Jiang Xun: “I think your algorithm is pretty lame.”
System: “…”
Jiang Xun: “But it’s free, so it’s understandable.”
System: “…”
It felt insulted.
Jiang Xun looked at her merit points. It was now16,769 merit points.
She still had more than 3,000 merit points to go to unlock the skill category in the system store.
And even if she unlocked it, she still needed merit points to redeem skills.
Her chances of winning this time were not high. She had to increase her chances of winning.
She was also very interested in Xuyan’s character.
If she did not care, it would be fine. But since she was interested, she had to fight for it.
Jiang Xun turned her attention to the system again.
Before Jiang Xun could say anything, the system had a bad premonition.
Jiang Xun asked, “Do you have to do something to prove that you’re not that lame?”
The system paused and said,”No, I don’t want to prove it.”
Jiang Xun said, “Aren’t you afraid that your lame method will be spread out and embarrass you in the system world?”
The system said, “It’s not like you can spread it.”
Jiang Xun could only contact it, but not the other systems.
Jiang Xun said, “That might not be the case. Don’t you know something about the other systems? There must be some backdoor between you and the rest that you can peek at, right?”
The system was speechless.
Damn it!
She had actually guessed it!
As expected, it could not do something for free. It would never work for the host for free again!
Not only did it not get any benefits from helping for free, it was even threatened by her!
Jiang Xun said, “It’s not that you can’t work for me for free, but since you’ve agreed to do it for free, then do your best for free. Don’t try to take advantage of the situation! What’s the difference between your free work and those free trials on the Internet?”
The system: “…”
Jiang Xun: “Aren’t you embarrassing the system industry? Do you still want to win the best system award?”
The system: “…”
Jiang Xun: “That’s why I’m giving you a chance to redeem yourself.”
The system was tired. “Host, what exactly do you want?”
Be more direct!
Jiang Xun chuckled in her mind and said, “In the skill category of the system store, let me choose a skill to experience it!”
The system was speechless.
So this was the reason why she had said so much.
Jiang Xun: “Like those skills in the system store, I have to give them a try before I know if they will work. After all, the merit points required are not low!”
The system: “…”
Did the host start to pull its wool because she had not been able to pull her antis’ wool recently?
Jiang Xun: “You guys sell things so expensive, so you can’t not even give me a try, right? Normally, I don’t say anything when you cheat me, but you have to compensate me a little. I don’t ask for much. I just want to choose a skill from it. It’s not like I have to try all the skills once. If you let me try one of the skills, I’ll be able to know how the other skills are based on the quality of the skill I’m trying to use. If it’s really good, it’ll definitely attract me to try my best to earn merit points to buy the skills.”
Jiang Xun gave the system a final push. “You know how fast I earn merit points, so I’ll definitely let you be selected as the best system. If you have any other performance evaluations or best sales awards, I’ll be able to get them for you. But if I’m so awesome, as my system, shouldn’t you be a little more awesome as well?”
The system: “…”
The system: “Alright, there’s no need to say anymore. I’ll go apply for you.”
Jiang Xun: “Go!”
The system: “Host, you can consider uploading your own will into our system after you die. With your eloquence and wisdom, you’ll definitely become the best system in the system world.”
Actually, the system wanted to say that Jiang Xun was shameless and treacherous.
However, the system also needed to know how to be flexible.
Jiang Xun said, “Hmm? I thought you systems were programmed, but it’s actually the will of a real person after they die?”
The system: “…”
Oh no, it seemed to have revealed something extraordinary.
However, thinking about how it wouldn’t affect anything even if it said it out loud, the system said, “The ones who programmed are all low-level systems. Those like us who follow the host are all high-level systems, and the high-level systems all come from uploading consciousness.”
Otherwise, why would they answer Jiang Xun so fluently and without any sense of mechanics?
Jiang Xun was surprised. “Then do you still retain your memories from when you were alive?”
The system was silent for a moment, “Yes, we do. Those who can upload their consciousness into the system are all strictly selected. Therefore, we systems were good people when we were alive. The host can rest assured about this. This could also be considered as providing another possibility for people. After death, the consciousness will remain forever.”
The system said, “Especially those who had made great contributions when they were still alive. They are geniuses who possess profound scientific knowledge. Many of them regret that their consciousness does not exist after death, so they cannot continue their research and discover more scientific mysteries. Therefore, we can provide them with a method to leave their consciousness behind. Many such geniuses are willing to leave their consciousness behind and upload it into the system.”
Jiang Xun felt that what the system mentioned was more like a huge organization, like a five-dimensional or even higher-dimensional life form.
But this also seemed to explain the ability of the system to save her.
The consciousness of the genius scientists had been left behind generation after generation, and they had been carrying out scientific research and exploration.
This organization possessed a very high level of technology.
It was beyond the level of many worlds. It was even possible that they were at the highest level.
Jiang Xun said, “If such super-intelligent consciousness were left behind, there must be a way to restrain them, right? Otherwise, it would be very dangerous for a system to hide in a human’s consciousness.”
It was equivalent to saying that her life was in the hands of the system.
Jiang Xun had actually noticed this a long time ago, but the system had never done anything to hurt her.
Even if it had nothing to say every time, it would just shut itself up for a while.
Therefore, Jiang Xun thought that other than the system itself being a good system, there must also be something restraining them.
In the past, Jiang Xun thought that her life was picked up by luck and it didn’t matter even if the system was really a ticking time bomb.
She had already managed to live longer than before.
But now that Mufeng was here, Jiang Xun could no longer treat it with such an indifferent attitude.
She needed to understand what the system was like.
The system said, “Host, you can rest assured on this point. We have a very strict set of management and control procedures. If a system harbored evil intentions towards the host, the system would automatically trigger the self-destruct procedure, and the system would be unable to intervene. The system consciousness would be erased, and a new consciousness would be uploaded to replace the original system consciousness.”
Jiang Xun nodded. In that case, she had nothing to be afraid of.
She did not think that the system would lie to her in this regard.
