Since the system said so, Zhang Pingfan had no choice. It seemed that other than being an NPC, he couldn't do anything else.
"System big sister, since I can't transfer to the hidden profession of Xuan Tian Yao Zun, can you let me become an ordinary alchemist? I've planted so many medicinal herbs, I can't just let them go to waste, right?"
【Ding! Let me see. Based on your recent performance and task completion, it's not impossible to let you become an alchemist. Are you sure you want to learn alchemy skills?】
"Of course!"
It seemed he just couldn't compete with players for hidden professions, but it didn't mean he couldn't learn other skills.
Fortunately, he was smart enough to ask this question, otherwise he would have really missed out.
【Ding! System prompt: Do you want to learn alchemy skills!】
"Yes!"
【Ding! System prompt: Congratulations on successfully learning alchemy skills. Your current alchemy skill is novice!】
【Ding! System prompt: The system has issued a new task to you. You must upgrade your alchemy skill to intermediate within three days! If the task fails, your alchemy skill will be canceled. If the task is successful, there will be no reward!】
Tch, becoming more stingy.
Last time she gave me a pair of shoes, this time she should at least give me a set of clothes. She's giving nothing, how stingy.
"Boom!"
Thunder roared above Zhang Pingfan's head.
Frightened, Zhang Pingfan turned and ran, hiding in his room.
"Damn it, I was just complaining, is it necessary to strike me with lightning?"
【Ding! Big sister is in a bad mood today. It's best not to provoke her!】
"Understood, I understand. I'll shut up and log off to sleep!" 138 Reading Network
Zhang Pingfan's figure slowly disappeared.
In reality, Zhang Pingfan took off his helmet and looked at the time. It was already past midnight.
He didn't expect it to be so late without realizing it.
"Rumble!"
His stomach protested.
Zhang Pingfan walked out of his room with a helpless expression.
Looking at the quiet living room, Zhang Pingfan tiptoed to the refrigerator.
Fortunately, he had bought a few eggs before. He would boil some eggs.
As soon as he opened the refrigerator, he couldn't find his eggs.
"Strange, I clearly bought eggs, why are they gone? Did I remember incorrectly?"
While scratching his head, Zhang Pingfan saw the trash can. Some eggshells were scattered in it.
Zhang Pingfan knew with his backside that Li Yutong probably ate them.
"Forget it, I still have instant noodles, I'll eat a bowl of instant noodles!"
Zhang Pingfan didn't have much of a reaction to Li Yutong eating his eggs. At worst, he would make her pay him double tomorrow, hehe!
After eating instant noodles, Zhang Pingfan returned to his room and soon fell into a deep sleep.
As before, when Zhang Pingfan slept, streaks of lightning appeared on the surface of his body.
If anyone else saw it, they would be terrified and think Zhang Pingfan had been electrocuted.
The next day!
Zhang Pingfan lazily got up. Although he slept late last night, he still felt energetic when he woke up today, with no signs of fatigue.
"Strange, lately, after waking up every day, my body is full of energy. Is this what a day full of vitality feels like???"
Zhang Pingfan didn't think much of it and looked at the helmet lying beside him with adoration.
"My good baby, I'll pamper you after breakfast!"
Zhang Pingfan opened his door and saw Li Yutong jogging on the balcony at a glance.
Li Yutong also saw Zhang Pingfan.
At this moment, Li Yutong was wearing a tracksuit, and her perfect figure was fully visible to Zhang Pingfan.
Zhang Pingfan thought to himself: I always wondered how this girl, who plays games all day, could still be a professional player and not gain weight. So she exercises regularly.
Li Yutong took a deep breath and stepped off the treadmill.
"Good morning!"
Zhang Pingfan nodded.
"Mmm, good morning. Did you eat the eggs in my refrigerator?"
Li Yutong's face turned slightly red.
She logged off around eleven o'clock last night and was about to eat something when she found that her stored rations were gone.
It was so late, and as a girl, she didn't dare to go downstairs, so she ate the eggs in the refrigerator.
"Yes, don't worry, I'll buy you some today!"
Zhang Pingfan said, "Mmm, when you pick eggs, don't pick ones that are too big or too small, and don't pick ones that are too white in color."
Li Yutong was stunned for a moment. She didn't expect him to even teach her how to pick eggs. She thought Zhang Pingfan would just let it go.
This guy is really strange. Does he dislike women?
Nonsense, I, Zhang Pingfan, am a proper man. How could I dislike women? I just don't like you, a woman.
"Oh, I'll go down and buy them after I finish exercising!"
Zhang Pingfan nodded and then started preparing his breakfast.
There wasn't much communication between them.
After Zhang Pingfan finished breakfast, he returned to his room.
Li Yutong became even more curious. This guy hides in his room and plays games every day. What's going on now?
In the past, men would always come up to her, but she never expected that one day a man would be uninterested in her and too lazy to talk to her.
She was nice to him until yesterday. After dinner, her attitude changed. She must have offended him.
"I wonder if this newbie has left the新手村 (novice village)? What's his name in the game? What's his level? Forget it, I'll ask him during lunch. Also, Wang Yi's equipment is really troublesome!"
Li Yutong slumped onto the table like a deflated ball.
Zhang Pingfan put on his helmet and returned to the mythological game world.
Looking at the hidden profession in his backpack, Zhang Pingfan seemed to have no intention of selling it yet.
Even though he couldn't use it, it didn't mean his people couldn't. Besides, his task was to establish his own force.
If he were a player, he would directly establish a guild or a sect.
Then, he would recruit experts with this hidden profession as a reward, and everything would fall into place.
But he wasn't a player. He couldn't possibly create a guild.
"No, only players can create guilds, but sects are different. NPCs own sects. Why don't I create a sect myself?"
But Zhang Pingfan quickly shook his head. Creating a sect couldn't control players at all. After all, all players had to join a sect to learn skills beyond level 10.
In that case, a sect couldn't restrict players from leaving! Only a guild could.
【Ding! Are you a pig? Are you the same as other NPCs? How do you know your sect won't work if you don't try it? You're stupid to death. I have to remind you. When will you ever improve?】
Zhang Pingfan's face instantly darkened. He was chided by the system as soon as he logged into the game.
"Go to hell, you always say I can't do this and can't do that. How am I supposed to know what I can do? Can I do you?"
