Chapter 154: Chapter 154 - The Final task

Zhu Kang awkwardly shuffled his feet standing close to this new hero. He had heard of how amazing Aaron’s assistant was but it was the first time he had witnessed it by himself. The man simply typed rapidly and a lot of surveillance camera feed popped up.

’Hacking really seems like a godly skill. Maybe I should learn how to.’ He watched the screen with interest.

"Can you teach me how to do that?"

Haze did not look up at him. "I can, but not right now. I will ask Aaron to give me a vacation frost/ then I will have enough time to teach you. but get this, if I deem that you don’t have talent for hacking, I will cut you lose. No hard feelings,"

"great~" Zhu Kang smirked widely.

The room was filled with only the sound of typing.

"You guys left villainy because you didn’t suit for it or did you guys have any other plans?" Haze broke that silence with a question.

"I am in college. I just want to earn money like any good citizen."

he looked up at him with a smile. "That sounds nice. I just hope every villain could think like that. all they do is wreak havoc." Haze turned back and pressed a few buttons on the walls of the room and another chair popped up beside him. "sit,"

Zhu Kang sat down looking at him. "Some might have their own situations."

he had firsthand watched how the villain was trained to be so brutal sin at a young age. he can’t even blame the young villains. all of them had their small minds brainwashed since young age to be brutal killers.

only the snakehead can be blamed for all this.

’This fuckers. I want to tear them down to the bone!’

"Not all villains are bad. But the ones who harm innocent people just for fun, those people are the ones that need to be prosecuted." Haze shrugged. "I guess that’s my view on them." he pulled up the feed for the eighty villains on the screen and each and every one of them had a black bag with them.

The villains all started to move into the city in various positions. They were all spread out.

"are they planting bombs?"

"don’t know. Wait a bit," he hurriedly sent a message to Aaron.

Zhu Kang watched as the situation progressed in a dangerous route. the civilians had yet to be evacuated. If the villains detonated their bombs in all these locations the whole city will be blown up in seconds.

His heart started to pound loudly in his ears.

’System! Hey system! Come out!’

{’beep, system activated. Host, what is it?’}

’Give me some tasks. Anything. I need to earn money oh and also search for any equipment that can nullify bombs. Go!’

{’wait calculating previous task rewards...}

’What previous task? I didn’t perform anything though...’ Zhu Kang frowned slightly.

{’the task ’become one with the target character’ has been completed. 150 coins credited to the account. Also, the task ’save the damsel in distress’ was revalued. The authorization to send rewards for it has passed. 50 coins credited to the account.’}

Zhu Kang’s eyes slightly widened.

The system had a set of rules too. if a certain target task is not met the same task will be dragged out for the following days until it is completed. the task becomes ’one with the target character’ appeared when ruth was trying to kidnap him. He had ignored it completely.

And now that Aaron and he... had sex.. the task was completed!

’Wow, a meat pie just fell on my lap.’ He rubbed his hands in anticipation. ’System, go on then, search for an apt device.’

{’..... beep.... Beep..... two options found.

1) Magic crystal.

Cost: 30 coins

Can nullify any bombs in a ten-kilometer radius.

Number of uses: one

2) Magic crystal-encrusted wand.

Cost: 55 coins

With a swish of this magic wand, you can nullify any bombs in a hundred kilometer radius around you~

Number of uses: one}

Zhu Kang bit his lips. The two options seemed very costly. He moved close to Haze and tugged at his sleeves. "Are you sure they are carrying bombs?"

"Our infrared sensors say so. Why do you ask?"

"I have a way to stop it remotely. But I can only nullify up to a hundred kilometers around me."

Haze’s eyes shimmered brightly. "great~ do it! the villains are in your range,"

Zhu Kang closed his eyes and brought the magic wand. It cost a fortune but if this could delay the villains just a bit until the civilians were saved then it was worth it.

The wand appeared out of nowhere and landed on his lap.

Haze’s eyes widened. "Where did it come from?"

"Somewhere far," Zhu Kang glanced at the wand. It was a bright fluorescent pink plastic wand with a huge star-shaped plastic gem on top of it. ’This is the legendary bomb difuser? Are you kidding me? I can get this at the dollar store. Why did I spend so much for such a cheap quality?’

