【Completion Reward: 10%】

[Failure penalty: unknown]

As she finished her words, Gu Ruoxue found Su Cheng standing there in a daze. Although his eyes were open, they were unfocused. He seemed to be lost in deep thought, isolated from the outside world.

She pursed her red lips slightly, and after a brief thought, she realized that it might be the content of the system that suddenly popped up in her mind as mentioned before.

That is what he called the system panel/task or something like that that only he could see.

It seems like completing tasks and getting rewards?

Unlocked the next stage by the way?

Thinking of this, although she was also very curious, she just stood there quietly, waiting patiently for him to wake up.

After a long time, Su Cheng's eyes gradually regained focus. When he saw the stunningly beautiful girl in front of him, he conjured a gold ring out of thin air from his palm and handed it to her.

ring?

Gu Ruoxue blinked and looked at the rusty gold ring, feeling a little puzzled, but she soon came to her senses, raised her head, and asked seriously and calmly: "Is this the system reward you mentioned?"

"Yes, but the system didn't explain it in detail. It only told me that it was a [Rusty Gold Ring]."

Su Cheng had a very strange look on his face, because in his impression, the items rewarded by the system must be extremely awesome.

For example, weapons, martial arts or other special functions, but not this junky thing, which not only looks cheap, but is actually called a "rusty gold ring"?

He can accept even a gold ring!

But this rusty thing is obviously not pure gold!

So, this made him a little embarrassed, after all, this system brought shame to him.

Before, he praised his system as the best in the world.

But I didn't expect this reward to be so disappointing.

But no matter what, this is a system reward and should have special effects, so he explained: "Don't look at this ring because it is rusty. But it is a reward from the system. In our host world, there is an old saying that goes, "System products must be top-notch."

Su Cheng tried hard to create an air of dignity, but in reality, it was just to cover up the embarrassment and make himself look less embarrassed.

"Oh, is it so?"

Gu Ruoxue tilted her head slightly, bent her index finger and placed it on her chin, and carefully examined the ring on the palm of her hand with an extremely serious expression.

At such a close distance, smelling the fragrance coming from Gu Ruoxue, coupled with her face that was so cute that it was unfair under the moonlight, Su Cheng's heart was moved and he felt a little dazed.

However, when he saw the confusion on her face, he immediately sat up straight and said seriously: "I don't have a light. Since you have a cell phone, please help me see if there is anything special."

"Ok."

Gu Ruoxue was also very curious, because the ring looked like an ordinary gold ring with impurities, but since Su Cheng said so, she would not be polite.

So she carefully picked up the gold ring with her fingers, placed it in the palm of her hand, then took out her cell phone, turned on the flashlight and shone it towards the gold ring.

Under the light, the rust on the gold ring became more obvious, which made Su Cheng, who was watching from the side, feel a little irritated.

Gu Ruoxue frowned and observed for a while, then turned her gaze to Su Cheng: "I didn't find anything special, and the purity of the gold is very low. It obviously contains impurities or alloy elements, which leads to poor antioxidant properties and this effect."

After saying this, she took back her phone and looked at Su Cheng with suspicion, as if wondering what he was up to. Was he deliberately lying to her?

But the key point is that Su Cheng didn't lie.

This made her feel conflicted.

"Cough cough."

Su Cheng was looked at with such eyes, and he immediately felt guilty and dared not look at her face. He coughed twice and forced himself to remain calm: "In the fantasy world, usually objects like this kind of ring need to drip blood to recognize the owner before its function can be activated."

"Recognize the Lord by shedding blood."

Gu Ruoxue was stunned when she heard this, then she handed the ring back to Su Cheng and said seriously: "In that case, then try it yourself."

Su Cheng was a little surprised to see the other party's reaction. He didn't expect that her brain was working so fast that she grasped the essence of things without much explanation.

Recognize the Lord with a drop of blood.

As the name suggests, whoever sheds blood is the owner.

Moreover, the key point was that she did not feel greedy for the so-called system reward. Instead, she returned it to him without any hesitation, without even asking any questions.

