Chapter 3153: Giving Them Weapons Wasn’t an Option
Thanks to Wen Xing’s copper coins, Ning Shu and Wen Xing found a lot of monsters and killed them.
Ning Shu also extracted a lot of these monsters from the stomachs of many women.
She cut open their stomachs to retrieve the creatures inside.
In the process, she repeatedly got her hands bitten by the creatures.
Then, while Wen Xing dealt with the creatures, she would stitch up the women’s wounds and call a taxi to send them to the hospital.
The two of them later went to a police station to inform the officers about the severity of the situation. Many people in the city were already injured, and the matter needed urgent attention.
Wen Xing even tried to ask the police for some advanced weapons.
The police took the situation seriously, as hospitals were overflowing, but they refused to issue guns, citing the already chaotic environment.
Giving them weapons wasn’t an option.
Who knew what they might do with them? At the police station’s entrance, vehicles were pulling out one after another, as armed forces were being deployed.
Wen Xing didn’t push the issue further, resigning to the fact that they wouldn’t get guns.
They would have to come up with another plan.
Ning Shu, who was still carrying her medical kit box, told Wen Xing, “We need to figure out a way to completely eliminate these things so they can’t reproduce anymore.”
Wen Xing rubbed her temples without saying anything. He was clearly unable to come up with a solution.
Ning Shu felt that at the rate they were going, they wouldn’t be able to keep up with the monsters’ growth.
“It’s a pity I don’t have access to a time-based spell. If we could use the time ordinance to attack, we’d definitely be able to wipe these things out,” Wen Xing commented.
Ning Shu’s eyes lit up. Didn’t she have a ruby ring, which was a time ordinance stone?
However, it wasn’t something she could easily bring out.
Before Ning Shu could say anything, 2333 had already chimed in. “No, you can’t.”
Ning Shu: Scram…
Wen Xing noticed Ning Shu’s sudden change of expression and asked, “What’s the matter?”
Ning Shu shook her head. “It’s nothing.”
“Then how come I was allowed to use the soul pearl in the past?” Ning Shu asked with a bit of frustration.
“You are an ultra task-taker now, and the higher-ups are watching your every move. I could bypass some things for you in the past, but not anymore. If we do something now, we’ll both be in serious trouble,” 2333 explained.
“Besides, you can’t use it in multiple task worlds, and your previous use of it is probably already recorded.”
Ning Shu: …
Task-takers were under constant scrutiny to prevent them from using their powers to wreak havoc in task worlds.
But she wasn’t trying to wreak havoc now!
Also, she had merged the pearl that could travel across planes with the soul pearl. Its properties might have already changed.
She really wanted to just throw all these monsters into that black hole.
However, these creatures would be a disaster no matter what world they were in.
“I think we should request elevated privileges from the higher-ups. This world needs intervention,” Wen Xing suggested.
Surprised, Ning Shu asked, “Request for elevated privileges?”
It was the first time she had heard of the term. “How do you apply for that?”
“You can apply through your system, which will report it for you. But you’ll need a privilege ticket,” Wen Xing explained. “Do you have one?”
Ning Shu smiled wryly. “Do you think I do?”
She had never even heard of a permission ticket before.
A so-called request for elevated privileges was allowed to be made when the task exceeded the abilities of the task-taker and the situation significantly impacted the world.
If approved, the task-taker could exchange for powerful weapons, and other task-takers could even be sent in to help minimize the damage to the world.
Ning Shu was well aware that she didn’t have any privilege tickets and had no idea how to acquire one.
She asked 2333, “How can I get a privilege ticket?”
“It’s pretty rare. Sometimes it’s part of task rewards, or you can exchange for one using faith and merit points,” 2333 replied.
Ning Shu asked, “How many faith and merit points do I need?”
“10,000 faith points and 5000 merit points.”
