At this moment, in front of the Jiuyang Restaurant on the North-South Street of Juxia City

A black-haired boy stopped writing in his mind and turned his head to look at the snow-white ball floating beside him:

"Xiaoxue, is this okay?"

The snowflakes swayed gently, as if nodding:

"Okay, that's enough. Now you just need to wait here quietly for a while, and someone will come to pick you up for dinner."

"Okay! I understand. We'll be able to eat soon." The black-haired boy, Su Bai, nodded vigorously, his expression extremely serious.

Clearly, the word "eating" held immense appeal for him.

Xiaoxue sighed inwardly.

It's all its own fault.

Since it was his first mission, he was momentarily careless while traversing time and space, failing to protect Su Bai's soul, which resulted in damage to him and affected his will.

Simply put, he's become an idiot.

I used to be able to slack off occasionally, but now I have to be responsible for the whole process from start to finish.

Fortunately, writing in his diary helped him slowly recover his spirit.

Until then, just protect him well.

"Before Qilin arrives, claim your first-time diary entry gift pack. Then I'll show you which parts of the gift pack I won can be revealed at my discretion."

Xiaoxue thought for a moment and then said to Su Bai.

"I have to write more? I'm so tired..." Su Bai suddenly deflated, but still obediently did as instructed.

He knew Xiaoxue wouldn't harm him—as for why he was so sure…

Yeah, it's probably just intuition! That's right, that's it.

In the consciousness space, Su Bai opened the system panel and pressed to claim the "Newbie Gift Pack".

The gift package was unfolded, revealing several items.

After taking a closer look, Xiaoxue turned to Su Bai and gestured for him to continue writing in his diary.

On the streets of Juxia City

Qi Lin, who was driving, suddenly paused.

"Huh? Another update?"

The diary in the passenger seat opened automatically again, and she immediately understood.

I'm driving right now, so it's inconvenient for me to read.

Just as she thought of this, the diary suddenly transformed into a stream of light and disappeared straight into her mind.

Qi Lin was so frightened that she slammed on the brakes.

Fortunately, there were few vehicles on this section of the road, otherwise there would have been a real accident.

"The diary has been updated again?" Keisha and He Xi, who were sifting through information and trying to find the record of the person named "Su Bai", looked up at the same time.

Rui Mengmeng also curiously picked up the diary—since it was her day off, this diary was quite interesting to read.

Their gazes fell back on the pages of the book:

[So tired... Xiaoxue gave me a newbie gift pack and told me to write down some of the content for my future "external brains" to see.]

New player gift pack!

It really is a system?

Hmm, when will Qilin arrive? I'm hungry...

Upon seeing this, Qi Lin, who was driving, couldn't help but smile.

Are you in such a hurry? Don't worry, your sister Qilin will be here soon.

The first reward is an ability—"Spatial Ability." It allows for teleportation without loading screens or coordinates; as long as the location is remembered, it can be used to travel directly, even with photographs. It can be used to construct alternate dimensions or to fight enemies. Xiaoxue says, "With it, I can go anywhere anytime."

I also think this is great! This way I can eat whatever I want right away!

The second reward is called "Tune of Music." The ability is... to gain an immortal, ageless body... Does that mean I'll become a zombie? And even if I die, I can be reborn, I have no fatal weaknesses, and I can control others through the "Red Spider Lily."

[However, Xiaoxue said this is simply immortality, not turning into a zombie. Zombies are so ugly, I don't want to become one. Hmm... if I become a zombie, I won't be able to eat anything delicious!]

[The third type, with a rather strange name, is called Your Floating Combat Intuition. The description says that the combat experience of a powerful being from another world will transform into your body's instincts.]

Merlo Heaven

He Xi's slender fingers lightly tapped the diary page, his gaze slightly narrowed:

"Spatial abilities, immortality, plus the combat experience of a powerful opponent... Ha, this is practically an invincible setup from the start."

Keisha nodded seriously:

"Indeed. With these abilities, his survival is no longer an issue. And this spatial ability... seems to be different from what we know."

A burning light flashed in He Xi's eyes:

"To reach a target location simply by having a corresponding image in one's memory, or even just a photograph... this completely overturns existing rules of physics. I really want to study the underlying theoretical mechanisms..."

Keisha ignored her best friend's eager expression, her gaze remaining fixed on the second ability:

"Simply being immortal and never aging is not unusual. In a sense, you and I have already achieved this state."

She paused, her tone turning somber:

"What I'm more concerned about is the ability to 'control others through the spider lily.' Just how far can it go? Could even you and I... be affected?"

He Xi remained silent for a moment.

This is indeed an issue that cannot be avoided.

Then, a smile reappeared on He Xi's face.

"Don't think too badly of things. Isn't he looking for an 'external brain'? Why don't you, tomboy, sacrifice yourself and bring it out for this kid in a heartbeat?"

Keisha rubbed her temples helplessly.

"The situation is still unclear. What if the other side is actually a cunning old fox? And why don't you sacrifice yourself?"

He Xi shrugged.

"Look, you just said it yourself, the situation isn't certain yet. Since the goal isn't clear, isn't it a waste of time to be anxious now?"

"As for sacrificing myself... it's not out of the question. If he really needs an 'external brain,' I wouldn't mind training him."

Keisha was taken aback by his words, then chuckled softly.

"Let the little angels search carefully first."

He Xi nodded in agreement with Keisha's idea and added...

"However, we can't be too obvious. If the other party really is the same as described in the diary, like he said, and is being targeted by someone with ulterior motives... that wouldn't be good."

Meanwhile, inside the rented room, Rui Mengmeng tightly covered her mouth, afraid that she would scream.

"Wow, that's amazing..." she said softly and haltingly, her eyes filled with surprise and curiosity.

On the other side of the street, Qilin had already driven to North-South Street in Juxia City.

She parked her car across from the Jiuyang Restaurant and quickly scanned the street.

Soon, her gaze settled on a black-haired boy.

His wispy black hair brushed against his forehead, his profile was sharply defined, and his golden eyes were particularly striking in the sunlight.

As for why Qi Lin was able to recognize him as Su Bai at a glance—

Yes, just as the diary says: after his soul was damaged, he exuded an undeniable "dullness." His eyes, in particular, shone with an almost innocent clarity.

Immortal and indestructible... and possesses such power...

Qi Lin's heart was pounding.

She was afraid that it was all a scam and that she might be falling into a carefully laid trap;

Yet, the thought that "superpowers might actually exist" stirred an irrepressible flutter in my heart.
