Chapter 16 The Belated Newcomer Gift Pack
Before long, a soldier dressed in armor walked in from outside.
He looked to be about twenty-five or twenty-six years old. After entering, he first bowed in Guo Xin's direction before saying:
"Miss Gu, please come with me."
Seeing this, Gu Xinyan nodded to Guo Xin before following Mu Ke out of the tent.
At this moment, Guo Xin stared blankly at Gu Xinyan's departing figure, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart that heaven had been kind to him and the Anxi army.
Such good news! When I return to Kucha City tomorrow, I must first tell Uncle Ziyi so that he can be happy too.
Uncle Ziyi's health is not as good as before. He has been suffering from minor ailments for the past two years and is preparing to return to Chang'an. It's enough that he can take care of things here. Uncle Ziyi should get some rest.
However, he was also very pleasantly surprised by Gu Xinyan's arrival, and he believed that Uncle Ziyi felt the same way.
Here, Gu Xinyan followed Mu Ke into a very clean tent.
The furnishings inside the tent were very simple, but they were kept very tidy and without any mess.
"Miss Gu, please rest here for a while. If you need anything, just let me know. I'll be right outside; just call me if you need anything!"
"Okay, thank you for your trouble. I'll call you if I need anything!" Gu Xinyan nodded to Mu Ke and said.
Seeing that Gu Xinyan really didn't have anything for him to do, Mu Ke didn't say anything more and turned to leave the tent.
For a moment, only Gu Xinyan remained in the tent, and she then took a closer look at the tent in front of her.
The tent was simply furnished, with only a bed and a cabinet, a table and a few stools on the other side, and nothing else.
These tables, chairs, and benches look quite old, but they are very well preserved.
It was clear that these grown men were also very meticulous. Gu Xinyan nodded in satisfaction, then walked to the table, sat down, took out paper and pen from her spatial storage, and prepared to start writing the recipe.
After writing just a few words, as if suddenly remembering something, he abruptly plucked 011, which was lying on his hair pretending to be dead.
Caught off guard, 011, who had been pulled down by its own host, awkwardly laughed a few times at Gu Xinyan.
[Hehe! Host, aren't you afraid of being discovered by others for suddenly taking me down like this?]
"Heh! You still have the nerve to laugh? Don't try to change the subject. Tell me, where's my newbie gift pack? You unreliable system! You didn't even give me a gift pack! Humph!"
Gu Xinyan stared intently at the 011 attached to the hair clip and said unkindly.
[Of course not, 011 will get it for you right away. I just forgot, really. A lot has happened lately, and the host has been so busy, 011 just didn't remember!]
Looking at her host's fierce appearance, 011 said with a pitiful expression.
As she spoke, she quickly took out the small box containing the newcomer gift pack that she had found in the system space not long ago and placed it in front of Gu Xinyan like a treasure.
[Host, look, this is the newcomer gift pack from the main system. Quickly open it and see what's inside!]
Upon hearing this, Gu Xinyan ignored 011, who was begging for praise and not to get angry, and curiously examined the small box in front of her.
It looks dark and doesn't seem to be made of wood. The box has a faint glow, giving it a very high-end feel.
Unable to resist rubbing his hands together, he finally opened the box. The moment he opened it, a golden thing shot out of the box and rushed straight towards Gu Xinyan.
Unable to dodge in time, Gu Xinyan watched helplessly as the golden thing burrowed into her head.
Immediately afterwards, something seemed to appear in her mind, but before she could explore it, she was interrupted by 011's exclamation.
【Aaaaaaah!!! Energy stones! There are energy stones in here!】
Upon hearing this, Gu Xinyan temporarily set aside her desire to explore and then looked into the box.
Inside, there lay a token and a black stone the size of an egg.
However, this stone was different from ordinary stones. She could feel something like liquid flowing inside it, which was quite magical.
However, she quickly remembered what 011 had just said and instantly understood what the black stone in front of her was.
So this is an energy stone! It certainly looks extraordinary. And what about this token? What is it?
"011, is this an energy stone? Then what is this token? What is it used for?"
After Gu Xinyan finished speaking, she picked up the token from the box and examined it carefully.
The token was small, entirely silver-white, and made of some unknown material. Surprisingly, it felt warm, not cold at all.
One side of the token is engraved with a large character for "merchant," while the other side is engraved with some strange runes that seem to be alive and can actually move.
Meanwhile, 011, who was staring intently at the energy stone, was practically drooling.
Hearing its host's voice, it finally managed to shift its gaze from the energy stone to the token. After seeing the token clearly, it couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.
[Ahhhh! Host, host, your luck is absolutely incredible!]
This...this...this is the interdimensional shop you've been longing for! We don't even need to level up to level five to have a shop!
"Host, you're really amazing! This dimensional shop isn't very high-level right now, but it's enough for our current needs!"
Upon hearing this, Gu Xinyan looked at the silver token in her hand with some disbelief.
This? This is the interdimensional shop she's been longing for? But a shop is a shop, why would it only give one token? Just as she was about to ask, 011's voice came through her ear again.
[Host, you need to bind this token first, then you can summon it. To bind it, you need to drip a drop of your blood onto it.]
Gu Xinyan was pleasantly surprised by 011's words. She quickly took out a small medical needle from her spatial ring, pricked her finger, and blood gushed out instantly. She quickly dripped the blood onto the token.
The moment the token came into contact with the blood, the runes on it suddenly lit up.
Immediately afterwards, the token in her hand transformed into a silver light, just like the golden light from before, and shot straight into Gu Xinyan's mind.
