Is The System Smart? (1)
【Spend 10,000 points to upgrade the system?】
【Confirm】
This time, the system’s upgrade was a bit slow. Jiang Xiaoman waited until she was a little sleepy, but the system still hadn’t managed to finish upgrading.
She was too sleepy, so she went to bed first.
The next day, the system woke her up.
“Host, I am now a second level villain system.” The system said, “I am one step closer to becoming a big system!”
Jiang Xiaoman said, “Congratulations.”
After some compliments, Jiang Xiaoman opened the system panel and found that it was still the same panel and looked no different on the surface. The only thing that had changed was that there was only a fraction of the points left.
Sigh, it was really difficult to raise a system. Especially a system that only spent points without being able to earn them.
Jiang Xiaoman was already familiar with the layout and opened the system mall.
There were only five boxes that were lit up before, which was “Mama Rong Acupuncture Technique”, “Absolute Flower Destruction card”, “School Toilet Assassin”, “Absolute Slip Up And Fall To The Ground card” and “Absolute Terminal Illness card.” But sure enough, when she opened it again now, there were four more boxes and all the items inside were lit up.
Jiang Xiaoman exclaimed “wow”. Her eyes sparkled as she clicked on them and studied the items one by one.
【Item price: 500 points.
Item name: Revocation Card
Item description: The Revocation Card can revoke various buffs and debuffs granted by the system. When the host regrets using an item or item card, you can use this card.
PS: This card comes with a side effect. Once it is used, the target cannot be affected by the system for ten days.】
Wow, Revocation Card. It looked expensive, but seemed useless.
Jiang Xiaoman thought for a while and couldn’t think of any use for it for now, so she didn’t think much about it for the time being. However, she thought that she shouldn’t jump into conclusions early. It might feel useless now, but perhaps other uses might come up later.
For example, the Absolute Flower Destruction card seemed very bland and useless at first, but in fact it was the cheapest and most powerful card in the system mall! Normally there was no place to use it, but once it’s used, it would be very effective!
Jiang Xiaoman kept looking.
【Item price: 200 points.
The system quickly took one out for her.
Veritaserum was a bottle of blue liquid that looked clear and translucent like jadeite. It looked very beautiful.
The bottle was only the size of a thumb, Jiang Xiaoman opened the lid and drank everything.
After drinking, she waited for a while and there didn’t seem to be any effect.
Jiang Xiaoman said, “System, you can ask me a few questions to see if I answer them correctly, if it’s really the truth?”
Naturally, the system cooperated with Jiang Xiaoman.
It didn’t think about it for too long, and quickly asked the first question. “Does the host like me?”
“I do.” There was no doubt about this.
“Does the host think I’m amazing?”
“Yes.”
The system was happy, the host was so sincere, so this must be the truth. The Veritaserum was truly worthy of being a truth serum.
“Does the host think I am smart?”
“No.”
“?” The system was speechless for a while, and continued to ask. “How am I not smart?”
Speaking of this, Jiang Xiaoman had a lot to say.
“Although the system knows a lot of things and is very knowledgeable, it doesn’t know how to use it. Just like a person guarding a treasure vault who doesn’t have the key to open it. This isn’t called smart, this is called wasting Heaven’s gift!”
“Other than needing the system to tell me some popular science sometimes, I rarely use the system now. I fell that it’s not only not smart, it’s also a little dumb. When I was five or six years old, I was already smarter than the system. Of course, the current me is a hundred times smarter than the system!”
“But sometimes, the system is very reliable, but I can’t tell it this. If I tell it that it’s smart, it will definitely feel like floating and will never be obedient. Ah, why did I say everything?”
Jiang Xiaoman covered her mouth with a panicked look.
Was this the power of Veritaserum?
She obviously intended to keep hiding that in her heart without ever saying it!
Ahh shit, the system must be resentful!
