1, 2, and 4 are acceptable, and while 9 is very tempting and might actually lead to Mechanical Ascension, considering the historical context... Zhou Ning didn't want to lose any parts of his body.
Zhou Ning thought for a while and chose 1, 2, and 4.
[You have chosen Talent 1, Talent 2, and Talent 4.]
[Match successful. In this parallel world, you are a playboy, a Research Genius, and extremely talented in sports, both in and out of bed—if you ignore your Nike-like smile, you're actually quite likable.]
[The game ends when you die in the simulation.]
[Traveling through time... 1%... 33%... 65%... 95%... Swoosh... Transference complete.]
[You have traveled to London in 1894. From this moment, the wheels of history begin to turn.]
[December 17, 1894: Having just arrived in London, you are unfamiliar with the place and not keen on working, so you stand by the roadside contemplating life. You strike up a conversation with a blonde woman, but are rejected. You strike up a conversation with a brunette woman, but are rejected. You strike up a conversation with a brown-haired woman, but are rejected. You strike up a conversation with a red-haired woman, and with a crooked, charming smile, you succeed. You borrow some money from her to buy a dozen condoms at a shop. You buy a whip. After an hour of intimacy in a public restroom, you move into the red-haired woman's home. You have gained the skill: Expert Flirting Specialization.]
[December 18, 1894: You learn that the red-haired woman you casually met is Jenny, a long-widowed countess with immense wealth. Your first day after traveling was spent in bed...]
[December 19-20, 1894: Still spent in bed...]
[December 21, 1895: Weak in both legs and hands, you decide you can no longer indulge in lust. You are a Transcender, not some kind of human-shaped self-propelled cannon!
[December 22, 1895: Brutally counter-attacked. (Health -1, Happiness -1)]
[December 23, 1895: Still brutally counter-attacked. (Health -1, Happiness -1)]
[December 24, 1895: Feeling empty, you decide it's better to work. With your social skills and Research Genius, you find a job at an emerging tech company.]
[February 15, 1896: After two months of work, you've saved some money. You borrow a sum from your old lover, Jenny, and assemble a research team.]
[April 1896: You invent and improve the wireless telegraph.]
[August 1896: You invent the optical interferometer and use it for spectroscopy and fundamental metrology research. (You have gained the Specialty: Research Genius)]
[May 1897: You build the first airplane, break free from gravity, and successfully fly into the blue sky. (You have gained the Achievement: Top Gun)]
[June 1897: Your research achievements bring you substantial income. The money Jenny lent you yields a tenfold return, and you become Europe's hottest magnate. You officially enter the upper echelons of society and begin attending various banquets. At one such banquet, you meet George Bernard Shaw again. The fate between people is inexplicable; you become good friends for the third time. (You have gained the Achievement: Friends)]
[September 1897: At a banquet, George Bernard Shaw introduces you to a minor Italian nobleman. This time, you remember his name: William A. Zeppeli. This name sounds a bit familiar!]
[October 1897: Through your deliberate efforts, you quickly become close friends, after all, who could refuse the friendship of a cheerful and innocent gentleman? You learn that William A. Zeppeli's purpose in coming to England is to search for an evil stone mask. Wearing this evil mask can turn a person into a terrifying Vampire, and his father perished because of it.]
Zhou Ning:...stone mask!!!!
Seeing this, Zhou Ning couldn't help but slap his forehead! Oh my goodness!
Before, seeing late 19th century London and Vampires, he thought he had traveled to the world of "Interview with the Vampire" or "Bram Stoker's Dracula." Turns out, it's "JoJo's Bizarre Adventure"!
In the manga, William A. Zeppeli is the master of the manga's protagonist, Jonathan Joestar. He learned a skill called Ripple Breathing Technique in Tibet, which can simulate the power of sunlight and inflict significant damage on dark creatures, and can even slow down aging.
If he could learn the Ripple Breathing Technique from Zeppeli, that would be a huge gain.
The simulation continues.
[November 1897: You learn that Zeppeli possesses a secret technique called Ripple Breathing Technique, a powerful force that can simulate sunlight. In the name of your friendship, Zeppeli passes this secret technique on to you, on the condition that you help him retrieve the stone mask.]
[December 1897: As a rare sports genius, you have a special talent for the Ripple Breathing Technique and quickly master the skill completely. At the same time, you begin to try and find a nobleman named George Joestar. You have gained the skill: Ripple Breathing Technique (Beginner).]
[January 1898: The Ripple Breathing Technique is very effective for you; you clearly feel much more energetic. Honestly, you can't experience the joy of the rich. (Happiness +7)]
[April 1898: You begin to venture into more sports. You are the ruler of English football, scoring seven goals in one match. You are a sprinting star; your 100-meter dash time even broke 10 seconds 70 years ahead of its time, setting a world record. You even crossed the Atlantic Ocean without supplies.]
[Late July 1898: Your Ripple Breathing Technique becomes increasingly proficient, even surpassing Zeppeli's. Through his introduction, you meet his master, Master Dopie, a true Ripple Master.]
[August 1898: You unexpectedly discover that Erina actually knows George Joestar! She takes you to Liverpool to find George Joestar. Coincidentally, George Joestar's son, Jonathan Joestar, the first JOJO, is Erina's childhood friend! Indeed, childhood friends can't compare to fated encounters!]
[1898: Joestar's adopted son, Dio Brando. You quickly become friends, after all, who can refuse the friendship of a great scientist, famous footballer, and sports superstar? You discover that he actually has a great Research Genius. At your suggestion, he enters Oxford University for further study. Changing the life trajectory of an evil person, that feeling isn't bad.]
[October 1898: While visiting the Joestar family, you discover traces of the stone mask. After negotiations, you purchase it from George Joestar. You should have given it to Zeppeli to fulfill your promise, but out of a scientist's curiosity, you really want to study it, even though breaking your promise fills you with guilt. (You have gained the Epic Item: stone mask, Happiness -1)]
[1898-1899: Although there was no progress in the research on the stone mask, your scientific research continued. In two years, you successively obtained 67 invention patents, many of which brought you even greater income. Your income is enough to make everyone envious. You feel that your assets may not be less than those of old-money magnates. (Family Wealth +11)]
[September 1899: You make an astonishing discovery: a "Doppler-Fizeau effect" appears in the spectrum above the stone mask, exhibiting a redshift, both craving and repelling sunlight. Why is this? Also, when the stone mask is stained with blood, bone spikes capable of piercing the brain actually pop out from behind the mask. The wisdom of the ancients truly should not be underestimated...]
[October 1899: Your research achievements, the optical interferometer, and your studies in spectroscopy and fundamental metrology are nominated for the Nobel Prize in Physics! In the same month, you win the Nobel Prize in Physics! This is the lifelong pursuit of many scientists. (Happiness +3)]
