Rebirth 08: Equipment God

Chapter 80 System's Deep Gameplay

Originally, Yu Xiaoli was just hinting at it, but unexpectedly, a big golden egg was revealed!

The great news made her feel a little lighter.

Although she can accept all the "bad" things about Zhai Da, even if Zhai Da said, "Don't bully the poor young, don't bully the poor middle-aged, don't bully the poor old, and death is the greatest thing."
But that doesn’t mean she isn’t pleased with all the “good” things about Zhai Da.

As we chatted, tears started to form in the corners of her eyes.

Afterwards, Zhai Da wanted to wash the dishes according to the old rules, but Yu Xiaoli wanted to stop him, saying that he should spend more time studying.

However, Zhai Da told Yu Xiaoli to keep a normal mind and live her life as she should. "Cook without washing dishes, wash dishes without cooking" is the family rule of this family. Yu Xiaoli and Lu Wei have already cooked, so just leave the dishes to him.

He is not the kind of nerd who has nothing in his head just for the sake of studying.

Pushing his mother out of the kitchen, Zhai Da washed the dishes step by step. After finishing, he did not leave immediately, but took out the [Tough Man Razor] and the whetstone in the corner of the cupboard.

He doesn't know how to sharpen a knife, but he can search on Baidu on his mobile phone.

He had no complicated utensils, just a whetstone and other common kitchen items.

Just keep it simple and do it casually. He is not trying to sharpen a sword into a peerless one anyway.

Or in other words, a tool that is used to shave and reduce pain would be dangerous if it was too sharp.

Yes, this is also an attempt.

He had never made such a systematic change in the "material form" of [equipment].

The stains on the handle have been cleaned, and the rust on the blade has not visually spread to the blade, but it is better to grind them both to be on the safe side.

White vinegar, baking soda, and rapeseed oil are all useful ingredients and are available in the kitchen. If you feel that the friction is not enough, add some salt or sugar.

After Zhai Da had been grinding for ten minutes, it seemed that the amount of material loss of this [equipment] exceeded a certain threshold, and Zhai Da actually received a system prompt.

"It has been detected that the [Hard Man Shaver] is being modified. The equipment effect has been disabled (temporarily)."

Zhai Da was stunned and stopped.

"It has been detected that the transformation of [Hard Man Shaver] has been completed and is being re-evaluated"

"Completeness judgment. Functional judgment. Conceptual judgment."

"Judgment passed, [Tough Shaver] status remains unchanged."

Zhai Da pondered for a moment.
Therefore, equipment can be modified!

What happens if it fails? Totally broken?
Or is there another possibility?
Zhai Da continued to polish. After a few minutes, it seemed to have exceeded a certain threshold. He received another system prompt: Being modified, the effect is turned off.
Once it stops, it is judged as a success.

Obviously, just grinding to remove rust will not determine any other results.

The integrity, functionality and conceptuality of [Tough Man Shaver] have not changed.

Zhai Da thought for a moment, threw the [Tough Man Shaver] into the mineral water bottle, and then poured in "rapeseed oil" according to the instruction.

I'll take it out tomorrow and try it out again. Even if this [Tough Man Razor] has been given a new life, I'll try it myself first. If it's really of no use, I can lend it to Fan Junwei temporarily.

He has exhausted all the methods in the system space, and [Tough Man Razor] cannot be combined with anything in his hand for the time being, and the effect is also very painful.

It was just a small job done on a whim. If it weren't for Fan Junwei, he probably wouldn't have really used this thing. He wouldn't even bother to polish it and would have thrown it aside, waiting to be synthesized someday.

But this gave Zhai Da a completely new understanding of the system.

[Suits] and [Transformations] are undoubtedly deeper ways to play the system.

If razors can be transformed, what about bicycles? What about playing cards?

But he had neither the tools nor the skills. He couldn't sharpen a blade out of a bicycle.
Zhai Da thought of his grandfather's metalworking notes, which were currently in the bookcase and temporarily left idle because he couldn't understand them.

That could be an important key.

The evening that followed was peaceful and productive, filled with study.

Zhai Da and Lu Wei took turns using the [Literary Girl's Pen], and then guided each other and made progress together.

Lu Wei is responsible for mathematics and physics, and Zhai Da is responsible for Chinese and English.

The phrase "let's work together" at the dinner table was by no means Lu Wei's politeness; the two of them were a really good match.

By the way, Zhai Da also tried the [Eternal Light Bulb] he obtained today. He stood on a stool, unscrewed the original light bulb on the roof and replaced it with the new one. The connector on the roof was a bit old and was just right for this piece of equipment.

Then I found that it can really light up, but it is also really dim.

To what extent? He felt that lighting a lighter was better than this light bulb.

In the end, Zhai Da had to accept it. Although the effect of preventing distraction and carelessness was difficult to detect, and could not be brought into the college entrance examination room, it could at least increase the efficiency of his and Lu Wei's study in their own room.

For proper lighting, they still had to rely on table lamps. At one o'clock in the evening, they both took a shower. When Zhai Da came out of the bathroom, it was already quiet outside.

He stretched out on the bed with his whole body relaxed. His hips were a little painful. Zhai Da kept kicking his legs in the dark, trying to loosen up some nerve.

"Zhai Da."

Lu Wei's voice echoed through the wall.

"Ok?"

“Let’s go to the same university.”

In the small room next door, Lu Wei faced the wall, waiting for a response.

Her voice was always emotionless, so much so that even Zhai Da, who had a mature soul, could not clearly discern the real reason behind her words.

Is it because of uneasiness or encouragement?

Is it because of fear or politeness?

Or.
Is it because of friendship or because of love.

Zhai Da also felt that it would be great if he and Lu Wei were in the same university.

It's as if I don't want to.
Zhai Da could think this way, but he couldn't express it.

"Do you know how much the bonus from Peking University and Tsinghua University can change your life? Your lower limit will be higher than the upper limit of many people."

"Are National Tsinghua University and Peking University really that important?"

".certainly."

“You haven’t been there.”

Zhai Da:.
There was only another long silence.

In the small room, Lu Wei stretched out her slender pale hand and touched the texture on the wall: "Same university."

Zhai Da thought it was tiring to chat with the repeater, so he turned over and said, "It's too early to talk about this now. We need to know the scores and fill in the report card. Let's put on some music and go to sleep. What do you want to listen to?"

"Same university."

"If you don't say anything, I'll play "Tension"

Lu Wei:.
"Then it's called 'Contentment'."

There were not many options to choose from, and Zhai Da's copycat machine only had a few dozen songs that he had copied into it before.

As a habit before going to bed, they have listened to the song over and over again countless times. Occasionally, when they come across a good song, Lu Wei will ask Zhai Da the name of the song.

After a while, soft singing came through the wall.

Gradually there was no movement on either side.

Only the screen of the copycat phone was still lit, playing the lyrics.

“How to have a rainbow.”

“How to embrace the summer wind”

“The stars in the sky smile at the people on earth ~ they never understand and never feel it is enough.”

"Yes. Same university."

The girl's whisper to the wall became the final ripple of the night.

It appeared in the heart of Zhai Da, who was actually not asleep and had his eyes open.

Work hard, young man!

Don't make others wait for you.

Instead, rush up and hug.
