Prologue: The Challenge from the 'World' (Part II)

That night.

Gu Wu reached a consensus with Harriet and Fanny about the [Seed Incident], and the two also agreed with Gu Wu's statement and withdrew the original proposal to suppress and control the Seed Incident.

Judging from the discussion just now, Gu Wu thought that the two Harriets just wanted to test themselves, confirm their attitude towards the [Meow Incident], and see if they could find an opportunity to take a kick in it.

If there is a reason, it is that Harriet had mentioned the 'combat power of the mews' on the way, and if the mews were to be treated as mercenaries, they would be highly valued.

Even if the world that Gu Wu exchanged for has been completely unified, it does not mean that it is peaceful, and there are still shadows lurking in the darkness in some unknown corner and poorly managed city, and those shadows are the 'threats' in the eyes of ordinary people.

Harriet thinks that the mews are dangerous, but at the same time she agrees with their abilities and wonders if she can use them to do things for herself.

To be honest, this is the reason for Gu Wu's actions, the mews are indeed the enemies of humanity, but this also proves that this group of non-humans can eradicate the restless and extreme guys.

No matter how powerful and powerful Gu Wu was, he was essentially a human being, and it was impossible for him to deal with all the problems at the same time.

Thanks to this, Gu Wu also understood the disadvantages of the exchange world that the system had said.

Of course, Gu Wu doesn't have to do anything, and leaves everything to others to handle, but if he doesn't have to be responsible for dealing with the problem? That's why he wastes his energy on some work.

However, this is not all bad for Gu Wu, he needs to play the role of a 'broker' in general tasks, and naturally he needs to know how to operate a person and an organization benignly, and the world that can be exchanged provides a good opportunity.

[Responding to the host, the system is still considering the arrangement of the next task, so the start time will be delayed by a few days, so the host can take a good rest.] 】

"Considerations? Do you as a system really need time to think? It stands to reason that you're better than a quantum computer, right? ”

[In response to the host, the host has had a certain 'subjective bias' against my existence for a long time, and in fact, the self-thinking ability of this system will perform backward calculations after reaching conclusions, which will take more time.] 】

"Backwards? Referring to things in the future? If that's the case, it's understandable. ”

It's just that Gu Wu remembered what his teacher said.

"It's normal to look into the distance, after all, there are always possibilities for an uncertain future, but if you don't even take the first step, isn't it the same as darkness in front of you?"

This is a bit different from 'regretting it rather than not doing it, it is better to regret it after doing it', Gu Wu believes that what the teacher wants to emphasize is to understand what he should do in the first step, rather than what the result will be after doing it.

It's true that people are responsible for their own results, but why not take responsibility for their first steps?

If the first step is correct enough, the results will surely avoid most of the troubles in the future.

Of course, different views and different ideas, Gu Wu does think about the future, but he pays more attention to the present, which is why he works hard in this exchange world.

Hearing Gu Wu's speech just now, the system in his mind responded at this time

[Responding to the host, I can only say that it is really worthy of the host, but for this system, ensuring the smoothness of the plan is the most important, and I don't have any thoughts about other issues; Not only that, but the reason why this system is so serious is also because the host has more potential than the previous one, which is very important. 】

"Even compliments don't do me any good, and it seems to me that the previous hostel was much better than me."

It is true that the previous host failed, but everything he did was admirable.

The belief in saving others, the determination to duel with opponents, and all these rules that have been laid down.

"In that case, the previous host was in control of you, so he was qualified to give you orders? After all, you don't do what your host says for no reason, do you? ”

[In response to the host, the answer to this question is 'half each', the previous host did pay achievement points when giving me these orders and setting permissions, but in fact, the system had already transferred a lot of permissions to the previous host at that time.] 】

"Transfer permissions...... So he must have done a lot of very special things, otherwise he wouldn't have gotten the 'support' you gave him, so what did the previous host want me to do? ”

This question has never been answered positively by the system, and the need for more information requires enough achievement points and the number of quests to complete means that it can only be understood later on.

"I admire the previous host, but I guess I won't do what he thinks."

[In response to the host, the previous host had no intention of restraining you, and in the records of this system, the previous host was more casual than you. 】

"More casual than me?"

Gu Wu doesn't think that he is so casual, and the reason why he will adapt to the status quo is also based on 'doing this is less troublesome', not the kind of person who is comfortable with what happens.

"By the way, one more thing, regarding the issue of sending those children to school, after the 'optimization' you mentioned, the virus in Luise and Tina's bodies will not spread and will not continue to worsen, right?"

[In response to the host, you seem to have a good guess about everything.]

The system used a somewhat joking tone, and it sounded like he didn't care.

[In response to the host, since the 'optimization' itself is an act made in the 'most appropriate state', the virus in their body will not spread everywhere, as for whether it will aggravate ......]

"Is there any medication for the condition?"

[In response to the host, there are infinite possibilities in the items that can be exchanged for achievement points, but from the perspective of the setting, if they lose those 'viruses', they will also lose the settings that the characters themselves have.] 】

Is it their powers? Of course, Gu Wu wanted this.

"As I said before, I don't let them fight, it's better for a little guy of this age to learn obediently than to fight the enemy on the battlefield."

Not everyone can be the hero of a story.

What high school students and college students save the world is an unreliable thing in itself.

Most of the scientists and scholars who have changed the world are not so young, after all, the knowledge accumulated over time is enough to make people transform.

Of course, it seems stupid to seek truth in the virtual world, but since you want to live, you should adapt to the basic setting of the world and play a role that can live a stable life.

