Chapter 2 Quest System
The man returned to his cabin and changed into a set of dry clothes in the bedroom: a large Hawaiian-style shirt and a pair of brightly colored beach shorts.
After changing, he went to the deck at the stern of the ship, sat on the sofa, and with a wave of his hand, the treasure chest that had just disappeared reappeared out of thin air. Then he conjured up a key that was shimmering with golden light. The key looked very ancient, as if it were a product from hundreds of years ago.
He inserted the key into the keyhole of the box, turned it to the left, and with a "click," the box opened automatically.
The box contained nothing of value, just a uniquely shaped, dark-colored stone.
The stone is only the size of a palm, cylindrical in shape, with five inlay holes neatly arranged around the center on its surface.
With another flick of his wrist, the man produced five gemstones that shimmered in red, blue, gold, brown, and yellow.
The shape of the gemstone corresponds perfectly to the hole in the stone.
These five gems were obtained after he traveled to the most dangerous places in the world and endured countless hardships, during which he almost lost his life.
The man set the five gems into the stone in order, and after the last gem was set, the originally dark stone suddenly emitted a dazzling light.
After the light gradually faded, the stone in the man's hand transformed into a gemstone that shimmered with multicolored light, appearing extremely precious.
"Ding! Congratulations on completing the epic quest. Please check your rewards."
A very pleasant voice suddenly rang in the man's mind.
"It's been over two years, and we've finally completed this task."
The man was already used to the sudden sound. He played with the gem and couldn't help but sigh.
He then began to check the rewards for this mission.
He closed his eyes and concentrated, and then a 3D projection screen that looked like a game interface appeared out of thin air in front of him.
He swiped his hand and switched to the task interface.
Task: Find the five-colored stone (Completed).
Reward: One Five-Colored Stone, 5 points of free attributes, and +5 to maximum lifespan.
Five-colored stone: can instantly replenish energy, all attributes +10%, cooldown time 120 hours.
Upon seeing the longevity reward, the man smiled with relief. The reason he had spent over two years traveling across seven continents and expending countless efforts to complete this mission was precisely for this reward.
Otherwise, he might...
After receiving the reward, he checked his attribute panel.

... (dozens of skills omitted)
He first added all 5 free points he received from this mission to his stamina, bringing his stamina to 100 and all his attributes to triple digits. With the addition of the Five-Colored Stone's energy restoration and +10% to all attributes, his success rate in completing missions in the future will be greatly increased.
Looking at the attributes he had achieved after more than ten years of hard work, Zhou Wenzhe was very satisfied and also grateful that he could live a few more years.
Because he is about to turn 25, if his lifespan limit does not increase, he will have to say goodbye to this world immediately.
Now that five years have been added, he doesn't need to be in such a hurry anymore and can take a break.
In truth, he should be grateful for this mission system; otherwise, suffering from a congenital immune disease, he would have gone to another world more than a decade ago.
He went from being completely bewildered and terrified at the beginning to now accepting it gladly and taking it for granted.
As for why a game-like task system suddenly appeared in his body, he couldn't figure it out at all, because it was too magical. He could only guess that this world might have been used as a game world by some powerful being in the universe, and he was the chosen player.
As for whether there are other players like him in this game world, Zhou Wenzhe dared not say for sure. In any case, he had not encountered a second one in his more than ten years of doing quests.
However, during this time he encountered some strange events that science could not explain, and he even saw creatures that had never been recorded before.
After so many years, he has gained some basic understanding of this "game world". The games he usually plays on computers or mobile phones are all pre-set by the system, but this game world is not like that. It is full of uncertainty and potential for development.
Zhou Wenzhe is also completely autonomous; he is not under any invisible control. He is only forced to work hard to complete various tasks issued by the system in order to live a few more years.
The tasks issued by this task system are all kinds of strange and varied, including all types, such as helping old ladies cross the road. Of course, this was during his youth. As he grew up, the tasks became more and more difficult, to the point that it was no exaggeration to say that they were life-or-death situations.
Over the years, Zhou Wenzhe has experienced many identities, such as private investigator, mercenary, assassin, and even once transformed into a young woman to act as a corporate spy.
After this mission, he also gained a new skill called "Transformation," which allows him to transform into a designated woman, but this comes with other conditions.
The rewards for each mission vary, with higher difficulty resulting in better rewards. However, missions like the one he just completed, which directly increase lifespan, are very rare. Therefore, he tries his best to complete any mission he receives of this type.
After all, survival was his only goal.
Of course, not all tasks can be completed 100% of the time, and there will be penalties for failure. After experiencing the penalty once, Zhou Wenzhe never dared to do tasks passively again.
He then opened his equipment inventory and placed the newly acquired five-colored stone into the accessory slot. At that moment, the system's cold, impersonal notification sounded again: "Equipment is now bound to you and cannot be traded. Confirm/Cancel."
"Sure."
How could Zhou Wenzhe possibly trade away the treasure he had obtained with such great effort? Of course, he chose to confirm without hesitation, especially since such equipment as jewelry was already very difficult to acquire.
In his more than ten years of missions, he had only obtained five accessories, all of which had mediocre attributes.
Zhou Wenzhe had the system recycle the replaced accessory, and he received some gold coins in return. These gold coins could be used to buy consumable items in the system shop.
At the same time the five-colored stones were inlaid into the jewelry box, a necklace of the same material appeared around his neck in reality, although the light it emitted was not as dazzling.
After doing all this, Zhou Wenzhe went to the cockpit, raised the anchor, started the yacht's engine, and headed towards Hawaii Island, the largest island in Hawaii.
In the past two years, in order to complete the "Five-Colored Stone" task before his death, he dared not delay for a moment, racing against time, and did not even go home. Now he can finally relax.
