Chapter 243: When will this ever end?

Since awakening this system, Gu Heng has been researching it day and night for several years.

But no matter how much he studied it, he could only ever see four interfaces.

"Status", "Shop", "Skills", and "Backpack".

The main interface actually only has four options.

There is no such thing as a "task"!

So what exactly is this "Change of Music" quest that popped up now?

Gu Heng didn't know either, because there was neither detailed information nor mission objectives. The only thing he knew was that he had completed the mission. However...

If there was anything that happened tonight, it was that he saw Liu Yu.

If we had to pinpoint a specific person to the musical scale, it would only be Liu Yu.

Another thing was that he gave her the only item sold in the store, the "Nameless Music Score." Apart from that, Gu Heng really couldn't think of anything he had done that would make the system take the initiative to send him a message to tell him that he had also completed a task.

Or it's the so-called "correcting cause and effect" task that sounds profound and mysterious.

"Can you explain this to me? This is the first time I've ever heard of a mission, and what exactly is this 'Zhouyin Fate Star'?"

Gu Heng tentatively asked the system.

Then the system went silent.

"Can you say something to me, Mr. System?" "Bro? Miss? Big Sister?"

"A mere brat? The invincible supreme being of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths?"

He began trying out different ways of addressing someone, hoping it would respond.

But there was still no response.

Gu Heng remained silent for a moment.

Then he thought for a moment, and suddenly started shaking his head violently: "Don't play dead! System, please say something!"

The result was still no response.

Gu Heng slapped his thigh angrily, closed the interface, and lay back down on the bed.

He couldn't stay still; he'd almost shaken his brain to its core, and now his head was throbbing and dizzy, but he still couldn't fall asleep.

Gu Heng simply kept his eyes open, feeling utterly frustrated, and sighed again as he thought about the system interface from earlier.

I was a little excited just now.

The excitement was no less than when I first awakened the system.

After all, Gu Heng had always wanted to cultivate, to experience the feeling of soaring through the heavens and diving into the earth, and to wield power. The existence of the system was meant to enable him to do just that.

However, this system is clearly not working, and as a system, it doesn't interact with its host at all!

In the past, when I practiced my skills, I had to check my own progress myself, rather than having the system remind me. If I didn't practice, it wouldn't urge me to.

The main approach is a laissez-faire training style that leaves the students to their own devices.

However, Gu Heng is not the kind of person who needs a system to whip him from behind before he will practice. He is very ambitious, and he has so much time that he doesn't know what to do with it. If he could cultivate, Gu Heng would definitely believe that he could become a remarkable person!

But this dream was cruelly extinguished by reality in the following years. The system wouldn't teach him how to cultivate, and Gu Heng tried to join some sects to ask for cultivation methods, but all the sects responded that he had "no talent whatsoever and was born unable to cultivate."

Therefore, Gu Heng also began to consider reality rather than ideals.

tonight.

The system sent him a message for the first time.

So a spark suddenly rekindled in Gu Heng's heart, though it was very small, and now it has been extinguished once again.

However, he was certain of one thing.

That means the system really does have more than just those four broken functions!

At least the system still has a task module, but Gu Heng can't find it at all, or rather, the system's UI is not well done, and the task module that was originally visible is now invisible.

But the latter idea is rather absurd. After all, Gu Heng doesn't really believe that the system is imperfect. The reason it allowed him to gain so many proficient skills from scratch is simply by systematically grinding for proficiency.

Gu Heng didn't even realize that he had actually learned anything while grinding for proficiency.

A whole bunch of information suddenly appeared in my mind.

This is incredible!

"Never mind, let's go to sleep first... I hope I didn't disturb Yi Yao."

Gu Heng got up, opened the door, glanced at the door at the other end of the private room, which was tightly closed, and breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems my outburst just now didn't bother her.

You can't disturb the little girl when she's sleeping. Last time at the clinic, in the middle of the night, Gu Heng went up to the roof to catch the mouse that stole his pastries, making a huge commotion.

As a result, the mouse was caught, and the little girl, with an extremely gloomy expression, ran to her bed and made a huge fuss for half an hour, saying things like, "If Master is bothering me, then I'll start making a scene!"

If Gu Heng hadn't been quick-witted enough to get her some brown sugar pastries and then used his incredibly strong arms to lift her up and threaten to spank her, that girl probably would have made a scene all night.

Anyway, Gu Heng was scared.

"Ding--"

However, just as he was about to fall asleep, the system interface popped up again.

Gu Heng: "???"

When will this system ever end?
