Chapter 2: The System Appears
Chapter 2: The System Appears
Just as Zhang Lei was shouting until his throat was dry, a crisp notification sound suddenly rang in his mind: "Ding, congratulations to the host for transmigrating to the parallel world of Love in the Courtyard."
Upon hearing the voice, Zhang Lei was overjoyed, almost jumping for joy. He immediately shouted in his mind, "System! Brother System! Master System! You've finally arrived! Quick, quick, tell me what abilities you have!"
The system's voice sounded again, still that emotionless, mechanical tone: "Ding, this system is the Monthly Daily Check-in System."
Zhang Lei was so shocked that his mouth dropped open, and he asked incredulously, "What? A daily check-in system? And monthly? System, don't other transmigrated systems require daily check-ins? Are you slacking off?"
He waited for a long time, but there was no response from the system in his mind. Zhang Lei rolled his eyes and muttered speechlessly, "Well, another emotionless human-machine system."
At this moment, Zhang Lei remembered something and quickly asked in his mind, "System, system, everyone else has a newbie gift pack, where's mine?"
He had barely finished thinking to himself when the system's voice rang out precisely on time: "Ding! Congratulations, host, you have received a newbie gift pack. Would you like to claim it?"
Zhang Lei jumped up excitedly, shouting at the top of his lungs, "Okay! Get it, get it now!"
Immediately afterwards, system notifications rang continuously in his mind:
"Ding! Congratulations, host, you have obtained a personal space of 10 square kilometers (please explore its functions on your own)."
"Ding! Congratulations, host, you have obtained the power of ten pillars."
"Ding! Congratulations, host, you have obtained a pair of golden kidneys."
"Ding! Congratulations, host, you have acquired the skill 'Invincible Golden Spear' (those who know, know)."
"Ding! Congratulations, host, you have acquired the Fishing Mastery skill."
"Ding! Congratulations, host, you have obtained the maximum level of hunting skills."
"Ding! Congratulations, host, you have acquired the skill 'Infertility Kick'. (This skill, once activated, will cause the loss of all male fertility. Bonus description:)"
1. If a man is struck by this foot in the genitals, he will suffer from impotence and weakness, and will never be able to achieve an erection again. If a woman is struck by this foot, she will be free from unexplained pain for seven days. Furthermore, those struck by this foot in the genitals will experience no pain or itching.
2. For those in other parts of the body, the pain in this foot is excruciating—ten times the pain of childbirth.
Use this skill only as a last resort!!!
Just as Zhang Lei was listening to the system's notification sounds, a vast and boundless space suddenly appeared in his mind. He probed his consciousness into it and felt that it stretched as far as the eye could see. Various hunting skills and experiences, as well as fishing techniques from various masters, also appeared in his mind. Suddenly, he felt like he had gained a brain.
Immediately afterwards, a surge of immense power coursed through my entire body, and a warm current flowed through my waist. The headache and soreness in my back and legs vanished instantly, and my posture straightened considerably.
He subconsciously glanced down and immediately saw his crotch being bulged by something erect. Zhang Lei's heart skipped a beat: Luckily, this was the middle of nowhere with no one around, otherwise, if someone saw him, he would definitely be charged with indecent assault.
He looked around to make sure no one was watching, then quickly unbuckled his belt and peered down, his eyes widening instantly: "Ah! Holy crap! This...this...this is huge, no, it's enormous!"
He was overjoyed, thinking to himself that God had indeed been kind to him. Just then, he felt a sharp, uncomfortable sensation in his crotch.
Zhang Lei reached into his shorts and rummaged around, finding several hard objects. He was so shocked that he couldn't speak.
"Damn! This is ridiculous... no, this isn't the original owner's idea, it must be the wisdom taught to him by his parents! Sewing such important things into his crotch, no wonder those beasts in the courtyard didn't steal these good things from him."
Zhang Lei immediately untied the threads on his underwear and took out the contents. Looking at the property deed, two martyr certificates, two work certificates, and a stack of banknotes in his hand, he was overjoyed.
