Chapter 1059 Concealment of the gluttonous system
When he heard that the Taotie system had to agree to take the next task, he could tell himself how to wake up Xia Yurou, Lin Tian thought for a little while and guessed that it should be a task about Zixia Sword.
Who knew that he just asked for confirmation. After hearing this, Taotie system was silent for a long time and said to his surprise:
"Lin Tian, it doesn't matter if you don't want to. I will still tell you how to wake up Xia Yurou, so you don't have to feel embarrassed."
The words of the Taotie system made Lin Tian feel very strange. He couldn't help but look at it carefully in his consciousness.
Although the Taotie system is still a light ball, and it has no facial features at all, so it can't see any expressions it will have.
Although its sound, compared with the first time when it came into contact with it, it was not known whether it was because after all, after being together for so long, Lin Tian felt that the Taotie system now seemed to have less mechanical coldness.
Of course, its sound still makes people feel stiff without any emotion or emotion, but...
It was such a light ball without any changes in facial features and expressions, and such a voice without any emotion when speaking, Lin Tian felt that in those two sentences just now, there was a feeling of sadness.
"Don't keep staring at me like this. Even if I'm not a human, I feel uncomfortable." The Taotie system protested Lin Tian's long-term gaze.
"I am willing to accept this task, but I also have a condition." Lin Tian turned his head, thought for a while, and said.
"What conditions?" Taotie system asked quickly, seemingly impatient.
"Tell me, what's going on?" Lin Tian asked.
"Lin Tian, I can feel that I am about to evolve. I feel that I can feel more human emotions now. Perhaps because of this, it makes me feel very strange."
"Also, you know, I also need more energy for evolution, and you need to help me with these." said the Taotie system.
This time, compared to Lin Tian's curious question about what happened to the Taotie system last time, it ignored Lin Tian and actually said it happily. Lin Tian had to sigh that even a machine from the future is like a human being, speaking and doing things still requires benefits or conditions to drive it.
However, he didn't bother to sigh, because what Lin Tian needed was not the answer at all, because of this abnormality in the Taotie system, he could guess.
Lin Tian probably had a thought in his mind. He felt that based on his personal feelings for so long, the Taotie system should be set up, and the more evolved, the more people became richer they were.
"Of course, I care about you very much. You are a little different from before. I care about you, right?" Lin Tian wanted to scratch his head, but found that he was still immersed in his consciousness, so he had to say directly.
"However, what I want to ask is about this task."
"What the hell is it a task, I feel like it's this task, which arouses something about you, I don't know how to describe it."
"But, although you are a mechanical machine, you are essentially just an energy group. Of course, I don't mean to look down on you." Lin Tian said a little incoherently.
"You don't have to be so afraid of offending me, and I won't take revenge on you. Besides, I'm not as stingy as you humans and will hold grudges." said the Taotie system.
Lin Tian laughed embarrassedly. At the critical moment of saving people, Lin Tian was indeed afraid that something would make the system unhappy, because before he knew it, Xia Yurou was already a very important person to Lin Tian. He didn't want her to have any accidents due to her negligence.
"I feel that if you were a human being, you would be like the story behind that mission, which made you feel uneasy, as if you were a heart-wrenching illness, and you had to complete it." Lin Tian thought for a while, made a metaphor, and described it.
"So, I'm willing to accept this task anyway. Although you say it will be dangerous, it will get me into unknown trouble."
"But, no matter what, my future feels like it's already weird enough and unfathomable. I feel like I'm like a piece of Tang Monk's flesh after breaking through the fusion realm. Everyone wants to eat me, but I haven't protected me yet."
"Hey, when it comes to Tang Monk Sun Wukong, I suddenly realized that I have four disciples now, but I feel that they are incomparable. They are all lacking in training, so I am almost the same for protecting them." Lin Tian said.
"Lin Tian, you're out of touch..." said the Taotie system.
"Oh, yes...whether I just said it, yes, my future is difficult enough anyway, so I'm not afraid of adding more dangers, so I took on this task."
