Earlier, it was mentioned that Lu Ye had undergone professional training and wouldn’t laugh, no matter how funny it got.
But this "golden finger" (special advantage) still made Lu Ye’s mouth curve up uncontrollably.
"I knew it, every transmigrator has to come with their own cheat."
"Let me see, what’s the point of this system!"
A faint display appeared in front of Lu Ye, similar to an attribute panel in a virtual game.
[Current BP Points: 1720]
[Click to view details and the sources of BP.]
[Video playback over 1 million views, BP +1000]
[Ate a ‘standard-grade’ Farfetch'd Set, BP +20]
"I can get the first few…but eating a Farfetch'd Set gives BP too!?"
[BP points, also known as 'Battle Points,' can be gained by consuming quality food, enhancing the host's physique and providing equivalent BP points.]
[Completing system tasks, unlocking achievements, Pokémon battles, and meeting hidden conditions can all earn BP points.]
The system responded mechanically, emotionless.
Lu Ye rubbed his forehead in frustration, "And what’s the link between BP and video views?"
[Using the internet to expand influence is one of the essential skills of a legendary Trainer.]
“Huh? I don’t even want to be a Trainer!”
After a long silence, the system slowly displayed a new line of text.
[This system is also called the ‘Legendary Trainer Development System.’]
[Once bound, there are no returns. Please acknowledge.]
“Can’t you be a little more reasonable?”
Lu Ye’s mouth twitched, and he finally sighed deeply.
"Fine, I guess being a streamer also earns BP, so it’s all the same in the end."
"From today on, this system will be called the 'Ultimate Streamer Development System.' Who agrees, who objects?"
[Ding—Would you like to spend 1000 BP points to rename the system to 'Ultimate Streamer Development System’?]
"I only have just over 2000 BP, and renaming costs 1000? You’re greedy!"
Lu Ye replied confidently, “No!”
"It's just a broken system anyway. Is it really going to force me to be a Trainer?"
The system was silent for a moment, then proactively opened a lottery interface.
[Available Functions: Ten-Consecutive Draw, Store... First Ten-Consecutive Draw guaranteed SR, limited-time discount.]
"Are you being run by the same developers as the Pig Factory or Goose Factory? Do you want me to top up with $1 and unlock a battle pass?"
Frustrated, Lu Ye couldn’t resist and tapped the "Ten-Consecutive Draw" option.
"The lottery interface is flashy, at least…"
[Host can set the visual format of the Ten-Consecutive Draw, options include: box opening, drawing talismans, briefcase...]
"Are you sure this won’t cause copyright issues?" Lu Ye’s mouth twitched, "Isn’t this the CSGO crate-opening screen?"
"And there’s R6S and Onmyoji...even Hearthstone and Rhode Island’s UI?”
[Parallel world. No matching necessary.]
Lu Ye sighed, “Fine, set it to Hearthstone card pack style.”
[UI has been set. Drop rates displayed. Host, please review.]
[Drop Rate: 60% White Common, 30% Blue Rare, 9% Purple Epic, 1% Orange Legendary]
Not sure where to even start with his complaints, Lu Ye rubbed his forehead and said:
"They even disclosed drop rates...keeping up with current events, I see."
"Whatever, let’s try a Ten-Consecutive Draw to test the waters."
[Spend 1000 BP for one Ten-Consecutive Draw?]
Two antique-looking card packs appeared out of thin air. Lu Ye grabbed one, and began spinning it clockwise.
Glittering fragments scattered, and the pack opened by a mysterious force, releasing five cards into the air.
Out of five cards, only one was rare: the nutrient-rich "Moomoo Milk."
[Moomoo Milk: 100% nutritious milk, consumable by both humans and Pokémon. (Also a Tauros favorite.)]
The other three common items were two Oran Berries that restored a small amount of health and a Pecha Berry to cure poison.
"As expected, just white and blue. Still a non-luck streak here."
With a shrug, Lu Ye opened the second card pack.
After three ordinary cards, the system suddenly blurted out in a bizarrely loud tone.
"Do you have to shout so loud?!"
Lu Ye glanced at the card, suddenly stopping.
[Japanese Lv3: You can proficiently use Japanese, accurately applying various dialects, honorifics, accents, etc. (Don’t shoot! I’m one of you!)]
For a moment, Lu Ye felt a sudden influx of knowledge in his mind, and he immediately put it to use.
“F (in both Chinese and Japanese)”
From the system’s guidance, Lu Ye had a general understanding of the skill levels.
Lv1 is achievable with regular effort, Lv2 is a commendable level of proficiency.
Lv3 represents industry expertise, Lv4 is cross-disciplinary, and Lv5 is the peak of human capability.
With Japanese Lv3, it wouldn’t be hard for Lu Ye to write something in the style of Natsume Soseki in Japanese.
Though that sounded tiring, he planned to copy a novel from one of the literary masters someday.
"Just one last card left."
After calming himself, Lu Ye flipped over the final card.
The system roared again, but this time, the sound was sweet music to Lu Ye’s ears.
I thought I got a Legendary; why are you hollering?
The so-called Gold Rare turned out to be a can of alkaloid, also called "Speed Enhancer," a suspicious blue beverage.
[Speed Enhancer (Enhanced Version): Temporarily boosts a Pokémon’s speed stats; enhanced version has stronger effects. Not recommended for human consumption.]
Although it stated "not recommended for human use," the description practically begged Lu Ye to chug it down.
After a long deliberation, Lu Ye finally stashed the suspicious blue drink into his cabinet.
"I’ll try it on my first Pokémon after I catch one..."
"If it’s from the system, it should be fine. Even if I’m not a Trainer, it wouldn’t hurt to run a bit faster."
"Speaking of which, I still need to get my hands on a Poké Ball. I’ll head to the Pokémon store tomorrow."
With 720 BP left, Lu Ye decided to save up for another Ten-Consecutive Draw when he reached 1000 points.
Before bed, Lu Ye downed the Moomoo Milk in one gulp, smacking his lips, "A bit sweet."
[Drank ‘delicious-grade’ Moomoo Milk, BP +40]
[First-time drink, host’s physique +1!]
