Arc 2: Part 0 - Brother, the Foodie
She only had 50,000 points, which was obviously not enough. Hence, that item was shaded gray.
Her gaze dimmed slightly, but she didn't voice her thoughts. Instead, she continued to look further down the list.
- Weapon Random Draw Ticket, priced at 10,000 points per ticket.
- Detox Card (Experience Card), priced at 10,000 points.
- Beauty Card (Experience Card), priced at 10,000 points.
- God Chef Card (Experience Card), priced at 50,000 points.
- Talent Card (Experience Card), priced at 100,000 points.
- Mind-reading Card (Experience Card), priced at 100,000 points.
- Resurrection Card (Experience Card), priced at 1 million points.
Besides the diverse assortment of cards, there was a separate column titled "Portable Space (Upgradeable)."
For a Basic Portable Space - with a volume of one cubic meter - the price was set at 80,000 points.
In addition, there were two time-limited and quantity-limited purchase categories:
- Newbie Grab Bag: includes Random Weapon Discount Coupon, Beauty Card, Book Saint Card, Talent Card, Level 1 Portable Space. Price: 100,000 points.
- Random Limited Purchase Special Offer Bag: includes Portable Space Upgrade Ticket, Weapon of Choice Discount Coupon, Resurrection Card. Price: 880,000 points.
Quickly doing the math, Tong Su realized that these two packages indeed offered extreme value. However, she not only didn't have enough points, but she also had to save up for "Resurrection". Therefore, she simply couldn't afford to spend frivolously.
"Miss, you currently have 50,000 points. Do you need to make any purchases?" asked System 666.
"No need, prepare to enter the next task world." Tong Su replied.
"But wait, Miss, you still have a newbie discount package. Would you like to open it?" said 666 hurriedly.
Thinking for a moment, Tong Su responded, "Alright, open it. What's inside?"
"Ding, ding, ding! The discount package is opening now!"
666 specially created an brilliant game gift box opening effect, and matched it with a flashy and flamboyant sound effect using its electronic voice.
"Congratulations, Miss! You have received: 1 God Chef Card; 1 Detox Card; and 1 Random Weapon Draw Ticket! The weapon ticket is automatically used, please receive it~"
She saw a soft white light appear in the void. The twinkling light resonated with her heartbeat and seemed to call to her, connected by her very lifeblood. An inexplicable sense of anticipation welled up in Tong Su's heart. Unconsciously, she reached out, extending her hand into the white light and slowly clenching it.
"The first weapon usually drawn is always the most formidable, super powerful, and universally capable legendary weapon! Come on, look at what you've got!" encouraged 666.
The white light dissipated.
Tong Su opened her palm.
"..."
A virtual bead of cold sweat dripped from 666's forehead, its face sounding like a drumbeat.
"Emmm, it looks very sharp!" it desperately tried to salvage the situation, determined to avoid an awkward silence, "After all, it’s free of charge and can be reused many times. Quite a bargain haha..."
A twitch appeared at the corner of Tong Su's eyes.
Wasn't this attempt to gloss over things even more awkward?
What she held from the white light was an arrowhead.
Description:
A rusty, badly damaged arrowhead that had lost its shaft and bow, rendered entirely useless.
Was this the "most formidable, super powerful, universally capable, legendary weapon" that 666 spoke of?
Unlucky gamers would say, you're thinking too much!
"Forget it, take me into the next world," Tong Su said without too much regret. She just shook her head in resignation, placed the arrowhead, God Chef Card, and Detox Card together, and tossed it into the system backpack.
"Alright, we are ready to teleport, Miss!" declared 666.

"Xiao Bai Zhu! You reckless, shameless creature, daring to climb onto his lordship's bed. Are you seeking death?”
Barely regaining consciousness, Tong Su immediately heard the mocking and contemptuous voices around her.
Countless blows rained down on her body, the intense pain making her wish she could pass out immediately.
