Luo Xinglan called out in the group chat: "I'm still missing one Wood Spirit Orb. I have extra other spirit orbs and spirit stones. Do any of you have extra Wood Spirit Orbs to trade with me?"
Jiang Mingze was the first to reply: "Sister Lan, I only have 5 Wood Spirit Orbs, and I want to learn how to be a Beast Tamer..."
Zhou Yiran: "I just traded a Wood Spirit Orb for a Gold Spirit Orb with someone else. If you had told me a minute earlier, I would have traded with you, Lanlan."
Jiang Zifeng: "I only managed to get one Wood Spirit Orb, and I traded it with someone else."
Ding Xiaoling: "I'm sorry, Xinglan, I haven't been able to get the Wood Spirit Orb."
Luo Xinglan: "It's okay, I'll ask someone else then."
Luo Xinglan closed the chat and decided to check if the Frog Shop had any Wood Spirit Orbs, just in case they had all the Spirit Orbs.
Upon opening it, the "Daily Supplies" had turned into "Sealing Charms".
Very well, so you'll just refuse to give her whatever she wants?
Luo Xinglan had no choice but to open the world chat channel to see if anyone wanted to exchange Wood Spirit Orbs.
"Golden Spirit Pearls for Water Spirit Pearls, trade with me directly if you have any!"
"Exchange spirit stones for wooden spirit pearls!"
"Exchange the Fire Spirit Orb for the Wood Spirit Orb!"
"The drop rate of Wood Spirit Orbs seems a bit low. I've never gotten one. Luckily, I don't plan to learn a wood-type profession."
"I want to learn the Wood-type profession of Manipulator, but I'm still missing two Wood Spirit Orbs! Does anyone have any? I'm willing to trade other spirit orbs for them! Two for one is also acceptable!"
"I want a Wood Spirit Orb too! I'm willing to trade 3 for 1! Trade quickly if you have any! It's almost midnight!"
"Stop talking! I only got 3 spirit orbs in total, and I can't learn any professions. Can anyone give me some spirit orbs? If not, I'm willing to spend gold coins!"
"Exchange 2 spirit stones for 1 spirit pearl!"
"Are you crazy upstairs? There are plenty of spirit stones, who would trade spirit pearls for a pile of useless spirit stones?"
...
Most people in the world are asking to exchange for Wood Spirit Orbs, but no one else is willing to give up Wood Spirit Orbs.
It seems the game has lowered the drop rate of Wood Spirit Orbs.
Luo Xinglan was a little anxious. If she didn't get the Wood Spirit Orb, she wouldn't be able to learn how to be a mechanical engineer.
She could use 5 Gold Spirit Orbs to learn the Gold Coin Forging Technician skill, but that wasn't her first choice!
I glanced at the time; it was already 11:58.
Only two minutes left.
Luo Xinglan suddenly remembered that she hadn't checked the "Special Commodity Trade Zone" yet; maybe it would be there!
She immediately opened the "Special Commodity Trade Zone" and searched for Wood Spirit Orbs. Sure enough, they were available, but each one cost 100,000 gold coins.
Where would she get 100,000 gold coins?
Although she made a profit from selling the keys, she only had a little over 20,000 gold coins in total, which was far from enough to buy them.
It was already 11:59.
Luo Xinglan has already decided to give up on the Mechanical Engineer and choose the Gold Coin Forger. If she doesn't choose now, she'll really miss the opportunity!
[Would you like to become a gold coin minter?]
Just as Luo Xinglan was about to press "Yes", several voices rang in her mind.
[Ding! Your frog has sent you travel photos. Do you want to view them?]
Your little frog is back from its journey! Go see what it brought back!
Luo Xinglan paused. The froglet is back?
She immediately clicked on the frog's information to check it out.
[Friend: Frog]
Grade: Green
Level: 5
Experience: 45/50
Talent: Double Reward
Second talent: A master of making friends
Backpack: Full Spirit Orb
Note: The frog will take a trip every now and then. Prepare its favorite food, and it will bring back unexpected rewards!
Luo Xinglan was overjoyed, her heart pounding. The frog had actually brought her back the Complete Spirit Pearl!
With lightning speed, she took the Spirit Orb out of the frog's backpack, instantly turning one Spirit Orb into two.
[Should I choose to become a mechanical engineer?]
"yes!"
Congratulations on becoming a mechanical engineer! Check out the job description now.
At the same time, as a new day dawned, the system voice sounded precisely on time:
Hello, survivors!
After a day of consideration, I'm sure everyone has chosen their ideal career. Now, please familiarize yourself with your respective jobs. Goodnight, sweet dreams!
Luo Xinglan's heartbeat gradually slowed down. She held the frog cub in her hands, unable to put it down. The frog cub was truly her lucky star; it had actually brought her the All-Spirit Pearl!
The frog's backpack has three compartments, and it used to fill all three compartments before coming back. This time, however, it only used one compartment before returning.
Could it be...?
Did the frog rush back specifically to give her the complete Spirit Pearl?
Luo Xinglan happily rubbed the frog's chubby face, but finally let go under the frog's protesting gaze.
The frog had just escaped from her clutches when it jumped onto the bed and squinted its eyes, pretending to sleep.
Luo Xinglan didn't disturb it, and opened the profession panel to view a more detailed introduction to the mechanical engineer.
Mechanical Engineer
Level: 0 (Upgrade requires Spirit Stones)
Experience: 0/100
Unique skill: Can create mini robots; the attributes of the mini robots increase as the maker's level increases.
Current number of robots that can be manufactured: 0 (Next level: 1)
At the current level, you can't create robots; you still need to accumulate experience to level up.
Having finally become the mechanical engineer she had always dreamed of, Luo Xinglan felt a huge weight lifted off her shoulders.
She wasn't sleepy at the moment, so she lay in bed watching the world channel.
"Help! I didn't have time to choose a career! What should I do? What should I do?"
"This controller skill is so frustrating! If you fail to control it, you actually suffer a backlash!"
"Could there be a worse situation than being an elemental manipulator like me? I thought I could control all kinds of elements, but I got ice by random! Ice! In this sweltering heat, where am I supposed to get ice? Is this some kind of suicide mission?"
"Summoner, the summoned creature is uncertain, and if its level is too low, it might kill me. I'm so fed up!"
"Hahaha, you poor elemental manipulator above, I randomly got water. The water in the ocean is inexhaustible!"
"I'm speechless. He didn't mention any of the weaknesses of these professions!"
"For those who need ice, doesn't Boss Luo Xinglan have an ice maker? Go and latch onto Boss Luo Xinglan's coattails."
"Have you noticed that upgrading also requires spirit stones?"
"That guy who wanted to trade spirit stones for spirit pearls? I'll trade with you!"
"Get lost! I'm so annoyed that I didn't learn the profession I wanted!"
...
Luo Xinglan's eyes flashed.
Elemental manipulators could only manipulate one type of substance.
It seems that every profession has its limitations.
Also, if someone says that summoned creatures might kill the summoner, then won't the robots she creates also kill her?
Shaking her head, Luo Xinglan dismissed the thought from her mind. Since the introduction didn't explicitly state it, it probably wouldn't happen, so there was no need to worry unnecessarily.
