The System Is One Year Ahead Of Schedule, But It’S Not The End Of The World Yet!

Chapter 18: The Reward Repository of Walking!

Mu Xiyue was a friend that Chen Mo had met when he was working as a temporary worker. Since they were both students at the Magic City University, they became acquainted with each other.

Unexpectedly, they met again here.

"I heard that Sister Su Ya is hiring people to help clean, so I came." Upon seeing Chen Mo, Mu Xiyue's face clearly showed a subtle and imperceptible expression of joy.

Although they hadn't known each other for long, when they were working together before, Chen Mo often helped and took care of her, which made her have a good impression of Chen Mo.

"Is that so?" Chen Mo immediately turned his head to look at the boss lady who was playing with her phone behind the counter.

"Sister Su Ya, you're hiring two sanitation workers for this small teahouse, right?" Chen Mo asked with a smile.

"One is for standing guard, and the other is for one-time cleaning," Su Ya said with a smile. "Momo, you'll be in charge of one-time cleaning, and Xiao Yue will stay here and clean up whenever there are customers in the teahouse."

"You really know how to use people," Chen Mo said speechlessly.

Clearly, one person would be enough, but she insisted on hiring two people. It was evident that this boss lady was deliberately taking care of them, the hardworking and thrifty young people.

While Chen Mo was speaking, he had already scanned Su Ya and Mu Xiyue's heads.

To his surprise, he saw the rank nine title of "Rank Nine Demonic Being" on Mu Xiyue's head.

"No way? How did Xiao Yue become a Rank Nine Demonic Being?" Chen Mo thought that Mu Xiyue was the type of girl who was particularly submissive and seemed to be able to overcome any difficulties on her own. It was unexpected that such a girl would be tainted by demonic energy and grow into a Rank Nine Demonic Being with overwhelming negative energy.

This truly surprised Chen Mo.

[System prompt: Rank Nine Demonic Being detected near the host, abnormal warning! Abnormal warning! Even though this unit has been demonized, it still retains absolute goodwill towards you and can be approached. However, Demonic Beings are units contaminated by demonic energy, so please be careful during contact and avoid doing anything that may stimulate negative emotions in the other party.]

Demonic Beings were different from Corpse Monsters. Corpse Kings had completely lost their minds, so even if Lin Xinru had a good relationship with Chen Mo, the system couldn't determine that there would be no hostility.

But Demonic Beings had their sanity intact; they just had their negative energy burst due to being tainted by demonic energy. Therefore, they would generally kill anyone they encountered.

However, Mu Xiyue in front of him made Chen Mo extremely surprised. The system actually detected that even if she became a Rank Nine Demonic Being, she still retained absolute goodwill towards him. Why was that?

Chen Mo unexpectedly took a few more glances at Mu Xiyue, causing her to shyly lower her head.

Realizing that it was impolite to stare at someone, Chen Mo immediately caught up with Mu Xiyue and chatted with her. After not finding anything unusual about her, he immediately started doing his own work.

During this time, Chen Mo also didn't forget to scan the passersby on the street.

Observing the information that only he could see on top of everyone's heads.

If he could find a Rank Nine target, maybe he could interact with them and gain some benefits.

However, these Rank Nine units were not that easy to come by.

There were so many people coming and going on the street, but he didn't see a single Rank Nine.

The only Rank Nine was Mu Xiyue standing nearby.

Chen Mo didn't know how to turn Mu Xiyue's identity as a special Rank Nine Demonic Being into a tool for earning survival points.

Fortunately, they were already acquainted, and there would be plenty of opportunities for contact in the future. There was no need to rush, as it might backfire.

During the cleaning process, Chen Mo unexpectedly saw a backpack. He initially thought it was something a customer had left behind, so he opened it to check.

As a result, he found that it was full of girls' clothes.

With his keen sense of smell, he noticed that the scent on the backpack was almost identical to Mu Xiyue's.

He immediately looked curiously at Mu Xiyue and asked, "Xiao Yue, is this bag yours?"

Seeing Chen Mo picking up her backpack, Mu Xiyue hurriedly approached with a hint of panic on her face, took the backpack, blushed, and nodded, her voice as soft as a mosquito, "Yes."

Chen Mo didn't notice anything unusual and continued cleaning.

Soon, he had thoroughly cleaned the teahouse from top to bottom.

"Boss, I'm done with the chores."

"Very good, excellent. Here's your wages." Su Ya only glanced up briefly, without carefully checking, and took out 100 yuan to give to Chen Mo.

"Don't you want to check it?"

"You've been here before, can't I trust you?" Su Ya continued playing her game without even looking up.

Chen Mo could only smile helplessly.

Just as Chen Mo was putting away the wages given by Su Ya, the system prompt suddenly sounded.

[System prompt: Detected that the host has entered the nest of a Rank Five Anomalous Being and increased the cleanliness of the nest to 90%! Earned the appreciation of the Anomalous Being and rewarded with 1000 survival points and a D-level gift package.]

"The system is really casual with its rewards." Chen Mo couldn't help but laugh after hearing the system prompt.

There are rewards for this too?

Wouldn't it be better to clean up the entire street for rewards?

However, besides the titles of Demonic Being, Corpse Monster, and Metahuman, there was now the title of Anomalous Being. Chen Mo immediately became curious and investigated.

[System prompt: Anomalous Beings are special humans who have consumed anomalous fruits. Their bodies undergo monstrous transformations, but they still retain human emotions. They belong to the category of Half-Monsters. Anomalous Beings that undergo deep monstrous transformations will gradually lose their human consciousness.]

"So, the deeper the monstrous transformation, the more similar it becomes to a Corpse Monster, becoming a pure monster." Chen Mo nodded in understanding.

Today's work outside was also finished, so Chen Mo prepared to say goodbye and leave.

Before leaving, Mu Xiyue suddenly grabbed him.

"Chen Mo, I..."

"What's wrong, Xiao Yue?"

"That... I have a cellphone now..."

Chen Mo understood halfway through Mu Xiyue's words and immediately smiled, saying, "What's your phone number? Let's exchange numbers so we can contact each other when we need to."

Upon hearing this, Mu Xiyue quickly recited her phone number as if she had prepared it for a long time.

Chen Mo dialed the number and after his own number appeared on the other person's phone, he hung up and said, "Will you add a note?"

"Yes, I've learned how to do that."

When Chen Mo worked before, he had tried to add Mu Xiyue's number, but he found out that she didn't even have a cellphone, which surprised him.

Because it was already 2023, and it was unexpected for a young person to not have a cellphone.

But later, after learning about Mu Xiyue's family situation, Chen Mo understood and didn't pay much attention to it.

He didn't expect Mu Xiyue to have a cellphone now, which was convenient for exchanging phone numbers and contacting each other in the future.

A Rank Nine Demonic Being, and one that didn't harbor any hostility towards him at that. It was like a walking reward, but he didn't know how to level up.

After adding the phone number, Chen Mo finally returned home, and the busy day was finally coming to an end.

He was waiting for the settlement of the second daily task, "A Day Without Injury," so he could receive the special reward for completing all the daily tasks.
