Chapter 248 (Catching Bugs)
"Host, how many days do you plan to rest this time?"
The system asked as it looked through the task results for this time.
Although this is not a mission world assigned by the General Administration, it is still a small trip and there must be travel expenses.
With this thought in mind, the system opened the panel and exclaimed in surprise.
"What's wrong?" Yun Mian looked over curiously.
"We seem to have brought back something incredible..." The system hesitated a little, stared at the thing for a moment, and then showed it to Yun Mian.
There was no reward for completing the mission, but a... small ball of light? ?
It is a little smaller than the system and looks like it is underdeveloped, but it does look somewhat similar to the system.
Yun Mian was also stunned when she saw this, and after a moment she asked tentatively: "Is this what we brought back?"
The system flew over and touched the small ball of light curiously, but it bounced back with a "whoosh" and flew behind Yunmian in panic. After a few seconds, it secretly stuck out half of its body to observe this strange place.
system:"……"
Yun Mian was silent for a moment, and tried to open his palms towards the small ball of light.
The next second, the small ball of light that had just been avoiding the system fell into her palm obediently and rubbed it coquettishly.
Yunmian, System: "..."
Yunmian simply sat down on the soft carpet, holding the small ball of light that looked only about the size of a bottle cap and asked it softly: "Who are you? Can we communicate?"
The light ball flew up and down, and the next second, a small light screen appeared in front of Yunmian's eyes, with a line of small words clearly written on it:
"Hello, Master. I am your creation, and you haven't given me a name yet."
Yunmian slowly closed her mouth which was slightly open due to surprise.
The system fell to the carpet with a plop and rolled twice numbly.
Yun Mian didn't remember having any strange creations. She tilted her head to look at the ball of light. After a while, she caught the system uncle who was about to slip away and asked him in a low voice: "Uncle, could it be that you secretly gave birth to this ball?"
After all, the two goals scored by one player on the field are suspicious no matter how the system uncle looks at it!
And if it wasn't guilty, why would it run? !
The system was furious for a moment: "...How can a system give birth to a child? Even if the entire small world exploded, I can't give birth to such a big baby, okay??!"
Yun Mian innocently put her hands together. The two light balls, one big and one small, looked very similar. The system's argument, which had just been so confident, was stuck for a moment, and it didn't utter a single word for a long time.
Finally, it had to play rogue and said: "Anyway, it has nothing to do with me. If you want to know how it came about, ask it yourself. I'm going to check my system ranking. Bye!"
After saying that, he ran away.
However, after slipping out of the house, it jumped up and down outside the door like a madman.
Ahh ...
No...wait!!!
The system seemed to have remembered something and suddenly stopped in mid-air. It took a long while before it stiffly flipped through the reward inventory that it and the host had sealed.
No, no, still no!!
I turned all the inventory upside down and scanned all the gold fingers over and over again, but in the end I couldn't find the thing.
The system thought of the small ball of light in the room, and a not-so-pleasant thought gradually arose in its mind.
…That shouldn’t be the case, right?
Although he told himself this, he was still extremely panicked inside. He did not even bother to look at his ranking and turned around and rushed into the house.
Then I saw the host skillfully placing the small ball of light on his head.
The system exploded again.
"Mianmian!! That's clearly my seat—"
Before he could finish his words, he had already rushed over, pushed the little fellow down, and squatted steadily on top of his host's head, angrily declaring his sovereignty over the position.
No one can occupy my throne, not the cat, and now not this inexplicable ball of light!
Yun Mian touched Uncle System who was about to explode with anger, then lowered her head to pick up the small ball of light that had fallen beside her and rolled around for several times, patted it gently with her fingertips, held it in her palm and said to Uncle System: "It said that it recorded all the food ingredients in the last mission world. Uncle System, it looks a lot like you, so it should also be a system, right?"
Hearing this, the system replied angrily: "It's barely passable. I don't know where a wandering soul took advantage of the loophole and ran into the original component. Otherwise, how could the original game system I retrieved become like this?!"
It took a huge fight to get the golden finger back for the host, but in the end it was just given to another soul. The system is so angry that it is about to vomit blood. When it sees this little ball of light, it wants to beat it!
It would be best to beat it back to its original state, pull out the soul hidden inside, and beat it hard a hundred or eighty times, otherwise it will be difficult to relieve the hatred in its heart.
The original components of the game system are very precious. Even if they are slightly damaged, it will cost a lot of points to repair them, let alone being directly taken back by the system.
That auxiliary component can help the game system pull out the life soul, and then put it into the game world selected by the game system to play the game. This is one of the other party's extremely important core components, but the host hasn't used it yet...
The system became angrier and angrier as it thought about it. It simply stopped caring about bullying and flew down from Yunmian's head, grabbed the small ball of light and started beating it up.
He was beating and muttering at the same time, with such a ferocious posture that Yun Mian didn't dare to go up to stop the fight for a while.
The small light ball belongs to a new system, and it is not a system with maximum attack power, so it is completely suppressed by the system uncle.
Yun Mian didn't feel sorry for it. After all, compared to him, Uncle System was the only system that truly accompanied her through one small world after another. Although the little light ball called her master and said it was her creation, but... people have different levels of closeness and distance, and there is a first come first served order. Yun Mian was clearly double-standard in this matter.
So after the system happily bullied the novice system, it discovered that the host was actually concerned about whether it was injured first, and the anger in its heart finally subsided.
Then he pushed the small ball of light, which was actually not injured at all, towards Yunmian.
