Chapter 3 Thinking Change, Personality Growth

In the space of consciousness,

Just when Bella was thinking about whether to commit suicide, the system prompt sounded in her ears at the right time again.

"Ding~ The side mission is released, do you accept it?"

"..."

I don't know since when, Bella has become extremely reluctant and very resistant to accepting the task.

"Can I check the content of the mission first?" Bella asked Wutong.

"cannot."

An expected answer.

Hearing this answer, Bella was not surprised at all. It couldn't be too normal. It was strange that her system was so screwed up.

"Accept." Bella said listlessly.

Anyway, you can give up on the side missions, accept them first, and then look at the content of the missions.

"The side mission has been accepted and can be abandoned.

"Side mission 2: Please launch an attack on Xiao Yun.

"Completion reward: Death.

"Penalty for failure: Survival, charm value reduced by one.

“Special note: This is a mission that satisfies your current wish.

"Warm reminder: No matter how humble you think you are or how unsatisfactory your life is, please cherish your life. Everyone's life is a miracle and very expensive. Please don't give up easily. You can't start over in life. Opportunity. No one is humble. Ups and downs and failures are meant to be overcome, but cowardice and retreat are incurable."

After reading this task, Bella felt as if...she had just eaten a piece of chocolate, but after eating it, she was told that it was a piece of chocolate-flavored shit.

Good guy, she just had the idea of ​​committing suicide, and the system force-fed her a mouthful of unpleasant chicken soup. Since the system is so "understanding", why not give her some benefits?

Seemingly hearing Bella's thoughts, Wutong issued another mission.

"Ding~ The side mission is released, do you accept it?"

Bella was slightly stunned, then ecstatic. Could it be that...the system finally found its conscience, showed mercy, and wanted to provide her with benefits? ! Yes! In the novel, other time travelers have novice gift packages for transition, so she should have one too, right? !

"Accept, accept!" Bella couldn't wait to say, and she began to imagine that she was holding annihilation in her hands and stepping on...

"The side mission has been accepted and can be abandoned.

"Side mission 3: Please sincerely praise your master, Wutong.

"Completion reward: a Shitu.

"Penalty for failure: Charisma value minus one.

"Special reminder: This is the benefit you want."

"?"

Bella's fantasy was shattered instantly.

Haha, this benefit is really stingy!

Who wants such shabby benefits? !

However, Bella still chose to finish it, don't do it for nothing! You won't lose anything by praising the system, but you won't lose anything by not praising it.

After praising Wutong's appearance with disgusting words, she successfully received an astringent picture.

Bella rubbed her "little" hands and gently opened the scroll with her fingertips with anticipation and caution.

"Whose picture is this beauty Kangkang? Could it be that of Her Majesty the Queen? Hoho~ The painting style is really good! Hehe~ It is indeed produced by the system, these asymmetrical white stockings, these small feet, these big The long legs, these pair of horns, this, this...how come this seems to be me after my transformation?"

Bella tilted her head and silently closed the high-definition painting that could be called a work of art, intending to keep it for later when the night was quiet and she could appreciate it by herself.

Bella didn't want to delve into why the system knew what she would look like in the future and why it drew a sketch of her, because she knew that exploring these things would be a waste of time, and it would be difficult for her to find out anything.

She is ultimately weak in front of the system.

After putting away the artwork, Bella clicked on the abandon option of Side Mission 2, and another message popped up: Do you want to spend some charm points to abandon this mission?

"..."

Bella almost couldn't help but spit in Wutong's face, but she didn't dare. Wutong never told her that she would have to pay a price for abandoning the mission!

Bella still pays more attention to the charm value. Based on her previous game experience, she believes that the higher the charm value, it may mean that it is easier for her to win the favor of other people. The most important thing is that her appearance will change as her appearance becomes more and more popular. The higher the charm value, the more beautiful you become.

Everyone wants to look good, including Bella. She has even imagined that her appearance will surpass Wutong due to her extremely high charm value.

Now that she has to deduct some of her charm points, Bella feels even more uncomfortable than killing her!

The user experience of this dog system is too bad. Can I change it to another system? !

After thinking over and over again, Bella did not choose to give up Side Mission 2. She really couldn't bear to part with that little charm value. Of course, she didn't intend to do that mission, and she wouldn't commit suicide.

Bella decided to leave the task alone and never do it.

However, heaven does not fulfill people's wishes, and people do not fulfill their wishes.

Just when Bella thought she had made a clever move and found a bug, the system seemed to guess what she was thinking.

Wutong said coldly and ruthlessly: "Based on the current situation, you are no longer able to complete side task 2. The system automatically determines that the task has failed. Failure penalty: Survival, the charm value is reduced by one. Your current charm value is: 10. In order to move towards Longsheng Peak, please keep working hard, little Bella."

"...

"

Bella was silent for a moment and sighed.

"Why……"

A long sigh that can't explain the countless helplessness and sadness, and can't explain how much melancholy and difficulty in letting go.

…

My name is Bella. Here, I would like to give a piece of advice to the "younger generations": don't think about time travel after death, let alone fantasize about time travel. You must be the protagonist and be able to have a prosperous life.

There is no free lunch in the world. No matter which world you are in, there is no shortcut, and it is impossible to reach the sky in one step. The outside world is more dangerous, cruel and unfair.

Greenhouse flowers are more comfortable staying in a greenhouse, and they can only survive if they stay in a greenhouse.

If you want to get something from the "Golden Finger", you must pay a corresponding price, because the time traveler is not the "father" or master of the system. There is no reason for the system to be reduced to a servant unconditionally and more powerful than humans in every aspect. Serve a stranger wholeheartedly.

