After crawling over the giant crocodile's body, Bei Ling and Xiao Tan continued to move forward. Because they had walked this road before, they unconsciously accelerated their pace when they walked again. A few minutes later, the two passed the initial
A place where monsters are encountered.
After walking for a while, it suddenly became clear to the two of them that the gradually widening tunnel finally connected to a very large cave. There were groups of stalactites distributed on the floor and ceiling of the cave. Under the light, these stone crystals were colorful.
, with its various shapes, it is a wonder. Because the surrounding stone walls are rugged and interspersed with the stone groups, the full picture of this cave cannot be seen at a glance.
"Separately search... to see if there are any tunnels leading to other places." Sadling said.
Xiaotan nodded and pointed to his side: "Then I'll go over there." Then he walked away.
They both have lighting equipment, and the sound transmission effect in this cave is also good. As long as they don't encounter a fork in the road, they don't have to worry about getting separated. So Sadling didn't waste any more words and quickly walked in the other direction.
Unfortunately, Bei Ling's luck was not very good, and the road quickly ran out on the side she was walking on. After crossing a puddle of water, a relatively large pool appeared in front of her, the area of which was the same as the one she fell into before.
It is similar to the one you entered. However, the top of the cave here is closed, and the stone walls surrounding the pool on three sides also declare that this is a dead end.
She turned back all the way, and soon came to the place where she was separated from Xiaotan, and then she headed in the direction that Xiaotan had just gone. Not long after, she saw the light and Xiaotan's elongated figure behind a rock in front of her.
shadow.
Xiaotan also heard her approaching footsteps, turned around and poked her head out: "Did you find anything over there?"
"There is no way." Sadling replied, and then asked: "What about you? What are you standing there looking at?"
"I seem to have found a door." Xiao Tan replied.
"Oh?" As Bei Ling spoke, she came to Xiao Tan's side, and she also saw the so-called "door".
It was a three-dimensional octagonal sphere with a metallic surface and a volume larger than a refrigerator. It happened to be blocked in a place that looked like the entrance of a tunnel. The side of the device faced them. There was a piece of metal in the middle whose color was obviously different.
When you touch it with your hand, a game menu will appear in front of the player's eyes. At first glance, you can tell that this is obviously a very pure game setting and has nothing to do with the world view of the script.
"Is it a puzzle..." Sadling asked.
"You touch that place with your hand." Xiaotan pointed at the piece of metal with different colors and said.
Sadling glanced at him. Then she took a step forward and touched the place pointed by Xiaotan with her fingertips: "Oh~ Such a puzzle..." When she saw the topic that appeared in front of her, she immediately changed it.
He had a relaxed look on his face and a little bit of pride in his tone.
"Ah...that's the question." Xiaotan continued.
"Are you standing here stupidly trying to figure this out?" Sadling asked.
"Yes, but as soon as you come over and talk to me now, I will forget everything I thought about before..." Xiao Tan replied.
"The answer is seventy-five." Sadling said while using his fingers to draw the two Arabic numerals on the piece of metal.
The next second, the surface of the metal sphere instantly turned into the same color as this one. Then it slowly opened from the top like a blooming bud. The metal plates were folded and laid out on both sides of the tunnel and on the ground.
, unlocking the passage in front of the two of them.
Moreover, there was a piece of equipment hidden in the middle of the sphere, which was now displayed in front of them.
Xiao Tan exclaimed: "How can you calculate so quickly?"
"It's not a big deal." Sadling looked up at him: "The questions I usually play for fun are more difficult than this."
The puzzle just now is actually just a nine times nine Sudoku problem, and a lot of numbers have been given by default for this problem. It is a relatively simple difficulty, and the game menu does not require the player to put all the empty ones.
The grids are all filled. Players only need to solve the numbers at a few specific points and find the sum.
Even a third-grade elementary school student can solve this problem, but it may take a little more time without the help of paper, pen and other recording tools.
To put it bluntly, it is a puzzle that tests short-term memory, mental arithmetic and logical deduction abilities. It does not require additional associations or the like. This can be said to be the strongest point of Sad Spirit.
"Your usual pastime is so terrible... Are you a mathematician?" Xiao Tan said.
"I majored in liberal arts, okay." Beiling said, "Besides... where are there such young mathematicians? I just graduated in two months."
"Really... I always thought you were the type to be a science guru, I really didn't expect that." Xiao Tan muttered.
Sadling snorted: "I don't think you look like a medical student at all, you are as timid as a mouse."