Magnificent stories are always full of dangers, and as an 'agent' who stays behind the scenes, Gu Wu thinks that it is a very good choice to take a safe route.

"Anyway, I'll arrange for them to go to school."

[Respond to the host, remember to ask them what they think before you do that, I don't want to see you discouraged by being hated to the point that it will affect future missions.] 】

"You're underestimating me, aren't you? Discouraged or something......"

In addition to this question, Gu Wu is also concerned about the 'task' mentioned by the system before.

"You said the mission was going to be postponed, can you provide any PV or anything like that now?"

[In response to the host, it's the first time I've heard such a statement that there is a notice, but it's just ......]

The system paused for a moment and continued to speak in Gu Wu's mind

[In response to the host, if you want this system to describe the next task, there is actually nothing special, just let the host find a way to complete the command of an activity.] 】

"The commander of the event?"

[In response to the host, since this world has not yet been fully developed, the system has decided to insert a mission in this world, of course, you can also refuse the host.] 】

"Wait, if I arrange tasks in this world, wouldn't it mean that I can use the resources of this world? I don't have any objections. ”

To put it bluntly, it's like taking the world on a mission, so what is there to be afraid of?

Not to mention the AltaΓ―r who were right next to him, in addition to them, the army that directly belonged to Gu Wu, the well-trained soldiers, and the meow species that had just been negotiated, they could all become Gu Wu's combat power.

"Are you sure you want to do that?"

[Responding to the host,It seems that the host is worried.,As long as the host is willing to carry out a mission in this world,,I'll start arranging.,And start supplementing the work of additional settings for the mission.】 】

"Additional settings? It sounds like it's about doing something, but if I can use the resources of this world, your tasks will be much less difficult. ”

[In response to the host, in fact, the task of this system is not to stump the host, but to carry out more accurate settings and intelligence collection; On the other hand, characters don't have to be powerful to dominate the world, and the host must also know that the 'invincible character' itself does not exist. 】

"That's true of the characters attached to the setting."

Thinking of this, Gu Wu suddenly remembered an incident that had been thrown into the depths of his memory.

"Because I've been leaning on Altair all the time, I almost forgot about it...... As for Frieza, the 'contractor' of the previous host, can I go directly to him? ”

[Respond to the host, of course, there is no problem in inviting it to this world, but the other party still seems to treat the host as the previous host.] 】

"Yes, I inherited the 'contract' from the previous host, and only Frieza is the 'contractor' left, maybe they have a very good relationship between the two."

Friends on the battlefield, bosom friends of mutual help or something......

But...... Frieza doesn't seem to be that kind of character.

"It's a bit of a worry to bring in a character with a lot of instability...... I'll wait until I get to know the previous host better. ”

Now I can't be in a hurry, I can't be in a hurry.

"So back to the topic of missions, is there a more specific notice?"

[In response to the host, please investigate the information in other aspects by yourself at that time, and this system can still say about this...... This world was born because of Mr. Gu Wu's exchange, and if you want it to continue to exist, you must make sure that you don't make random decisions. 】

"Of course."

Then the system continued to emphasize in a serious tone

[In response to the host, this can be seen as a challenge to you by the world, because its stability, its survival, are all up to you, and its enemies are ...... The enemy of the world is also your enemy. 】

"Enemy of the World......

It seems to be many times more exaggerated than expected.

What kind of task is the task just mentioned by the system?

The guy who threatens the world can really be the enemy of the world?

Gu Wu didn't think so, because now he had an absolute advantage, just like the main god of the reincarnation world, he could use his power to forcibly decide everything.

However, Gu Wu basically didn't do that.

"I'm a pacifist."

Unless you face the enemy, you will become 'nuclear level'.

β€”β€”β€”β€”

After chatting with the system late at night, the maids and housekeepers from all over the place had long since left, and even Richardson had left work early to attend his granddaughter's birthday party.

Chinohe and Yuri are also the kind of people who go to bed early, especially when the food is plentiful and both are delicious.

And Lori Luise and Tina rested early because of exercise, and the hall where the game consoles and chess boards were placed often became unusually quiet at this moment.

Outside the floor-to-ceiling windows, the sea is engulfed in darkness, and the dark clouds that obscure the moon make the lights inside as bright as day.

Gu Wu didn't drink alcohol, but took out the milk that Richardson changed and replenished every week from the refrigerator.

"Good evening."

There was no obvious sound of footsteps, so Gu Wu was startled by the greeting that came to mind from behind.

"Miss Altair?"

Gu Wu, who turned around, saw Altai in his coat.

"I've heard from Moment, you're going to send those kids to school?"

"Yes, is it going to be troublesome?"

"No, I don't have any doubts about it, but for the kids...... Especially the kid named Louise, she admires you a lot, she doesn't necessarily want to be disciplined by others, and she has that ability......"

"Worship...... It feels like it's just a whim, and it doesn't hurt anyone, right? ”

But AltaΓ―r's reminder is not unreasonable, so Gu Wu will pay attention.

"The 'system' you mentioned has made a new arrangement?"

"That's right, I have to say that Miss Altai is really sharp."

Altair didn't answer, but asked briefly

"What about the enemy?"

Gu Wu raised his right hand in response to this, pointing to the soles of his feet.

"In this world, maybe it's a trial of the world or something, right?"

Everything you can see is a part of the future, so how will the enemies in this world attack?

No matter what, Gu Wu was already ready.
