After six years in the apocalypse, Xi Xi tragically died at the hands of her aunt's family. Unexpectedly, she was reborn on the day the apocalypse began. Just as she was preparing to leverage h...
"Braji?" Chu Zhiqin murmured, seemingly unfamiliar with the name.
“Braghi is the god of poetry, wisdom, and eloquence,” Shaliman explained to Chu Zhiqin, her gaze slightly lowered, a hint of tenderness in her expression. “When I was little, my father often told me these Norse myths…”
Xi Xi glanced at Shaliman, then took the strings from Chu Zhiqin's hand and handed them to her: "You can keep this."
Sallyman stared at Xi Xi in astonishment. This was a legendary item, and she hurriedly declined, not daring to accept it.
"Take it, consider it your birthday present." Xi Xi's tone was very calm, as if she were talking about something insignificant.
“But…” Sallyman was still somewhat hesitant. Even considering her contributions to the mission, she felt that she was not worthy of being ranked first, let alone being entitled to such valuable legendary-level supplies.
Xi Xi's words made her regret mentioning her birthday.
Xi Xi glanced at the supplies in the treasure chest, then took out the amphibious component talisman and handed it to Shaliman, saying slowly, "Perfect, you can take this too."
Sallyman was even more taken aback. She quickly waved her hand in refusal, as the total value of the two items was clearly far too high.
“My car has carried amphibious vehicles before, so another one won’t be of any use. You can keep this one.” Xi Xi gestured to the irrigation ditch not far away. “This ditch happens to run east to west.”
Sallyman immediately understood what Xi Xi meant. She accepted the talisman with trembling hands, and for a moment she didn't know what to say.
"Alright, let's pack up and get going." With that, Xi Xi got into the car with the remaining supplies from the treasure chest.
Sallyman stared at the strings and talismans in her hands, then heard the sound of Xi Xi's RV starting up. She looked up and saw Xi Xi's vehicle drive straight into the canal, floating slowly on the waterway like a boat.
Is this what they call amphibious?!
Before Sallyman could even process what she was seeing, she quickly lit the talisman in her hand and urged the van to give chase.
"Did we take too much?" Chu Zhiqin was clearly a little guilty. After all, Xi Xi had already copied the supplies, and as a member of the same team, she felt uneasy.
“There are only six items in the top-tier treasure chest. That's two items each for the three of us, which is fair.” Xi Xi tidied up the new items on the table and said seriously, “The duplicated items were given by the Blessing of Fortune, so how can they be considered public property?”
Chu Zhiqin then realized what was happening and repeatedly agreed. She looked at the supplies in Xi Xi's hand and was surprised to find that they were not exactly the same as the contents of the treasure chest.
In fact, Xi Xi didn't know why, but when she opened the box to copy the supplies, she heard the message: "Cultural relics are unique items and cannot be copied. They will be replaced with cultural relics of equal value."
When she came to her senses, the original "Lyre of the Nordic Bragi" had changed and been replaced by this slightly mottled stone ornament.
[Item Description: A family heirloom stone sculpture of Yu Gong from the Celestial Empire. A group effect, Cultural Relic. Upon binding, the binder and all members of their party will receive .]
Xi Xi, who had initially disliked the style of the ornament, suddenly beamed with delight. "So it's the story of the Foolish Old Man Who Moved Mountains!" she exclaimed. "My apologies!"
As a Chinese, she naturally felt a deep sense of connection to the legacy of Chinese mythology and culture.
Xi Xi quickly opened her personal interface and took a look. Sure enough, under the "Cultural Heritage" section, the new cultural heritage with the Celestial Empire attribute had been loaded.
Xi Xi instantly understood the meaning of "binding".
Cultural heritage comes in many forms, such as that of China, Northern Europe, ancient Greece, ancient India, and Japan, as we know them today.
Each player can acquire numerous cultural relics, but each person can only bind to one type of cultural relic.
She speculated that this was similar to equipment of the same attribute in the original world game; collecting a certain number might allow one to achieve some special accomplishment!
Xi Xi's fighting spirit was instantly ignited; given such an information gap, a strong desire surged within her.
In that case, she'll have to diligently collect all the cultural relics of the Celestial Empire!
Chu Zhiqin didn't quite understand the intricacies of the matter, but she still remembered carefully keeping the fragment of the Hun Tian Ling (a magical ribbon) that Nezha had left over from his battle in the Heavenly Dynasty.
Upon hearing that Xi Xi wanted to collect them, Xi's mother took them out without hesitation.
Xi Xi hesitated slightly at first, but considering that the fragment of the Hun Tian Ling had a group effect, and that even if she possessed it, Ms. Chu would also benefit, she happily took the red silk from her mother's hand.
In just a few minutes, Xi Xi became an adventurer who possessed three cultural relics of the Celestial Empire!
Overjoyed, she carefully put away the talisman in her hand and then looked at the two game map chips on the table.
[The adventurer already possesses a game map. Consume 1 game map for leveling up?]
"Yes!" Xi Xi replied decisively.
The moment she finished speaking, the map on the central control screen, which had been static, suddenly began to flash with dazzling light particles, as if injected with a mysterious power.
The light particles flickered and jumped around, and then the pixel map slowly expanded outward at a visible speed, eventually forming a larger field of view than before.
Upgrading the map increases your field of view! Great value!
This feeling of sudden enlightenment thrilled Xi Xi.
Overjoyed, Xi Xi quickly reached out and picked up another copied game map chip that was placed to the side.
[The adventurer already possesses a game map. Consume 1 game map for leveling up?]
"Yes!" Xi Xi replied while keeping her eyes fixed on the game map.
However, the expected scene of the map expanding outwards did not appear; the pixel map remained calm, as if nothing had happened.
Hmm? Xi Xi was a little confused.
But at that moment, a white dot suddenly appeared in the water flow of the pixel map.
Xi Xi looked out the window, but strangely, the outside world was calm and there was no trace of anything.
Could it be…? Her eyes lit up instantly, and she quickly summoned the little white duck, ordering it to dive into the water.
As the little white duck leaped into the river, the green dot on the light screen map did not disappear, and Xi Xi could even clearly see the little white duck's swimming trajectory.
Xi Xi understood.
Great! It turns out this upgrade has improved map depth detection!
Previously, pixel maps were completely unable to display any creatures underground or at the bottom of rivers!
Now Xi Xi can relax again! With the automatic driving function on the central control screen, she can also check the surrounding cellar treasure chests at the same time, saving time and effort, which is the best of both worlds!
