"Did you see here? There is a slight bulge under the seventh eye stalk."
"And here, here and here, write them all in for me."
Wagla pointed at his flesh wings, tentacles and various small bumps on his body, and asked Ai Lan to write them down one by one.
Ai Lan was unambiguous after receiving the reward, while recording these subtle features.
At the same time, he took out a pen and drew a sketch for him.
"Your Excellency Vagla, please let me know if you have any other requests. I will write them all in my travel diary."
It is not difficult for Ai Lan to write a travel diary of tens of thousands of words to a foreign land.
After all, these experiences are all real, and it would not take much time to retell the process completely.
Later distribution was even simpler. He had his own tavern and just found a bard to spread the word.
After a while of busy work, Vagla finally finished all the requests.
"Did you remember everything I said?"
"Yes, I wrote it all down." After saying that, Ai Lan handed over the text that he had carefully beautified.
Despite Vagla's easy-to-talk appearance, the beholder race is famous for its eccentric temperament.
"Quack, quack, very good."
After reading Ai Lan's text, Vagla was indeed very satisfied.
"Just write it like this."
"Of course, Lord Vagla, your name will soon spread throughout the world of Ashan."
"It turns out you are from the world of Ashan."
When Vagla heard the name Ashan, he suddenly paused.
"Dragon Madness was launched some time ago, were you involved in it?"
"Slightly involved." This matter has caused such a big fuss, and it's not surprising that people from other lands have heard about it.
"Interesting, tell me the information you know."
I don't know why, the magic-eyed crow suddenly became interested in Long Kuangmisuo.
The Dragon Madness Mystery Lock has ended, and the relevant information has long lost its value. Naturally, Ai Lan doesn't care whether he talks or not.
"This incident came from an organization called the Cult of the Dragon Lich."
Next, he roughly told Vagla what he knew.
After hearing this, the magic-eyed crow burst into laughter.
"It's really interesting that Asha didn't stop such a bad incident."
"Boy, do you know what the world of Ashan is called in other worlds?"
"Um, I don't know."
Ai Lan has never even heard of Yasha's name, how could she possibly know this kind of news.
"The world of Yashan is the world created by the original Dragon God, so it is also called the Dragon God World."
"It's really interesting that Dragon Madness Lock appears in the world of Dragon God."
"Gahehehehe."
"Dragon God World?" As soon as he heard this title, Ai Lan felt something was wrong.
The creator god of the world of Ashan is actually the Dragon God.
However, the reputation of giant dragons in Ashan is very average, and among the rulers of the nine major camps, the proportion of giant dragons is very small.
This is obviously wrong.
This magic-eyed crow seems to know something, but he doesn't want to say it, and Ai Lan doesn't feel comfortable asking.
"That's it for today. Adventurers from the outer lands, you should leave."
Vagla suddenly yawned, shook his body unsteadily, and flew back to his lair.
Ai Lan watched his leaving figure, stood there thinking for a while, and then left with the others.
The task assigned to them by the gatekeeper obviously has no possibility of completion if the target is Vagra.
There must be other magic-eyed crows in the underground world.
"The gatekeeper tricked me."
In such an empty underground space, it is not easy to find a small magic-eyed crow.
They don't know how to predict things, so the only way now seems to be to run around and try their luck.
But including the time it takes to go back, there isn't much time left for them.
Fortunately, they had just learned the eagle eye technique, and their field of vision suddenly became much wider.
As a combat skill, Eagle Eye is still very effective.
"Brother, how about we look for it separately?"
"Let me think."
If they spend all their time in the underground world, they will have to give up many resources on land.
But this is outer territory, and it's too dangerous to act separately.
"No, let's go together."
"If it's good for us, we'll take it. If we can't get it, we'll leave."
I have already gained a lot this time, so there is no need to be greedy anymore.
Ai Lan took out the map and looked at it carefully.
"Look, there is an unknown resource point mark here."
"The distance from our location is about..."
He calculated based on his own small map, "It will take two days to go back and forth."
"Two days, including the time to go back, this adventure is just over."
"Brother, what do you mean, we just gave up the resources on the ground?"
"Yes." Ai Lan nodded firmly.
"If we eat one more resource point, we will already gain a lot from this expedition."
The strange mark on the map is a belt.
It's a very strange mark. Ai Lan doesn't understand what this belt wants to express at all.
But since he had already made a decision, he didn't bother to worry about it.
"Gray Crow, throw in the acceleration magic, we're going to start a rapid march."
"yes."
————————
When traveling in the underground world, if you are not familiar with the road conditions, encountering danger is almost inevitable.
Even with the guidance of the map, Ai Lan and his party encountered several attacks from dark creatures.
But this time, his battle strategy was to throw a few cannon fodder and then run away regardless.
The speed of the three of them was not slow. Several attacks allowed them to escape without any danger.
The cost was just the death of a few level 1 cannon fodder lizard warriors.
"Coming."
Looking at the getting closer marks on the map, Ai Lan's fatigue suddenly eased a lot.
Marching in such a dangerous wild map, of course he couldn't hand it over to the hosting system.
After running for nearly a day and night, his spirit was already a little tired.
"What exactly could the mark on the belt be?"
There's no way he's selling belts. There's no belt slot in the equipment column.
After walking for a while, all the marks on the mini-map were displayed, and Ai Lan and others finally saw a lonely house in the distance.
"Why is there a house in this wilderness?"
After running around the underground world for a day and a night, Ai Lan has already seen the open space around here.
Let's put it this way, there shouldn't be more than fifty living creatures in this area within a few hundred miles.
I don’t know the purpose of building this building in a place like this.
Alchemy Workshop【???】
Ai Lan became very interested in this alchemy workshop due to its strange architecture and puzzling markings.
