Chapter 2:Daily Tasks

1951 Words
Fan Yuexing moved quietly to avoid the egg and took out the bracelet. The person in the distance who was looking for the egg was still... If he found out that the egg was in Fan Yuexing's hands, it would be impossible to explain. So Fan Yuexing pretended not to see it... "Okay, the deduction is complete, and your residence is No. 77." After the deduction was completed, Fan Yuexing's bracelet lit up for a moment, and Fan Yuexing went to her place for the next month. It was a one-room and one-living room. The house was not big, but it was enough. Fan Yuexing didn't have many things. Now the most important thing was the egg. Fan Yuexing took the egg out and placed it on the table. "What are you?" "Why did you suddenly appear in my backpack?" The egg didn't move and played dead... Fan Yuexing lowered her eyes. She could not carry this egg out openly... Even carrying it with her might lead to accidents. Fan Yuexing didn't know how this egg appeared in her backpack unnoticed. "Without a reaction, I will cook you and eat you today." In the following time, Fan Yuexing used various methods, but still couldn't open this egg. "Like a lump of iron." Fan Yuexing was exhausted and panting, and could only give up. The silent system started to make a sound again. ["Hello..."] "Hello." Fan Yuexing stopped her actions. ["Without further ado, please explore the system panel by yourself."] After saying this, the system disappeared. What Fan Yuexing saw in front of her was the blue light system panel with a daily task on it. ["Daily task: Conduct a plantation! Task reward: Ordinary bread (one)"] The task seems quite simple, and the reward makes Fan Yuexing more tempted. Fan Yuexing is on the Prison Star at this time, and both food and accommodation require star coins. The system can ease the living pressure. Fan Yuexing looked through the system panel and found that there was one more thing in the backpack. ["Novice gift pack, one seed."] Fan Yuexing immediately took out the seed pack. There are probably about 200 seeds in a pack. Based on Fan Yuexing's understanding of seeds, she couldn't recognize what kind of seeds they were, but they should be seeds of some kind of vegetable. There is soil at the door. Fan Yuexing found a container, laid a layer of soil in it, watered it, creating a moist environment, and then poked small holes with her fingers. Fan Yuexing placed the seeds in it. She was cautious and only placed ten seeds. Then, she covered the surface with a layer of soil. With a ding sound, Fan Yuexing received a prompt that the task was completed. A black bread appeared in Fan Yuexing's hand. Fan Yuexing was just a little hungry and tore the bread into small pieces to taste the taste, and then ate the entire bread. The taste was ordinary, definitely healthy... That night, Fan Yuexing had a good sleep. The next day, she moved the flower pot to the balcony to let the seeds planted yesterday feel the sunshine and rain. Over one night, the seeds in the flower pot had already sprouted small green shoots, and the speed was so fast that Fan Yuexing was shocked. At the same time, as soon as she woke up, she checked the daily task of the system for the first time. ["Daily task: Earn currency. Task reward: Guide to the use of mental power."] This reward instantly excited Fan Yuexing. Mental power, unknown and powerful. At the same time, she couldn't just stay in the room every day, waiting for the system to refresh the tasks. She also should adapt to the life on the Prison Star. Fan Yuexing took a nutrient solution and drank it. The taste was ordinary, even worse than yesterday's bread. Before leaving, Fan Yuexing checked her star coins. There were still 5,000, which was enough for her to live for a long time. Her sight stopped on the egg for a moment. "Don't follow me." The door clanged shut, and Fan Yuexing went downstairs. People who first arrived at the Prison Star mostly made the same choice as Fan Yuexing, going out to look for a job. Fan Yuexing came to the place where she rented the house yesterday. The manager looked at this resident who had just arrived at the Prison Star with surprise. If she remembered correctly, she had been here yesterday, and had already rented a house. Her reappearance here meant what? Did she want to return the house? "Once the prison star residence is rented out, it will not be returned!" She said before Fan Yuexing spoke. Fan Yuexing, "..." "I'm here to look for a job." Fan Yuexing was speechless for a moment and quickly indicated her intention. "The position I hold is also not available for trading!" The administrator continued. Fan Yuexing, "..." "I don't want your job either." After Fan Yuexing explained through, she managed to make the staff at the residential management office believe that she really did not have her eyes on her iron rice bowl. Shen Yi heaved a sigh of relief. Good thing, she was just a lazy person who mixed around on the Prison Star. If someone took away her iron rice bowl, she would be finished. "You, how is your mental power?" Shen Yi looked at Fan Yuexing. Shen Yi had seen countless prisoners, and Fan Yuexing was not special, except that she was a little younger and looked rather good-looking. There was nothing particularly special about her. The girl in front of her was only about seventeen