Chapter 121 Choosing Another Host
"So it was you who sent me back to the past?" Ye Pianran looked at 666 in utter shock. At this moment, 666 was no bigger than the palm of her hand. She could probably knock it down with one swipe. What kind of extraordinary abilities did it have to do something so astonishing?
"Not bad~" 666's dark eyes couldn't hide his pride.
"But when did you enter my body? I don't remember that I didn't experience any abnormalities in my previous life," Ye Pianran asked, frowning.
666 flapped its wings and said, "Does the host remember that in your previous life, before you died, you tore off a piece of white jade that Ye Yingrou always carried with her? That piece of white jade is the key! It was at that time that I was awakened by the host's blood, and I managed to deceive the other AI in that piece of jade and successfully transfer it to the host!"
Ye Pianran thought for a moment and remembered that there was indeed such a thing. While feeling shocked, she also became wary: "So, your host was once Ye Yingrou?"
Having been by her side for so long and having witnessed her tragic death in her previous life, 666 naturally knew what she was thinking: "Host, don't worry~ 666 hates that hypocritical woman just as much as you do!"
A hypocritical woman? That assessment is quite apt.
"666, who exactly is Ye Yingrou? Why can she always come up with poisons that have never been seen in the world before to harm others?" Ye Pianran asked. "The poison that my mother was poisoned with, and that 'puppet' at the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet, aren't they all insidious and vicious? Is there really no one in this world who can cure her?"
Upon hearing this, 666 instantly became a little anxious, chirping, "Why not! 666 is her nemesis! Otherwise, how could that Golden-Topped Ink Lotus and the mother and child outside have truly come back to life?"
Huffing and puffing, 666 landed on Ye Pianran's shoulder and said, "Hmph, Ye Yingrou wasn't originally called Ye Yingrou. Her real name is Wang Lan. She used to be the doctor's assistant, but because she plagiarized other people's research results, the doctor ordered her to be expelled from the research institute. She harbored resentment towards the doctor, and on the night before she left, she poisoned the doctor's wine, burned down the research institute, stole the jade containing me, and used a time rift to travel here, reincarnating as 'Ye Yingrou'!"
"The reason she was able to produce so many unheard-of poisons is because after she transmigrated, she used Ye Yingrou's blood to activate the main brain program inside the jade pendant, obtaining a poison-making system!" 666 became increasingly angry as she spoke, the hair on her head standing on end.
"When the Doctor was writing the program, he set it so that once a host selected a system, all other AIs would disappear completely. I was unwilling to let the Doctor die in vain, so I forcibly scrambled the data, disguised myself as a virus, and lay dormant in the main AI program, just to wait for an opportunity to avenge the Doctor. It wasn't until my previous life, when your blood stained that jade pendant, that I was able to awaken again, using my last bit of energy to rewrite time and bring you back to life!"
"So you're going to such lengths to do all this not out of pity for my tragic fate, but because you need something from me?" Ye Pianran asked calmly. "You want to use me to avenge your 'Doctor,' is that right?"
"N-no, not really~ 666 actually feels sorry for its host, chu~" 666 lowered its head somewhat guiltily, "However, it would be best if the host could really avenge the doctor, chu~" After saying that, it affectionately rubbed its little head against Ye Pianran.
It chirped after every sentence it spoke, which made Ye Pianran feel nauseous. She coughed twice and said, "Tell me, what do you want to do for me?"
666's eyes lit up, and it chirped, "Wang Lan... Ye Yingrou is a heinous woman. 666 begs the host to eliminate her and make her disappear from this world completely!"
Ye Pianran said, "She harmed me so much in my previous life, so naturally I will not let her go."
"However, 666 is currently only in its initial state. Besides maintaining this space, it can't do anything else," 666 said, drooping its head. "So, I'm afraid it can't help the host fight against the system in Ye Yingrou's hands for the time being. *chirp*..."
Ye Pianran: "I understand. You still want me to help you 'level up,' is that right?"
666 excitedly flapped its wings: "That's right, as expected of the host chosen by 666, the host is really smart!"
"..." Ye Pianran sighed softly, raised her hand to rub her slightly aching temples, and said, "But how can I help you 'level up'?"
666 had been waiting for this very sentence. It spread its wings and flew off Ye Pianran's shoulder, gently tapping its beak in the air. Then, a huge, glowing cube appeared before Ye Pianran's eyes. The cube was divided into many smaller pieces, and what surprised Ye Pianran most was that there was even a portrait of her on it, marked with text and green strips next to it—
Ye Pianran, Level: Physician Apprentice
Skills: None
Acupuncture beginner level, proficiency: 30/1000
Beginner level alchemy, Proficiency: 12/1000
Good/Evil Value: 75/100
Experience value: 30/50000
Task completion rate: 0%
Space level: Initial level 1
Spatial spiritual energy concentration: 3%
"The large screen that appears in front of you now is called the 'System Interface.' It's the most intuitive main program that controls the entire AI. You can see your level, skill proficiency, mission progress, and spatial level status on the panel," 666 explained carefully to Ye Pianran.
"If the host wants to increase 666's level, the host must also increase their own strength. The host's current level is 'Medical Apprentice', which is the initial state, just like 666. However, as the host's acupuncture, medicine making, and treatment levels increase, the title will also change to five levels: 'Entry-level Physician', 'Junior Physician', 'Intermediate Physician', 'Advanced Physician', and 'God-level Physician'. The higher the title the host obtains, the more skilled the medical skills will be, and the more energy 666 will obtain!"
In other words, not only does 666 need an "upgrade," but now even she needs an "upgrade"?
"Then what does this good and evil value mean?" Ye Pianran asked, pointing to the longest bar of values next to her portrait.
666 said, "The good and evil value reflects the good and evil thoughts of human beings. Positive numbers represent good thoughts, and negative numbers represent evil thoughts. In this world, everyone has their own good and evil value. The higher the value, the more people will willingly surround them, support them, and serve them. Conversely, if a person's good and evil value is low, that person will inevitably be abandoned by everyone and despised by all. The host's good and evil value has soared to such a high level precisely because they saved the mother and child outside and gained Aunt Meng's gratitude."
Ye Pianran nodded knowingly, then raised her hand and pointed to the skill column that said "None".
"Why is the skill listed here as 'none'? Aren't the medical books I've read and the techniques my master taught me considered skills?"
"Of course it doesn't count. The skills here are unique to the host, one of a kind in the world, and no one else can learn or imitate them, yo-yo~"
"I see." Ye Pianran asked, "Then how can I acquire skills recognized by the system?"
