Chapter 6 Nika with a crooked neck
6.
Wang Shuo felt that everything was like this, and he even wondered if he was dreaming, but the surroundings looked a bit of science fiction and the living assistant of the beauty in front of him were all reminding Wang Shuo that all this was true.
"Well... so, I have really become the trial store manager of this store?" Wang Shuo said in disbelief.
"Yes, the store manager, I am your assistant. I can help you with any need."
Wang Shuo felt quite comfortable when he was said by such a cute beauty, but he couldn't help but ask when he remembered what the director said before leaving.
"What is really the seventh generation humanoid information terminal? Are you just a terminal? Smart AI?"
Wang Shuo is now looking at the girl who has become her assistant from a close distance. No matter how Wang Shuo looks at it, it is hard to believe that she will be an information terminal. This is a living person.
"Yes, the store manager, I am the seventh generation information terminal of the Empire. But maybe your understanding of information terminal is relatively shallow. I am not the smart AI you understand in Earth Technology."
"You can simply understand me as an artificial life. I have an independent and complete soul, but my soul and the imperial terminal technology combine to form an extremely special digital life."
"But no matter how you look at it, you look like a human..."
"Imperial Technology is far beyond your imagination. The surface and body of the information terminal have everything. There are human-shaped carbon-based life like me, silicon-based life forms, energy forms, and brick-shaped ones. In short, there are all kinds of things. For example, the director, his information terminal is his left hand."
"Well... Simply put, you are a digital life, but you have a human body. I can roughly understand this way, right?"
"Yes, yes." The assistant replied softly.
"By the way, what's your name?" Wang Shuo couldn't help asking.
"I just left the factory and don't have a name yet. The number is 7-YX212-RX7-YE1314777. If the store manager needs it, you can give me a name."
Looking at the blonde girl in front of him, Wang Shuo suddenly remembered an anime he had watched before, the human-shaped computer angel heart.
So he said, "Well... Then I'll give you a name, it's Jiji, how about it?"
『JJ?』The blonde girl tilted her neck for a while, shook her head and said, "Shopkeeper, please allow me to raise an objection. According to the Internet terminology database I just scanned the earth, JJ is not a very elegant name. I hope you can change it."
"Uh..." Wang Shuo was really stunned. To be honest, he definitely didn't think about that. Wang Shuo just suddenly thought of this name because the heroine of the human computer angel heart was Jiji.
However, he was also speechless by the blonde girl's refutation. He made up for a little bit of thought. If he had called such a beauty all day long...JJ?
The picture was so beautiful that Wang Shuo could not look directly at it.
In an instant, he immediately denied the name.
So he said, "This name is PASS, I'll think of another one for you!"
"Um...then call Veronica." Wang Shuo was trying hard to name a little, so he decided to think about it casually.
"Veronica..." The blonde girl thought about it for a while again, and then said happily, "Veronica can, then I will call Veronica from now on."
After getting the name, Nika looked very happy.
Wang Shuo couldn't help but feel happy when he saw a smile appearing on Nika's face.
"Well, Veronica is your full name. I usually call you Nika so that people can avoid saying that I will fill up the word count."
"Yes! Nika likes the name Nika very much!" Nika showed a bright smile.
Damn, it’s so cute! Wang Shuo feels like he’s been sucked in blood!
But he found a question, why is Nika still looking at herself with her neck tilted?
"By the way, Nika, can you speak too far? I see you keep tilting your neck to the left, and I want to be crooked."
『Sorry, the store manager, Nika tried hard... to straighten her head...』
Nika said as she tried to straighten her head, but after a long time, she still couldn't straighten her.
"No, the store manager, Nika's head broke down when she left the factory, but she was fixed. Now she can't turn it around."
"Uh...well, that is to say, you can only speak with your neck tilted in the future?"
"Yeah, the store manager."
Well... Wang Shuo couldn't help but tilt his neck slightly to look at Nika.
Then he found that after accepting this setting, Nika's crooked neck seemed to be even more cute!
No, he was so cute again.
Wang Shuo found that he was not calm enough today, so he continued to recite in his heart silently, "It must be a boy so cute." The restlessness in his heart gradually calmed down.
