Peninsula: Superpowered Daily Life

Chapter 3 New Main Quest

In June, the waves in Hawaii are not big, which is perfect for beginners to practice. So there are many people on the sea, rising and falling with the waves, waiting in line for the next wave to arrive.

There are unspoken rules in surfing: whoever is closest to the crest of the wave has priority to ride it, while others must maintain a safe distance to prevent collisions and injuries. When returning, they should paddle back from the tail of the wave and line up to ride the wave from the crest to avoid obstructing others.

Zhou Wenzhe lay on the surfboard and waited. When it was his turn, there was a big wave that was 3 or 4 meters high. He quickly paddled with his arms and then stood on the surfboard with agility. Using the power of the wave, he performed some difficult surfing moves.

This scene drew cheers and applause from the other surfers.

After riding that wave, he lay back on his surfboard and paddled back to the waiting area, waiting for his next wave.

Just as he was waiting, a voice suddenly rang out behind him. It was a pleasant female voice, "Hello, your surfing move just now was really cool."

Zhou Wenzhe turned around and saw that the person he was talking to was a young woman sitting on a swan-shaped cartoon lifebuoy. The woman was probably around 24 or 5 years old, with fair skin and a slender figure.

He politely replied, "Thank you."

"Um... can you help me? I got swept here by the waves and can't get back," the girl pleaded somewhat shyly.

"Okay, sit down." Zhou Wenzhe didn't refuse and swam towards the shore, dragging the lifebuoy.

Seven or eight minutes later, the two got ashore.

"Thank you." The girl got off the lifebuoy and bowed in gratitude.

"Be careful next time, the rip current here is still very dangerous." Although Zhou Wenzhe wasn't tired at all, he pretended to be a little tired and sat down on the beach so as not to arouse the girl's suspicion.

"Okay, I got it. I'll treat you to dinner. I don't know what I would have done without you." The girl sat down next to Zhou Wenzhe. She had been playing in the shallow water at the beach, and she was so engrossed in watching him surf that she didn't notice that she had been swept into the ocean by the current.

"You're welcome. Are you Korean?" Zhou Wenzhe asked, turning his head.

When asked this, the girl asked curiously, "Yeah, how did you know? Are you one of them?"

"I could tell from your accent that my mother is Korean, so I guess I'm half Korean too." Zhou Wenzhe smiled slightly. Koreans have a distinct accent when they speak English, which he could tell immediately. And this girl was clearly East Asian, which was why he made that guess.

"Really? I thought you were Chinese."

"Oh? Why do you think that?"

"It's just a feeling."

"Your intuition is quite accurate; I'm also half Chinese."

"Haha, do you speak Korean?"

"Yes, I studied in South Korea back then," Zhou Wenzhe replied in fluent Korean.

"Really? When?"

"Hmm... when I was in fifth or sixth grade of elementary school, that was about ten years ago."

When this topic comes up, Zhou Wenzhe's memories immediately go back to his elementary school days, when he didn't have this task system yet.

"Oh." The girl looked Zhou Wenzhe up and down again, then said, "Then we should be about the same age. How old are you?"

"I was born in '94, what about you?"

"Me too, what month were you born in?"

"August."

"Then I'm older than you, you should call me Nuna," the girl said with a smug smile.

Zhou Wenzhe smiled but didn't respond to the question, because for some special reasons, he had some reservations about this form of address.

The girl didn't dwell on the question and continued, "Are you here for tourism?"

"Not entirely. I also have some things to do here. What about you?"

"I'm just here for tourism."

"one person?"

"Hmm, and you?"

"Me too."

"That's perfect, I was just worried about having no one to eat with. Come on, it's my treat." The girl stood up with a smile and extended her right hand to Zhou Wenzhe.

Seeing that the girl was so insistent, Zhou Wenzhe stopped refusing, grabbed her hand, and stood up.

Then, the two walked side by side off the beach.

"I'm staying at this hotel. I'll go upstairs to change my clothes first. Where are you staying?" The girl pointed to a five-star hotel across the beach.

"Go change, and we'll meet at the hotel entrance in a bit."

Zhou Wenzhe owns a house in Hawaii, a large seaside villa, which he bought more than a month ago for this mission.

Don't be fooled by how easy the last step of this mission seems to have been for him. He had been scouting the location for over a month beforehand, and he had found the time when there were the fewest people on Niihau Island to go on the mission.

After all, he is not invincible yet, and these superpowers cannot be discovered, otherwise he will definitely be used as a guinea pig for experiments.

"Okay, see you in half an hour then. I'll take a shower." The girl smiled slightly and walked towards the hotel.

"OK."

After the two parted ways, Zhou Wenzhe headed towards his villa, which wasn't far, just a few minutes' walk away.

On his way back, for some reason, the image of that girl kept replaying in his mind.

This was the first time such a situation had occurred in his more than 20 years of life.

Just as he was racking his brains trying to figure it out, the cold, robotic voice of the system suddenly rang out in his mind.

"You have a new main quest. Please check it carefully. The system will not issue any more quests to increase lifespan until you complete this main quest. Please be aware!"

Main quest?

The moment that word appeared, Zhou Wenzhe stopped in his tracks, completely stunned.

This is the most difficult task in the task system, bar none. The last time he received a main quest was 6 or 7 years ago. Back then, he almost lost his life trying to complete that main quest. With the help of medicine purchased from the system store, he even stayed in the hospital for half a month.

Most importantly, the main quests are accepted directly and cannot be refused.

I was just thinking about having a few years of freedom to relax, but now I'm in trouble again.

What's truly devastating is that there will be no more lifespan missions during this period, which is practically forcing him into a corner.

Coming to his senses, Zhou Wenzhe quickly returned to the villa and opened the mission interface.

When he saw the name of the main quest, he was completely dumbfounded.

This. . .

Why is this kind of mission?

[To carry on the family line]

This is the name of the main quest; you can tell what the quest is just by looking at the name.

But how could such a task be a main quest?

This is easy to accomplish. With his current wealth and family background, it's incredibly simple. There are countless girls who want to marry him and have his children.

There's definitely something fishy going on here.

Zhou Wenzhe quickly opened the task details, and when he saw the task content and requirements, he was even more dumbfounded, his mouth agape for a long time.

What the hell is all this?!

Surprisingly, he was allowed to find no fewer than five girlfriends within five years, and the intimacy level had to be 100. The rewards were tiered, with the more girlfriends he had, the better the rewards. If he reached ten girlfriends, his lifespan would be extended by an additional 20 years.

Such a reward is very attractive to him.

But what exactly is intimacy level?

Ding~

"The intimacy system has been activated for you. Please check it carefully."

The system's cold, impersonal voice sounded once again.

Zhou Wenzhe quickly clicked on the so-called "intimacy system".

It turns out that the highest level of intimacy is 100. According to the description, reaching this level is extremely difficult, even hellish.

Because at this time, there are several names of his family members on this system, and the highest intimacy level is only 85 points, which is his mother.

Damn it, this system is making its own life impossible.

I will be leaving this world in five years.
