Chapter 105 Gold-rimmed Glasses: Gentle and Refined
Back on the ship, Shen Dixin enthusiastically accepted Spider Toast's friend request.
She hadn't forgotten the thank-you gift this guy mentioned. A player with S-level talent would surely have some good stuff, right?
If someone deliberately adds you as a friend just for some ordinary things, Shen Dixin is too lazy to continue dealing with her. Who are they trying to fool?
However, Spider Toast was very perceptive. Without saying a word, she immediately gave Shen Dixin something she couldn't refuse.
【Item Name: Observation Lens】
Item Quality: Purple
【Durability: 200/200】
[Equipment Attributes: None]
[Equipment Effects: Lightweight, Insightful (Can obtain enemy health and stamina data; targets with more than twice the user's attributes may be detected, targets with more than three times the user's attributes will definitely fail)]
[Item Description: Designed specifically for a certain type of peculiar creature that can suddenly transform into something extraordinary. Don't let yourself be caught off guard!]
Both the observation lens and the insight lens are monocles, one on the left and one on the right, forming a perfect pair.
As soon as I put the cleansing pills together after receiving them, I received a system notification.
[Should we synthesize the [Observation Lens] and [Insight Lens]?]
Yes, Spider Toast actually delivered the other half of the synthesizable equipment to her.
If she knew about this, she would probably regret it to the core, and at the very least, she would demand a settlement from Shen Dixin.
What's amusing is that Shen Dixin always keeps the "Don't show equipment appearance" option enabled, meaning Spider Toast has no idea that her other half is in her possession.
Or rather, even if she knew, she might not have been aware that there were items that could be crafted.
In short, she was a great help!
When you drink water, don't forget the well-digger; put on a mask and be polite to the spider toast.
Even if I don't take advantage of this bargain, the fact that it's a special purple-quality item shows that she genuinely wants to befriend me, and who knows, I might be able to get even more from her in the future.
Spider Toast was puzzled by their sudden enthusiasm, but after failing to get the answer, she could only assume that the two of them got along well.
We've at least gotten close to achieving our goal of cleansing her heart; the equipment we sent out today will eventually be recouped from her!
Spider Toast felt no guilt whatsoever while coaxing Shen Dixin.
Putting aside the fact that she deceived so many people by using a fake identity, which is enough to show her weak sense of morality, her talent can only be copied, not stolen.
The other side won't lose anything, so why are they feeling guilty? She even felt that she was doing a good deed for society, and that not getting anything good was a loss for the channel, without any internal conflict.
Both harbored their own ulterior motives, yet appeared outwardly cheerful and congenial.
*
Should we synthesize it now?
Shen Dixin hesitated. Her Insight Lens had only consumed 21 points of durability so far. Crafting new equipment would refresh the durability, which seemed like a bit of a loss.
She then thought, "It's only lost 21 durability points after all this time. How long will it take to get it down to a point where it's not a loss? It would be crazy not to use such good equipment."
--yes.
She decisively chose to synthesize it, and what ended up in Shen Dixing's hands was a complete pair of gold-rimmed glasses.
She perfectly embodied a gentle and refined demeanor, which contrasted sharply with her ruthless and unpredictable nature.
Every time Shen Dixin puts on that serene and peaceful face, but his fighting style is wild and unrestrained, it's time for Tao Ling to cover her face and scream silently.
It's a pity that the equipment appearance cannot be displayed separately, otherwise it would be a great accessory.
The synthesized equipment is also purple, with its durability increased to 800 points. It not only has the function of two lenses, but can also observe the enemy's combat status, such as berserk mode.
Chen Dixin put it on and went to see Lu Mingang.
[Level 9 player: Constitution 34, Strength 23, Agility 13, Health (188/440), Stamina (137/440)]
Hmm, Lu Mingang's attributes have also improved after he got all the accessories.
Although he made it to the fifth round and received four rewards, he didn't get anything good because he only flew close to the ground each time. The only valuable thing he got was a basket of purple ingredients.
Now his cooking skills have improved significantly; at least he can make purple dishes without any mishaps, and he can even save on ingredients occasionally.
Shen Dixin didn't expect that Lu Mingang could learn to this level on his own before she even found him a teacher. It seems that their hidden talents were discovered at sea.
Lu Mingang, who was being scrutinized, was restless at this moment. He noticed Shen Dixin's gaze as soon as she moved over, but due to some indescribable thoughts, he kept his head down and continued to prepare the dishes in his hands.
Her gaze seemed glued to him, and Lu Mingang's hand trembled as he tossed the wok, nearly dropping the dish.
Why is Dixin staring at him like that? Has something happened?
Lu Mingang frantically thought, until the food prepared by the little elves was used up, oh, he forgot to give them instructions.
The blushing woman was finally pulled back from her reverie. She stood up and waited for the strange tide to begin.
Irregular waves rippled across the calm sea, as if something was stirring in the water, but it was barely noticeable unless you looked closely, thanks to the cover of the waves.
Shen Dixin frowned. Something was wrong. Judging from the sky, the sea monsters should be starting to move.
It wasn't until she noticed that a piece of the plank beside her feet was wet that she realized the float was about 30 centimeters above the sea, and the slight swaying wouldn't wet it.
Instinctively, it flew out of the thorns to probe, and ended up pinning down a strange sea monster it had never seen before.
It was a basilisk! And the feedback from the lens included additional status information.
[Invisibility: Makes the enemy difficult to detect with the naked eye. Remaining time: 2 seconds.]
Soon, the basilisk's invisibility effect disappeared, and its finned, snake-like form gradually became visible.
Besides being able to turn invisible, the basilisk's base stats are even lower than the fish monster's, making it easy to deal with.
This means that individual sea monsters have begun to possess skills, and who knows, they might all have unique abilities later on!
Two weeks ago, the sea monster's level gradually caught up with Shen Dixing's and even showed a trend of surpassing him. Now, all the sea serpents in sight are level 12.
If she was already like this, the level suppression of other players would obviously be even more severe. However, every cloud has a silver lining, and the experience gained from killing opponents of higher levels was quite substantial, which made Chen Dixin very happy!
She easily dodged the basilisk's attack, feeling no strong sense of danger; her own power gave her an unparalleled sense of security.
"When soldiers come, we'll block them; when water comes, we'll dam it," the woman said with a confident smile under the warm orange light.
[Congratulations on reaching level 11! You are rewarded with 2 free attribute points!]
Without any notification, the genie came out on its own asking for attribute points, so eager that one might suspect it was taking a cut.
However, as soon as it poked its head out, it made eye contact with the sea monster, which scared it out of its wits. It lost its grip, fell off the flower bud, and quickly put itself back in.
It stayed inside the flower bud for two whole hours before finally emerging. As soon as it appeared, a tiny figure popped out from behind the lame shipwright who was banging and hammering on the ship's side, startling him so much that he screamed.
Lamp Spirit: !!!
Shen Dixin rushed over and picked up the dazed lamp spirit, which then calmed down and clung to Shen Dixin's body.
This caused Lu Mingang to glance at it frequently, but fortunately his gaze was too gentle and familiar, so the lamp spirit didn't notice it at all, otherwise it would have gotten goosebumps again.
Ever since the magic lamp was gone, this guy has become increasingly timid. He's easily frightened by anything, and he's afraid he might accidentally kill himself.
After finally calming down, the lamp spirit returned to normal operation, and I'm confident that the rest can be completed in one day.