Then he thought for a moment and continued to ask.
"Well, Nika. I have some questions, can you answer?"
"Yes, the store manager, as long as I have questions within your permissions, I will answer truthfully." Nika nodded with her neck tilted and said.
"What empire you just kept talking about...what exactly is it?" Wang Shuo first asked a key question.
"The Empire refers to the Dawn Empire, which is the top civilization that governs countless multiverses and reaches the top of the void."
"Uh... OK, what about this backtracking office? Can you introduce it?"
"The Backtrack Office is a subsidiary organization affiliated to the Life Backtrack Bureau. The Backtrack Office was established 24 years ago and is an organization that was recently established. It is still piloting only in the multiverse where we are currently affiliated, and has not been promoted on a large scale within the entire multiverse."
"Well...what is the life retrospective? What the hell?"
"The Life Retrospective Bureau is affiliated to the Space-Time Management Department and is one of the three major branches of the Space-Time Management Department."
"What are the other two branches of the Time and Space Management Department then?"
"The Time and Space Management Department has three subordinate institutions, namely the Destiny Judgment Bureau, the Life Retrospective Bureau, and the Reincarnation Administration Bureau."
"The Time and Space Management Department is one of the six directly affiliated institutions of the Morning Light Empire. Therefore, the Life Retrospective Bureau and the Retrospective Office are all part of the Morning Light Empire."
"Uh, okay..."
Wang Shuo looked confused. Although he hadn't understood what these institutions meant, he still understood one thing.
That is, this Morning Empire is a powerful civilization. These retrospective companies and life retrospectives are all high-end existences that make people completely unaware of.
And I was inexplicably on the pirate ship and became the trial store manager of this branch of the backtracking office?
Wang Shuo still felt like he was dreaming.
Then, to judge whether something is a dream, the easiest thing is to try it.
So Wang Shuo asked directly: "What can we do when we go back to the office?"
"We can go back to the office and go back to the time." Nika replied.
"There are 3 modes for time backtracking:"
『1, substitute mode.』
『2, God's mode.』
『3, onlooker mode.』
“What is the difference between these two modes?”
"The substitution mode is to use the store manager as the main perspective to trace back time. In the substitution mode, you can change your life."
"God's mode is to move you out of the cause and effect of this multiverse, allowing you to go back to time from the perspective of God. In God's mode, you can change the lives of others."
"As for the onlooker mode, it means that the customer returns to the past by taking the regret medicine, and the customer changes his life by himself. In the onlooker mode, you can only watch, but not interfere with the customer's behavior after returning to the past."
"Um..." Wang Shuo thought for a while and said, "Simply put..."
“The substitution mode is: change my own life.”
“God’s model is: I go and change other people’s lives.”
"The onlooker mode is: others change their lives."
"Can I understand this way?"
"Yes, the store manager, your understanding is very insightful, and you are definitely suitable to be a tour guide." Nika praised with a smile.
"Well, then I can really go back to the past? What should be the limit? What would it take?"
Of course, Wang Shuo would not think that a despairing function like backtracking time can be used without restrictions, so he must have to pay something.
Sure enough, Nika replied: "Retracing the time requires the consumption of causal coins."
"Cause and effect coin? What is that?" Wang Shuo couldn't help asking.
"Cause and Effect Coin is the currency that is used in the back-retrospective firm. Cause and Effect Coin has many uses, such as back-retrospective time, forward-retrospective time, and can also strengthen your body, exchange for some items, abilities, bloodlines, etc.."
"Anyway, there are causal coins, and you can do a lot of things."
"Then where does this causal coin come from?"
"There are 3 ways to get the origin of the causal coins."
"Level 1, 1st level traceability firm will automatically recover 5 karma coins every day."
『2. Help others to relieve their regrets and collect detachment. For every 1 point of detachment, you can get 1 causal coin."
『3, Sell regret medicine.』
"Then do I have causal coins now?"
"Yes, you have the initial 20 causal coins in your account now."
"So, can I use it to go back to time?"
"Of course." Nika replied.
"Okay! This is a donkey or a horse. Just pull it out and you will know! Is your empire so awesome? Let's try it out!"
"Give me time backtracking, just substitute it into the mode!"
