Chapter 17: Useless (White)
Despite waking up so early, the Outer God Association\'s appointment was scheduled for as early as six in the morning.
After awakening his avatar, Linsley\'s mental state had improved significantly. He could now go a day or two without sleep if needed.
The avatar, being a manifestation of the soul, reflected the essence of its master. In Linsley\'s case, the Outer God\'s slave mark and the accumulated mental pollution served as catalysts, further enhancing the power of his avatar.
There was also a theory that the soul carried the essence of one\'s existence, with memories considered as part of that essence. This suggested that an avatar master\'s mental state was closely linked to their avatar\'s power.
This theory proposed that enduring hardships and near-death experiences could strengthen one\'s soul by refining the mental state, ultimately making the avatar more powerful.
Determined to make the most of his time, Linsley decided to wake up early and use his daily simulation opportunity. The simulation reset every midnight, and it didn\'t stack. Even if he used it at eleven the night before, it would still reset at midnight.
Although the god simulator\'s simulation text seemed long, only a nanosecond passed in the real world. The simulator slowed down Linsley\'s perception of time, allowing him to digest the simulation\'s events without losing much time in reality.
After finishing his shower and breakfast, Linsley activated the god simulator. However, the talents he was presented with made him question his luck.
-Ding!
[Rolling three random talents…]
-Ding!
[Gay (White): You are gay.]
[Useless (White): You are completely useless. Even if you have power, don\'t expect to achieve anything.]
[BL Protagonist (Blue): You might not be gay, but many men would die to sleep with you.]
"OH MY GOD!!!"
"The fuck is this shit?!"
Linsley cursed out loud, seeing the two white-grade talents and one blue-grade talent that seemed designed to torment him.
Normally, he\'d be pleased to get a blue-grade talent, but this one felt more like a death sentence—an upgraded version of the white-grade Gay talent.
"I don\'t swing that way, and I never will. Usually, I\'d just suck it up and go with the BL Protagonist talent if it were a normal text simulation. But since I have to experience everything the simulated body goes through, I\'d rather not disgust myself."
"I\'m willing to sacrifice a lot for power, but not this. I might as well choose to be useless, because this simulation round is a lost cause."
Without hesitation, Linsley decided to forfeit this round of simulation. After all, he could try again tomorrow, and he had no intention of enduring a simulation that repulsed him.
-Ding!
[The host has chosen the following talent: Useless (White)]
[The host has inherited the following talent: Martial Arts Master (Blue)]
-Ding!
[Starting the simulation in {Avatar World}…]
-Ding!
[You opened your eyes and discovered that you are currently inside a modern room.]
[Feeling the power in your body, you summoned your Invisible Providence avatar and discovered that your inherited power could be brought into the god simulation, making your god simulation a lot more convenient as you become stronger.]
[Furthermore, you also discovered that you have inherited your Martial Arts Master (Blue) talent.]
[You were confident that even with the Useless (White) talent nerfing you, it shouldn\'t be that bad, right?]
[Confident in your power, you decided to follow a similar path as before, but with some key changes.]
[This time, instead of aiming to become the deputy gang leader of Sky High, you set your sights on becoming the gang leader outright.]
[With the identity distortion ability from your Invisible Providence avatar, you planned to use it to your advantage. By altering your identity from a normal civilian to that of the gang leader of Sky High, you thought it would save you a lot of time and effort.]
[However, as you prepared to implement your plan, you felt an invisible force preventing you from doing so. Moreover, the power of your Invisible Providence seemed significantly weakened, far less effective than before.]
[Upon further investigation, you realized that while your identity distortion ability still existed, it was no longer as potent. To use it to become the gang leader of Sky High, you first had to defeat the current leader.]
[This condition rendered your identity distortion ability almost useless, effectively negating its advantages.]
[Frustration boiled within you as you cursed, "Damn it! I won\'t accept this! I refuse to believe I can\'t defeat the leader of Sky High, even if my power has become useless!"]
