When the apocalypse first arrived, Lu Nanzhi was hiding at home, so hungry she was dizzy and too weak to stand. Then she heard a cold, mechanical voice:
[Match successful. Team chat is now available.]
Nanzhi thought she was hallucinating and casually shouted for help in her mind: "Is anyone there? Save me! Even one steamed bun would do! I'm so hungry that only my mouth is still outside the gates of the underworld, waaah!!!"
To her surprise, after she finished wailing in her head, a steamed bun appeared right before her eyes. Three of them, in fact, along with meat and vegetable dishes and soup.
Good grief, the hallucination came true! Is this how Little Red Riding Hood felt before she died?!
The young master Hua in a small house in Jiangnan had been troubled lately. He seemed to have developed a delusion.
One day, he suddenly heard a voice called the [System].
The System's tone was cold and stiff, unlike that of a living person. Stranger still, the voice seemed to come straight from inside his head, and his ears couldn't tell where it was coming from.
After the System said, [Match successful. Team chat is now available.], he heard a girl wailing.
??: Is anyone there? Save me! Even one steamed bun would do! I'm so hungry that only my mouth is still outside the gates of the underworld, waaah!!!
System: Ding! Quest received: [Teammate About to Starve to Death]. Quest success reward: One lively teammate. Quest failure reward: One corpse of a teammate who starved to death.
Hua Manlou: …
The young master Hua immediately stopped worrying about whether he was delusional. First things first, he needed to get some food.
*Not concerned with canon accuracy, may be out of character. I'm just here to have fun.
*I wanted to see what would happen if the System appeared to Hua Hua, so I gave it a try. The perspective might be a bit odd.
*The heroine has supernatural powers and hasn't read the original work.
Theme: Help one another and live in harmony.
