Chapter 1366: Chapter 1366: The Moment from This Instant to the Next

"Brother Jade Mirror, could you please explain it more clearly?"

She simply couldn’t understand it—what on earth was this thing, theoretically speaking?

"For those who are not the master of the contract, the cost of entering the Golden Pearl Pavilion is relatively high," explained Brother Jade Mirror.

"How high exactly? Will it cause internal injuries? Will someone be locked inside and unable to come out?" Lin Caisang asked, even citing a few examples.

Of course, it was none of those things.

"For those who are not the master of the contract and wish to enter the master’s Golden Pearl Pavilion, apart from needing the master’s approval, they will need one hundred merit points for each entry, and every minute inside consumes an additional ten merit points."

Brother Jade Mirror explained it a bit more clearly this time.

Seeing these words, Lin Caisang couldn’t help but raise her eyes and roll them dramatically.

So, aside from the master, anyone wanting to stay in the Golden Pearl Pavilion for a minute needed to complete one hundred and ten virtual tasks!

The Golden Pearl Pavilion, didn’t it want to be a little too clever?!!!

"Whether you explain it or not, it’s all in vain!" she said, not looking pleased.

With one hundred and ten merit points, she could almost stay in the Golden Pearl Pavilion for close to an hour; with her memory, she would surely be able to remember a lot of the knowledge she desired to acquire.

Of course, that would be if she really had a lot of merit points...

"Brother Jade Mirror, apart from entering the Golden Pearl Pavilion, what else can merit points be used for?" she asked.

’Temporarily... nothing.’ Brother Jade Mirror displayed these four characters, followed by a large ellipsis.

In other words, the Jade Mirror itself didn’t know of any other use for merit points just yet—perhaps it would in the future, and perhaps they would be useful then.

"One last question, Brother Jade Mirror, if I take on a virtual task and spend a long time completing it in that specific space, can I come back first?"

She asked.

’Virtual tasks are not time-bound,’ Brother Jade Mirror replied with the same line of text he had shown before.

Lin Caisang still didn’t understand what the "not time-bound" meant.

"What do you mean by ’not time-bound’?" she asked.

’In the virtual task, even if you and your assistant spend a hundred years inside, it would only be the blink of an eye in reality; that’s all there is to it,’ explained Brother Jade Mirror.

Seeing these words, Lin Caisang’s beautiful eyes suddenly widened in astonishment.

So, virtual tasks could be played like this? That meant, when the time came, she could just bring Brother Molian along, and they could take on as many virtual tasks as they wanted.

After all, it wouldn’t take any real time!

"Alright, it’s settled then. I’ll come another day to take on virtual tasks; I need to do several to make it count."

Having said that, she went back up Manghuang Mountain.

...

Liu Family.

Liu Yushui had just learned of Lin Caisang’s return and originally wanted to take the children to visit the Lin Family, but she couldn’t manage with one child in her arms, another on her back, and still two more to drag along.

She was thinking of waiting for her husband, Lin Dama, to return before going to the Lin Family.

But who would have expected that before Lin Dama arrived, she saw a group of people rushing over, the leader looking fierce and terrifying, and the old man he was carrying was someone she recognized.

"Grandfather, how did you—ah!"

Liu Yushui was genuinely frightened as she watched the old man being thrown at her feet by the fierce and terrifying man.

"Wah!"

Lin Dama’s younger daughter was still little and started crying in fear at the scene.

"Second girl, don’t cry; mommy is here."
