Chapter 66
Chapter 66: [Low Virtue] Upgraded to Lv.10, Version Update 2.0
After Lin Shen went upstairs, he immediately opened the package and arranged the contents on the coffee table one by one.
Sony A7M4 camera body, NP-FZ100 battery, charger, memory card, shoulder strap, body cap, and instruction manual.
There was also the additionally purchased 50mm F1.8 lens and camera tripod.
Lin Shen checked everything and confirmed there was no external damage before beginning to assemble the camera.
He inserted the battery and SD card, installed the lens, powered on, and set the language, time zone, and date.
After finishing these tasks, Lin Shen placed the camera on the table, and a sense of accomplishment welled up in his heart.
From now on, he could consider himself a novice photographer, right?
Lin Shen expectantly took out his phone, took a photo of his camera, then opened the [Camera Album] app.
The mission that had been dormant for several days was finally completed.
[Upgrade Mission: Please purchase a camera and begin your photography career (Completed).]
[Reward: Camera Album lv.1→lv.2]
[Photography skills enhanced by 20%-30%]
[Item Reward: Double Camera Cashback×1]
[Upgrade Mission: Please photograph a picture with “sunset” as the theme. The system will evaluate and settle based on compatibility.]
“China Construction Bank: Your account ending in 7946 received RMB 60,000 on August 11th at 16:32. Current balance: 490,000”
So it was actually cashback?
Lin Shen had some expectations for this reward, but he didn’t dare guarantee there would be cashback, which is why he set the camera price around thirty thousand.
If he had known in advance, he definitely would have bought something more expensive.
“Still, gaining sixty thousand out of thin air isn’t bad.”
Lin Shen understood the wisdom of being content with what you have.
The [Camera Album] mission was about taking photographs, which was somewhat similar to [Low Virtue].
Perhaps these two missions could be completed together.
Sunset, tranquil and peaceful.
Connecting these two keywords, there was only one place.
The park!
Lin Shen picked up his camera, adjusted the shooting parameters, then went downstairs and drove his newly picked-up Jaguar XFL out of the residential complex.
After all, sunsets appeared for only a brief time—miss it and you’d have to wait until tomorrow.
6:30 PM
Luqing Park.
The sunset was gradually setting, and the evening breeze was picking up.
The deep orange twilight cast a gentle filter over everything before his eyes, spreading out like golden gauze.
After parking his car, Lin Shen walked into the park, his feet treading on scattered, dappled golden light and shadows.
He held his camera while searching for suitable scenery, but hesitated every time he raised it.
If the mission reward was scored, perhaps he could consider it more carefully.
Lin Shen decided to explore deeper into the park.
Since Luqing Park was free admission, there were quite a few elderly couples strolling together, and even some high school students from nearby who had just finished school.
Lin Shen walked along the winding path, the fresh fragrance filling his nostrils suddenly calming his heart considerably.
According to relevant research, spending twenty minutes in nature daily can significantly reduce stress hormone levels in the human body.
This was equivalent to doing light exercise.
This was also the origin of the “park twenty-minute effect.”
Lin Shen experienced its effectiveness firsthand—it was indeed true.
Not only did his body and mind feel relaxed and comfortable, even the fatigue in his brain was slowly dispelled.
“Whew—!”
Lin Shen took a deep breath, then came to the lakeside.
A gentle breeze swept across the lake surface, the rippling waves connecting with the evening glow that dyed half the sky red, creating layers of ripples.
On a bench by the lake, an elderly couple sat hand in hand gazing into the distance, their faces kind and gentle.
Lin Shen felt this scene was good, so he raised his camera, planning to use the sunset as background for his photo.
However, at that moment, a happy family of three suddenly entered the frame—a little girl holding her parents’ hands, her smile incomparably bright.
What a coincidence—a high school couple also walked by.
The boy held a basketball in his right hand and tightly grasped the girl’s right hand with his left, her ponytail bouncing playfully, the hair tips flickering with gentle arcs of light in the sunset.
Click—!
The moment Lin Shen pressed the shutter, even he felt it was incredible.
Because the photo in the camera was simply too beautiful!
With the sunset and lake as background, the overlapping figures from front to back were the high school couple, the family of three, and the elderly couple sitting on the bench.
They happened to encompass youth, middle age, and old age, then walked into life’s “sunset,” merging with the actual dusk in the background.
[Upgrade Mission: Please photograph a picture with “sunset” as the theme (Completed).]
[Reward: Camera Album lv.2→lv.3]
[Photography skills enhanced by 30%-40%]
[Basic Reward: Random Attribute Point×1]
[Upgrade Mission: Please photograph a picture with “youth” as the theme]
[Evaluation: The photo doesn’t deliberately create dramatic scenes, but poetically reconstructs everyday scenes, elevating the sunset from a simple natural landscape to a metaphor for life.]
[System Score: S (200%)]
[Final Reward Settlement: Designated Attribute Points×2 (Please open “Personal Panel” to allocate)]
Freely allocatable attribute points?
This was a nice reward!
Lin Shen’s heart leaped with joy. He took out his phone and immediately opened the personal panel in [Sports Health].
Then, without hesitation, he allocated both attribute points to “Kidney Power.”
Hesitating for even a second would be disrespectful to it!
[Constitution: 71/71 (Healthy+)]
[Spirit: 72/72 (Calm+)]
[Kidney Power: 74 (72+2)/74 (72+2) (Virile+)]
[Length: 7cm/15.4cm, before/after]
[Height: 180cm; Weight: 78kg]
Looking at his personal panel, Lin Shen was very satisfied with his current physical condition.
Not only was his constitution healthy, but his masculine capabilities had also been greatly enhanced.
‘Hope I can put these enhanced attributes to use soon.’
Lin Shen thought silently to himself, closed [Sports Health], and casually opened [Low Virtue].
As expected, its mission was also completed.
[Upgrade Mission: Check in at a place in Magic City that you consider the most tranquil and peaceful (Completed).]

[Congratulations on successfully reaching lv.10! “Low Virtue” is beginning version update]
[2.0 version updating…]
An update?
Lin Shen couldn’t help but be surprised.
So cracked apps could update too!
It seemed the trigger condition was reaching level 10. He just didn’t know if there would be new content.
Lin Shen found a bench and sat waiting for [Low Virtue] to finish updating.
[Ding—!]
