"Bang——"
"hiss!"
Song Huan hit his head on the bedpost and couldn't help but gasp.
"Young lady, please bear with it." A woman's impatient voice came from my ears. "The Marquis has not returned to his room yet, so you can't move the veil on your head."
Song Huan didn't say anything, his head was a little confused. He raised his hand and gently rubbed his forehead, and a layer of tears appeared in his clear eyes.
The woman looked at him with disdain and could not help but mutter, "This is something that is not presentable..."
Song Huan: “……?”
She slowly recovered, lowering her eyes to gaze at the red that blocked her view. She must have been wearing a red veil on her head. It seemed she had traveled into the book "My Husband Has All the Power in the World".
The candlelight illuminated the figure of the woman who had just spoken rudely. The shadow happened to fall into Song Huan's sight, and a red health warning popped up on the shadow.
This is the system that brought Song Huan to the world of the book and gave her the only golden finger. When someone around her has less than twelve hours to live, she can see a red frame above her head.
But that's all, it's fucking useless.
Song Huan silently complained. Thinking of her original body, and the few lines it had in the original book, she couldn't help but feel a headache.
The first mention of the original body in the book occurs when the protagonist sends someone to investigate the villain, Pei Yan. The protagonist's subordinates report back their findings: Pei Yan once had a wife, the eldest daughter of a seventh-rank official, whose maiden name was Song Huan. However, she died suddenly on the night of her marriage to Pei Yan, and the true cause of death remains undetermined. Furthermore, a month after Song Huan's death, Pei Yan's men exterminate the Song family.
Another time was when the villain Pei Yan was defending himself to the heroine in the book and mentioned the cause of death of the original body. Pei Yan said that the original body was poisoned before marrying him, and died of vomiting blood on the wedding night, and it had nothing to do with him.
Apart from this, there is no mention of the original body in the book.
Simply put, the character the system assigned to Song Huan was nothing more than a stranger among strangers, a background behind a background. She couldn't even feel the sense of superiority that comes from having read the full article.
The reason Song Huan could still remember the pitiful scenes describing her original self in the book was because she shared the same name as the character "Song Huan" in the book. When she first read these two passages in the book, she always felt a slight chill on the back of her neck...
Later, a few days after she finished reading the book, she died without a complete body.
They can't even be reincarnated and can only be sent to live in the world of novels.
However, no one knows what went wrong with this broken system. Song Huan was supposed to travel back in time to the time when his original body died of poisoning and came back to life in his place.
But as soon as she closed her eyes in the blinding white light, her head banged against the bedpost, and when she opened her eyes again it was now.
Candlelight flickered in the room. A table not far away was filled with exquisite pastries. A weighing scale with a veil was neatly placed on the high table next to the bed. Next to the scale was a pot of wine and a pair of white jade wine glasses.
Song Huan touched the corner of his mouth and found it was clean.
The original body had clearly not yet been poisoned. Did she come too early?
"system?"
“…”
"administrator?"
“…”
"Did you guys get the time wrong? Or are there any additional tasks I can do to earn health points?"
Before Song Huan came here, her administrator showed her the system instructions, a bunch of novel world survival rules, and a time travel and rebirth manual. Because her original body was a character who was supposed to die, Song Huan had to complete daily tasks to stay alive.
However, according to the administrator, the system should appropriately advance some of her health points based on the differences in the worlds in each book.
Song Huan checked the health value from the system and found that it was still gray and there was no income or expenditure record.
She sent a bunch of messages in the dialog box, but the system didn't respond.
Song Huan began to feel uneasy, thinking that it would be useless to read any instructions or regulations.
I can’t stand the system being offline!
"Broken system!" Song Huan cursed in a low voice.
As soon as she finished speaking, she heard a series of "beep beep" warning sounds in her ears, and a redder flashing frame appeared on the red veil, with white font on the frame reading - Friendly reminder: Dear Song Huan, you only have half an hour of life left.
Song Huan was startled and immediately started cursing, "Fuck!"
This broken system has pitfalls!
As her voice rang out, the doors and windows of the house suddenly made shattering sounds at the same time. The man in black broke in through the window and killed Song Huan's dowry woman and maid in the blink of an eye.
Song Huan suddenly lifted the veil and watched as the maidservant was stabbed in the throat by a sword and fell to the ground with a thud.
At the same time, a cold sword pressed against Song Huan's slender neck...
Everything happened so fast. Song Huan instinctively dared not say a word, staring at the man in black who was holding her fate by the throat without blinking.
The woman had a pair of bright eyes, as clear as water, and just by looking at people like this, it seemed that she was filled with affection.
The black-clad man's sword paused imperceptibly.
It was this brief moment that gave Song Huan a chance to survive. With a whoosh, a short blade flew from the air, slashing across the black-clad man's neck at an extremely fast speed. Then, with a dull thud, it sank into the bedpost.
Blood gurgled from the black-clothed man's throat. He slowly and stiffly turned his head towards the direction of the flying short blade, his eyes full of disbelief.
The man in the bright red wedding gown was tall and slender, appearing out of thin air like a god.
Is this Pei Yan?
His aura is almost two meters and eighty!
Song Huan's eyes suddenly brightened, and his favorability towards Pei Yan increased sharply.
But before Song Huan could fully express his joy, he was suddenly yanked away, and a sword was once again placed against his throat.
Song Huan: ...speechless and choked. ...I want to cry.
"What kind of diabolical plot is this? Didn't the original body die of poison and vomiting blood? It looks more like someone slashed Fate's throat with a sword, causing him to bleed to death."
