Chapter 2: Loan Shark System
Without hesitation, he approached the boy and swiftly handed him the bag of money, his actions leaving the young boy bewildered.
He then ran away as far as he could.
Breathing heavily, Han Yichen's mind raced with thoughts of completing the mission in time. "Now the mission should be complete, right?" he pondered hopefully, his voice laced with anticipation.
However, as he awaited confirmation from the system, his hopes were swiftly shattered by its response. "[Mission failed!]" echoed in his mind, reverberating with disappointment and frustration.
Han Yichen's heart sank, his shoulders slumping with the weight of his failure. He had acted swiftly, thinking he had found.
The system's cold and threatening words pierced through Han Yichen's being, sending a chill down his spine.
"[Host will be given appropriate punishment! In normal cases, the punishment would be death, but since this is the first mission, the host must return 3000 QI coins. Every day, the price will double until the host doesn't pay! If the host is unable to pay within 30 days, then the host will be sold!]"
The weight of the consequences hung heavily in the air, leaving Han Yichen in a state of shock.
Gasping for cold air, Han Yichen's mind raced with the gravity of the situation.
He stared at the system before him, its presence a constant reminder of the impending punishment that awaited him.
Without wasting a moment, Han Yichen's determination surged within him.
He dashed back to the place where he had encountered the young boy, desperately hoping to find him. However, to his dismay, the boy was nowhere to be found.
Han Yichen searched high and low, scouring every corner, but there were no traces of the boy's presence. It was as if he had vanished into thin air.
Regret and frustration consumed Han Yichen's thoughts as he berated himself for his lack of foresight.
"I'm so dumb! I could have just taken that boy's shirt and given him money! Why am I so dumb!" he exclaimed, his voice filled with self-reproach.
The turning point that Han Yichen had hoped for was quickly proving to be a treacherous path filled with danger and unforeseen challenges.
Han Yichen took a deep breath, forcing himself to regain composure despite the mounting pressure of the situation.
Panic would only serve to worsen his predicament. He understood the importance of keeping a clear mind.
With determination in his eyes, Han Yichen swiftly began brainstorming various strategies that could potentially save him from the dire consequences that loomed over him.
"Hmm," he mused, rubbing his chin as he weighed the possibilities.
Suddenly, a spark of inspiration ignited within Han Yichen's mind.
Could there be some functions or features within the system that could aid him in this critical moment? The thought lingered, and he felt a glimmer of hope.
Without wasting another second, Han Yichen spoke with conviction, "Status screen." As if in response to his words, the requested screen materialized before his eyes, displaying vital information and potential tools that could shape his fate.

Han Yichen's gaze lingered on the negative value of 3000 Qi coins, a constant reminder of the burden he carried. Nevertheless, his attention shifted to the activation of the chatroom, seeking a sense of connection in this unfamiliar world.
"Ding! Enter a name!" the system prompted. Han Yichen pondered for a moment before confidently replying, "Book dragon."
To his dismay, the system responded with, "Ding! Already used!" Han Yichen persisted, suggesting "Swag dragon" and "Mighty dragon" as alternatives, only to be met with the same disappointing response. Ten minutes passed, filled with failed name suggestions until Han Yichen finally settled on "ABcD12a@a23."
As Han Yichen opened the chatroom, a wave of amazement and bewilderment washed over him. He was completely taken aback by the messages that filled the screen. Various individuals were selling extraordinary items and abilities, their words flashing before his eyes.

The messages in the chatroom were filled with absurdity, shocking Han Yichen to his core. Bloodline essence, the path to martial arts strength enhancement, was mentioned. It was said that by refining the bloodline essence of a beast, one could acquire a bloodline ability.
The more essences one absorbed and fused, the stronger the ability became.
The rank of the bloodline and the beast determined the power of the skill. Golden Rank was the highest bloodline rank, while the ferocious Beast was the strongest beast rank
If all of this information were true, Han Yichen realized that he had the potential to become one of the strongest individuals.
