In the past, when Ren Suo was playing one-star, two-star, and three-star games, he would always encounter awakened people of these levels and could successfully obtain the keys to open the treasure chests.
But ever since Ren Suo started playing the four-star game, it has been very difficult for him to get the key to open the treasure chest, and most of the keys come from his wife or Bai Ji.
When Ren Suo played the five-star game, the treasure chest was basically left there untouched - he really couldn't find the key.
If you want to synthesize a five-star key, you need five four-star keys, or twenty three-star keys, or sixty two-star keys... In fact, it is not difficult. After all, Ren Suo is in Tianlian Academy, and he will earn some keys more or less. It's just that no one knows when he can get them all.
In comparison, it might be faster to wait for Dong Chengling to be promoted to the fifth level before getting her key.
You Jian's five-star key was a pure surprise, so Ren Suo naturally used it to open the treasure chest immediately.
There were two five-star treasure chests, and Ren Suo couldn't tell which was which, so he randomly picked one and opened it—
"You consume the 'Five-Star Soul Key' to open this treasure chest."
"You gain the skill 'Sacred Hero Transformation'."
"The key effect is activated, and you obtain the item 'Blank Hero's Soul'."
Ren Suo was stunned for a moment.
If he remembered correctly, he had only completed two five-star games, one was "Hand of Fate" and the other was "Upside Down".
It seems that neither of these two games has anything to do with heroes, so why do they only produce things related to heroes?
Aren’t the rewards of the treasure chest related to the game content?
However, Ren Suo quickly overlooked this detail and realized something else.
After a year, really a year, Ren Suo finally triggered the key effect again and drew an extra reward!
Actually, this is quite normal. After all, the extra chance of a five-star key is 40%. The one a year ago was purely a burst of luck, but Ren Suo couldn't help but feel moved - this man whose edges were smoothed by life was finally full of hope for the future again.
"Sacred Hero Transformation"
"Rank: Five-star ability, prerequisite: primate species."
"Effect: After activation, you will transform into a Holy Warrior, instantly recover from all injuries, and summon the Assault Breastplate, True Flame Holy Sword, Guardian Greaves, and Black King Staff. The duration is 60 seconds, and the cooldown period is 24 hours."
"Note: 'Punch the stinky Taoist priests of Xuan Country, kick the ugly angels of Federation, I am the only one in heaven and earth' - this skill seems to have such a vision."
…
"Blank Hero's Soul"
"Rank: Five-star item, prerequisite: None."
"Equipment effect: After equipping the equipment, the player gains the 'Brave Aura', which can grant all friendly units within a 100-meter radius 'enhanced morale', 'fight to the death' and other spiritual effects, and increase the overall quality of the whole team by 10%, and the critical hit rate by 25%."
"Effect: After using it on any creature, the opponent will gain the 'Brave Aura'. This item disappears after use."
"Note: A fully mature hero's soul, but it's empty inside."
Ren Suo's eyes lit up.
good.
Worthy of being the rewards from a five-star treasure chest, these two ability items are very practical. Not only can "Sacred Warrior Transformation" serve as a life-saving skill to instantly recover from injuries, but it can also summon some awesome items to aid in battle. It is truly an essential skill for killing people and setting fires and making a desperate counterattack.
[Blank Brave Soul] is even more powerful, or in other words, all aura skills are useful. This is Ren Suo's first aura skill.
Moreover, it can be directly consumed to grant the "Brave Aura" to anyone.
Ren Suo thought about it and decided what to do with the "Blank Brave Soul": to give it to Master Mu.
Among them, Qiao Muyi is the only combat monk who faces the criminals head-on, kills the evil with her own hands, and fights on the front line. Naturally, props that enhance combat power will be given to her first.
Moreover, she also leads the monks of the Countermeasures Bureau. The "Halo of Bravery", which greatly enhances the group's combat effectiveness, can play its role most efficiently in Qiao Muyi's hands.
In fact, items like the "Brave Halo" can really play the greatest role in the hands of some monks who fight all year round, such as You Jian, whose achievements record is as long as 35 pages...
But between You Jian and Qiao Muyi, Ren Suo of course chose his wife!
However, the gift of the "Halo of Bravery" to Qiao Muyi will naturally be done after completing "The Disaster of Tomorrow". After all, Ren Suo's main purpose of opening the box now is to further enhance the fighting power of these naughty kids.
Ren Suo paused and looked at another shining key in the content storage library.
He is hesitating.
He originally wanted to use the "Key of Light" when it was more needed - such as the Nine-Star Treasure Chest.
