The first thought Wei Huo had when he heard the ringtone was, Motherf*cker, am I dreaming? Is this my alarm?
However, Wei Huo observed his surroundings carefully. The rain continued pouring, and everything around him seemed real. There were no signs of him waking up either.
What the hell is this? Wei Huo could not tell where the sound was coming from due to the heavy rainstorm.
He could only start swimming around. However, no matter where he swam, the sound of the ringtone would not increase or decrease. It was the same even when he dived into the sea.
Wei Huo immediately understood. Is the ringtone coming from me?
Wei Huo searched the surface of the sea and took out the landscape painting.
The ringtone became louder. “Please don’t feel sad…”
Wei Huo pulled the scroll open and saw a mini loudspeaker.
He was speechless.
It was a landscape painting with a curved screen. It looked like a scroll, but it turned out to be a screen.
“Stop, stop, stop!” Wei Huo shouted.
The ringtone stopped. Soon, a string of words appeared on the screen. “I was worried that you were a little too sad, so I played a song to improve your mood.”
Wei Huo scrunched his brows. “I’m not sad… What are you?”
Another string of words appeared on the screen. “Esteemed Awakened Player, System Number Two is serving you. However, I have a question for you. Are you an Awakened Player or an Awakened NPC?”
System Number Two? Awakened?
Wei Huo started thinking. The situation was getting clearer and clearer, but there were still many things that remained shrouded in fog.
“I should be an Awakened Player. Quick, tell me what you are. Otherwise, I will destroy you immediately!”
The screen of System Number Two was calm at first. “Hmm… Awakened Player, switch automatically to the 4,399th service package…”
However, a moment later, the tone of the words changed. “F*ck! You are an Awakened Player? F*ck… The game will start in three hours. None of the players have appeared yet. Did you cheat?”
However, the words calmed down very quickly. “Wait, your account… Could it be the administrator’s account? You’re actually the Awakened Character of the administrator’s account! Impressive! I didn’t expect my first service partner to be so impressive. I have no regrets in my life!”
Wei Huo thought about it and asked, “Are you artificial intelligence?”
A string of words appeared on the screen. “No, I’m not. I’m not a low-level creature. Like System Number One, I’m a combination of human spirits and a consciousness formed by countless dead souls. However, this consciousness was transformed into a game system 500 years ago. Not long ago, I was separated by the game creator and made into a backdoor system to serve the Awakened. Do you know about the back door? Have you heard that poem? My dear, I came from the back door. My dear, I left through the back door. With a wave of my sleeve, I left…”
“Stop!” Wei Huo tried to cut it off immediately but could not. This is a screen. How can I interrupt it? Wei Huo frowned. System Number Two doesn’t seem like a proper system!
“I understand that you’re the backdoor system, but I want to know what kind of functions you have. How can you serve me?” Wei Huo asked.
System Number Two suddenly became serious… It sang a very serious song as a message appeared on the screen. “Please take out the Creation Jade Plate. That is actually my charging device. The Creation Jade Plate can absorb energy from the void. It can absorb energy from the void indefinitely, but it can only be converted into electricity to take out the East Yellow Bell. That item is actually a positioning system. It can locate me anytime anywhere. That way, I can search the database at any time. As for how I can help you, I’m sorry. I can’t increase your combat power. I don’t have a combat ability. All I can do is give you information in the game.”
