Chapter 3: The One Ring
Opened the lottery interface with a familiar way, put ten energy points, and the mysterious and simple compass began to rotate again, and the patterns engraved on the compass also emitted white light, not so gorgeous but very dazzling......
Yang Chen stared at the compass, but his mind didn't know where to fly, some things can only be thought about when he was full of food and drink, until now, he was still in a trance, and he always felt very unreal, like a dream......
The unique prompt sound of the "Ding~" system interrupted Yang Chen in melancholy, "Extract a book of insight skills, do you want to extract and learn?"
Insight Technique?What is this?Could it be an appraisal technique or something?Yang Chen was a little curious, and after choosing to extract and learn, he carefully looked at the skill introduction:
Skill Name: Insight
Quality: Normal
Skill Effect: Consumes a certain amount of mental power, which can guide the character to the designated place
Comment: This thing is still very useful, but I don't know if your small body can carry it......
After ignoring the disgusting person's evaluation, Yang Chen felt a little excited in his heart, although it was not an imaginary identification technique, but there was no doubt that for him at this time, the insight technique with the wayfinding function was undoubtedly more useful, which meant that he could finally leave this dangerous forest and devote himself to the location of a safer intelligent civilization......
Is it really safe in a civilized place? Actually, it is not necessarily, but what else can be done? After all, I am a stranger and isolated from this world......
Yang Chen tried not to think about this, he was going to experiment with the effect of the insight technique first, if there was a human race in this world, then as long as the nearest human gathering place was searched, the insight technique would definitely have relevant guidance, if nothing happened after using it, then it would mean that there was no human race in this world, and it would be extremely difficult to integrate into the civilization of other intelligent races.
Yang Chen unleashed his first insight technique very unskillfully according to the method in his mind, only to see a gray mist appear in his field of vision and disperse into the distance, like a chain tightly connecting Yang Chen and the world outside the jungle...... The hanging heart was put down, Yang Chen secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and the effect of the insight technique also dissipated because of the relaxation of his mind. Fortunately, things are not so bad after all, there are still humans in this world, and that's enough......
It's just that the consumption of the insight technique is quite large, and in less than two seconds after it was released, Yang Chen felt a slight tingling and heaviness in his head, as if he had listened attentively to a high math class for three hours in a row, and he was groggy. At this time, Yang Chen understood what it meant to be able to withstand it in the skill evaluation column...... smiled bitterly, after all, he was too weak......
At this point, the number of ordinary draws has been exhausted, and only the only unlimited draw remains. At present, the only thing with more lethality in his hand is the pistol with fourteen rounds...... But it was far from enough for Yang Chen, if he wanted to rely on this pistol to leave this forest safely and enter the human gathering place, it was tantamount to a fool's dream.
So after thinking about it for a while, Yang Chen gritted his teeth and used the precious opportunity to draw without limits......
The compass turned slowly again, but without the previous bells and whistles, Yang Chen was a little nervous, this system is really too pitiful, and it is possible to draw any kind of thing.
Fortunately, the system didn't make Yang Chen wait too long, and the compass stopped rotating after a while, and a vague ring-like shadow appeared on the compass little by little......
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for drawing the One Ring!"
Yang Chen's eyes couldn't help but widen, for every earthling, the Lord of the Rings series can be described as a great name, whether it is a novel or the Lord of the Rings movie trilogy made later, it has left a deep impact on people. And the Supreme Ring among them is something that countless people dream of......
As a veteran fan of games, Yang Chen has also played the genuine Lord of the Rings game created by Warner Bros., the Middle-earth series. What is certain is that the One Ring drawn now must be from the series...... It's just that I don't know if it's the one in the protagonist's hand......
Yes, yes, in the Lord of the Rings, there are two One Rings, one is the One Ring created by the Lord Sauron with his own magic power, and the other is the new One Ring created by the protagonist Talion and the Lord of Light, Keo Bribon. The difference between the two rings is that the ring infused with the power of the Demon Lord Sauron is more powerful, but the wearer is easily lured by the evil power in it, becoming a ring spirit under the Demon Lord, completely losing his free will. Although the new Supreme Ring is not so powerful in terms of strength, the good thing is that the energy contained in it can be used freely and will not affect the wearer......
But no matter which magic ring it is, it is a rare help for Yang Chen, who is weak at this time. After clicking to extract, Yang Chen had an extra pale gold ring in his hand. It looked plain, but Yang Chen's hand couldn't help but tremble slightly, and he clearly understood what kind of charming brilliance this ring would bloom when it was immersed in flames......
Equipment Name: New One Ring
Rank: (Mutation) Supreme
Characteristics: 1. Interception. The New One Ring will intercept part of the wearer's life and will, thus resisting most spiritual attacks, and greatly increasing mental power, willpower, and vitality.
