Chapter 26: [Dressing Up for the Cool Night]

When the notification sound finally ended.

Tang Song leaned back against his chair, his fingers trembling slightly, momentarily speechless.

Charisma 30—the starting value in the game.

He hadn't held high expectations originally, thinking the rewards would be on the level of a beginner's gift pack.

He never expected them to be this abundant.

Suppressing his racing heart, he entered the system warehouse to check the details of each reward in turn.

【Skill Upgrade Card (LV1) * 1】: Upon use, allows the selection of one LV1 skill to be upgraded.

【One Million Yuan Startup Fund * 1】: Upon use, grants 1,000,000 RMB in cash. This fund can only be used for entrepreneurship or investment-related projects.

【Corporate Office Space * 1】: Upon use, grants ownership of a high-end office space.

"Beep, beep, beep—" The horn of the Wuling Hongguang was pressed forcefully.

Tang Song's face flushed, his gaze burning with intensity.

One million yuan in startup funds!

An office space with property rights!

He knew that his life would undergo a complete metamorphosis today!

He had always known that his dreams would come true; as long as he increased his charisma, he could inherit the massive assets from the game.

But it wasn't until this very moment that he truly felt as if he had been reborn from another life.

Tang Song leaned back in his chair, staring at the rolling clouds outside the window, silently feeling his racing heartbeat.

After a long while, once he finally calmed down.

He selected 【One Million Yuan Startup Fund * 1】 and used it immediately.

"Ding-dong—" The phone screen lit up.

"[China Merchants Bank] Your account ending in 6800 received a deposit of 1,000,000.00 RMB on April 17 at 11:49."

Tang Song stared at that string of numbers for a while, then selected 【Corporate Office Space * 1】 and used it immediately.

"Ding! You have obtained a 200-square-meter office in Yunxi Mansion. Please proceed to Yunxi Property Management Co., Ltd. to claim it."

"Yunxi Mansion! 200 square meters!" Tang Song's pupils trembled slightly.

He naturally knew of Yunxi Mansion—the top-tier office building in Yancheng, a 5A Grade-A premier landmark located in the heart of Yancheng's central district, a five-star commercial hub, and a land of flowing gold.

The surrounding administrative, financial, transportation, tourism, shopping, and leisure atmospheres were mature; it was the core business stage and commercial territory of Yancheng.

Many branch offices of top-tier companies in Yancheng were located there.

After returning from the Imperial Capital, he had once interviewed at Yunxi Mansion and was deeply impressed by the environment.

To own the property rights to a 200-square-meter office there was equivalent to owning a hen that laid golden eggs.

Even if he did nothing at all, as long as he rented the office out, he would earn over 40,000 yuan in rent every month.

He had worked for three years, and after deducting the money sent home, he had only managed to save a total of 40,000 yuan. His biggest dream was to settle down and buy property in Yancheng.

Now, by inheriting the game assets, he had achieved it in one giant leap!

Compared to these two rewards, the 【Skill Upgrade Card (LV1)】 seemed somewhat insignificant.

However, he happened to have the passive skill 【Godly Aura】, which could be upgraded directly to LV2. He wondered if it would trigger new aura effects.

For him in this early stage of development, this was also a very important boost.

Taking a deep breath, he used his strong lung capacity to quickly clear his head.

He selected 【Skill Upgrade Card (LV1)】 and used it immediately.

Designated 【Godly Aura (LV1)】, confirm!

"Ding! Passive skill 【Godly Aura】 has been upgraded to LV2."

【Godly Aura (LV2)】: Optimizes sleep quality, helping the player enter deep sleep faster for a better sleep experience. Excellent sleep can gradually repair damaged skin and prevent or remove dark circles and eye bags.

(Aura Effect: Your first smile of the day can earn a 400 RMB cash reward, with a 1% chance of obtaining an additional critical hit reward.)

[Note: This skill can be upgraded]

Awesome!

The cash reward doubled, and the critical hit chance increased tenfold!

Of course, the secondary functions were also more powerful and practical.

Due to long-term neglect of skincare, combined with his oily skin, Tang Song had some blemishes like acne scars, acne, and blackheads on his face. To fix them, he would have had to rely on chemical peels, but peels would damage the skin's stratum corneum.

This repair effect was like rain in a drought!

Dark circles and eye bags had also been a constant headache for him, something he could only manage through long-term conditioning or makeup. Now, as long as he ensured good sleep, he could gradually eliminate them, saving him a vast amount of time and energy.

After finishing the inventory of the three rewards in the warehouse, Tang Song immediately returned to the main interface and entered the newly appeared module, the 【Dress-up Center】.

His fourth reward, 【Dress-up - Cool Night Breeze】, was inside.

The familiar, dazzling interface appeared before his eyes, with an illustration card of a set of clothing displayed in the upper left corner.

He touched the card lightly with his mind.

The illustrated clothing flashed and drifted out, floating quietly in front of him.

It was like naked-eye 3D or ultra-clear AR; every detail was clearly visible, and it could rotate 360 degrees, which was extremely stunning.

At the same time, the detailed information of the outfit was displayed.

【Dress-up - Cool Night Breeze】: Constitution +2, Agility +1, includes cold-resistance effect.

Set Composition: Apricot knit cardigan + White T-shirt + Dark gray casual pants + White sneakers.

Attached Effect: Cool Night Breeze (When wearing this set, if the player is outdoors at night in the wind, a special aura will be triggered, making them appear cold, tranquil, and melancholic.)

[Note: Players are requested to purchase and manufacture the components of this set in the real world. The closer the style, color, and details, the closer the effect will be.]

No wonder the display effect was so good; it turns out it's just giving me a blueprint!

Tang Song couldn't help but complain inwardly.

In the game, as long as you select the clothes and click "wear," it takes effect; it's nowhere near as troublesome as having to find similar clothing yourself.

Fortunately, online shopping is very convenient nowadays; it shouldn't be too hard to piece it together if he looked carefully.

After admiring his first outfit for a while, Tang Song tried clicking 【Wear】.

"Ding! 【Dress-up - Cool Night Breeze】 has been equipped."

Immediately after, the light screen automatically jumped back to the main interface.

In the center of the screen, the 3D model, which previously only wore shorts, finally had its own clothes.

As expected of a system selection, the styling was impeccable—it suited him even better than the recommendations from netizens and looked very handsome.

At the same time, a line of small text appeared below the character.

【Current Outfit Compatibility: 10%, All effects active at 10%】

Tang Song looked down; today, only the color and style of his pants were close to the set components, so 10% was normal.

He clicked the 3D model to view his personal information.