But Ren Suo felt that now was the time when he needed it.
The rewards for "Tomorrow's Disaster" are too generous and the difficulty is too high. The second level requires Ren Suo to use "Clear Spring Flowing Sound", and the third level is probably not much better.
If you can increase your combat power by one point, you will have a better chance of winning.
Props are like money. If you don’t use them when you need them, they are meaningless!
Ren Suo made up his mind and looked at the two six-star treasure chests!
I'm so lucky today, let's go for it again!
"You consume the 'Key of Light' to open this treasure chest."
"You obtain the item 'Eye of Truth'."
"The key effect is activated. You can choose one of the following three routes to strengthen: [Blessing], [Strong], [Daily]"
Ren Suo hesitated for a moment. He couldn't see the information of the new item yet. He could only judge from the name that this item was from the game "Gate of Truth" and was most likely an auxiliary item.
Of the three routes, [Strong] is the easiest to understand, mostly enhancing the original effect of the item;
[Blessing] looks like applying a buff;
The only thing I don’t quite understand is [Daily Life], what does it mean?
However, as a player who is diligent in thinking, Ren Suo equipped himself with the "Seeker's Ornament" and understood the word "daily" from a different perspective: Among the props and abilities he currently possesses, which ones can be called the "daily" route?
Soon, several terms popped up in Ren Suo's mind: "Echo of Desire", "Seeker's Ornament", "Listening Headphones"... "Night Moon Warrior"...
Select [Daily]!
"Enhancement successful."
"Eye of Truth"
"Rank: Six-star item, prerequisite: None."
"Effect: Players can use the Eye of Truth to scout any place. The target location must meet three conditions: ① It is in the plane where the Gate of Truth is located; ② The player is directly or indirectly in the causal place; ③ There is a unique marker."
"Additional effect: Everyday things: Players can materialize this item without occupying the item slot. After equipping it again, the materialized item will automatically disappear from reality."
"Note: You stand on the bridge to enjoy the scenery, and the people who enjoy the scenery are watching you from upstairs."
Ren Suo immediately chose to materialize, and then a small transparent sheet fell in front of him.
The sheet is attached with a string and can be worn around the neck or around the wrist. There is a black eye pattern painted on the sheet, which looks ordinary, but if you stare at it for a long time... you can't help but blink.
He didn't feel at all that this was an extraordinary item, but when Ren Suo activated it with his spiritual energy, a dark area suddenly appeared in his field of vision.
It wasn't that his eyes were black, but that Ren Suo had an extra field of vision, equivalent to an external monitor that hadn't yet been projected.
Subconsciously, a target emerged in Ren Suo's mind: "Mom and Dad."
Then the dark area suddenly lit up, and a familiar living room appeared in front of Ren Suo.
It was midnight in New York, but it was 12 noon in Xuan Country, so Ren Suo could see his parents sitting at the large table eating as usual.
I'll see if my parents are eating well... taking out?!
Ren Suo curled his lips and picked up his phone to make a call.
He saw his mother pick up the phone, and a smile first appeared on her face, and then quickly turned into a disgusted expression: "I'm not buying a house, I'm not short of money, and I don't need insurance. Thank you."
Ren Suo was speechless: "You clearly knew that it was me who called you."
"You know? How do you know? Am I your mother or are you my mother?" Mom sneered: "Are you short of money?"
Ren Suo was both amused and confused: "Mom, my sister is with me."
"What does your sister's wealth have to do with you? I tell you, don't always ask Xingmei for money. I don't have the kind of son who lives off his sister," the mother said seriously, "Even if Xingmei is willing to indulge you, think about it. If you live a life of having everything you want, living in a big house and wasting your life every day, you will eventually degenerate into a useless person wearing pajamas all day..."
Ren Suo: “Isn’t that great?”
For some reason, the image described by his mother always made Ren Suo feel a little familiar...
My mother choked: "But I will look down on you! What do you think, dear?"
Father Ren hesitated for a moment and said, "I will look down on him from the perspective of a people's teacher."
Walking slowly and talking.
"Anyway, don't be so extravagant. As a man, you must have some money of your own. It's embarrassing to ask your sister for money all the time. Don't ask Xingmei for it if you want us - I mean small change."
My mother muttered, "Even if you don't mind being looked down upon by Xingmei, we do mind!"
Ren Suo: "You make it sound like my sister is an outsider..."
"When the time comes, you and Xingmei will form a small family, and you will all be outsiders." Mom snorted and said, "We can't interfere in your affairs, but I am very relieved about Xingmei. I believe she can become an independent woman."
