Chapter 366 Level Skill!
It's been a long time since I explored the system.

In previous explorations, Li Yan quickly clarified the rule that "the generation of system concepts, the improvement of capabilities, and numerical breakthroughs all originate from one's own cognition."

It gave Li Yan a very clear path for improvement, which is to learn.

You can't just stick to one line and study it in depth, but you must become an all-round god of war.

The name of the "all-round point addition" system may not be to explain that it can be all-round, but to emphasize that it must be all-round.

Only by learning everything and doing everything can Li Yan form richer, broader and deeper knowledge, and thus be improved.

After studying a certain field to a certain extent, it is very difficult to have new insights. The basic knowledge is deeply rooted and advanced knowledge is difficult to understand. At this time, the system's presence will be weakened a lot.

But even Li Yan, who has been pursuing the all-round route and hoping that his skills would be entangled with each other for improvement, is now in a situation where it is difficult to improve.

Because most skills have reached a "certain level", the specific quantification is 60 points.

Although Li Yan had improved a few of his skills due to various unexpected stimulations and sufficient accumulation, it was obvious that completely unexpected stimulations like douzhi could not be used as a regular means, and the current accumulation and improvement speed could definitely not meet Li Yan's needs.

Li Yan has been troubled by this for a long time and has made plans to continue developing in all aspects.

If the Jiaolong mobile phone wants to amaze the world fast enough, Li Yan must be at least one level stronger than the current team.

The first-level skill, which had been silent all this time, was of course the focus of Li Yan's exploration.

Unfortunately, I have no clue.

I never expected that by helping Xiaopang, I could vaguely touch the switch of the first-level skill.

It's just like playing a hidden dungeon.

He must be focused enough to reinforce his new understanding until he is convinced of it.

So, what exactly is the cognition that triggers the first-level skill?
"I have been reborn, so what is impossible?"

"I am simply a bug in this world."

But as for the two things of rebirth and system, they are completely inconsistent with the logic of the real world.

The dead cannot be resurrected, and there is no way to foresee the future or travel through the past.

But Li Yan was reborn.

Not to mention the system.

Is it to explore the truth about rebirth and the system?
It was as if all five senses had disappeared. Li Yan could vaguely feel the switch of the first-level skill just now, but now everything disappeared.

This shows that this idea is totally wrong and even counterproductive.

Yes, the key now is how to become a player, rather than figuring out the things of game developers.

That’s not something Li Yan needs to think about.

Suddenly, Li Yan realized: he now attaches too much importance to logic.

Logic helped him sort out a lot of things, but at the same time it became a shackle when he needed to let his thoughts fly.

"Has over-emphasizing logic become a shackle on my unbridled growth?"

That vague feeling appeared again, and Li Yan's breathing became rapid with excitement.

At this moment, he was sitting alone in the office, staring blankly ahead, his expression changing wildly, looking quite terrifying.

Fortunately, my thinking was fast enough and this offline state did not last long.

If I opened the door and Wang Zi saw it, I would probably have to resign on the spot.

"Could it be that the reason why I can't improve my skills is because I place too much emphasis on logic?"

He did have similar doubts. For example, regarding the improvement of physical values, the current progress of 60% already makes him an athlete. What would it mean to increase it to 90% or even 100%?

He has always believed that he has the ability to "compete with GOATs in various sports."

And we also have to consider his body shape. If he maintains his current relatively fit and well-proportioned condition, perhaps running, swimming and ball games will be okay for him, but heavy weightlifting will definitely not be a problem for him.

It's not like he has insect powers like in the comics, where he can lift several times his own weight.

Does he want to lift another 500 or 600 kilograms with his weight of over 100 kilograms?

Similarly, physical health and mental health are all the same thing. The best that can happen is that you are a super healthy person with a super stable mentality. What else can you do with that?

Although Li Yan had doubted whether "physical health" was just a concept when he should have been injured but was not, he should not use his imagination to solve the problem which can be solved by "physical strength".

We must abide by the Basic Law.

Including all subject areas, what does it matter even if the values ​​reach the highest level?

Logically speaking, this system is not a reward-based system. It does not give you the answer to a problem that humans cannot currently solve once you complete a certain stage of the task.

Therefore, it is impossible to give him the Riemann hypothesis, controlled nuclear fusion and even the mysteries of the universe just when the value reaches 100%.

The entire process of improvement depends on your own efforts. It would be funny if the answer was given to you directly at the end. What's the point of going through this whole journey?
The system doesn't play black humor.

He has always thought so.

But there is no logic between Li Yan’s rebirth and the system, so why should he abide by non-existent rules of the game?

