Xin Sui: "Actually, thinking about it, staying here is not bad. I have superpowers and a spiritual spring. It's not impossible to live in another world. I don't necessarily have to go back to the modern world."
[Don't forget who gave you your special abilities and the spiritual spring; this system can give them to you and take them back.]
Xin Sui wasn't afraid at all, "Then you can take it."
Now it's the system's turn to freeze.
Without your superpowers and the spiritual spring, you could die at the hands of the main villain at any moment.
"So what if I die? I've already died so many times, what's one more time? At least I can find peace after I die."
"To hell with missions, to hell with mystical paths, I'm done!"
system:[……]
[Host, don't try to fool me. You even went to see the male lead and formed an alliance with him. If you really didn't want to do the mission, why did you go to him in the first place?]
Xin Sui: "Oh, I'm just curious about what the male lead looks like, and I'd like to chat with him a bit."
The system's intuition doesn't believe it.
[A casual chat led to an alliance? They even gave him a list of the Inner Earth Clan?]
"Although I am an outsider, I am still human. Now that I know the plot, there is no reason for me to stand idly by and watch humanity's life and death. Naturally, I should reveal this crucial information to Shui Duoduo, who is the male lead."
[So you're determined not to do any more missions?]
Xin Sui did not give a clear answer, as if he was too lazy to reply to the system's response, or as if he was leaving room for maneuver.
The system remained silent.
The one-man rule has led to a psychological tug-of-war.
Xin Sui continued to leisurely stroll through the botanical garden.
Anyway, she's not in a hurry.
The worst outcome is death.
But if she can gain the upper hand in this psychological tug-of-war, then she will have won.
In heterosexual relationships, it's always a matter of one side dominating the other; complete equality is impossible.
She and the system were pretty much the same.
When she first arrived in this world, she was completely clueless and knew nothing. She had no leverage and was naturally the one being controlled.
But the situation is different now.
She had gained confidence and also discovered the system's weaknesses.
Time passed slowly, and two hours were almost up.
But Xin Sui still showed no intention of doing the task.
The system couldn't sit still any longer.
The host can choose not to do the mission, but if it cannot reduce the villain's corruption level to zero and stop him from destroying the world, then it will be doomed!
[Host, tell me, what exactly do you want in order to continue the mission?]
A victor's smile flashed in Xin Sui's eyes.
The system was even more impatient than she had imagined.
Its behavior further confirmed her suspicions—
The system brought her to this world in the book and made her do tasks, not for fun or any other irrelevant reason, but for a very specific purpose.
That purpose is likely related to its very survival.
For example, if it fails to complete the mission, it will be destroyed by a higher-level being or something.
That's why it's so nervous.
This was also her bargaining chip in negotiations.
Xin Sui knew when to stop and didn't continue to act coy, stating his demands.
"I can continue doing tasks, but the rewards have to satisfy me. Don't try to fool me with hair growth cream or anything like that again. Give me something real, understand?"
She just inherited Lee Sulli's bald head; it doesn't mean she can't grow hair.
So what use is hair growth cream to her?
What is this hair growth cream? How could anything produced by our system be bad?
[After you apply this hair growth cream, you can grow thick, lustrous hair overnight, enough to completely cover your head, and it can prevent you from going bald. Aren't you tempted?]
To be honest, Xin Sui was indeed somewhat tempted.
But at this time, she absolutely cannot give in.
"Even if my hair is thick and beautiful, will it help my situation in any way? Will it be of any help to me in completing my mission?"
[...So what do you want?]
The system was secretly on edge, fearing that the host would make exorbitant demands.
It's important to understand that those rewards don't appear out of thin air; they are formed from the energy they condense. The greater the reward she wants, the more energy it consumes.
The previous spiritual spring had already caused it to bleed profusely.
That's why it plans to achieve the best mission results with the least cost this time.
However, as soon as it was implemented, it was met with protests from the host.
Xin Sui: "I want the country villa that I built with my own hands in my past life."
The villa was an expansion and renovation of the old house left by her grandfather. After the main structure was completed, she did most of the remaining decoration and furnishing by herself.
She poured a lot of effort into this house.
The moment it was completely finished, I felt an overwhelming sense of accomplishment and happiness.
She would stay there for a while after filming each movie.
Only there could she find complete relaxation.
After being in a car accident and transmigrating into a book, she didn't care about anything else, except for that house, which she was very concerned about.
The system's first reaction was that it wouldn't work.
It was already troublesome enough for it to carry her soul through the spatial barrier, so how could it possibly bring her house over as well?
Then it had a flash of inspiration: what the host wanted was her house, so why not just conjure up an identical one?
In this way, the energy consumed is negligible.
However, the system has also become smarter and started bargaining.
[The reward you requested is completely mismatched with the difficulty of the task. The system can only grant your request if you complete three similar tasks.]
