Traveling through Tomorrow's Ark: Starting with a Yama Sword

"Okay, nice to meet you, Millennium...Operator Millennium." Sangsen bowed to Shen Qi, and Shen Qi quickly returned the greeting.

[Very polite, merit +200. ]

Ines' voice suddenly appeared in Shen Qi's mind. Shen Qi was stunned when he heard it: "No way, this can also add merit."

[You are still in the novice stage, the system should be nice to you. ]

Shen Qi didn't say anything. He put away his operator ID and planned to go to his dormitory to take a look.

"Then I'll trouble Miss Ines to take Operator Millennium to the dormitory." Sangshen added. Ines then led Shen Qi out of the HR office.

"I haven't told you yet." After closing the door, Ines confessed to Shen Qi, "Your contract is a free contract. When Rhodes Island does not summon you, you can enter and leave the ship freely."

"That's exactly what I want." Shen Qi was obviously satisfied. "When there are no missions, I can go out and kill monsters freely. Can I also earn merits?"

"indeed so."

Shen Qi's eyes lit up, this was his favorite way to play, just like he was playing a real-life open world game.

The two of them came to the fourth floor, where Shen Qi's room was. "Before you came to the island, I asked Dr. Kal'tsit to reserve a single room for you, next to my room. It wouldn't be very good if we shared a room."

"Who wants to sleep with their own system?"

"I understand." Inès was not angry. "After all, you still have your favorite operators."

"Ahem, stop it!" Shen Qi shouted, "Have you looked at my Ark account?"

"The first second I connected with you, the host, I knew your account information. You only have two operators set as special attention, one is Texas and the other is Silent Texas."

Shen Qi was immediately speechless, as all his privacy had already been exposed to the system.

"Come in and take a look." The two walked into the room. It was a spacious single room with a full range of living facilities, even - a bathtub?

"You probably don't have the habit of using the bathtub. You can try it another day." Ines patted Shen Qi's shoulder.

"One day I'm going to be in the bathtub..."

"Shut up! If you keep talking, this novel won't pass review!"

Shen Qi shut up immediately.

Then, Ines showed him the desk in the room and said, "I've given you a cell phone here, because your cell phone doesn't work in this world. You can use this to keep in touch."

Shen Qi took out his cell phone and pressed the power button several times, but it didn't turn on. He had no choice but to pick up the phone on the desk. The wallpaper on the phone was the logo of Rhodes Island, and the basic software of the phone was also complete. In addition, there was an app similar to WeChat, an app called "Merit Mall", and an app with the Arknights icon.

"The one that looks like V-Message is a chat app. In order to distinguish it from the V-Message in the real world, the eyes on the icon are replaced with the eyes of a collapsed body. As for the other one, it is the Ark game. You can log in with your own account and play." Inès explained.

"Can this phone download other games?"

"No." Ines answered quickly, "I know what you are thinking. You want to play Yuanshen on this phone."

"How do you know I'm playing with the soul?"

"As your system, how could I not know what you like to play?" Inès even smiled contemptuously.

Shen Qi rolled his eyes. It seemed that all the good things he had done before were seen through by the system.

He opened Arknights, and the interface inside was exactly the same as in reality. He entered his account and password, and a familiar voice of "Akanako" rang out - exactly the same.

Although he had reached level 120 last month, he still worked tirelessly to level up his character. Whenever a limited pool came out, he would go and draw with a jade, only to return home with a crushing defeat.

Shen Qi clicked into the operator interface, which was exactly the same as his account. He then checked other interfaces and modes, but there was no difference. He exited and then opened the chat software. The interface inside was no different from WeChat, except that it was changed to the Rhodes Island theme.

"Dr. Kal'tsit, Amiya and I have already added you as a friend in advance. In addition, there is an operators' group in Rhodes Island. Here is the group number. Please add it." Inès said on the side.

Shen Qi did as he was told and joined this group of operators.

【Qiannian has joined the group chat, click Welcome】

"Welcome newcomer, come to the bowl!"

"Breaking photos of newcomers!"

"Once you join the group, don't even think about leaving~"

The operators' greetings instantly filled the entire group chat, and Shen Qi felt that he was gradually integrating into the place.

“I am part of the group now.”

"Come on, you haven't even seen them before, and there are so many of them. You must be crazy playing with pigeons."

Shen Qi quickly sent out friend requests to many operators, and many of them were quickly accepted, but there was no news from operators like Skadi and Undertaker.

"Hey, Texas hasn't approved my friend request yet!" Shen Qi shouted.

"I'm working at Penguin Logistics now and don't have time to talk to you."

"How come you know it again?"

"Who says I'm an omniscient system?" Inès showed a look of disdain.

Shen Qi was speechless. He even doubted whether this unique system was created by Kal'tsit.

"Open the Merit Mall now. This should be what you are looking forward to the most." Ines signaled Shen Qi to open the Merit Mall. Shen Qi opened it. The inside of the app was rather monotonous, with only dozens of products displayed. Whether it was weapons, skills, items or talents, their currency unit was - Merit.

"This mall is your system mall. You can buy these things with merit." Ines pointed to a product. "This wooden fish is free. You can buy it directly."

Shen Qi clicked "Buy" and a black wooden fish appeared on his desk.

"Every time you strike the wooden fish, you gain +1 merit. The daily limit is 5000. You can strike it whenever you like." Inès handed him the stick for striking the wooden fish. "I saw that you liked striking the wooden fish before."

"what?"

Isn't this the same as an electronic wooden fish? !

This is too bullying!

Shen Qi tried knocking it, and the merit balance in the mall actually increased a little.

"Fuck, so cruel." Shen Qi then browsed through the goods. Most of these goods were items from the Arknights world view, of course there were also things that did not belong to this world.

"What the hell is this 6666 merit ender pearl?" Shen Qi shouted, "Isn't this from my world?"

"No problem, this is a legal system item." Inès said, "We'll look at this later. I'll take you to the medical department for a physical examination first. Doctor Kal'tsit has an appointment at 7pm."

"Wait!" Shen Qi suddenly shouted, his hands trembling, his breathing quickened, and he quickly clicked on the pop-up message on the phone screen.

"Oh my god, Texas accepted my friend request!!!"
