First update,

...

In a week's time, Qin Fang had not been wasting time for nothing. Today, he finally achieved a great accomplishment by assembling a gun that still looked a bit strange in appearance and even managed to make an extremely poor-performing silencer.

His hands moved swiftly, and in no time the gun was assembled, while Qin Fang covertly took out a box of bullets from a corner. They were all hastily made by himself, and could truly be considered crudely manufactured.

Despite that, since the gun had been made after expending so much effort and time, it couldn't be completely useless.

Qin Fang took the gun and walked out of the cabin, ran to the warehouse, and started up a saw machine that could barely be operated, but its roaring noise was so loud it could be heard hundreds of meters away.

It wasn't that Qin Fang had a penchant for such noise but rather he wanted to test the gun without alerting the people from the streets or the police, which would be quite unfavorable.

With such roaring noise, it wouldn't matter if he fired the gun; he probably wouldn't be able to distinguish it if he were firing cannons.

The factory was now Qin Fang's, and he had even had the gates reinstalled. He even had someone install a very hidden camera, so he could sit in the cabin and watch the outside, preventing anyone from sneaking in unnoticed.

Several gun targets hung on the warehouse wall, and Qin Fang, standing fifty meters away, raised the gun in his hand, aimed at a target, and pulled the trigger.

Bang~~

The sound of the gunshot was obviously inaudible, completely drowned out by the roar, but Qin Fang's hands could feel the recoil of the gun very clearly.

Bang bang bang~~

Continuously pulling the trigger, he fired three or four shots before stopping.

He was just testing the gun and verifying that it met his standards was enough—not to mention he had a limited supply of bullets and didn't dare to waste them recklessly.

He went over to check the targets; all four shots hit, and the placement was fairly close to the bullseye, which was obviously far better than the hit rate he had during his time in the military camp.

Of course, that was to be expected. Qin Fang had just leveled up to Level 2; Full Attributes +10, of which one was the hit attribute—doubled compared to before. Not only was his basketball shooting accuracy higher, but his shooting hit rate was also higher.

Satisfied with the gun testing, Qin Fang simply adjusted the sight again and, confirming there were no issues, tossed the gun along with several dozen bullets into the Props Box.

Storing such an item in the Props Box meant that he could use it whenever necessary, whereas leaving it outside could easily lead to discovery, and might even get him arrested by the police for illegal possession of firearms.

Of course, Qin Fang also wouldn't forget to attach a Scouting Skill to the gun. Always being aware of the situation was a must for Qin Fang, and if anything was amiss, he had to deal with it immediately.

"Homemade pistol with extremely poor craftsmanship, coupled with bullets, attack +50, a lethal weapon for killing."

Despite the System's dismal evaluation of the gun, the attack +50 at the end spoke volumes about the formidable power of this poorly crafted handgun.

Qin Fang was now at Level 2, with Life Points at 20. With each level-up adding 5 Life Points, it was calculated that Qin Fang would need to be above Level 8 to withstand a bullet fired from this gun.

From starting at Level 0 to reaching Level 1 required 100 experience points. Calculating that each level-up's experience requirement was four times that of the previous level, reaching Level 8 would amount to an astronomical figure, requiring more than 6.5 million experience points to achieve.

Considering Qin Fang's current methods of gaining experience, which included beating up hooligans, capturing fugitives, or occasionally completing some tasks, most experiences were worth only a few dozen points and were quite rare. So, aiming for Level 8 might be out of reach for his entire life.

If it ever came to that time, even without the use of a gun, he'd probably have died of old age.

Naturally, Qin Fang did have methods to increase his Life Points. He had learned the Strong Body Technique, which at the Beginner Level allowed him to increase his maximum Life Points by 1 for every 10% increase in Proficiency.

This meant that by advancing from Beginner to Intermediate Level, he could increase his Life Points by 10, equivalent to leveling up twice, much quicker than just relying on leveling up for Life Point gains, effectively saving him the need for several million experience points for leveling up.

"Right, the Strong Body Technique..."

Speaking of the Strong Body Technique, Qin Fang just remembered that he hadn't paid attention to it for a long time. Since the skill was passive and didn't need to be actively used, it was easy to forget about it.

"Eh, what's going on here?"

But upon closer inspection, Qin Fang was shocked to find that the Proficiency still showed a clear 0%. It hadn't increased at all.

"Combo Points? What's that?"

However, Qin Fang quickly noticed something different. Below the Strong Body Technique skill, there was a term and a number called Combo Points, and it also indicated the amount: 131, and right after this number, there was an option to "exchange" similar to choices in online games.

"Combo Points, a special source for Body Strengthening Technique Proficiency, accumulate a certain value by bearing physical blows, and Combo Points can be used to exchange for corresponding Body Strengthening Technique Proficiency."

