Gu Shi thought about it carefully and wrote a concise and clear message on it, stating his identity, experience, and purpose of seeking help from the system.
After checking it one last time and finding no problems, he clicked the Submit button at the bottom. Seeing the successful submission prompt pop up on the screen, Gu Shi breathed a sigh of relief.
He didn't leave immediately, but sat on the bench and stared blankly.
Gu Shi didn't know how long it would take for the system to see the message he submitted, nor did he know whether the system would reply at all, so he planned to wait here for an hour.
If there was no response, he would come more often, sending a message every day to harass the system. Anyway, he didn't have any important plans and had plenty of free time.
An hour later, having received no response, Gu Shi left.
Then the second day, the third day...
When he arrived at the copy point for the fifth time, Gu Shi finally received a response from the system.
After clicking OK to submit again, a chat page automatically jumped out on the screen in front of Gu Shi.
The top of the page showed "Input in Progress", and within a few seconds a message appeared.
[System: Hello, Gu Shi. I understand your purpose and am happy to help you. What exactly is the problem you are encountering?]
When Gu Shi sought help, he did not give a long speech, but just gave a general description of the situation, so the system asked this question.
Gu Shi: It's like this. I obtained the third treasure from Senior Chi Xiang. It's a flute, but it looks damaged. I'd like to know if there's any way to restore it.
Gu Shi: Also, I have no idea how to combine the three treasures into one. Do you have any good suggestions?
System: Please put the flute into the inspection box below. I need to conduct a comprehensive inspection on it and understand its condition before I can give you corresponding suggestions.
System: I have concealed the area you are in. Don’t worry about your actions being seen by others.
System: Regarding your second question, I don’t know much. I only know that the opportunity for this matter lies with you, and it can only be accomplished by you. I can’t provide any help.
System: Sorry. 】
After seeing the system's reply, Gu Shi was not disappointed. Instead, he felt that it was as he expected. He knew that things would not be that simple.
[Gu Shi: It’s okay. You’ve already helped me a lot by giving me some advice on the flute.
Gu Shi: Thank you.
After replying to the message, Gu Shi took out the flute and placed it into the ball of light that suddenly appeared in front of him.
About half an hour later, the ball of light finally spit out the flute.
[System: I have understood the specific situation. I still need some time to review the information before I can provide a suitable repair method. Please come back in three days.
Gu Shi: Okay, thank you for your help.
After finishing the conversation with the system, Gu Shi stood up, stretched, and slowly went home.
Three days later, it was the same place.
[System: According to my judgment, Chi Xiang most likely used some means to absorb all the power of the flute, so its appearance has become like this.
System: Fortunately, the flute's foundation is strong enough that it can be repaired. The method is relatively simple, requiring only appropriate techniques to replenish the missing energy.
System: You don’t have to worry about the materials and methods required for this. I can help you complete it. However, I counted the inventory and found that some materials are still missing.
System: I have already issued the relevant tasks to other people. I will also give you a list of materials here. You can also look for it yourself later.
Gu Shi: Do these materials still exist? If there is no corresponding place of origin, please refer to it.
System: You misunderstood. These materials are all produced in another world. I have selected them as substitutes with similar or identical effects. The various products from the world of immortal cultivation in the past are now basically extinct.
System: Please send the flute over first. It will take some time for it to fully recover. The sooner you start, the sooner you can finish.
Gu Shi: Okay.
Gu Shi put the flute into the ball of light just like last time. After a moment, the flute disappeared, and then the ball of light suddenly spit out a round jade disk for him.
[System: This is the communicator I gave you. You just need to input magic power into it and a chat page like this will pop up to contact me. I will try my best to reply in time.
Gu Shi: I understand. Thank you for helping me so much.
System: You're welcome. We share the same mission and are comrades on the same front. When I help you, I'm also helping myself.
Seeing the system say this, Gu Shi hesitated for a while, and finally asked a question.
[Gu Shi: What is the current situation on Blue Star?]
Gu Shi saw that the message "Typing" was displayed at the top of the screen for a long time, and a new message popped up after a long time.
[System: I don't want to lie to you. The current situation is not optimistic. Although I have tried my best to control the monsters' attacks, the number of monster armies sent by the extraterritorial demons is increasing.
System: You may have noticed that space rifts are appearing more and more frequently. Although humans can still keep up with their pace of appearance by clearing them, this may not be the case if the situation continues to develop like this.
System: There are still a group of gods in the other world, and we don’t even have a high-end combat force here, which makes many things very troublesome to deal with. I...
System: Sorry, I can’t help but complain to you.
Gu Shi: It’s okay, I understand. You must have put in a lot of effort for Blue Star to maintain the current basically peaceful situation.
Gu Shi: Thank you for your hard work.
Gu Shi thought about the development of the entire Blue Star over the years. The system was always pushing it forward. Just thinking about it, he knew that he must have put a lot of thought into it.
The spirit of the weapon, the spirit of the weapon, even if the system is not a human being, it has already developed intelligence similar to that of humans. It is not a pure machine and naturally has its own emotions.
Gu Shi was really grateful for everything he had done.
【System: ...Thank you for your understanding.
System: I will try to repair the things you gave me as soon as possible. I have other things to do later, so let’s talk about this for now.
Gu Shi: Okay, I'll trouble you with the flute. I will also think more about finding an opportunity and try to find a way as soon as possible.
System: Well, good luck to you, bye.
Gu Shi: Goodbye.]
Gu Shi sighed. It was not easy for everyone to save Blue Star.
