I Can Enhance My Talents Using Unlimited Skill Points - Chapter 422 - : Black Card

After Chen Yiming entered the suite, the artificial intelligence system started up automatically.

“Welcome to the Black Dragon Hotel, Mr. Chen. I’m your smart butler. If you need any help, you can call me. The smart butler can provide you with all kinds of services at any time.”

Chen Yiming looked up and nodded. “Help me fill the bathtub. I need to take a shower first.”

As soon as he finished speaking, the sound of running water came from the bathroom that was dozens of square meters large.

It was extremely fast and could be achieved with just a simple order.

!!

“There’s one bad thing about this system. It’s very easy to secretly gather information. Perhaps the entire process from the moment I entered the Black Dragon Hotel to the moment I entered the suite was secretly recorded.”

Chen Yiming couldn’t wait to use the network in the Hidden Dragon Galaxy, but he still pretended to be normal on the surface. He planned to take a shower first and follow the normal check-in procedures.

10 minutes later.

Chen Yiming walked out of the bathroom and sat on the sofa in the living room. He immediately gave the smart butler an order to go online.

On the back wall, a device projected a moving scene on the wall in front of the living room. A faint spiritual fluctuation spread out.

“So it’s a combination of spiritual power and the Internet.”

Chen Yiming was a little excited. After all, this was something that the technology on the blue planet couldn’t achieve. It was as if he had just come into contact with a game and was filled with curiosity.

Unfortunately, the technology involved was definitely a secret. From the fact that it was only allowed to be accessed in Flying Cloud City, it could be seen how confidential it was.

At this moment, the words “Second World” flashed across the screen, and a person with the same face and figure as Chen Yiming appeared.

The person representing Chen Yiming was born in a small house. It was about 10 square meters and had some simple furniture.

“Why does it really feel like we’re playing a holographic projection game?”

Just as Chen Yiming was in a daze, he vaguely sensed a rope-like spiritual connection extending from the top of the person’s head.

The interface emitted a spiritual fluctuation that did not require words. It was vaguely indicating for him to use his spiritual power to connect to it in the same way.

Soon, Chen Yiming did as he was told. He felt that the person in the projection was a clone of himself. His control over it was extremely smooth, and it moved around with his will.

After playing for a while, he thought to himself, “The threshold to connect to the so-called second world in this way is quite high. At the very least, it has to reach the level of materializing one’s spiritual power.”

“However, logically speaking, there shouldn’t be such a serious flaw. Could it be that none of the technological civilizations in the Hidden Dragon Galaxy can make a device that can support the reception of spiritual fluctuations?”

“Is this a deliberate choice, or is there another reason that no one knows about?”

After some thought, Chen Yiming thought that it was more likely that they chose this method on purpose.

The materialization of spiritual power was the prerequisite for mastering the power of nature. Perhaps at the level like the Hidden Dragon Galaxy, those who could be taken seriously would at least have to master the materialization of spiritual power.

Considering that the battlefield was in outer space, and that it was an endless space, supernatural power at the level of internal force was indeed not very useful.

Next, just as he was about to control the person in the video to open the door and walk out of the room,

the image of a shopping cart appeared by the door. It was difficult not to notice it since it had appeared so suddenly just before he was about to leave the house.

Seeing this, Chen Yiming cursed under his breath. “It seems that the logic of shopping is similar everywhere. The ultimate goal is to attract your attention.”

This time, he could only give up on going out for the time being. This was because he had similar thoughts to begin with. It was just that the shopping cart had not taken the initiative to pop out earlier.

As Chen Yiming thought about it, the projected scene changed. A login option appeared, including logging in as a tourist and logging in with his true identity.

Chen Yiming had never registered his identity in the Hidden Dragon Galaxy. The identification card from the blue planet would not work here and his true identity would not be found in the system.

There was only one choice, and that was to log in as a tourist from the Black Dragon Hotel.

“Beep!”

A notification sounded.

The scene changed, and a style similar to an online shopping center appeared. There were various types of cultivation techniques, secret techniques, potions, spaceships, and so on.

It could be said that there were all kinds of strange things being sold. As long as one had enough hidden dragon coins, they could even buy bodyguards (with restrictions) below the god realm.

Chen Yiming glanced around.