or eighteen years old. What had she done to be sent to the Prison Star? Shen Yi had been working here for several years and had long understood a truth: Those who came to the Prison Star were not good people. They might look pitiful on the surface, but in fact, they didn't know how much evil they had done behind their backs. According to the rule, she shouldn't have sympathy for this girl. But Shen Yi had a natural liking for her. Fan Yuexing shook her head. She didn't know... Shen Yi understood, her mental power must not be good. Shen Yi felt some pity in her heart. In this chaotic Prison Star, people with low mental power would only have a harder time living. "There is indeed a job, but the salary is not much. Are you sure you want to do it?" Fan Yuexing nodded, her expression remained calm as usual. She didn't have much of a choice... "Mining in the mine, it's quite tiring, but it's very safe." Fan Yuexing nodded. There should be more dangerous jobs, but those were for people with higher mental power? "Stretch out your hand, the one with the bracelet." Shen Yi sent the information to Fan Yuexing's bracelet. Fan Yuexing took the bus to the mine on the Prison Star and arrived at the prison star mine. Fan Yuexing looked at the desolate area around the mining area and fell into thought. Even though this was the Prison Star, Fan Yuexing still saw quite a lot of high technology. When did mining require manual work? Or was this a job specifically set up for the people on the Prison Star? There were many people in the mining area, but most of them were thin and weak people, as well as the elderly and children. Shen Yi also said that the salary was not high, which could explain why these people gathered here. Perhaps the stronger ones went to work in more dangerous places. "When you dig up a ore, you get five star coins." The registration staff looked at these old, disabled, and weak and just sighed... It was always these people. "The tools are here for you to collect." Fan Yuexing received a cloth bag and a shovel by queuing up. "For those who come here for the first time, it's best to find an old person to lead you." Fan Yuexing did listen, but had no intention of being obedient. She had a system, and Fan Yuexing temporarily did not want to come into contact with others. In case the system assigned a task again, or if the system wanted to give her a cheat, it would not be good if it was seen by others. And there were so many people in the mine, she just needed to follow the big group. Fan Yuexing lowered her head, listening to the people in front while remembering the route they had taken. "The ore in the mine has been decreasing recently." A man in a gray coat sighed. "There wasn't much to begin with. With so many people digging for years and months, it's a miracle that it hasn't been finished yet." Another woman complained. "The number of people last month was quite a lot. Seeing that there was no money to be made, they all went to the primitive area to pick up leaks." "I heard that there was a strange person in the primitive area who hunted and killed alien beasts but didn't take them away. As a result, everyone was waiting to pick up the leaks." "Hey, hello, are you new here?" Fan Yuexing looked up at the source of the sound. A young man with a tanned complexion was grinning at Fan Yuexing. Fan Yuexing nodded. "I can talk to you for a while?" The young man continued, and seeing that Fan Yuexing did not refuse, he stopped for two steps and walked alongside Fan Yuexing, with a somewhat shy posture. He wiped his hands on himself, "Hello, my name is Deng Yi." "Fan Yuexing." Fan Yuexing maintained a cold and aloof attitude, and would rather speak less than more. Deng Yi did not back away because of Fan Yuexing's indifferent attitude, but instead blushed and continued, "I've never seen a peer before." Deng Yi was somewhat shy. There were few people of Deng Yi's age on the Prison Star. Not everyone could commit a serious crime at the age of Fan Yuexing and then be exiled to the Prison Star. Fan Yuexing like this was the minority, and Deng Yi like this was even the minority. "You've been here for a long time?" Fan Yuexing looked at Deng Yi. Deng Yi nodded. From the conversation, Fan Yuexing learned that Deng Yi was born on the Prison Star. He had never left the Prison Star and had never seen the scenery outside. Fan Yuexing lowered her eyes. Being a prisoner since birth was quite pitiful... But Deng Yi did not have any dissatisfaction or depression. "You are here for the first time. If you trust me, you can follow me." Deng Yi lowered his voice, "I secretly tell you that I have found a place that has not been excavated and plan to keep it for myself." "But if you come, I can share that location with you." Deng Yi's eyes sparkled with excitement. Fan Yuexing's eyes flickered, and this sounded quite good. She nodded. Deng Yi smiled comfortably, "Don't think too much. I don't have any other request. I just want to talk for a while with the peer from outside. And you are just a new person and can't dig many ores." Deng Yi gave a crafty smile. Those who can live on the Prison Star all have two brushes. Fan Yuexing followed Deng Yi to turn and twist into the mine cave. "I'll go inside. You just dig here. If you encounter any problems, you can come to me." Fan Yuexing nodded.
