Legacies.
Legacies were Inheritances left behind by great beings of the past or those seeking to find heirs and successors to their names.
Legacies were incredibly in the fact that once you completed their assigned trials, you could obtain a various amount of things.
Classes, Items, Skills, Abilities etc.
Legacies were basically a loot box of incredible goodies that can take a man from mediocrity into beings of great power.
And infront of him laid thousands of those.
Legacy Of The Iron Legion, an Iron Man Legacy.
Legacy Of The Planet Buster, a Hulk Legacy and so on.
There were even Legacies of people that he didn't even think were in the Marvel Universe.
Legacy Of The Blood Sorcerer, Legacy Of The Forge Master, Legacy Of The Pyromancer King.
All of them had a rating from the weakest F Grade to highest SSS Grade.
And as Jason expected, every single one of them was expensive as hell.
Needing hundreds of World Points to purchase even a single weak legacy.
Seeing this Jason wilted, grumbling to himself as he dismissed that specific shop panel.
So last but not least he finally looked through the Skill Panel.
He sighed out in relief at seeing the minimum price range of the skill, not bad he thought.
They were affordable at the very least and there were lots of them.
From simple trade skills, production skills all the way to martial skills of every type.
There was even knowledge type skills designated for scholars or the like.
Most of the mundane skills started at 5 World Points a skill so they were affordable.
What he needed though were combat skills.
Afterall he wasn't gonna able to survive in a zombie apocalypse world just by being a scientist.
So he browsed through the skill list and after a while he found a skill that seemed perfect for his current needs.
And to his luck the skill was A Grade, meaning that he could use his token which is exactly what he did.
" Do you accept to use your A Grade Skill Token for the Skill Martial Art: Coiling Echo Spiral?"
[~Martial Art: Coiling Echo Spiral[A] - The Coiling Spiral Style, a lost Martial Art created for the weak to overcome great threats. Utilising the bodies latent power the practitioner of this art utilises their body to nimbly deflect and use the opponent's strength against them.
- This style also allows the user to utilise combo styled attacks that have an echo effect, allowing each attack to deal compounded damage as if having attacked twice.
- This style is applicable for unarmed and armed combat combat.]
" Perfect, yes I would." He replied, already seeing the potential that the skill had.
He waited for only a second before he felt the knowledge and basic mastery of the skill ingrain itself into his body.
Once the knowledge transfer was completed he grinned.
The Martial Arts was incredible in his opinion, allowing him to fight above his weight class and the effect of having a single attack deal damage as if having attacked twice was also incredible.
The effect though seemed to use his bodies energies to activate—in this case it would use his mana.
" Now what other skill am I gonna get?" He wondered, scrolling through the catalogue again.
This time he'd be using his World Points to purchase, though he was gonna save up some so he could buy another multiplier mode.
Meaning that he needed to save 10 World Points for a single mode unlock or 20 for two.
He'd see how much he can save after finding a skill that he wanted.
After a while of scrolling through multiple skills he finally found a skill that would resonate greatly with his class skills and make creating a cure for Black Widow way more easier.
The problem?
The Skill cost was exactly 30 World Points.
But it was worth it.
[~Blueprint Insight[S] - Grants the user insight on any recreatable item, allowing them the capability to intuitively know and understand the steps and base materials/ingredients for its creation.
- Grants the user the capability to intuitively deduce new blueprints for any material that they understand to a certain degree.]
The skill was one of the cheaper S graded skills, mostly because it really had no combat applications.
But for a scientist this skill was a godsend.
Also another thing he noticed about the shop, well, for the skill section atleast.
When one bought a skill, it disappeared from the shops catalogue.
He didn't know whether this was for certain skills or all of them but he atleast understood that some skills would be unique to one person if bought through the World Shop.
" Okay, I'm done." Jason told the white haired woman.
" I see, goodbye then and I hope to see you again Jason Ark." The woman said, looking at him a bit uncomfortably.
" Aha—Sure." Just after saying that he felt his consciousness shudder once more, then he was back in his laboratory.
" Well that was weird." He muttered then shrugged.
He had work to do and a widow to cure.
But first he wanted to see his current capabilities, so he called up his status and skill panel.

—Skill Points - 6
—[—]—
His class skills had leveled up from yesterday's research and studying spree, allowing him to get a couple levels in them.
And from the level up he also obtained Skill Points.
Unlike what he assumed at first, Skill points couldn't be used to level up skills.
Instead they were used to evolve them to the next grade, from F grade to E grade for example.
So finally seeing his enhanced capabilities he then focused on something else, his cheat.
