Chapter 687 System: Have you ever thought about the possibility of becoming a puppet?

"Traveling between two worlds, I get to know new systems, new magic, and also make new friends. I have benefited a lot."

"Not to mention your lottery function."

Speaking of this, Lockhart was not only filled with emotion, but also mixed with a hint of fear.

"You can quickly acquire the other party's abilities just by relying on your favorability."

"Very domineering!"

Lockhart hesitated and commented in a domineering tone.

The system still maintains the appearance of the purple-gold ball of light, and occasionally a shallow ripple appears on the surface, which seems to indicate that the other party is listening carefully.

However, Lockhart did not dwell on the function of the lottery, but continued to change the subject: "When faced with attacks from the soul realm of evil gods such as Dormammu, it would have been difficult for me to stop them based on my personal ability."

"Your presence has built a good defense wall for me."

"..."

Lockhart went on to talk about how the system helped him.

However, it stopped abruptly before saying what time it was.

Because, he found that he seemed to have little understanding of the system because he did not rely on the system's behavior.

I don’t know, should this be called good news or bad news?

"System, you helped me a lot."

"However, I personally believe that there is no free pie in the sky."

"If you regard your previous help to me as an investment, then you will definitely want something in return."

Having said this, Lockhart paused in silence, staring at the purple-gold light ball system in front of him.

What he said was already quite explicit.

He chose to be honest with the system in this situation, and naturally he had a perfect escape route.

His body, which is condensed only by the concept of existence, must exist unless everyone's knowledge of him is eliminated.

If the system can really surpass Ancient One, Odin, and many evil gods and other powerful people in the Marvel world, it will eliminate his existence, his memory, and his cognition.

He could only admit it.

After all, if you want to seize food from the tiger's mouth, how can you do it without taking risks?

He has done everything he can

He was willing to take the gamble.

By betting on Tianjiu, he was betting that the system's capabilities were limited after all. At least, it would be impossible to die with him.

"This is my personal opinion."

"So I'd like to know what kind of reward you need."

"I'm also curious, why did you choose me in the first place? Is it because of my luck?"

Everything has a cause and effect.

There must be a reason for his time travel.

The same goes for system bindings.

Otherwise, there are so many worlds and almost infinite life, why choose him?

After the words fell, Lockhart continued to remain silent, as if waiting for the system's answer.

"invest?"

"That's a good word to use!"

The familiar mechanical sound of the system sounded.

"That's okay if you think so."

After Lockhart heard this, he felt slightly excited.

If you agree with the logic of investment, then it means there is more to talk about.

At this moment, suddenly...

"But, host, have you ever thought about the possibility of becoming a puppet?"

Of course, this is what worries me the most.

Lockhart said silently in his heart why he chose to strip away his soul and true spirit.

It’s not just that the worry system has been around for a long time and is deeply rooted.

If the other party really manipulates him and turns him into a puppet, he will be really hard to guard against.

However, what the system just said made Lockhart feel slightly relieved.

Because although the system maintains the familiar mechanical sound, it can still hear the tone that sounds like a smile but not a smile.

To make a joke, or to say something about a past possibility in a joking way.

Lockhart naturally smiled and replied: "It would be too false to say that I don't have such worries."

"But I believe that working with me will definitely bring greater benefits than being a mere puppet."

Lockhart's words made the purple-gold ball of light move up and down slightly, as if nodding in agreement.

"Indeed, host, you are a genius."

"Putting it among all the worlds, it will definitely rank among the best."

Lockhart was not lost in the praise of the system.

He just quickly asked: "So, can you tell me what you want now?"

"If it can be done, I'd be more than willing to help."

"Host, you are doing very well now, keep up the good work." The system did not give a clear reply, just an encouragement.

Lockhart naturally continued to ask: "Besides the original power, what else are you interested in?"

"If there is any, I will ask people to pay attention to sorting it out in the later stage."

Lockhart once again showed his goodwill and expressed his willingness to trade.

He hopes that this time a clear communication and transaction mechanism can be established with the system.

Don't be vague, and don't mix too much human feelings.

Pure exchange of interests, in Lockhart's opinion, seems to be the most reliable at the moment.

He doesn't expect to get many benefits from the system.

After all, traveling between the two worlds brought enough benefits to Lockhart.

He only hopes for one thing now, that is, the system can temporarily separate from his soul, the true spirit.

Let him have control of his life.

At least, there is no longer the possibility of the soul being secretly manipulated and turned into a puppet anytime and anywhere.

"Host, if you want to trade, energy of the same quality as the original power can also be used."

The system stated part of its request, but did not say anything else.

Lockhart, of course, nodded in agreement.

"I'm a little curious, host." The system said, "Why did you choose a difficult path."

"I can also help you if necessary."

Obviously, Lockhart's idea of creating a way forward for mages still attracted the attention of the system.

Lockhart's previous explanation did not satisfy the system.

So, asking again.

Lockhart, after pondering for a moment, expressed part of his thoughts: "I personally dislike the relationship between dimensional gods and believers."

"Very morbid."

Lockhart used the word morbid to describe it.

Showing his contempt for followers of gods and mages.

"Besides, I have many good friends in Kamal Taj where I am."

"If one day in the future, the other party has to choose to be hostile because of the relationship between gods."

Speaking of this, Lockhart's tone clearly showed some emotion.

The system of believers in gods looks very beautiful.

Believers can become stronger in a short period of time, and gods can also use this to further control their authority.

If you look closely, you will find that God controls everything.

Believers just put the food last.

This is a deformed cultivation system.

It can be seen from the fact that almost no mage has become a single-dimensional god in recent years.
