Superman's End Manual

"Of course I haven't forgotten. Who do you think you're talking to?"

Magical Girl Ash paused for a moment, then frowned slightly, picked up Cinderella who was tucked under her arm, and opened the umbrella upwards.

Instead of taking off immediately, she reached into the inside of the umbrella, as if she were reaching into a dimensional pocket, and pulled out a thick magic book.

"Here it comes, the treasure bag." Ke Mingye couldn't help but mutter.

The girl took out a card from her magic book. The card was engraved with intricate patterns. She infused the card with magic, and the card, which was inscribed with "Swift Wind," immediately disappeared.

Instead, a howling wind enveloped her body. She put away the magic book, casually lifted Cinderella, and, using the ripples spreading from the umbrella, instantly soared into the air.

It flew a hundred meters in just two seconds, more than half a time faster than before.

The violent wind pressure grazed their cheeks, and even the traffic light poles next to them swayed precariously, causing pedestrians on the road to gasp in surprise.

Ke Mingye raised his arm to shield himself from the wind, squinted at her receding figure, and then breathed a slight sigh of relief.

"Come on, magic cards are so powerful, why be a one-sided student? Do you have to not use cards to show your three masters how rebellious you are?"

Ke Mingye definitely didn't want to get involved in this mess. With Bai Zini's strength, she would definitely win an overwhelming victory against the Fly Fairy, but the premise was that she had to catch up with that guy.

The Fly Sage inherited the characteristics of flies, possessing astonishing speed. But Ash, who used a magic card, was different; she seemed genuinely provoked, otherwise she would never have used the card's power.

Just then, the Fly Fairy saw the magical girl chasing after her again, so he slowly climbed up from the high-altitude work platform. Six pairs of thin wings opened from the tear in his white robe, flapping wildly in the air and making a noisy sound.

His six pairs of thin wings worked simultaneously, propelling him down from the sky and through the bustling commercial street.

The hunched figure in a white robe moved among the electronic billboards, like an ancient person who had traveled to the modern era, completely out of place with the background.

But soon, the Fly Sage realized something was wrong. He discovered that the magical girl chasing behind him had suddenly increased her speed by more than 50%, and even had time to attack him while keeping up with him.

The next moment, his figure was enveloped by a barrage of magic missiles fired from behind, and he fell to the ground, leaving a dark ravine mixed with mud and blood.

The girl in the gothic dress approached him step by step, drawing a clear, gleaming katana from the bottom of the umbrella handle. She pressed the blade against his neck, whispering something.

Ke Mingye saw this from a distance, put his hands in his coat pockets, and left with peace of mind.

He crossed the highway and continued running along the edge of the road. Soon he finally finished the five kilometers required for his daily task and stopped to catch his breath.

[Daily Task 1: Run 5000 meters (Completed)]

He looked up at the panel, claimed the daily task reward, and a spinning wheel appeared before him.

"Wow," Ke Mingye looked at the prize on the spinning wheel, "is it real?"

He reached out and touched the spinning wheel. The pointer spun rapidly and finally stopped on the "Skill Enhancement Card Fragment" in area ①.

[Currently holding 2 skill enhancement card fragments, when all 3 fragments are collected, they will be automatically combined into one "Skill Enhancement Card".]

"Now I can probably open another account," Ke Mingye thought. "Hopefully, the last fragment won't be as hard to collect as the last penny on Pinduoduo."

Please vote for me, thank you!

Chapter 79 The Day of the Chosen One, The Chosen One

After completing his morning run, Ke Mingye arrived at Hongge Food Street as he wished. He found a breakfast shop there, ate some shumai and soy milk, and then took the subway home.

I unlocked the front door with my key, and as I pushed open the bedroom door, my gaze passed through the entryway; the living room remained completely empty.

Ke Mingye sat down on the sofa, scrolling through his phone listlessly. The clock on the old wall ticked away, and when the hands reached 8:30, there was finally someone in the living room.

Ke Youqing and Bai Wenna woke up. One of them sat at the dining table reading the newspaper, while the other fried an egg in a frying pan. They chatted about their honeymoon trip next week.

Ke Youqing couldn't persuade her otherwise, so he had no choice but to agree. It seems that we won't see the model worker for a while in the Beijing area.

Ke Mingye sat on the sofa, listening silently to the conversation between this exemplary couple.

"Dad and Mom went on a trip, what will happen to Ke Yongzhu? Will my little brother be besieged by the Ninja Clan and then roasted into a dragon meat hot pot?" he thought.

Ke Mingye was just a fence-sitter. After all, the system's mission for him was either to help the Ninja Sect cut off the Calamity Dragon or to help Ke Xiaomo destroy the Ninja Sect. Which side he fought would depend entirely on Ke Xiaomo's wishes.

But even a fence-sitter should have some backbone, right?

So he decided to prepare for the battle just like his second brother, and try to have a considerable fighting force before July 4th.

The minute hand of the clock struck 8:45 in the morning, and the second brother, Ke Xiaomo, came home.

He was drenched in sweat, his white T-shirt soaked through and clinging to his clearly defined muscles. His wet bangs hung down, obscuring his eyes. It seemed he had undergone numerous high-intensity training sessions that morning; such training intensity would have easily led to sudden death in an ordinary person.

Ke Mingye didn't understand what ninja training was like, but he could roughly imagine it.

He had seen it in some movies and TV shows before; many ninjas would hang themselves upside down on cliffs to train their willpower, and only the toughest men survived.

But he felt that cultivating his concentration in this way was not as swift as releasing a "superhero-style landing" from a thousand meters above the city, or dealing with eight superhuman family members who could kill him with a single slap, playing the charming and lovable villain "weird thing," and being on the verge of death every day...