Maybe the first-level skill is a superhuman skill like "Berserk"?
Something like super perception or brain overclocking that would allow him to experience the feeling of being a superhuman and gain new breakthrough knowledge from it?
The system did not respond, but Li Yan, who had already thought of this, continued to break through the "logical shackles" with just a thought.

"I'm a cheating player, I shouldn't study anything reasonable and logical."

Why can’t “good health” be a conceptual god?

In other words, if you have mastered all kinds of skills, you should be a fucking conceptual god. A reborn person with a system has fundamentally deviated from the "rationality" in human cognition, but has been entangled with rationality, which is really unnecessary.

If the “body” is fully stretched, maybe it will be invulnerable to swords and guns and immune to all poisons?

In short, what determines the upper limit of skills is Li Yan’s cognition. Why can’t this cognition be supplemented with imagination?

The entire system is stuck at 60% progress, most likely because Li Yan’s cognition is limited and he always feels that he can only improve according to the level he currently understands.

He thought he was working 100% towards the upper limit, but in reality he might have only reached 70% of the upper limit he wanted, so of course his progress could not be improved.

Ding!
The sound was particularly crisp and loud.

Li Yan's head was numb from the shock, and for a moment he felt as if his soul was leaving his body.

Then the darkness around him slowly dissipated, and a tiny bit of light gradually lit up until it filled Li Yan's entire intellect.

It was an unprecedented experience. After being closed for a moment, the five senses suddenly opened up, and the thoughts in the brain were extremely surging, even making Li Yan clearly feel his own "multi-threaded processor".

[Cognitive breakthrough activated, first-level skill]

No, it's too simple, isn't it? Can you at least introduce it to me?
What is "cognitive breakthrough"... and there is no score value. It seems that the first-level skills only have whether they are activated or not, and there is no numerical difference.

Li Yan has not yet felt the explosive experience brought by the second-level skill's enhanced radiation. It should be said that this first-level skill does not have any radiation at all.

Got it, mechanism-based skills!
[Does the first-level skill affect the system itself? ]

【right】

The feeling of ecstasy directly broke through the top of his head, and Li Yan came back from his trance in an instant. He couldn't help jumping up from the chair and cheering.

This time, Wang Zi happened to be standing at the door, and a loud "Oh" frightened her so much that she froze.

"Boss Li, is there something happy going on?"

"Have."

Since the boss didn't want to talk, the housekeeper naturally had no reason to continue asking, so he started to talk about his purpose:

"I just received a call. Professor Mai wants to hold a preliminary results meeting in a week to review the current progress and follow-up research directions." "No problem. I'll arrange it with Professor Mai later."

"Mr. Li, do we need to have a meeting in advance to let you know the current research situation?"

"no need."

Realizing that Li Yan was speaking hurriedly, Wang Zi understood and nodded and left.

Li Yan's mind was full of the development of the first-level skills, and he simply locked the door after Wang Zi left.

From the name, we can guess that this skill may be to assist Li Yan in generating bold imaginations about what the skill can do. It has been confirmed before that although the activation and improvement of skills are based on Li Yan's cognition, it is impossible for him to achieve whatever he wants.

It's impossible that he thinks he can fly, and then jumps every day to really activate "flying", right?

In other words, Li Yan's cognition is used to open the way, and only when the corresponding route is reached can the skill be activated.

Whether he can reach the end of these skill routes in the future depends on Li Yan’s own efforts.

Daydreaming is useless, so Li Yan sat down directly in front of his computer desk and dug out the difficult problems that were piling up on his desk - all of them came from the Hetu system R&D team, including several brothers who went to the dormitory to write code after class at Huazhong University.

They were making rapid progress, and the difficulties they encountered were beginning to make Li Yan a little overwhelmed, which was also something that had made him extremely anxious before.

The experience of being chased by someone is something I have never experienced before.

In the final analysis, it's my own fault for standing still.

"Come on, system, let me see what the first-level skill can do."

Li Yan began to think with great concentration, and half an hour passed in a flash.

The good news is that he felt the presence of the first-level skill, like an invisible hand helping him organize his thoughts.

The bad news is that still nothing has been achieved, there is no sudden surge in skills, and no answers dropped out of the blue.

"It's too annoying, you little devil..." Li Yan sighed, "It's so difficult to unlock a skill, I have to study it in the dark."

However, after his thoughts became clear, Li Yan also realized that his current approach was not right.

After all, computer is a domain-based skill, and the prerequisite for improvement is the accumulation of knowledge. It is meaningless for Li Yan to focus directly on solving problems.

