Chapter 409: Changing Binding Objects

Gu Jiayue was stunned for a moment, then realized that the system in Zhang Yangzai's mind had probably changed its binding object.

She was delighted, thinking that what she had just said had some effect.

In any case, Zhang Yangzai is no longer in danger.

However, this system is quite picky, and any character you change the binding object to will become a difficult character.

"What do you think? Are you planning to bind it?" Gu Jiayue suppressed the turmoil in her heart and asked calmly.

Gu Yuchuan didn't answer immediately. He lowered his eyes slightly, hiding the emotions in his eyes, and communicated with the system that suddenly broke in in his mind. "What's the benefit of binding with you?"

"What is your mission? What do you need me to do?"

The system knew the human before it was far more formidable than the child in bed. His aura suggested he was no simpler being. It was still only a low-level system, and if it tried to play tricks on a host like that, it would be tricked without even realizing it.

Therefore, when facing such a host, sincerity is the greatest killer skill.

Besides, the system and the host are originally one. Hiding too many secrets will easily create a gap, which is not conducive to the progress of the mission.

A mechanical voice echoed in Gu Yuchuan's mind. "The benefit is that I can help you achieve your dream. The task is simple. As long as you kill this woman in front of you within ten days, I will give you everything you want. For example, the power and status you desire most."

Gu Yuchuan raised his eyes and looked at Gu Jiayue steadily, his eyes dark. His sister was even more powerful than he had imagined. To think that such a strange creature had come specifically to assassinate her.

"Its mission appears to be to kill you. In this case, do you still want me to bind it?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the system in his mind made a sharp explosion! "Host, why did you tell her about our mission!"

It's okay for Zhang Yangzai to reveal the mission just now, after all, he's just a child and doesn't understand the seriousness of the matter. But his new host is no fool, so why did he just say it out loud?

Although it didn't matter whether he said it or not, after all, Gu Jiayue already knew it. But he really didn't expect the host to do this.

It felt like being backstabbed.

Why not just choose a new host!

Gu Jiayue sighed. It was completely awful.

She actually had doubts about what Zhang Yangzai said just now. After all, the child was still young and had been tortured for so long, so it was normal for him to have auditory hallucinations.

But Gu Yuchuan is an adult with normal intelligence. He couldn't have heard it wrong, and he wouldn't use such a thing to make a fuss.

"Can you help me ask it why?"

Gu Yuchuan raised his eyebrows and asked in his mind: "Why kill her? Does she have any special purpose?"

The system naturally knew the two were communicating, but at this point, there was no need to be shy. It responded directly, "There's no reason. This is how the Lord God arranged the task."

It is just a system. You just need to accept the task and there is no need to ask why it was issued.

"Host, please make a decision as soon as possible! If there is no response within three minutes, this system will eliminate the host!" The system's voice suddenly became cold and threatening.

"Oh? You're going to kill me if I don't agree?" Gu Yuchuan raised the corner of his mouth with a sarcastic arc, his tone full of disdain.

The system mechanically responded, "Yes. The existence of the system does not allow anyone other than the host to be informed."

"Then why didn't you kill him?" Gu Yuchuan raised his chin and pointed at Zhang Yangzai on the bed, his eyes as sharp as a knife.

"He was once the system's host. The system cannot physically erase the host," the system explained. "But I have erased his memory of the system. When he wakes up, he won't remember being bound to the system."

I see.

Gu Yuchuan understood and thought that this setting was quite interesting.

He then asked, "What if I don't want to kill the person in front of me after we're bound together?"

"Then severe punishment will await the host, just like this child." The system's voice was calm.

Gu Yuchuan finally understood that Zhang Yangzai's inexplicable illness was caused by this system. He looked at Gu Jiayue calmly and spread his hands. "It seems that I don't have much choice."

Gu Jiayue nodded. "Then you bind to it first and stabilize it. We'll work together to figure out how to handle the subsequent tasks."

Isn't it just to kill her? It's no big deal, but you're acting like no one has died.

Gu Yuchuan nodded: "Okay, then let's bind it."

After receiving a positive answer, the system's binding program started running at high speed.

In just one minute, all the procedures were ready. Gu Yuchuan just needed to press confirm, and the two of them would be tied to the same rope.

Gu Yuchuan didn't hesitate at all and clicked OK.

In an instant, he clearly "saw" the appearance of the system in his brain.

It was a jumble of light and shadow, incredibly ugly.

As soon as the binding was completed, the system eagerly issued a task. A mechanical voice exploded in my mind. "Now issuing a system task. Host, please kill the target Gu Jiayue within ten days!"

Ten days?

Time is so short, it seems this task is quite urgent.

Gu Yuchuan spoke with embarrassment, "I'm just an unarmed scholar. How can I kill her? Didn't you say you were omnipotent? Is there anything that can help me complete the task?"

The system didn't refute the question, but directly brought up the store page. "Here are various weapons, poisons, and items. The host can purchase them with points."

Gu Yuchuan took a quick look and thought, wow, these are all good stuff. But he spread his hands. "But I don't have any points."

His tone was calm, as if he was saying that the weather was really nice today.

"You will get points after completing this task." The system replied.

“How can I complete the mission without points?”

"You can only get points if you complete the tasks."

"But I don't have points to buy props, and I can't complete the task without props." Gu Yuchuan coaxed patiently, with a hint of cunning in his tone.

…

The mission seemed to have hit a dead end.

Gu Yuchuan only felt that the system in his mind was constantly flashing colorful lights and seemed to be very busy, but he couldn't tell what it was busy with.

Gu Jiayue sat quietly on a chair beside her, watching Gu Yuchuan deal with the system.

She also clearly felt the feeling of being explored just now.

Fortunately, before coming to this room, she had the system temporarily block each other's brain waves, and also had the system hide in the deepest warehouse of the school and hide it with the simulated skin she had bought before.

So the system didn't detect any useful information just now.

She had previously persuaded the system to unbind Zhang Yangzai, but it was just an attempt. After all, it was really difficult to complete the task by binding a child.

I didn't expect that the system would actually work.

Judging from the conversation between Gu Yuchuan and it, this system only operates according to the settings and cannot be flexible. Its intelligence level is probably not as good as her classmate Xiao Du.

This isn't difficult to deal with.

As long as she raises Xiao Du's level, those at the same level won't have to worry about being forced to hand over.

If there are enough points, you can even upgrade Xiao Du to level 41 and force the other party to hand over.

But……

Gu Jiayue quietly opened the system page and looked at the only five education values ​​on it, feeling bitter.

Forget it, I can’t afford to live and I can’t afford to upgrade.

The education points earned today are still useful.

The village's water supply was already in crisis. It was barely enough, but who doesn't have relatives? If people came asking for water, knowing there was enough but not giving it, I'm afraid a fight would break out, causing even greater trouble.

Besides, I can't bear it. I can't just watch my parents, brother and sister-in-law die of thirst, right?

So most of the villagers gave away some of the water in their homes, which seemed even less than enough.

She had to use her education points to buy water and put it in the village's large reservoir.

Alas, education points are needed everywhere, and there is never enough anywhere.

Gu Jiayue sighed softly, a hint of sadness between her brows.

The system's voice resounded in Gu Yuchuan's mind, a hint of urgency after the confusion. "Host, how can you complete the mission?"
