Fortunately Ning Shu had learned how to code so the original host would be able to return to her original position, otherwise this task would’ve counted as a failure.

  In general, all the knowledge that Ning Shu gained in a world would be left to the original host. The original host would possess this ability and she would as well.

  Ning Shu took a deep breath. In the future she couldn’t be this headstrong.

  Still, she couldn’t help but feel a little crestfallen because she had gained very little from this world.

  Thirty thousand experience points and five attribute points.

  After a few moments of silence, Ning Shu added all five points to intelligence. The stats panel then reflected this change.

  When 2333 saw that Ning Shu was very crestfallen, he said, “The original host’s wishes are the things she desires the most. There was no need for you to change her wishes.”


  “I know. I was dumb for assuming things.” Ning Shu nodded.

  After a moment of silence, 2333 tried to console Ning Shu again. “However, this had been the best choice in that situation. It’s fine for there to be less points, your life is still what’s most important. Seventy points already counts as passing for the tasks. Actually, tasks are also judged. There’s also satisfactory, outstanding, and perfect. Based on these four ratings, you’d get different amounts of experience points and attribute points.”


  “There’s a system like that?” Ning Shu was taken aback.

  2333 said, “Actually, you have a task that was rated as perfect, which was the prehistoric world. You were successful in securing the future of the tribe, so you got higher amounts of experience points and attribute points. As for this task, it can only count as satisfactory. The original host wasn’t very satisfied with your way of doing things, but you did finish the second half of the task, so it was rated as satisfactory.”


  Ning Shu nodded to indicate that she understood.

  She then opened the system marketplace to skim it again for useful things that she could afford.

  After browsing for a while, she found something called a calmness halo. It was a tool that could allow a player to always remain calm.

  Ning Shu really wanted it, but it was extremely expensive. It costed a hundred fifty experience points. After struggling for so long, all she had in total was two hundred experience points. After buying this calmness halo, she’d be frickin’ sent back to her starting point.

  She pressed her lips together. After an intense silent struggle, she finally decided to buy it. If she was dead, who the frick still cared about experience points?

  After pressing the exchange bottom, she saw the numbers indicating her experience points tick down rapidly until only fifty thousand were left.

  On the bright side, after adding this halo, she instantly felt more clearheaded. Even her feelings of slight depression seemed to disperse and her heart felt much calmer.

  However, Ning Shu knew that these things were just support. When doing tasks, she’d still have to rely on herself.

  She then spent some points to exchange for fasting pills, water, medicine, and antidotes.

  After preparing everything, she started cultivating her soul.

  She was still training using Unsurpassable Martial Arts. The main reason was because she felt like it was a pretty good martial arts and after all this time, she had gotten fond of it. She was also sure that this secret manual was definitely very powerful, it definitely was! The second reason was ‘cause she didn’t have enough points to exchange for a high level soul cultivation manual.

  Those secret manuals easily started at above several hundred thousand to a couple million points, so all she could do was look at them.

  The lives of task-takers were also like such. The strong got stronger and gained more resources while the weak gradually became weaker until they were eliminated by natural selection.

  She only stopped training once her soul felt full. Her soul was much stronger than it had been when she had first entered the system space. When would this soul be strong enough to reconverge into a physical body? It would be much more effective for practicing the Unsurpassable Martial Arts that way.

  It’ll definitely happen! Ning Shu silently encouraged herself. She’d continue on this path as a task-taker and become a mid-level task-taker, then a high-level task-taker. She’d walk the face of countless planes!

  Her earlier feelings of depression were now replaced by hot-blooded excitement. Ahead was another new journey.

  Our goal was the vast sea of stars!

  “System 2333-sama, let’s enter the task world,” said Ning Shu to 2333.

  When 2333 saw that Ning Shu’s earlier gloomy air was gone, his tone became more relieved. “Alright, work hard Ning Shu!”


  Ning Shu felt her head go blank. When she felt sensation again, she found that she was currently lying on a wooden bed and all around her were ancient era style furniture and decoration.

  She was pretty sure that the background for the task this time was the ancient Chinese era. She just didn’t know what the original host’s wishes were.

  #comment: Ohohoho, this halo will come in very useful, in various ways in the future~
