The "Jade Cauldron", although not very favored by Li Changzhou and his two companions, is an S-tier artifact.
The reason it doesn't shine now is entirely due to the lack of materials and elixir recipes, as well as a lack of ti to research it—Yang Qinglan would only take it out to play with it when she had so free ti from training.
"By the way," Li Changzhou rembered there was another item to sell, "Officer Zheng, do you guys like cha?"
"cha?"
This was real technology, complete with a whole system, highly valued by the nation, with three people arriving whose ranks were obviously very high.
Luckily, the nation had an item called "CD Disc" that could imprint mories and knowledge, otherwise, Li Changzhou would have to write it all down himself.
After the technicians confird there were no issues, a high-ranking military officer asked Li Changzhou directly, "What do you need?"
"A thod to et up in the instance, preferably a ready-made artifact, give that artifact," Li Changzhou had already decided, nothing was more important than the three of them eting up quickly.
The event at Monroe Park in 1880 doesn't need a second occurrence.
After so discussion, the other party took out three artifacts they thought matched the value of cha technology and let Li Changzhou choose.
"Internal Map."
You can see the location of your teammates (players who entered the instance together), as well as a terrain map within a hundred ters around each teammate.
The benefit of this artifact is that you can see where the little radishes and butterflies were hiding, and if more teammates were to join in the future, it would also enable quick assembly.
It can also be used for caution.
"How much for this one?" Turquoise Pool asked.
"This one is not for sale, only for trade," ca the reply.
Many artifacts and skills, no matter how much Ga Coin you have, can't be bought; they also require sufficient strength and luck.
The second artifact, "Green Aphid."
When you apply the perfu produced by the green aphid on a teammate—or enemy—no matter how far, the green aphid will definitely fly towards its own perfu.
The benefit is that it allows you to track enemies but lacks a warning function.
The last artifact is "Life and Death", the blood of a pair of Biyi Birds.
It can only be consud by two people, after drinking it, they can perceive each other's location, and also activate the "Life and Death" skill, teleporting instantly to each other's side.
Compared to the previous two, the last one can only be used by two people but adds "instant teleportation to each other's side."
All three artifacts have their pros and cons, making it hard to choose.
If possible, one would want to buy all of them.
"How about this one?" Li Changzhou picked up "Life and Death" and asked Yang Qinglan.
A bottle containing two drops of blood, indistinguishable who was chasing whom, twirling in the air.
"The 'Internal Map' and 'Green Aphid' are also useful," Yang Qinglan pretended to ponder.
"Let's go with this one." Li Changzhou, holding "Life and Death," asked Yang Qinglan.
Yang Qinglan lifted her eyelids, intending to continue the act, but upon seeing his face, she couldn't help but let out a little laugh.
"Alright, let's go with this one," she said.
"We'll take this one," Li Changzhou told the military official.
"Good, it's a pleasure doing business. If Mister Li has sothing to trade later, feel free to contact Zheng Qing."
"No problem."
Li Changzhou also needed the Special Warfare Bureau as a partner to deal with unnecessary artifacts and to purchase items he wanted but couldn't get his hands on.
"You guys seem wealthier than I am," Turquoise Pool said to Li Qianxia as she watched the two with playful eyes and a brimming smile.
"Just these few items, I've emptied out my entire inventory," Li Qianxia responded in a low voice.
Li Changzhou and Yang Qinglan drank "Life and Death."
With the trade finished, they checked over the Elixir Pills. The last area was for buying and selling intelligence information to the Special Warfare Bureau.
Turquoise Pool bought so intelligence.
So of the intelligence was of interest to Li Changzhou and the others too, but it wasn't worth spending Ga Coins on, so they didn't buy anything.
This shopping trip cost the three of them not a single penny, all relying on material trading.
For the Special Warfare Bureau, such players are more welco as Ga Coins co with every ga, but artifacts and materials are extrely rare and sotis unique.
After buying items, the next step was to choose the Visualization thod, which was also a reward for this mission.
"Taking us here, does that an you have already killed the Storm and got the artifact you wanted?" Turquoise Pool asked Zheng Qing.
"You can't hide anything from Miss Turquoise Pool," Zheng Qing smiled a bit sheepishly.
The reason she had brought them shopping was not only to express her gratitude but also to delay ti.
If the iron ball didn't contain that item, the mission wouldn't be considered complete, which ant that Li Changzhou and the others wouldn't be able to access the "Scripture of Mountains and Seas" and the "Search for the Divine Record."