{host the products from the market place might look ordinary but they all have extraordinary powers. Please don’t underestimate it.}

’yeah yeah.’ Gritting his teeth, Zhu Kang waved the wand. ’Come on wand defuse all the bombs around me’

The gem shone slightly and after just one swing the handle broke off into two pieces and fell on his lap.

Haze looked at the broken wand in a dull manner. "you must get better quality products to perform magic tricks.... Tsk," he started to type rapidly.

Dazedly Zhu Kang picked up the broken wand. ’did it do it?’

{’yes the bombs have been defused.’}

’Good. Good...’ he grinned widely. ’Hey system you are not so bad after all...’

{’I am the best~’}

’shut up. do something else for me. find me that same medicine I gave Aaron oh and also find me a potion to cure insanity.’

The system beeped slowly and showed him that elixir’s info again. he brought it for fifty coins.

Watching his coin reserve deplete in front of his eyes hurt his poor heart.

{’purifying quartz, 20 coins.

Can cure any mental-related issues.}

’Get me two of those,’

Two small pink crystals and a small vial appeared out of air. Haze did not notice it this time.

Zhu Kang stuffed the potion and the crystals in his pocket. By the end of his shopping spree, he was left with only ten coins. He was a pauper again.

’it’s sad being so poor. system, give me my target task.’

{beep... beep.... The final task is approaching. The other tasks have been halted. Please accept the final task.

Task: save the world

Reward: unknown.

Tien frame: 2:23:55’}

The timer kept reducing. That could only mean that he had only a few days to save the entire world.

’What happens if I don’t save the world in that time frame?’

{’mass extinction of this world’s habitat.’}

A deep chill spread through his limbs just hearing that sentence. ’Human KFC?’

{’system can’t comprehend what the host means by that.’}

’Will we be fried by Altren?’

{’that is one possibility. The other is if we don’t complete your task, you will be obliterated along with the other living creatures of this world. your soul will be Completely destroyed without any chance of reincarnation.’

Zhu Kang took a deep breath. ’Oh fuck! You’re fucking kidding me, right?’

{’system never jokes with the task.. please complete your final task successfully. good luck~’}

Zhu Kang massaged his brows. There was no way to earn any more coins. He was left with only ten or so coins. With that, he won’t be able to do much. Now that he had to complete the final task, he would need a lot of tools.

’I’m a super human. why do I need to rely on tools? I’m a tool myself.’

Zhu Kang frowned. ’Wait that sounded wrong in so many levels. Anyways, I can do this.’

He thought back to the weird dream he had. that dream was the actual real-life scenario that occurred when he was working as a system. That could only mean one thing.

He can save the world by just saving his brother’s life.

’If Gwyn is unharmed, Altren won’t blow up.’

He nodded to himself. ’Now all I have to do is protect my brother.’ he stood up.

Haze glanced at him.

"I’m heading home. My brother is there all alone.’

"Blue is with him,"

"who’s Blue?"

"oh, he is another hero. He is my assistant, hehe. Wait, I’ll call him," Haze called someone. And in a second a blue portal opened in the side walls.

Zhu Kang watched this process astonished. A Blue-suit man walked into the training room and looked around.

"where’s zain?"

"Went out to take down the snakehead headquarters." Haze answered him

"Oh," blue’s eyes then fell on him. "Nice to know you’re awake,"

"hi...." Zhu Kang awkwardly nodded. "I need one help. Can you take me back to my house? I want to be with my brother."

"umm.. I need to get that checked with Aaron first."

Zhu Kang frowned. "I’m not a child. I don’t need to be monitored..."

"I know but you are Aaron’s favorite person. If even a single hair of yours is singed, we will be dead.’ Blue said in a serious tone.

Zhu Kang blinked. Aaron was not an irritation person like that. "Look I don’t have time to explain. I need to be with my brother right now. if you don’t take me through that Blue thing or I will fly back home,"

"that’s even more dangerous,"

"I’ll take a cab,"

"We are under lock down," Blue said blinking.

"Then I’ll walk,"

Blue glanced at Haze.

"Just take him home. That’s Aaron’s place. He would have a lot of security measures in place." Haze mumbled defeatedly.

Sighing Blue opened the portal and gestured for him.

Smirking, Zhu Kang ran in.
