Chapter 386 More Heavenly Jobs

n'Ding!'
n'Host.... the system has a few new missions for the host!'
n'_'
n.
nLandon Let out a long sigh... and quickly checked out this mission from his boss.
nAt this point, what was the point of continuously grumbling about it?
nIf he did so, then wouldn't he die out of anger, or have a heart attack sooner or later?
nHe quickly looked at his mission tab and sighed again.
nDammit!... there were 3 new missions waiting for him there.
n.
nSide-Mission 8: Within the empire of Terique, the current ruler..... King Michael Parcely is being held captive and poisoned continuously by one of his Concubines.
nHer name is Queen Kamara..... and she is also the little sister of Nopline.
nRight now, even though Kamara doesn't plan on killing Micheal..... unbeknownst to her, the toxic drug that she keeps giving him will take his life in 2 month's time if he isn't rescued immediately.
nAnd that's where the host comes in.
nFor this mission, the host has 3 main jobs:
n▪Rescue and hide King Micheal away from Kamara and her minions.
n▪
u0026 Treat King Micheal within Baymard.
nMission Deadline: October 7th, 1026... (1
u0026 half month from now).
nPunishment for Failure: 3% of the host soul pool will be devoured by the system.
nP.S...Host needs to rescue and begin treatment on him immediately.
nBecause if Micheal dies, then the future plans that the heavens had projected out for Terique.... will be all for naught.
nAnd if that happens.... then the host will get some of his Soul Pool sucked out him instead.
nSo the host should take note.
n.
nLandon looked at the first mission and nodded while reading.
nEver since he had transmigrated here, he had realized that in planets or universes that didn't have any sort of magic mystical beings, or heavenly powers to them.... the heavens couldn't directly affect the humans of these regions.
nHumans had the right to turn good or turn bad..... and that was the freedom that was given to them by the heavens.
n.
nSo how do the Gods punish, humble or bless the humans in these non-magical worlds?
nSimple!
nBy sending or directing someone to do so.... it could be subconsciously, or unconsciously.
nBut either way, the job would get done just like how the heavens wanted it to be.
nIf one wanted a million dollars, it wasn't going to drop down from the sky just like that....
nRather, someone would probably offer a job or position that could allow one to make that sort of money..... or one could get it through donations.
n.
nAgain even at that, it was the individual's choice to use that chance and make money.... or mishandle the opportunity given to him
/her.
nThe heavens generally always sent helping hands and even punishments to several humans in different intervals in their lives.
nIf one had a penny for how many chances one had to get better, but chose to go with the wrong option.... then most people would be living somewhat comfortably by now.
n.
nAnd sometimes, one's karma from the bad things he or she had done in their previous lives.... also played a role in some of the bad things that were happening to them as well.
nIn this case, only by doing good and accumulating good karma, would they be able to fix these issues.
n.
nAs for things like the weather, floods and so on..... of course the heavens could control these ones to a certain degree as well.
nBut in general, living things on these planets were left alone to their own choices... and the Gods were the ones who usually sent them with several opportunities for change.
nSo whether they took the chance or not, was not the faults of the Gods.... but the choices of these humans.
n.
nFor example, the Gods had allowed Landon to make alarm clocks here.... that was a blessing to them.
nIf an alarm clock rang out and someone chose to sleep in, and later on give a bad impression of themselves at work.... that was their choice.
nAgain.... if one decided to take in something toxic and harmful after they had been told about the consequences countless times..... then that was their choice as well.
nAnd when they reflect on their sick beds, they would also realize how many times people had come to them with helping hands at that time.
nHumans were blessed with that freedom of choice from the heavens.... and the opportunities were given to them more than 10 times on a daily basis.
n.
nBut in cases where one's bad decision could affect the lives of thousands and even millions..... the Gods usually sent someone like Landon to specifically do these tasks.
nThis time, they were done giving options to these people.
nIt was either their way, or the highway.
n.
n'King Michael Parcely...'
nReading through everything, he was shocked that Kamara was Nopline's sister.
nThe apple really didn't fall far away from the tree.
nAnd to make matters more interesting, Kamara's only son, Lecter Parcely.... was actually the son of king Michael's younger brother, Raul Parcely.
nAnd from what he had just read, Raul had been planning Michael's downfall for more than 15 years now.
n'What a patient man!', Landom thought, while also making plans on his next moves.
nSigh..... It looks like very soon, he would be leaving Baymard again.
n.
nLooking at his punishment for not failing to complete this mission..... Landon was still utterly confused by it all.
n'System..... what exactly is my 'Soul Pool'?'
n'Answering to host.... it's a pool filled up entirely with the host's soul, that can be strengthened and expanded infinitely.
nHost should know that with every passing mission, the host soul pool will get stronger and stronger.
nSo the host can only advance to the next world if his soul pool gets stronger while staying here.
nAnd only when the soul pool reaches a certain level, will the host also be able to see the Gods.
nBecause if the host sees the Gods now, the light and heavenly spiritual strength from them.... would instantly kill the host from a Galaxy away, talk less of seeing them face to face.
nOf course in addition to that, the host should note that while staying in this world... if the host's soul force doesn't increase due to countless punishments or deductions from the system... then the host will be obliterated on the spot, since he won't be able to advance into the next world.
nSo host should take note'.
n.
nLandon listened to the system and didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
nSure enough, even though he wouldn't get destroyed for not completing this mission..... the system would still obliterate him after sucking out a certain amount of from his soul pool.
n''System.... so why didn't you explain it to me previously?'
n'This system had assumed that the host was smart enough to guess what it was.
nBut.... it looks like this system had overestimated the host's intelligence.
nSorry for my negligence host'
