Chapter 67 Further Enhancement

The branch leader chosen by Wang Xiuyuan was trembling violently at that moment. Cold sweat wouldn't stop pouring down his face, and his lips had turned pale. It was hard for Wang Xiuyuan to miss such an obvious and pathetic display.

At this point, Wang Xiuyuan only needed to use a few simple methods, and this cowardly branch leader would definitely cooperate obediently without any accidents.

The outcome was exactly as Wang Xiuyuan had anticipated, but the process was somewhat unexpected.

At the very least, he hadn't expected this incredibly cowardly Peace Gang branch leader to have such a manly and brave side, nor did he expect the branch leader's wife and parents to choose death without hesitation just to secure a chance for their child to live on.

These were things Wang Xiuyuan had never considered. In his projections, the process would have been much more convoluted, but the result turned out the same.

Perhaps this is the greatness of familial love.

After the Dragon Head of the Peace Gang and a branch leader had one after another chosen to yield, what reason did the other members of the Peace Gang have to hold out to the end?

Being the first to surrender requires courage. Since the highest-ranking person in the Peace Gang and someone of equal status to the rest had both chosen to cooperate proactively, the others no longer felt much of a psychological burden.

Wang Xiuyuan's seemingly casual actions were actually carefully deliberated at every step; otherwise, things wouldn't have gone so smoothly.

As time passed, the branch leaders of the Peace Gang, the main backbone, and even the retired elders one by one confessed the whereabouts of the wealth they had accumulated over the years.

They received the same treatment as Hu Zhenxiang and the first branch leader who yielded to Wang Xiuyuan: each could designate one child under the age of seven to continue living.

Some people's children were older and did not meet this requirement. They begged Wang Xiuyuan for mercy, but Wang Xiuyuan remained unmoved.

In the end, after undergoing various forms of inhuman torture along with their families, such individuals still chose to cooperate, obediently handing over all their assets just to trade for a chance at a quick death.

It was precisely because of this typical case that all remaining members of the Peace Gang completely lost their will to resist.

【heavenly dao system】

Character: Wang Xiuyuan

Strength: 11, Stamina: 20, Intelligence: 13, Willpower: 13

(Average person's value is 10 points; human genetic limit is 100 points)

sin points: 73,500, merit points: 23,738

Wang Xiuyuan opened the system panel, and the soaring data for sin points and merit points pleasantly surprised him.

sin points had actually broken through from 0 to over seventy-three thousand, and merit points had increased by over twenty-three thousand. This was a textbook example of striking it rich in one go.

He had taken no small risk for tonight's affairs, so harvesting this many system points was within reason. It was definitely a worthwhile deal.

Wang Xiuyuan made a rough estimate. There were about a hundred and thirty family members of the executed gang members. On average, executing one family member of a gang member yielded over five hundred sin points.

Eliminating twenty-six deeply sinful gang members yielded a total of twenty-three thousand four hundred merit points. On average, killing one villain yielded nine hundred merit points.

Wang Xiuyuan knew that merit points certainly weren't calculated so simply. Because the gang members he killed tonight were all branch leaders and key heads of the Peace Gang, killing them would certainly yield more merit points than killing ordinary gang members.

It seemed that the difficulty of obtaining sin points and merit points was much greater than he had imagined. The road to earning system points was long and arduous!

The first thing everyone does after making money is to spend some to reward themselves, and Wang Xiuyuan was no exception. Without hesitation, he spent eleven thousand five hundred merit points to purchase nine points of Strength, seven points of Intelligence, and seven points of Willpower to strengthen his four dimensions, raising all of them to twenty points.

At this point, if he chose to continue strengthening his four-dimensional attributes, each attribute point purchased would cost one thousand merit points—the price had doubled compared to the previous stage. The remaining 12,238 merit points in the system were enough to raise one attribute to thirty points, plus two more points for other attributes.

The merit points earned through hard work certainly couldn't be left to gather dust in the account. After all, this stuff wouldn't generate interest. Naturally, spending them directly to strengthen the body was the most cost-effective.

Intelligence and Willpower were excluded first. Anyway, Wang Xiuyuan didn't need to laboriously study various kinds of knowledge right now, nor did he need to deliberately resist any special temptations. Values of twenty for Intelligence and Willpower were already far beyond ordinary people; for now, enough was enough.

Hard-earned merit points had to be spent where they mattered most. After all, the body is the capital of the revolution. How could one roam the world without a good physique? The only question was whether he should focus on the strength attribute or the Stamina attribute right now.

After much consideration, Wang Xiuyuan finally chose to prioritize strengthening his strength attribute. Who else could make miracles happen but great strength?

Strengthening the strength attribute would also simultaneously enhance his physical constitution. When a conflict occurred and hands were laid, strength would be more important than Stamina. Quickly resolving an opponent through superior strength was definitely safer than using Stamina advantages to wear them down.

He added ten points to Strength and then two points to Stamina, leaving 238 merit points.

After strengthening his body, Wang Xiuyuan immediately opened the sin mall. He had been salivating over the good things inside for a long time.

All sorts of super practical industry knowledge and experience, various awesome combat skills and fighting techniques, and weapon data that was ahead of its time—any of them was a good thing that money couldn't buy right now.

Any item in the sin mall, once obtained, could achieve the goal of making money quickly; the only difference lay in the method and speed of making money.

After finishing another review of the prices in the sin mall, Wang Xiuyuan couldn't help but feel a bit frustrated. He had originally thought over seventy thousand sin points was a lot, but he hadn't expected that he couldn't even afford the cheapest set of pistol technical data.

Because those things had to be purchased as a complete set; the system mall did not sell the technical data for any single model of pistol individually.

Taking the Glock pistol as an example, it had models from G17, G18, G19, G20 all the way to G39, totaling twenty-three different models. The same G17 model was further divided into G17, G17C, and G17L based on differences in the frame and barrel length.

The entire Glock pistol family had a total of twenty-three derivative models and some thirty to forty styles. If the technical data for Glock pistols could be purchased for a single model, the price would certainly be much cheaper, but the system did not allow this fragmented purchasing method.

At first, Wang Xiuyuan didn't quite understand, but on second thought, he quickly figured it out.
