasing eligible items.]
Next, I went to the skill sales page, locked onto skill number 4, "Rotating Arm Rock-Paper-Scissors Technique," and decisively pressed the buy button.
Current total amount of Mall Coins held: 27300
With the 50% off shopping card, the price of the B-level skill "Rocking Arm Rock-Paper-Scissors" has decreased to 52000 x 0.5 = 26000 Mall Coins.
Thank you for your patronage. You have successfully purchased the B-level skill – "Rocking Arm Rock-Paper-Scissors Technique".
This purchase totaled 26000 Mall Coins. You currently have 1300 Mall Coins remaining.
The skill "Rocking Arm Rock-Paper-Scissors" has been automatically loaded into your skill slot 10.
[Important Note 1: There are currently 0 empty skill slots. If you need to learn a new skill, you must first overwrite an existing skill!]
[Important Note 2: Skills that are overwritten will disappear and return to the skill's exclusive sales page. If a player encounters the skill again, they can still purchase it a second time!]
"My skill bar is already full. It doesn't feel quite real."
Ke Mingye muttered to himself, glancing at his skill bar.
【1、诈术人偶(B级);2、灾厄骰子(D级);3、超级英雄式落地(E级);4、人格撕裂(E级);5、天选之日(D级);6、相位转移(E级);7、太阳能冲拳(D级);8、安全限制解除(E级);9、动物沟通术(E级);10、旋臂猜拳术(B级)】
"If I need to change skills in the future, it seems that I'll have to replace 'Solar Punch,' 'Safety Restriction Release,' and 'Superhero Landing' first. These skills aren't that irreplaceable."
"Furthermore, once Yuriko has made a grand sacrifice in the Watchmaker War, I can legitimately replace the 'Animal Communication Technique'."
"Hopefully, this dead cat will prove worth the E-rank skill I bought for it, and the fact that it took up a skill slot for so long..."
Ke Mingye closed the panel and muttered to himself.
After purchasing the skill from the skill sales page, he didn't rush to try it out.
Since this is at least a B-level skill, causing too much commotion and attracting the police would be counterproductive. This abandoned train station is his secret base.
At this moment, he was focused on maneuvering the Blue Owl toward the abandoned train station.
To be honest, Ke Mingye was a little worried that the Blue Crow would track the Blue Owl. If the Blue Crow saw this scene, he would immediately realize that he was using a puppet to impersonate the Blue Owl.
That would be hard to explain. He couldn't very well say he had the ability to control puppets, that would be too suspicious. Given his father's personality, if he didn't put a brain imaging helmet on Ke Mingye's head, he wouldn't even look like himself.
Therefore, Ke Mingye went to great lengths to prevent this unacceptable situation from occurring.
On his way back, while controlling the Blue Owl, he deliberately found a shady spot and activated the Nightwalker Belt's ability to enter stealth mode.
Then, deliberately taking several winding alleys, we finally returned to the old Jingmai neighborhood via the most secluded route and quickly entered the train station.
Nevertheless, Ke Mingye was still worried that the Blue Crow was still following behind, so he released the Blue Bird reconnaissance plane from his bag.
The small, blue, bird-shaped reconnaissance machine remained on the ground for a moment, then tilted and fell to the ground, like a newly hatched chick that had not yet learned to walk.
Ke Mingye scratched his chin, glancing at it with a rather helpless expression. He had a feeling that this thing looked like a poorly made piece from a student mechanical design exhibition.
"Can this thing really fly?"
As he was thinking, the Bluebird reconnaissance plane suddenly straightened up again, swaying but very determined, and the long hair on its head, which looked like a "wing", stood up.
"Fly up. Circle over the train station and see if there are any crows. If you see any crows, turn around and leave."
Ke Mingye's instructions settled in his mind.
As the wings of the Bluebird reconnaissance aircraft began to spin rapidly, it flapped its mechanical wings and rose into the sky, patrolling back and forth above the abandoned train station.
Ke Mingye shared its vision and used his mind to control the bluebird to patrol the sky, ensuring that no black bird-like creatures would hide under the eaves of the train station and secretly observe him.
If crows appear nearby, it means that blue ravens are likely already in the vicinity, and he will have no choice but to find a way to escape.
Fortunately, after circling around, the Bluebird reconnaissance aircraft did not find any suspicious birds, so Ke Mingye put the clumsy bird reconnaissance aircraft back into its bag.
"Thank goodness Dad didn't chase after us..."
Ke Mingye breathed a sigh of relief, clutching his chest, his hand covered in cold sweat.
He didn't even dare to imagine how complicated the situation would become if his father really followed the Blue Owl to this place and saw two Ke Mingyes.
Therefore, Ke Mingye will definitely have to use his true form in the future, otherwise, if Qingya really gets serious and tries to follow him to find out his background.
His use of puppets in combat will be discovered sooner or later, and then it will be impossible to explain.
But things are different now. He lacks strength and confidence, and he hasn't revealed his identity to his family yet, so no one will protect him.
Going out to fight criminals under these circumstances, if you run into a tough nut to crack, you might just lose your life.
Ke Mingye watched the Blue Owl walk into the abandoned train station, and then shared his view, looking at himself sitting on a public wooden bench. He felt that this scene was almost enough to make him have a split personality.
He made Blue Owl take off his battle suit, put down his spare phone, remove all player equipment, and then handed him the business card that read "Commander of the Superhero Association".
Then he sent the Blue Owl to a corner to face the wall, to find a relatively cramped and soundproof spot to self-destruct.
Ke Mingye breathed a sigh of relief, put his spare phone into his pocket, and then picked up the business card.
“Just call this number on the business card, register with the association, and I’ll be a superhero…” he thought. “Then Dad will know who I am right away. I’m really curious to see what will happen then.”
Just then, a message bubble suddenly appeared in the upper right corner of my field of vision.