He didn't know it before, and the first-level skill didn't bring him any new knowledge, so naturally he still didn't know it.

“We need to upgrade the hardware first.”

The easiest hardware to improve is naturally the second-level skill "speed". After all, this item now only has 5 points, 50% progress.

Logically speaking, with Li Yan's current overall strength, the speed should have been increased to 60% long ago.

"Cognitive breakthrough, don't let me down, system, add some points!"

Of course no response...

wrong?

Li Yan just went over everything related to "speed" in his mind and recalled the key nodes along the way of his improvement, which could be said to be a moment.

But suddenly, in an imaginary space, he saw giant synapse-like objects floating around him, entangled and connected with each other, and beating gently, which made Li Yan feel uncomfortable.

Is this what the system showed him?

It was still a pair of invisible big hands that led the blue electric current, attracting Li Yan to explore step by step until he saw a beating blue synaptic ball.

Fluorescent.

Smoothly and naturally, Li Yan gained a new understanding of the "speed" skill.

What is meant by fast is that it takes less time from the starting point to the end point.

In addition to increasing speed, shortening the distance is also a solution.

Li Yan had been accelerating without looking back, but he couldn't accelerate whenever he wanted.

Moreover, other skills that should have been intertwined and enhanced with each other have now become a hindrance.

No matter how fast your thinking is, the hardware must keep up.

Taking in a huge amount of information in a short period of time requires a very high level of brain processing ability.

Now the system directly tells him a new path - optimization.

Optimize your way of thinking, make the thinking path shorter, and retrieve the knowledge stored in the brain faster and more concisely.

In other words, Li Yan's previous improvement was to "accelerate" all the way to the end, and he might have reached the level of 60 points, but the "optimization" side had basically not developed, which dragged down the value of the entire skill.

To be honest, this method is not something earth-shattering. Li Yan has been optimizing the system of his mobile phone recently, and his mind is full of this idea.

The problem is, this is no different than the bullshit in football where all you have to do is kick the ball into the other team's goal.

At best, I understand that "I still have to do a good job of defense to lose fewer balls."

The key is how to do it!

He is a human being, not a computer program, so how can he be optimized just like that?
Oh, it really works.

Otherwise, why do you say it is a level one skill?

Li Yan thought that this skill was auxiliary and that he could just give a guide at the critical moment.

He could accept it. After all, for this system, it was very important to figure out the direction of improvement.

Asking the system won't give any results. It will only answer if you are right, and it can't answer exhaustively. It is of no use except for serving as a confirmation.

Unexpectedly, when Li Yan returned to reality from the imaginary space, that is, after his five senses returned to their original positions, his mind seemed to have been sorted out, and his expression was extremely clear.

This was an extremely wonderful experience. Li Yan only felt that his brain had been partitioned. Retrieving knowledge and memory was like opening a cabinet, so his associative ability was greatly improved.

With almost no effort, he experienced what it was like to "optimize your way of thinking."

Whenever he thinks of something now, all the related things will pop up in his mind, making it easier for him to extract valid data.

Logically clear classification, extracting only valuable data, triggering correlation linkage, multi-threaded processing...

More efficient operation, more accurate searching, more systematic classification, more direct linkage... combined together naturally means faster speed.

Isn’t this just a fucking awesome computer system?

Obviously, Li Yan is now better able to utilize his outstanding memory, reaction, concentration and other abilities, so he can't say whether the system directly gave him "optimization" or he already had this foundation and just opened up his Ren and Du meridians.

Ding!
[Speed ​​+1, Level 6 skill, total ]

The improvement in skills came naturally. Li Yan felt that everything around him slowed down because he observed the world faster and absorbed and processed information faster.

The feeling of information overload that I had before did not appear this time. Instead, there were a few moments when my brain went blank because I was thinking too fast.

It will take some time to get used to it.

But...it's so cool, right?
Li Yan could no longer suppress the anger on his face, so he stood up and threw a punch.

My movements have become smoother, and it seems that even the speed of "nerve conduction" has become faster.

Or maybe even the efficiency of signal transmission can be improved?

If things continue to develop in this way, it is only a matter of time before we have computer-level computing power!
The excitement began to come in waves. This skill was obviously designed to break through the 60% barrier. Li Yan couldn't wait to see what else the system could bring and what kind of scenery life would bring.

On this day, Sun Miao, who had finished compiling the interim results report, walked to the door of Li Yan's office. Just as he was about to knock on the door, he heard the boss in the office laughing and reciting a poem:
"You will be at the top of the mountain, and you will be able to see all the mountains and small mountains at a glance!"