It wasn't that the Special Warfare Bureau was stingy.
The Visualization techniques in the "Scripture of Mountains and Seas" and the "Search for the Divine Record" could only be cultivated by one player per page, and so were of S grade. If it weren't for the fact that most players in the national team had already tried and only the leftovers remained, plus the item taken by the storm was extrely important, the Special Warfare Bureau couldn't possibly offer it as a reward.
Zheng Qing led the four down another corridor—it seed to be all corridors here.
This corridor stretched out indefinitely, with rooms lining both sides as far as the eye could see.
Even with their strong constitutions, the sight was dizzying.
"The application has been approved, you can go in now. Follow your intuition, push open the doors, and the 'Scripture of Mountains and Seas' and the 'Search for the Divine Record' are inside," Zheng Qing said to the four of them.
"It looks like this is a storage item for storing other items," Turquoise Pool showed so interest.
"Can we open them to have a look?" Li Qianxia, with her hand on the nearest door, asked Zheng Qing.
"Yes, you can."
Li Qianxia exerted a little force and the door opened; she leaned in for a closer look, the room was utterly empty.
As soon as the door closed, the nurous doors along the corridor, enough to make one's head spin, suddenly began to swap places.
If a thief stood here, they would certainly despair, as the situation before them rendered brute-force guessing impossible.
The four walked on until they were surrounded by an endless expanse of doors, when a sudden feeling erged: push open a door on the right, and what they wanted would be inside.
The four exchanged glances; Li Changzhou stepped forward and pushed the door open.
Inside the stone room, there was a half-human-high pedestal with a book resting on it—it was the "Scripture of Mountains and Seas."
Plain and ordinary, it looked no different from an antique.
The four went inside, and the door behind them closed on its own.
"You guys choose first," Turquoise Pool stepped aside, crossing her arms and smiling.
Her figure was graceful, her deanor noble and elegant; standing there, she resembled a beautiful noblewoman greeting them.
"Are you curious about which Visualization we'll choose?" Yang Qinglan asked.
If Turquoise Pool was the untouchable, beautiful noblewoman, then Yang Qinglan was the fair, aloof, and mysterious fairy.
"Even politeness can be suspected," Turquoise Pool said with a self-pitying shake of her head, yet she stayed put.
"You two are so troubleso, let's just look together! Wouldn't it be better if we all knew what the others are learning?" Li Qianxia, linking arms with the other two, walked towards the "Scripture of Mountains and Seas."
Li Changzhou, forgotten, followed on his own.
The table of contents already had many gaps, like all the good seats in a movie theater taken.
What was left was either obviously subpar, or so impressive that one couldn't help but wonder, "Am I worthy?"
They could watch simultaneously; whatever one could learn would be highlighted for them within the catalog.
"Indeed, it's not the sa 'Scripture of Mountains and Seas' as in the outside world," Yang Qinglan said, her slender fingers pinching the corner of the catalog, "there are many monsters and deities inside that aren't ntioned at all in the original."
"Like the Kunpeng?" Li Changzhou rembered this.
"Yes," Yang Qinglan nodded lightly, "but here, the Kun is listed as one creature, and the Peng as another... both leftovers that no one has mastered?"
"It's kind of strange," Li Changzhou mused.
"I can study 'Roc'!" Li Qianxia suddenly exclaid.
Li Changzhou, Yang Qinglan, and Turquoise Pool all turned their attention to her.
With Zhuangzi's "Carefree Travel," the na of Kunpeng was far more famous than other mythical creatures and divine beasts.
Li Qianxia looked towards her brother; Li Changzhou gave a slight nod, and with an excited hand, she turned to the page of the 'Roc.'
On the edge of that page, it read:
[Wings like clouds, form like mountains; in the extres of speed, the Roc is supre.]
Beside the text was a painting:
A golden bird soared above the vast sea of clouds, like a massive island. rely looking at it conveyed a sense of looking down upon the world, powerful and carefree as it travelled far and wide.
"I like this one, I like this one! I'm choosing this one!" Without waiting for a discussion, Li Qianxia had already placed her hand upon it.
After two seconds, she looked pitifully at Li Changzhou, "Brother, I know why 'Roc' was left over—it needs soone with a blood connection to learn 'Giant Kun'."
The Roc and the Giant Kun, two parts of a whole.