Zhang Lei counted the money in his hand; it was exactly 2743 yuan, with both odd and even amounts.
Adding to the various receipts in his hand, he felt a pang of sadness. It seemed that the original owner's parents truly loved him; otherwise, they wouldn't have kept so much money and receipts after deducting the one thousand yuan compensation.
Thinking it over, Zhang Lei waved his hand and put everything into his personal space.
Whether it was due to the system's reward or not, Zhang Lei was brimming with boundless energy.
He suddenly remembered something and quickly asked the system in his mind, "System, do I still have one sign-in opportunity left?"
The next second, the system notification sounded precisely on time: "Ding, congratulations host, you have obtained one sign-in opportunity this month. Would you like to use it?"
"Use it!" Zhang Lei replied without hesitation.
"Ding! Congratulations, host, you have received the following rewards: 100 x 10-yuan notes, one ton of beef, one ton of mutton, one ton of chicken, one ton of fish, 10 tons of wheat flour, and 10 tons of mixed noodles. All the check-in items have been placed in your personal space. Please check them yourself."
Hearing the rewards announced by the system, Zhang Lei had lost count of how many times he had been surprised.
He quickly clasped his hands in a fist salute to the air, and said with a fawning expression, "Commander, Commander, I was wrong, I was wrong! Commander, you are so magnanimous, please accept my deepest bow!"
After saying that, he couldn't wait to probe his consciousness into his personal space. He immediately saw the neatly stacked supplies inside—beef, mutton, chicken, and fish were stacked in categories, white flour and mixed noodles were piled up, and the 100 large black ten bills were lying in the most conspicuous position.
At this moment, Zhang Lei's confidence soared. With his maxed-out hunting skills, this deep mountain forest was no different from his own backyard.
He steadied himself, and relying on his hunting skills, he looked up at the position of the sun in the sky and then looked down at the growth of the trees by the roadside, and quickly determined the direction.
Zhang Lei bent down to pick up the machete from the ground, gripped the handle tightly, and strode into the depths of the forest. Along the way, he carefully observed the animals' droppings and footprints, accurately distinguishing which ones belonged to rabbits and which ones to pheasants and wild boars.
He hadn't walked far when he followed the trail to a nest of rabbits and reached out to grab one that was completely black.
Zhang Lei pinched the rabbit's ears and shook it, thinking to himself: Whether you're a white rabbit or a black rabbit, you're still a rabbit. Catching you is a way of getting revenge for being bitten on the finger before.
As he spoke, he had a thought and tried to put the rabbit into his personal space. Sure enough, the black rabbit disappeared from his palm in an instant.
Zhang Lei quickly probed his personal space with his consciousness to check, and what he saw made him gasp in shock—the rabbit was lifeless and completely dead.
He released the rabbit from the space in disbelief, grabbed it by its hind legs and shook it twice, but the rabbit didn't move at all, showing no sign of struggling.
Zhang Lei's mind was in turmoil; this personal space was practically a deadly weapon!
He couldn't help but think that if he ever made an enemy of someone, he could simply reach out and touch them, then put them into his spatial storage, and he could kill them without anyone noticing.
The thought had barely crossed his mind when Zhang Lei shook his head forcefully to suppress it. He silently warned himself: No, no, I'm a survivor who went through nine years of compulsory education; I can't have such wicked thoughts.
As the saying goes, "He who possesses a sharp weapon will naturally have the will to kill." The power of this space is terrifying; we must use it with utmost caution in the future.
Zhang Lei quickly suppressed the murderous intent that had just surfaced in his mind. He knew that no matter what, he should never underestimate the power and wisdom of the country and its people.
Of course, he didn't think much of his own cleverness, after all, in his eyes, he was just an ordinary handsome guy.
Even if the murder goes undetected, doing this kind of thing too often will eventually lead to serious psychological problems.
After all, when you gaze into the abyss, the abyss also gazes into you.
