Not long after leaving the trial hall and walking onto the streets of Red Maple Town, Su Wen saw a group of people rushing out of the side door of the hall with two carriages in a crowd. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

There were a few enforcers in the group who were running to maintain order, but more were roughly dressed mercenaries, who were yelling at each other in panic, and although they were too far away to hear all the roars, Su Wen could vaguely hear words such as "suddenly fainted" and "vomited blood".

Surrounded by crowds, the carriage swayed towards the center of town, where the only hospital in Red Maple was located.

"I guess these guys are members of the so-called lone wolf mercenary group - tsk, the law enforcement officers of Red Maple Town are really not easy, they finally came across a robbery case, and planned to come to a public trial to promote the majesty of the law, but it is estimated that even they themselves did not expect to run into a big nail. Su Wen sighed, "Then again, the power of the mercenary group was originally so big in the Duolun Empire? The black beast mercenary group over there gave me a house without even blinking an eyelid, and the lone wolf mercenary group here even dared to provoke the authority of the empire's laws, if I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I really couldn't believe it." ”

“......”

There was silence, and no voice took Su Wen's words.

"Hey, the pit daddy system?"

"I'm here, host. ”

"I'm asking you a question......

"I'm sorry, I thought you were talking to yourself. ”

“......”

Su Wen was speechless for a while, and after a while, he stopped as if he had seen a ghost.

"I said, are you in the same system today as you were before? Even if I pass the test you said, you've changed a little too much, right?

"I've always been. ”

"It's a bit of a limit to being shameless, okay?"

"It's a fact. ”

"Forget it...... We'll have time to grind down in the future, what's today's Dailies? ”

The system's answer was still unhurried: "Since the host has entered the second stage, the task system has been canceled, and all existing tasks have been invalidated." ”

Su Wen opened his mouth, he quickly opened the virtual panel of the system, and found that in addition to his attributes, shop system, and achievement system, the remaining daily missions, side quests, and main quest columns had all disappeared cleanly, as if they had never appeared.

"Why are you kidding me? How do I get exchange points?" he said with a gloomy face, "I don't care if I cancel the task system, and I will even clap my hands, but you can at least forgive my debts, bastard!" The "12450 exchange points in arrears will die if you don't pay off the remaining 171 days" in my status bar has not disappeared until now, and I only have less than 1400 points in hand, do you let me fill it with my life!"

"Please be uneasy, because considering that the host may not be able to cross the first stage of the "welfare phase" in their lifetime, the mission system has a very complete setting. However, after entering the second stage, the host naturally has other ways to exchange points for output, so the task system will be closed. ”

"Wait, you said the welfare stage?"

Su Wen was completely stunned.

It's really not that he heard it wrong, is the system actually talking about the cheating stage?

"Yes, the benefits phase. It means that you don't need to think, as long as you follow the task flow I have given, you will be able to achieve dazzling achievements in the Brilliant Continent. ”

Su Wen thought for a while and said, "At the same time, he was actually enslaved by you?"

"The term host is not appropriate, there is no content in my setting to enslave or entrap the host, it is just up to me to choose the direction of progress and tempering for the host. The system's answer remained calm, "After entering the second stage, the rights are transferred by me to the host, and I am only responsible for the auxiliary communication. ”

Su Wen was so angry that he almost laughed: "Well, help me choose the direction I want to go, it sounds good, so you chose to make me a pervert?"

"This is the most effective way to improve host mental toughness. ”

"So what's the use of that thing!"

"The higher the mental toughness, the more it can reduce the impact of negative states such as embarrassment, discussion, ridicule, and anger, and develop resistance to mental attacks. ”

Hearing the system's explanation, Su Wen couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

Think about it, if you want to complete the metamorphosis task of system release, you do need extraordinary courage and clear mind, and even if you want to ensure that the completion degree reaches 100% perfection, you need to be able to be distracted no matter what kind of environment you are in. In this way, there seems to be some truth in what the system says...... It's weird! Perverted perverts are perverts, why are you looking for such a noble reason!

However, Su Wen didn't intend to dwell too much on what had already happened, he was more concerned about the current problem.

"Forget about the previous things, after all that, you should always tell me what the so-called second phase represents, your role should be more than just chatting with me. ”

"Yes, the second phase is called the 'Equivalent Exchange Phase', where you can provide items to the system and convert them into exchange points, which can be used in lieu of the point income of the mission system. ”

"That's it?"

"Everything else is business as usual. ”

"Okay-" Su Wen lowered his head and picked up a stone casually, and then said to the system, "Come and help me exchange this thing for exchange points, it looks similar to the 'strange-shaped stubborn stone' you had the night before, even if it can't be exchanged for as many as 500 points at the list price, it shouldn't be a problem to change it for two or three hundred, right?"

The system was also very crisp, the stone pinched in Su Wen's hand disappeared out of thin air, and then his total exchange points jumped a little, from 1394 points to 1394 points. 000012 point.

"The exchange is over, I wish you a pleasant one. ”

Su Wen was not angry, he gasped instead: "Can you really change anything?"

