Getting the best from Tarkov

Chapter 140 The Origin of the System

Why is Liao Fan so sure that these two pieces of evidence can be used to create a new identity that is real, legal, and can be checked at will? This is naturally due to his trust in his own system.

Although Liao Fan's system is quite unreliable in some aspects, it is sometimes particularly reassuring.

After all, anything produced in Tarkov must be a high-quality product.

These two certificates were not obtained through sacrifice, they are the real and complete versions.

Although Liao Fan had not yet planned to use these two blank certificates, he already had a general plan in mind.

After fiddling with the last two gains, Liao Fan started to study his own body.

It is now known that the cause of problems at the genetic level is the system.

"Hello! Hello! Hello! System! Are you there? Come out and chat for a while!..."

"I say, can you make some noise?"

"Hey, hey, hey, I'm going to die! You're about to lose me, your good host!"

...

"Ding, the host has detected no external injuries or illnesses. Therefore, it has been determined that the host has a serious mental problem. The system will then initiate external intervention... Host, is there anything wrong?"

Liao Fan didn't know what words stimulated this aloof system, but he actually found that the system replied to his message for the first time. As for the first half, he chose to ignore it.

"System, as your host, why didn't you respond to my calls before? Besides smashing the golden eggs, you only appear when you're causing me trouble."

"Ding, host, please don't worry too much. The system has automatically entered a long-term low-power mode due to its own functional impairment, and will automatically shut down unnecessary modules."

"Then why are you so easy to talk to today?"

"Ding, because we have detected that there may be a serious hidden danger in the dormitory's heart, the system will temporarily activate the soothing multi-active module."

"Huh, so you think I'm crazy?"

"...Ding, please relax, host. There are no obstacles in life that cannot be overcome. Life is..."

"Stop, stop, stop! I'm not mentally ill. Stop saying these inexplicable things. Also, where did you hear all these things from? Or are these all your own creations?"

"Ding, OK host, do you have any questions?"

"Hmm? Can I ask questions now?"

"Ding, yes, the conversation function is currently enabled. The host can ask any questions for now, and the system will respond one by one according to the host's inquiries."

"Yohu? There's no restrictions on authority or level. You can ask anything."

"Ding, yes, host, please ask as soon as possible. The system's remaining energy is running low. Keeping the conversation mode on for a long time will over-consume the system's stored energy."

"Okay, let's get started. First, where are you from? What is your origin? Also, why are you running low on energy? What are you relying on to sustain your energy?"

"Ding, this system originates from a high-dimensional civilization. Originally a training system, it was destroyed for unknown reasons and is currently in a broken state. Its energy module is severely damaged and unable to recover on its own. It can only absorb various external energies, including bioenergy, chemical energy, nuclear energy, and radiation energy, on a daily basis."

"So, the reason I can eat so much right now is because you've drained away most of my energy?"

"Ding, yes, host."

"Then what are nuclear energy and radiation energy?"

"Ding, nuclear energy host can be understood as the energy released after the fusion reaction of matter. Radiation energy is the energy brought by various radiations, such as light, heat, electricity, etc."

"So I can still photosynthesize?"

"Ding, yes, the host can try to release sunlight for a long time. Currently, solar energy is the most abundant energy source provided by the host."

"...Okay, let's not dwell on that for now. Let me ask you, what is a training system?"

"Ding, the system was originally designed to cultivate talent. The creator of the system will implant it into a specific target. After the target host obtains the system, they can use the system's advent function to travel into any carrier of their choice, thereby quickly learning certain skills or knowledge."

"So according to you, when you are in your complete state, I can choose the destination I travel to or descend into?"

"Ding, yes."

"Well, I thought you were so amazing, but it turns out you're just an educational aid, used to cultivate elites. So, you chose me because I'm excellent enough, right?"

"...Ding, please don't over-interpret this. Do you have any other questions? If not, the system will enter standby mode again."

"Yes, yes, yes! Don't leave yet. Why are you in such a hurry? It's just that you're out of energy. I promised you I'd get five hours of sunlight every day from now on. Isn't that enough? How long can your remaining energy last?"

"Ding, the system currently has 0.17% remaining energy. Without external energy replenishment, the system will automatically enter standby mode in 30 minutes. The system's own energy conversion rate for solar energy is 87.14%. Based on calculations, the system can maintain its current state by absorbing solar energy and biomass energy, and energy consumption will be equal to replenishment."

"Yang Xue! Well, can you help me get to the balcony to bask in the sun? Also, do we have anything to eat here? I'm a little hungry."

After hearing the reason, Liao Fan, who was staring at the ceiling and laughing like a fool, suddenly told herself that he wanted to bask in the sun. Yang Xue didn't know what to do for a moment.

Liao Fan's expression just now really scared her, and at one point she wanted to call a doctor.

Fortunately, Liao Fan is in normal condition at the moment.

After helping Liao Fan lie down on the lounge chair on the balcony, Yang Xue turned around, took out an apple from the fruit basket on the table in the room, washed it, and gave it to Liao Fan.

While basking in the sun and chewing an apple, Liao Fan calmed down and asked the system again, "Now, is it okay?"

"Ding, solar and biomass energy input detected. Energy consumption and absorption are currently balanced. We can maintain the current state for now. Does the host have any further questions?"

Being asked this question again, Liao Fan was a little confused for a moment. He didn't know where to start the topic that was originally interrupted. However, just when Liao Fan was about to continue asking about the information about the system, he suddenly realized that he seemed to have lost sight of the main point.

No matter where the system came from, it seemed to have nothing to do with him at the moment.

"Hey, System, do you know if there's something wrong with my genes? Why is this happening? I remember when I got you, didn't you say that no matter what happened to me in Tarkov, it wouldn't affect my real body?"

"Ding, host gene damage detected. System self-diagnosis indicates the system is missing too many core functions. Therefore, while the training process will not affect the host at a macro level, the genetic pressure cannot be removed."

"Okay, it's because of the incompleteness again, so do you have any ideas for solving this problem?"

"Ding, the host can use the medical function to recover."

"So what are you waiting for? Let's get started. If I don't ask you, you'll keep quiet! ...Hey, Xue'er, give me two more apples. Who gave you these? They're pretty sweet."

Liao Fan took the apple from Yang Xue and ate it while waiting for the system's response. If the system could heal his genetic damage, then all his previous worries would no longer be a problem. However, for some reason, Liao Fan always felt that something bad was going to happen.

"Ding, the system's medical module has been detected to be severely damaged. Currently, it can only repair damaged skin, scars, bones, and other injuries, but cannot repair the host's genes."

...Grass!
