Chapter 001 Entering the Novel
Finally finished typing.
In another month, she will be able to finish writing this novel about business in another world.
Lin Muqiu stretched, rubbed his sore cervical vertebrae, and walked to the bathroom, preparing to brush his teeth and go to bed.
She used her thumb to press against the tip of the toothpaste bottle and struggled to squeeze out the remaining toothpaste, just like squeezing out her time.
She is a social animal, often working 996, and occasionally 007. After returning home, she uses the remaining time to write online articles.
The main reason I’m exploited at work is because I’m poor, but I write online articles purely because of my passion and... I can make money along the way.
She was a miser and she enjoyed making money, so even if she was tired, she still felt light-hearted.
But after a long time, her body could no longer bear it.
Just now, she could feel her heart aching slightly, as if a steady metronome had missed a beat.
Damn boss, why does he have to exploit his employees?
She secretly complained in her heart, spat out the white foam in her mouth, hurriedly washed her face with cold water, and without even bothering to apply facial cleanser, she quickly lay down and fell asleep.
At night she had a strange dream:
A bright crescent-shaped spot of light suddenly appeared, as warm as a blazing incandescent light, dazzling her eyes and asking her:
"Do you want to be exploited by your boss?"
She: “…nonsense.”
Who would want to be exploited?
Light ball: “…”
Lin Muqiu rolled his eyes.
Her novels are usually about redemption, infrastructure construction in another world, and farming.
Exploiting others? Not happening.
She wrote utopian worlds because she was fed up with the 007 in real life.
The ball of light pondered for a moment and asked her, "Then when you enter the other world, won't you become like your boss?"
Lin Muqiu said firmly: "No."
It is because I have been caught in the rain that I want to hold an umbrella for others.
The light ball became increasingly dazzling, like a bud about to bloom, gradually opening up and trembling slightly. "Then if I gave you the opportunity to travel into a novel you wrote, would you go?"
Lin Muqiu held his chin in his hand and pondered, "Then I'll have to think about it."
The modern world has a legal system, and personal safety can be guaranteed. The most important thing is to have a mobile phone. As for the other world, although the magical continent is interesting, it does not have the three-piece set of mobile phones, WiFi, and computers.
Guangtuan: "Don't think about it, you have already died suddenly."
Lin Muqiu: “?”
*
Lin Muqiu finally accepted the fact that he had died of a sudden heart attack in the middle of the night.
She blinked, and her soul seemed to leave her body and saw her body lying on the bed, her lips quickly turning pale and losing their color.
It's also her fault. She refused to take a rest even though she was so tired.
But in a single-parent family, you can only rely on yourself. What else can you do if you don’t work hard?
The ball of light sensed her dimming eyes and said, "Host, don't be sad. If you go to another world, you will meet many people who like you there."
Lin Muqiu raised his eyebrows: "I don't feel bad about anything else, I just feel bad about the money I didn't spend."
The ball of light emitted a wave. "Host, I have reported your situation to the main system. As long as you accept the crossing, you will receive a storage ring with unlimited storage space."
"Also, your real-life money can be used to purchase game items in the exclusive mall, or you can exchange it for real-life goods at modern prices, put it in a storage ring, and bring it to the other world."
"If you haven't used up all your cash, the remaining cash will be converted into copper coins at a one-to-one ratio and placed in your backpack."
Lin Muqiu nodded with a smile, "The design is very user-friendly. Are there any other benefits?"
The light ball replied, "If you are concerned about your personal safety, you can choose one of the following attributes: [Magic], [Attack], [Defense], [Health], [Cooking], [Forging], [Endurance], and increase it to the maximum level."
It's tempting enough indeed.
Lin Muqiu pondered for a long time.
In the novel, high-level magicians are rare, but those who can reach the maximum level are absolutely unique.
"Then choose magic."
Lin Muqiu did not hesitate and made up his mind immediately.
Among these attributes, the rest can be improved through continuous practice, but magic is closely related to talent and is difficult to improve in the later stages.
The magic attribute corresponds to the mage's level. A high-level mage can fight in a long range. At level 99, anyone he hits will die. Although he is a bit fragile, this can be compensated by equipment in the later stage.
Moreover, the mage's abilities are the most extensive, including eavesdropping, teleporting, attacking, creating a protective shield, and so on.
"Loading completed! Please use your money." The system reminded.
Lin Muqiu instantly saw an orange-yellow light lingering around him, shining brightly with golden light.
This is the highest level orange manifestation.
Lin Muqiu only felt warm all over, and an invisible force lingered in her body. She concentrated her mind and energy, and used her mental power according to the method written in her book.
Then the light gradually dimmed and turned gray.
This is how she concealed her own aura.
The system interrupted her at the right moment, "Host, wait until you reach the other world and then you can slowly choose. Now all you have to do is spend your money quickly."
"Okay." Lin Muqiu replied, then opened the mall button provided by the system.
All she saw was [166589] written in the upper right corner of the mall. This was all her life savings.
Inside the mall, there was a wide variety of equipment in gray, white, green, blue, purple, red, and orange for her to choose from.
What a colorful world!
After much deliberation, she asked, "System, can I exchange my hundreds of thousands of dollars for things like broad bean paste, oyster sauce, dark soy sauce, aniseed, Sichuan peppercorns, and thirteen spices at market prices?"
The system thought it had misheard: "Host, the level 99 you just selected is magic, not cooking."
Lin Muqiu nodded and said seriously: "If I chose level 99 cooking, why would I bring these ingredients?"
system:"……"
It seems to make some sense.
