Chapter 293 Sub ss


    Shi Tian had to rub his eyes twice to ensure that he wasn''t daydreaming and was looking at the status screen.


    He couldn''t believe that he had been trolled by the integrated chip.


    Though to be fair, it was never exined what the sub-ss was going to be.


    He merely assumed it would be another option to choose a secondary ss such as the Esper, Magus, irvoyant, or even the Berserker ss.


    s, there are never such amazing benefits in this godforsaken world. There are never any freebies without paying the equivalent price for it.


    "Were you enjoying my plight this entire time?" Scratching his hair slightly, Shi Tian subsequently asked if the integrated chip was enjoying his misery and naive mentality.


    Although there wasn''t an answer from the integrated chip, based on the empathetic bond he had built with it, Shi Tian was certain the integrated chip indeed enjoyed his plight.


    Shi Tian sighed, a mixture of exasperation and resignation. It seemed that his journey in this world was full of surprises, some pleasant, and others, like this one, more perplexing.


    "Well, I guess I should''ve known better than to expect things to be straightforward," he muttered to himself. "No point dwelling on it now."


    He began to explore the subss options more carefully, realizing that even if they weren''t what he expected, they might still offer valuable benefits. Each subss had its own unique description, and he needed to choose wisely.


    The options list had a total of 7 sub-sses to choose from.


    Mecha Operator: This subss specializes in piloting and controllingrge mechanical constructs, like mechs and vehicles. It enhanced proficiency in operating mechanical weaponry and systems.


    Tech Ninja: A stealthy and agile subss that focused on covert operations and sabotage. It offered skills in infiltration, espionage, and disabling electronic security systems.


    Gadgeteer: A subss for inventors and engineers. It provided the ability to create advanced gadgets and modify equipment, enhancing their functionality.


    Cyber Samurai: A blend of traditional martial arts and cutting-edge technology. This subss excelled in closebat, using high-tech weaponry and armor to devastating effect.


    Hacker Extraordinaire: This subss delved deep into the world of virtual hacking. It provided advanced skills for infiltrating digital systems, bypassing security, and gathering critical information.


    Steelskin: A tank-like subss focused on durability and defense. It provided enhanced resistance to physical and energy-based attacks, turning the character into a formidable, nearly unstoppable juggernaut.


    Master Tinkerer: A subss for those who wanted to push the boundaries of mechanical innovation. It allowed the creation of unique, experimental devices and mechs.


    As Shi Tian read through each option, he couldn''t help but be intrigued by the possibilities they offered. While they weren''t what he expected, they still represented avenues of growth and specialization within his mechanic ss.


    Not to mention, unlike the ss Talents, all options were amazing.


    "Damn it, how am I supposed to choose from this?" Shi Tian clicked his tongue in frustration.


    Based on the options this time and before, it was clear that the world had already invented mecha, something he had thought only existed in movies and novels.


    Yet he had never seen a mecha appear.


    Could it be that Gearits City was actually behind in terms of technological advances?


    Anyway, Shi Tian stopped his thinking from going awry again and focused back on the important decision ahead of him.


    Which subss to choose from?


    After much contemtion, Shi Tian made his choice. It was a decision that felt right, aligning with his recent experiences and his growing fascination with the world of hacking and virtual technology.


    "I choose Hacker Extraordinaire," he dered, the words carrying a sense of determination.


    Just when Shi Tian thought he was done making such a major decision that would affect his future path, the integrated chip suddenly gave a response– one that was extremely infuriating.


    Description: The host does not need to choose, given that the subsses are all avable for you. They are interchangeable and can be utilized simultaneously. All the host needs to do is upgrade them gradually for the subsses to be utilized to their maximum potential.


    Shi Tian''s face was twitching uncontrobly, and to make things worse, his anger quickly subsided thanks to the passive ability [Serene Calmness] activating.


    The ability prompted him to cool down, and despite the original anger he had felt earlier, he was able to breathe calmly without exerting much emotion.


    Of course, he could remain angry, but Shi Tian knew being angry at it wouldn''t help him at all.


    Taking another deep breath, Shi Tian asked softly, "So the subss is different from the ss Talent and does not need to be chosen. They are all avable to me and I can simply upgrade them equally, right?"


    Description: The host got it right. To make things simpler, there will not be any levels listed for the subss, but merely have them active. The efficiency of each subss would be increased once you did something equivalent to the subss exnation.


    "If that''s the case, then why did you not tell me from the start?" Shi Tian made a very awkward smile as he asked.


    Description: The host had sumbed to his own thinking and believed himself to be intelligent. Hence, there was no point in exining when the host wished to make a decision.


    Nodding his head, Shi Tian might not be able to hear the tone, but it was quite clear that the integrated chip was taunting him.


    Sure enough, it was indeed his fault toe to the conclusion that he could only choose one subss.


    Never once did the status screen instruct him to choose one, but because the ss Talent section only allowed him to choose one, Shi Tian had unconsciously thought the sub-ss would be the same.


    "There''s no need to be so polite, IC." Shi Tian smiled briefly. "Next time, if you see me wasting time for no apparent reason, you can kindly remind me so that time won''t be wasted." He added, subtly warning the integrated chip.
