<h4>Chapter 25 - Choosing ss</h4>
Tang Shaoyang was confronted with a big dilemma as he did not know what to choose or what ss that fit with him. He was presented with many choices, but the choice did not give any details about the ss.
The screen in front of him only showed the ss''s name. The ss was divided into two sections, Basic ss and Unique ss. There were only six Basic ss, Warrior, Tank, Archer, Thief, Mage, and Healer.
Amongst the six Basic ss, he only understood three of them. Warrior, Archer, and Healer.
"Tank? Is that a military tank? An armored vehicle? This ss is nonsense!"
"Thief? Oh my… This is the worst! Why would someone choose to be a thief?"
"Mage? What is this? Based on the name, Mage seems to be a decent ss, right?"
As someone who never yed games, as someone who spent his time on the street and fighting. Tang Shaoyang was clueless with all these sses. The Basic ss already caused him enough headaches, but the Unique ss was more confusing.
He even spotted a ss Demon King, Hero, Dragon yer, Dragon Knight, and one that attracted him the most, me Emperor. The words emperor was the one that actually attracted him.
However, even so, to get the ss, he had to pay a huge sum of GC. Origin had exined that GC was the game currency that could be used to buy something from a virtual shop or can be used for ss Advancement.
However, it was impossible to choose that cringe ss. He had to gamble it, using his GC to get that close with a probability less than a percent to get one of those sses. Furthermore, he did not have enough GC to gamble.
100,000,000 GC was needed for that. However, there were also a few unique sses that could be earned with GC. There were ten sses in total.
---------------------
Unique ss:
1. Summoner [Advance ss] (1,000,000 GC)
2. Assassin [Advance ss] (1,000,000 GC)
3. Swordsman [Advance ss] (1,000,000 GC)
4. Ranger [Advance ss] (1,000,000 GC)
5. Knight [Advance ss] (1,000,000 GC)
6. Berserker [Advance ss] (1,000,000 GC)
7. Cleric [Advance ss] (1,000,000 GC)
8. me Mage [Advance ss] (1,000,000 GC)
9. cksmith [Advance ss] (1,000,000 GC)
10. Spirit Contractor [???] (10,000,000 GC)
---------------------
Those ten sses were what he could choose aside from the Basic ss. However, there were only two sses that attracted him, Berserker and Swordsman. But he never used a sword and he was worried about that.
Tang Shaoyang was more inclined to Berserker. It reminded him about his title, but being picky, he did not want to bring his past with him. He was a new Tang Shaoyang who would establish his empire.
Berserker only reminded him about his past who was just someone else''s subordinate. He was being picky about his ss. Just as he was confused with these sses, the helper came.
"Master, have you decided yet?" Origin''s respectful voice rang in his mind.
Tang Shaoyang''s eyes lit up as he immediately asked Origin, "Can you tell me about the detail of the ss?"
He wanted to know about the ss and choose the most suitable for his fighting style. But Tang Shaoyang had to be disappointed with Origin''s answer.
"I am sorry, Master! I can''t help you with that. Just like the system that does not provide any information, I am as a part of the system is prohibited to leak the information," Origin replied with a dejected voice.
It was as if the AI had emotion as it showed it through its voice. Tang Shaoyang also could discern it as well. He could only let out a sigh as he faced the dilemma.
"However, if you trust me, I can help you to choose your ss! If you trust me, allow me to give you my rmendation,"
Indeed, Origin could not leak the details of each ss, but it could help its Master with the rmendation. As Origin knew its Master''s attribute, it could choose the most suitable for Tang Shaoyang.
Origin could advise its Master with the most suitable ss, but with a condition that its Master trusted it.
"Then, what is the most suitable ss for me?" Tang Shaoyang asked as he wanted to know Origin''s opinion.
"Spirit Contractor! That is the most suitable ss for you! It''s worth its price, Master!" Origin replied without any hesitation.
