Chapter 20 Initial Tasks

Jiang Chen was very excited at this moment.

These days he is still worried about how to spread news on the Internet. Unexpectedly, God sent someone to him.

He suppressed his excitement and did not immediately come forward to contact Huo Zhun. Instead, he turned on his phone and took a good look at the news about Huo Zhun.

A young and famous computer genius suddenly spread a computer virus called "Alpha" in foreign countries, causing nearly one-third of the computers in the country to become paralyzed in just one week, and was wanted by the government.

This guy is really making trouble. Are geniuses so crazy and so desperate?

Jiang Chen looked at the news on his phone and shook his head. But he looked at Huo Zhun's remaining life span on the system, and seemed to have thought of something.

At this time, Jiang Chen suddenly noticed that the interface of the system in front of him was flickering.

“Huh?”

"Start scanning for host usage."

“Time transactions: 4”

"Organization Construction: Eternal Life Association"

"Initial task, start generating"

A series of prompt sounds suddenly sounded in his ears, and just as Jiang Chen was puzzled, some changes occurred in the interface in front of him.

"Time Management System"

"System Level: Primary"

"Function List"

"Task Situation"

"This is?"

Jiang Chen was surprised by the sudden change in the system. He didn't know whether it was good or bad, so he quickly checked it.

The original four options are still in the function list, but the task situation column is still not available for the time being.

He noticed again that there was a line of data under the interface at this time. When he looked closely, it was Jiang Chen's own information.

Just as Jiang Chen was surprised and inconsistent, the voice sounded in his ears again.

"The initial task has been released."

As soon as the words were finished, a window emerged.

"Initial Task"

Jiang Chen hesitated for a moment and clicked in.

Initial mission: absorb Huo Zhun to join the Immortal Association

Mission Level: D

Mission time limit: twenty-four hours

Complete Reward: Random

Special Note: If the host task fails, the remaining five years of the host will be deducted.

Damn! If the task fails, the remaining life will be deducted!

After reading the task introduction, especially the final special explanation, Jiang Chen was really shocked.

Jiang Chen was originally disdainful of the system tasks, but he didn't expect that if he didn't complete the task, he would be such a scam punishment. He couldn't help but be speechless for a while.

Jiang Chen, who has tried the magical functions given by the system, has no doubt about the authenticity of these regulations of the system. Even such as controlling time as being too fantastic, has become real. What else can't be done?

But it's too cruel to deduct five years at once.

But at the same time, the random reward also made Jiang Chen feel excited.

The task level is only D level, and it seems that this task is not difficult. Jiang Chen originally planned to absorb Huo Zhun, so Jiang Chen will definitely complete this task.

He is an ordinary person, but he already thinks that the current function of the system is very awesome. What will the reward be? Is it a new function?

It took Jiang Chen a while to come back to his senses from the impact of the new content of the system. Since the task was clear, Jiang Chen did not hesitate anymore and began to imagine how to contact Huo Zhun.

Only then did he suddenly realize that Huo Zhun had walked to the door of the fast food restaurant and was about to leave.

Fortunately, I realized that if I was slower, I would lose Huo Zhun, 24 hours a day

I was really not sure to complete the task within time.

Jiang Chen couldn't help but feel scared, so he quickly got up and prepared to follow him.

Along the way, Jiang Chen was thinking about how to contact Huo Zhun. The system only gave him twenty-four hours, and he had to think of a complete plan.

Just as Jiang Chen's brain was running rapidly, he noticed that Huo Zhun had stopped ahead. Jiang Chen's heart tightened. He had just planned to go, was he exposed?

But soon Jiang Chen found that the problem was not on him. He noticed that two men wearing sunglasses and serious expressions were walking towards Huo Zhun in front of him.

That capable pace made Jiang Chen realize the specialness of the two. Could it be, agent?

Jiang Chen quickly guessed the identities of the two. It was really not easy. He could still find them after they both escaped here.

Huo Zhun obviously noticed the two people in front of him. He paused slightly, immediately turned around and walked quickly towards the crowd.

Seeing Huo Zhun being prepared to escape, the two agents immediately accelerated their pace and rushed towards Huo Zhun.

"Agent... this is really helpful to me." An undetectable smile appeared on the corner of Jiang Chen's mouth and he said to himself.

He did not choose to do more for the time being, but continued to follow Huo Zhun and the agents.

At this time, Jiang Chen, who followed behind him and watched Huo Zhun's pace accelerate again, noticed that Huo Zhun's left leg seemed to be a little inflexible.

For this reason, even by relying on the abortion, Huo Zhun could not distance himself from the two agents.

The two agents seemed to have noticed Huo Zhun's inconvenience and did not forcefully chase Huo Zhun, but followed behind slowly, as if they were forcing Huo Zhun to submit.

The two sides walked for a long time in a stalemate. Huo Zhun obviously felt a little exhausted and slowed down.

Seeing this, the two agents did not continue to tease Huo Zhun, but walked forward quickly and prepared to catch him directly.