"Come on, let's go over and take a look."
Since it's called the Alchemy Workshop, there shouldn't be any need to fight.
"Dong dong dong."
Arriving at the door of the workshop, Ai Lan found that the door was closed. He knocked on the door and waited patiently.
"Who?"
A man's voice came from inside the house.
Judging by the accent, it sounds like he belongs to a human or humanoid race.
Ai Lan calmed down and looked at the door expectantly.
"Squeak."
The door of the alchemy workshop slowly opened, and an old human man wearing a tall wizard's hat walked out.
"Reconnaissance."
Ai Lan subconsciously threw out a reconnaissance technique.
???
"I can't even see my name." He had encountered this situation many times. "He's not a hero again, is he?"
"We are adventurers from the outside world. We are passing by this place and want to pay a visit."
"May I ask you are?"
The old man looked them up and down, then stretched out his hand and tapped lightly in the void, and a transparent information bar appeared in front of his eyes.
Ai Lan was very familiar with this information panel, he could recognize it at a glance even if it was turned upside down.
Because this is exactly his attribute panel!
"It turns out that he is the chosen hero of the world of Ashan. Come in and have a seat, boys."
"Okay, thank you." Ai Lan took a deep breath. This old man was basically determined to be a hero.
Even in Phoenix Mountain, meeting two heroes in succession seems a bit exaggerated.
"Young man, would you like something to drink?"
"By the way, this is Phoenix Mountain."
The mysterious old man suddenly clapped his hands, as if he had thought of something.
He took out a few strange drinks from the magic refrigerator nearby.
"Come and try the local special drinks. They are very good drinks."
After speaking, the old man picked up a cup and drank it in one gulp.
Holy Fire【???】
Ai Lan looked at the burning wine glass in front of her and didn't know how to drink it for a moment.
Can you drink fire?
But seeing the old man finish the drink in one gulp and still looking like he was still unsatisfied, he couldn't help but pick up the cup and want to try it.
"It's really strange why there is a drink called sacred fire."
While thinking this, Ai Lan drank the blazing milky white flame in one gulp.
The moment the sacred fire entered the entrance, Ai Lan felt that his whole body was burning.
The next second, a system prompt rang in his ear.
"You have taken the sacred fire. The sacred flame will purify all the filth on your body."
"It is detected that there is no dirt in you that needs to be purified, and the sacred fire will sleep in your body."
"How about it, little friend? Doesn't this drink taste very unique?"
"Forehead."
Putting aside the effects of this drink, Ai Lan didn't taste it at all.
It's not that it has no taste, but he ate it too quickly and didn't taste much of it.
Zhu Bajie ate ginseng fruit.
"Ren, Gray Crow, you guys should try it too."
Seeing that nothing happened to Ai Lan, Ren and Gray Crow couldn't help but drink the sacred fire.
The effect they achieved was exactly the same as Ai Lan.
But in terms of taste, Ren and Gray Crow savored it carefully.
“Very unique taste, indescribable.”
"I have never tried the taste before, I can't find an adjective to describe it."
This is what they taste like.
"Hahaha, it's true. The taste of the sacred fire is really hard to describe."
Hearing their comments, the old man seemed very happy and asked them to talk about the origin of this drink.
During this chat, Ai Lan learned that the old man's name was Morinder, and he was an alchemist.
It's a very strange name, I've never heard of it.
However, Morinde's alchemy level can be seen from the sacred fire.
It will definitely be at the level of Grandmaster or above, and most likely at the Legend level.
As for Morinder's level, it's really hard to guess.
"Boys, you're just in time."
"My new work just needs someone to wear it and experiment with it."
As he spoke, Molinder took out dozens of drawings.
"Let each of you choose one."
"Drawings?" Ai Lan took one and looked through it carefully.
Ogre Power Belt [Production Blueprint]: A magical treasure blueprint that has not yet been officially released.
Production materials: a complete ogre scalp, ten grams of diamond powder, a intact ruby, and half a liter of the blood of an adult red dragon.
Equipment ability: Strength +2 after wearing (attribute limit 25).
"This belt is nice!"
The attributes are simply crude, but the effect is also very direct.
"It's a good thing, but the material is a bit difficult to work with."
The ogre is fine, but the blood of the adult red dragon is a bit troublesome.
Molinder still had dozens of drawings in his hand, and Ai Lan continued to rummage through them.
There are a lot of useful equipment in this area of the belt.
What rocket belt, storage belt, healing belt, power belt, monk belt, etc.
Finally, Ai Lan chose a commander's belt for herself.
Commander's Belt [Production Blueprint]: A magical treasure blueprint that has not yet been officially released.
Production materials: 100 captured battle flags, 1,000 dead souls killed in battle, 500 units of soul crystals.
Equipment effect: Leadership +1.
He didn't know where to get the materials, but the equipment effect of this belt was something Ai Lan couldn't refuse.
The Ogre Power Belt is perfect for Wren, no need to look any further.
As for Gray Crow, he was picking and choosing, not knowing what to choose, and finally picked up an air magic belt.
But after selecting the drawings, Ai Lan still had several questions before her.
First of all, this is a blueprint. They need materials and an alchemist to make the belt.
Secondly, there is no belt position on the equipment column. How do I wear the equipment once it is made?
Ai Lan told Molinder his doubts.
Molinder laughed, and with a little care, the three drawings turned into three belts and fell into their hands.
"I've helped you with the materials. As for the issue of wearing the equipment."
Molinder patted his waist and motioned for them to put on their belts.
Ai Lan took the brand new belt in her hand and put it on her waist.
"View properties."
The name of the belt is not displayed on the equipment column, but the leadership attributes are actually added.