This is what true cultivation of concentration should be, okay?

It's just a bit exhausting.

Ke Xiaomo took a shower in the bathroom, changed her clothes, and went back to her room for a nap.

Bai Ziling, Bai Zini, and Ke Yongzhu secretly played "Monopoly" in their room last night, so they haven't gotten up yet, except for Bai Zini, who sneaked out of the back window of the room early this morning to fight criminals.

The eldest brother and sister got up.

Bai Qiuwu hurriedly left after finishing breakfast; she had to attend a college entrance exam preparatory class and was in a rush.

Ke Yinzhi yawned and sat down next to Ke Mingye, resting one arm on the back of the sofa, quietly flipping through Dostoevsky's "Notes from Underground".

Ke Mingye sat down next to Ke Yinzhi and brazenly opened the shop panel, displaying the message: "If you find out, I'll die right here."

As always, he skipped the first two pages and flipped directly to the skills sales page.

In the understanding of a gaming expert like him, skills are the key, and everything else is just supplementary. He only considers buying equipment when his skill slots are full and he has no choice but to expand his combat power in other ways.

Current holdings of Mall Coins: 12260

【①: Chosen Day (D-rank skill, 11500 Mall Coins) (Designate a date more than 60 days from now. On that day, you will gain a one-time skill called "Chosen One." For one hour after activating "Chosen One," all your attributes will be doubled.) (Cooldown time for Chosen Day: 60 days)】

[Note 1: This skill cannot specify the same date repeatedly.]

"What future soldier?"

Opening Critical Strike! Ke Mingye thought to himself, "What kind of weird skills is this system giving me? Can I even predict what will happen two months from now? I should be popping champagne just for surviving this summer, system bro."

But then he had a new idea.

"If I use it once every two months, this skill can be effective a total of five times in a year... That means I have a total of 5 designated days where I can obtain a burst skill that doubles my attributes for a short period of time, which is perfect for beating up 'Terrifying Crow Man', 'Zeus the God of Gods', and 'Alien Mom'."

"If I randomly choose a day two months from now, I might be too busy with family matters to do anything, and I'll just waste this skill that doubles my attributes."

"But what if we specify all the dates as the last five days before the final task deadline?"

"So in the last five days, I could use this skill every time I faced a tough guy."

That's the idea, but Ke Mingye still felt it was too idealistic: doing this was no different from taking out a loan to invest; the loan was for present security, while the investment was for one's future self.

So he first looked at the skills below.

【②: Blood Explosion (C-rank skill, 30000 Shop Coins) (Skill effect: Converts your health points into physical attributes and nervous reaction attributes in a proportional manner. The more health points sacrificed, the higher the attribute increase)】

"What berserker?"

【③: The Martyr's Faith (D-rank skill, 11500 Mall Coins) (Skill retained from yesterday, will disappear the next day)】

【④: Night Parade of One Hundred Demons (Rank B Skill, 55500 Shop Coins) (Unfolds a "Night Parade of One Hundred Demons" in the space in front of you. The higher your "Spiritual Strength" attribute, the higher the level of demons you can summon.)】

"Is this really not an A-rank skill?"

Ke Mingye had his doubts, but since he couldn't afford it, he had no right to complain about it.

【⑤: Soul Essence Steal (C-rank skill, 30000 Shop Coins) (After use, enters a state that lasts for 20 seconds. Each time damage is dealt to an enemy, there is a 20% chance of success in the check. If the check is successful, 10% of the attribute value is stolen from the enemy. All stolen attribute values ​​will disappear after 5 minutes)】

"I'm sorry."

【⑥: The Death of Jesus (Rank B skill, 51500 Mall Coins) (Creates a small cross in your palm and designates a target. If the target dies within 10 seconds, their soul will attach to the cross. If the cross is not destroyed within 10 minutes, the target will respawn.)】

"I can't afford it, but why is the drop rate of B-grade skills so high today?"

【⑦: Partial Metallization (E-rank skill, 5500 Mall Coins)】

【⑧: Finger of Greed (D-level skill, price: 12000 Mall Coins) (Skill effect: Deals true damage to a target that varies with the amount of Mall Coins the player holds. If the target is successfully killed with this move, the player will receive 200 Mall Coins.) (No Mall Coins will be awarded for killing targets that are too weak.)

(Damage calculation formula: 500 points of true damage + additional damage affected by the amount of in-game currency. The more in-game currency you have, the higher the damage this attack will deal. Currently holding 12260 in-game currency, Finger of Greed can deal additional true damage equal to "1% of the enemy's maximum health".)

"This skill is great for finishing off opponents. Because it deals true damage, no matter how thick-skinned the opponent is, it won't change the damage of this move. If used at the right time, it can even generate gold coins." Ke Mingye raised an eyebrow.

【⑨: Poisonous Mist Burst (E-rank skill, 5200 Mall Coins)】

【⑩: Life Conversion (E-rank skill, 5500 Shop Coins) (Converts your health points into stamina points proportionally)】

Ke Mingye hesitated for a long time among the three D-level skills: "Chosen Day," "Martyr's Faith," and "Finger of Greed," before finally choosing "Chosen Day."

If there's any skill that can change the outcome, this is definitely one of them; it's an investment in the future.

Thank you for your patronage. You have purchased the D-level skill, "The Chosen Day."

[A total of 11500 Mall Coins have been spent. Your current Mall Coin balance is 760.]

The skill "Chosen Day" has been automatically loaded into your fifth skill slot, leaving five empty skill slots.

柯明野打开手机，用百度引擎搜索了一下2028年6月22日的361天后是哪一天，最终得出的结果是“2029年6月18日”。

He checked it two or three times, then unleashed his skill—"The Chosen Day."
