Chapter 27 27. So what is our relationship now?
After explaining the contents of the transaction to Shen Jinwen, Xu Zhi was not in a hurry to leave.
Now that Shen Jinwen's attitude has been tested, she can discuss some things with him.
"Do you know the Nanshan villa area?" she asked.
Shen Jinwen nodded: "I know."
"How far is it from us?"
Hearing Xu Zhi's question, Shen Jinwen's expression changed slightly, "Do you want to go there?"
Xu Zhi shook his head. : "No, I'm just asking."
Shen Jinwen: "Oh, it's still a bit far. It usually takes about forty minutes by car. It's in the south of the city ecological zone."
That's just normal. Under the current situation, we can't go in the city. , we have to take a detour, and we can’t get there in less than an hour.
It seems that it is temporarily out of reach unless you randomly come there again.
Xu Zhi stopped asking questions about the Nanshan villa area. Seeing that it was almost time, he was ready to say goodbye and leave.
Before leaving, Shen Jinwen stopped her and asked a question: "I'm going to look for tools to contact my companions, such as walkie-talkies. Do you need one?" This was actually a bit suggestive, probably similar to Yu
: Do you want to be my teammate?
Xu Zhi thought that Shen Jinwen was quite reserved when speaking, so she smiled and nodded: "Of course, we can't just guess whether the other person is at home every time, right?"
Shen Jinwen looks cool, like that This kind of person is very cold and difficult to get close to, but when she heard Xu Zhi's answer, a smile appeared on her usually calm face, and she became much closer in an instant.
Xu Zhi knew that this was because they had reached a tacit "companion agreement".
On the way home, Xu Zhi was still thinking, it's true that people can't be judged by their appearance. After contacting Shen Jinwen, his personality was not as inaccessible as his appearance. Instead, he was silent and had a hint of well-behavedness. She didn't know if she should This is how you describe a girl who is a few years older than you, but it feels like this.
Although when you don't know each other, you are alert enough and won't rely on others, so you can live independently even in a place like this. But after you get to know you, you are surprisingly easy to talk to, and even think that you are a trustworthy person. She took the initiative to show her kindness, and even her aggression was only shown when they first met.
Xu Zhi likes teammates who are obedient and don't have too many opinions, because she used to always listen to other people's opinions, but now naturally she doesn't want to listen to anyone's opinions anymore.
I didn't have to wait long after I got home, and the upgrade of the game console was completed.
Xu Zhi watched the two-hour progress bar reach the last point with difficulty, and then the screen he saw when he picked up the game console for the first time reappeared on the screen.
A gloomy sky made of pixels, with a black sun hanging high in the sky. Pollution was born from the sun, turning into liquid and falling into the mortal world.
A familiar line of narration emerged from the center of the screen.
【Game update completed. ]
[Click to view the update announcement. 】
Xu Zhi clicked OK, and then the update announcement popped up.
[The content of this game upgrade is as follows:
1: Optimize the idle setting. After the update, the idle time is no longer specified, and the instructions can be changed at any time and the family members can be recalled at any time.
2: The improvement brought to you by the Familia every time it is upgraded has increased.
Three: Add a suggestion box function. If you have any dissatisfaction with the game in the future, you can use the suggestion box to make comments, and the game will be rectified. 】
There are only three updates, but Xu Zhi was a little surprised when he saw them.
Why do you feel so obedient in this game?
She remembered that she had just complained about the stiffness of the on-hook function for a few days, and it was immediately optimized and a suggestion box function was added.
What's more important is the second one. The improvement brought by the family upgrade has increased. This update makes Xu Zhi feel a little weird. She has always been curious about the physical enhancements provided to her by the Familia after upgrading. Where did the energy come from?
The family members themselves? Or the game itself?
So does this update mean that the game is squeezing herself or the family members are providing her with help?
Does this game treat you as an ancestor?
He gave her tips on every detail, told her secrets that were difficult for ordinary people to know without hesitation, and provided her with both mental and physical help. Now she immediately changes her opinion whenever she has one.
Moreover, he has never asked for anything from her, nor has he ever harmed her.
"What's going on?"
Xu Zhi even began to wonder if there was some huge conspiracy. For example, she was a domestic animal raised by the game console. After fattening her up, the game console would reveal its truest purpose and kill her. Category.
But...who is the bad person to raise? Raise her as a weak person at the beginning?
Wouldn't anyone be better than her?
She didn't even have the ability to awaken on her own, she still got it by eating cores!
Thinking of autonomous awakening, Xu Zhi paused.
The game console's overly "flattery" behavior and the "coincidence" that it started to level up right after she ate the black fruit gave her some bold ideas.
But Xu Zhi subconsciously rejected the conjecture in her mind. After all, this was really weird. Although the game console appeared very suddenly, she did not have any hallucinations at the time, nor did she dream like Shen Jinwen, and she did not feel anything after that. No matter how extraordinary she is, she is still an ordinary person.
So the game console shouldn't be her extraordinary ability, otherwise why wouldn't she feel anything at all?
After awakening [Peeping Eyes], she clearly felt that there was a difference in her progression from ordinary people to extraordinary beings.
But not when it came to getting the console.
So this bold idea was quickly rejected by Xu Zhi after it appeared.
"What else could it be?"
Xu Zhi sighed, feeling that he really couldn't figure out why the game console "fancy" her.
But no matter what, this is the only thing she can hold onto at the moment, and the game console has performed well so far. She will not give up this tool that can make her stronger.
But for now, let her experience how much improvement the family upgrade can bring to her after the update.
Xu Zhi took out the remaining three black fruits from the warehouse, fed one to Gouzi and one to Xiaoyi.
There is one left and she plans to see how much Xiao Yi can digest this time. If she can absorb enough evolution points, she will give it to Xiao Yi.
After all, her current goal is to raise a level 20 dependent as soon as possible.
Moreover, with two fruits, she can get two opportunities to extract the characteristics of the family members, which is also a great improvement for her.
Seeing the two family members falling into a deep sleep after eating the fruit, Xu Zhi was still a little worried.
Obviously, the family members will definitely improve after eating the fruit, why doesn't she herself?
She neither felt that the extraordinary energy in her body had increased, nor did she feel that the [Peeping Eyes] had been upgraded, nor did she feel any additional extraordinary abilities!
The only change is that the game has been upgraded, which is hard not to make her think too much!
"So what is your relationship with me?"
The girl said to herself in distress while holding the game console.
When I was thinking about the title of this chapter, I looked at the ending and suddenly thought of this sentence. I couldn't help but amused myself for a moment.
(So actually the title of this chapter has nothing to do with the text)
(End of this chapter)