He noticed that there was a button flickering in the upper right corner of the screen. On it was a line that, when translated into the Daxia Kingdom’s language, meant, “You have a new email.”

With the thought of opening it, “Whoosh!”

The email opened, and a video immediately appeared.

“Hello, Mr. Chen.”

A middle-aged man in black appeared on the projection and said with a smile, “Welcome to the Second World from the Black Dragon Hotel. We have a 5% fee to ensure that the goods can be safely delivered to you.”

“If the goods are lost or damaged during the delivery, Black Dragon Hotel promises to return the full amount of the hidden dragon coins that have already been paid.”

“If you use the internal contribution points of the Black Dragon Hotel to buy it, our internal purchase price will be 10% off the original price.”

“In addition, those who make a huge contribution can enjoy a greater discount. The maximum is 50% off.”

Internal contribution points?

10% off?

50% off?

They were enticing him step by step. Although it was not said explicitly, there was an undercurrent of recruitment in the message.

When Chen Yiming saw this, he felt that there was a strong need for fighters here. This was the case for the Black Dragon Hotel, and also for Gao Shuai.

Perhaps something had happened in the Hidden Dragon Galaxy. For example, according to Gao Shuai, the price of mutant beasts with dragon bloodlines in the Hidden Dragon Galaxy was increasing exponentially.

Soon, he suddenly thought of something. “If that’s really the case, it seems like the tables have turned for the three dragon gods who have become subordinates of the humans. Who is protecting who seems to have changed.”

It seemed that there was more than one thing on the human spaceship fleet that would be targeted by others. Even the three dragon gods, who were equivalent to the captain of the bodyguards, were being watched.

Without sufficient strength, it would not be easy to truly blend in and head to the middle of the Hidden Dragon Galaxy.

Chen Yiming’s interest in continuing to surf the Internet decreased greatly.

Not only did he realize the new danger that the human spaceship fleet was facing, but his pockets were also empty. No matter what he liked, it was useless. He did not have any hidden dragon coins to spend.

…

Night fell.

Outside Flying Cloud City, the wilderness was dark and barren.

For the weak, such as those below the star condensation realm, there was a certain risk of being killed if they stayed outside the city. This was also the reason why spaceships had to be docked at the port.

For experts like Chen Yiming, he had stayed outside the city for a day and night before entering the city. Other than Gao Shuai, who took the initiative to approach him, no one else came to cause trouble for him.

In Flying Cloud City, the number of spaceships taking off and leaving was clearly much lower than during the day.

At night, due to the different preferences of the various alien species, some areas of the city were lit up in blue, and some areas were lit up in yellow.

At the same time, because of this difference, it seemed to have become much more lively.

Chen Yiming and Gao Shuai chose a spot on the top floor with the widest view and sat down. A long table was temporarily placed in front of them.

There were a few exquisite dishes on the long table. There was dinner, snacks, and a few pots of good wine.

To the two of them, replenishing their body’s energy already did not require the act of ingesting food. It was more like a process for them to show their mutual respect.

Before they even started eating, Gao Shuai placed a small object in the middle of the long table. Then, he smiled and said,

“Although I’m almost certain that no one will overhear our conversation tonight, let’s not make some taboo topics too obvious.”

Chen Yiming nodded. It seemed that Gao Shuai had successfully communicated with the clan behind him.

If they did not dare to go against a powerful existence like the three blue-skinned humans who were involved with the black tide, they would take the initiative to ask him to forget about it.

After making sufficient preparations, Gao Shuai started to pour two cups of wine.

He downed a cup and continued, “This is a terrible era. The tentacles of the black tide are extending to the living worlds of the various galaxies in the universe.”

“The Hidden Dragon Galaxy has always been relatively unstable because of the traces of the true dragon. Not only are there endless disputes between the internal factions, but there are also often interferences from the other galaxies.”

“This is especially true in recent years. News related to the true dragon has become a hot topic. It’s said that someone really found traces of the true dragon.”

“There are also organizations that want to gather a large number of creatures with the dragon bloodline and find the space where the true dragon was hiding when it was alive. Some people want to use the corpse of the true dragon to cultivate the physique of a true dragon and rise from this galaxy.”

At this point, he sighed. Contrary to the shrewdness he had always displayed, he felt a deep sense of helplessness. It was as if he had found himself in this situation and could only try to save himself.

