Superpowered Love Academy

【Trait A - Forsaken by the Holy Light】: The Holy Light betrayed her.

【Characteristic B - Rejecting Thorns】: Even with a beautiful appearance, she is a rose with thorns, and ordinary people cannot approach her.

[Introduction: A girl born burdened with the world's malice, unable to withstand the baptism of light, can only reject everything and merge into darkness.]

The sudden list of information surprised Zuo Le, but what surprised him even more was Tu Mi's exaggerated characteristics.

And how much she likes him...

Zuo Le checked the value repeatedly. It was -75, not 75. He wasn't mistaken; there was a difference of 150 points between the two values.

No, this person harbors such great malice towards me?

He didn't seem to have done anything, did he? Could it be related to her characteristics?

[The enemy of all things] [The thorn of rejection].

As for what to do with her next...

Zuo Le recalled the contents of the missing person notice. She should be a descendant of a Lightbearer or a church family. Undoubtedly, such an identity would be troublesome.

Zuo Le learned many lessons from his past experiences.

He was very clear about one thing: never get involved in other people's affairs, especially when he didn't have enough power to do so.

To see someone "dying" and not offer assistance.

The word "death" in it is not death in the literal sense.

Instead, when faced with a situation, when confronted with the disasters and predicaments of others, one should rationally choose not to intervene.

Once intervention occurs, it is easy to encounter the energy pouring and blessing from the high position to the low position. If the tilt and blessing are not correct, it will inevitably backfire.

For example, a young lady from a high-ranking family, facing off against a nobody like him who has just transmigrated.

It's easy to be crushed to death by a family elder...

With incomplete information and numerous other commitments, it would be unwise to blindly help someone simply because they are beautiful and attractive.

Unless... the other person asks for help.

Asking for help and taking the initiative to help are two completely different concepts.

Because the other party asked for help, there is a cause. Only with a cause can we make a judgment on whether to help or not within our capabilities, but it is just a judgment.

However, the other party did not speak, which was just right.

"Hey Tu Mi, you barged into my dorm and ate my food without my permission. I don't want to pursue that, since it's not worth much anyway. Now that you've finished eating, shouldn't you leave?"

Hearing Zuo Le tell her to leave, Tu Mi paused, her previously listless gaze suddenly becoming evasive, appearing somewhat flustered.

Ignoring her stiff body, her biting lip, and her -78 favorability rating, Zuo Le proactively opened the door for her.

Tu Mi didn't pester them and stubbornly stayed there.

After a standoff of about 10 seconds, she took the initiative to walk out.

The girl's back view was dejected, and she looked a bit like an abandoned stray dog, but Zuo Le did not let her pitiful appearance tempt her to be a saint.

In some ways, he's not even as good as a stray dog ​​now.

After seeing off this big shot, Zuo Le finally breathed a sigh of relief. Compared to other places, only the dormitory, a private space, gave him a little sense of security.

Only without interference from others could he concentrate on organizing his memories.

"Let's begin."

The process of organizing his memories took a long time, from afternoon until evening, before he finally pieced together most of the scattered fragments of memory.

The original owner was an orphan.

He was adopted by Zuo Zhengming, a blacksmith in Penghu District, when he was a child. There were four children in his family, two boys and two girls. He was the second oldest and was named Zuo Le.

He was admitted to Jingkong Academy at the age of eighteen. When he first entered the academy, he was hailed as a genius because of his outstanding academic performance.

After more than two years of enrollment, he had neither made any theoretical contributions to spiritualism nor summoned any spirit beasts. The halo and praise had long since faded, and his personality had become taciturn as a result.

Simply put, he was once a genius, but later faded away.

So what if it's gone? That's fine. The problem is that the original owner wasn't willing to accept it.

In his quest for other ways to become stronger, he explored taboos and secrets in books, began searching for resources and channels in the black market, and got to know some underworld figures.

Ultimately, lured by a banned book called "Void Summoning," he joined the Black Snake Gang in Penghu District.

His pledge of allegiance to the gang was to perform a void summoning in the academy's psychic classroom, leaving them with a psychic imprint.

Obviously, the result was not good.

However, from Zuo Le's perspective, the original owner's void summoning did not fail; he simply died.

Chapter 4 Talent: Void Walk

"The world of 'Darkest Hour'..."

Although Zuo Le had just started the game, fortunately, the opening CG cutscene couldn't be skipped, so he watched it with a heavy heart.

In a certain period of the old era, an unknown celestial body, the Dark Star, crashed to Earth, scorching the heavens and boiling the seas, withering all things, and utterly destroying the old era.

Since then, humanity has entered the Dark Ages.

The sky is forever shrouded in gray embers, the sun is merely a blurry patch of light, and the earth is covered with polluted zones known as the "Dark Zones," where strange creatures corrupted and distorted by the Dark Star roam.

However, there are also some extraordinary individuals among humanity who have also gained power from the shattered dark star.

Superhuman physique, raging elements, bizarre talents, and light.