The system is the real "father", and the time traveler is just a worker.

…

At this moment, Bella suddenly felt that she had grown a lot.

She reviewed everything she had experienced since her "travelling" in detail and objectively. Bella was surprised to find that her master Wutong seemed to have done nothing wrong to her except to establish a master-servant relationship with her. things.

He even helped her break through Kevin's illusion and saved her life by reminding him. It can be said that the owner of Wutong is relatively kind to her, a stranger.

What she gets is very likely just because she pays little.

But even so, it was still difficult for Bella to accept it just now. She even felt sad and mentally unbalanced, and thought about committing suicide. This may be due to the huge gap between fantasy and reality.

In Bella's "past life" memories that she didn't know were true or false, there were countless humans who treated her with malice and said evil things to her, but she endured them all silently.

But why is it so difficult for her to accept Wutong's "goodwill" and why is she so mentally unbalanced? Not only that, she also secretly insulted the dog system in her heart!

Thinking of this, Bella actually felt a little ashamed, and she almost turned into the appearance of the bad people who had hurt her.

Wutong was a little surprised by Bella's performance, so there was no need for him to teach her, right? This girl actually trained herself? ! really interesting!

"Ding ~ You have acquired skills, introspection, intelligence plus 0.01, current intelligence: 2-. Please continue to improve yourself, come on, little Bella."

The sound of the system and what was happening in reality interrupted Bella's thoughts.

At this time, outside the space of consciousness.

Seven armed helicopters flew in from the direction of the Heavenly Palace. Bella had already been tied tightly by Xiao Yun with restraint keys. Xiao Yun and his apprentice seemed to want to transport her away, but they didn't know where to transport her. , Bella guessed, it was probably the city in the sky on the horizon.

"Why is she so obedient? She didn't resist the whole time." Cheng Lixue poked Bella's sharp claws with her fingertips, her expression blank, as if she was a little incredulous.

"Well, it is indeed very special. It is as special as Xiao Xilin. Basically all Honkaimon... no, it should be said that all creatures are not very intelligent when they are born and only have weak thinking ability, but she has a lot of abilities. The high level of intelligence is incredible.”

Bella moved her ears when she heard Xilin's name. Her mood at the moment was extremely complicated.

On the one hand, she felt particularly worried and fearful about the future she was about to face. Bella believed that humans definitely wanted to study her, otherwise Xiao Yun would have killed her with the sword just now, and it would be impossible to just tie her up.

Bella doesn't want to be studied. It's terrifying to think about being studied by humans. It must be very painful! Therefore, she secretly planned to escape when no one was prepared.

However, she didn't know if she could run.

On the other hand, Bella was a little worried about Xilin. Seeing the calm and unhurried looks of Xiao Yun and Cheng Lixue, she guessed that Xilin was probably subdued by humans, or even... died.

No no no! Siren was probably not dead yet. Bella relied on instinct to feel that Siren was still alive. This feeling was indescribable and very strange.

However, it is impossible to count on Xilin to rescue her, and even if Xilin comes to find her, there is a high probability that she will not be able to defeat Xiao Yun.

So the question is, should Bella take Siren with her when she escapes?

Bella knew nothing about the outside world and relied solely on speculation. Xiao Yun's appearance broke her understanding of the plot. She was not sure whether she was in a collapsing world.

To be honest, Bella has no feelings for Siren.

In the past life, through the mobile phone screen, she might have said something like "Queen ride me, step on me, supermarket..." etc.

But after her rebirth, she felt that Sirin was a mentally retarded child. She would definitely not end well if she followed Sirin and became an enemy of humans. She even disliked the queen and had the idea of ​​drawing a clear line between herself and Siren.

Unfortunately, it is impossible for Bella to draw a clear line with Sirin because she is Sirin's companion Honkaimon.

If Bella finds a chance to escape, should she take Siren with her? On the way to escape, the willful Siren is very likely to become so inflated that she loses all control and settles accounts with humans to hold her back.

"Hey... I still want it... If that stupid kid doesn't have my care and advice, he may end up very miserable." Bella, who couldn't protect herself, thought.

After all, she couldn't bear to see Siren die tragically, but what troubled Bella was that she didn't want to see the innocent human being Siren...

And die.

What to do?

hateful! It's all Otto's fault!

At this moment, a crisp "ding~" sounded in Bella's mind again.

"Ding~ The side mission is released, do you accept it?"

Bella was even more upset. She didn't want to accept it, but this "ding~" might be a life-saving straw for her and Siren.

"accept."

The reality is so helpless.

Bella didn't want to let the opportunity slip away from her fingertips because of her timidity. At worst, her charm value would be reduced a little!

"The side mission has been accepted and can be abandoned.

"Side mission 4: Go to the dark side of the moon with Siren.

"Completion Reward 1: Four Herrscher-like cores of this era, namely ice, fire, wind, and death.

"Completion Reward 2: A Thunder Herrscher core of this era.

"Completion reward 3: Intelligence plus two.

"Completion Reward 4: Transformable into human form.

"Failure Penalty: None.

“Special reminder: High returns represent extreme risks. The rewards may seem generous, but the price may be difficult for you to bear, and you may even regret it for the rest of your life.

"Warm reminder: It is recommended to give up this task. Giving up this task will cost a little strength."

Without any prompts, Bella became wary. Good guy, is this reward too outrageous? ! There is definitely a problem! Her system can't be so generous!

The dark side of the moon... there seems to be... the Honkai Will!

By the way, why is this kind of mission still a side mission?
