50: Chapter 50 Supernatural Ability Proficiency Enhancer?
Su Yuyan shook her head, her gaze firm.
She took a deep breath and made her decision.
"I am willing to sincerely acknowledge you and become your partner."
Su Yuyan said calmly.
Lin Yuan looked at her and nodded.
"Very good."
He turned, ready to leave.
"Come with me; I will provide you with shelter."
Su Yuyan and Lin Wanrou exchanged a glance and followed behind him.
Su Yuyan's gaze was complex.
From now on, as long as they cooperated sincerely, she would be able to survive and even become stronger.
Reason had once again triumphed over emotion.
...
The 88th floor of the Xingyao Group building, the presidential suite.
It still retained the luxury from before the Apocalypse.
Leather sofas, crystal chandeliers, and floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the entire Jiang City.
Su Yuyan walked to the floor-to-ceiling window, looking at the city ruins covered in ice and snow outside, complex emotions surging in her heart.
Once, she was the business queen of this city, looked up to and pursued by countless people.
But now, she had to rely on a strong man to survive...
However, reason told her that this choice was not wrong.
This man was too strong.
Following him was the most correct decision!
Lin Yuan sat on the sofa, looking at Su Yuyan in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, and said calmly:
"Come over, let's discuss future cooperation plans."
Su Yuyan took a deep breath and turned to walk towards Lin Yuan.
Although she was a business queen before the Apocalypse, she had to adjust her mindset now.
At this moment, she had to discuss the future with Lin Yuan in the capacity of a partner.
Lin Yuan began to discuss future development plans with Su Yuyan.
Su Yuyan displayed her business acumen and strategic vision.
The two had an in-depth exchange, discussing many issues regarding survival and development in the Apocalypse.
Lin Wanrou listened from the side, occasionally adding some opinions.
...
A few hours later.
Lin Yuan had a deeper understanding of Su Yuyan's abilities.
Su Yuyan also gradually understood Lin Yuan's thoughts and plans.
After this in-depth exchange, Su Yuyan truly began to acknowledge Lin Yuan in her heart.
This man was not only powerful but also had a very clear mind.
Following him would indeed allow her to go further.
Just then, the system prompt arrived.
【Ding! Congratulations to the Host for successfully collecting the goddess: Su Yuyan (Lev.1)!】
【Detected that goddess Su Yuyan's sincere acknowledgment has been achieved】
【Goddess Information:】
【Name: Su Yuyan】
【Age: 27】
【Identity: President of Xingyao Group, business queen】
【Superpower: E-rank Lightning Element — Lightning Control】
【Affinity: Lev.1】
【New item unlocked: Superpower Proficiency Booster!】
A hint of surprise flashed in Lin Yuan's eyes.
A new item?
Superpower Proficiency Booster?
What is this thing?
Lin Yuan's heart stirred, and he immediately checked the detailed information of the new item.
【Item Name: Superpower Proficiency Booster (Unique)】
【Effect: The Host can select one of their own Superpowers; the proficiency of that Superpower will permanently and automatically increase at a tiny rate every second!】
【Note 1: This item does not need to be consumed or used; it automatically takes effect after being unlocked】
【Note 2: This booster's effect increases as the goddess's affinity increases, along with the Superpower's improvement speed】
【Note 3: This effect is permanent, and the selection cannot be changed; please be careful!】
【Currently selectable Superpower: E-rank Wood Element — Life Control】
【Do you wish to select now?】
Lin Yuan stared at this description, completely stunned.
The next second, his breathing became rapid!
This item...
It was fucking heaven-defying!!!
Superpower proficiency automatically increasing?
And it's permanent, increasing every second?
What does this mean?
It means he doesn't have to do anything, and his Superpower will automatically become stronger!
No need to cultivate, no need to fight, no need for any effort!
As long as time passes, his Superpower will automatically grow and upgrade!
This is simply becoming stronger by lying flat!
Lin Yuan took a deep breath, forcing himself to calm down.
He carefully studied every note of the system.
"Increasing at a tiny rate every second..."
Although the single increase is small, it adds up over time!
One point per second, 86,400 seconds in a day, 2.59 million seconds in a month, 31.53 million seconds in a year!