He hummed and said, "Mianmian, no matter whose soul this component absorbed before, it has now merged with the original component. That soul will no longer have its own memories. From now on, it will be completely your creation. You can put it into a suitable world. It will find a host on its own, bind to it, cooperate with the host, and then provide you with some energy."
Yunmian: “…”
She felt as if she had heard something extraordinary.
Is this something you can just say casually?
The system seemed to understand her doubts. Seeing this, it slowly flew to her head and squatted down again, then explained to her: "There is nothing to hide. We, the system, knew from the very beginning that we are not real technological creations. We are actually souls, but the adults in the General Administration gave us a place to stay, so we work diligently for them."
"We have a relevant contract with the host, and we also have a labor contract with the General Administration. Generally, our souls will be bound to our bodies, which means that we are about to reach the state of ashes and smoke when we were alive, or we have signed a contract with the adults in the General Administration while we are conscious. Otherwise, it is absolutely impossible for us to be compatible with mechanical technology creations."
"The General Administration has archive records for each system. Each system knows the small world where it came from, so Mianmian, your little light ball will also be registered later. However, the profits it creates, apart from the host it is bound to, the remaining two-thirds belong to you, and the last one-third belongs to the General Administration. That is also used to provide the necessary energy to maintain the system's functions."
In fact, it had not expected that the host would be exposed to these things so early, and because of thousands of mission failures in the past, the system instinctively felt that it and the host were actually very far away from this step.
When the system pulled that thing back in the last world, it had thought that one day in the future the host might have his own creation, just like the adults in the General Administration, but Mianmian was always a child in its eyes, and it never dreamed that this day would come so early and so coincidentally.
You must know that the conditions for the birth of a new system are extremely harsh. Not only does it require sufficient merit, it also requires the assistance of the breath of the original world of the General Administration, a mechanical body that can be transformed as a container, and the creator must have sufficient related talents and abilities.
In addition, the most important thing is to have a soul that is complete but on the verge of collapse and no longer has reincarnation, and that fits perfectly with the mechanical container...
Any one of these conditions is very difficult to achieve, so the idea it originally had in mind was to take it step by step, slowly helping the host to gather these conditions, and then try again and again. After all, having these conditions is not enough, and enough luck is also needed.
Now it seems... my host's luck is simply against the sky.
But it didn't expect the new system to be so small and weak.
Thinking of this, the system stopped explaining to the host, and couldn't help but fly down again, knocking on the small light ball unhappily: "Why are you so small? The new systems here are at least twice as big as you."
It's not like this little guy was really born through "delivery", so there shouldn't be any malnutrition in this little guy.
The small light ball seemed to be frightened by it, and shrank back for a while, before new words appeared on the light screen.
[Because my master is still a child, when she grows up, I will grow up too. ]
system:"……"
He looked back at Mianmian and nodded suddenly.
If it was Mianmian from a few worlds ago, she would indeed be an adult, but the current Mianmian... no matter how much growth she has experienced, she can always maintain her original intention when she was five years old, so she can always maintain her age and height of five years old in the system space, and even her actions and speech tend to be more like a cub's thinking.
Once the system's questions were answered, it stopped pestering the other party.
Although the original device that it had finally retrieved was occupied by an inexplicable soul, since it has become a reality, it can only comfort itself that it is a good thing that the host has gained an extra worker in advance.
But when I reach the next world, I must convince the host to secretly throw it away!
Let it quickly bind to another host, and stop being an eyesore in front of its own host. What's wrong with recording the food and cooking methods of the entire world? Anyway, the host's food skills are lit up by himself, so he doesn't need its assistance!
What's more, the host is working hard to complete the task. As the host's creation, why should the little light ball be idle in the system space?
Thinking of this, the system no longer cared about its own points ranking. It stayed by Mianmian's side from beginning to end, always keeping an eye on the little ball of light, strictly preventing it from getting even one step closer to its host. It also said that most of the systems in the entire General Administration had never even seen their owners when they were born, and it was very lucky to be able to see them. Then it coaxed the little ball of light out to take the General Administration's required system courses.
When the light ball floated back dazed with a head full of necessary knowledge about the system, it finally had its own name and installed the corresponding sound program.
"Hello, Master. I am System No. 9973, affiliated with the Food Bureau. I will work hard in the future to become an excellent system under the Master's name, and will also work hard to become the most trusted partner of the bound host."
The voice is soft, just as it says, it is a system that has not grown up. Not only is its body small, but its voice is also soft and babyish, like a child who has just learned to speak.
It foolishly thought that 9973 was its name.
Yunmian thought of the system uncle's self-introduction, pursed her lips, and said to her God of Food system with a smile: "9973 is just your system number. I have already thought of a name for you, Xiao Tiangao. I like sweet millet cakes the most, and my sisters love them too. You must have grown up secretly in our love."
She stretched out her white and tender fingertips and gently poked the little ball of light. It spun around for a while, then rolled back dizzily, happily rubbing against its owner's fingertips. It replied softly, "Thank you, little sweetie, Master~ I really like this name!"
It’s a name given by the owner himself!
Don’t underestimate it because it’s small and stupid. During the past few days of learning, I have secretly asked about it. Other systems don’t have names!
Only you have it~ Your master must be the best creator in the world!
system:"……"
Sure enough, the object resembles its owner.
The brand new system, the sweet baby, says goodnight to the aunts~
I hope every day of all the aunts can be as sweet as my name~