Some of these powerful light-elemental superhumans, with their ability to banish darkness, rebuilt their city-states, erected high walls, and isolated themselves from external dangers.

This group of extraordinary individuals calls themselves—Lightbearers.

They believed in the Three Eternal Commandments and established the Council of the King of Cinder to commemorate the calamities suffered by mankind.

Reverence: Always remember the disaster brought by the fall of the dark star, and never abuse power.

Passing on the torch: Every Lightbringer has an obligation to nurture the next generation.

Guardian: The sole purpose of power is to protect mortals, not to lord it over them.

Through strict discipline and immense power, humanity has gradually regained its glory after nearly a century of development.

For the most part, these people were fine; they maintained order in this terrible era and even ensured the continuation of the human race.

But power always breeds corruption, and absolute power corrupts absolutely.

We have now reached a point where social conflicts are at their most intense...

Having recalled this much, Zuo Le had a general understanding of his current situation.

He needs to adapt to his environment and identity as soon as possible, and also deal with the threat from the Black Snake Gang. He cannot place his hopes on the fact that someone in this world will crack down on organized crime.

Generally speaking, it's not easy to break free from any gang in the world.

In order to prepare for the meeting with the Black Snake Gang that night, he felt he should come up with some ways to protect himself.

In this world, the dividing line between the extraordinary...

The thickest line is drawn between spiritual masters and martial artists.

Spiritual masters use spiritual power as their core, and through meditation, they incorporate free-floating dark star particles in the air into their own bodies, transforming them into controllable spiritual power reserves.

They excel at ranged, area-of-effect, and elemental power release.

Fireballs, ice spikes, and lightning bolts are all standard techniques used by spiritual masters.

The advantage of a Spirit Master lies in burst damage and range, but its weaknesses are equally obvious: it is physically fragile and has slow close-range reaction. Once someone gets close to it, most low-level Spirit Masters cannot last more than three seconds.

A level 1 Spirit Master can even be killed by a pistol, but at level 2 they will learn defensive techniques that allow them to resist small-caliber firearms.

As for higher levels, Zuo Le didn't know...

Martial artists take a different path.

They do not pursue the storage of spiritual energy, but instead use breathing techniques to integrate dark star particles into their bones and muscles.

Transform energy into 'qi'.

Qi can strengthen the physical body and enhance strength, speed, reaction, and perception.

Low-level martial artists already possess the ability to dodge some bullets through reflexes, and at level 2, they can even withstand small-caliber bullets with their bare hands.

At lower ranks, martial artists have an absolute advantage over spirit masters, but once they reach higher ranks, the destructive power and status of spirit masters are far superior to those of martial artists.

At the same time, martial artists consume fewer resources, have lower talent requirements, and have a high success rate.

It belongs to the category of those with exceptional 'cost-effectiveness'.

In addition, there are some scattered branches, such as psychics.

This profession hangs on the edge of the spiritualist system, relying on summoned creatures to fight. The Lightbearers are a separate school, using a mix of spiritual power and holy light, making them both offensive and defensive, but that's already on another level.

It can retrieve all of the original owner's memories...

He discovered that this person was still stuck in the stage of thinking, "If I just contract a powerful creature, I'll be powerful."

He has almost no spellcasting ability, combat skills, or physical attributes.

In short, it can be summed up in two words.

"waste!"

Zuo Le couldn't help but curse.

Continuing to ponder ways to improve his strength, he immediately thought of the affection lists that appeared between the two girls after he transmigrated.

That thing was probably some kind of cheat code brought by time travel?

Besides affecting a girl's favorability and characteristics, are there any other effects?

Zuo Le pondered for a moment, then closed his eyes and tried to activate the favorability ability that had appeared earlier.

"Favorability?"

"system?"

I strained so hard to poop, but there was no reaction from the people around me.

"never mind."

Just as Zuo Le was about to give up, his vision blurred for a moment, as if something flashed and disappeared in his eyes.

Although Zuo Le didn't see the specific content clearly, he was certain that the information he had just received contained numbers and borders.

"data?"

He carefully recalled the feeling he had just experienced; his body was relaxed, and his attention was scattered.

It's a bit like being in a daze.

Zuo Le kept exploring, and before he knew it, his vision appeared like a screen that had short-circuited and reconnected, displaying information.

【Zuo Le】

Strength: 0.691 (Injured)

Agility: 0.742 (when injured)

Constitution: 0.621 (injured)

Spiritual power: 6.471

【Trait E - Void】: You come from the void, and therefore possess the characteristics of a void creature. Try touching the void.

[Introduction: Unbound by the rules of this world, possessing infinite possibilities, yet unable to receive rewards from the gods.]

Upon seeing the suddenly appearing information panel, Zuo Le clenched his fist.

"This attribute shows a serious imbalance in academic performance..."

As for its characteristics, it's not even as good as the several characteristics of Tu Mi, let alone the sweet Tang Yuan.

However, this characteristic of his does provide some useful information.

"Void".

Zuo Le didn't know how to touch the void, but that didn't matter. He would try, keep trying, until he succeeded.
