I still find it hard to accept that it's reliable.
Nobody understands just how big this blow really is for it!
No, it needs to slow down a bit more!
Seeing that Kaopu was still the same as before, and even lay back down without moving again, Xu Ling couldn't hide her surprise.
"Really? Does the car seat really hurt you that much?"
Before Xu Ling could finish speaking, Kao Pu instinctively sat up straight and growled at her, "You're still bringing it up!"
You knew all along, yet you still brought it up?!
Does she even know how awful it sounds?!
Don't you know how much it hates it?!
"Can't you change your appearance?"
She had only mentioned it casually, but unexpectedly, Kaopu flew into a rage. Xu Ling couldn't help but mutter to herself.
"Since you can transform from a cloud into a cat, if you really can't accept it now, just change your appearance again!"
She paused, then added, "Isn't this simple?"
Hehe, doesn't it want to?
Kaopu lay back down and glanced at Xu Ling with annoyance. She was really too naive!
It was too lazy to answer the question; it would rather lie there and calm itself down.
Seeing this, Xu Ling raised an eyebrow and asked, "What's wrong? Is it not allowed?"
No way, could it really be what she thinks, that reliability can't be changed?
If that's really the case, then being reliable is practically useless!
Even Sun Wukong can perform seventy-two transformations. She doesn't even ask for a reliable seventy-two transformations, nor does she ask for thirty-six transformations. She just asks for one more transformation. She can't even do that?
"You're not really impotent, are you?"
Xu Ling stroked her chin, her tone filled with blatant skepticism.
Xu Ling thought that since she had made her contempt so obvious, Kaopu would rise up and refute her without even thinking.
However, the reliable one still turned into a mess, and even admitted it weakly.
"Host, you guessed right this time, I really can't change anymore."
"Why?"
Xu Ling expressed her incomprehension: if Kaopu could transform from a white cloud into a cat before, why couldn't it transform from a cat into something else?
Kaopu didn't answer. It glanced at Xu Ling out of the corner of its eye, then closed its eyes.
To be honest, it was actually a little guilty.
Actually, there are two reasons why it was able to change its appearance.
The first reason is that the system has one chance to change its appearance each time it binds to a new host.
After all, catering to the host's preferences can quickly shorten the distance between the host and the system, increase goodwill, and facilitate the completion of subsequent tasks.
Moreover, this opportunity remains valid as long as the host is not changed.
However, if the system binds to a new host again, the previous opportunity to change its appearance will be wasted.
The reason why Kaopu has always used the image of Baiyun is that its previous host liked it, and Kaopu itself also liked it very much. In addition, Xu Ling did not object when she saw it like this, so Kaopu has continued to use it until now.
The second reason, besides this one, is also where the reliable person feels guilty.
Changing the system's appearance requires integration.
Generally, these points are funded by the system itself.
Of course, there are ordinary ones and extraordinary ones.
It's unusual, like being reliable.
The reliable one failed the previous task and was severely punished, so it didn't get any points at all.
Where do the points for reliably changing the appearance come from?
This is the part that Xu Ling must not know.
Xu Ling has only just started doing tasks, so relying on her to complete tasks to earn points is very unreliable.
So, in order to get more points, Kaopu came up with a plan.
While Xu Ling was still confused about everything when she first arrived, it quietly changed the points allocation.
If the relationship between Reliable and the host used to be 40/60, with Reliable at 40% and the host at 60%, now Reliable has secretly changed it to 30/70. Well, of course, Reliable is 70% and Xu Ling is 30%.
Therefore, Xu Ling earns one point for each wheat harvest, while Kao Pu earns approximately two points, or perhaps a little more.
So, when Xu Ling wanted to quit and go out for some fresh air, Kaopu would soften and agree to her request, partly because Xu Ling had indeed worked there for a long time, and partly because of this.
Of course, the money spent was Xu Ling's points, so she didn't care much about whether it was reliable or not.
This explains why reliable people are now afraid to speak out.
It was afraid that if it got carried away with its words, it would accidentally let something slip.
Besides, since we can't change the appearance anyway, saying this is just venting and there's no need to do it.
Seeing that Kaopu was ignoring her with his eyes closed, adopting a non-violent non-cooperative attitude, Xu Ling couldn't help but squat down, reach out her hands, pick up Kaopu, and suspend him in mid-air.
"Host, what do you want to do?"
The reliable person was caught off guard by this scene and was quite panicked.
It twisted its body, trying to get off Xu Ling's hand, but it was all in vain.
It's unclear where Xu Ling learned her cat-holding technique, but she firmly gripped the cat's forelegs under its armpits, and as the cat twisted and turned, Xu Ling swayed back and forth with it.
"Tell me quickly, tell me why it can't be changed!"
Not only could Kaopu not break free from Xu Ling's hands, but after several attempts, it even felt dizzy and lightheaded.
I don't know if it's because it turned into a cat, but it feels so different from when it was a white cloud.
"Don't shake me, don't shake me, host!"
Unfortunately, Xu Ling was ruthless and completely ignored Kaopu's other nonsense, continuing with what she was doing.
"Speak quickly!"
After a few more rounds, Kaopu couldn't take it anymore and quickly begged for mercy.
"I'll talk, I'll talk, host, please stop!"
"Really?"
Xu Ling asked without stopping her movements.
The reliable guy was on the verge of tears: "I'm telling you, host, can you help me let go? I'm not lying to you!"
Xu Ling stopped what she was doing and observed Kaopu's expression with some suspicion.
Seeing that it truly couldn't bear it any longer, Xu Ling finally put it down.
"Now that I've put you down, you can tell me."
Reliable landed on all fours and shook his head, which made him feel dizzy. However, this action only made the dizziness worse.
Then, without even realizing it, Kaopu first turned around and licked the fur on its back, and then licked its two front paws.
In Xu Ling's eyes, all of this was exactly the same as a cat grooming itself.
Although Xu Ling saw through the reliable behavior, she didn't say a word.
She feared that if Kaopu found out she had only recently become a cat, her behavior would become increasingly cat-like and drive her mad.
So, Xu Ling silently watched as Kaopu licked his front paws and then his hind legs.
Hmm, the act of licking Reliable's hind legs was a bit cringe-worthy, but Xu Ling casually looked away.
Once the reliable licker had finished licking every part it could reach, it froze, then came to its senses.
What did it just do?!
