Shen Jing raised her hand and glanced at the time.
The mutated vine has been searching under the ice for half an hour, and so far it has only caught a few dozen fish, without a trace of crystal cores.
She couldn't help but feel annoyed: "Should we try another lake?"
Even Shen Jing suspected that Gu Yan had deliberately abused the mutated vine, leaving it submerged in water for so long.
The problem is that they are all from the same root, so why are they so eager to harm each other?
Looking at Gu Yan's face now, it's even paler than before, almost as white as snow.
For an average person, 10 minutes is the limit under the ice. "Hey, hurry up and bring back the mutated vine!"
She sensed that Gu Yan probably thought it didn't matter if either he or the mutated vine died.
Just as Shen Jing was about to reach out and pull the mutated vine, the sound of ice colliding came from underwater.
The mutated vine emerged listlessly from the water, a sky-blue crystal core coiled at its tip.
Gu Yan coldly tossed the mutated vine onto the snow. "It was found a long time ago."
Shen Jing was confused, "It..."
Shen Jing originally wanted to ask why the mutated vine was self-harming, but then she thought of the saying "things resemble their owners".
The parasitic vine will resemble the owner.
She hesitated before taking out the spiritual spring water: "If I drink the spiritual spring water, will I recover, or will I go berserk again?"
Gu Yan sneered, took the spiritual spring water, and gulped it down.
He waved his hand slightly and retracted the mutated vine, saying, "It won't kill it with poison."
Shen Jing sighed, realizing that they had probably entered a vicious cycle again.
"It's actually ice-type." Gu Yan examined the crystal core and casually tossed it to Shen Jing. "You don't need to dig for ice anymore."
Shen Jing steadily caught the still-cold crystal core, which shone with a sky-blue luster, even more dazzling than a sapphire.
She was momentarily captivated by the crystal core.
Gu Yan had a vague guess: "It is even stronger than the crystal core of ordinary five elements."
Shen Jing was reluctant to crush it. "Then what about the previous fiery red crystal core? Why wasn't it a fire-type crystal, but rather a spirit-type crystal?"
“The two are subordinate to each other, and the mental type is superior to all others.” Gu Yan looked at her with amusement. “In other words, you are originally a mental type. No matter what kind of crystal core you are given, it will only make you activate your mental type ability ahead of time.”
"Can I activate other superpowers?" Shen Jing felt herself being tempted by this beautiful crystal core.
"Give it a try?" Gu Yan said in an encouraging tone.
Shen Jing glanced at Gu Yan, whose eyes were full of troublemaking, and asked, "If you don't succeed, you'll self-destruct?"
"With me here, I won't let you self-destruct."
"Then let's give it a try..."
Shen Jing ruthlessly crushed the sky-blue crystal core and skillfully absorbed the energy inside.
Practice makes perfect, and this is the third time already.
She felt her mental strength surge rapidly, almost breaking through to level 6+.
[Mental Strength: 7, Special Ability: Mental Type F-rank, Tier 2, Luck Value: 35%]
[Upgrade Potential: Yes OR No]
Shen Jing pressed "no." There was still enough space for the time being, so she decided to save her luck points to prolong her life.
Last time, I got tricked by it while trying to upgrade my space for receiving goods; it completely wiped out my luck value.
Even Shen Ting managed to scheme against her; it was infuriating.
Others spend money on in-game purchases, but this space requires her to spend her life on it!
Gu Yan's cold fingertips touched her forehead. "Are you feeling unwell?"
Shen Jing came back to her senses and said helplessly, "It seems that I recharged and leveled up to level 2, but I didn't get any new abilities."
“The mental system is indeed domineering.” Gu Yan sneered, “Unfortunately, like the mutated vine, it has no choice.”
"well enough……"
Shen Jing is the type who is content with a modest life.
Moreover, having experienced a past life without superpowers, she will cherish this unexpected acquisition of mental abilities even more.
Gu Yan looked ahead with a gloomy expression. Although the distance was still far, he could still sense it.
A group of people were walking in this direction from a distance.
Annoyed by the uninvited guests, Gu Yan pointed to the snow and said, "Someone's coming."
Shen Jing had no doubts and immediately took out a telescope from her spatial storage.
Sure enough, someone came, and they didn't seem to be ordinary people.
Shen Jing put the fish tank into her spatial storage, and then took out an ordinary fish basket and her father's ice fishing rod.
She skillfully prepared the bait and baited the spot, then sat down on the stool and became a fisherwoman.
Gu Yan was also given the same equipment, ostensibly to lend him his hands.
"..."
Even when Gu Yan was fishing, he had a carefree and leisurely air about him.
Because of his nonchalant expression, he really had the aura of a master at getting people to take the bait.
However, his words revealed his irritating nature: "You're just asking for trouble, you're just bored."
"You, someone who drinks nutritional supplements, would never understand the world of foodies."
Shen Jing had already decided whether she wanted the fish braised or boiled with pickled cabbage when she gave it to Sister Chen to cook.
The mutated vine had already scouted the area, and there were quite a few fish below. She was now waiting patiently; no one could resist delicious fish, but things wouldn't be quiet around here for the time being.
Because that group of people had already walked nearly a hundred meters away.
Among them are some acquaintances.
Huang Yue ran over excitedly, "Chen Jing, Mr. Gu, what are you doing here?"
Gu Yan sat there and sneered, "Isn't it obvious enough?"
This person doesn't realize they're being a third wheel.
Sure enough, Huang Yue's smile widened. "You really caught a fish? That's great! I'll go tell them right now!"
Oh, and they've brought even more people here to shine and contribute.
Gu Yan rested his forehead on his hand, seemingly bored, and didn't care as he slowly fished with the rod in his hand.