Huo Zhun suddenly turned around and looked at the two agents. The agent obviously did not expect Huo Zhun to do this, and he paused forward. Seeing this, Huo Zhun immediately turned around and started running.

"The realm of time is opened and accelerated by a hundred times!"

Jiang Chen felt that the time was almost done, so he opened his territory and came to Huo Zhun.

Huo Zhun, who was about to start running, instantly noticed the strangeness around him. The noisy crowd became quiet, and everything seemed to be still. The two agents had just stepped out and hung in the air.

"What's going on?" Huo Zhun obviously couldn't understand how all this happened.

"Hello, Mr. Huo Zhun."

Jiang Chen greeted Huo Zhun politely and realized that there was someone who was not still around him.

Seeing this man's calm face, Huo Zhun understood that the scene in front of him was obviously the man's masterpiece.

"Who are you?"

"What's going on?"

Huo Zhun, who was originally a wanted criminal, seemed a little surprised and suspicious. This situation was too impactful for him.

He looked at the strange man in front of him with a look of alertness.

Jiang Chen was already expected of Huo Zhun's appearance. He comforted him and said:

"Mr. Huo Zhun doesn't have to worry. I have no malice, otherwise I wouldn't have chosen to take action at this time and save Mr. Huo Zhun."

"This place is not suitable for us to talk to. If Mr. Huo Zhun doesn't mind, we can change the place and have a good talk."

"Do I have any other choice?" Huo Zhun had recovered his calmness at this moment. He replied coldly, ready to act according to the opportunity.

"Being captured back to China is naturally also a choice." Jiang Chen smiled faintly, and he naturally understood the meaning of Huo Zhun's words.

After saying that, he took Huo Zhun away.

After the two left, everything around them returned to normal. When the two agents saw Huo Zhun disappearing in front of them in an instant, they immediately looked around.

After confirming that Huo Zhun had lost, the two of them cursed and left the scene.

...

Following Jiang Chen, Huo Zhun came to a teahouse. There were not many people at the teahouse at this time. They chose a secluded position to sit down, pulled the curtain, and separated them from the surroundings.

Staring at the mysterious man with a calm expression in front of him, Huo Zhun finally couldn't help asking:

"Who are you?"

"Mr. Huo Zhun, don't be afraid. I have no malice. On the contrary, am I here to help you?"

"Help me? Who are you?" Huo Zhun asked.

"I am a time businessman." Jiang Chen replied.

"Time Merchant?"

Even though Huo Zhun was very calm, Jiang Chen's answer still stunned him.

"Yes, time merchant. And, I can provide you with what you need most."

Speaking of this, Jiang Chen paused for a moment and pretended to be mysterious:

"Mr. Huo Zhun should have... not much time, right?"

Jiang Chen's words were undoubtedly a heavy hammer to Huo Zhun, and the calmness on his face was finally replaced by a shocked look.

Jiang Chen is right, Huo Zhun has indeed not had much time left.

A year ago, Huo Zhun suddenly felt paralysis sometimes when his left leg went to the hospital for examination. The doctor told him with a heavy face that he unfortunately suffered from ALS. People suffering from this disease will gradually stiffen and atrophy and die in pain.

Moreover, current medicine cannot effectively cure this disease, while Huo Zhun has only about six years left.

This result made Huo Zhun unacceptable, and his life experience was not very smooth.

He immigrated with his parents as soon as he was born. He died of a car accident at the age of six, leaving him alone to grow up outside. The orphan's identity has caused his growth experience to suffer many unreasonable malice.

Fortunately, during high school, his computer talent was revealed. After leaving school, he was about to make a difference, but suddenly got the bad news from the doctor.

He couldn't understand why this world was so unfair to him. In extreme despair, his psychology began to distort, so he wrote that the "Alpha" virus wanted to revenge on this world.

He was very satisfied with the power of "Alpha", but the excessively serious situation made him soon discovered and wanted. He was unwilling to be caught and chose to escape to Jiangzhou.

However, he never mentioned the terminal illness to anyone, how could this person know?

Huo Zhun stood up suddenly, his face was gloomy, staring at Jiang Chen's eyes and asked in a cold voice:

"How long have you investigated me?"

Seeing Huo Zhun's reaction, Jiang Chen knew that he had guessed correctly. Huo Zhun's remaining life span was so small, it seemed that he was suffering from a terminal illness!

"Mr. Huo, don't be excited. I didn't investigate you, but as a businessman who has been walking on earth for many years, I know very well what others need."

Jiang Chen still smiled and replied calmly.

"Impossible. I have known my illness for a long time. There is nothing I can do with today's medicine."

Huo Zhun's Yinhan's face showed that he obviously did not believe Jiang Chen's words.

He had already checked a lot of information about his illness, and there was no way to deal with this disease in the real world. Otherwise, he would not have been so desperate that he would have acted to retaliate against society.

"Yes, ordinary doctors really have no choice, and I am not a doctor, but a businessman."
