Chapter 3159: Would Eventually Have a Full Falling-Out

Since there was another task-taker next to her, Ning Shu decided to seek advice from him.

Ning Shu had a feeling in her heart that, perhaps, she and 2333 would eventually have a full falling-out.

Wen Xing was momentarily stunned. “I don’t think they would. You are bound to your system, and your system to you. This bond ensures that both your system and you work together for mutual benefit; you represent the system’s interests, and the system represents yours.”

“Why do you ask?” Wen Xing asked in surprise.

Ning Shu pressed her lips together. “Maybe I’m overthinking it. Well, since we’re one entity, there’s nothing to worry about.”

Wen Xing said, “Your system is also a soul. It’s essential that the two of you have good communication.”

Suddenly, Ning Shu realized that she shouldn’t have asked such a question.

She was actually worried that 2333 might betray her; she was troubled by something that hadn’t even happened.

Ning Shu felt that her mentality wasn’t strong enough, which caused her to worry about things that hadn’t yet occurred.

She had to face the fact that she and 2333 were ultimately not people of the same path.

They were strangers from the start, and now they were bound together, but neither had promised loyalty to the other. Nothing required them to remain faithful to each other.

Although one day they might indeed have a falling-out, that would happen when they reached a crossroads, where their paths could no longer align, and they would go their separate ways.

But until that time, they still counted as one entity, so there was no need to worry about this issue.

Instead of worrying about these matters, it would be better for her to focus on becoming stronger. That way, when they did fall out, she would be prepared for the changes it brought and could protect herself.

She had to construct her own world, not only to avoid being eliminated but also to survive the inevitable end of her partnership with 2333.

Thinking this way made Ning Shu feel relieved. Her worries had been self-inflicted. She was only troubled because she wasn’t yet strong enough to handle the consequences of her system’s departure.

All her unease stemmed from a lack of strength.

This wouldn’t happen in the short term. If 2333 grew stronger, she, too, would have to become more powerful.

By the time 2333 was powerful enough to leave, she would also be strong, and 2333’s departure would be a trivial matter for her.

Ning Shu let out a long breath, released the tension from her heart, and kicked that weight off her chest.

In truth, this issue had been weighing on Ning Shu’s mind for some time. Now that she faced it, she felt boundless motivation.

Wen Xing noticed Ning Shu’s expression lighten. Just moments ago, she had been frowning, and now she seemed as light as a feather, ready to float into the sky.

How could her inner thoughts be so rich?

“The weather is so nice!” Ning Shu said as she shot at a monster that was lunging at her.

Wen Xing quietly looked up at the gloomy sky and found it impossible to say, “Yes, it is, without betraying his conscience.

His conscience would hurt.

“Let’s take a break,” Wen Xing said. He put down their medical kit, sat down, and drank some water.

Ning Shu also sat down. When she sat down, she smelled her own clothes. They were soaked in sweat and dirt. She felt like she was really living in a post-apocalyptic world.

They were far from her rented apartment. They had just been heading towards wherever there were monsters. Ning Shu felt that she wouldn’t even be able to find the way home.

Ning Shu grabbed a water bottle, drank some, and closed her eyes to rest.

Neither Ning Shu nor Wen Xing spoke. Talking was exhausting, and they didn’t have the energy for it.

They didn’t know how many shots they’d fired just on this day.

Wen Xing, who also had to track down the monsters, was especially exhausted.

Ning Shu felt that she really had to pick up more new skills.

When they set off again, Ning Shu carried her own medical kit. She followed Wen Xing.

Ning Shu wondered if the higher-ups had arrived.

At first, Ning Shu thought they had, given the massive influx of armed forces into the city.

But Ning Shu and Wen Xing had encountered some of these armed forces and found that the weapons they were using were from this era, not beyond the technology of this plane.
