Chapter 152: Chapter 152: Chosen One Chapter 152: Chapter 152: Chosen One Su Jiyai swore if the system answered with a ‘yes’ she would use all of her ti to find the pot and the mirror.
The system was silent for a mont before responding.
[Host, you are correct.
The pot with the true property to multiply is indeed present in this world.
However, I must strongly advise against harboring any irrational thoughts.
If you take the pot, the balance of resources in this dinsion will collapse.
Without it, humanity here will not survive the impending disasters, and this world will fall into chaos.
Please reconsider.] Su Jiyai’s eyes widened beneath her veil.
She hadn’t expected the system to confirm her wild guess, and for a mont, the temptation to find and take the pot gnawed at her.
Though the system can multiply things, it is just on the surface.
The reality was system could only buy items from other universes, it wasn’t a multiplying system in reality.
That was what Su Jiyai had concluded from the information she got through the system.
She wanted a real multiplying system or artifacts.
But as the system’s warning sank in, guilt and sha replaced the greed that had flared up within her.
She had been so focused on gaining more power and securing advantages for herself that she had montarily disregarded the fate of an entire world.
If she took that pot, millions of lives would be destroyed.
They would never survive the apocalypse without the resources it provided.
Su Jiyai sighed deeply, pulling herself out of her thoughts.
She wasn’t soone who would sacrifice an entire world for her own benefit.
“You’re right,” she whispered to the system, feeling a sense of regret wash over her.
“I was being reckless.
I won’t take it.” [It is good that you understand, Host.
So things, no matter how valuable, are not worth the cost.] The vendor noticed Su Jiyai’s brief pause and raised an eyebrow, curious about her sudden change in deanor.
“You alright there?
You zoned out for a mont.” Su Jiyai shook off the lingering thoughts and quickly refocused.
“Just considering your apocalypse joke,” she said dryly.
Suddenly she paused and said, “Um…I would advise you to prepare so extra food for the upcoming year.
I have heard from Dad who is a weather forecaster that next year there might be so extre weather conditions coming.
You know, heat waves, droughts, that kind of thing,” Su Jiyai said, her voice casual but her warning seriously.
The vendor looked at her skeptically but then shrugged.
“Well, I don’t know about all that, but I’ll stock up just in case.
Never hurts to be prepared, right?” Su Jiyai offered a faint smile beneath her veil, nodding.
“Exactly.” [Host, are you going to warn everyone?] “Do I have ti for that?” Su Jiyai mocked.
“Anyways, I will tell all those people who will help even the slightest bit.” [Ding!
Congratulations to the host for triggering a hidden mission.
Warn the chosen one about the impending doom.
Reward: Hint for the arrival of extre heat.
Hint on how to cure Qin Feng’s charred skin.] “What?” Su Jiyai was stunned.
Too much information was dumped on her.
First was the strange hidden mission.
Till now Su Jiyai never triggered any hidden mission.
It was her first ti triggering sothing so strange.
And what does chosen one even an?
The hero of the world?
[Host, there is no such thing as the hero of the world.
The chosen one ans an individual with the unique ability or fate tied to surviving and helping rebuild this world after the impending apocalypse.
They are crucial to the future stability of this dinsion.
They aren’t heroes.
They act as pillars, a kind of rcy given to the human.] rcy?
Su Jiyai’s eyes turned dazed as she asked, “So am I too a chosen one?
rcy given to humans?” [Host, please don’t overthink.
You aren’t the chosen one.] Su Jiyai: “…” Was that an insult or…truth She frowned beneath her veil, her mind racing with questions.
“What about the first reward?
What is the hint for the arrival of extre heat?
So it was indeed true that soone is…ahh!” A wave of shockwave passed in Su Jiyai’s mind, making her forget about the statent.
Su Jiyai gritted her teeth but didn’t continue to ask.
She was running low on ti, it wasn’t the right ti to argue against the system.
For now, hoarding the supplies and completing the task was more important.
Taking a deep breath Su Jiyai changed the topic, “Scan the cooling tech at Stall 22.
I need sothing reliable for the heat back in my dinsion.” [Scanning… Stall 22 carries heat-resistant suits and cooling devices suitable for high-temperature environnts.
Recomnded items include the Solar Shield Suit, rated for extre heat exposure up to 60°C, and the Ice Core Unit watches, a wearable cooling device that can regulate body temperature for up to 12 hours.] “Sounds perfect,” Su Jiyai muttered as she neared the stall.
[But host don’t we already have the sun proof cloak, why do you need all of these items?] “Can these items be multiplied?” Su Jiyai asked instead of answering the question.
She was pretty upset with the system’s repeated thod of keeping her mouth shut.
[Yes host.
But you have still not answered yet.] “What?
You will electrocute again if I don’t answer you?” Su Jiyai taunted.
The system remained silent.
Su Jiyai gritted her teeth and explained, “Sunproof cloaks are too expensive.
Normal citizens could never afford 1 million federal coins.
I am thinking of opening a trade channel with other bases.
If I want to help others, keep my profit, and don’t want to degrade the quality of items, I have to find the best alternatives.
Now tell , if I manage to obtain the suit and watch for how much those can be sold.” Though she was the host of the system, there were certain rules she couldn’t cross.
One of them was profit margins.
She can’t sell items for less price compared to the price set by the system.
