Chapter 23: Upgrades and Survival Points (Requesting Recommendations! Requesting Favorites!)
Regarding finding the system, Chen Xin was extremely excited.
It felt like a mischievous child suddenly getting a new toy, unwilling to stop playing until thoroughly satisfied.
Moreover, now hiding in the shelter, all electronic devices had been wrapped in aluminum foil and placed in a metal box to shield from the upcoming EMP shockwave. Aside from tinkering with his newly acquired system, there was indeed nothing else for him to do.
However, this tinkering allowed Chen Xin to understand how the system he found worked and what capabilities it had.
The system itself was rather simple. Instead of a complete system, it was more like an auxiliary program.
The program had no interface; when Chen Xin switched on the system, it only displayed his survival points balance in the corner of his retina and the upgrade information for items Chen Xin could access nearby.
For example, when Chen Xin focused his gaze on a ballpoint pen on the table, he could see two different upgrade options appear for it.
One was to add a high-brightness flashlight function, upgrading the pen to a pen-shaped flashlight commonly used by doctors in hospitals; the other was to add a window-breaking function, turning it into a survival tool.
