Trillionaire's Slice of Life-Chapter 1239 - 771: Gathering Place of System Owners_2
Chapter 1239: Chapter 771: Gathering Place of System Owners_2
As the two tall bodyguards in front of him stepped aside, Chu Mo, who had been recognized, finally set down the iron sphere. Unlike Yu Wenjing’s gentle approach, Chu Mo, nearly exhausted, placed the iron sphere down with his face covered in disarray. At that moment, a dull sound emitted from it, and Chu Mo realized that even the floor outside the bar was made of special materials, otherwise it would not be able to withstand the weight of a sphere weighing thousands of pounds.
The two hulking men opposite did not show any disrespect for Chu Mo’s disheveled appearance. Both men, towering over 1.95 meters, bowed to Chu Mo. Clearly, both were aware of the true weight of the iron sphere. A few thousands of kilograms was not something just anyone could handle. The fact that Chu Mo could lift the sphere indicated he possessed the strength to turn them into pulp with a single punch... novelbuddy-cσ๓
At this moment, Chu Mo flexed his aching wrists and took a deep breath before striding forward, heading towards the corridor behind the two men.
"You should have exchanged for a hundredfold strength so that no one would bully you in the future."
Yu Wenjing, who had been waiting at the front, spoke up unusually.
Chu Mo, who was completely unfamiliar with the rules here, slightly frowned and asked in a heavy voice:
"What do you mean?"
As they reached a big door along a not-so-long corridor, Yu Wenjing, who had lightly halted, raised her eyebrows and said:
"Our systems, though they seem mysterious and powerful, also differ in strength from person to person. Some systems lean towards the arts, others towards combat, and still others possess almost heaven-defying capabilities. Accordingly, based on the differences in systems, various levels are also established.
Being able to lift that big iron sphere categorizes one at the lowest D level. Your performance just now was too strained, and you are likely to be categorized directly into the D level. This could mean people might bully you, so it’s better to appear more effortless, so others can’t fully grasp your real capabilities."
Yu Wenjing’s words ended with a hint of a smile; she ceased to say more and pushed open the door in front of her. Immediately, soft music filled their ears, and as Chu Mo looked ahead, a hall shining with vibrant colorful lights appeared before them.
The two stepped in, and the door behind them closed automatically. At a glance, the entire bar could be seen.
The bar wasn’t very large and one could see everything at a glance. There were about five or six seats at the bar counter, which displayed various precious and famous wines. The dance floor in the center was only about forty or fifty square meters, where several young and attractive men and women were dancing. The surroundings resembled the typical seating found in ordinary bars.
What made Chu Mo narrow his eyes was that, on the walls of the entire bar, there were also huge screens. These screens displayed various tasks of different levels.
Being here, Chu Mo even felt like he was back at the top task hall in the Longevity Club, but the only difference was that most of the tasks here were related to the systems. As he casually looked around, he noticed a task column for A-Level tasks that involved acquiring a flight fruit!
Chu Mo immediately checked his system’s marketplace, only to find that there was no such item as the flight fruit in it.
As for the other task columns, there were all sorts of strange and unusual items, some of which were also available in Chu Mo’s system marketplace, but many others were not to be found at all.
Just as Yu Wenjing had said, everyone’s system differed, and the items in the system’s marketplace varied accordingly. When some people needed some items they didn’t possess, they could publish what they wanted here, or exchange goods, or trade with system points.
Chu Mo and Yu Wenjing, both with solemn expressions, approached the bar counter. As he continued to look around, he noticed that there were probably twenty to thirty people in the entire bar.
That is to say, in this small bar, there were gathered twenty to thirty system owners!
"Xiao Jing, this friend you’ve brought seems quite unfamiliar. This gentleman must be here for the first time in our bar. As a new friend, tonight’s expenses are all on the house!"
Behind the bar, a middle-aged man with squinted eyes warmly greeted them with a smile. Clearly familiar with Yu Wenjing, he exchanged greetings before turning to prepare drinks for them.
Meanwhile, Yu Wenjing immediately leaned close to Chu Mo’s ear and quietly explained:
"This is the bar owner and also the creator here; his system is of S-tier. I don’t know the specifics, but he’s definitely not someone to mess with when there’s no need."
Chu Mo listened quietly, his gaze continuously scanning the surroundings.
Chu Mo was unaware of the specific systems ratings in this bar, but if he went by what Yu Wenjing had just said, anyone who could lift the thousand-pound iron ball at the bar’s entrance had at least the lowest D-tier system, allowing Chu Mo to make a simple approximation.
The power of a D-tier system is roughly between forty to fifty times that of an ordinary person.
As for S-tier, it probably requires the strength of the veterans from Tianya or even the Xue family’s ancestors.
Chu Mo felt that, if he were to use the Power of Laws and activate his domain, he should be rated at least A-tier. Of course, there are some even more expensive system skills, costing upwards of ten thousand, even tens of thousands of Tycoon points, powerful in effect but equally expensive, not something Chu Mo could easily afford.
Just then, the figure that had been dozing off at the bar suddenly raised their head, and the long-haired woman reeking of alcohol sleepily said to Chu Mo:
"Hey... you must be new here. There’s a rule in our bar, all newcomers have to show everyone their abilities, let big sister see what you can do."
The long-haired woman in front of him was obviously drunk, as indicated by the strong smell of alcohol. However, as her words fell, at least a dozen pairs of eyes in the bar instantly fixed on Chu Mo.
Clearly, Chu Mo was curious about the bar, and likewise, the patrons of the bar were curious about Chu Mo, a newcomer.
Chu Mo had acquired The Tycoon System two and a half years ago, nearing three years, and most of that time, his system had been in hibernation, only recently waking up due to threats to his safety.
Thus, although Chu Mo had possessed the system for quite some time, he didn’t really know much about it.
Naturally, Chu Mo had even initially thought he was the only one in the world with a system. It was only after recently discovering the system’s Heart Jade that he slowly realized that this world is vast, and he isn’t the only one with a system.
His is The Tycoon System; he has no idea about the systems of others, not even Yu Wenjing’s who is right by his side.
However, Chu Mo vaguely felt that it’s best to keep his system abilities concealed, especially in a bar with so many other systems users.
Exposing his system in front of so many could invite immense trouble in the future.
But if there really is such a rule in the bar, what should he do?
He looked at Yu Wenjing next to him. She didn’t say anything but just shook her head slightly at him.
With that answer, Chu Mo felt somewhat reassured. It was clear that the woman beside him was just drunkenly making things up; there was no such rule in the bar for newcomers to perform.
Chu Mo didn’t want to provoke the woman. He ignored her, but the drunk-faced woman clearly wasn’t willing to let it go so easily.
Seeing that Chu Mo didn’t respond, she immediately stood up, grabbed his shoulder, and slurred:
"Kid, can’t you hear me or what, just die early..."
As her words fell, her fingers gripping Chu Mo’s shoulder suddenly exerted force, and in an instant, an overwhelmingly strong force transmitted through.
