Chapter 7: test


Hua Yueling waited for the young woman's answer, he clenched his fists anxiously, sweat dripping from his head and body.
"The host wants your parents to be safe, and you must show your ability. The system will temporarily provide the host with the ‘digging’ skill. The host needs to use this skill to find the parents and complete this task. The host’s parents will naturally be safe."
"Digging skills, can you dig these rocks with it?"
"That's right. In addition, the time limit for the task is half an hour. The host, please complete the task within the time limit."
The young woman stopped talking, and Hua Yueling didn't have the time to ask more questions.
"Sister Yun, I have something to do. You wait for me here first, and I will be back soon."
He moved out of the place and gently placed his sister where he was lying.
"Xiao Ling, what are you going to do?"
"Time is pressing, so I don’t have to explain too much. After we go out, I will tell sister Yun everything after all, okay?" Hua Yueling didn’t want to spend too much time at this time. Limiting him, he has to do more quickly.
"Don't force yourself." Although she didn't know what happened, Hua Yun still didn't ask much. She believed her brother, that was enough.
"Absolutely not."
Hua Yueling first digs up the rock in the direction where the phone's ringing sounded before, and then tried again after obtaining the digging skills. The speed was obviously much faster. Soon he dug a large area, the space opened up a lot, and he also found his sister's mobile phone in the gap behind the stone.
"Sister Yun, I found your phone."
The light of the mobile phone screen illuminates the space they are in, the ground is full of rubble, the space is covered with meteorites and the broken stones formed by the room being smashed are piled up.
The light shone on her sister, and Hua Yueling's sight shifted away. Huayun lay on the floor, her hands covering her abdomen, her eyes closed tightly, as if she was asleep, she didn't respond. Bright red blood spread from the gaps between her fingers, dyeing her clothes, her hands, the bedding and the ground.
The injury on her abdomen was terrifying, and she was smashed by rocks.
"Sister Yun!" Hua Yueling knelt down beside her sister, trembling and stretched out her hand, trying to touch her sister's hand covering her abdomen, but she didn't dare to touch her, so as not to cause more harm to her injuries." Sister Yun, you, your injury—"
Covering his face, he couldn't bear to see where his sister was injured. Pain tormented his heart, his sister was so badly hurt, her face was so pale, and seeing her less and less energetic, she didn't even want to open her eyes.
"My sister is okay, I can bear it. This small injury is nothing — Xiao Ling, do what you want to do quickly. My sister will endure until the rescue comes. Don't let your sister down-bear with it. , Don't cry." Hua Yun was stumbling and talking. She opened her eyes under the glare of the phone screen and tried to sit up.
"Don't move too much, take a good rest first, sister Yun. You are right, we can definitely go out."
Holding back the urge to cry, tears swirled around the corner of her eyes, Hua Yueling clenched her fists and leaned to her sister's ear, with a strong and powerful tone.
That's right, he can't waste time anymore, he must first find his parents.
"The host doesn't need to be sad, her injury is a bit more serious, but the system is completely treatable."
"Really, I can ask you—"
"The host will listen to me first." The young woman told Huayueling to close her mouth obediently. "The system can temporarily alleviate her injury. To heal her completely, the host must first complete the task and obtain system recognition."
"I know." Nodded, Hua Yueling stopped asking, no matter what he asked, he could only trust the other party, "I will do it."
"Wait, sister Yun, you will get better soon."
"Well, yeah." The looming light enveloped Huayun's whole body, her eyes were a bit unable to open, but she still persisted.
"Sleep, sister Yun, your injury should heal when you wake up."
"Really?" Huayun, who is extremely mentally troubled, is still working hard. The more she should be with her younger brother at this difficult time, this is her idea. But she couldn't resist the sudden drowsiness and fell asleep.
"Her injuries have simply been dealt with, and then it's up to the host."
"I won't let you down!" With clenched fists, Hua Yueling waved his arms vigorously. He didn't act in a hurry, but first took advantage of the mobile phone's flashlight function to observe the surrounding situation.
"Mum and Dad, they should be in the north—" Glancing at the place where they lay on the floor, the left side of the floor faces the north. "This is the way."
After confirming the direction, Hua Yueling acted immediately. He rushed to the waste rock pile at the fastest speed, digging back and forth with his left and right hands.
"It's so hard!" He was digging very smoothly, and he encountered a hard stubble on his hand, and he failed to dig a place for several consecutive times. , Try another place first."
Half an hour is neither long nor short. I glanced at the time displayed on the phone, and it was about three minutes.
"No, here are these hard stones." Try to develop the road on both sides, but as long as you move forward, you will encounter the same difficult-to-dig stones. "Can I dig such stones with my current digging skills? "
Seeing that five minutes passed by, Hua Yueling didn't want to waste any more time, so he asked the young woman directly.
"The test of the host in times of difficulty, whether the host can think about it."
As a result, the other party didn't tell him what he meant, couldn't get advice, and Hua Yueling had no better way. It's very likely that there will be not enough time if he keeps on going. He doesn't have many choices.
"No matter what, I don't believe that I can't dig any further!"
With fingers heavily inserted on his hand, he made up his mind to break through the barrier in front of him.
"call--"
After taking a breath, he plunged into the excavation again. There is a firmness in his pupils, he does not want to lose here!
The digging continued until he had forgotten the passage of time, relying on continuous and rapid digging to overcome difficulties. After this period of digging, ten minutes had passed.
"A quarter of an hour has passed, and it has to be faster."
Hua Yueling encouraged herself in her heart while digging. There is no time for him to rest. There is still some distance from his parents' bedroom. No matter what, he has to reach his parents' bedroom before he can breathe temporarily.
His unremitting efforts did not disappoint him, and he was rewarded.
"Dad, mom."
"Host, it's useless. They are in a coma at this time. They won't wake up until they return to the ground. I advise you not to waste your energy."
"Why? You did it?"
"Yes."
"You—" Hua Yueling wants to be angry, but think about it, there is really no reason to be angry. Without the help of young women and the system, I still don't know what kind of state I will be in. "Okay, test me. I'm done for you!"
He said in a deep voice.