Tang Shaoyang looked back at the screen, the most expensive one amongst the ten Unique sses. Spirit Contractor, he never thought of choosing this ss, not only because of its sky-high price, but the name of the ss was fishy to him.
The only thing he knew about spirit was a ghost. There was an elderly couple who often shared their experiences about meeting ghosts and vengeful spirit with him. So when he saw the word spirit, he connected with ghosts.
Tang Shaoyang hesitated as he was unsure, but he could not ignore Origin''s judgment.
"Does the Spirit Contractor is about making a contract with spirit and letting the spirit fight for me?" Tang Shaoyang tried to define Spirit Contractor.
"I can''t tell you, Master~" Origin responded helplessly. With the restriction, it could not tell Tang Shaoyang anything about Spirit Contractor, "I can exin it if only you choose Spirit Contractor as your ss!"
Tang Shaoyang opened his status screen and checked the upper right corner. He had 10,506,107 GC in total. Origin told him that clearing the mini-game gave him a lot of rewards, GC Coin included.
As someone who became the first who cleared the first mini-game, it gave him a lot of GC bonus.
"If I use ten million GC for my ss, then how am I going to upgrade my territory? You told me I need a lot of GC to upgrade my territory, opening more useful features for my territory!" Tang Shaoyang was hesitating because of its cost, it was not that he did not believe in Origin.
"Master, Don''t you want to build an empire, right? To build an empire, you need a lot of people in it. You can use your people to gather GC Coin. You should focus more on your strength for now!" Origin advised.
"Extorting my people? How can I do that to my people!" Tang Shaoyang shook his head. He might be ruthless to his enemy, but not his people.
"No, we are not extorting them. Tax, it''s a tax, Master. They are protected by the empire, so it''s normal for them to pay taxes. Moreover, we can provide talent and ss within our smart territory, paying tax is natural for them. However, before we implement that, you have to be strong, Master!"
"If you are strong, then people are willing to pay tax in exchange for protection and the facilities of our empire. Currently, Spirit Contractor is the most suitable ss for you, exchanging ten million for a strong ss is worth it!"
Tang Shaoyang was convinced with Origin''s words. He needed more power to gather people so these people were willing to join his empire.
"Good, I will choose Spirit Contractor!" He pressed Spirit Contractor on the screen and his GC got deducted instantly.
Right after that, the screen vanished. The room darkened a few seconds before the light returned. The screen list also appeared again.
Tang Shaoyang checked the screen once again and found there were only nine sses in Unique ss. Spirit Contractor vanished from the list, then he checked his status screen.

--------------------------------------
ss was added to the status screen, but there was no change in attributes. A frown appeared on Tang Shaoyang''s forehead. Origin told him that ss could give him bonus attributes.
However, he got three additional skills. He wanted to ask Origin about his skills, but without him waiting for him to ask, Origin started the exnation about the skills. Not only skill, Origin even told him what Spirit Contractor was.
As Spirit Contractor was his ss now, Origin was no longer restricted. His duty after all helping its Master.
After the exnation, Tang Shaoyang came out of the Advancement Room. Outside, Lu An was waiting for him. The boy wanted to ask what ss he got, but Tang Shaoyang had a task for Lu An.
"Follow me!"
Lu An obediently followed his Boss.
Two hourster, at the center of Changshou za
Tang Shaoyang and Lu An had been gathering the zombie''s dead bodies, including the Crawler and Crusher they killed yesterday.
They piled the dead bodies and Tang Shaoyang stood before it. The dead bodies were used to activate his skill [Sacrificial Offering]. He directed his right onto the pile of the dead bodies and activated [Sacrificial Offering].
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
A strong wind engulfed the dead bodies. A few secondster, the dead bodies released green gas. As the wind and green gas that revolved around the dead bodies, his vision was blocked.
The wind and the ck gassted for five minutes. It dispersed and the dead bodies also vanished. However, at the ce where the dead bodies piled up, there was a three meters figure standing there.
