MTL - Freelance Artist-Chapter 1 Crimson is at your service

  Chapter 1 Scarlet is at your service

  【System load rate 99%...】

  Lin Zhibai adjusted his glasses, staring at the light red translucent subtitles in front of him in a daze.

   This mysterious progress bar seems to be inlaid in sight, and it has been the third day since it was loaded from scratch.

   Three days ago.

  Lin Zhibai officially celebrated his seventeenth birthday.

   After celebrating his birthday with his family, Lin Zhibai went back to his room for an afternoon nap as usual, but soon after he lay down, he started to have a headache.

   This is Lin Zhibai's old problem.

  Dizziness, fatigue, dreaminess, insomnia, night sweats, memory loss...

  Since the gang smashed his head three years ago, these things have almost become Lin Zhibai's daily life.

  The doctor diagnosed that it was because the brain was seriously injured and caused the intracranial related pressure to be unbalanced, so there were so many sequelae, and Blue Star's current surgical level could not be effectively treated.

  Lin Zhibai didn't want his family to worry, so he got up and took a painkiller.

  Unexpectedly, the headache was very severe this time, worse than any previous attack.

  There seemed to be many bugs crawling around the top of my head, my stomach was churning, I felt nauseous, and my tinnitus was severe.

  When Lin Zhibai realized something was wrong and wanted his family to rush him to the hospital, he couldn't control his body and passed out.

   About an hour passed.

  Lin Zhibai Youyou woke up, and was shocked to find that his brain was groggy. He had broken the mystery of the womb and awakened Su Hui from his previous life!

   "Am I time-traveling?"

  The moment the memory of the current life was awakened, Lin Zhibai's brain was extremely confused, and he almost thought that he was a traveler from the earth.

   It wasn't until he calmed down and sorted out his thoughts that he realized that his situation was not time-traveling.

   After all, he has actually lived in Blue Star for seventeen years.

   Should be regarded as reincarnation?

  As for the mysterious progress bar in sight, it appeared out of thin air after Lin Zhibai awakened his past life memories...

   The memory is a little fascinated.

  Lin Zhibai didn't notice that the loading progress bar in front of him reached 100% silently.

   "Ding Dong!"

  A mechanical voice suddenly appeared in the ear, bringing Lin Zhibai back to reality:

   "The system is loaded successfully, Crimson will serve you wholeheartedly!"

"system?"

  Lin Zhibai spoke tentatively.

  The mechanical voice responded: "The host can call this system Scarlet."

   Scarlet?

  Lin Zhibai's heart skipped a beat.

   I was about to take another look at the progress bar, but found that my vision was extremely blurred, and I could hardly see anything.

How is this going?

  Lin Zhibai, who was nearly 800 years old and highly myopic, sank in his heart and blinked vigorously, but everything outside the lens was still blurred, and he even felt a little inexplicable dizziness in his head.

  Lin Zhibai subconsciously took off his glasses.

   Shua!

  The moment you take off your glasses.

  Lin Zhibai's eyes suddenly brightened!

  Everything in the room became clear, even the small fonts on the posters on the wall, which are usually invisible, can be seen clearly at this moment!

  Lin Zhibai's heart trembled.

   My eyesight has recovered?

   At this moment, the emotionless mechanical electrical sound rang out again.

"During the loading of the system, it was detected that the host had suffered severe sequelae due to brain trauma, resulting in extremely poor physical condition. The automatic protection program was triggered, and a comprehensive treatment was performed on the host's body. The current host has completely returned to normal. His physical health, including his eyesight, has also returned to normal."

regain health! ?

  Lin Zhibai himself couldn't tell how many thoughts he was thinking at this moment.

   After a long silence.

  Lin Zhibai let out a deep breath, and finally calmed down his turbulent mood.

  The sound of the system sounded again.

"Next, Scarlet will briefly introduce the functions of this system to the host. First, the host can obtain the prestige admiration from others in various ways. When the external prestige admiration reaches a certain value, you can get the chance to draw a lottery provided by the system. all kinds of literary and artistic works.”

