Douluo Continent on the tip of the tongue

[Life crystal, also known as the gold of life, is a form condensed from the purest vitality. It can only appear in places with the strongest vitality. It is the source of life force and a rare treasure. 】

"I see." He had never heard of the Life Crystal, but he had heard of the Living Gold.

Wouldn’t there be a piece of Huo Gua five thousand years later?

That being said, it is indeed a good thing.

"Then how to use it?" Qi Han was a little curious. If he remembered correctly, Huo Gua inserted it directly into his head, right?

[Life crystal is a system upgrade material. After the system upgrade is completed, the remaining life energy will be fed back to the host. 】

"Can you still upgrade??" Qi Han looked stunned, and his attention was suddenly transferred from the life crystal to the system by the system's words.

At this moment, he was still in the backstage of the Starlight Auction House. Qi Han simply put the Life Crystal in his arms, put it into the system space, and then walked out of the Starlight Auction House under the guidance of the waiter.

"System, what's going on with your upgrade?" Qi Han became interested in the system upgrade.

[The system upgrade requires absorbing a large amount of vitality from the life crystal for 24 hours. During the system upgrade, it cannot respond to the host, but the normal rationing of ingredients and the store's automatic protection mechanism can work normally. 】

[The main purpose of the system upgrade is to use the vitality in the life crystal to improve and rebuild the system's small world in order to better provide food for the host. At the same time, the training space will be strengthened. It is expected that the basic time flow rate of the training space will double on the original basis after the upgrade.

Times.]

[After the system is upgraded, the remaining part of the life crystal will feed back to the host, and as the host, the system will be rewarded with key materials for upgrading.]

The amount of information is a bit large...

Qi Han couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

The first sentence is relatively easy to understand. It means that the upgrade will take a day, and the business can still operate normally during the upgrade without being affected.

The meaning of the second sentence is quite clear, that is, for me, the benefit of upgrading the system is that the flow rate of training space and time is doubled again for the time being.

The current time flow rate is 60:1. If it doubles again, it will be 120:1.

The privileges that only mid-level chefs can enjoy originally were enjoyed by me in advance.

Of course, after being promoted to an intermediate chef, the time flow rate will also become 240:1.

As for the vitality feedback of the life crystal, Qi Han doesn't know what effect it has yet, but it is always good.

but...

"System, where did you come from this small world? Why didn't I know?"

[The system small world is an unmanned small world independently developed by the system. It is mainly used to raise all the ingredients needed for the host business and build a complete ecosystem. The internal time flow rate is a thousand times that of the outside world. This small world

Access permission is only granted when the host reaches the level of a god-level chef.】

Qi Han suddenly realized that this was how the ingredients the system had always provided came from.

etc...

"System, since the small world has built a complete ecosystem, in theory it should be cost-free for you to cultivate food materials, right? When you asked me to collect money before, didn't you say that cultivating food materials consumes a lot of money?"

【...】

That's it, I spilled the beans.

[This...this system also wants to experience the feeling of collecting money?]

Qi Han laughed and said, "Okay, okay, I'll just treat it as my personal money."

The money collected by the system was only a drop in the bucket compared to what he earned, so Qi Han naturally didn't care.

No wonder the system never asks you for money when it gives you ingredients. It turns out that the ingredients basically have no cost.

Is this a business without capital? I love it.

"By the way, has there been any change in your system? Why do I feel that you are emotional when you speak now."

[Because it is very close to the life crystal, it is partially affected by the life crystal. After the system is upgraded using the life crystal, it will have richer emotional fluctuations. 】

That's something to look forward to, Qi Han had a little more smile on his face.

Everything about the previous system was good, but the voice had no emotion at all, just like a gourmet food vendor with no emotion at all.

While talking, Qi Han had already arrived at the door of the store, opened the door and walked inside.

He didn't notice that in an alleyway dozens of meters away from him, five or six men fell into a coma, stacked together like a pile of garbage.

A figure in a golden robe stood silently in front of them.

"Just think of it as a reward for treating me to dinner, little kid like you." He muttered silently to himself and disappeared in an instant.

...

"System, let's make a Gulu cat nest in my room." Walking into the room, he looked at the sleeping kitten in his arms, and a smile appeared on Qi Han's face.

[Ten thousand gold soul coins, thank you for your patronage.]

"Why is the cat's nest so expensive?" Qi Han's face fell, feeling that the system was causing trouble again.

[The material is the same as the host’s bed, so you can sleep on it as soon as you fall asleep. 】

"Okay, you finally admit that it's your fault that I fall asleep as soon as I hit the bed every day?" Qi Han suddenly discovered a blind spot.

【...】

I've let it slip too many times that the system doesn't care anymore.

【Just say whether you want it or not.】

"Here you go." He took out a gold ticket worth 10,000 gold soul coins and gave it to the system. Qi Han was a little curious about the cat nest produced by the system.

Immediately afterwards, a delicate and warm cat's nest appeared in the corner of Qi Han's room. The cat's nest was not big, but it could automatically adjust as the kitten's size changed.

See also system black technology.

Carefully placing Gulu in the cat's nest, Qi Han turned around and lay on the bed.

[Does the host have anything else to do? If not, the system will enter the upgrade state? 】

Zzzz...

【That’s sloppy.】

The night passed quickly, and early the next morning, after waking up Qi Han, the system entered the upgrade state.

The system space and training space cannot be entered in the upgraded state. Qi Han, who originally planned to start a three-star recipe while he was free today, could only wait for another twenty-four hours.

However, with the various benefits after the system upgrade, the wait is obviously worth it.

After washing up and putting on clean clothes, Qi Han suddenly heard a subtle cry.

"Meow~"

Gulu's cry made him suddenly realize that Hanshi had a new member.

"I'm still a little used to it." Qi Han smiled and came to the cat's nest and looked at the fluffy little guy in the cat's nest.

"Meow?"

Gulu tilted his head and looked at Qi Han with his big black eyes with a hint of purple.

I remembered, this is the human who tickled me yesterday!

With a few limbs, Gulu easily jumped into Qi Han's arms.

Humans, I want more!

Qi Han skillfully petted the cat with one hand and held Gulu with the other as he walked downstairs.

After being nourished by the life crystal, Gulu seems to have grown a bit, and the hair on his body is also longer. The plush feeling feels great to the touch. His hair has become completely shiny and he looks much more energetic.

With the nourishment of life crystal, there is no need for insect repellent and the like.

By the way...Does Soul Beast Cat need to be neutered?

Qi Han looked at Gulu in his arms and fell into deep thought.

"Meow!"

Gulu was lying comfortably in Qi Han's arms, enjoying Qi Han's massage. At this moment, he suddenly felt a chill coming over him and couldn't help but tremble.

Who? Who wants to harm me!