The other party was probably so curious because he wanted to verify the truth of what he said. After all, a system space ability cannot prove everything. Although he refuted everything with the system space ability, the other party still had doubts.

After he took the ring, he shook his head slightly, handed it back, and said to Gu Ruoxue: "You try it. I guess this ring item should have the same storage function as my system space. I already have it, and another one is just icing on the cake. I might as well give it to you to try. If it is true, and you try it yourself, I think you should be able to let down your guard against me, right?"

After hearing this, Gu Ruoxue suddenly fell silent. After a moment, she slowly shook her head. At the same time, she opened her pink lips and spoke clearly: "Although I am curious and confused, I will not take it for myself."

This answer surprised Su Cheng for a moment, but he quickly adjusted himself and continued with a smile: "Since you said we have a common enemy, we are also partners and friends, and you helped me with this reward. So it is natural that this reward belongs to you. If you don't want it, I will have to sell it~"

After hearing this, Gu Ruoxue was quite surprised and moved. She didn't expect that the other party would use her previous words to convince him.

And she could tell that he was joking about selling it, but this also made her realize something. That is, this is definitely not something to joke about. Just thinking, if this ring really has the so-called space storage function...

Then, if Su Cheng accidentally showed up in the world, it would definitely cause a series of huge changes...

Even more serious is provoking territorial and border wars...

For some reason, after she thought of this, she always felt cold all over and couldn't help but hug her arms and shiver.

So, Gu Ruoxue did not look at the ring again, but looked at Su Cheng instead. She showed an unprecedented solemn expression: "You can promise me... No... You must promise me."

"Promise what?"

Su Cheng saw that she was serious as if facing a great enemy, and vaguely guessed something in his heart.

"If this is really a system tool as you said, then my request is that if you use this ability that clearly exceeds ordinary people's cognition in the future, please tell me and convince me!"

She took a deep breath and looked at Su Cheng with burning eyes, her tone and expression extremely cautious and serious.

Seeing this, Su Cheng was stunned for a moment, then his mouth curled up and he showed a bright smile. He took the gold ring, raised it up, and shook it at Gu Ruoxue: "I promise you, you can rest assured, because I have never thought of using the system to do anything bad. Believe me."

When Gu Ruoxue heard his last sentence, the vigilance on her face relaxed, but after getting the answer, she seemed to lose strength. She closed her eyes and breathed lightly.

"Of course I believe you..."

Gu Ruoxue raised her head, as if injected with new strength. Her originally cold and sharp gaze turned into a soft and warm color, like a lake under the winter sun, calm, beautiful, holy and peaceful.

However, Su Cheng next to him was sure that this was definitely a smile that he would remember for the rest of his life.

It lingered in his mind until he came to his senses and then quickly looked away.

"Thank you for agreeing to my willful request."

"You're welcome. We are friends and partners."

Having said that, Su Cheng handed the ring to her again, the meaning was obvious.

"it is good."

Gu Ruoxue's face returned to its cold look. Without hesitation, she stretched out her slender jade fingers to grasp the ring, placed it in her palm, and prepared to drip blood on the ring to recognize its ownership.

Su Cheng was also watching from the side at the right time.

"Have you got a knife or a needle?"

"No, it's the same if you put your hand in your mouth and bite the skin."

Gu Ruoxue hesitated.

Biting your fingers with your teeth or something.

...I really can’t praise this style of painting.

I feel a little ashamed for some reason.

Su Cheng saw her hesitation and couldn't help laughing. He just said it casually, so he said, "Are you afraid of pain? Forget it, I'll give you the injection tomorrow when we get home."

"Do not."

Gu Ruoxue shook her head, pursed her lips, stretched out her jade finger, gently placed it between her teeth, bit her fingertips, and closed her beautiful eyes.

next second...

"hiss--"

Su Cheng's heartbeat quickened when he heard the sound. He cursed himself for his bad taste, then pretended to be nothing and whispered, "Drop it on the ring!"

Gu Ruoxue opened her eyes and after hearing his words, she immediately followed his instructions, placed her index finger on the ring, and gently pinched her finger...