Chen Yiming listened quietly.

A true dragon had died in the Hidden Dragon Galaxy?

What was a true dragon like? How strong was it? What level was it at?

The Daxia Kingdom on the blue planet had a saying that since ancient times, there had been descendants of dragons.

In the plate-shaped world, the treasure tree did not choose to nurture other terrifying creatures at the level of the fusion realm. Instead, it chose three dragons to create three dragon gods.

The relationship between the treasure tree and the female spirit was clearly not that simple.

The female spirit with the most mysterious background was trapped in the ring space, but she could still destroy the blue-skinned human she came into contact with.

The other two blue-skinned humans were so frightened that they ran away on the spot. It was a little like when humans wanted to escape from the blue planet when the black tide was about to descend.

Soon, Gao Shuai poured himself another cup and finished it in one gulp. With a serious expression, he said,

“The situation in the Hidden Dragon Galaxy is very unclear now. For some reason, the actual ruler, the territorial lord, has never stood up to deal with the invasion of the black tide.”

Chen Yiming’s expression remained unchanged.

Territorial lord?

It turned out that the ruler of the Hidden Dragon Galaxy was called the territorial lord. It was just that he did not know what level his cultivation had reached, and how much weaker the star condensation realm was compared to him.

However, the ruler of this galaxy had not appeared. Could it be that something had happened to him?

As soon as this thought appeared, Gao Shuai continued in a low voice, “The territorial lord might have left the Hidden Dragon Galaxy, so it’s not so easy to deal with that matter.”

“If the actual situation is extremely bad, we might be accused of being related to that thing and people might be sent to kill you and me.”

Chen Yiming nodded.

Gao Shuai was much more conservative than him. He only judged that the territorial lord had left the Hidden Dragon Galaxy for some reason and not that he might have been secretly killed.

However, no matter which was the truth, as long as the territorial lord, who was the actual ruler, did not show his face, the existing order would be superficial.

On the surface, for example, the spaceships were moving around normally, and the space-travel portal was open. No one dared to break the rules.

In secret, after reaching a certain level, people like Gao Shuai had already sensed the undercurrents and made various countermeasures in advance.

“Therefore, Brother, directly exposing the other party is really the last resort. We can secretly investigate the other party first. Perhaps we can use them to expose everything at the critical moment.”

Gao Shuai paused for a moment before explaining helplessly.

At this point, both sides’ requests were obvious.

In order to deal with the possible changes in the Hidden Dragon Galaxy, Gao Shuai used the resources he had to make allies. He wanted them to help each other in times of crisis.

On the surface, Chen Yiming wanted to expose the blue-skinned humans who were involved with the black tide.

Of course, he had only casually thrown it out to probe the other party’s background. In reality, he was not in a hurry to find trouble with the two blue-skinned humans who had escaped.

Every time the system upgraded his talent by one level, the Skill Points needed would increase greatly. This was Chen Yiming’s first consideration.

Otherwise, he would have sent the other party away long ago.

…

Next, Chen Yiming and Gao Shuai stopped talking about the black tide and started to eat.

Now, the two of them had truly gotten to know each other. Previously, Gao Shuai had taken the initiative to strike up a conversation with him. If Chen Yiming turned around and left, Gao Shuai couldn’t do anything about it.

Both sides had formed an invisible alliance, so they could discuss things now.

Soon, after eating and drinking his fill, Gao Shuai burped and said, “I’m full. How about we go down and take a look at Flying Cloud City? We can see winged elf beauties later.”

“Those with wings are different from ordinary people. They only show their faces once a month. This time, they are staying on the Flying Cloud Planet for a long time.”

As he spoke, he took out a black card from his pocket and passed it to Chen Yiming. His hand trembled a little when he retracted it.

“This is?”

The boat of friendship would shake if money was involved!

However, there was no pure friendship between Chen Yiming and Gao Shuai. They could barely be considered allies.

For an alliance of mutual interests, it was naturally not a problem to use the hidden dragon coins to pave the way. The more, the better.

“It’s anonymous.”

Gao Shuai explained further, “This black card isn’t from the Hidden Dragon Galaxy. It comes from the Space World Organization in the Second World.”

