By the time they returned to their tent, the sun had already begun to set.

"It's getting late, we should head down the mountain." Doctor Liu didn't go into the tent, but prepared to take his leave from outside.

“Yes! I have to rush back to the military camp, otherwise the Second Prince will cause me trouble again,” Wang Dezhu said.

Qiao Tinghao did not try to stop them, but said, "Alright, Uncle Liu, Deputy General Wang, please be careful on your way down the mountain."

"Uncle Liu, I'll go down the mountain with you. I miss my mother, and I want to go home to see her," Ruan Mumu said, following behind the doctor and Wang Dezhu.

Qiao Tinghao didn't expect Ruan Mumu to also say she wanted to go down the mountain. He originally wanted to suggest that he go back with her, but when he thought about tomorrow's training mission, he couldn't bring himself to say it.

"Brother, I'll go up the mountain tomorrow night. Tomorrow is the fifteenth, and I have things to do," Ruan Mumu explained.

With her prompting, he immediately understood why Ruan Mumu wanted to go down the mountain, but he was currently unable to leave.

Fortunately, he had written three letters to his parents when he had time before, and had already given them to Ruan Mumu for safekeeping, just in case things turned out like this. He was terrified that his parents would be disappointed and return home after arriving in Liangcheng without receiving any news from him.

"Don't worry, brother, I'll definitely come up the mountain tomorrow night," Ruan Mumu said meaningfully.

When the three of them returned to the small courtyard in the green hills from the mountain, it was already getting dark.

Ruan Mumu took out a military flashlight and handed it to Wang Dezhu, saying, "Deputy General Wang, this is for you to use for lighting on the road! Here is the switch. Press this button when you use it, and you can turn it off after pressing it a few times."

Wang Dezhu took the flashlight, thanked Ruan Mumu, and rode away.

When Ruan Mumu returned home, Chen Donghua saw that her daughter had become thinner and darker, and she felt very sorry for her.

After dinner, Chen Donghua pulled Ruan Mumu to her yard to talk.

"Mumu, why are you doing this? What are you doing, a girl like you, training with a bunch of grown men?" Chen Donghua sighed helplessly.

"Mother, it's alright, what's a little hardship? It's all worth it to protect the people of our Northern Sheng Kingdom," Ruan Mumu said coquettishly, clinging to Chen Donghua's arm.

Thinking about what my daughter said made a lot of sense, and seeing that she seemed to have grown taller, I felt a little comforted.

She suddenly remembered the box of silver notes her youngest son had brought back that afternoon, and hurriedly opened the cabinet and took out the money box.

Ruan Mumu took the box, took out a thousand taels of silver notes and handed them to Chen Donghua, then said that she had other things to do and returned to her courtyard.

Chen Donghua felt a pang of sadness as she realized she hadn't even exchanged a few words with her daughter.

“It’s not always a good thing for a daughter to be too capable.” Chen Donghua laughed self-deprecatingly and went to chat with her parents.

Ruan Mumu returned to her courtyard, tossed the money box into her spatial storage, and then communicated with the spatial spirit in her mind: "Mr. Zi, please help me count the silver notes, and then tell me later what good things are available if I upgrade soon."

After waiting for several minutes without receiving a response from the purple elf, Ruan Mumu got tired of waiting and took her clothes to take a good bath.

"Oh, it's so comfortable at home! Just like my mother said, why am I doing this? Sigh, when will I ever be able to lie down and relax?" Ruan Mumu sighed repeatedly as she soaked in the bath.

After a relaxing bath, Ruan Mumu lay on the bed, pretending to doze off.

"Wow! Money! So much money! So much money!" Ruan Mumu heard the purple elf's joyful voice in her mind.

"Oh! My dear boyfriend, you finally showed up?" Ruan Mumu teased.

"Pah, pah, pah... How could you possibly deserve such a great boyfriend like me?" came the disdainful voice of the purple elf.

"Sigh... I don't give my money to strange men, what should I do? So much money..." Ruan Mumu said deliberately.

"Let me help you spend it!" the purple elf said anxiously.

"Dream on. Unless you tell me in advance what new features this upgrade will include, you won't get a single penny." After saying that, Ruan Mumu moved all the silver notes and silver coins out of her spatial storage.

As the purple elf watched the silver notes in her space vanish into nothingness, she let out a wail in her heart.

Realizing that he couldn't forcibly take it this time, he could only honestly answer, "After this system upgrade, it has reached level five. The main difference is that the copy function has been doubled compared to before."

The spiritual spring water output has increased to twenty cups per day, and your virtual space has increased to two hundred square meters.

Also, because you have the system with you, you have signal functionality in ancient times, which means you can use a mobile phone to make calls here.

And most importantly, you can now call your modern-day relatives, but you can only make two calls a month before the next upgrade…

Upon hearing this, Ruan Mumu was astonished to learn that a telephone could be used in ancient times. This system was truly incredible!

"Tell me quickly, what other functions does it have?" Ruan Mumu was overjoyed.

The thought that war is about to begin makes me realize how wonderful it would be to be able to communicate by mobile phone at this moment.

"Master, is there any other function you would like?" the purple elf asked tentatively.

"For example, can you conjure up a tank? War is about to break out, and I can't stop it. All I can do is protect my country." Ruan Mumu said, having heard that she could make a wish.

"Mainly, that's impossible. For example, you could ask for a drone! Or a bus or something..." the Purple Elf suggested cautiously.

"This is too ordinary, isn't it? I could have my older brother and his family buy these for me in the modern world," Ruan Mumu complained.

She had just been thinking that if she could get some war supplies, she could fight her way to the heart of the Western Rong Kingdom and defeat them so badly that they would be unable to fight back and would behave themselves. But her wish could not be fulfilled.

"Master, if you take five taels of silver and make a wish for five thousand taels of silver, only God might grant it..." The purple elf's voice grew softer and softer as it spoke, because it was also afraid that its master wouldn't give it the money. It needed to level up and become stronger.

Knowing she couldn't ask for too much at once, Ruan Mumu bargained, "Then it's settled. If I pay you to upgrade, in addition to what I just mentioned, give me twenty more phones, the kind with unlimited batteries."

The purple elf said with a pained expression, "Fine, fifty thousand taels of silver, bring it here quickly and arrange everything immediately..."
