#457 - Asking for someone shorter
After returning to the outside world, Qin Yi began to work on a very important matter.
This matter was naturally the system's Heavenly Dao-level task.
【Heavenly Dao-level Task: Rebuild the Heavenly Court (II)】
【Rebuild the Heavenly Court: The host needs to restore the dilapidated Heavenly Court ruins to their original state.】
【Task Reward: Unknown!】
Qin Yi was still confused about this task, even after triggering it.
Restoring the dilapidated Heavenly Court ruins to their original state was no small feat.
The building materials of the ancient Primordial Heavenly Court were definitely the most top-notch materials in the entire Primordial World.
It was precisely because of the support of these top-notch materials that the Heavenly Court could still leave behind these dilapidated ruins after experiencing a full Yuanhui of 129,600 years of war.
Without the support of these top-notch materials, let alone lasting a Yuanhui, the Heavenly Court would have had difficulty lasting even a day.
It would have long been reduced to ashes in that intensity of war.
The aspects that puzzled Qin Yi about this task were as follows.
First, where to find the materials to rebuild the Heavenly Court. Qin Yi predicted that obtaining these materials in the myriad worlds would definitely not be easy.
With his cultivation level, wanting to find these top-notch materials was simply like a fool's dream.
Most importantly, the materials needed for the Heavenly Court architectural complex were not a small amount.
For such a large Heavenly Court architectural complex, it was estimated that selling the entire Tianhuang Realm would not be enough to pay for the materials.
The first point alone was already very unsolvable, and at the very least, he would have to wait until Qin Yi's cultivation level reached the Immortal Realm to make a preliminary attempt.
However, leaving this task idle like this was obviously not Qin Yi's style.
Even if he couldn't do it now, he still had to know its difficulty and the steps to restore it.
In addition to the first point above, there was also a second point.
The second point was, even if Qin Yi went through thousands of hardships and finally gathered the restoration materials.
How to restore it, how to repair it, and what was the method of repair.
Qin Yi was also completely clueless about this.
Currently, the Lan family was good at construction in his hands, but in the face of the Heavenly Court ruins, the Lan family's current construction technology was still far behind.
If the Lan family was given enough time to learn to reach the point where they could repair the Heavenly Court ruins.
Then the time span required in the middle may be so large that Qin Yi simply couldn't accept it.
Qin Yi thought back and forth in a cloud of mysteries, and finally, all his thoughts converged into one.
As the saying goes, when in doubt, call the system.
With the existence of the system by his side, when should he use it if not now.
"With the system's ability, it will definitely know how to restore the Heavenly Court, but I'm afraid it will ask for a high price," Qin Yi murmured.
Qin Yi had a deep understanding of the system's unscrupulousness and pitfall.
The system was even more adept at overcharging.
This was also the reason why Qin Yi chose to think about it himself first to see if he could solve this problem with his own strength.
Once he looked for the system, it meant that Qin Yi had completely fallen into a passive position in this matter.
With the system's increasingly shrewd intelligence, it would be able to understand Qin Yi's predicament as soon as Qin Yi opened his mouth.
At that time, the price would not be up to Qin Yi.
When a resource can be obtained through many channels, this resource is often not priced too high, and the price is negotiable.
But when a resource is firmly controlled in the hands of one party, it would be considered conscientious if the premium of this resource did not exceed the sky-high price.
Ordinary things are like this, let alone a top-level large-scale project like restoring the Heavenly Court.
Qin Yi vaguely had a premonition in his heart that he might be bled dry by the system this time.
If he didn't ask the system, it would definitely not work to leave the Heavenly Dao-level task like this.
Qin Yi recalled the system's various good points in his mind, such as: the worry-free Little Thousand World Restriction purchased with 5,000 mall points for life.
For example, when he hatched Xiaoqing at the beginning, the spirit stones consumed and the role played by Xiaoqing, it was more than worth the money now, it was simply a bargain.
Thinking of these, the tension in Qin Yi's heart calmed down slightly, and he murmured: "The system still has a good side, it still has a good side..."
With this thought in mind, Qin Yi bit the bullet, cleared his throat, and softly called out: "Calling the lovely system, calling the resourceful system, calling the kind system..."
This was the first time Qin Yi had called the system this way after calling the system so many times.
Listening to his title for the system, goosebumps fell all over Qin Yi's body...
"Integrity, shame, just defeated in the face of reality." Qin Yi thought somewhat sadly.
As the saying goes, when asking someone to do something, you are three points shorter than the other party when you come to the door.
The reason why Qin Yi called the system this way was very simple. If he made the system happy now, there would be room for bargaining in the conversation later.
Otherwise, with the system's unscrupulous personality, it would definitely ask for a sky-high price and bleed Qin Yi dry.
The next second, Qin Yi heard the system's surprised, cautious, unbelievable, suspicious, defensive... and other emotions concentrated together.
System: 【Host, I've known you for so long, this is the first time I've heard you speak human words.】
【Did you take the wrong medicine today?】
Qin Yi had a black line on his face, and the system's words instantly broke through Qin Yi's inner defense.
What do you mean he spoke human words for the first time... and took the wrong medicine...
If he didn't have to ask the system now, Qin Yi would have to argue with the system at a high level.
Qin Yi squeezed a smile from the corner of his mouth and said: "Great system..."
Before he could finish speaking, he was forcibly interrupted by the system.
System said: 【Stop, stop, stop! Host, when you call me that, I have an ominous premonition. Do you have something to ask of me?】
Qin Yi nodded and said: "Yes!"
As soon as the word "um" came out, it was decisively said by the system: 【Close relatives, clear accounts.】
【Tell me what's going on, my charges have always been reasonable.】
【But if you want me to do it for free or lower the price, don't even think about it!】
【You get what you pay for, how many mall points you give me, how much I will do.】
The fantasy in Qin Yi's heart was instantly shattered by the system's words, and Qin Yi continued unwillingly: "Cheaper, lower the price."
System firmly said: 【Impossible, absolutely impossible!】
When good words didn't work, Qin Yi began to persuade with emotion and reason:
"System, look, mall points are of no use to you at all."
"But it's different for me, I'm poor and penniless now."
"There are only 450 points left in the mall balance. If you don't make it cheaper, I'll have to live on the streets and maybe have to take a bowl and beg along the street..."
System said: 【Host, stop it.】
【I know how much assets you have better than you, the spirit stones produced by the Lan family every year are not a few.】
【In addition, there are various resource points in the Little Thousand World, and you can't find anyone richer than you at the same level.】
【Besides, you are a Dragon Gate Realm powerhouse, still living on the streets, begging along the street... are you lying to a three-year-old child with these words.】
