Chapter 172: Is the System Finally Responding?
Tom's sliding kneel was like a spark accompanied by lightning, resembling the sparks that fly when a train's wheels screech to a sudden stop on the tracks. Once in front of Bai Song, Tom promptly clasped his hands together and, in no time, tears welled up in his eyes.
In this pitiful and tearful state, Tom began to plead with Bai Song. "No~no~no~no~no~." The sound that came out of Tom's mouth was somewhere between meowing and human speech. Even with the most careful listening, one couldn't distinguish if this cat was pitifully meowing or seemingly speaking like a fairy.This chapter is updated by nov(e)(l)biin.com
Of course, if possible, Tom would prefer to become a fairy after being feminized.
Seeing Tom on the ground begging desperately, Bai Song felt a bit awkward about getting angry. However, he still said, as a formality, "Your begging won't help. You won't have lunch today!"
"Huh?" Hearing this, Tom's eyes flickered. It had never crossed its mind that by crying for a little while, the punishment would be reduced to only missing dinner. Did that mean there was hope for dinner?
It could hardly believe it. The longer it suffered, the less punishment it would receive? Could the other half of the punishment be canceled if it endured a bit more?
With such thoughts in mind, Tom pretended to cry even harder, "No~no~no~no~no~."
Coughing a couple of times, Bai Song assumed a serious expression with his hands behind his back. "I'll forgive you this time, but it won't happen again."
Upon receiving Bai Song's seemingly easy forgiveness, Tom wiped its eyes, and the tears instantly disappeared as if they had never been there. Then, Tom jumped up in excitement, shouting, "Wu Hu!"
Seeing Tom switch from begging to cheerfulness so quickly, Bai Song's head was filled with question marks. Somehow, he felt that Tom's repentance just now wasn't entirely sincere.
Thinking that he was fooled by Tom's act of false remorse, Bai Song clenched his fists again! Yes, his fists were clenched tightly!
But... Bai Song thought about it and decided to let it go. He had just clenched his fists a moment ago, and now he was feeling soft again.
"Sigh, let's continue on."
Objective 1: Summon a Servant 1/1 (Completed)
Objective 2: Participate in a special racing competition 0/1
Objective 3: ???
"Racing? What on earth is this?" Bai Song was surprised when he saw the newly updated Objective 2. He couldn't connect saving the world with racing. He knew little about racing, although he was quite familiar with online racing games.
"I wonder where I can find a place for racing. This is so...?" As Bai Song was complaining, he suddenly remembered that the billboard he had crashed into earlier was actually an advertisement for a racing event.
Bai Song approached the billboard and carefully examined the advertisement that he had hit twice in a row. What caught his eye was indeed an advertisement related to racing. Considering that the objective popped up right after he crashed into the 'billboard,' it was evident that the two were directly related.
"Wow, could it be that this objective needs to be triggered?"
Realizing this, Bai Song felt regret for wasting yesterday at home. If he had known about this objective, he would have triggered it with ease by wandering around with Xia Ji.
"Let's sign up first." As the advertisement mentioned, he could use the free coupon to sign up.
Bai Song took out the free coupon, and a sign-up window appeared. He clicked the sign-up button.
"Hello, please do not sign up repeatedly. This card is invalid."
Bai Song saw this and a few question marks popped up in his mind. Meanwhile, he noticed Jerry holding a card similar to itself and randomly pressing something on it. Upon closer inspection, Bai Song realized that the card was a free coupon!
"Huh? Jerry, where did you get the free coupon?!"
