Chapter 882: Remote Support
"System, speaking of which, how long has it been since I last drew a card? If I remember correctly, I still have one summon card that I haven't used yet."
"After the Upper Realm, the card draw system was changed to consume crystal cores. A ten-draw requires one hundred crystal cores."
The system's answer shocked Chen Futu: "Are you sure it's that little?"
"Host, don't misunderstand. The items you get from spending one hundred Tier 1 crystal cores are different from those you get from spending one hundred Tier 5 crystal cores. You can use lower-level crystal cores to offset the cost of the draw."
"I currently have a total of three million crystal cores, which is only equivalent to three hundred fifth-tier crystal cores?"
"Yeah."
"Can we not make it so dark?"
"No, the system needs to make money too."
The dog system has even learned to act cute.
Chen Futu asked subconsciously, "I see you're becoming more and more intelligent. When will you be able to materialize yourself?"
"What? The host has so many women he doesn't want, but he's planning to play around with the system?"
"Ahem, I'm not that perverted, I'm afraid of getting an electric shock."
"Just wait, once the system level is high enough, it can be materialized into a physical form."
"Then I'll have to look forward to it."
After communicating with the system, Chen Futu glanced at the outside environment and noticed through the floor-to-ceiling window that the outdoor air was distorted by the high temperature.
Fortunately, water sales are good, and most people won't die from dehydration. In addition, some food needs to be prepared. Also, Chen Futu discovered that someone in the channel was live-streaming, going out to hunt mutated beings in the high temperature, which obviously meant they had run out of crystal cores.
"This world is really tough."
Looking at the pitiful figure sweating profusely, Chen Futu couldn't help but feel a pang of sympathy.
I wonder how Ling'er is doing.
After ascending to immortality in Lizhou, Chen Futu's biggest worry was his beloved daughter. That girl had been pampered and cherished by everyone since childhood; how could she endure such a hard life?
Hopefully she's not alone; it would be best if she were with Xiaobai. If Xiaobai is by her side, her safety wouldn't be a problem.
"System, can I send some supplies to my daughter?"
Chen Futu couldn't help but ask.
The system remained silent for a long time before speaking, "Are you sure, host? If you are willing to spend one hundred fifth-tier crystal cores, the system can try to locate Xiao Qing. Chen Ling'er is most likely near her, but it may not be able to locate her successfully. Moreover, even if it is located, she will probably be very far away from you and it will be impossible to cross the distance. Forcibly sending supplies there will require a large number of crystal cores to succeed."
"You can try it!"
Chen Futu nodded without hesitation.
He cherished his daughter the most; nothing else mattered. He could earn more crystal cores once they were gone, but Ling'er absolutely could not have any accidents.
The system then fell silent once again, and Chen Futu's crystal core storage count dropped directly from three million to two million.
"Location failed."
"Did you do this on purpose?!" Chen Futu glared angrily.
"The system said that if the distance is too far, it may not be able to locate the target successfully."
"Again!"
"Location failed."
"I'm going to your mother!"
Chen Futu has really become famous. In the blink of an eye, he still has one million crystal cores left. Who can withstand that!
"Would you like to continue, host?"
"continue."
"Location failed."
……
Chen Futu was numb.
Even the system can't locate Ling'er, so it seems that this world is much larger than expected.
Over the next few days, Chen Futu put food on the shelves and was able to get five million crystal cores every day, but the system failed every time.
Chen Futu strongly suspected that this shameless thing was openly devouring crystal cores.
"Host, don't be discouraged, keep going."
"Forget it, let's not set a location."
"The system senses that the location is about to be successfully located. Please do not give up."
"I'll trust you one last time, so you'd better be reliable."
How much did Chen Futu love Chen Ling'er? It's not hard to tell from the crystal cores he spent.
In just ten days, they spent about 50 million crystal cores. If that had been used to buy supplies, how many people could have lived a good life?
"Congratulations, host, the system upgrade is successful."
"System, refund my money! I knew it!"
"I'm sorry, host, the system upgrade needs to be kept secret from the will of this world. There is a chance of failure, just like when you used to enhance your equipment in a game. It's all a matter of probability."
"So you failed dozens or hundreds of times in a row? Where's my daughter?!"
"Xiaoqing has been successfully located. Chen Ling'er is right next to it. The target is about hundreds of millions of kilometers away from Luanjie Mountain."
"Are you kidding me?"
"The system isn't joking; this is real-time footage captured by the system."
The system waved its little hand in the ocean of will, and a fragment of the world of will appeared, showing Chen Ling'er, disheveled and unkempt, holding Xiao Qing, huddled in an abandoned house, while someone outside was looking for her.
"What's going on?" Chen Futu asked anxiously.
"The situation I encountered was similar to that of Ge Fei, who is now a fifth-tier expert."
"Send the weapons over quickly!"
"Please accept the system upgrade reward. You may choose whether to teleport there. Also, please note that due to the long distance and the disorder of the will of heaven and earth, the system can only teleport once. The next teleport will require recalculating her coordinates."
"Okay! Give out the rewards!"
Ding!
"System upgrade successful. Congratulations to the host for obtaining a seventh-tier weapon, Shadow Assassin, a storage ring, a modified RV, and a villa upgrade and renovation template."
Soon, four orbs of light landed in front of Chen Futu. The seventh-tier Shadow Thorn was a good thing. It allowed the wearer to enter a stealth state when holding it tightly. Once an attack was launched, the stealth would be broken. After disengaging from combat, the wearer could become invisible again after thirty seconds, but it would continuously consume power.
“Good stuff, just what Ling’er needs. And the RV has enough electricity and equipment to let Ling’er live a good life.”
Chen Futu muttered to himself as he stored a large amount of supplies and a handwritten letter in his storage ring.
"System, send it over immediately."
"Okay, host, the teleportation fee is ten million."
"Holy crap, do I even have any crystal cores left? Look how much I'd be worth if I were sold!"
"The host can pay in advance. Once the sales revenue for the next two days arrives, the system will no longer give the host a share."
"hurry up!"
The system is currently unable to take on a concrete form, otherwise Chen Futu would definitely beat her up to vent his anger.
On the other side, Chen Ling'er, holding Xiao Qing, hid in the room and held her breath, while dozens of people outside were conducting a thorough search for her location.
"Father, Mother, Eldest Brother, is Ling'er going to die?"
Chen Ling'er bit her lip, her body trembling slightly with fear.
After Xiaoqing noticed, she licked her cheek, then turned her watery eyes toward the door, filled with determination and anger.
It is the Qilin, a divine beast summoned by Chen Futu, but it grew up with Chen Ling'er. After ascending to the upper realm, Ling'er always held it, so the two were not forcibly separated. Now it is determined to risk its life to give its young master a chance to live.
Just then, a dazzling ring suddenly appeared in front of Chen Ling'er.
