Chapter 2586: Should Be Able to Pass
“I was probably eliminated four times. It should be four times max,” said Ning Shu confidently.
There was one time in the school campus world, one time in that half-human half-demon world, and that one time when Psycho eliminated her.
She had two tasks that were only 80% complete. In the past, most were all 100%.
Ning Shu let out a long sigh. “I feel like I should be able to pass.”
“Then I’m going to hand in the data. Are you sure?” 2333 asked.
“Aren’t you supposed to be the one paying attention to this kind of thing?”
“Why did they want to eliminate task-takers?” asked Ning Shu.
2333 said, “If one person wasn’t able to complete a task, then another task-taker has to take over.”
“That means a plane might be entered multiple times. Every time a task-taker enters the plane, it damages it on some level. If the task was not completed the first time and another task-taker enters the world for the same task, it would inflict double the damage on the plane.”
“That’s why unqualified task-takers must be eliminated,” 2333 explained.
“They’re directly eliminated? Why can’t they have a chance to reincarnate?” It was inhumane.
2333 sighed and said, “The moment you step onto this path, it’s a road of no return. You can only continue onwards. If there are too many paths of retreats, no one would take it seriously. After all, if you failed there was still a protective talisman. If you were fired, you can still reincarnate. Things like this are too good to be true.”
“Ning Shu, we can only bite the bullet and keep charging forward.”
Ning Shu took a deep breath. There was no way to change the rules, so one could only adapt to them.
Constructing her own world really was the most urgent priority. Once she had her own world, at least she wouldn’t be eliminated so easily.
But where was she supposed to find the world origin powers? It was so stressful!
She had to calm down. The moment one panicked, things tended to go wrong.
“Phew. We’re fine this time,” said 2333.
“This time? There’s going to be a next time?” Ning Shu didn’t dare to relax at all.
“There definitely will be and each time, they’re going to get rid of a batch of people.”
Ning Shu: …
Mommy, the world is so dangerous…
Hopefully when the next cleaning came around, she would have already constructed her own world and wouldn’t need to panic so much.
She sat cross-legged on the sofa. The fact that she had survived until now was already a pretty good deal. She just wondered if she would be able to see her parents again in this life.
The flow of time and each plane was different, so she had no idea how her parents were doing now.
Ning Shu lay down on the sofa and decided to take a nap. After all, no matter how much she worried, it was useless.
She felt much better by the time she woke up. She had survived this catastrophe and could live for a while longer.
Work hard, ganbatte!
She moved her neck and picked up a book from the bookshelf to read.
After finishing it, she placed it back on the shelf and said to 2333, “Let’s go do a task. What plane do you think a world origin power is most likely to appear in?”
“Every plane can have one, but not every plane does. It’s difficult for these types of things to form, otherwise, it wouldn’t be so precious,” said 2333. “Depends on your luck.”
Ning Shu: …
Her luck was crap.
Hopefully, all the points she added to luck would do something.
Hopefully, she would be able to encounter a world origin power.
“Let’s do a task.” The only way she could become stronger was by doing tasks.
As of now, her only desire was to survive. When survival itself was a problem, everything else could wait.
She’d crush anything that stood in the way of her goal.
Ning Shu felt a moment of dizziness, then she had entered the task world.
Kaho’s comment: NS’s approach to the system layoffs is pretty much how I’m trying to approach my current company’s layoffs (2022-2023). Survived 3 rounds so far, at least I have other opportunities I can seek out even if I go down in a future round. Best of luck to everyone facing similar situations! Keep your chin up!