“The Space World Organization is a famous overlord faction in the universe. As long as this card is not artificially damaged, it is almost completely secure. From now on, you can use this black card to transfer money.”

Chen Yiming understood, but he was a little worried.

Although he did not know what exactly Gao Shuai’s family was doing, he could roughly tell that they were doing business in or between the galaxies. It was understandable that they could obtain such a black card.

On the other hand, the two of them had just formed an alliance of mutual interests, so it could be said that their trust in each other was still very weak. But they had already given away the black card, which was clearly not an ordinary precious item.

What he was worried about was Gao Shuai’s special ability.

It had to be known that Chen Yiming had only been waiting in the wilderness for an opportunity to enter the city. He hadn’t exposed anything, and Gao Shuai had come looking for him just like that.

The value of the black card represented how much the other party valued Chen Yiming.

Coincidentally, Chen Yiming didn’t want anyone to take him too seriously, especially since he hadn’t revealed his identity.

Gao Shuai seemed to have foreseen that Chen Yiming would be troubled and said,

“My special ability is actually a prophecy-based ability. However, there is a long interval between each use and it is limited by the strength of the target.”

“To the outside world, I’ve been using the excuse that it works one time out of ten to gloss things over and survive until now.”

“Besides, a year ago, when I wanted to see your face clearly, I was almost beaten to death by you. I had to lay down for nearly half a year before I recovered. Brother, you were too fierce.”

Good lord.

I almost killed you?

Chen Yiming’s head hurt.

Unexpectedly, he was not targeted by Gao Shuai only because he came to Flying Cloud Planet. Instead, he was already targeted by Gao Shuai when he was still on the blue planet a year ago.

This prophecy-based ability was too unbelievable. The distance between the two seemed to have disappeared.

However, there were usually many limitations to this ability, especially since it was easily countered. It was equivalent to playing with one’s life.

Thinking of this, he really wanted to shout, “Why didn’t you use your ability a few months later? At that time, with the enhancement from my spatial ability, you would definitely not be able to withstand the backlash and would have been killed.”

At this moment, unlike Chen Yiming, who had a headache, when Gao Shuai revealed his true special ability, he heaved a sigh of relief.

The two of them were undoubtedly very special. They had a large number of points about themselves which could not be exposed and needed to keep each other’s secrets. Now, their trust in each other had increased greatly.

This level of trust was based on the fact that they had their own secrets and were being controlled by the other party. No one was willing to let their relationship break down easily and turn against each other easily.

One second passed.

Two seconds passed.

Three seconds passed.

The black card was placed on the long table in front of Chen Yiming.

In the end, Chen Yiming picked up the black card and put it in his pocket.

Previously, he did not think much of Gao Shuai. After all, he had taken the initiative to approach him, so he did not know much about him. It was normal for him to be wary of being tricked.

At the same time, those who took the initiative often seemed to be cheap and were not valued, and were even guarded against.

However, it was gradually different now. He was good at fighting and had a strong ability to protect himself. Gao Shuai had a prophecy-based special ability.

With their complementary abilities, there were many things for which he no longer needed to behave like a headless fly. Due to the lack of sufficient information, he had to be careful and only dared to take the next step after confirming it.

At this thought, Chen Yiming also wanted to know how much Gao Shuai knew about him. Hence, he asked, “If you make another prophecy about me now, how much can you see?”

When Gao Shuai heard this, he hurriedly said, “Brother Chen, please let me off. The backlash from the prophecy-type special ability is much more serious than usual.”

“For example, the star condensation realm is considered the level of a god. It’s a completely qualitative change. Using my special ability on opponents at the fusion realm…”

“Under normal circumstances, the two sides are evenly matched. However, in reality, I will have to bear the backlash. There’s a chance that I will be killed by someone at the level close to that of a god.”

Chen Yiming nodded.

If that was the case, it was not impossible to deal with such a special prophecy-based ability. It was very easy for him to trick others because he could fight across realms.

Even if there were enemies with such special abilities in the future, they probably would not dare to use them recklessly.

Gao Shuai was probably really lucky. It had to be known that with the conditions on the blue planet, it was very easy to overlook him.

If the timeline was a little later, even before he added the space anchor talent, he would have defeated Gao Shuai. Of course, there would not be such a thing as the current relationship between the two of them.
