Limited by his own talent, Professor Lan's own strength could not improve, but he helped the entire human race improve in another way.
Before Professor Lan released the first version of the guide, human players, even those with S-level talents, found it difficult to achieve high exploration progress in the first few levels.
According to incomplete statistics,
After Professor Lan released the first version of the strategy guide, the average exploration progress per person increased by 5%-20%!
His eternal tower only has the first nine floors, and he dedicated his entire life of a hundred years to these nine floors.
For a hundred years, nearly 40,000 days and nights, he studied the first nine levels, searching for better strategies to clear them, communicating and summarizing with strong players from different professions, and sharing his findings with others free of charge.
It is precisely because of Professor Lan's outstanding contributions that he is a lifetime honorary professor in the vast majority of universities.
A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.
Ye Bai had once compared them using his Eye of Insight.
The strategy guide published by Professor Lan is not much different from the best route given by the Eye of Insight, and is even more suitable for students with weaker abilities.
Professor Lan possesses both talent and hard work, which is why he has achieved what he has today.
"He is a legendary figure."
"Legend? Brother Bai, legend is not enough to describe Elder Lan!"
Feng Dong clearly admired Professor Lan greatly, addressing him as "Old Lan".
"Come on, you'll understand once you've taken Professor Lan's class."
...
Summer camp, Area C, Teachers' Office.
Professor Lan is organizing today's course materials, a habit he has cultivated over many years.
Take every lesson seriously and be responsible for every student.
There's not much he can do, so he'll just do his best in everything.
Professor Lan's assistant is a recent graduate student who specializes in developing strategies for the Eternal Tower and learns from Professor Lan.
"Old Lan, floors 3 through 6 have all been reset. Shall we change the topic today?"
Professor Lan nodded steadily.
Indeed, outdated strategies are better left untold.
Today, I'll share some basic information about the Eternal Tower with you all.
"Eternal Core City, Trading Secret Realm, Exclusive Space..."
Under Professor Lan's direction, the assistant selected this part of the courseware for Professor Lan to review one last time.
"You wrote a good courseware for 'Trading Secrets'."
Professor Lan read through the pages, then suddenly stopped on a particular page.
"Huh?"
He let out a soft sound of surprise, and picked up a magnifying glass from the side, as if he wanted to take a closer look.
"Old Lan, is something wrong?"
The assistant leaned forward and saw the contents of this page.
"This stone is the subject of some interesting news from the Wanwuge Auction House recently."
Someone listed an ordinary stone for 1 million gold coins for consignment, which I found interesting, so I included it in the course materials.
The assistant, somewhat nervous, tentatively asked, "Mr. Lan, if you're not satisfied, shall I delete this page?"
"strangeness..."
Professor Lan held the magnifying glass steadily, his eyes narrowed to slits, and he kept muttering strange things.
"Elder Lan, what's strange?"
Professor Lan examined it for a few more minutes before finally putting the magnifying glass aside, his expression grave.
"I'm pretty sure this stone came from the beginner dungeon."
In the passage after you've passed the first level, on the left side of the ground, is the sixth stone from the left.
Professor Lan has studied the beginner dungeon for countless years and is extremely familiar with every single stone inside!
"So what?"
The assistant was even more confused. Even if it was a stone from the beginner dungeon, it was still a stone!
"Look closely at the front of the stone; there are signs of wear. It seems some kind of pattern was drawn on the stone wall..."
Professor Lan took out a tablet, logged into the auction house of Wanwu Pavilion, and checked the price of the stone, which was worth millions.
"Consignment period..."
Professor Lan glanced at it, his expression suddenly changed, but he quickly returned to normal.
He said casually,
"It's probably a prank. Trying to sell something like this for 1 million gold coins is just wishful thinking."
Professor Lan feigned composure and said seriously,
"Remove it from the course materials, don't waste everyone's time."
"Okay, Mr. Lan."
The assistant wanted to say something more, but Professor Lan dismissed him.
"You go to the classroom to take attendance first, and I'll come over after I've checked the courseware."
After the assistant left, Professor Lan could no longer control the trembling in his body. He fell backward and slumped into the chair, his heart pounding.
"The stones from the beginner dungeon are inexplicably worn down..."
"After clearing the beginner dungeon at SSS rank, you will be rewarded with a Trading Realm Pass..."
"The consignment period will begin shortly after Shura is cleared..."
When all the clues were laid out before Professor Lan, he could only think of one answer:
"The stone is consigned by Shura and is also an important item for unlocking the hidden levels in the beginner dungeon."
After realizing this, Professor Lan nearly suffered a cardiac arrest!
This matter involves the Shura, the strongest seed of the human race, and Professor Lan cannot afford to be careless!
He took a few deep breaths, picked up his phone from the table, and dialed a number.
"Get Xue Meng."
Xue Meng's voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Hello, Elder Lan. I'm about to head to the Abyss Plane. Let's get straight to the point."
"Okay, I'll tell you, you listen."
Professor Lan was extremely serious.
"Remove item [DOIWM146] from the Wanwuge Auction House."
"It has been removed from the shelves."
"Delete all shopping records of the consignment owner."
"No shopping records found".
"Replace the sales representative of Wanwuge who is in contact with this person, and set this person's confidentiality level to SSS."
"Making changes...I don't have permission to proceed!"
"Damn it, Elder Lan, who exactly is this person you found?"
At this point, Xue Meng realized that something was wrong!
"You don't need to worry about it."
Professor Lan reviewed the details in his mind to make sure he hadn't missed anything.
He slowly uttered his last request.
"Have Lord Shadow Nine come here and seal away my memories from this morning. It has to be quick."
Xue Meng:...
hiss--
If Xue Meng still doesn't understand after all this, then he doesn't deserve to have two supreme experts as his father.
Something terrible has happened.
Professor Lan, we've found Shura's alt account in the Trading Secret Realm!