"What about me?"
My mother said unhappily, "I don't think you can even be a good househusband."
Ren Suo said, "By the way, what are you having for lunch?"
My mother said in a very natural tone: "Haidilao takeout."
Ren Suo: “…Why?”
The mother showed an expression that said, "Is this child stupid?" "Because it's delicious, and I suddenly wanted to eat Haidilao at noon today but didn't want to queue up."
Ren Suo: "Didn't you dislike eating takeout before?"
Mom: "Before, we were poor and cooked for ourselves to save money. If life wasn't forced, who would want to cook?"
Ren Suo: "Cheng Ling likes to cook, and she cooks better than you."
My mother was choked: "Okay, stop showing off. I know you have a rich girlfriend, a girlfriend who is good at cooking, a girlfriend with a good background, and a girlfriend who is powerful. You are awesome and you are the king of Lianjiang gigolos."
"Now that Xingmei is willing to support you, the dowry and betrothal money we prepared for you are of no use, so we are planning to spend some money to improve our daily lives. This is incomparable to traveling around the world. Master Ren Suo, what do you think?"
Ren Suo curled his lips: "No problem, but didn't you just say that you don't want me to be raised by my sister?"
"Ideals are sexy, but reality is cruel." My mother said faintly, "People always have to bow to life. I have made preparations for the worst."
Ren Suo was used to being teased by his mother, so he smiled and said, "Okay, okay, okay. Then spend your money while you can still move. My sister and I will support you. I don't have anything to do, so I'll hang up first."
My mother was silent for a moment, then said, "You have to treat them well. If they complain to me, I will stand by them unconditionally."
"I won't let them suffer any more injustices." Ren Suo said seriously: "I promise."
"Don't be so hard on yourself." Mom said softly.
Ren Suo's heart softened, and then he heard his mother continue to say: "If you can't live off your parents, you can just come back and rely on them. Although we may mind, we will never leave you alone."
Ren Suo curled his lips: "Can't I be self-reliant?"
Mom looked at Ren's dad: "Do you have anything to say?"
Father Ren thought for a moment, took the phone and said, "Son, your mother has said everything I want to say, so I will ask a question."
"You are traveling around the world now. Besides Xiaojiu, is Lin Xianyu also with you?"
Ren Suo was slightly stunned: "Yeah, what's wrong?"
"Nothing." Father Ren hung up the phone and let out a breath.
Ren's mother asked, "Why are you asking that?"
Ren's father replied: "I think I still have a chance to turn the tables."
…
…
By visiting his hometown, Ren Suo basically understood how to use the "Eye of Truth".
Condition ① is very simple, condition ② means that the place Ren Suo wants to visit must be one he has been to or his relatives and friends have been to, and condition ③ means that a unique mark is needed.
If you are looking for someone, you can just use "where XXX is", but if you are looking for a certain place, you need to add articles, such as "where XX has been before", "X city, X district, X road".
Overall, it is quite practical. And after it is materialized, it does not take up space in the prop column. Ren Suo can wrap it around his wrist as an ornament.
Ren Suo's heart moved, and the sleeping Ren Xingmei and Gu Yueyan appeared in his field of vision.
Although the room was dark, all the details were clearly visible in the "Eye of Truth".
Ren Suo could clearly see that Gu Yueyan was sleeping upright under the quilt, while Ren Xingmei liked to sleep on her side. Her hair was loose but not messy, and her face was calm but lively. It was a pleasing picture of a beautiful girl sleeping.
But for some reason, they put a few pillows in the middle, dividing the big bed into two areas that have nothing to do with each other.
Ren Suo was a little surprised, because it was not because they were short of money. The reason they chose a king-size bed room was that they didn't mind sleeping together.
Were Xingmei and Yueyan so reluctant to sleep in the same bed from the beginning? Then why didn't they choose a twin room?
Ren Suo was somewhat puzzled, so he changed his focus and started observing Lin Xianyu and Xiao Jiu's room.
These two were much more normal: Lin Xianyu slapped Xiaojiu on the face, and Xiaojiu put both of her little feet on Lin Xianyu, and the two of them slept together with drooling.
If it wasn’t for the inability to take a photo, Ren Suo really wanted to post it on WeChat Moments.
After admiring this sleeping scene that looked like Godzilla fighting Ultraman for a while, Ren Suo shifted his target again and observed Dong Chengling and Qiao Muyi's rooms.
Then, Ren Suo's expression froze.
"……?"
