Just as Qiao He was about to get up and run away, her arm was suddenly grabbed by the lewd man.
Qiao He felt a wave of nausea and said coldly, "Let me go!"
But the next second, Bo Shiwu's voice suddenly rang in Qiao He's ears. He frowned and lowered his voice, "Miss Qiao? What's wrong?"
"Don't make any more noise, or we'll be discovered." Bo Shiwu frowned slightly.
Qiao He was a little dazed. When she realized that the person in front of her was not that lewd man but Bo Shiwu, she was almost instantly pulled back to reality.
She seems to be hallucinating again.
It was definitely a hallucination. Qiao He didn't even realize why she was having such a hallucination. Just now, in the hallucination, everything felt very real.
I didn't feel it was fake at all!
A chill ran down Qiao He's spine; this must be Qiao Bu's special ability.
Why would Qiao Bu use such a supernatural ability on her?!
Qiao He couldn't understand why Qiao Bu would do this!
Bo Shiwu said in a deep voice, "Miss Qiao, are you alright?"
"Was I just hallucinating again?"
Qiao He frowned and nodded slightly in response, "Yes, it's strange. I don't know how I got pulled into the hallucination."
Upon hearing Qiao He's words, Bo Shiwu's expression darkened: "Miss Qiao, I suspect that person's ability is indiscriminate attack. As long as you are within the range of his ability, you will be pulled into an illusion."
“The closer you get, the more deeply you are affected by the illusions.” Bo Shiwu lowered his voice, his broad palms still tightly gripping Qiao He’s arm.
Qiao He paused slightly, because she hadn't met Job yet, so she didn't know what Job's special abilities were like.
Only after meeting Qiao Bu will Qiao He's ability information page display a detailed description of Qiao Bu's abilities.
Upon learning this, Qiao He felt that everything seemed to make sense.
Because Qiao Bu didn't know they had come to Sunset Village to find him, he used his powers on them.
He was forced to activate his superpower by the village guards!
Qiao He felt angry just thinking about that despicable village guard.
"System, come out, come out!" Qiao He hurriedly called out to the system.
The "Playing it Off" system said slowly, "[What is it?]"
Please help me find out about the village guardian's special abilities.
Qiao He browsed through the system shop and found the item that unlocks information about strangers' supernatural abilities.
However, this item requires 999 emotion points.
Qiao He had previously purchased guns, ammunition, and other random gift packs, so she currently had virtually no emotional points.
The "Playing it Off" system knew Qiao He had no emotional value, so it said with a straight face: "[Sorry, dear host, I can't offer credit here.]"
Qiao He raised an eyebrow slightly: [Hmm? Are you serious? System, you've changed... you're not the System I know anymore.]
system:【………】
Host, that's enough.
[We do not support credit purchases. I'm saying it again.]
The "Playing it Off" system claims to be impartial and will never soften its stance or give away items from the system store ahead of time just because the host makes a request.
Qiao He's dark, round eyes darted around slightly, and she said with a grin, "How about this, Boss? We can not buy on credit, but you can give me a loan!"
The "Slacking Off System": [? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ]
"Right? You could develop another loan system and lend me a certain amount of emotional points. That way, when I repay you again, I can give you the interest and emotional points as well, and you'll get even more!" Qiao He blinked her big eyes and said sincerely.
But the system always felt that Qiao He was trying to trick it.
Qiao He was certain that Tongzi was playing a trick on him. If Tongzi could actually develop this loan system, Qiao He would make a fortune!
Anyway, Qiao He has done quite a few freebies.
Just keep owing it, the longer you owe, the better it feels!
The "Playing it Off" system remained silent for a moment, then heard Qiao He excitedly say, "[System, think about it, this is all beneficial to you! You'll get even more emotional points, right?! All the interest on those extra emotional points is yours, and you can even compound it! Let me get you even more emotional points!]"
Qiao He's little mouth chattered away, even tempting the dormant system.
After careful consideration and studying the loan rules in the human world, it instantly felt that this method was feasible.
Since the host currently has no emotional points, if it could really provide Qiao He with an emotional point loan machine, then the system would be able to obtain even more emotional points in the future.
As she thought about it, Tongzi began to feel incredibly excited.
It was already ready to agree to Qiao He's request, but then it suddenly remembered Qiao He's personality.
The "retreat system" fell into deep thought...
Qiao He asked, "What's wrong, Tongzi? What are you hesitating for? This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity! Come on, come on!"
[Develop this! I really need this kind of loan machine right now! It's a win-win situation for everyone!]
[Don't just think about it, take action, Tongzi! Hurry, I need to save my kitten!]
Qiao He kept urging the "Playing it Off" system, but three seconds later, the system replied: "You city folks are really cunning."
[You almost tricked me, host! I know you want to get something for nothing! You can't keep exploiting my system like this!]
The "Lame System" seemed to have developed genuine human emotions for the first time. It felt like a pitiful, helpless, and weak little system that had almost been deceived by Qiao He, that big bad wolf.
Fortunately, the system stopped the damage in time and immediately understood the hidden meanings behind Qiao He's words.
The system believes that Qiao He wasn't completely tricked by Qiao He. Otherwise, if she had actually activated the loan machine, she would likely have borrowed a lot of emotional points and then bought everything in the system's shop in one go...
Although the items in the store will be refreshed, once Qiao He buys something, it can last her most of her life.
Not to mention that the store also has some rare ability awakening cards and ability upgrade cards.
The "Slacking Off System" cried out in anguish: "Host, don't try to trick me! I won't listen! I won't listen!"
Qiao He: [...]
That's it, we're doomed.
If you can't outsmart the system, what should you do?
Where could she find emotional points right now? She couldn't just take the kitten and Bo Shiwu and charge out to confront the village guard head-on.
Without knowing the village guardian's special abilities, going out now could very well result in their complete annihilation.
Qiao He absolutely would not allow herself to face this situation.
So she desperately needs emotional support right now...
However, at that very moment, Qiao He heard the cold, mechanical voice of the "Playing it Off" system: [Congratulations, host, for obtaining 999 points of resentment from Qiao Yuan!]
Qiao He: ? ? ? !
