Chapter 2919: Why Are You Looking At Me?
The people in the restaurant were all task-takers. There were both men and women, young and old.
Ning Shu even noticed a child that looked no more than eight.
A child this small was also a task-taker?
The child looked serious and mature, wearing an ancient scholar’s robe.
With its wide sleeves, it looked so cute.
The child noticed Ning Shu looking at him, put down his chopsticks, and walked over to her. He bowed in the ancient manner and asked, “Why are you looking at me?”
Seeing that the child was from ancient times, Ning Shu stood up to return the bow. “You caught my eye so I looked over a few more times.”
The child seemed very polite. “Is it because I’m young?”
“Yes,” Ning Shu nodded.
“How old are you, and how long have you been a task-taker?” She gestured for the child to sit down and ordered a plate of pastries for him.The child cupped his hands in salute to Ning Shu and picked up one of the pastries.
“I became a task-taker at nine. I don’t know how long I’ve been alive. It’s probably been a long time.”
Ning Shu: …
It seemed he had been a task-taker for a long time. Just like Ning Shu, he stayed in each world for just a period so it was hard to tell how long they’ve lived.
Although Ning Shu’s stats panel said she was 27 years old, Ning Shu felt she was at least over a hundred years old.
She generally spent two to three years in each world and after experiencing so many, she was at least a hundred years old if not two hundred.
Ancient era people tended to gain wisdom early. The fact that he was only nine was not that strange.
But dying at the age of nine was very early. It was clearly a premature death.
“Thank you for the pastry,” the child cupped his hands towards Ning Shu.
Even though he had already become a task-taker, he still had the manners and etiquette of an ancient-era person. It was deeply ingrained in his bones.
The child didn’t tell Ning Shu his name, and after a brief chat, he left.
After the child left, Ning Shu bought some snacks and strolled around, eating as she walked. After strolling for a while, she slowly returned to the system s.p.a.ce.
The chat system dinged, indicating someone had sent her a message. It was Mei Ziqing, replying to her message.
Ning Shu ate her snacks and opened the chat system.
Mei Ziqing: Congratulations on becoming an ultra task-taker…
Ning Shu: I want to ask about the ordinance s.p.a.ce.
Mei Ziqing: The ordinances s.p.a.ce? It’s a place created by the higher-ups to help task-takers comprehend the ordinances. Only ultra task-takers can enter.
Mei Ziqing: So you must pa.s.s the trial task! Even if it’s just by the skin of your teeth. If you can’t enter the ordinances s.p.a.ce, the gap between you and other ultra task-takers will only widen.
Ning Shu heaved a long sigh. It seemed that this trial task was a matter of life and death.
She told Mei Ziqing in a tone of despair: I have three linked tasks…
Mei Ziqing: …
Mei Ziqing: Don’t be scared. Many ultra task-takers are in the same situation, doing linked tasks. I once saw someone who had acc.u.mulated up to ninety.
Ning Shu: Pfft! Ninety linked tasks…
Ning Shu: Is it very difficult to enter the ordinances s.p.a.ce?
Mei Ziqing: It is, and the ordinances are not easy to comprehend. I’ve been in the ordinances s.p.a.ce for so long, but I still haven’t comprehended any ordinances.
Mei Ziqing: And I usually add all my attributes to intelligence, but I still haven’t comprehended any ordinances. The h.e.l.l!?
Ning Shu couldn’t help but laugh. As expected, becoming powerful wasn’t something that could be achieved overnight.
Ning Shu: Is it very difficult to comprehend?
Mei Ziqing: …It’s not just difficult; it’s extremely difficult. Powerful ordinances like time and s.p.a.ce are out of the question, but even simpler ordinances…
I can’t even comprehend simple ordinances like wind and water, cries~~~~
Ning Shu sighed. Even those who could get to the ordinance s.p.a.ce struggled with comprehending the ordinances, so if she couldn’t enter the ordinance s.p.a.ce, her chances of comprehending the ordinances would be pretty much moot.
