The system flashed out, forming a blurry halo in Zhao Ling's mind.

Its voice is not as rigid and mechanical as before, and seems to have a unique tone: "In order to prevent the host from deliberately delaying, a time limit is set for the host."

Zhao Ling frowned. She could feel the loss of time on the taskbar, as if there was a sudden sense of urgency in her heart.

"What if the task is still not completed within the time limit?"

The system seemed to have expected that she would ask this question, and said solemnly: "Extend the time limit and punish the host."

Zhao Ling didn't want to ask what the punishment was.

Probably nothing but electric shock.

But this time, the system added: "After three delays, the host will be directly obliterated!"

Zhao Ling instantly arched his back like a cat, and his whole body collapsed: "Erase means...forcibly taking my life?"

The system did not speak and acquiesced to Zhao Ling's words.

Zhao Ling pursed his lips.

She is like a piece of fish on the screen, ready to be slaughtered?

Zhao Ling stood up, relaxed his numb legs, covered up the coldness in his eyes, and asked with a joking tone: "What? It's the end of the month, you systems that bind humans, will you be punished if you can't complete the KPI?

?So you force me to work overtime to help you complete your target?"

The system didn't answer, but Zhao Ling noticed a bit of evasion.

Zhao Ling added: "But to put it in perspective, we actually have a mutually beneficial relationship, right? I do things for you to complete tasks, and I get rewards to improve myself. This is a win-win situation. But..."

There was unabashed temptation in Zhao Ling's voice: "Why do you only use me as a tool for manipulation? You deliberately concealed something and didn't want me to know, right?"

"The most important thing is that since the binding, you have never told me, what are you?"

Zhao Ling has a complete memory, so Zhao Ling knows everything that happened from the time Zhao Ningning was bound to the system to now.

The system appears without any warning.

He almost unilaterally bound Zhao Ningning without even saying hello, and then ordered Zhao Ningning to do things.

But who is Zhao Ningning?

Although her background was not very good, she was a coquettish girl from the Zhao family who had been pampered and manipulated since she was a child.

How could a thing that appeared out of nowhere be able to control her without giving her some benefits?

So in the beginning, the relationship between the two was completely deadlocked.

Even if the system threatens Zhao Ningning, it is just a trivial matter and is insignificant.

But then one day, the system suddenly changed. Several tasks and reward values ​​were listed, and Zhao Ningning was threatened to do them.

If Zhao Ningning doesn't go, he will suffer the electric shock punishment like Zhao Ling.

Zhao Ningning had never experienced hardship, so she was timid and embarked on this road, and she has been out of control ever since.

But now that he thought about it, Zhao Ling felt that there were many doubts.

Although the system bound to Chuchu threatened Zhao Ningning, it never said the words "obliterate", and it could not actually do anything to Zhao Ningning.

At that time, it was probably not that it didn't want to, but that it was powerless.

But now, it has almost all the power of life and death over its host.

The changing node is the day when the reward value can be listed.

"I just want to know who you are and why you ask me to do these things. Isn't this too much?"

Zhao Ling raised his head, with a curious luster in his black and white eyes, "Even a prisoner will understand clearly before going to the guillotine, not to mention that all the tasks I do are to push myself towards death. We have been together for so long,

It wouldn't hurt if you gave me some information, right?"

Her tone of voice is really gentle, and her eyes are big and clear, which makes people feel relieved.

But the system is not a human being, and it will not accept this trick.

Its light flickered, and in the end it just said: "The host doesn't need to know who I am, just complete the task on time."

Zhao Ling frowned.

She stared at the tasks on the panel and thought uncontrollably. In the past, the time to complete tasks was not limited, and even the system's attitude towards urging was not so tough.

But during this time, the system seemed to be stimulated by something and almost wanted her to finish everything in a short period of time.

Why?

Is it also threatened with "obliteration"?

But if we think of them as employees of the company, even if they fail to meet the KPI, they will not be killed. At most, they will be fired.

So where does the tension in the system come from?

Zhao Ling couldn't figure it out, so he lowered his head and started working.

The sunset outside the house reflected half of the sky red, and the golden light fell on the door, stretching her thin body to be slender and long. She lowered her head, and her long neck was exposed, which gave her a somewhat demure and beautiful look.

The system thought that Zhao Ling had just accepted his fate, but a moment later, Zhao Ling suddenly said quietly: "Actually... you are relying on me to grow, right?"

She said it suddenly without communicating with the system in her mind.

Because of the gentleness and calmness of his words, the system paused, and even the people in the live broadcast room were surprised.

[Who is Zhao Ningning talking to?]

[Shh, it must be the person who controls her]

[I think she is seriously ill and is just talking to herself]

【Why are you so anxious? Won’t you know if you listen further? 】

[She said it again and again]

【……】

"Actually, what you said before was all a cover?"

Zhao Ling raised his head, not knowing what he was looking at. His expression was very calm, "Everything you asked me to do is just..."

But before she could continue, sharp, heart-wrenching pain suddenly exploded from her mind.

At that moment, Zhao Ling even felt that he was not being shocked by electricity, but that his whole body was thrown into the sea of ​​fire, and his limbs and bones were being roasted and burned by the raging fire.

The bones seemed to have been dismantled and reassembled, and she was like a helpless rag doll, letting the extreme pain wreak havoc.

As her physique strengthened, her body's ability to endure it actually improved.

So even though the pain this time was more intense than before, she still didn't faint and remained conscious.

This is a kind of double destruction to the spirit and body.

Zhao Ling's face turned pale, and beads of sweat quickly appeared on his forehead.

But unfortunately, she didn't even let out a cry of pain this time, she just frowned and stared straight into the void with her eyes like knives.

The light group seemed to condense into substance in an instant, but then dissipated in an instant.

Zhao Ling's appearance was seen by everyone in the live broadcast room, and those suspicious and inconsistent things seemed to come to mind again.

But soon, the live broadcast went black again and they couldn't see anything.

Zhao Ling didn't know all this, he just clenched his hands and his voice almost came out from between his teeth: "What you asked me to do is to help you become stronger, right?"

"You don't allow me to communicate with you outside. What are you afraid of? Is someone watching you, or is someone watching my every move?"

"Your kind? Or..."

"Your enemy?"

After saying the last sentence, Zhao Ling suddenly reached his limit, spit out a mouthful of blood and passed out.
