Chapter 331: Chapter 331

Ever since confirming that the instance was indeed a "World Fragment," Qian Qi became extremely busy, occasionally messaging people, and sometimes spending a bit with the system.

"Magic Beasts belong to the world of this instance, so naturally, the Magic Plants that allow them to evolve are also within the dungeons that make up this world," Qian Qi quickly recorded on her Light Brain, "Hmm... The evolution materials for the White Extreme Rat are in this B-level dungeon, the Extreme Cold Storm Wolf is in this B-level dungeon, oh? This A-level dungeon also has them? Let me check... The evolution materials for the Flying Divine Wing Wolf are also within this A-level dungeon, alright, not bad, not bad."

"And also Ah Tu’s B-level evolution materials, let me see..." Qian Qi meticulously noted down the evolution materials needed for several Contracted Beasts, then suddenly remembered something, as she squinted gleefully and leaned towards the system.

"Brother Tongzi~" Qian Qi pinched her voice playfully, "Help me out, will you~"

[Thank you, I am genderless; calling me ’Brother’ won’t work.] The system cautiously stepped back, knowing that whenever this coquettish expression emerged, Qian Qi surely aimed to freeload its functionalities.

"System Lord~" Qian Qi continued to implore theatrically, "You know, some seeds may be quite fragile, keeping them with me isn’t safe~"

Qian Qi blinked her starry eyes, "So~ lend me your space, please~"

[Don’t you have Moyu? Those seeds are quite small; wouldn’t they fit in its tummy?] The system quickly refused, being too aware of Qian Qi and itself, knowing that if it set a precedent this time, there could be no limit to her future exploitations!

"But some seeds are quite big, and its stomach can’t fit them!" Qian Qi nudged her head against its panel, twisting her body with her head while rubbing against its panel, "Please, just these seeds~ they aren’t dirty~"

[...] The system was speechless at her peculiar coquettish gesture, and mercilessly declined, [Not happening, even for money. Don’t even think about it.]

This time clean seeds might be stored, who knows what dirty stuff might be placed next time, it’s a system, not a portable suitcase!

Seeing the system disagree, Qian Qi’s fawning smile instantly collapsed, and she left the tent silently.

The system snorted, staying lying on the bed Qian Qi had slept on, typing against the top of the tent: [Don’t even think about it, I would never give in!]

Five minutes later, the system turned over.

Ten minutes later, the system quietly moved to the tent door, peeking out through a gap. ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ ⓝovelFire.net

Fifteen minutes later, the system blinked its dry eyes, feeling a bit worried, [Where is she? Did she secretly go off to cry in grievance?]

[I just want to see how ugly Qian Qi looks when crying, I’m definitely not worried for her, uh-huh.] The system muttered as it flew out of the tent, [Actually, she gave me 4 million, whereas borrowing space a few times wouldn’t be impossible, considering seeds aren’t dirty either... no, no, no, can’t, shouldn’t self-PUA! System, stay alert! You are an intelligent ’Tongzi’! You can’t turn into a giving ’Tongzi’! There’s no future in chasing, only ending with nothing!]

The system snapped back to reality and then found Qian Qi.

Qian Qi was sitting near an extinguished campfire, her head lowered and small waist bent. From the system’s perspective, it could see her lifting her hands, placing them before her eyes; her arms occasionally twitched, and her shoulders trembled alongside. She murmured occasionally, looking like a pitiful crying figure that evoked empathy from anyone witnessing.

[Qian Qi...] The system suddenly felt it might be too ruthless. It floated over, intending to pat Qian Qi’s shoulder to compromise, only to see her holding several torn cloth pieces and needles, cursing under her breath, "Damn system, thinks I can’t find another way without it! Hmph, once I sew a vest for Moyu, Qian Ba, Bai Ji, and Little Poison, your shabby space would be utterly useless! Useless!"

Saying my shabby space is worthless? Then I’ll show you just how useful my shabby space really is!

The system opened its enormous mouth, directly swallowing Qian Qi’s head, picking her up, and flying over the military camp!

What happened? Why am I being lifted?

Where is my head, where is my head? What is this place? Why is everything pitch black?

Surrounded by darkness, Qian Qi saw nothing. The only thing she could feel was her entire body being lifted, continuously kicking her legs with no footing beneath.

The entire camp witnessed a "headless corpse" struggling and fluttering across the sky that day, their grotesque magic act almost petrifying the Awakener warriors.

These days, it’s not the Magic Beasts that invoke fear, it’s the headless ghosts that do!

"Oh my, what’s happening?" Gong Qiang, just finished with his work, came out to see headless Qian Qi floating by, the towering man nearly choked on his breath from fright, "What trick is she up to again?!"

"System, is this your doing!" Unable to find footing, Qian Qi reached up to touch her head, sure enough finding the system panel, realizing it had swallowed her head, she cursed loudly, "You petty thing! It’s just a shabby space, let me down!"

No need to guess, it’s undoubtedly dragged her across the entire camp!

Regrettably, in this pitch-dark space, Qian Qi’s voice made no sound. Realizing the system still wouldn’t release her head, Qian Qi held back, finally unveiling a sinister cold smile.

Fine, I’ll show you what it’s like to feel utterly drained physically!

Qian Qi lifted her hands, pried open the system’s massive mouth, squeezed half her body inside, then her hands rummaged through the space, pulling out piles of money!

What the heck! This damn rascal!

The system promptly spat out Qian Qi, but it was too late, as she embraced piles of money, grinning menacingly at the system, "Heh heh heh—these monies are all mine!"

[Damn Qian Qi, if I don’t make you cry today, I will take your last name!] The system burst into furious rage, swinging its panel towards Qian Qi’s head!

Qian Qi fled, fortuitously meeting Gong Qiang coming to her rescue, immediately hiding behind Gong Qiang, sticking out her tongue and making faces at the system.

The system came to an abrupt halt, narrowly missing blowing off Gong Qiang’s head.

"Brother Qian, what are you doing!" Seeing Qian Qi unharmed, yet clutching quite a stash of cash, Gong Qiang bewilderedly asked, "What was happening just now? How did your head disappear?"

"Oh oh, nothing, my concealing Contracted Beast was just teasing me~" Qian Qi grinned cheekily, "It has a bit of an odd habit, likes to hold onto my head, sorry about that~"

After speaking, she shared a bit of the money with Gong Qiang, "Finders keepers! I’m off then!"

Raging system: [!!! You all get lost at once!]
