Jason Carter stood cheerfully at the entrance of the shack, watching the commotion as if nothing was happening. However, at that moment, the girl in the baseball cap from earlier actually turned to glance at Jason Carter, and Jason Carter instantly felt as if he had been seen through.

He didn’t even see the expression under her cap, yet he felt an inexplicable sense of unease.

Jason Carter instinctively activated his skill learning chart, and a voice echoed in the palace: “A random target skill will be learned.”

“Random learning?”

“A firearm skill has been randomly selected from the target. Would you like to learn it?”

“Learn!” Jason Carter saw that the learning chart was already gone at this point, so if he didn’t learn, it would be wasted.

“Learning successful. You have mastered Advanced Firearms Proficiency.”

“Wait, didn’t I get a basic-level chart? How did I learn advanced firearms proficiency? Shouldn’t it have been beginner level?” Jason Carter wondered in his mind.

“There are only two types of skill learning charts. The first, basic level, allows you to directly learn any skill below advanced. The second, master level, allows you to learn another’s master-level skills, and may even allow you to acquire the target’s supernatural abilities,” the voice in the palace replied.

Jason Carter was stunned. You can even learn other people’s supernatural abilities?! At this moment, he remembered the girl and suddenly asked, “Can you tell me the level of that girl’s firearms proficiency?”

“For targets whose skills have already been learned, I can inform you.”

“What level is her firearms proficiency? Master?”

“Perfect.”

……

A basic-level learning chart can randomly learn any skill below advanced from the target. The master-level chart, on the basis of already having advanced skills, allows you to learn the other’s master-level skills, and may even let you acquire their supernatural abilities.

The level is entirely determined by that palace. Although the palace said there’s only a certain chance of success, just the thought that he could learn someone else’s supernatural ability made Jason Carter a little excited.

Previously, Jason Carter and Brian Cooper had discussed something: are supernatural abilities also divided into levels? Some people are naturally stronger, some are naturally weaker.

For someone like Jason Carter, who needs to survive in the wild, he naturally felt that combat-oriented supernatural abilities were more powerful. But Brian Cooper, who had a luck attribute and couldn’t fight, insisted that supernatural abilities were just different in use, not in strength.

But now, an ability that can copy others’ abilities—how strong or weak is that supposed to be?!

However, what Jason Carter was thinking about more now was that girl in the baseball cap.

When he received the advanced firearms skill, a flood of firearms knowledge surged into Jason Carter’s mind, as if it had been directly fused into his instincts—a sudden enlightenment.

What he mastered wasn’t just knowledge of various firearms’ models, disassembly, maintenance, and use, but also an almost instinctive ability to aim with all kinds of guns.

Jason Carter even knew the recoil of every type of gun. If he were handed a gun now, as long as it was covered by his advanced firearms skill, he could handle it like a veteran with ten years of experience—no difference at all.

As for accuracy, a score above 95 rings within 100 meters seemed to be the standard for advanced firearms skills.

All this surprised Jason Carter, but not to the point of ecstasy—after all, he didn’t have a gun in his hand right now. What shocked him even more was the palace’s evaluation of the girl’s firearms skill: perfect.

Jason Carter couldn’t even imagine how powerful master level would be, let alone perfect.

Someone like that, in a band?

It seemed those mercenaries and band staff had no idea there was such a terrifying presence in their team. Jason Carter had noticed before that everyone just treated her as an ordinary staff member.

That girl probably didn’t expect that Jason Carter had already obtained her secret through some mysterious means.

Figuring out a way not to get involved with this group really was a wise decision. Jason Carter felt a thrill at having learned someone else’s secret.

“Bro, why are you staring at her back?” Brian Cooper poked his head out of the shack and asked.

Jason Carter immediately dropped his happy mood and turned to look at Brian Cooper. Just as he was about to assert his authority as the older brother, the curtain of the neighboring shack was lifted, and a female voice asked, “Whose back? Where?”

At that moment, both Brian Cooper and Jason Carter were stunned—the person coming out of the neighboring shack was actually Emily!

Brian Cooper asked curiously, “Emily sis, how come you’re in the shack next door?”

Emily smoothed her hair and smiled, “I’m moving here from now on, to be your neighbor.”

“What about the family of three who used to live here?” Brian Cooper pressed, “Where did they go?”

“I swapped my place with theirs,” Emily explained.

Brian Cooper pulled Jason Carter aside and whispered, “Bro, Emily sis really went all out—she used to live in a stone-brick house!”

Jason Carter didn’t say anything, just ducked his head and went into the shack. Brian Cooper smiled at Emily and then followed him inside.

“Bro, you’re still a virgin, right?” Brian Cooper asked.

Jason Carter glared at Brian Cooper. “Liuyuan, you’re not a kid anymore. I think it’s time we had a talk about sex education.”
