Chapter 1185: Dog Trying to Bite Its Tail
Ning Shu admitted that she was a bit worried about the gains and losses. She was a little flustered and kept pacing around in the system space,
“You look like a dog trying to bite its tail,” said 2333.
Ning Shu: …
“Can you give me a hint?” asked Ning Shu. “I’m panicking a little.”
“Don’t panic, maybe the task will be really simple.” 2333 comforted Ning Shu, “There, there, don’t be scared.”
Ning Shu: Ha. Ha. Ha….
It wasn’t like you were doing the task. It doesn’t hurt to talk.
Ning Shu thought about it, and then felt that she was just panicking too much. She silently recited the heart-clearing chant. After thinking about it, it really wasn’t such a big deal. If it came to it, she’d just start over. She had already completed so many tasks so she should be able to complete this examination task.
Ning Shu went to the fabricated space again to take a stroll. The most important part was to visit the restaurant to have a meal. No matter how much you ate in the restaurant, you wouldn’t get bloated. The moment you ate something, it’d disappear. It really satisfied the taste buds. Ning Shu would spend thousands of points every time to get a table full of food. She wanted to try all kinds of food.
“Good thing you’re only in your spiritual state. If you ate this much while you were alive, you’d definitely end up super fat,” said 2333 scornfully.
She was eating recklessly precisely because she was in her spiritual state though.
After the big meal, she headed back to the system space and grabbed a book from the bookshelf to sit down and read.
Once she finished the book, she then leisurely watered the potted plants, then ran on the treadmill for a while. In any case, she was just wandering around for a while.
“Do you even want to start the task? What are you wasting so much time for?” asked 2333.
Ning Shu sat down cross-legged on the sofa and said, “I’m not ready yet. Let me make mental preparations.”
“What preparations?” asked 2333 in confusion.
“Mental preparations.”
2333：…
System notification: [2333 doesn’t want to talk to you anymore and throws a lump of poop at you.]
Ning Shu stretched lazily. Originally she was going to enter the task world, but then she suddenly thought of something. Although 2333 was useless, there was someone who might know what she needed to pay attention to in the examination task.
She stepped in the passage to the fabricated space. After a moment of dizziness, when she opened her eyes, she was already standing on the street.
Without delay, she headed straight for the consultation room. When she got to the entrance of the consultation room, she took a moment to mourn for the points that she was about to lose.
As she walked into the consultation room, she could smell the agarwood scent. Breathing it in seemed to refresh her soul, it was like all the spiritual contamination was slowly disappearing.
Ning Shu worked her nose hard, trying to inhale as much of this fragrance as she could.
The silver-haired man came out from inside with a leather-bound book in his hand and calmly sat down. His every gesture contained the etiquette of ancient aristocracy.
“Please have a seat.” The silver-haired man placed the book on the table and opened it. He didn’t even lift his head as he said this to Ning Shu.
Ning Shu sat down opposite him as she continued to secretly work her nose to inhale the fragrance. She asked the silver-haired man, “Is there anything I should pay attention to in the intermediate examination task? Actually, I want to first ask how much it will cost to get consultation for this task?”
“A million points,” said the silver-haired man lightly.
Ning Shu: Die. Fr*cking go die…
Ning Shu’s face twitched. Last time it was three hundred thousand, this time it was a million.
“Why is it so expensive?” Good thing she had asked about it beforehand, otherwise after she finished asking and was told to pay a million, her soul probably would’ve been sent flying from the shock.
“You can also choose not to have a consultation. Pay two hundred thousand points and you can go,” said the silver-haired man lightly. His distinct joints were like jade as his fingers flipped the pages of the book.
Ning Shu was almost captivated by these hands but at these words, she snapped out of it and asked, “Why do I have to pay two hundred thousand points even if I don’t have a consultation?”
What a black shop! He demanded points so offhandedly, asking for a hundred thousand every time he opened his mouth. He should just go directly rob people! She had never seen a person this corrupt before. However, sadly, she had no choice but to come to this person for help.
