Simulation Game: Crisis Management

Chapter 607 - 275: Major Case_2

Jin Zhijiu stopped tapping his fingers, his gaze shifted, focusing on the center of the computer screen, at the end of those encrypted files.

"Mysterious Team: 7472 Activity Information Summary"!

Gu Ji kept a close watch on the "Jin Zhijiu" character directly connected on the Ghost Server but ultimately chose to temporarily give up.

Jin Zhijiu now held a high position and wielded significant power.

He’s a major chess piece, and if used well, it could achieve unexpected effects. It’s necessary to find a suitable opportunity to bring him in.

After checking the MERS checkpoint information and personnel identities,

Gu Ji shifted his attention back to attribute enhancement.

Although he missed many bonus points in this level’s scoring, the crisis points he earned were still substantial, and he hadn’t yet used the [Military Satellite Usage Rights] and [Suicide Missile Drone Support] he exchanged for.

"If only I could convert some crisis points into glory points..."

Ever since he had seen the items in the privilege vault, Gu Ji couldn’t help but think about it constantly.

He cleared his mind of distractions.

Although he gained so many crisis points, the cost of opening the yellow treasure chest had increased a lot this time around, and with more and more roles in the Ghost Server, the cost of each information exchange was not insignificant.

Therefore, Gu Ji must spend "money" carefully on essential things.

First, the level must be increased.

This crisis point is enough to support him in leveling up twice and opening an additional imprint slot.

[Spend 27 crisis points to level up to 13?]

[Yes!]

A flash of blue light, and the level on the attribute board instantly changed. Besides unlocking a new slot, he also had 6 attribute allocation points in his hand.

Gu Ji first targeted a bit of probing at his main direction: [Central Nervous System].

Everything was as he expected.

When his [Central Nervous System] was enhanced over 20 with attribute points, further enhancement reduced each gain from "0.5" to "0.25." Indeed, the benefits were halved again.

"Apparently the game doesn’t want players to lean heavily in one direction, but follow a hexagonal warrior route!"

Gu Ji rubbed his chin and decided to add one to all attributes except immune, prioritizing the Central Nervous System for two enhancements.

Character: Gu Ji

Level: 13

Central Nervous System: 19.6+0.75

Skeletal Muscle Movement: 18.7+0.5

Cardiovascular Circulation: 17.4+0.5

Sensory Organs: 15.6+0.5

Digestive System: 15.9+0.5

Immunity: 14.7

Current Remaining Enhancement Points: 0

Imprint Slots: Reflex Enhancement (Medium), Endurance Enhancement (Medium), Hearing Enhancement (Small), Risk Judgment Enhancement (Small), Speed Enhancement (Medium), Emergency Evacuation Mastery (Medium), Military Infiltration Mastery (Medium), Empty

Seeing his current attributes, Gu Ji already had expectations for the yellow treasure box.

He switched the page to the [Research] system.

After leveling up twice, he didn’t expect that this time six skills would refresh.

[Natural Disaster]: Military Geography, Meteorological Mapping (Unlearned)

[Accident]: Sudden Accident Investigation and Analysis (Unlearned)

[Public Health]: Reconnaissance and Sampling (Unlearned), Battlefield Decontamination (Unlearned)

[Tactics]: NDSTC Naval Diving and Rescue Training Center: Fleet Training and Advanced Training (Unlearned), Advanced Close-Combat/Breakthrough (Unlearned)

The plethora of skills left Gu Ji somewhat overwhelmed.

With his increasing level, the refreshed skills were almost all important.

Military mapping needs no further mention, it is inherently the most crucial intelligence portion, meanwhile, it chiefly enhanced Gu Ji’s observation skills regarding terrain and meteorology.

The skills in the accident category further strengthened his rapid analysis capability for unexpected incidents.

The two skills in public health are chemical defense units’ training subjects.

Mainly dealing with serious public health events under biochemical warfare, biochemical attacks, and factory leaks.

And then there was Gu Ji’s forte: the tactical category.

These two skills were rather intriguing.