Xiao Tan just smiled without any excuse. He walked forward, looked at the piece of equipment inside the metal body and said, "You can pick this item up, in case it is picked up and bound or something."
"At first glance, I can't use this. It's really picked up and bound. I will probably take it to the store." Beiling replied: "It's better you pick it up." She was right, because the one on the ground
The item looks like a pair of boxing gloves. Players who specialize in shooting will not be able to pull the trigger if they put this on, so there is no point in preparing it.
When Xiao Tan heard this, he went over and took the items in his hands.
[Name: Vending Machine Beater]
[Type: Weapon]
[Quality: Excellent]
[Attack power: Weaker]
[Attribute: None]
[Special effect: There is a 1% probability of displaying "The Perseverance of the Beater"]
[Equipment conditions: level 25 or above, fighting specialization c or general specialization c]
[Note: Have you ever had money swallowed by a vending machine? If so, you should know that a light tap or a few random hits are in vain. Only a sharp blow to the point can make that damn thing go away.
The machine works as usual.
ps: Yes, I once made an ogre vomit out his kidney.】
After Xiao Tan read it, he handed it to Bei Ling and asked her to take a look at the attributes, "Fortunately, it's not picked up and bound. This weapon is not suitable for me at all. Besides, I have to practice eight more levels before I can equip it."
"This pair of gloves is for players who are fast and specialize in boxing. It will definitely be very powerful." Sadling looked at the attributes of the item and suggested: "If you plan to take it to the auction house, the price can be set higher."
"Well... let's talk about it after the script is over." Xiaotan took the items again and put them in the bag.
Then they set off again, entered the unlocked intersection, and started walking along a new stone tunnel.
After walking a few steps, Bei Ling suddenly thought of something, and she asked: "Hey, by the way, you are not short of game coins anyway, why not give that equipment to the leader? It is equivalent to giving him six coins.
How many game coins are there?”
"Brother Jue definitely doesn't want it." Xiaotan said without turning around: "Whether in reality or in the game, he will never accept money given to him directly or indirectly."
"Ah~men's twisted self-esteem..." Sad Spirit said in a long tone.
"You can't say that, it's not just a matter of who's in love with who's self-esteem." Xiaotan seriously denied Beiling's words: "If two friends whose economic conditions are quite different, if they want to maintain their friendship, the most important bottom line is not to
There are frequent and unequal exchanges regarding money. Otherwise, as time goes by, there will not even be basic trust and equal conversations between the two."
Sadling looked at him and was silent for a few seconds, then smiled and said: "Listening to the tone of someone like you...a rich second generation, right?"
"Uh..." Xiao Tan hesitated for a moment before replying: "That's right..."
"That's right. It's not a shameful thing. Are you afraid of admitting that your family is rich?" Beiling said.
Xiao Tan does have his worries. Since childhood, in addition to the problem he just mentioned about friends, another problem that troubles him is...the girlfriends he dated before either came here for money or knew that his family had
His attitude began to change after he made money. But Xiaotan is the kind of person who still feels that the other person has a conscience and troubles after being deceived. If it weren't for two bad friends, Feng Bujue and Master Bao, who were secretly protecting him
, these three words Wang Tanzhi are almost equated with being taken advantage of.
Xiaotan turned his head and wanted to explain: "Haha...it's actually not bad, not as bad as you thought..." He was interrupted before he could finish his words.
"Don't worry, don't worry." Bei Ling stood on tiptoes like a pet dog and reached out to pat Xiao Tan's head: "Even if I know your family is super rich, I won't change my attitude towards you." There was a look in her eyes.
His shaky nature was fully exposed: "Because my family must be richer than yours, so in my eyes, you are just a poor person."
"What kind of self-confidence is this... Is your father the richest man in the world?" Xiao Tan asked, but he didn't say it out loud. He just replied: "Well... this is the first time in my life that I have been called poor. I don't know.
Why does it feel so good..."
"This is mean." Sadling immediately answered. The reason why her words were not blocked may be that the system recognized this view...
As the two of them were chatting, a crossroads appeared in the front section of the tunnel.
The three passages with completely different directions looked featureless from the intersection, and there were no signboards or anything like that to indicate the way forward.
"Which way?" Sadling asked.
"Eh? This should be my line, right?" Xiaotan replied: "Isn't it always you who makes the decision?"
"It's up to you to make a guess for such a clueless choice." Sadling replied.
If Feng Bujue were here, he would make the same decision, because anyone who has been in contact with Xiao Tan for a while will find that this guy has a good character...
"Well...then..." Xiao Tan looked around with a miner's hat on his head, and finally said: "Let's go in the middle."
