Chapter 113 Sudden Outbreak
The system's panel operation is very simple. Just place the talisman paper and brush into the two boxes on the system panel to start drawing.
That's an incredibly stupid thing to do.
Wei Chen quickly did as instructed, and a progress bar appeared in front of him.
1.5 seconds later, a brand new talisman appeared in front of him.
System: "Congratulations, host, you have obtained a one-star peace charm and gained 1 point of charm drawing experience. Please continue your efforts."
Wei Chen examined it carefully and found that there was a 1/100 mark on the system panel. Now he finally understood that he needed to create one hundred one-star talismans to upgrade to two-star.
The skills for crafting talismans and refining weapons can both be raised to a maximum of five stars.
This is much faster than specifically training those two skills. Specialized spellcasters, if they want to improve their spell-making skills, naturally have to work diligently, drawing spells day and night.
But all of that is done manually. You have to break your hand to slowly improve, and it doesn't mean that you can gain experience from every talisman.
However, the system was so domineering that no matter how Wei Chen drew the talismans, he could gain experience, and all the talismans he drew could be used.
This is the most domineering aspect of the system.
Wei Chen quickly drew the diagrams. At the same time, he manipulated the weapon-forging process, cutting out shapes from old newspapers and creating various kinds of communication pigeons.
If anyone were to enter Wei Chen's room, they would be quite startled. Wei Chen is currently like Nezha with eight arms, completely flustered and disorganized.
His hands even became blurry images, and Wei Chen created talismans and communication pigeons in this way.
After all, it's impossible for outsiders to see the system panel.
All they could see was Wei Chen, working himself to the bone.
The system notification reads: "Congratulations, host, your talisman-making level has been upgraded to two stars. Congratulations, host, your weapon-refining level has been upgraded to two stars."
……
The system notification reads: "Congratulations, host, your talisman-making level has been upgraded to three stars. Congratulations, host, your weapon-refining level has been upgraded to three stars."
……
The system notification reads: "Congratulations, host, your talisman-making level has been upgraded to four stars. Congratulations, host, your weapon-refining level has been upgraded to four stars."
……
The system notification reads: "Congratulations, host, your talisman-making level has been upgraded to five stars. Congratulations, host, your weapon-refining level has been upgraded to five stars."
……
Wei Chen collapsed to the ground. No one could withstand such prolonged overwork. He had been sitting there for a full day and night, his face covered in blood vessels.
However, Wei Chen mustered his spirits and created five-star talismans such as the Evil-Repelling Talisman, Ghost-Expelling Talisman, Fire Talisman, Thunder Talisman, and Wind Talisman. In terms of weapon crafting, Wei Chen found a piece of 50-year-old peach wood that he had been looking for before. Holding a knife in his hand, he quickly carved a peach wood sword. This was a five-star peach wood sword. Although it looked a bit ugly, the infusion and strength within it were the same.
Wei Chen was so tired he could barely get up. The experience required to refine these things increased with each attempt. Now, communication pigeons were flying everywhere in Wei Chen's room, and talismans were scattered all over the ground.
The system prompted: "Dear host, these items in your room can be recycled into merit points. Would you like to recycle them? The higher the level of the item, the more merit points you will receive."
Wei Chen was too lazy to move.
The system message reads: "This system can give you a Vitality Pill. After taking it, you'll never feel tired again, just like you've drunk Red Bull!"
"Then why don't I just drink Red Bull?" Wei Chen replied irritably.
The system paused for a moment, seemingly considering, before continuing, "Everything produced by this system is naturally of the highest quality. After you take the Qi Pill, firstly, you won't feel tired, and secondly, there won't be any side effects. If you want to redeem it, you still need 5 merit points. But this system can give it to you directly and even give you merit points."
This ridiculous system is a classic example of someone who wouldn't do anything without a profit motive.
If there's no benefit to it.
This guy won't speak up on his own initiative.
They wouldn't be so enthusiastic.
Wei Chen had almost figured out the other person's personality.
The system finds a particular sense of accomplishment in two things: first, when it's tricking people; and second, when it wants merit points, upgrades itself, or tries to persuade Wei Chen to buy things, it acts cute. Like right now.
Seeing the mess inside the room, Wei Chen was too lazy to clean it up and waved his hand, saying, "Recycle it."
Wei Chen had just finished saying that.
Everything in the room disappeared.
The entire room became bright, clean, and simple, as if it had just been cleaned.
Wei Chen was stunned. He never expected that the system would have such a personality.
"A total of 1 merit points have been collected, and the Qi Pill has been delivered to you. Thank you for your patronage."
The frustrating system voice sounded again, and Wei Chen really wanted to punch someone. He had collected so many things, but they were only worth 1 points.
I'd rather go out and kill a ghost.
Perhaps the merit points given will be even greater.
Wei Chen felt distressed.
The system continued, "This is different because I just gave you a Qi Pill, which is worth 5 merit points."
At the same time, the system also placed the system shop panel in front of Wei Chen. On the system shop panel, there was a label for the Essence Pill, and the merit points obtained below it were indeed 5 points.
Wei Chen felt a headache coming on. Why would the system, which was always looking for something, give him something for no reason?
It's simply because they think Wei Chen is going to the Mirror World soon, and in the Mirror World, Wei Chen might gain more merit points.
Wei Chen's current bloodshot eyes will naturally affect his gains in the mirror world, which is why the system is investing so heavily in him.
Just as Wei Chen was thinking this, he heard the system say from the side, "You guessed right, host is really amazing."
Wei Chen: I really wish I wasn't so amazing.
There's a saying, "Don't expose the hardships of life," because some things are really uncomfortable to talk about.
Wei Chen sighed. That's just how the system is; he has no choice but to passively accept it.
After taking the medicine, Wei Chen immediately felt a surge of heat spreading rapidly from his lower abdomen. Before long, his entire body felt warm and comfortable.
Wei Chen's previous dejection vanished completely.
In its place were a pair of bright, piercing eyes.
Wei Chen finally breathed a sigh of relief; at least he felt much better.
Just as he finished doing all this, there was a knock on the door.
