The system detected the man's sarcastic tone, but it didn't know who the man was mocking, so it could only mechanically reply:
[This was originally the female supporting character's storyline in the original book. Now the plot has gone wrong; the female supporting character didn't follow the original male lead's storyline, but instead went to a different point, and to a point that didn't appear in this story...]
As it spoke, it realized that its current host didn't seem to be listening at all.
The system had no choice but to settle for second best, saying what its host was interested in:
[Host, you are that space pirate in the book. In the future, not only in the future, but even now in the chaotic interstellar space, you will have many, many underlings.]
[Also, the female supporting character's final destination is you, the host. Don't you think the female supporting character, Tao Yao, is very beautiful?]
After hearing this, the man smiled again: "No matter how beautiful she is, I have no interest in being a mistress. I'd rather be a mistress through despicable means. There are plenty of women in this world."
The system remained silent for a while.
Men who refuse to eat or drink are really hard to deal with!
Seeing the man stride away, the system had no choice but to use its trump card:
[Host, you know. You died on the blue planet called Earth. Your life is a temporary gift from us. If things don't go according to plan, we'll take your body back, and you'll die from electrocution. We'll then find a new host to help this world follow the correct plot.]
The man simply said "Oh," without any concern. "Then you can take it back. I have no interest in this body that you, the system, control."
The system fell silent again.
[Host, this world values strength above all else. You possess the dual S-rank replication ability, allowing you to live for over a hundred years. With proper care, living for over two hundred years wouldn't be a problem. With your abilities and my assistance, you can stand at the very top of the entire alliance. Are you really not going to reconsider?]
The man stepped onto the bus in one stride.
He found a seat by the window and said, "If you're thinking about working for you and living in a world controlled by the plot, I'm not interested even if I live to be 1000. So if you want to take it back, you should do it sooner rather than later."
The system felt that this host was completely uncommunicative, so it had no choice but to keep quiet for the time being.
The man leaned back in his chair, watching the flying car race along the city's tracks. He turned on his personal computer and pulled up Shu Yan's information on the StarNet.
In fact, this wasn't the first time he had engaged in such a dialogue with the system.
The system has been threatening to electrocute him until he dies if he doesn't follow the storyline, but so far it hasn't actually electrocuted him.
Therefore, he felt that the so-called "system" needed not only the right time, place, and people to find its next host, but also a large amount of energy.
In other words...
This "system" has probably already consumed a lot of energy by parasitizing him, and it will not be able to break away from him and find another host for a short period of time.
He stared blankly for a moment at the section on mental strength listed in Shu Yan's ability section on the StarNet.
It's unclear whether Shu Yan's S-type mental power can perceive what this system in his brain actually is, and how to make Shu Yan perceive it is also a problem.
As for the so-called metaphysics, this system is supposed to be a divine intervention to set things right, and men don't believe in any of that.
Please, we're in interstellar space now; space travel between universes has already been achieved.
Even though he had complete memories of his "previous life" living on Earth, he didn't believe that he had actually transmigrated into interstellar space.
Soul travel is impossible to believe. Believing that memories have been forcibly implanted into one's brain is more believable than any interstellar soul travel.
While the man was still talking to the paparazzi on the tarmac, Shu Yan, who was on the aircraft, also sent a video to his bodyguard, Xia.
At the same time, leave a message: Go check the superpowers of the people in the video and see if any of them are psychic. If not, send me a copy of the information of everyone in this video, including their birth dates.
He had just sensed a fluctuation of mental energy among this group of people, and that mental energy carried a suppressive hostility.
As a psychic, Shu Yan is always particularly sensitive to potential dangers.
Adhering to the principle of "better to make more enemies than to miss any", it's always a good idea to conduct a thorough investigation first.
Xia glanced at it, then directed his aircraft to turn around. Only after the aircraft returned did he open the video to examine it closely.
"I'm just a bodyguard, not a private investigator. I'm not supposed to be investigating potential rivals for my boss every day..." Xia glanced at the characters in the short film Shu Yan had taken, and breathed a sigh of relief, thinking about how her boss paid her enough to kill, set fires, and bury the bodies for him.
Okay, it's not that he wanted to do it, it's just that the boss was paying too much.
Xia took screenshots of everyone in the video and distributed them to the crew on the aircraft: "We've got a job, brothers. Get rid of that lazy attitude you were just doing in the training hall, following the boss around and picking up experience. This job is paid for differently now."

Tao Yao knew nothing about what was happening outside.
She was starving, and after being led into a private room by the staff, she ordered a bunch of things from the menu on the computer screen in the room.
Hu Tiantian, dressed in a silk camisole that resembled a nightgown, waved the sleeve of her coat draped over her shoulder and said, "Where did this starving beauty come from? Come and let Master Hu tease you. Master Hu will give you candy."
Tao Yao grabbed Hu Tiantian's sleeve, her features contorted in a frenzy: "Young Master, I am the Bai from the foot of Qingcheng Mountain who has waited for you for a thousand years..."
These ancient myths from Earth are from a very distant era.
Tao Yao had only briefly watched some IA animations on the StarNet and couldn't remember the name of the beauty who lived at the foot of Mount Qingcheng.
She pursed her lips, unable to continue the act any longer. She casually let go of her sleeve and began to take off her clothes. "I've been fighting evolved beasts for three hours straight. I'm so tired. I need to take a bath."
The private room is not just a private room, but also has a hot spring with a bottom lined with fluorite.
According to research by scientists in the alliance, bathing in fluorite can smooth, whiten, and refine the skin, with long-term effects comparable to gene injections.
Therefore, bathing and washing one's face with fluorite became a popular activity among the young women and women of the Alliance. Tao Yao even had a huge bathtub made from a single piece of fluorite in her home.
"Why don't you eat something before soaking?" Xie Langhuan pulled her silk robe over and moved over, sitting on the large rock above the hot spring, listening to the gurgling water. "Don't let yourself get low blood sugar later. If you feel even slightly unwell, your family members will probably never agree to me inviting you here again."
Tao Yao didn't care. In just a few minutes, she took off her clothes and was left only in her underwear. She wasn't pretentious at all.
He took a few steps into the water and sat on a stone stool in the spring, with his shoulders and above exposed. "It's okay, I'll eat and soak at the same time. I can take a short nap later."
Hu Tiantian fiddled with the information sent to her personal terminal. Her family controlled the largest video network in the alliance, so she knew more gossip than anyone else, and she knew it faster too: "Did the parasite race just appear in your combat arena?"
