BXBX NOVEL Chapter 2823: Wild System Tasks
Also, those systems granted pretty much everything that was asked for to their hosts.
The tasks were extremely difficult, yet 2333 could still bring himself to shamelessly say they were simple—wasn’t it just because he wasn’t the one doing the tasks?
Although she now knew that 2333 was a person, Ning Shu still really wanted to spit in his face.
Ning Shu shook her head, saying, “I don’t want to do system tasks for the time being.”
System tasks were challenging, and one also had to carefully catch the timing of when a wild system detached from its host.
Furthermore, she never had much information on what the wild system was capable of.
So it was extremely hard to deal with.
“Let’s not do them for now,” Ning Shu said.2333 didn’t seem disappointed either. “Okay.”
“Why were you chosen to be a system?” Ning Shu asked.
2333 replied, “I don’t remember. I don’t remember anything from the past.”
Oh right, 2333 had his memories erased before being turned into a system.
She was currently bored, so she had wanted to chat about life with 2333, only to find out there wasn’t much of anything they could discuss.
Ning Shu sat cross-legged under the tree and made hand signs to set up a spirit-gathering formation. There wasn’t any sunlight at night, so she’d just absorb spiritual energy.
In any case, she could absorb both spiritual energy and yang energy. They were all the same, so she might as well absorb whatever was abundant.
After wandering for several days, Ning Shu found nothing of value—not even anything of just slightly higher quality.
Ning Shu took a deep breath. The air filled with spiritual energy was really refreshing.
Just as she closed her eyes to cultivate, a sudden noise interrupted her.
Ning Shu opened her eyes to see three people land in front of her.
Their landings caused waves of dust. Ning Shu expressionlessly looked at these people.
Two of them were familiar: the uncle who looked dressed for a funeral and the silver-haired profiteer. She didn’t recognize the third person.
“Why did we have to land here? It’s the middle of nowhere?”
“I detected that there was a task-taker near here. We can make use of them,” the silver-haired man said. Ning Shu was very familiar with his unhurried way of speaking.
“What kind of idiot task-taker would take on a task like this? This world is about to collapse. Even if they completed the task, it’d be pointless.”
Said idiot task-taker Ning Shu: …
The sky was full of stars, and the cool breeze brushed past gently— Ning Shu’s heart was very calm, not disturbed at all.
These people really had impeccable timing. Why were they nowhere to be seen when she was still caged?
And now the moment she escapes, they want to make use of her.
A man noticed Ning Shu who was sitting under the tree. “You must be the task-taker.”
Ning Shu stood up and shook her head. “I’m not.”
“You are.”
“Fine, I’m the idiot task-taker.”
“Oh, holding a grudge? You’re no idiot. You clearly knew that this world was about to collapse but still wanted to try to the best of your ability to fix it. You’re clearly an outstanding task-taker!” the unfamiliar man said.
Ning Shu: Ha. Ha.
This man had a fragrance around him, like he’d sprayed on perfume. However, it was currently nighttime, and they were in the woods, so she couldn’t really make out what he looked like.
The sight of the school doctor uncle dressed in black at night really made her speechless. He pretty much blended into the night.
The silver-haired man held a thick, leather-bound book as usual. This book didn’t seem to ever leave his hand.
Seeing these three, Ning Shu turned to leave. Although she didn’t know why they were here, she had her own task. She wasn’t here to be their servant.
The fragrant-smelling man blocked Ning Shu’s way. “Where are you going?”
“To poop.”
“Girls shouldn’t be so crude.”
