Chapter 3 (1/2)
Bedroom balcony.
Leaning against the railing, Hao Yun holds his mobile phone and is talking to his home.
”How's it going? The first day of school? ”
Difficult to do
Hao Yun originally wanted to say this, but he was afraid of his father's worry, and even more afraid that he could not explain clearly. He was also arranged to be admitted to the neurological hospital, so he sighed and said.
”It's fine. Everything's fine.”
This is the dinner. I didn't have enough.
”And roommates? How is the relationship going
”Not bad. Everyone in our dormitory is talented except me.”
There was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone.
After a long time, Dad continued to speak.
”What about the cost of living? Is 800 yuan enough? ”
”Enough, enough, not enough, I will think of a way to do a part-time job or something.”
”You still focus on your study. You don't have enough to live on.”
Hao Yun said with a smile: ”no, I can do it myself. Besides, I'm not so busy as a freshman. It's better to find some work to exercise myself than playing games in my bedroom.”
Dad was silent for a moment.
”Take care of yourself... Want to talk to mom for a while? She's just gone for a walk. It's time to come back. ”
”Tomorrow night, I'm really tired today. I'll take a bath and go to bed. Say hello to my mother and I'll hang up first.”
Hung up the phone, Hao Yun took a deep breath, slowly spit out toward the balcony, then closed his eyes, began to ponder the previous feeling.
When he just returned to his bedroom, he was thinking about what happened to him today. As a result, he was interrupted by his father's phone call when he found something.
Recalling the previous feeling, he tried to read ”system” in his heart.
Just when he felt silly and opened his eyes, lines of blue light and shadow, like ar projection, immediately replaced the deep night and projected into his pupil which was enlarged because of his surprise.
[host: Hao Yun (soul binding, can't be released)]
[talent: good luck (0)]
[attribute: locking, unlocking after completing novice task]
What the hell?
Does this plug-in still have to wait until the novice task is completed before it can arrive at the account?
Or are you still on probation, and the so-called novice task is to test yourself?
Looking at the property panel unfolded in front of him, Hao Yun tentatively stretched out his index finger and selected the ”good luck” in the talent column.
Almost at the same time, a line of caption pops up from the right side of the icon.
[good luck (0): as long as you accumulate good things and become virtuous, maybe something good will happen]
Hao Yun
What's the difference between explanation and nonsense?
And why is the interrogative tone used?
However, thinking that his talent's ”potential value” is 0 anyway, Hao Yun no longer worries about whether this talent is useful or not. He selects the question mark in the upper right corner of the system.
As he expected, a dialog similar to ”user notification” soon appeared in front of him.
Welcome to the system
[Note: once the system is bound, it will not be returned or replaced, nor can it be abandoned.]
Hao Yun
It's ok if you don't give it back.
When you binding, you didn't ask me if you agree with me?
However, he estimated that if he really wanted to choose by himself, he would probably not choose to give up, so he skipped this nonsense and continued to look down.
[instructions: the system will give the host insight beyond cause and effect according to the user agreement, and can discover the ”talent” hidden in the crowd and the potential value corresponding to the talent
[potential value greater than 5 means that the goal will develop according to the current life path and have the opportunity to achieve ”extraordinary” or above. Greater than 7 means that there is a chance to achieve more than ”epic” achievements, while greater than 10 is likely to remain famous in history. If it is lower than 1, it cannot be seen. If it is a question mark, there are still large variables to be further observed
[potential value corresponds to talent and only represents the potential in the sense of probability. It is the quantitative result of the causal tree system analysis, and has nothing to do with the actual ability of the target and the current realistic conditions
[the vast majority of tasks created by this system will revolve around this logic, and the trigger mode is directly related to the target's desire to achieve ambition. A single target can only trigger one task at a time, while different targets are not limited. Once the task is triggered, the host can choose whether to complete it or not, and the task reward will be evaluated according to the target potential value, task difficulty, and the host's causal participation
Once the task fails, it will not have a direct negative impact on the host, but the same target will not trigger the task again within a certain period of time or even forever
[in addition, different from talent, the system will specially customize the personalized attribute bar of the host, corresponding to the learning talent of specific projects, to help the host quickly master more practical skills, and more content will be explained in detail after the novice gift bag is unlocked.]
The system reserves the right of final interpretation of the user agreement
Remember, the cycle of cause and effect has begun
To achieve the other is to achieve oneself
So the attribute bar is locked because you don't have any talent?
The system is very good at taking care of people
But it's too much fun!
What makes Hao Yun feel headache most is, if the novice task fails, how to deal with it?
Is it a new trigger, or is the system closed to him forever?
To be honest, he thinks the former is more likely, but he really dares not gamble on the uncertain probability.
After all, it's no good to win. If you lose, it's a blood loss.
It seems that this broken system is over. Hao Yun is preparing to shut down the system and think about how to complete the task assigned by the system.
But just then, at the end of the description, a line suddenly appeared.
[considering that the host does not know the concept of causality when using this system for the first time, we hereby present a ”causality certificate” for trial use only
Evidence of cause and effect?
Slightly stunned, Hao Yun looks at the bottom of the property bar, and there is an extra line of icons marked as [props].
[evidence of cause and effect (disposable item): after triggering, cause and effect can be reversed in a short time, making the impossible possible. But please note that cause and effect are all reported, and all the demands are equivalent exchange. What's more, what can be sought should follow the cycle of cause and effect, and cause and effect will not respond to anything that can't be realized or the cost can't be paid back
What does reverse cause and effect mean?
After pondering this sentence several times, Hao Yun fell into a deep meditation.
”Cause and effect are rewarded... That is to say, the demand for cause and effect will also be retaliated by cause and effect?”
For example, if you wish to win one million yuan in the lottery, you will have a car accident immediately after winning the lottery, and you will lose hundreds of thousands of yuan and health in the twinkling of an eye?
As for what you want, you should follow the cycle of cause and effect. You can't make a wish, you can't realize it, you can't pay the price
It's about a million billion dollars in the lottery.
Not only the prize pool is not so big, but also it can't afford to evaporate him.
In addition, Hao Yun also noticed one detail, that is, the prop can only reverse the cause and effect in a ”short time”.
Although it's not sure how short this short time means, it obviously can't be used to achieve long-term goals.
For example, ”to become a Xueba through hard study”, ”to win the sales champion for two consecutive years, to win the favor of the boss and to promote the senior management”, which takes time to achieve, can not be achieved.
On the other hand, the desire to ”get full marks in a certain exam” or even ”write right on a certain topic” is likely to be realized... As long as the cost can be paid.
But what kind of repayment will be made for the points already obtained?
Was cheating detected after the examination?
Or just arrange a car accident later to balance it out.
Although he didn't think he would use this prop in such a boring place, Hao Yun couldn't help but think about some operation.
For example——
Use it to interfere with the cause and effect of others
But unfortunately, at this time, the balcony door suddenly opened.
Looking at Hao Yun in front of the sky, Liang Ziyuan with a towel in his hand was slightly stunned.
”... what are you doing?”