"There are three limitations: non-living things, ownership belongs to the host, and can be held by the host, and as long as these three conditions are met, theoretically everything can be valued and exchanged for equal value. The value is evaluated based on the rarity and level of the item, and the rarer and higher the level of the item, the more exchange points can be exchanged for equal value. ”

Su Wen was silent for a moment, and then said, "I think I probably understand why you call the first stage the welfare stage. ”

He roughly calculated that he needed to pick up 10,000 stones on the ground in order to "exchange" 1 point for exchange points, so when he paid off his debts, he would need to pick up about 100 million stones, and even if he picked one up in a second, it would take three years, and at that time it was estimated that the grave grass had grown more than five feet high......

Of course, Su Wen couldn't really earn exchange points by picking up stones, but in any case, he clearly understood that the days when he could earn hundreds of exchange points just by pinching his nose and completing daily tasks were over, and each point in the future would have to be exchanged for something of 'comparable' value.

Su Wen knew what he would lose while gaining freedom, and now it seemed that this loss was really heart-wrenching.

"Hosts can apply to go back to Phase 1, but only for one chance. It seems that Su Wen feels a little pity when he finds it, and the system says to Su Wen in words, "It is very irresponsible for oneself to hand over weapons that do not belong to this world to others without any capital." If the host returns to the first stage, this behavior should be forbidden, while continuing as planned. ”

"No, I'm just emotional. ”

Su Wen rejected the system's proposal without thinking about it, compared with the current thoughts, that insignificant "welfare" is really insignificant.

"I've had enough of the old days, not only do I have to hand over weapons that don't belong to this world to Laetitia, I have bigger plans, do you want to hear about it?"

"I can see for myself. ”

"It's boring, don't I have a secret in front of you?"

"In the second stage, I will not interfere or comment on any of the host's ideas unless the host actively communicates. The host can treat me as if I don't exist, and only wake me up when needed. ”

"No, it's a feeling, like when you're in the shower, someone keeps staring at you, and although he won't reach out and touch you, and he won't laugh at your ding, which is only 2 centimeters, but you're going to feel uncomfortable, right?"

The system seems to take a few seconds to think.

"I see, I see. ”

With its answer, a conspicuous switch appeared on the attribute interface in front of Su Wen's eyes.

"The host only needs to turn off the switch, and I will actively cut off the connection with you until you turn the switch on again. ”

"Hey, it's so easy to talk?" Su Wen was a little surprised, but then thought of something, "How do I know if you are hiding in the dark and peeking." ”

"I'm not going to lie. ”

In fact, Su Wen didn't care too much about whether he lied or not, he just asked casually, but the system was able to put on such an attitude, and obviously treated himself as a collaborator. Although the original travel plan will not be completely destroyed, it will at least have to be greatly changed, after all, the way to obtain exchange points from the system has been completely changed, and Su Wen must always carefully consider his next plans.

It's almost home.

"Is there anything else, I'll shut you down if it's okay. ”

"Please. ”

......

Pushing open the courtyard door, Su Wen really saw a familiar figure in the courtyard.

Laetitia had changed into a neat maid outfit, and was now sitting on a bench by the flower bed, fiddling with her back to Su Wen, and the fragments of the flower pots and scattered dirt in the corner of the yard had long since been cleaned up. Su Wen could see at a glance the exhaustion in Laetitia's body, and it seemed that as he expected, the half-elf girl had finished the morning's training on time.

"Laetitia, I'm back. ”

Su Wen finally couldn't help but shout when he saw Lyticia's trance, but he didn't expect the latter to jump up like a frightened rabbit.

"Sorry, master, I ......"

Laetitia struggled to hide something, but Suven saw what she was fiddling with—the same Glock 18 that Suven had said to keep for the time being.

Seeing Lyticia's embarrassed appearance rarely, Su Wen couldn't help but feel a little curious, but when he thought that she had actually turned this pistol out of his room, he couldn't help but make a straight face. In fact, judging from Laetitia's reaction to this pistol in the morning, Su Wen knew that she had a strong interest in it, but for a half-elf who had never touched this kind of weapon, it was too dangerous! Su Wen didn't even teach her the basic knowledge of using a gun, so how could she trust this murder weapon to her to fiddle with?

Fortunately, nothing happened, and next time I will either take it with me or hide it deeper, and I will never make this mistake again." ’

Thinking so, Su Wen walked up to Laetitia in three steps and two steps, just to get the dangerous pistol back.

But what Su Wen never expected was that Laetitia actually hid the pistol behind her back, and raised her head to look at him with unconvinced eyes, without any intention of returning it to him.

"Master, as you said, as long as I master it thoroughly, it will be mine. ”

Laetitia said in a stubborn tone.

The corners of Su Wen's mouth twitched, this was not the first time that Lydocia had confronted him, but it was the first time that she had been so vexatious.

"You've got it?"

He asked rhetorically.

"Yes, at least I've figured out how it is constructed. ”
