This is what Turner saw from the item interface of the Properties panel regarding the properties of this piece of the alpha chip he had just taken from the old man!
Exactly the same as the original alpha chip of the previous life!
Looking at the chip lying quietly in the palm of his hand, more than half smaller than before, Turner couldn't wait to embed it in his brain.
The increase in intelligence of 15 points, no more, no less, is enough for Turner to use a lot of tools and equipment that he could not use before due to attribute limitations, and it also means that countless good things buried in the depths of his brain have the possibility of seeing the light of day again!
Finally, the brain still retains a trace of sanity, and tells SΓΉ Turner that the old man in front of him who is an absolute expert in mechanical science and other aspects, and his medical attainments are far inferior to his ability to study the alpha chip, so he simply refused to help him with surgery to implant the alpha chip in the brain now, carefully put away the alpha chip, and prepared to go to the old doctor who gave him the medicine for internal injuries.
Perhaps because he had finally perfected his invention director, he was in a good mood, and the old man actually stopped his work after making the first alpha chip, and it was very rare that he did not return to his recliner of unknown years to close his eyes and recuperate, but stood in front of Turner with an old god, and asked with a happy smile: "Young man, I got what I wanted without spending a penny, aren't you going to buy some things on the counter and support the old man financially?" β
Turner rolled his eyes, what the old man said was just nonsense, his small shop that looked so dilapidated that people didn't even have the urge to walk in was actually a real treasure shop, in the previous life, there was no way to store anything on these three huge counters, and as soon as something was put on the counter, it would be quickly snatched away by the players guarding here.
The counter on the right, for example, was a mess of parts and components, but Turner knew that by putting a few of them together, he could build a machine capable of producing a standard MKK63 energy pistol.
The same goes for the other two counters, with parts to assemble a freshwater machine and parts to assemble a high-powered space radio.
These things, taken out casually, even in this life, are also sought-after, but unfortunately they are not what Turner needs, even if you want to assemble them and sell them for money, you still need to go through various procedures in the middle, as a non-famous loser in the previous life, Turner is too lazy to do this.
Of course, with Turner's temperament, in such a treasure shop, how could he just take the alpha chip and leave?
After casually turning around in front of the three large counters, he had already found what he needed, took out a basketball-sized box from the counter, and then took out the alloy dagger that had been with him since Motier, and handed it to the old man.
Naturally, the square box cannot be an ordinary square box, but a simple sharpening tool, but, compared to ordinary sharpening tools, this square box has additional attributes - an additional 10% increase in the sharpness of the blade, if it is done by the old man himself, this attribute will be increased to 20%, how could Turner let go of this opportunity.
Seeing that the old man began to help him sharpen his knife without saying a word, Turner was not idle, and took out a dusty toolbox from the corner of the junction of the two counters, which was the second most valuable thing in this shop for Turner besides the alpha chip - the master's toolbox!
Speaking of this toolbox, there is also an interesting story.
In the previous life, since the secret of this shop was obtained by the players, there was an additional group of people in the shop who squatted again every day, ready to clear the new goods on the shelves at any time, among these people, there was an unlucky egg, and he didn't grab any goods for a month, and in a fit of anger, he picked up this tattered toolbox that was not on the shelves and had no price, and had been considered to be the old man's own use, and then gave all the money on his body to the old man, but he didn't expect the old man to really nod and sell it to him.
While the others were secretly laughing at the injustice, he seemed to be crazy, hugged the toolbox tightly and laughed and left, and soon after, an object called "Master's Toolbox" was listed on the auction house, and the lowest price marked was millions of times what the man spent at that time!
But it is such a sky-high price, which still attracts countless players to bid for it, and the reason is naturally because the attributes of that toolbox are too rebellious!
[Master's Toolbox - Use the tools in this toolbox to create things, increase the attributes by 5%-15%, and there is a 3% chance of high-quality mutations, so that the item can gain an additional 1-3 attributes! γ
A toolbox,There are many kinds of tools in it,Each tool carries these attributes,To put it bluntly,It's not an exaggeration to put this toolbox into the category of artifacts.,In the previous life, it wasn't until many years later that there were tools and props that could be comparable to this toolbox.γ
The old man had already sharpened the alloy dagger, handed it back to Turner, saw what Turner meant, and put the sharpening box back into the counter, looked at the toolbox in Turner's hand, and said with a wry smile: "You kid seems to know my little shop better than me, and you even found out the guy at the bottom of my box." β
"Hehe, I'm here for these this time, anyway, it's useless for your old man to keep these, so it's better to forget it for me." Turner grinned.
"To you? Yes, just for you to help me fulfill my long-cherished wish for decades, it's not too much to give you this thing, I remember you mentioned a price before, how much? 50,000 universal coins? , I don't raise the price anymore, that's it. The old man reclined back comfortably in his recliner and looked at Turner.
"Uh......" Turner said, I didn't expect the old man's memory to be so good, even Turner remembered what he said before in order to arouse his interest, and couldn't help but smile awkwardly: "This, of course it's no problem, it's just that the money is not on me now, or don't you owe it first?" I'll pay you back when I get the money. β
The old man laughed and said: "Okay, I know that you don't mean to give money, okay, this little gadget, I'm useless, it's okay to give it to you, it just depends on what you mean, it doesn't seem to be just these gadgets you want, right?" β
"Hehe, nothing can escape your eyes." Turner smiled and said, "Actually, I still want to learn something about mechanical science with your old man." β
The old man was stunned when he heard this, and said, "Based on your previous appearance, you should be quite proficient in this piece of things, right, do you still need me to teach you?" β
"I just know some formulas, I don't understand the basics, and I need more guidance from you." Turner said more and more respectfully.
The old man looked at Turner for a long time, finally got up from the recliner, nodded and said, "Okay, come with me!" So saying, he went to the inner room first.
