Chapter 4
The Shop and Mission
Tang Susu immediately exited the backpack function and saw the “Shop” button on the main page of the system.
She eagerly opened it and was greeted with a dazzling array of items—great strength pills, muscle regeneration pills, nutrient solutions, flying darts, daggers, famous swords, cars, cannons, and bulletproof vests.
There were even interstellar weapons like mechas, battleships, and spaceships. However, they were also very expensive.
There was also a search bar on it. Tang Susu entered “Umbrella,” and countless corresponding products instantly appeared.
Other than the ones that were exactly the same as the ones from the 21st century, there were even more advanced and convenient ones that were developed in space. They had a myriad of functions that almost blinded her eyes.
It was the same for other things. From ancient times to the distant galaxy, there were items that blew her imagination. There was nothing that this mall didn’t have.
“Why are some of the products grayed out?”
[These goods are supplied from high-tier planets. They can only be purchased after the system has reached a certain rank.]
At this time, Tang Susu noticed that there were three icons on the upper right corner of the screen, which were “wealth,” “points,” and “rank.”
[Wealth is the host’s property, which are valuable items that the system mentioned before. The host needs to collect or earn it to buy items from the store and to replenish the system’s energy.]
[Points are awarded to the host for completing the missions issued by the system. They can be used to upgrade themselves and the system. After the system is upgraded, the store will expand, and its abilities will increase.]
Sure enough, Tang Susu saw the “Mission” button at the bottom of the navigation bar. She clicked on it and found three “Novice Missions.”
[These missions are also created according to the host’s rank. The higher the rank, the more missions there would be and the more difficult they would be. The missions are divided into free missions and compulsory missions, and the difficulty will gradually increase from C, B, A, S, SS, SSS.]
Nonetheless, Tang Su knew that nothing came easy. “What if you don’t want to carry out the compulsory mission?”
[Points will be deducted. If all the points are deducted, the host’s lifespan will also be deducted.]
Tang Su said, “… is it too late to unbind you now?”
008’s voice trembled when he saw the sweet smile on her face. [The rank is the host’s combat level. -5 means that your body is very weak.]
[Host, you have congenital heart disease as you were not able to fully develop in the womb as long as your twin brothers. That’s why you need to complete missions as soon as possible to level up, otherwise it will be difficult to survive in the apocalypse.]
Tang Su’s cat-like eyes darkened.
In the game, the female supporting character suffered from serious congenital heart disease and was doted on and protected by her family. She developed an arrogant and overbearing personality and would not give up until she got what she wanted.
The female lead, Ying Chengya, lived next door to their house. She grew up with the supporting character, and the two families had a good relationship.
In junior high school, the female lead’s parents died in a car accident, and the insurance company compensated her with a huge sum of money. In addition, she was also a nice person. Her studies and abilities were better than the female supporting character, which made the female supporting character very unhappy.
Fortunately, the family and love that the supporting female character had was something that the female lead couldn’t envy. The two of them maintained a lukewarm relationship until the end of the world.
The supporting female characters felt that the people around them had all turned to the female lead and even became strong, which completely ignited the flames of jealousy in them.
In contrast, the supporting character’s family was at the lowest level of ordinary people in the apocalypse, devoid of any evolved abilities.
With the evolution of zombies, the reduction of resources, the emergence of all kinds of ability users and mutants, as well as the female supporting characters who didn’t know how dire the situation was, the family’s life was extremely difficult.
In the end, she actually ended up dying without a proper burial and was spurned by everyone!
Tang Susu took a deep breath. “You can cure my illness if I complete missions and level up?”
[A normal person’s rank is 0, and every additional 100 points and you will increase by one rank. As long as the host accumulates 500 points from completing missions, you’ll be able to get rid of all diseases.]
Tang Susu looked at the three unfinished Novice missions—investigate, warn, stockpile.
It was closely related to her current state. Even without these missions, she would still do them. This was equivalent to killing two birds with one stone. This was perfect!