Seeing such an explanation, Qin Fang understood how to increase the Proficiency of the Strong Body Technique.

Strong Body Technique, which was mentioned during the skill explanation, suggested enhancing one's physique. Someone like Qin Fang who did nothing was unlikely to improve his physical strength, and the only ways to become stronger and increase one's defense were either through personal training or with the help of others.

Physical training was relatively straightforward to understand, but Qin Fang hadn't expected that the Strong Body Technique would be determined by the extent to which the body could withstand blows. In fact, even the physical contact from playing basketball could also generate Combo Points.

"Exchange!"

Qin Fang hesitated for a moment, but to confirm the exchange ratio between Combo Points and Proficiency, he chose to make an exchange.

Almost at Qin Fang's command, he saw the 131 Combo Points instantly drop from three digits to two, and at the same time, the Proficiency of the Strong Body Technique went from the original 0% to now 0.1%.

"It takes a hundred Combo Points to exchange for 0.1% Proficiency... Damn it!"

Seeing this exchange ratio, Qin Fang truly felt the urge to kill someone. According to this rate, he needed a whopping ten thousand Combo Points to increase by 1 Life Point.

If he considered what Qin Fang had gone through since leveling up to Level 2, it seemed he had been beaten up, played basketball and got hit several times, and even sparred with Fang Dacheng every morning, hitting Fang Dacheng quite a few times.

But even with all that, he had only accumulated 131 Combo Points to date, "This leveling up is way too slow..."

"Looks like I shouldn't dodge too much when fighting the boss in the future; getting beaten up might actually be better..." Qin Fang plotted in his mind.

As for playing basketball, occasional collisions were inevitable, but with Qin Fang's small stature, the strong men and fatties didn't dare to mess around too much; the opportunities weren't that frequent, and everyone was worried about causing serious injuries, especially now that Qin Fang's nickname "Assassin" had become quite well-known.

After all, he had taken out the testicles of a brute from the sports academy within ten seconds, and rumor had it that the guy was still in the hospital up till today. He had also broken Li Feng's nasal bone, and he too was still hospitalized, though the authenticity of this still needed verification, at least the school hadn't bothered Qin Fang about it, and he didn't know if Ning Weiqiang had suppressed the matter.

And fighting in school was not a good thing. One or two times could be suppressed, but if it happened often, people would inevitably start talking.

"Younger Brother Qin, long time no see, do you remember me, Brother Jiangnan?"

Chen Jiangnan's call was a minor surprise for Qin Fang; he had met Tang Cheng and Ning Weiqiang since the auction, but hadn't seen Chen Jiangnan.

This was quite normal. Tang Cheng was a soldier, and Qin Fang's military training happened to be in the barracks where he fortuitously met him; Ning Weiqiang didn't need saying, they were from the same school, and although they didn't cross paths often, there were occasional opportunities.

As for Chen Jiangnan, a businessman and CEO of a company, naturally he had to deal in business, sometimes even traveling out of town, so naturally he couldn't be as leisurely as Qin Fang.

"Brother Jiangnan is really too polite, how could I possibly forget you? What's up, you're looking for me?"

Qin Fang responded with a laugh, but quickly got to the point.

If his connection with Tang Cheng and Ning Weiqiang was because Qin Fang was now the boyfriend of Tang Cheng's sister and also the sworn brother of Ning Weiqiang's sister, then Qin Fang and Chen Jiangnan really had no ties. Thus, for him to actively seek Qin Fang out, it couldn't just be for a simple catch-up.

"We'll talk about that later. Are you free this afternoon? I heard you made a fortune gambling on stones the other day. It's a pity I don't have the capital to join in such big plays, but I can try my hand at some small antiques. You're an expert in this field, so come have a look with me and advise me. If you're feeling itchy, picking up a bargain can earn you a fair sum. Of course, we can casually discuss some business..."

Chen Jiangnan didn't state his purpose directly but brought up Qin Fang's gambling on stones instead.

Qin Fang didn't find this strange at all. Although Chen Jiangnan knew Tang Cheng and Ning Weiqiang before, he couldn't really connect with that circle, but through Qin Fang as a link, he was now in touch with these two wealthy young men. Ning Yumo heard about Qin Fang's fortune from gambling on stones, came over for a meal, and even helped catch Brother Niu's group who were plotting against Qin Fang. Naturally, Ning Weiqiang would know as well...

Once he knew, casually informing Tang Cheng and Chen Jiangnan wouldn't be surprising at all. (To be continued, if you want to find out what happens next, please visit www.qidian.com. More chapters are available there, support the author, support genuine reading!)