"However, I'm very curious. What kind of story is hidden behind that sword that makes you so worried. I really want to know." Curious baby Lin Tian asked.
"Lin Tian, thank you." Taotie System knew that Lin Tian said this so that it would not feel as if he was threatening him to accept the task.
This guy is not only a warm man like a central air conditioner to women, but also so considerate to a light ball machine.
"But, Lin Tian, it's not that I don't want to tell you, but that I can't tell you the answer."
"Because, even I don't know what story is hidden behind it." said the Taotie system.
"No? Then how do you judge that it hides great danger? And I obviously feel that it was the appearance of Zixia Sword that made you different." Lin Tian felt strange.
"I told you that the Zixia Sword was once a Horcrux, and its status and strength were not low."
"Those who can become Horcruxes have their own independent consciousness and can even transform into shapes. Of course, even if they become humans, they are just very illusory figures."
"Although Zixia Sword was knocked back to its former spiritual weapon state because of something I don't know, there is still a wisp of residual soul."
"That residual soul is very weak, just like the breath of a person who is dying, and can dissipate at any time."
"But, I felt a feeling of pain and reluctance in it, with anger and hope. Even after a thousand years, it still cannot be allowed to die."
"You know, I need ancient artifacts and other things very much. It is the special aura left on those things that can make me evolve."
"So, at the beginning I asked you to dig it out, just sense its breath and want to swallow it."
"But after you dug it out, I found that the complex and emotional aura it revealed actually made me feel... hallucinated." When Taotie System said this, it seemed a little hesitant, as if it felt incredible.
"Alchemy? What hallucinations?" Lin Tian was also surprised. It was a bit incredible that it could actually make a machine have a feeling that only humans could have.
"I felt like I saw a woman's crying face. I couldn't see that face clearly, it was very blurry, but I could clearly feel the tears of tears on her face and her heartbroken emotions."
"What's even more strange is that those tears seemed to be able to see me, just staring at me with resentment and helplessness."
"That look suddenly made me feel an extremely powerful energy."
"I can feel that energy is exactly what I need."
"You know, the more I evolve later, the more energy I need, it's not a small number. Humans and ancient artifacts carry that kind of energy, but generally speaking, it's not too much for me, so I can only accumulate slowly."
"And, because of the program setting, I cannot automatically obtain them. I can only passively based on the host's actions, and then distribute tasks to you to generate mutual benefit."
"But that energy is different. I can feel it is very abundant and powerful. If I can swallow it, I will definitely be able to go directly to the next level without waiting for a long time and slowly accumulate it."
"The more I reach now, the more I feel that as your strength and cultivation improve, as my upgrade requires more energy, and if I take it slowly as before, I may not be able to successfully upgrade in the past ten years." said the Taotie system.
Lin Tian understood this point as soon as he heard it. No wonder a very obvious change is that the frequency of tasks deployed by the system is much less than before.
It turns out that if that task is not difficult for Lin Tian, it will prove that the energy body in it may not be enough for the system to plug into the teeth and can be ignored directly.
"Lin Tian, what you may not know is that my demand for energy is not only for upgrading. Those energy is also for me to maintain a state of continued existence. If I cannot upgrade for too long, I will disappear."
"Of course, I can also feel that if you take me to complete this, you will definitely gain something in the process."
"I originally thought, as before, to automatically convert the income of that energy into a supernatural power point, and then set up a task for you."
"But, I found that I could not measure the ability point to be replaced. I thought about it for a long time, and except for the fault factor of my own, the only explanation I could think of is that it is too dangerous for you to convert."
"So... Lin Tian, you know now. In essence, according to the settings, it shouldn't have this task at all."
"Because it can be said that it is entirely caused by my selfish desires."
"So, like I said to you, so you can choose to accept it, or not."
The Taotie system was silent for a moment, and suddenly said:
"Forget it, Lin Tian, forget what I said to you."
