The Most Random System

"Get me one more, I'm bringing one for Wanqiu too," Ding Sihan instructed Lin Li.

"Almost forgot about my Little Qiuqiu, OK, don't worry, I promise it'll be the most solid, most shot, least tree-like," Lin Li immediately assured after hearing that, giving high praise to Ding Sihan's proactive attitude.

Well-taught kid.

"Alright!"

Chen Yu Ying glanced humorously at Ding Sihan upon hearing that.

Playing with Lin Li is really dangerous, seems like her good friend is straying further down the non-anthropomorphic path.

After collecting the wild persimmons, Lin Li used the plastic bag he brought for emergencies, which came in handy.

He put them in the plastic bag and placed it in his backpack where it wouldn't get squashed.

"Lin Li, won't that be too much stuff? How about I help you carry some?"

Noticing Lin Li made an almost 'eh' sound of relief when he stood up, Chen Yu Ying reached to support his bag.

"Class president, I'm not someone who puts up a front of being strong. If I'm really tired, I'll just ride on Bai Bufan, don't worry," Lin Li waved his hand dismissively.

They had been walking for two hours now, and since it was all uphill, they were bound to feel slightly tired. But they walked at a slow pace, and taking photos and picking persimmons served as breaks, so Lin Li wasn't overexerting himself at all.

"...A kind person is bullied, and a good horse is ridden to level 7." However, Bai Bufan nodded toward Chen Yu Ying, "What Lin Li said is true, he would indeed willingly climb onto me."

Chen Yu Ying: "..."

You two...

"Class president, besides, if I were really tired, you shouldn't help me carry things, you should help me wipe my sweat," Lin Li suggested thoughtfully. "I think that's far more useful than helping me carry stuff."

"Lin Li is right about that. If Ying Bao wipes his sweat, Lin Li might just take off," Ding Sihan remarked teasingly.

Chen Yu Ying, not having mastered the art of receiving such jests with ease, pursed her lips slightly and glared at Ding Sihan, who was adding fuel to the fire.

Why did her reward end up with Ding Sihan?

Lin Li felt indignant.

But Chen Yu Ying's blushing face was truly the most enticing persimmon, wasn't it?

The texture seemed crisp, sweet, and a bit colorful.

"You don't even have any sweat, what am I supposed to wipe? Besides, your hands are free; you can wipe it yourself," after glaring at Ding Sihan, Chen Yu Ying said to Lin Li.

"Bufan, in case of emergency, I'll cut off my arms myself, and you'll make sure I break a sweat!" Lin Li promptly issued an order with a serious tone.

"Understood! Lin Li, give me your phone, I'll show them your TikTok search and browser history!" Bai Bufan came up with a plan right away.

Lin Li: "..."

God damn.

He was indeed slightly sweating profusely now.

"Hey? I heard it's really scandalous, let me see," Ding Sihan's voice suddenly rose by eight degrees.

Chen Yu Ying was equally interested in such matters; she might even be more intrigued than Ding Sihan, her eyes dazzling.

"I browse in incognito mode," Lin Li replied, then elbowed Bai Bufan: "Not this way."

"Got it, Plan B initiated, ah—" Bai Bufan slightly tilted his head back, making a phlegmy noise in his throat, with his gaze seemingly targeting Lin Li's forehead.

"?"

"I asked for sweat, who the hell told you to spit!" Lin Li responded with a Leo Flying Kick.

Bai Bufan was kicked onto the ground, uttering a classic Northerner's sound of impact, 'iwc.'

Lin Li decided to ride on Bai Bufan ahead of time.

"Let's go, we're almost at the summit." While the two were horsing around, Chen Yu Ying and Ding Sihan, who had walked ahead, turned back to call out.

Even turning into a dual-sculpted Yang Guo wouldn't get Chen Yu Ying to help wipe sweat for him, Lin Li had no choice but to get up and wave: "Coming."

"Give me a hand." Bai Bufan extended his hand from behind.

Lin Li returned and kicked him again.

...

[Task 2 Completed]

[You have been rewarded: Physical Improvement: Spiritual Qi absorption speed increased by 100%; Ling Beast affability increased by 50%; system currency *50.]

The task was completed more easily than Lin Li had expected.

He had thought the system would be pedantic and require him to reach the absolute summit of Cloud Peak Mountain, but as they continued upward, the task showed as completed.

However, upon seeing the nearby cables, Lin Li roughly understood that the task probably just required him to surpass the height that the cable car could reach.

The physical improvements didn't bring about too much tangible sensation. Would small animals like him more now?

There weren't any animals around, so Lin Li wasn't in a hurry to verify.

"The teacher said they still have about twenty minutes before finishing the tour, so we should go to the base to wait for everyone. He's already informed the base owner, and they'll let us in," Chen Yu Ying called back.

It was only just eleven o'clock now. They had climbed for less than three hours, and this was considering the four of them weren't focusing solely on climbing, so the main group hadn't finished their original plan yet.

"Alright, let's head over." Without the task, Lin Li was full of leisure.

So, under Chen Yu Ying's guidance, the four of them successfully entered the outdoor base.

The base actually had many projects, not just barbecues. There were kites, inflatable balls, frisbees... There was even real-person CS, but the only activity included in the autumn trip fee was the barbecue; the other activities required extra payment to participate.

With less than twenty minutes to spare, the four of them just looked over the project introductions without any interest in purchasing the services.

Upon reaching the artificial turf, still green and soft in September, they selected a spot under a tree with shade and sat down.
