"I... hiccup~ I can still drink..."
Beidou's face was flushed. He put his arm around Ningguang's shoulder, but his other hand reached for the wine jar on the table.
"You..." Ningguang was also a little drunk, and said to Beidou in a coquettish tone.
"Wait a minute, let's go back to Qunyu Pavilion, I'll let you drink your fill..."
“Nonsense…” Beidou waved his hand, “Back to Qunyu Pavilion… what I want to drink is… yours… hehe…”
"Alright, alright..." Ningguang's face was full of doting affection, "I'll let you have it when we get back..."
"You're so kind...hehehe..."
………………
"Brother...I want more..."
Xiangling clung tightly to Jiang Mu's left thigh and refused to let go.
"I also……"
His other thigh was tightly hugged by Hu Tao, and the little guy's drool got all over his pants...
"Sister Gan Yu..." Helpless, Jiang Mu had no choice but to ask Gan Yu for help.
"Hehehe...this is delicious too..."
At this moment, Gan Yu also collapsed onto the table, muttering strange words...
"What terrible things have I done?!"
Jiang Mu looked up at the sky and sighed...
Rewind to a few minutes ago...
"Oh, by the way, I have a new dessert here. Would you like to try it?"
At the dinner table, Jiang Mu suddenly addressed the group.
"OK!"
Xiangling immediately nodded.
"OK."
Jiang Mu nodded and went back to the kitchen to bring out a large bowl.
Upon opening the lid, a rich aroma of wine wafts out...
Everyone looked closely and saw tiny, pea-sized round dumplings lying quietly among the grains of rice.
"What's this?"
Gan Yu asked with some curiosity.
"Sweet fermented rice balls".
"You have wine?"
Upon hearing this, Beidou perked up.
"Let me try it!"
"I want one too!"
After Jiang Mu ladled a bowl for each person, he didn't have much left for himself...
Then……
And that's how it turned out...
Jiang Mu kicked away a little girl who was yelling "I want more!" and was quite puzzled.
He clearly tasted it, and the wine wasn't very strong, so why...?
"System, what is the fermented rice you gave me made of?"
Jiang Mu sensed something was amiss, so he directly inquired with the system.
"The system is currently undergoing upgrades and we are unable to answer your questions."
The system is cold and impersonal.
"have to."
Jiang Mu understood; this was yet another trick the system had pulled...
"What are you trying to achieve...?"
Jiang Mu was at his wit's end; the system had just been acting up unexpectedly, bringing him a host of surprises...
However, this time it was definitely a shock...
"System, could this be the surprise you were planning to give me...?"
Jiang Mu couldn't help but ask.
"The system is currently undergoing upgrades and we are unable to answer your questions."
The answer was exactly the same.
Well, seeing that this guy was going to play dumb, Jiang Mu simply stopped asking.
Looking at the figures lying haphazardly in the living room, as if they had been engaged in a group activity, Jiang Mu was at a loss.
What should we do?
In the end, he had to drag them one by one to their respective rooms.
Of course, Ningguang and Beidou are in the same room...
………………
"call……"
After finishing his work, Jiang Mu went outside to get some fresh air.
"Finally finished..."
Inside, Jiang Mu had already turned on the air circulation system to remove the smells of the food. To be honest, Jiang Mu quite liked the feeling of eating at a large table, but he really hated the cleanup afterwards. It was like the saying goes, "A feast is enjoyable for a moment, but a funeral is a nightmare afterward..."
Fortunately, the current system has everything in good order.
That's right, it's the system. Just now, while Jiang Mu was "picking up the corpse," the system suddenly sent a message saying that the update was complete.
Upon opening the system, Jiang Mu looked at the familiar yet somewhat changed interface.
"system."
"I am here."
The same deep, mechanical voice still rang out.
Jiang Mu's heart sank.
That little guy...
"Explain what's going on?"
"The system will provide you with an answer shortly."
"Alright, tell me about the updated system."
After a "yes" was given, the system's deep, mechanical voice began to speak.
"With this update, the system has been upgraded to version 2.0."
"Version 2.0 doesn't offer any major improvements over version 1.0; the only new feature is the addition of a wishing function."
"A prayer?"
Jiang Mu was slightly taken aback. "Is it a card-drawing function?"
"That's right."
As if marveling at its host's quick thinking, the system continued.
"This card pool will randomly provide you with various living and production tools, as well as weapons of war. You may also recruit skilled craftsmen to provide assistance in your daily life and other areas."
"A skilled craftsman?"
Jiang Mu asked doubtfully.
"Can it summon anything?"
Theoretically speaking, yes.
"Including characters from the Genshin Impact world?"
Jiang Mu asked curiously.
"………………"
After a moment of silence, the system spoke.
"I'm sorry, I can't..."
"call--"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Mu secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Just kidding. If we could summon all the characters from this world, wouldn't the world be in chaos?
For example, two walnuts went out on the street at the same time to sell coffins...
For example, what if two orchestra leaders were vying for power in public?
For example, two Wendy's slacking off together?
………………
"Then let me ask you."
Jiang Mu asked helplessly, "What kind of characters can we possibly draw?"
"Including but not limited to Pokémon, ship girls, constructs, shikigami, and Valkyries."
"That's not bad."
Jiang Mu murmured, but then immediately realized the biggest problem.
"System, what items are needed for drawing cards? Primogems?"
"Reporting to the host, you already possess the necessary item for the gacha pull: diamonds."
"diamond?"
Jiang Mu thought of the shiny stones in his backpack.
How much per draw?
"Very cheap, 280 diamonds per draw, fair and square."
"You..."
Jiang Mu suddenly remembered a knife-themed mobile game he played in his previous life... Honkai Impact 3rd...
“I roughly understand that,” Jiang Mu said. “So, what other new features do you have now?”
"Unfortunately, no."
"So you've updated something for nothing!"
"Reporting to the host, this system is an artificial intelligence... no, an artificial intelligence, and it will not be lonely."
"You just said you were mentally challenged, didn't you? You definitely said you were mentally challenged!"
"Host, you misheard..."
After a long pause, the system finally managed to utter this sentence...
"By the way, host, would you like to begin your prayer now?"
"Hmm... let's not do it for now."
Jiang Mu ignored the system's attempt to force a change of topic, pondered for a moment, and then said.
"Does your prayer have a safety net?"
Jiang Mu thought for a moment, then continued to ask.
"Yes." The system replied quickly, "A character is guaranteed within 90 draws."
That's it?
Seemingly sensing Jiang Mu's impatience, the system quickly added.
"Since this is your first system update, you are being given a pet egg that can hatch into a random pet. Use it?"
"Is this for real?"
Jiang Mu immediately perked up.
Use it immediately.
"Ding! You have used one 'pet egg gifted by the system'. Congratulations on obtaining... "