She sent the message to the system, using gentle words, trying not to mix in any personal anger or hostility.
However, the broken system still went offline and went on strike.
"Marquis Pei, hand over the Pei family army's military token, and I may spare this young lady's life."
The man in black behind him spoke in a determined tone, which made Song Huan's scalp tingle.
Pei Family Army's military talisman? Haha.
In this book, even when Pei Yan fell deeply in love with the heroine, someone threatened Pei Yan with the heroine's life, but all he got in return was a fake military token.
This man in black thinks too highly of her.
The cold wind blew into the house, and Song Huan's hands and feet suddenly felt cold.
The moonlight illuminated half of Pei Yan's jade-carved face. He smiled gently and stepped into the darkness. His voice was as sweet as a mountain spring. He opened his mouth and said, "You are dreaming. Kill this woman if you want."
"..." Song Huan had expected this answer. He looked at Pei Yan with a numb look, then began to type in the system frantically.
"What the hell? System, come out!"
"Only giving me half an hour's worth of life in advance is too much!"
"Mom, are you really trying to kill me?"
"Cry me a lot! I'll never scold you again! Please come out and give me a mission!"
“Wuwuwu…”
“…”
The broken system is as quiet as a chicken.
"Kill." Pei Yan waved his hand, and the secret guards hiding in the shadows rushed out.
The black-clothed man's eyes changed, knowing that they could not escape from Pei's residence tonight. With the mentality of killing one to get back his investment and killing two to make a profit, he immediately killed the woman in front of him with a sword without any hesitation!
"Hmm..." The plot develops so fast like a tornado!
Song Huan covered his throat tightly with both hands, and bright blood flowed out from between his fingers frantically.
Your sister.
Song Huan didn't know who to scold. Everything went dark before his eyes, and all his five senses were gone. His soul floated out of "Song Huan's" body, swaying back and forth.
Pei Yan came to Song Huan's side at some point, and the moment she fell to the ground, he stabbed the man in black who had just held her hostage in the chest with a sword.
When Song Huan regained her five senses, everything around her was white again, but this time she did not see the administrator who was in charge of her before. There was only a line of eye-catching bold black words in front of her: Welcome to the system space transfer station.
Song Huan: “…”
System: "Dear, your resurrection mission has failed. You have three resurrection attempts remaining, and one is about to be used up. Do you want to continue conquering the villain Pei Yan, or choose to rebirth and complete the missions in the other two books?"
Song Huan sneered, "Haha, why should you use up one of my rebirths?"
System: "Dear, the reply is wrong. Please reply again."
Song Huan: "...Are you a human or a machine? I need human customer service."
System: "Dear, the format of your voice reply is incorrect. Please reply again."
System: "Dear, if you forgot the reply format, you can also pop up an option box here."
System: "Do you need a pop-up option box? If yes, please reply "1", if not, please reply "0."
Song Huan: "Get lost!"
System: "Dear, the format of your reply is incorrect."
Song Huan: "I want to see the administrator!"
System: "Dear, the format of your reply is incorrect."
Song Huan: ...Fuck.
It seems that the administrator responsible for her will never show up again.
She felt she needed to change her strategy, "0."
System: "Dear, you chose not to. So we need to go back to the first question. Do you want to resend it?"
"My dear, you don't need that." Song Huan's tone changed and her voice became very sweet. She didn't believe that there was no manual customer service supervision on the other side of the system!
However, the system remained calm: "Okay, dear. Please reply within one minute, otherwise the system will default to sending you to the second world."
After this line of words appeared, a red digital countdown popped up in front of Song Huan.
“…”
"Alright! You're awesome! I'll continue my pursuit of Pei Yan!"
Song Huan almost roared, a thin layer of red appeared on his fair cheeks because of anger.
She only has three chances to be reborn, and correspondingly, she has three small worlds to choose from. Of course, she can also choose to go to the same world all three times. However, if all three chances are used up and her mission is not completed, she will disappear from the world completely.
In addition to conquering the villain Pei Yan in "My Husband is Powerful", the other two small worlds are the Dinosaur World Escape and the Zombie World Escape.
Compared to being trampled to death and eaten by a dinosaur, or being bitten to death and eaten by a zombie, Song Huan of course chose to deal with humans!
Besides, this book was a text she had read before her death. Although she did not even make a cameo appearance in the book, she had the full text in her mind and the overall picture in her heart!
It’s true!
But now Song Huan seriously suspected that the system had malicious intentions towards her and wanted to kill her.
"I want to complain. This time it was your system's fault that caused me to return to my original form before the poison took effect. I wasted an opportunity in vain."
Song Huan crossed his legs and floated in the air. "I don't think this is right. Your system is supposed to convert homeless souls like us, but the way you're operating it is likely to fail and instead increase our resentment."
System: "Please wait, the system is performing a self-check."
Red countdown paused.
Three seconds left.
System: "The system has checked and found no issues. The time of your rebirth is correct."
Song jubilantly flung himself away, "Impossible!"
System: "Please check your personal rebirth manual, which contains detailed instructions on your rebirth time."
This time, the system didn't even seem to care. It seemed to think Song Huan was being unreasonable and its attitude was very cold.
Song Huan had no time to care about it. He hurriedly took out the rebirth manual stuffed in his backpack and read it. Then he saw a line of small print in the lower right corner of the manual: According to system regulations, an error of one hour before and after the host's rebirth time is considered normal.
"..." Song Huan was speechless. When he looked up again, his soul suddenly felt weightless.
The author has something to say:
Jinjin: A new book has been published. Leave a review with 2 points in the first three days to receive a red envelope!