Suddenly a drop of bright red blood flowed out, and just as it was about to drip onto the ring, both of them opened their eyes wide, wanting to witness the miracle that was to follow.

But to their disappointment, the blood did not absorb the ring after it dripped onto it. Instead, it slid down the ring’s surface onto their palms…

Seeing that there was no change, Gu Ruoxue couldn't help but frown and looked at Su Cheng with a suspicious expression.

Su Cheng awkwardly withdrew his gaze, tilted his head to one side, pretended to be stupid, and made a strange sound: "Ding - recognition of the master is successful."

Gu Ruoxue looked at Su Cheng's so-called system prompt sound expressionlessly, then rubbed her forehead with a headache. She found that she seemed to have been fooled again.

"Quick, try the ability of the ring. Put on the ring and silently say in your mind that you want to receive items." Su Cheng forced a smile and urged her to try. He was now too embarrassed to face anyone and had decided to give it a try.

"For the time being, I will trust you again."

Hearing this, Gu Ruoxue took a deep breath, casually put it on her ring finger, then took out her cell phone, closed her eyes, and silently put the phone into the ring.

But to their surprise, it really disappeared the next second!

Gu Ruoxue opened her eyes in surprise, because the phone in her hand really disappeared out of thin air...

This time, even she was shocked.

Could this really be the ring's special spatial ability?

Gu Ruoxue blinked a few times dully, watching the phone disappear in her hand, and she finally believed that this ring really had this special ability.

At this moment, her mood was extremely complicated.

"and many more!"

She suddenly remembered that Su Cheng had just used his mouth to make the sound of successful recognition, so she suspected that Su Cheng took advantage of her closing her eyes and used his ability to remotely control and put it into his system space!

However, when she looked up, she found that Su Cheng was even more shocked than her, staring at her empty right hand with a look of as if he had seen a ghost.

Soon, Su Cheng came back to his senses, swallowed his saliva, and said quickly: "The same applies to taking out things!"

Gu Ruoxue heard this, this time she did not close her eyes, but stared at her right hand, trying to see clearly how to make something appear in her hand...

After a moment, she opened her eyes wide, not quite believing her own eyes...

The cell phone really appeared out of nowhere...

Without any warning or reason, the phone just lay quietly in her palm in an instant, even though the weight in her hand made her clearly feel the presence of the phone.

But it still feels unreal.

Although I have seen Su Cheng try it many times before, this kind of personal experience is another concept. After all, it is a personal experience.

Gu Ruoxue took a deep breath, then slowly exhaled, trying hard to suppress her inner excitement. She then tried it carefully several times before she raised her head and looked at Su Cheng.

At this moment, Su Cheng raised his head, put his hands on his hips, and smirked his mouth, looking proud. His handsome face was full of smugness. He looked at her proudly with a cocky and arrogant attitude and said, "Do you believe it now? I'm a time traveler! Men like me are called the protagonists in novels!"

Su Cheng's tone was exaggerated, and his expression was even more exaggerated, as if he was feeling very proud.

However, Gu Ruoxue did not laugh at him, nor did she deny his words. Instead, she asked him an important question: "So, Mr. elderly time traveler, what is your Phase 3 mission? And what is the deadline?"

Hearing this, Su Cheng suddenly felt like a deflated ball, his head drooping, feeling a little embarrassed and awkward. He coughed a few times to hide his emotions before saying, "Uh... we need to have a further relationship. The deadline is within six days."

"This is really asking for an inch..."

Gu Ruoxue frowned. She could tell from the literal meaning how impatient the system was. After all, there were still seven stages to come!

This made her fall into deep thought, and she began to think about how to deal with the next dilemma. It had become urgent!

Su Cheng, who was standing aside, naturally knew why the other person had that expression, because he was also very shocked and surprised when he first saw him.

If stage three further means being a couple, then the following seven stages would probably start to become outrageous.

For example, stage four: engagement.

For example, stage five: marriage.

For example, stage six: the bridal chamber.

For example, stage seven: crystallization.

For example, stage eight: joint burial.

For example, stage nine: reincarnation.
