Chapter 52 Upgrade the SystemWomen are the most annoying creatures.
Games are more interesting.
Now that he had broken her heart, he"d just let her completely give up all at once.
Ling Chen was silent.
She stared fixedly at Lin Beichen.
Gradually, her look became increasingly serious.
It seemed that she was turning into an overbearing queen who had dominated everyone.
For no reason, Lin Beichen"s legs suddenly felt a little weak.
So he said, “Uh, It"s true. I really suffer from memory loss. Ling Chen, maybe you need to wait for me until I regain my memory. Then, I"ll come to you, OK?”
He was not afraid.
He just followed his heart.
It was so kind of him to say so.
He didn"t want to hurt this little girl.
“Okay.”
Ling Chen immediately smiled again and said happily, “I"m actually very sensible.”
When Lin Beichen was going crazy and didn"t know what to say next, a middle-aged beautiful female teacher from Royal National Junior College came over after hearing the news, with her eyes as sharp as a knife focused on Lin Beichen, and then she took Ling Chen away.
Lin Beichen was finally relieved.
At the same time, the entire camp was about to explode because of several pieces of news.
“What?”
“Ling Chen is Lin Beichen"s girlfriend?”
“What?”
“Ling Chen offered to follow Lin Beichen?”
“What?”
“Cloudy Dream City is about to explode?”
Many people had a ridiculous feeling that the end of the world was coming.
In the distance, Li Luoran, from the Castellan Administration, stayed in the darkness and looked quietly at some place. Apart from shock, there was something else in his eyes.
At this time, Ding Sans.h.i.+, who had always been like an invisible man, suddenly jumped out at Lin Beichen, directly grabbing the latter"s collar without forethought, and taking him back to the tent of Third College.
“Tell me what the h.e.l.l is going on?”
Ding Sans.h.i.+ grabbed Lin Beichen"s neck and shook it frantically.
“Kehhh…” Lin Beichen struggled to escape from Ding Sans.h.i.+"s hands, and shouted, “Calm down, Mr. Ding. You can rest a.s.sured that I have big aspirations and know what"s more important. I will absolutely not give up my pursuit of swordsmans.h.i.+p just because of such a boring thing as love. I will definitely strive for the glory of Third College…”
“Nonsense.” Ding Sans.h.i.+ interrupted him angrily and scolded him. “The glory of our college is nothing. Above all, you must not let the people who really love you down.”
“Huh?”
Lin Beichen froze.
“Hang on.
“There seems to be something wrong.
“Who is Mr. Ding speaking for…?”
He was here not to see a stereotypical soap opera; he was the students" leader.
He looked at Ding Sans.h.i.+ in surprise.
Ding Sans.h.i.+ seemed to just react, and the expression on his face instantly returned to normal.
He let go of Lin Beichen slowly, and seemed to be as lonely as a peerless master.
He looked up at the moon in the sky, and sighed lightly.
“Alas, Xiaobei, you are still too young to understand… At the very beginning, you did not understand the love story, and later, you realized that it"s your love story. Young man, there is someone who you must not miss in your whole life even if you lose everything.”
Lin Beichen: “…”
He had never known that this old man was actually such a romantic.
“Mr. Ding, how about telling your story…?”
Lin Beichen laughed.
“Haha,” Ding Sans.h.i.+ replied with a cold smile.
Lin Beichen added, “Thank you.”
“What?”
“Mr. Ding, you just took me back to the tent quickly so as to help me out so that I would not be so embarra.s.sed, right?”
“You think too much.”
Ding Sans.h.i.+ turned and left, going back to his room to take a hot spring bath.
Lin Beichen was speechless.
The more he got in touch with Ding Sans.h.i.+, the more he felt that Mr. Ding could turn into a potentially hilarious NPC.
At this time, he was alone in the tent.
Around the camp, roars of wild beasts arose.
When it was getting darker, Lin Beichen somehow felt that there were dangers around.
On the walls of the camp, the elite Cloudy Dream Guard soldiers were on their guard for all possible dangers, obviously seeming to be much tenser than they had been during the day.
Soon, the beasts" roars came from outside the city, as if a wave of beasts were attacking the city.
The camp"s Mystery Mark Formation was activated, forming a s.h.i.+eld to protect everyone in it.
The wilderness at night was indeed a forbidden place for human beings.
It was said that the darkness would make beasts become manic and increase their strength. The destructive power of beasts in the dark night was at least twice as strong as that in the daytime.
Because Lin Beichen was full, he soon became sleepy.
He snored loudly in his sleep.
In the second half of the night, a sound came from the tent.
Yue Hongxiang was back.
Lin Beichen seemed to vaguely hear someone sob, but soon the sound disappeared.
Until the next day, neither Mu Xinyue nor Wu Xiaofang returned.
While Lin Beichen was sleeping soundly, a familiar voice suddenly arose in his ear—
“A new version of the system has been detected. Will you update the system?”
He was so excited that he immediately got out of his sleeping bag.
He summoned the phone directly.
Then a big prompt box appeared on the phone"s home screen.
“Update the system?”
Lin Beichen was suddenly awake.
He pondered the information in his heart.
“How could the mobile phone system be updated suddenly?”
Was it because he had some permissions when he had made a certain grade, such as taking first place in the Midyear Compet.i.tion, or inexplicably winning the top beauty"s love?
Did it mean that as long as he attained certain achievements in the future, he could regularly upgrade the phone"s system?
Maybe.
But that was not the most important question.
The most important thing was whether the phone"s functions would change after the system was upgraded.
For example, could the app be still used for cultivation?
For another example, would there be any tips about the way back to Earth?
These thoughts came to Lin Beichen"s mind in turn.
After thinking over those questions for half an hour, Lin Beichen made a decision.
He decided to upgrade the phone system.
Because his rich experience in using various mobile phones told him that, generally speaking, upgrading a mobile phone system would not change or delete the existing conventional functions, nor would it affect the functions of the downloaded apps, but would only lead to the optimization of many existing functions.
Therefore, the cultivation effect of the app would very likely be maintained.
And for Lin Beichen, the wish to find a way back to Earth still dominated his mind. Even if after upgrading the system, he would only have a one percent chance to find a way back, he was willing to take the risk.
He clicked on—
“Yes”.
“Ding! Special notice: This upgrade of the system will last four hours, and the update content is 1G of data. Please make sure that you have sufficient data on the phone, and keep the power sufficient.”
A new prompt box appeared.
Both requirements were met.
Lin Beichen clicked on:
“Next”.
In an instant, the Mystery Energy in his body was madly extracted toward the cell phone.
