Living in the Beast World With a System - Chapter 82
Wu Yue rolled her eyes. “Stupid system, did you slack off just now? The last dried greens task wasn’t this late.”
The system, with its little legs kicked up cheekily, picked its tiny nose. “This system is a diligent and responsible system. Please do not question my professional integrity.”
Wu Yue sneered. “Your face is already covered in wheel tracks from all the lies. You dare talk about integrity now?”
The system jumped up in frustration. This rotten host had become more and more arrogant, now even insulting it outright. Truly intolerable!
It was just about to explode, but then it saw its host looking smug and unafraid.
Suddenly, it remembered the embarrassing past that had not yet been forgotten and quickly changed the subject. “Host, you only made two pieces of dried greens?”
It looked at the pitiful two dandelion greens, not even enough to get stuck in its nonexistent teeth, wearing a face full of disdain.
Wu Yue scoffed. “You scamming system, don’t blame me for being crafty in return.”
She gritted her teeth and said, “Last time, fresh bitter greens were worth 0.1 point each. I worked so hard to turn them into dried greens, and you bought them by the jin, and at the cheap rate, too. Anyone with a brain would stop making more after that. I haven’t gone completely stupid.”
Reminded of that corrupt transaction, the system quietly fell silent.
After a moment, sensing that the host’s breathing had calmed, it peeked out again and spoke in a pitiful tone. “I had no choice. The prices are fixed.”
Its little voice sounded pitiful beyond words.
Wu Yue snorted coldly. The scamming system was trying to act pitiful again.
She ignored the system, which had already reached the peak of pretentiousness, and walked straight to the vine pouch. “System, get me to 100 points. I want to activate the cultivation system.”
At her command, the system immediately perked up. It looked like it wanted to grow extra legs and rushed to her side.
“Host currently has 73 points. Selling 270 dandelion greens. New account balance: 100.”
“Ding~ Points sufficient. Activating cultivation system.”
“Scanning… Host is a pure human. Activating Wu Power cultivation system.”
“System initializing. Deducting 100 points.”
“Cultivation system activated successfully.”
“Dear host, do not hesitate. Begin cultivating now!” The system’s smug voice echoed in her mind.
Wu Yue looked down at her body and muttered, Nothing seems different?
The system chuckled. “You didn’t think you’d turn into Ye Duo, did you?”
Wu Yue choked. This stupid system. Could it talk properly for once?
“Host, do you want to open the cultivation system and have a look?” The system sounded giddy.
Hearing the excitement in its tone, Wu Yue became a little curious. “How do I open it?”
The system giggled, and a familiar interface appeared in front of her. A new module had been added: Cultivation.
Wu Yue reached out and tapped it. Her basic information appeared on the screen, along with three colored bars.
The golden bar at the top was labeled Experience. The red bar showed Health. The blue one represented Wu Power.
At the moment, the golden bar showed a value of zero. Next to it was a clearly displayed number: 10.
Wu Yue lit up. “This is just like a real-life level-up game!”
The system chuckled. “Host, do you see that 10?”
Wu Yue nodded. “So, I need 10 experience points to level up?”
The system’s laughter took on a hint of schadenfreude. “Although you have a panel that clearly shows your cultivation progress, your cultivation is no different from the Wu of this world. There are no special privileges.”