  Earth works?

  Lin Zhibai's heart skipped a beat.

  Although the memory of the previous life on Earth has been awakened, Lin Zhibai does not remember many things after a lifetime, and most of them are very general things.

  For example—

  Lin Zhibai remembers some well-known singers on earth, and also remembers the works of those singers, some of the singers' representative works. He can even barely hum the general melody of the chorus and a few lines of classic lyrics, but that's all.

   and have a system.

   Then wouldn't it be equivalent to owning a huge treasure house of literature and art called "Earth" in disguise?

  The introduction of the system is not over yet:

   "In addition to the regular prestige lottery mode, the system will release random tasks to the host from time to time. After the host completes the tasks issued by the system, they can get random skill points."

   "What are skill points?"

   "For example, talents such as singing skills or musical instruments, or life skills, etc., are all measured by skill points, and the specific effect will be known to the host later."

  Lin Zhibai was thoughtful.

  The so-called skill point is something to improve your talent?

   At this time, the system gave another prompt: "The host's current information has been detected."

   Several lines of light red translucent subtitles began to appear in front of Lin Zhibai's eyes, and the expression was very similar to the previous loading countdown.

  【Name: Lin Zhibai】

  【Age: 17】

  【Reputation: 86】

  【Piano: 48】

  【Guitar: 46】

  【Painting: 35】

  【Calligraphy: 30】

  【Summary: Perhaps because of your body, you have a small amount of talent, but you are not good at learning. 】

   Of course, learning is not good.

  Lin Zhibai was injured when he was fourteen.

  Before he was injured, his interests and hobbies were very mixed, and his parents were also willing to cultivate and support him, and found him some personal education.

  First I learned the piano, then I learned the guitar. I learned calligraphy and painting last. As a result, my head was injured before I could understand it. It has been abandoned for three years now.

   "Then do I have a task now?"

  Lin Zhibai, who hadn't been interested in anything for several years, felt his heart beating harder than ever before.

   "Ding Dong!"

  This notification sound is like the system's mouth: "The novice task is being released. For the specific task content, please check the text description."

next moment.

  Lin Zhibai received his novice task, and several lines of italic script subtitles appeared in front of his eyes.

  【Task Name: Restart Your Life】

  【Task content: When life restarts, everything is possible. Please start as a composer and set sail to release your first song. 】

  【Task Remarks: This mission will come with a host music start-up work. 】

  【Friendly reminder: The activation package has been stored in the system warehouse, and the host can read it silently. 】

   Startup works?

  Lin Zhibai silently said "Check the warehouse" in his heart, and an interface that looked a bit like a private warehouse in an online game suddenly appeared in front of him. The system also specially classified the warehouses.

  There is 【song】.

  There is 【Script】.

  There is 【novel】.

  There is 【Variety Show】.

  There are [manga].

  There is 【Game】.

  Lin Zhibai's eyes flickered.

There seems to be a famous playwright named Chekhov on Earth who said that if a gun appears in the first act of the story, the gun will definitely go off before the end. The same applies to the body. Since these categories in the warehouse exist, I will inevitably enter these fields in the future. Is this the rhythm of making myself a full-time artist?

   But this is still "Act One".

  These category entries are currently empty, and there is only a lonely song under the song category.

  The title of the song is "Dissipating Sorrow".

  In Lin Zhibai’s memory of his previous life, there seems to be such a song, but he can’t remember the melody and lyrics.

  But when Lin Zhibai saw this song in the warehouse, he felt a sudden numbness in his head, and immediately recalled all the information and content of this song.

   "Accept the mission?"

"accept."

  As if life really restarted from this moment, Lin Zhibai raised his eyes lightly, with billions of stars shining in his eyes.

  The past few years.

  Lin Zhibai was in a daze.

  At this moment, Lin Zhibai seemed to be reborn, as if he had stepped out of the fog and bathed in the sunshine of freedom, as if he could embrace the future with open arms.
