Chapter 3373: That You’re Female
Chapter 3373: That You’re Female
Ning Shu sighed and spoke in a serious tone. “This is the most I can help you.”
“Could that person be you?” The qipao man looked at Ning Shu.
“What do you feel when you look at me?” Ning Shu asked.
The qipao man: “That you’re female.”
Ning Shu: …
Go to hell.
She couldn’t be bothered to keep bickering with this thirsty qipao man. She said to 2333, “Let’s go check out the City of Water.”
For better or for worse, she was its city lord now.
Ning Shu appeared in the sky above the City of Water’s city lord mansion and slowly descended.
The mansion was empty.
She wandered around the area, then looked up at the barrier overhead.
It was only now that she realized the City of Water’s barrier was actually a curtain of water.
With a wave of her hand, countless droplets from the ground floated up, merging with the barrier.
The barrier thickened, becoming sturdier.
Ning Shu stepped outside the barrier, where the turbulent power of the water ordinance raged.
She walked through the air, inspecting the entire city.
She checked for any vulnerabilities that needed fixing. Since she had accepted this position, she had to take responsibility for the city.
Plus, there was the matter of the city’s tax revenue.
Merit and faith energy were the main components of tax income.
With enough tax revenue, she could accumulate merit and faith power to purchase world origins.
She could also buy whatever she needed. The auction house prices were ridiculous, and if she wanted something, she needed enough capital to afford it without struggling.
For a strong individual, resources would only continue to increase.
After finishing these tasks, Ning Shu told 2333 she wanted to return to the system space.
When she returned, 2333 congratulated her. “Congratulations on becoming an ordinance embodiment! Now, you have a steady stream of faith and merit power.”
“Congratulations to you too,” Ning Shu said with a smile.
“What’s there to congratulate me for? I get nothing out of this.” 2333 stretched out his words.
Ning Shu: …
2333 was sulking again.
“Do you want to take on a system task?” 2333 asked.
Ning Shu flopped onto the sofa. “You’re low on energy again?”
“Yes,” 2333 said matter-of-factly.
Ning Shu felt like she had already completed quite a few system tasks.
Yet, 2333 always seemed to be in a state of energy deficiency.
It was like he was perpetually hungry.
2333 didn’t pressure her into taking a task and instead said, “Don’t think that becoming an ordinance embodiment means you’ve reached the pinnacle of life. This can be a treasure, but it can also bring disaster.”
Ning Shu had already sensed this when she saw the school doctor erase two ordinance embodiments.
Ordinances had imprints, and even if a person died, their imprint remained. That meant it could be taken by someone else.
“As long as you have an ordinance Imprint, you are an ordinance embodiment. Be careful—other task-takers might target you.”
Ning Shu asked, “Can ordinance imprints be transferred to someone else?”
“No. Once it’s engraved into the soul, it only separates when the person dies,” 2333 explained.
That was kind of dangerous.
The school doctor had straightforwardly crushed the two ordinance imprints. That was heartbreaking to watch.
