As Yu Zizhen expected, she met her death in a grand yet tragic way.
The extreme pain and thick darkness seemed to last for a long time, yet also seemed to only appear for a brief moment.
An unknown amount of time had passed before Yu Zizhen regained consciousness. She vaguely heard a clear, precise, and childish voice:
"Ding—The Spacetime Administration's 'Cannon Fodder Self-Rescue System' is at your service. Welcome to the world of 'The Legend of Princess Wuwei'."
Yu Zizhen: ...
Yu Zizhen looked confused. Wasn't she dead? What was going on now?
The system itself, calling itself the "Cannon Fodder Self-Rescue System," stated: "Your mission this time is..."
Task?
As soon as he heard the two familiar words, Yu Zizhen immediately stood up.
She knows this question!
She suddenly opened her eyes and was about to take out her cell phone to record the specific content of the task, but the unfamiliar environment that came into her sight made her slightly stunned.
She frowned slightly and quickly looked around the room she was in.
The interior furnishings are antique, with uncovered wooden beams, a warm kang covered with gorgeous brocade, and a large screen with a wooden base that is embroidered with exquisite and intricate floral and bird patterns and looks very valuable at first glance.
There are six large screens in total, which completely block Yu Zizhen's obscure view of the outside.
Yu Zizhen: ...So what exactly is this place?
System: "Host, do you want to accept the mission?"
Yu Zizhen, who hadn't heard the mission clearly, said:...
She rubbed her brows and said, "Wait a moment. Let me calm down."
system:......
Yu Zizhen took a deep breath and asked, "Did you just say that this place is some legendary book world?"
The system replied in a serious tone, "It's the world in the book 'The Legend of Princess Wuwei'."
Yu Zizhen: ...So, she's transmigrated into a book? Was she slapped in the face by the theological coffin lid?
She asked the baby-voiced system pretending to be an adult, "The Space-Time Administration... Never mind, I can probably guess what it's for. The cannon fodder self-rescue system... you?"
System: "008 is just one of the subsystems of the cannon fodder self-rescue system."
Quite rigorous.
Yu Zizhen shifted her small frame slightly with considerable effort. "So, the original owner of this body is the cannon fodder you chose who needs to save himself?"
System: "No, it was the original owner of this body who chose us."
Yu Zizhen: ???
System: "What we assigned to the host is the cannon fodder self-rescue mission she issued to the Spacetime Administration."
Yu Zizhen seemed to be thinking, "Then what criteria did you use to choose me? Why don't I have a choice?"
Others can post tasks, but she can only be forced to work. Humph, who is being excluded?
System: "Only those with strong obsessions will be opened by the Spacetime Administration for mission windows. Host, you are willing to die. You have no regrets in life, so naturally you won't have any obsessions after death."
Yu Zizhen: ...I understand. She lived a comfortable life and died peacefully, so those guys in the Space-Time Administration Bureau were jealous of her.
“Those guys from the Space-Time Administration”: ???
System: "As for the selection criteria, we mainly assess the candidate's ability and character. The host was chosen because of his strong strength and good character."
Yu Zizhen: ...She understood again. To put it bluntly, the other party just thought she was a high-quality worker who met their requirements.
Yu Zizhen's eyes flickered. She didn't mind working part-time, but completing missions was something she was very familiar with. But, how could a part-time job not earn some extra cash? How could a mission be completed without negotiating terms with the boss?
She closed her eyes slightly, "But I don't want to take the mission. There's no benefit in it."
system:......
The system froze for a moment. "If the host doesn't accept the mission, we will have to transfer the use of this body to someone else who is willing to do the mission, and the host will not be able to continue living."
Yu Zizhen lazily said, "You said it yourself, I don't really have any obsession with living. In my life, I've enjoyed happiness, taken risks, struggled, been lazy, succeeded, failed, loved, and been loved. I wouldn't say it's been brilliant, but it's definitely worth living."
system:......
The system is speechless and numb.
What did it do wrong?
It came to work in high spirits and high morale, but its new host held a memorial service for herself without saying a word.
She doesn't care about the chance to live, and she doesn't covet such a magical existence as the system. She just lazily said that she has no obsession with living.
Ah, what kind of strange species is this?
Is it because it has been on vacation for too long and can no longer keep up with the amazing brain circuits of this host?
The system racked its brains, trying to convince the host it had finally matched with, "Besides the chance to live again, this world offers a wealth of pure natural ingredients. Doesn't the host want to experience culinary freedom once again?"
Yu Zizhen hummed, "Food freedom, it's indeed a little tempting, but it's not enough."
system:......
The system racked its brains, "What about power, status, and wealth? As long as the host accepts the mission and completes it well, the host can possess power, status, and wealth far beyond that of ordinary people."
