With a ding sound, Bai Jiang was pulled out of her joy.

“Congratulations to Bai Jiang for triggering a side mission to save a respectable old man. The reward has been distributed to your space.”

Saving a respectable old man was a side mission?

That doesn’t make sense!

She had already saved the old principal during the main mission when she treated 150 patients at the market.

At that time, she had not triggered any side missions.

And then, she went to the old principal’s house yesterday and performed acupuncture on him.

At that time, the old principal’s symptoms had already improved. Why didn’t she trigger the mission at that time?

Instead, it was triggered and completed after 24 hours.

Bai Jiang was filled with confusion. She tentatively asked in her mind, “System, are you online?”

The system didn’t stay silent for too long and replied, “I’m here.”

“System, what functions do you have?” Bai Jiang asked.

If the system were a person, it would probably be pleased that Bai Jiang was finally taking the initiative to understand it.

“Host, I have many functions, including a mall where you can exchange items using your points.”

“Mall? Can you show me what’s in the mall now?”

Bai Jiang’s question made the system fall silent for a long time. Bai Jiang didn’t rush it either.

After a while, the system finally spoke, “In response to the host’s inquiry, the mall is not yet open to the public due to insufficient points and prestige points. Please complete the mission as soon as possible to open the mall.”

What’s going on? What are these points and prestige?

“What are these points you mentioned? And what about prestige points?”

“Host, when you completed the main mission of treating 150 patients, you received 1000 points and 3 prestige points. To gain access to the system mall, you need to accumulate over 10,000 points and have 100 prestige points.”

Bai Jiang was stunned. Only 1000 points for treating 150 patients?

“Did you swallow my points?” Bai Jiang asked again.

As soon as the system heard that, the buzzing sound of the electric current grew even louder. It was so loud that Bai Jiang could barely stand it.

“Host, you can choose not to trust the system, but you should never doubt the system’s integrity! I’ve tried my best to earn points for you. Only certain significant cases can give you points, and the points earned for saving patients can vary.”

Bai Jiang became even more perplexed. What was the system saying? She felt that she could understand the meaning of these words when they were separated, but when they were put together, it made her dizzy.

The system could sense Bai Jiang’s confusion and gave an example to explain.

“For example, let’s say you treat two patients with a fever. If one patient has a fever due to a common cold, you will only receive two points. However, if the other patient’s fever is caused by a blood disease, you will receive 100 points after successfully treating them.”

“Of course, not every patient with a cold and fever will give you two points. It depends on the severity of the patient’s illness. It’s the same for patients with blood diseases.”

Bai Jiang finally understood! She nodded her head, though she wasn’t sure if the system could see her.

“System, I’ve always been curious about who you are and where you come from. Why did you choose me to be your host?”

After Bai Jiang asked this question, the sound of the system’s electric current became even louder than before, causing discomfort and prompting Bai Jiang to close her eyes.

“As a system, if you cannot control yourself, I believe we can separate our connection.” Bai Jiang said.

Of course, using the term “separate our connection” was just a casual remark. Bai Jiang couldn’t disconnect from the system.

After all, she still relied on the system’s Spirit Spring Water to treat the baby.

The sound of electricity from the system disappeared, and then it fell silent for some reason.

Bai Jiang also remained silent. The surroundings were incredibly quiet, so quiet that she could only hear her breathing.

After a long time, the system finally spoke.

“I come from the future. I was created by the Master, and the system was sent back to ancient times. I chose you because you have excellent medical skills. As long as you complete certain missions, both you and I can accumulate points. You can exchange those points for things you want, and I can continue to operate.”

“Once my points reach a certain level, I can return to the future.”

Bai Jiang’s eyes widened. What did the system just say?

“Are you saying that by completing missions, both you and I can earn points? So, from these 150 patients, I only received 1000 points, and you took at least half of them, right?”