This continuous improvement, given time, would be absolutely terrifying!
And.
A sharp light flashed in Lin Yuan's eyes.
"This booster's effect increases as the goddess's affinity increases, along with the Superpower's improvement speed!"
This was the most monstrous part!
Doesn't this mean that the higher his affinity with Su Yuyan, the faster the Superpower increases?
If he raised Su Yuyan's affinity to Lev.10, how fast would the Superpower increase?
This was simply a perfect virtuous cycle!
The more Lin Yuan thought about it, the more excited he became, his heartbeat accelerating.
But soon, Lin Yuan's reason returned.
Calm down.
Must calm down.
Although this item was heaven-defying, it had a fatal limitation.
【Note 3: This effect is permanent, and the selection cannot be changed; please be careful!】
He could only choose one Superpower!
And once selected, it could never be changed!
This limitation instantly sobered Lin Yuan up from his excitement.
Deep contemplation flashed in his eyes.
Choosing the Wood Element Superpower now, while safe...
Is it really the best choice?
Lin Yuan recalled the process of awakening his Superpower today.
Wood Element, Life Control.
Abilities included: stimulating plant growth, controlling vines for combat, accelerating life recovery.
It was indeed very practical, especially the life recovery ability, which was an excellent life-saving means.
But...
Lin Yuan frowned.
The Wood Element's attack power didn't seem very strong.
Today, dealing with the giant eagle relied on vine strangulation, which was a physical attack.
If not for his heaven-defying physique.
He would never have been able to kill the giant eagle!
Although the Wood Attribute Superpower was also very strong, compared to other elemental types...
Lightning type had terrifying lightning attacks, fast speed, and strong destructive power.
Fire type had high-temperature burning, area attacks, and equally amazing power.
Space type was said to be able to tear space, teleport, and even create space cages...
Time type was even the legendary top-tier Superpower, capable of slowing down time, accelerating oneself...
Compared to these, the Wood Element's combat power was indeed a bit... mild.
And.
A sharp light flashed in Lin Yuan's eyes.
As long as he found the seven-colored snowflake again!
He might be able to obtain a powerful Superpower.
And through the Superpower levels, Lin Yuan finally understood.
The Evolved Beast he killed to get the best demon core he had obtained before must have been E-rank.
What if he killed a D-rank Evolved Beast and used a D-rank demon core?
Would it be possible to awaken a D-rank Superpower directly?
Or even... awaken the legendary Space type or Time type?
Lin Yuan's heartbeat accelerated.
If he really awakened the Space type or Time type, that would be truly heaven-defying!
At that time, if he used the Superpower Proficiency Booster to select the Space or Time type...
Then his growth rate would reach an unimaginable height!
But if he chose the Wood Element now...
What if he really awakened the Space or Time type later, wouldn't he regret it to death?
Lin Yuan fell into deep conflict.
On one side, it was the safe Wood Element Superpower.
Select it now, immediately start automatic improvement, steady and solid.
On the other side, it was the unknown possibility.
Gamble on it; he might be able to obtain a stronger Superpower.
But what if he lost the gamble?
What if the Superpower awakened using a D-rank demon core wasn't even as good as the Wood Element?
Wouldn't that be a waste of precious time?
The Superpower Proficiency Booster was improving every second; choosing a day earlier meant becoming stronger a day earlier.
If he wasted days or even weeks waiting for an unknown Superpower...
The lost proficiency could never be recovered!
Lin Yuan rubbed his temples, feeling a bit of a headache.
This choice was too difficult.
It concerned his future in the Apocalypse.
Choose correctly, and he would be invincible.
Choose incorrectly, and he would regret it forever.
Just as Lin Yuan was deep in thought.
Su Yuyan recovered, sitting up weakly from the bed.
Seeing Lin Yuan frowning in thought, she asked cautiously:
"What... are you thinking about?"
Lin Yuan returned to his senses, glanced at her, and said calmly:
"Nothing. You should rest first."
He paused and continued:
"By the way, come back with me to my villa tomorrow; you and your secretary will both live with me."
Su Yuyan bit her lip and nodded:
"I... understand..."
