Chapter 827 (Lacking Sentiment)
Walking down the street, Ye Hua couldn’t find anything delicious to eat. He regretted not bringing Gorefiend along with him. After all, only the Gorefiend could create unique flavours, or perhaps some dumplings, steamed dumplings, chicken broth, seaweed soup—just thinking about it made his mouth water.
“Oh, by the way, Daji, can you make breakfast?” Ye Hua suddenly remembered he had a maid behind him, and she was a versatile person.
Finally receiving an order from her master, Daji was quite happy. “Master, Daji can make breakfast, you can request anything.”
“Oh, can you make deep-fried dough sticks rolled in a thin pancake with eggs and ham?”
Upon hearing her master’s request, Daji was dumbfounded! She had studied various skills and knowledge just to serve her master!
But now, her master had asked for something she didn’t know how to make! She was utterly clueless! Embarrassment… a sense of shame crept over Daji, and tears welled up in her eyes beneath her veil.
“Master, Daji doesn’t know how to make what you’re asking for. Please, grant me death, Daji can’t face you anymore,” she said in shame.
Ye Hua: “…”
Daji was a great servant, but she took things too seriously. It was no big deal.
“Don’t keep saying you want to die. If you don’t know, just learn. I won’t blame you,” Ye Hua said lightly, patting Daji’s head before continuing to walk forward.
Daji stared at her master’s back, surprised that her master didn’t blame her and even consoled her. She couldn’t believe how good her master was. It was a gift from heaven, and her master had just patted her head again and told her to learn.
In her heart, Daji made a silent vow to learn everything and serve her master well. The next time her master asked, she would happily provide an answer.
She gathered her spirits and hurried to catch up with her master, following respectfully behind and gazing up at his broad shoulders and towering figure.
At a small stall nearby, Feng Yun was having a bowl of porridge, but his expression was ferocious.
He had overheard their conversation! His orange card, Daji, had actually asked his new master for death just because she didn’t know how to make deep-fried dough sticks rolled in a thin pancake with eggs and ham!
‘She is truly despicable, grovelling before that man. When I became powerful, he would make them pay!’
‘Wait, deep-fried dough sticks rolled in a thin pancake?’
‘How did this man know about deep-fried dough sticks rolled in a thin pancake ? With eggs and ham…’
‘Could it be!!!’
Feng Yun opened his mouth slightly, wondering if this man was like him, a person who had been reborn!
If that were the case, it would make sense!
This man must also have a system, and he had used it to interfere with Feng Yun’s system. Otherwise, why would the countdown from several hours suddenly become one minute? It must be him playing tricks!
Sabotaging his system to make Daji recognize him as her master! This man was truly despicable! Feng Yun vowed to avenge this grudge; he wouldn’t spare him just because they were from the same hometown.
As the saying goes, when people from the same hometown meet, they become two-faced.
However, Feng Yun was also pondering another matter. Why wasn’t he the only reborn person? Could there be many others like him in this Sapphire Continent?
That would be highly unusual, right? A group transmigration?
If that were true, he needed to be more cautious.
“System, come out and explain to me. Are there many systems like yours?” Feng Yun asked with a deep voice, as if he had never asked such a question before.
“Master, of course, there are many systems.”
“What?! Why didn’t you tell me earlier?” Feng Yun exclaimed in frustration. ‘If I had known earlier, I would have been more vigilant. How could such a thing happen?’
“Master, you didn’t ask either,” Feng Yun felt like he would be driven mad by the system sooner or later, just like that emperor.
“Explain it to me,” Feng Yun asked with a heavy tone.
“Master, the system selects hosts and grants them benefits to fulfil their wishes,” the system replied.
“What about you? What kind of system are you, and is there any distinction in versions?” Feng Yun inquired.
“Master, there’s no distinction in levels, but there are different versions. The higher the upgraded version, the more powerful it becomes. In the system world, there’s only one system that has reached the highest version, which is the ultimate hybrid 9.0 version,” the system said with infinite admiration.
Feng Yun felt a weight in his heart when he heard this. There was actually a highest version, and could it be that man?
“Do you know who the host is?” Feng Yun asked.
“Master, that information is confidential.”
“What version are you right now?”
“Master, I am currently the 2.0 version.”
Feng Yun thought the 2.0 version seemed decent, at least it wasn’t the primitive 1.0 version.
“What about that highest version?” Feng Yun was curious.
“That is the ultimate hybrid 9.0 version,” the system said excitedly.
However, as the master, Feng Yun wasn’t excited at all. The ultimate hybrid 9.0 version… seriously?!
“What are its capabilities?”
“Items from the shop can be used freely without any cost,” the system replied.
Feng Yun got excited now. Using items freely without any cost.
‘Doesn’t that mean I can do unlimited ten consecutive draws for myself? I won’t be afraid of not getting an orange card anymore!’
Feng Yun asked eagerly, “How can one upgrade to that level?”
“Master, I am currently the 2.0 version. After upgrading, it becomes the Enhanced 2.0 version, then it’s the Enhanced Max 2.0 version, followed by the Top 2.0 version, then the Hybrid 2.0 version, and after that, the Ultimate 2.0 version. Finally, it’s the Ultimate Hybrid 2.0 version, and then it goes to 3.0, and so on,” the system explained.
Hearing this, Feng Yun felt like his life had no peak, no climax.
“How did others reach the Ultimate Hybrid 9.0 version?” Feng Yun couldn’t understand why.
“Master, there’s a rumour in the system world that this system latched up to someone powerful, so it was directly upgraded to the highest level,” the system whispered.
Feng Yun widened his eyes in shock and exclaimed, “Damn it! Did this system latch up to someone, or did the whole system world have to latch up?!”
“Well… I don’t know about that, Master. You should focus on nurturing your cards for now and take it slow,” the system advised.
“I… I can’t believe this!” Feng Yun didn’t know what else to say, so he could only express his feelings with a heartfelt exclamation.
Even the system world was so practical, they had to latch up to succeed. It completely shattered his worldview. It was just too lacking in sentiment.
Looking at the white card he had summoned, which was still a child and had a runny nose… oh God, he wanted to die.
“Master, I’m still hungry,” the little one looked at his master pitifully, as if to say, “If you don’t feed me, I’m going to cry…”
Feng Yun felt utterly hopeless. ‘Besides eating… what else can you do?!’
