The whole nation is trying to survive on the cable car; I'm choosing one of three options at ea

He closed the chat window and was about to get up and stretch when a familiar notification sound suddenly rang in his ears... It wasn't the gentle notification he received when choosing one of the three talents, but a more solemn and formal system announcement.

[You are the first survivor on Blue Star Cable to complete a career advancement.]

[Hidden achievement achieved: Pro Player.]

[Reward: Unlocks a second career slot.]

You may choose an additional job to change to. The requirements for changing jobs are the same as for your first job: you must reach level 3 and use the corresponding job change scroll.

[Note: The dual-class system is now activated. You can freely switch between two classes, sharing attribute bonuses, with independent skill cooldowns.]

[Congratulations on your job change! Your chances of obtaining new class weapons from monster drops or by using the roulette wheel will be increased within the next three days.]

Su Mu was stunned.

Second career slot?

Dual careers?

He glanced at his job panel subconsciously... Next to the original "Gunner (purple)" slot, there was now an empty slot with the words "Not yet changed jobs" written in gray.

In other words, he can choose another profession besides Gunner.

Moreover, the attribute bonuses of the two professions are stacked, and the skills have independent cooldowns... This means that he can use up a set of Gunner skills in battle, then switch to the other profession and use another set.

If chosen well, the skills of the two professions can synergize...

Su Mu's eyes slowly brightened.

The Gunner is a melee physical class, centered on strength and constitution, excelling at frontal breakthroughs and area-of-effect damage. If you choose a ranged class... such as an archer, gunner, or mage... then they can be effective at both close and long range, using the Gunner's combos to suppress enemies at close range and kiting them with the other class's skills from a distance.

Alternatively, choose a support class to heal and buff yourself. A battlefield medic is a perfect choice... although its blue quality is a bit low, it can heal, detoxify, and remove negative status effects, making it excellent at surviving.

Alternatively, choose a control-oriented class to maximize your control chain. The Gunner already possesses a thrust attack that launches enemies into the air and a sweeping attack that knocks them back; if you add a freeze or stun skill...

Su Mu took a deep breath, suppressing his excitement.

It's too early to think about these things now. He only has two skill books... He's already used the purple one for Gunners, and gave the blue one for Battlefield Medics to Lin Yuwei. The remaining one... He glanced at his backpack; it was empty.

We need to make another one.

And you can't just pick any job. The choice of a second class is related to your future combat power ceiling, so you must be careful. Ideally, it should complement the Gunner class... either add ranged damage, or add survivability, or add control.

But there's no use rushing now. Professional books are rare and hard to come by; you can only wait for the right opportunity.

Su Mu shook his head, put the matter aside for the time being, and continued walking towards the retreat point.

......

The woods were quiet. The last rays of the setting sun filtered through the treetops, casting dappled shadows on the ground. Occasionally, a breeze would rustle the leaves, like someone whispering in the distance.

Su Mu walked slowly, his gun holstered behind his back, his hand gripping the M500. Although he had a professional weapon, the advantage of a pistol in long-range combat remained irreplaceable... especially when dealing with agile monsters and when he didn't even have a rifle.

Another cat demon appeared ahead. It was level two, crouching on a tree root licking its paws, completely unaware of the approaching danger.

Su Mu raised the muzzle of his gun and aimed.

After installing the silencer, the sound of the shot was reduced to an extremely low level. The moment he pulled the trigger, there was only a short "thud," like someone gently tapping the table with their fist.

The bullet flew out of the gun and hit the cat demon's head precisely.

Then Su Mu saw something he had never seen before...

【-twenty four】

A number floated out from above the cat demon's head, bright red, and particularly conspicuous in the setting sun.

Critical hit. Weakness damage.

Su Mu paused for a moment, his finger hovering over the trigger guard.

Previously, when he fought monsters, the system would only display "Killed XXX, experience points +X", never showing the specific damage values. But now...

He glanced at his attribute panel, then at the corpse of the cat demon in the distance.

After level three, you can even see the damage numbers?

No, that's not right.

It wasn't an upgrade that brought about the change, but a job change. After changing jobs, more data-driven information was unlocked.

Shoot directly at it -40 points of critical damage.

This confirms Su Mu's previous guess about the firepower.

This also confirms the idea that the real starting point for survival is after changing jobs.

Su Mu took a few more steps forward and found another cat demon. It was level one, rather small, and was dozing off on a rock.

He raised his hand and fired a shot.

【-twenty four】

Another critical hit. 38 points of damage.

A level 1 cat demon has approximately 40 health points. A single shot with a normal attack to a vital point will kill it instantly.

As I walked and leveled up, my experience bar slowly climbed upwards.

When the ninth cat demon was killed, a gray box exploded on the ground.

Su Mu opened...

[Obtained: Long spear (gray) x1]

A dusty, gray spear appeared in his hand. The shaft was rough, and the tip was rusted, looking like the kind that had been dug out of a garbage dump.

[Long Spear (Gray)]

[Type: Class Weapon]

Sharpness: 6

【Durability: 30/30】

[Note: Lowest quality class weapon. But at least... it's a spear.]

Su Mu casually equipped it.

The spear vanished from his hand, as if merging into the void. With a thought, the spear materialized again from the void, appearing in his palm. It moved again, vanished. It moved again, reappeared.

It flows as naturally as breathing.

Su Mu looked at his hands, then at the dusty, gray spear, lost in thought.

Su Mu looked at his hands, then at the dusty, gray spear, lost in thought.

When he was equipped with a pistol before, it didn't have this feature.

Guns used to be drawn from the waist, put back in when finished, and manually reloaded. But now, this gray long gun, once equipped, can be summoned and retrieved at any time, like an extension of the body.

He opened the system panel and carefully looked at the description of the equipment slots.

[Class-specific weapon: Can be summoned/retrieved at any time after being equipped, without taking up inventory space. Summoning is limited to weapons specific to your class.]
