Chapter 15 First System Mission
[Ding! The system can assist you. You'll be rewarded with the professional driving skills. But, you'll have to complete a task given to you at the specified period of time. If the task isn't completed, then not only would you lose the skill, you'll also be punished by the system.]
Jack wasn't expecting that there would be something like this. After all, when the introduction of the system was being made, he wasn't told that there was anything called missions. But, it seems that it exists.
'What is this mission thingy?' Jack asked.
[Ding! This is an emergency mission program. In the situation where the host has no way out, the system can provide what is needed. But, it's like you're purchasing it and you'll pay later at a given period of time. The payment method would be for you to complete the task that the system will assign you. And, the task must he completed within the given period of time, otherwise, you'll be punished after the reward is taken away from you.]
Jack was left stunned for a while. Then he thought to himself, 'It seems that the system won't let me be embarrassed.'
After a moment of thought, he asked expectantly, 'What is the mission?'
[Ding! The mission that you'll have to complete so that you can permanently have the skill is as follows: Task; Earn money by participating and winning a race. Time limit, 3 days.]
Jack thought for a moment and felt that the mission wasn't that difficult. There were several rich second generation kids racing at the mountains. All he needed to do was to get there and sign up for the competition.
The time limit that he had been given by the system was three days. He can complete all the things that need his urgent attention within two days. Then, on the third day, he would be able to complete the mission given to him by the system.
Anyway, he was wondering why the system would give him a mission like, win a race to earn money, seriously? But, he decided not to pursue the issue as he could see that the people outside were giving him strange gazes.
After all, he had gotten into the car for about three minutes but there was no activity yet. They were thinking to themselves, 'Why isn't he driving already? Or he doesn't know how to drive it? If so, then why did he buy it?' Of course, they wouldn't dare to say this out loud.
The first reason was that, they didn't know Jack's character, if he would be offended by that statement and retaliate or not. The second reason was because none of them knew of Jack's background. If the background was too big, then it was better to try to get on his good side than trying to anger him.
At this time, Jack stretched his head out of the window and called George, "I know you like cars so much. Come in here and experience it. Maybe in the future, if you work well, I'll reward you with a sports car."
George who was still speculating the reason as to why Jack wasn't driving yet immediately became flustered after hearing Jack's words. One had to know that this Bugatti Veyron was worth $73M.
He himself had never been In a sports car worth several hundred thousand, let alone one that cost several tens of millions. Of course, he was happy that his boss wanted him to try the car with him, after all, this was the first time that the boss was going to drive it.
Then, what made him even happy was the promise that the boss had just made. He would receive a sports car of his own as long as he performed his duties well. But of course, he knew that the most important thing was loyalty. If he proved his loyalty, his boss would surely treat him better.
Thinking of this, he immediately rushed to the car while ignoring Evans's envious gazes. After all, although Evans was selling the cars, that didn't mean that he could afford them even with his high salary. There were cars that were absolutely out of his league, and the Bugatti Veyron was one of them.
After reaching the car, George immediately got in after Jack opened the door for him.
After George got in, Jack immediately made a decision to accept the system mission. 'I'll take it.'
[Ding! Advance reward claimed. Professional driving skills acquired. Merging the skill with the host..10%...50%...80%...100%....Merging completed. Task assigned, the host will have to complete it within three days or he would receive system punishment.]
As soon as he said that he accepted the task in exchange for the reward, he felt warmth washing over his body, more so his head. It took a single second for all of this to happen.
As Jack regained his focus, George was done putting on the seatbelt. Jack on the other hand, he felt that he was very familiar with the sports car. It was as if he had been handling the car since he was born.
He immediately started the car, put on the safety belt before stepping on the accelerator.
Vrooom! Vrooom!
The roars of the Bugatti echoed in the silent night. Then, with in one swift motion, the Bugatti immediately galloped towards the gate. The acceleration of the Bugatti was about 100km in 2.5 seconds.
So, in no time, they had arrived at the gate. The guards had already gotten ready to open the gate as soon as they saw Jack getting in the car. So, they immediately pushed the gate open, letting Jack get out of the palace unhindered.
As soon as he got on the road that led out of the residential area, the speed of the Bugatti Veyron immediately shot up. Considering the fact that the community here was where the rich stayed, the number of cars that could be found on the road were small.
For this reason, Jack had no reservations at all, he wanted to test the speed of this Bugatti. After all, what was this issue of it having a maximum speed of about 350mph only for it to be driven at a speed of 60mph or less?
George who was sitting on the passenger seat was immediately frightened by the way that Jack was driving. After all, the speed was just fast in that the vehicles that they were meeting or overtaking only noticed that a car had passed by a second after they had already gone past.
This was the first time that George had seen a car move like this on such a road. After all, although they were racing back then, but the road that they were using was a mountainous one, that would have been cleared before the competition.
At the corners, as long as he could see what was coming from the other side, Jack never reduced the speed and did the drift. He wasn't worried about the car flipping over. After all, with the professional driving skills, there was no way that he could get into an accident due to his driving.
With drifts, Jack went around the residential area for two laps before heading back to the palace. To go around the residential area for two laps,not only took Jack about half an hour.
The guards immediately opened the gate after hearing the roaring of the Bugatti's engine. Although the car was moving at a high speed, Jack was able to stop the car right on tike in the parking lot, just beside the Bentayga.
George had previously parked the freightliner on the further end of the parking lot. On the other hand, Jack was parking closet to the center. At this moment, the walls of the parking lot were down.
After getting out of the car, George immediately let out a sigh of relief. After all, the Bugatti's speed and Jack's insane driving had frightened him to the extend that he wanted to immediately jump out of the car.
But, he knew that if he jumped out of the car, he would immediately die or have most of the bones in his body broken due to rough landing in the tarmac.
The only comfort that he had was that, he was putting on a seatbelt and the car was bulletproof. That implied that not even a bullet could pierce through it. So, normal collision or flipping accidents wouldn't be able to destroy the car.
Jack got out of the car and looked at Evans before saying, "The car is good." Then, he took the receipts and the documents that showed that he'd received the car before signing them.
With Jack's skill as a professional driver, he could immediately find out if there was a problem with the car. So, although he wouldn't be able to deal with most of the problems if there were, he could at least deal with the most simple ones.
After sending Evans and his team off, Jack looked at George and asked, "Where do you live? I'll take you there."
George was immediately flustered and scared. After all, with Jack's maniac driving, although he was a cars enthusiast, he couldn't enjoy the thrill of the sports car if Jack was going to be the driver. So, he immediately thought of refusing.
After all, it was still nine, close to ten. So, he could still get a taxi to get him home. After thinking it through in a short moment, he replied, "Thank you boss but I wouldn't want to disturb you. I will just take a cab home."
"You know that it's rate to find a cab in this part of the city. After all, almost all of those living in this area have their own cars." As Jack said this, he headed towards the Bentley Continental GT. He hadn't tested the car yet.
George couldn't argue back as what Jack had said was the truth. He would have to walk to the area where the taxis passed or wait here for a chance that there was a person coming to this residential area in a cab.
For some reason, when he saw that Jack wasn't going to drive the Bugatti Veyron, he was relieved. After all, the speed of the Bugatti Veyron was far higher than that of the Bentley Continental GT. So, he immediately followed Jack and entered the Bentley Continental GT.