2. Domination. This effect expands the wearer's dominance, allowing them to permanently enslave the weak-willed through their powerful psychic powers.
3. Spiritual communication. The Lord of the Rings can be used to construct spiritual channels between different creatures and achieve communication.
4. Necromantic Vision. The Lord of the Rings causes the wearer to step into the boundary between the necromantic realm and the human realm, thus achieving the effect of becoming invisible in the real world. Note: If you enter the Necromantic Realm for too long, you will be contaminated with necromantic aura and completely transform into a necromantic creature.
Yang Chen put the magic ring between his fingers, and his fluctuating heart gradually subsided...... The mental power consumed just now due to the release of insight was quickly replenished by the magic ring, and it was also slightly increased, even if the effect of interception was not activated, as a supreme-level equipment, it still had some gains......
Gently rubbing the ring on his finger, Yang Chen felt unprecedented peace of mind at this moment......
After a busy time, it was already noon...... The sun is shining brightly, and through the branches and leaves of the trees, a little light is reflected under the shade of the trees...... Yang Chen can finally feel this most natural and primitive jungle......
Mother, mother~
A slime jumped over, as if he hadn't seen Yang Chen, and actually jumped directly on Yang Chen......
Yang Chen subconsciously dodged backwards, but soon relaxed, for him, the novice monster slime at this time was not a concern at all......
Yang Chen leaned against the trunk of the tree, held the rusty sword in his hand, and pinned the fourteen-round pistol to his waist, closed his eyes and pretended to sleep......
He was going to hunt with the power of the Ring in the afternoon, and after solving the food problem, he was about to embark on a long journey with no known time and distance......
............
Yang Chen suddenly opened his eyes, cold sweat had climbed up his back for some time, he only planned to close his eyes and rest for a while, but he fell asleep unconsciously......
I couldn't help but clench my fists secretly, I was still too careless, in case there was a powerful sneak attack by a demonic beast, I would already be in the belly of the beast when I reacted......
At this time, the sun was gradually turning west, and although there was a slime tribe here, he could not completely take a little precautions, so he decided to set up a small nest in the trees first, at least to make people feel at ease......
Fortunately, although the iron sword is worn, it can still cut branches, and a hidden nest will be made in a while...... The next step is to solve the food problem......
As the so-called people take food as the sky, and the so-called hunger panic if you don't eat a meal, although you have eaten at noon, you can't skip dinner...... Besides, Yang Chen believed that with the power of the Supreme Ring, he could get food quickly......
But soon after, reality dealt him a painful blow...... Even if he has the power of the Ring to be invisible, he has never had a similar experience, and he has almost not killed a long-eared rabbit with an empty body of equipment......
Yang Chen returned to the slime territory with a rabbit that had been hacked to death with a knife...... When he ran into trouble again, he couldn't make a fire at all, he couldn't drill wood to make fire, and he couldn't do anything to make fire......
After working for most of the day, I still didn't get anything...... Yang Chen's heart was full of despair, lying in the nest of the tree and staring at the sky...... The protagonists in the novel all meet the gods and kill the gods and the Buddhas after getting the golden fingers, but the author has never described the protagonist's eating, drinking, and Lazar in detail...... Who knows how much suffering there will be after being truly exiled to another world?
As the distant sunset faded its last rays, the closest glimmer of light to him was swallowed up by darkness...... There were bursts of roars and whimpering not far away, and Yang Chen clearly knew that it was where the poor rabbit that had been drunk of blood was...... There is no peace after death......
Thinking of this, Yang Chen couldn't help pursing his lips, and after making a fire hopelessly, he chose to suck the rabbit's remaining blood......
There is nothing glamorous in this world? There are countless similar things in this jungle......
Yang Chen didn't dare to sleep, just rubbed the ring in his hand, which was his only reliance at this time... Shooting in the dark of night is tantamount to suicide, not only does it fail to aim and kill the target, but the sound of gunfire attracts more ferocious predators.
The night was long, but Yang Chen had no choice, he could occasionally indirectly plunge into the gap of the necromantic realm to take a nap, but it was not a long-term solution...... He could deeply feel that the Necromantic Horizon had not been open for a long time, only less than two hours, and beyond this limit, he would be contaminated with the breath of Necromancer, and degenerate into Necromantic Soul little by little......
The night was so long, the rustle of the leaves of the wind, the whistling of unknown monsters, the howls of the wind wolves, the aberration of the jungle that was supposed to be quiet...
The forest at night may never be so quiet...... Even cunning creatures that try to keep silent will be killed by the more vigilant and stealthy Dark Killer, who screams in the face of death......
It was an extremely quiet and extremely lively night......
