As soon as he got the backpack, Jiang Yuan took out the food inside and started eating like crazy.
Ning Yanlan simply sat quietly opposite him, watching him devour his food. After a while, she finally spoke, "You're the biggest eater I've ever seen!"
Jiang Yuan was also at a loss for words. Could he say that he ate so much because he was too powerful in the fight?
“However, you are also the most righteous person I have ever met!” Ning Yanlan said with utmost seriousness.
"Can a sense of justice feed you?" Jiang Yuan was still eating. In fact, he had regretted it when he was facing life and death. He should have just left as if nothing had happened. Why did he have to get involved?
But that's just a thought. If Jiang Yuan were given another choice, he would still choose to save people.
"No, but I can treat you to a meal anytime you want in the future!" Ning Yanlan is not a person who is good at joking, which is also related to her job, after all, she is used to being serious.
"By the way, what are you doing here? I've been wandering around for ages and haven't seen a single person!" Jiang Yuan asked, puzzled.
"The department had important documents left here, and I was in charge of keeping them safe, so I came back all by myself!" Ning Yanlan said calmly, as if this was what she should do, even if it cost her her life.
"Just you alone? You're incredibly bold!" Jiang Yuan was speechless.
“Because it was a classified document, no one else in the department knew about it, so only I could come back!” Ning Yanlan’s expression showed a hint of helplessness. “Actually, I didn’t know I would encounter such a monster. Everything was normal during the evacuation!”
Ning Yanlan sighed, "I never imagined the world would change so much in just a few days! Humanity has lost its former dominant position and can now only retreat to certain safe zones!"
"What exactly happened?" Jiang Yuan asked. He hadn't figured out what had happened from beginning to end, he only knew that the end of the world was coming.
"Well, how should I put it!" Ning Yanlan tore open a chocolate bar, popped it into her mouth, and said, "Three nights ago, the world underwent unprecedented changes. A golden gate appeared in the Eastern world, and a crystal monument appeared in the Western world!"
"The Golden Gate and the Crystal Monument completely replaced the sun and the moon. Under their transformation, the Earth became strange, with a constant stream of unknown creatures appearing, and the original life forms on Earth began to mutate, including humans!"
"None of this can be explained by science, or rather, by current technology! Therefore, almost everyone chooses to adapt to this environment in order to survive!"
"Adapting to the environment is simple: just become stronger and stronger!"
After saying that, Ning Yanlan saw Jiang Yuan's puzzled look and smiled faintly, "There are many ways to become stronger. The simplest way is to absorb energy from the Golden Gate or the Crystal Monument to achieve the goal of self-growth. A slightly more difficult way is to slaughter all kinds of monsters or holy spirits and then plunder their holy spirit stones!"
"Then what is this?" Jiang Yuan had no intention of hiding the core information, nor was there any need to.
The core extracted from beneath the Firehound was a silver-white cube, which was now emitting a silver-white light.
"The core!" Ning Yanlan's eyes showed a hint of surprise, as if she hadn't expected Jiang Yuan to be able to obtain the core.
Ning Yanlan's surprised expression only lasted a moment before she began to speak: "The core is a gift that this world has given us. As long as a Holy Spirit is recognized by the world, there is a certain probability that the core will be dropped when it is killed!"
"A certain probability?" Jiang Yuan was taken aback; he had thought it was a 100% chance of falling.
"Yes, there are only three types of cores currently available: Black Iron Core, Mithril Core, and Radiant Gold Core! The higher the core level, the lower the drop rate. Of course, this also depends on the rank of the monsters you encounter!"
Ning Yanlan shook her head after speaking, and continued, "However, the drop rate of the core is extremely low. A military expert once conducted an experiment, and the overall drop rate is no higher than ten percent!"
Jiang Yuan's lips twitched. Did this mean he was incredibly lucky? What did it mean to get three core items in a row? Had he used up all his luck for a lifetime?
At this moment, the Heavenly Eye conveyed a message: "The Heavenly Eye Passive - Balance Messenger, under the divine decree, the probability of a positive outcome will not be less than 50%, and the probability of a negative outcome will not be more than 50%."
Jiang Yuan: "..."
He was stunned for a moment because he really didn't understand what this passive meant. What balancer?
"Give an example!"
"Positive Probability: When your probability of getting a core is less than 50%, the Balance Messenger will automatically increase the probability to 50%!"
"Negative probability: When there is a 99% chance that you will fall off a cliff and die, the balancer will automatically reduce the probability to 50%!"
Jiang Yuan couldn't believe what he was hearing. Was this really being forced into this situation? It was practically like having a father figure in his life!