NDSTC being a private training command institution, is the center for all US Navy diving training, located in Panama City, Florida, conducting diving training in Mexico’s shallow waters, encapsulating various maritime units and is a mandatory preliminary for most US Navy to enter the Seal Team.

Fleet Training and Advanced Training is already the highest level, is the top-tier, in the training system.

Primarily focusing on fast boat sea battles and command.

It essentially strengthens Gu Ji’s former close sea combat skills, steering him thoroughly toward amphibious combat direction.

But this time the real highlight wasn’t this.

Ironically, it was the seemingly unremarkable Advanced Close-Combat and Breakthrough, especially the "Breakthrough" part.

As a special police officer, Gu Ji had learned various skills like CQC, CQB, tactical infiltration.

What was the real purpose of all these?

It was for Breakthrough!

To raid terrorists, rescue hostages, break through criminal blockades, and hit crime dens.

Among which, close combat breakthrough is the toughest item.

This is akin to close ball handling in football or basketball, where techniques like dodging are employed to avoid physical collisions from the opposing team, culminating in scoring or shooting.

Whereas tactical close-combat breakthrough employs maneuvering, cover, and cross-cover to accomplish rapid penetration through criminal gunfire.

That’s precisely what Gu Ji needs most at the moment.

Thus, while learning one level for other skills, he elevated Advanced Close-Combat Breakthrough to level two, spending a total of 8 crisis points.

A deluge of information fragments surged into Gu Ji’s memory.

His entire body’s muscles trembled slightly, as though the brain center was transforming this knowledge into his instincts, inscribing them into muscles, nerves, forming muscle memory.

Gu Ji’s eyes widened.

In terms of tactics, his current amphibious combat ability has already surpassed ordinary Marine Corps, nearly equating to Seal Team, whereas his land combat breakthrough ability should fully equate with T2 level special forces, or stronger still.

Gu Ji’s real advantage.

Lies in his enormous skills knowledge base and in the interlinked synergy formed among the research system’s four major domains, often granting him broader thinking and depth than a mere tactical commander during sudden critical moments.

Finishing the game.

Gu Ji took a shower, thoroughly washing away the stench of two days’ sweat in bed, and the exhaustion within the game levels, and then casually made dinner.

Just as he finished preparing the ingredients, he heard a noise at the door.

It was his mother.

"Mom, why are you back from work so early?" Gu Ji poked his head out from the kitchen, greeted her.

"Why, can’t I come back early anymore?" Dong Ying gave her son a glare.

Back-to-back night and day shifts for two days straight left even a seasoned detective like his mother somewhat exhausted, with noticeable dark circles under her eyes and fatigue written all over her face, she didn’t even have time to change out of her police uniform.

"Sure, of course, you can."

Gu Ji chuckled, "Mom, you go rest. I’m cooking dinner, I’ll call you when it’s ready."

Dong Ying saw the apron on her son and the knife in his hand.

Her lips moved slightly, intending to praise him, but her habitual role as a "strict mother" stopped her from speaking, she headed straight to the bedroom.

p.m.

Gu Ji carried the last pot of pork rib and yam soup to the dining table, quickly pinched his earlobes with his fingers, blowing air out of his mouth.

"You know it’s hot but still don’t use gloves, so careless."

Dong Ying, now in home attire, walked over, glared at him, sat down, then picked up some chopsticks, "Let’s eat. Did you buy the ticket back to Ningzhou for tomorrow?"

"Already ordered it. Morning flight, report back to the team at noon."

Gu Ji talked casually with his mother, "By the way, mom, what big case did your squad take on, working overtime for two days straight?"

"Don’t ask what you shouldn’t, you just seem to know too much!"

Dong Ying scolded him, seeing Gu Ji just "oh" and then bury his head into eating, seemingly thinking of something, she couldn’t help but soften, "By the way, after returning to Ningzhou, be cautious during training and missions, understood?"

"Yeah, I know mom, I’m no rookie."

Gu Ji finished his meal, swiftly washed the dishes, then lay down on the sofa browsing on his phone.

A hot topic in the news instantly caught his attention:

Thai media reported on the "Xia Kingdom tourist killed in Thailand" case, investigation ongoing!!
