Neurolink System in the Modern World

I stretched lazily, feeling the warmth of the bed enveloping me.

"Status"

I actually leveled up last night, but I was too exhausted to check.

Now, as I reviewed my progress this morning, I couldn't help but feel thrilled by what I was seeing.

===========

"Holy shit, I've got way more attributes than I expected!" I exclaimed as I gazed at the  number of attributes I had gained. It seemed that reaching level 10 had been a real milestone.

I anticipated as much. My twisted system seemed to have a peculiar fondness for the number 10.

It kept granting me random skills whenever I reached 10 attributes. So, I wasn't entirely surprised when I reached level 10 and felt that something had indeed changed. It was clear that the system had more in store for me as I continued to evolve and grow.

Oh boy, do I love what I'm seeing right now. The excitement surged through me as I contemplated all the new possibilities .

With more attribute points at my disposal, I didn't have to be as cautious or stingy with them anymore.

"It's time to spend all of my wealth in one go," I grinned, feeling like a one day millionaire .

[Endurance 9 —> 10]

I felt a little rush of rejuvenation coursing through my body. It was as if my bones were becoming more solid.

At last, the notification I'd been waiting for appeared before me.

[Random Skill: Stone Body:  For 5 seconds, your body will be as hard as stone.]

[Upgrade level add 1  seconds per level ]

[Upgrade level add 3% hardness increase per level ]

[Level up to 30 to unlock Metal Body]

Seeing the Stone Body skill, I couldn't help but burst into laughter. This skill was seriously useful . If I managed to level it up high enough to attain a Metal Body, I wouldn't need to fear guns anymore.

It was a important skill for me because one of the reasons I had always been wary of the military was their firepower. But now, armed with this new survivability skill, I could start to feel more confident about facing them in the future.

Of course, I have no intention of actively seeking out trouble, but I'm just keeping this power in my back pocket, just in case I stumble upon a situation that can't be solved by my skill of suggestion alone. It's like having another life saving skills, and who doesn't love having one of those handy?

At the same time, I've become more cautious around the concept of Gifted. It's become clear to me that there are some seriously dangerous individuals hiding in the shadows, and I had been completely unaware of them all this time.

If these Gifted have truly unlocked more potential of their minds, there's a good chance that my power of suggestion might be severely limited against them. In that case, I need to start brainstorming and finding more creative ways to counter their abilities. It's like a high-stakes game of mental chess, and I'm determined to stay one step ahead.

[Stamina 4 —> 10]

I decided to boost my stamina as my next attribute. When I did this, I felt my heart rate increase, but it wasn't in a bad way. It was like my heart was becoming stronger and more robust. My breathing also improved noticeably, almost like my lungs were getting bigger and better at taking in air.

[Random Skill: Stamina Master:  For 10 seconds you will not feel any fatigue.]

[Upgrade level add 1 seconds per level ]

Another useful skill - it might not be overpowered, but it's certainly practical.

'Now let's increase my intelligence ,'

I plan to increase all my normal attributes into 10 and right now , Intelligence is the only thing lacking.

[Intelligence 4 —> 5]

[Intelligence 5 —> 6]

[Intelligence 6 —> 7]

[Intelligence 7 —> 8]

[Intelligence 8 —> 9]

[Intelligence 9 —> 10]

Unlike my other stats, I decided to increase my Intelligence one point at a time. I had noticed that there were side effects whenever I boosted my attributes, so it seemed only logical to assume that leveling up my intelligence, which was directly connected to my brain, might come with a lot of pain.

And I wasn't wrong. Increasing my intelligence did hurt, but it was bearable because I allowed myself to adapt gradually to the increase. Slowly but surely, I pushed through the discomfort, knowing that the rewards of a sharper mind would be well worth it in the end.

I could sense that I had become smarter, but the increase in intelligence wasn't immediately noticeable since I wasn't actively engaged in any challenging tasks at the moment. It was as if my mind had been sharpened, but the true extent of its capabilities would become apparent when put to the test.

But I wasn't too concerned about the immediate effects. Right now, I already considered myself quite intelligent, and I was more intrigued by the random skill that I would gain as a result of this intelligence boost.

I was practically banking on winning the lottery of skill selection here, expecting some amazing ability to fall into my lap and catapult my powers to a whole new level.

"Please, system, grant me an incredible ability!" I clasped my hands together and sent out a playful prayer, as if the system gods were listening and ready to indulge my whimsical request.

[Random Skill: ….]