If your cooking skills reach level 99, even a wild vegetable porridge will taste good, and with a wave of your golden hand, you can make things with built-in buff effects, such as [Refreshed], [Clear Negative Values], [Slowly Recover Health within an Hour], etc.
After a while, the system slowly replied, "According to the market price, Wei Ji Xian is 9.9 yuan per bottle (500 ml)..."
Before the system could finish, Lin Muqiu interrupted, "Stop! Where did you buy it?! Just go to Pinxixi. And don't buy small bottles, buy large barrels. And logically, the wholesale price should be cheaper, right?"
System: "Uh, okay."
Lin Muqiu continued to calculate, "Then let's convert all my daily necessities, such as toothbrush, toothpaste, backpack, etc., into cash as well."
System: "...Host, please don't push your luck."
Although the system's voice was a mechanical male voice, Lin Muqiu could still hear the gritting of teeth.
Lin Muqiu touched his nose and said, "Then I can just put all my personal belongings into the ring and take them away, right?"
System: “…Yes.”
Finally, Lin Muqiu finished cleaning up and looked at the countless small jars neatly arranged in the ring, with a satisfied smile on his face.
Hoarder ecstasy.
In the ring, there were more than 20,000 kilograms of soy sauce, more than 10,000 kilograms of oyster sauce, more than 10,000 kilograms of chili peppers, countless bottles of thirteen spices, onions, ginger, cooking wine, and a bunch of seeds, fish bait and other things.
Apart from these, she even bought a purple armor, and finally had five or six hundred yuan left, which she planned to exchange for copper coins.
System: This is a trap.
Lin Muqiu watched the light grow and fade, sometimes bright and sometimes dim, as if she was so angry that she was dizzy. She couldn't help but ask curiously, "May I ask why you are so determined to let me travel into the book, and even willing to make concessions for it?"
The system suddenly said indignantly: "Because people can die, but books cannot be postponed."
Lin Muqiu: “?”
Why are you so angry all of a sudden?
Seeing her puzzled expression, the system explained, "Your book isn't finished yet. It's clear your physical body can't sustain you enough to complete it, so the main system has decided to have you write the story yourself with your spirit."
"That is to say, once you enter, everything will actually happen, and that is indeed the real world. Everything is under your control."
After saying that, the system quietly reminded, "Host, our main system has been pursuing your book, so we made an exception and allowed you to enter the other world."
Lin Muqiu's heart trembled slightly.
What author doesn't want their novel to become a reality? Moreover, they can personally witness the details of the town, see the hustle and bustle of traffic, see those ordinary, vivid, flesh-and-blood people, and watch everything that the story will develop.
She loves her novels as much as she loves her own life.
"Okay, let's get going then." Lin Muqiu opened his thin lips slightly. "By the way, since your main system likes my novel so much, shouldn't you give me some gifts or something?"
system:"……"
Is the wool-pulling never going to end?
"Okay," the system gritted its teeth, "Then I'll give you a gift to accompany you through the journey."
*
When I woke up, I had already traveled through time.
My whole body aches as if it's falling apart.
Lin Muqiu opened her eyes. The scorching sun was still a little dazzling. She rubbed her eyes and could not quite see clearly that there was a group of people surrounding her. Most of them were wearing summer clothes unique to the magical world, and they were looking at her with concern.
Next to her, squatted a beautiful blond woman, sweating profusely as she fed her a life potion. Seeing her wake up, the woman finally sighed, "Which town are you from? Why don't you take precautions against the heat?"
"Where is this?" Lin Muqiu asked instead of answering, throwing the question back.
The woman sighed and said, "Ankang Town."
Lin Muqiu nodded, understanding it.
This is where she wrote her book and wanted to build a utopia.
But looking at this shabby street scene, it seems that we have traveled back to the beginning of the novel, and the plot has not progressed much for the time being.
Lin Muqiu thought about it and quietly looked at the person in front of him.
The woman had beautiful and lively eyes, natural peach blossom eyes, and a teardrop mole at the corner of her eye, which made her look gentle and charming.
Logically, the only person in the town who is so beautiful and can practice medicine is Medea the Pharmacist.
She is the only one who would disregard her own safety, volunteer to patrol the streets, and rescue others for free.
"Thank you. I will take good care of myself from now on." Lin Muqiu thanked him while opening his backpack and preparing to take out copper coins from his wallet.
"No need, it's just a piece of cake." Medea declined.
Lin Muqiu quickly said, "Life potions are very expensive. How can I let you bother and spend money?"
After that, she increased the speed of her groping.
Ostensibly it was for a reward, but in reality her main purpose was to secretly check whether the things given by the system had arrived.
She understands the principle of not showing off one's wealth.
When she felt a hard ring on her index finger, she finally felt relieved.
【Ring (bound)
Item Description: Equivalent to a space ring, used for storing things]
The information popped into her mind out of nowhere. She looked at the sauce piled up like a small mountain in the ring and breathed a sigh of relief.
but……
She frowned again.
Where is the gift the system gave her?
Just as she thought of this, she heard a soft voice calling in her ear: "Master."
Lin Muqiu: “?”
I have a bad feeling
She turned her stiff neck and looked to the side.
I saw a young man in white clothes, covered in blood. He pursed his lips and called out with a trembling voice, "Master."
The system page immediately popped up a prompt:
[Your loyal partner:? (Unnamed) (Already bound)
Level: lv0, cooking level 0, magic level 0...
Loyalty: 100
Note: This character can be used as a prop and can be placed in the ring.]
At that moment, the scene seemed to stand still.
Everyone present stared at them intently, and some even looked at them unfriendly, as if they were about to kick them out at any moment.
Lin Muqiu also remained silent at this moment.
It turns out that the gifts are not good!
How come all these people are level zero? !
