Bai Yisha scanned him from head to toe several times, her mouth slightly agape in surprise, and exclaimed, "Ah? Your Majesty, have you been possessed?"
Why do I say that?
Bai Yisha scratched the back of her head sheepishly and chuckled, "This limited-time mission is much more generous than the previous ones. Don't you see the mission rewards? 100,000 merit points are one thing, but there's also good fortune and an SSS-level card. Doesn't that mean you'll level up quickly?"
【...】
The system paused for a few seconds, then continued in its distinctive mechanical voice: "Host, I used to be very generous, but please note that the greater the reward, the heavier and more difficult the task. Does the host have any tasks they'd like to accept?"
Bai Yisha stared at the screen for a long time, then changed to a cross-legged sitting position and said, "There are quite a few tasks. I have some questions. I'll ask them and then consider it."
[Excuse me, host. 】
What are cannibals?
【literal meaning. 】
"Eat people? Eat whom, me?" Bai Yisha pointed at herself in astonishment, then shouted after realizing what she meant, "This fourth mission isn't going to send me to a deserted island to cut off my own flesh to save the cannibal baby, is it?! Am I that noble?!"
【...】
[Host, please calm down.]
How could she possibly stay calm?!
Is this a normal task?! Huh?!
[Host, these cannibals, though outwardly called cannibals, don't actually eat people. It's just rumored that their past culture and tribes did engage in cannibalism, only doing so during certain rituals. Some humans, in order to study this tribe, have stolen cannibal babies to dissect them.]
Bai Yisha's face contorted in a grimace for a moment: "How could there be such a person?"
【The world is so big that nothing is impossible. 】
Bai Yisha asked again.
"These missions are all so time-sensitive. If I take them all, won't I run out of time? Who is this Mu Shijin again? Let me think... Oh, that handsome, cute dentist, he's going to kill someone? What does that mean? I'm on the island right now, how am I supposed to know when he's going to kill someone??"
[Host, don't panic. The time-limited missions were released in advance. Mission one starts from the date you accept the mission, and mission two starts next week. Mu Shijin is the person you are bound to; he currently has a motive to kill, and you need to stop him.]
Bai Yisha scratched her head and asked, "Who does he want to kill?"
Is this still Chinese?
Is the world starting to become magical?
[Xi Simin.]
Bai Yisha paused for a moment, her eyes darting around in confusion, before she exclaimed in surprise, "Ah?! Little Bai's adoptive father? This Mu Shijin knows Xi Simin?"
I don’t know.
"Then why kill him?"
I don’t know.
"When will he kill someone?"
I don’t know.
Bai Yisha: "......"
What a clueless person!
"Do you have precognitive abilities? Surely you know that?"
[No, host, I only know the information related to the time-limited missions.]
It turned out to be the case.
She stroked her chin and clicked her tongue in mockery, "No wonder you're a merit-based super-rich system, your merits are boundless, Master."
[The target of this mission, Mu Shijin, has been detected to be in Kyoto, and his murderous intent is very strong. He will make a move on one of the days next week. If the host accepts this mission, he must stop him within a week. As for when he will make his move, it is unknown.]
"what?"
Bai Yisha immediately looked troubled, clutching the hem of her clothes with both hands and pinching it a few times.
No wonder the rewards for this mission are so generous; the difficulty is truly...
If Bai Yisha said she wouldn't accept, she wouldn't want to give up such a generous reward, but if she did accept, wouldn't there be danger?
[Yes, it is. Host, you might as well guess why you have accumulated so much merit, and even received blessings as a reward.]
Bai Yisha was silent for two seconds, then sighed.
In other words, once she accepts Task Two, she'll have to follow Mu Shijin for a week.
[That's one way to put it, but if Mu Shijin kills someone a week later, even if the mission fails, the host will still have to persuade that person to lay down their weapon and become a Buddha.]
Bai Yisha: "......"
no????
After-sales service included?!?!
Let's just turn her into a demon.
Bai Yisha lowered her head, a gentle breeze brushed her face, and two strands of hair brushed against her cheek.
She reached up and tucked a strand of hair behind her ear, her brows furrowing slightly as she muttered, "What grudge does Xiaobai's father have against Mu Shijin? Even though that father is a scumbag, he doesn't deserve to die, does he? What if Xiaobai still has feelings for his father?"
No matter what, it's still a life.
If she accepts this mission, how will she stop Sismin from killing her?
Bai Yisha pondered for a long time, and the system did not disturb her, allowing her to think.
After a long pause, she asked again, "What about the timing of Mission Three? The flood? A flood occurred in the rocky area?? But this..."
Bai Yisha looked up at the bright sun.
Yes, in the coming month, the mountainous areas of the Rock District will experience extreme weather, with seven consecutive days of torrential rain causing rivers to swell and the entire Rock District to be engulfed in floods. If the host accepts this mission, they will need to become a volunteer and go to the disaster area to carry out rescue operations. This mission is based on the host's willingness to participate in rescue efforts; as long as the host helps people, the mission will be considered completed.
Upon hearing this, Bai Yisha gently bit her lower lip, her lips slightly pursed, as if she had been pricked by a tiny thorn.
At that moment, she unconsciously gripped the hem of her skirt, her knuckles turning slightly white.
She would go as a volunteer, even if there wasn't this mission.
When one place is in trouble, help will come from all sides. However, when natural disasters strike, it is inevitable that some people will be injured or even killed.
"Can't we intervene in advance?"
[No, it's useless. The torrential rain has lasted for seven days. The rocky area is near the mountains, and its geographical location is not good. Even if the host tells them in advance that there will be a flood, they will just think you are crazy. Besides, they will have warnings, and casualties are inevitable.]
"I see."
Bai Yisha fell into a long silence again.
The first task, establishing a pet hospital, was quite simple. She had originally had this idea, and her angel investment company also wanted to expand into some new businesses.
She only owns one company; she should establish several more.
She hadn't even brought it up when the system assigned her the task.
Task Two... She wanted to take it, no matter what the reason, it was a life at stake, and she didn't want Mu Shijin to go astray. Mu Shijin was so beautiful, only 23 years old, she shouldn't have such a dark life.
Not to mention that she unwittingly became involved with him.
She will definitely go to mission three. Even without this mission, she will definitely help if she can, doing her part.
As for mission four...
Although she felt a little uneasy, ten babies, being dissected—wasn't that just plain crazy?
I want to save them.
She hesitated for a long time before finally making up her mind and saying to the system, "I'll accept all four tasks."
