Chapter 255 - The Change in the System

The system beeped.

Jiang Hao listened to the system's commentary and was ecstatic.

“It's like whatever I say, I get!”

“Is my luck really this good today? Or is this how the system is meant to be used?”

In that moment, Jiang Hao began to suspect that his past use of the system was too amateurish!

He had only been able to passively break things down, leaving what he could gain up to chance.

Today, he realized that the system preferred proactivity over passivity!

With this revelation, a wave of happiness washed over him.

Without hesitation, he commanded:

“Extract and merge!”

As Jiang Hao's words dissipated, a flood of memories surged into his mind.

Suddenly, his understanding of various poisons and the methods to concoct them was second nature!

Moreover, medicine and poison were two sides of the same coin!

He already had a level four proficiency in medicine, and now, by integrating the Poison Master skill, his mastery over poisons soared to new heights.

Then, the system chimed in again.

“Congratulations, host, on advancing your Poison Master skill to Level 3 (50/100)!”

Simultaneously, his System Panel updated—the medical skill column had changed.

But then his eyes landed on his brothers at his feet, and in that moment, he made up his mind.

?What good was reputation if you lost your life?

Besides, once they made it back, it would be like a dragon returning to the ocean.

“Fine, I agree!”

Gu Quanzhong consented, and a smile began to form on Jiang Hao's face.

But just then, a dissenting voice came from behind him.

“Big brother, I don't...”

Before Third Brother could finish his sentence, a streak of black light flashed from Jiang Hao's hand.

“Whoosh!”

A brief sound of slicing air was followed by a scream of agony.

“Ah!”

“My hand!”

Gu Quanzhong's face turned pale as he instinctively looked back.

He saw Third Brother holding up his hand, now drenched in blood, as he cried out in terror.

A sharp blade had completely pierced his palm. Looking past Third Brother, Gu Quanzhong saw a black throwing knife embedded in a tree!

And there, at Third Brother's feet, lay a handgun.

It was the one Gu Quanzhong had missed when collecting Third Brother's firearms.

Indeed, he had taken two handguns from Third Brother earlier.

As for why there was still one handgun with Third Brother, it was because he always carried three pistols on him.
