Taking out the route map, Ai Lan compared it with his own mini-map.
After walking for a few more hours, you can reach the valley.
"It's still more than three days away from Ironwood Village, so it's quite fast."
These days, Shuren Fortress is on the road 24 hours a day. Ai Lan is sitting in the fortress with his feet up, not having to worry about anything, it is very comfortable.
He also encountered several common resource points along the way, but in order to rush for time, he walked in a straight line and missed more resource points.
At this time, the importance of reconnaissance becomes apparent.
If Ai Lan's reconnaissance level could be two levels higher, he would definitely be able to find more resource points.
"Boss, look, there's an old man in front of you!" Kaka, who was on guard, suddenly shouted.
"Huh?" Ai Lan glanced at the mini map. No mark appeared. "Is it a player?"
He searched for Kaka and looked over, only to see an old man with a white beard in a gray robe sitting in front of a puddle, seemingly busy with something.
"Something weird."
He looked left and right and felt strange. The small puddle was very shallow, and it didn't look like it could be fished.
There is no mark on the map, indicating that this is not a resource point.
So what is an old man doing sitting here?
"Reconnaissance."
?????
Ai Lan threw a reconnaissance technique from a distance, but got a series of question marks.
He also encountered this situation with Kaka.
But Kaka’s elite template and primary reconnaissance technique can also see a name.
This old man can't even see his name at all, only a series of question marks.
"Have I met a hero?"
Through various information, Ai Lan already knows that in the new world, heroic units are extremely rare.
If this weird old man is really a hero, then no matter what, he should go and have a look.
"No, even if there is only one percent chance that he may be a hero, I should go and have a look."
If ordinary players want to get ahead, they must seize every opportunity.
Ai Lan, an ordinary player, wants to compete with big guilds, top studios, and professional players.
He cannot escape this kind of random event that cannot be judged.
"Kaka, let's go and meet him."
Now that he had made a decision in his mind, he no longer hesitated and walked directly out of the tree fortress and came to the gray-robed old man.
"Old gentleman, what are you sitting here for?" He expressed his doubts simply.
The old man in gray robe heard this and pointed to the small puddle in front of him, "Young man, what do you think this is?"
"A puddle." Ai Lan threw dozens of reconnaissance techniques into it, but nothing changed.
He really couldn't see anything strange about this puddle.
"No, this is a space-time node."
"Just now, a chosen hero was born here." The mysterious old man pointed to the sky and then to the puddles on the ground.
"A player was born here just now, so where are they now?" Ai Lan looked at the old man carefully, "Then where is this chosen hero now?"
"Oh, I just threw him to another continent."
casually...
Okay, now Ai Lan can basically confirm that this old man is a hero unit.
First, let's mourn for half a second of silence for the unlucky player.
"Through this space-time node, I can get many interesting items through the dimensional wall."
The old man in gray robe was very talkative. He not only introduced the role of time and space nodes to Ai Lan, but also took the initiative to demonstrate it.
"You take good care of it."
The old man put his hand into the puddle and fished it out a few times.
The small puddle that should have been splashing around was like a mirror, only fluctuating slightly for a few times before returning to calm.
When the old man stretched out his hand from the puddle, there was a pink women's underwear in his hand.
Dragon Queen's Original Underwear
This is the information Ai Lan obtained using reconnaissance techniques.
"It seems that I have caught something extraordinary." When the old man saw this underwear, his face became solemn, "I want to take this underwear back to the Mage Tower and study it carefully."
The old man in gray robe carefully hid the underwear in his arms. The gentleness of his movements made Ai Lan couldn't help but wonder, did he really take it back for study?
But seeing the serious expression on the old man's face, he chose to bury his doubts deep in his heart.
"Young man, do you want to give it a try?"
"As long as you put your hand in, you may get a mysterious item."
"Ding!"
As soon as the old man finished speaking, the system's beep sounded immediately.
"Trigger random events, the Master of Time and Space??."
The Archmage of Time and Space: The Archmage of Space and Time has broken through the dimensional barrier. As long as you put your hand into this space-time channel, you can obtain mysterious items.
Warning: Crisis and opportunity often coexist.
The warning at the end of the system is very interesting. It seems that there may be dangerous items among the mysterious rewards.
Such as curses, explosives, acid, etc.
"Is it enough to just put your hand in? Is there a limit to the number of times?"
Ai Lan still has the courage to take a gamble.
What he fears most is actually not being able to limit his desires.
"No, you can try as many times as you want."
The old man gave him a meaningful look, indicating that he could take action at will.
"Huh, I understand." Ai Lan was sure almost instantly that this was a big pit.
"Kaka, go back to the Treant Fortress and aim the ballista at me."
"I will stretch out my hand three times. If I am ready to stretch out my hand a fourth time, shoot me with a crossbow arrow."
How should an ordinary person restrain his desires? The best way is to let others strictly supervise him.
Ai Lan asked Kaka to point the ballista at him because he was afraid that his desire would expand without limit.
"Here we go, for the first time."
He stretched out his hand to fish into the puddle, and a strange prop appeared in his hand.
Behemoth's leg hair
What the hell, why does leg hair appear here?
Come again
The second time he reached into the puddle, an even stranger thing appeared in his hand.
"Doomsday Blade (Toy Version)"
???
After taking a closer look, it turned out to be a children's toy. I thought I had gotten something special.
Ai Lan took a deep breath and said, "For the last time."
Reach out for the third time!
A gold coin.
"Can't we get something good?" Ai Lan instinctively wanted to continue to reach out and fish in. Anyway, there is no limit to the number of times.
However, the tight bow string not far away quickly reminded him.
At this time, he could clearly feel that his desire was rapidly expanding, and his reason was desperately reminding him that it was time to stop.
"So be it!"
After some struggle, Kaka's ballista successfully helped him regain his sanity.
"Old sir, it's time for me to leave."
"What a great young man." The old man in gray robe looked at Ai Lan with admiration in his eyes, "It's time for me to leave."
"This spring water contains some power of time and space, which may be useful to you."
"Then, see you again by fate."
As soon as he finished speaking, the old man's figure disappeared in front of Ai Lan.
"The power of time and space?"
Ai Lan threw a reconnaissance technique at it, but nothing was revealed.
He thought for a while, then simply lowered his head and drank wildly in the puddle.
"The player absorbs some power of time and space."
"Perception attribute improvement: 15 → 16."
"Damn it, the attributes have been increased." Ai Lan's eyes changed when she looked at the spring water, "Drink it up!"
Gudu Gudu Gudu
He buried his head in the puddle and drank wildly. He held his stomach and drank all the water in it.
"The player absorbs some power of time and space."
"Intelligence attribute improvement: 12 → 13."
"2 points of attributes, this wave of blood profit!"
