After rebirth, she first killed the book thief, and she was busy writing articles to save people
Chapter 481: Slacking off but still able to save life
Jiang Baige sneered before realizing that she was not surprised at all that she actually had a "system" in her body?
At this time, the system spoke again: "Host, if you can accept your rebirth, it must not be difficult for you to accept that the system is bound to you."
Ok?
Can the system hear its own thoughts?
Jiang Baige raised her eyebrows: "Since you can know what I am thinking, did you also hear my complaints just now?"
The system was silent for a while.
Just when Jiang Baige thought it had frozen, it spoke again: "Yes. But I am not slacking off, this is my duty."
"So your job is to slack off?"
Without waiting for the system to refute, Jiang Baige continued to ask, "In other words, I, a person who worked so hard on writing that I died suddenly, actually brought with me a system that focuses on slacking off after my rebirth? After my rebirth, I worked diligently on writing articles, trying to fulfill my dream from my previous life, but my slacking off system jumped out when I finally achieved success and was supposed to enjoy my life, ready to send me to death?"
Jiang Baige became angrier and angrier as he spoke. This time, he stopped pretending and sneered, "Were you defeated by others before you built the system? That's why you can't stand other people's hard work?"
In comparison, although Yao Jing’s system was not a good thing, it also wanted to kill her.
But as a system, it at least does its duty and wants to keep the host alive.
Looking back at myself...
What could be more ironic than matching a slacking system with a person who died suddenly from staying up late to write?
"The host you mentioned who survived by borrowing your life has turned into ashes after failing to borrow your life, and has completely disappeared in the universe..."
The system's voice, without any emotion, sounded in Jiang Baige's ears.
Jiang Baige was about to retort that "this does not conflict with other people's system of fulfilling their duties and responsibilities", but her "fishing system" said: "But I can let you live."
Ok?
Jiang Baige's eyes lit up and she became interested: "Tell me in detail."
"My full name is 'God helps those who help themselves, and those who help others help themselves' Rebirth Life Extension Merit Conversion System."
Jiang Baige: Why do you have such a fancy name for a slacking system?
After hearing Jiang Baige's complaints, the system once again solemnly declared: "Host, I must solemnly declare that it is my duty not to show up, but I am not a slacking off system. The full name of my system is..."
Afraid that the system would read its extremely long name again, Jiang Baige interrupted it hastily: "Let's get down to business!"
"Simply put, I am a system that helps you prolong your life."
This time, Jiang Baige did not interrupt it.
Simply put, this system is just as its name suggests. The way to prolong life is for the host to help others in exchange for merit.
Every time Jiang Baige helps someone, she will get a merit. The system will convert the merit into life span and add it to Jiang Baige.
These merits will be settled once and for all before the end of her original life span.
Before that, Jiang Baige had no idea that helping others would have such great "benefits".
"But that doesn't explain your slacking behavior."
Jiang Baige, strict.
The system was not panicked and continued to explain.
"Because of the special nature of the system, if the host is informed in advance that he can extend his life by helping others, then the system itself will lose its meaning of existence. Therefore, the host must help others for non-utilitarian reasons and from the bottom of his heart in order to obtain the corresponding merits. Therefore, I cannot appear before the official settlement of my life span."
The explanation makes sense, but it's unpleasant.
Jiang Baige asked back, "Does that mean that if I don't have any intention of helping others after my rebirth, then I will definitely die when I'm thirty?"
"Yes."
A cold voice, without mercy, without sarcasm, without any emotion.
"But what counts as helping others? The images you just showed me were indeed people I helped... But if I just gave up my seat to an elderly person on the bus or helped someone carry their luggage on the subway, would that not count as helping others?"
"Yes," the system replied quickly, "but there are different levels of merit. What was just displayed was the people you have saved in the past ten years, and saving people is the greatest merit."
Among them, great merit can increase lifespan by eight to ten months, and small merit can increase lifespan by a few hours to a few days...
Jiang Baige felt a headache: "You don't need to tell me the calculation process, just give me the result."
"Okay. According to the rule that small merits are incorporated into the great merit of saving people, one year of life is used as the basic unit. The host has helped about thirty people in total in the past ten years, so his life span can be extended by thirty years."
Thirty years? More than she thought.
Although it seems that there are people living to the age of 60 everywhere now, for her, who has only lived for 40 years in her two lifetimes, it is already quite a lot.
She quickly counted the faces she had just seen in her mind and found something wrong: "It seems there are only twenty-nine?"
"Because the host missed one person."
"Oh?"
"Yourself." The system explained, "In the past ten years, the host has saved himself three times. The first time was to take back the manuscript, the second time was to defeat Yao Jing's system, and the third time was to fight against cyberbullying. Each rescue can extend your life by four months, and three times is exactly twelve months."
Jiang Baige: What it said makes so much sense that I can’t refute it.
The system “heard”: “Thank you, host, for your affirmation of the system’s work.”
Jiang Baige: No, I don’t have this slacking system!
But this time, the system chose to ignore it.
Jiang Baige felt a crackling sound of electricity in her head, which made her feel a little uncomfortable: "What are you doing now? Are you injecting some kind of energy to prolong my life into me?"
"The host is indeed a novelist, he guessed it right at the first try."
Well, to be honest, Jiang Baige didn't expect this system to be so easy to guess.
There was a brief silence between them. Because Jiang Baige didn't know what to ask, the system didn't say anything. She suddenly felt fortunate that the system had disappeared before, otherwise she would have been so uncomfortable for the past ten years.
It seems that she was lucky enough to be randomly matched with a system that likes to play missing.
The system spoke again: "Thank you for the host's affirmation. However, the system does not match randomly, but selects according to the reason for the host's rebirth."
"The reason why I was reborn... Do you know why I was reborn?!"
The mystery that had troubled her for ten years was about to be solved. Jiang Baige suddenly became excited and almost shouted the last sentence.
"It's regret. Host, you were reborn because of regret."
The system's voice still lacked any emotion.
"Regret?" Jiang Baige kept smacking the word in her mouth, not understanding. "Are you saying that I regret choosing to write online articles for a living before I die? But I don't regret it..."
"It's not you." The system paused for a second, then confirmed it and said, "It's your mother's regret."
