Chapter 97 - Special Ability: Inequivalent Exchange
After Su Yang went through the system notification, a young man in traditional Chinese attire appeared above the swimming pool. The 15 to 16-year-old youth had a pair of puffy eyes as if he did not have enough sleep.
At the same time, the system window popped up from the young man’s body.
[Swimming Pool +1: High Life Evolution has occurred. Acquired Intermediate Intellect. Acquired Humanoid Body. Acquired special ability: Inequivalent Exchange.]
[Remark: Brave young man, do you desire this kind of power or that kind of power?]
Su Yang did not know how to react when he saw the description.
‘Did the swimming pool acquire a humanoid body? Does it mean that the point gave birth to a powerful monster? Judging from the size of it, it’s like a monster from xianxia novels reaching transformation stage1, right? Like it transformed into its humanoid form from a swimming pool!’
Su Yang had the feeling that if this continued, he could add a point to a ship, a plane, or even a building.
With that in mind, Su Yang put aside the thought of testing the Pool Deity and washed up before he stormed out of his basement. He got on the subway and made his way to Tang Jing’s neighborhood.
This time around, when he reached the entrance, the guard no longer called Tang Jing for confirmation. He simply let Su Yang in. After all, Su Yang had visited Tang Jing’s house many times and the guard recognized him.
When he got to Tang Jing’s unit, he pressed the bell, and Tang Jing welcomed him in casual clothes and an apron. She smiled brightly when she saw him. “You’re here!”
Su Yang nodded with a smile. “Yeah, I’m here.”
Tang Jing opened the door for Su Yang, and while she removed the apron, she said, “Come have some breakfast. Xiaomi is still asleep.”
Su Yang looked at his watch. “It’s already 10 a.m. Isn’t she awake yet?”
Tang Jing nodded. Her eyes were filled with a loving twinkle as she said, “She insisted on playing a game last night, I let her have some fun. But she got addicted and stayed awake until 4 a.m.”
Even though Su Yang was close to Tang Xiaomi, he spoke his mind in front of her mother, “Sister Tang, you shouldn’t pamper her like that. She’s still small, so you shouldn’t let her get addicted to games.”
Tang Jing chuckled and said softly, “It’s not a smart phone game. It’s Sudoku. She’s trying to solve 6 x 6 and 9 x 9.”
Su Yang did not know how to respond. ‘Sudoku? Is that what geniuses play nowadays? What was I doing when I was her age?’
He tried to recall what he did when he was young but realized that he did not have any entertainment back in the village. All he played with was dirt and mud.
‘I really didn’t have a childhood…’
