Chapter 146: Feel free to write
After reading Qu Lingling's diary, Chen Mian speculated that the shapeshifter Lalo should have approached her in the form of Qu Lingling's male god Frank in the United States at first, and then stayed by her side to read her memories to deepen his understanding of the world.
The real Qu Lingling should have died at the end of November last year, the reason is estimated that she wanted to return to China, so that the shapeshifter Lalo knew that Blue Star still has an identity certificate, and it is difficult to move an inch without an identity certificate, it is a person with no normal origin, so she chose to kill Qu Lingling to replace her, after a month of getting along, it is estimated that she already knows Qu Lingling very well, and she is very good at disguise.
Judging from Qu Lingling's diary, this transformation monster appeared alone and may not have accomplices, but Chen Mian still checked the people who were close to Qu Lingling's identity, and none of them had abnormal search traces on the Internet.
The next day, Aunt Fang, the nanny of the Qu family's old house, made breakfast on time, but found that Miss Qu had not gone downstairs for a long time, she hesitated and chose to go upstairs to have a look, but unfortunately there was no response to knocking on the door, the door was locked from the inside, and she couldn't open it, so she had to make a phone call, and heard the phone ringing through the door, but no one answered, so she was a little worried.
After calling and obtaining Qu's father's consent, Aunt Fang went out to find a few young adults and helped her break the door open, the bed was empty, only the folds of the sheet showed that there was once a person lying here.
The news of Qu Lingling's disappearance spread, Chen Mian sat on the magic flying carpet and looked at the gradually lively Qu house, first Qu's father and mother came back, and then the police came to the door, and all kinds of villagers who watched the excitement also came around, Chen Mian sensed the information of these people one by one, and did not find anything wrong.
By the time it was night again, all the people who were close to Qu Lingling that Chen Mian had found before had already come to Qu Mansion, and all the information about these people was the real human race.
Finally determined that the shapeshifter Lalo was acting alone, Chen Mian left Hongmen Township and entered the attached space in the uninhabited mountain forest, without sleep for a day and a night, even with the support of the healing series of spells, he still felt mentally exhausted, and fell asleep after eating something.
After sleeping and feeling comfortable, Chen Mian stretched his waist, looking at the choppy sea outside through the window as if he had returned to Luce Island, he had been out for so long, and he thought about the days on the island, and the virtual sea water outside the window was enough to be real, but after watching it for a long time, he would find that this virtual scene was always not as natural as the real scenery.
It's a pity that the task of guarding the blue star will not be completed in a while, Chen Mian doesn't know when he will be able to go back, take out the ghost woman's eye necklace, hold the ring on the pendant, Chen Mian saw the scene outside the small villa on Luce Island, it has only been uninhabited for two months, a little weeds have grown outside the door, and a thin layer of ash has fallen on the doorknob, and the cranberry tree outside the house bears fruit at the end of August, and a whole month has passed, and the berries on the tree have already cheapened the birds on the island.
Seeing no trace of anyone coming, Chen Mian put away the witch's eyes and began to practice for the first time in October, two hours later, the mana value of Chen Mian's mage and priest professions both reached 132.5 points, the meditation was over, she opened the character panel, and the new month's task was refreshed again.
"Single-player shard world quests: Green Flame Skull (Hard), Dreadeater (Hard)."
Chen Mian only took a cursory look at the name of the task, and couldn't find more information from the name alone, but now she is much more comfortable coping with the difficulty level, and she is not too worried about the lack of targeted preparation, she turned off the character panel and came to the trading floor to conduct this month's pattern trading.
After half a day, Chen Mian sold one of each of the three silver-level patterns, deducting the cost of renting the trading room for 4 hours, and made a net profit of 238 spars, counting the previous deposits, a total of 549 spars.
For the remaining half a day, Chen Mian continued to use the previous method to investigate the information of the people he met while rushing to the road in Lanxing. It wasn't until the next day, after the dwell time of the world network was refreshed again, that she entered the trading area again.
Chen Mian's previous silver filigree ink pen could only be filled with bronze-level and below energy ink, and when drawing silver-level patterns, Chen Mian had been using the first set of carving knives that didn't even have a grade, and it just so happened that the silver-level energy ink was gone, and Chen Mian came to the mage's hut again.
I first spent 100 spars to buy two bottles of silver-grade energy ink, and then looked at the pen items, the shape of the pen of the silver silk ink pen, and the function of automatically adjusting the softness of the nib Chen Mian liked it very much, but unfortunately this was limited by the level, and could only store bronze and below ink, which was not very usable.
But after searching the whole store, I didn't see a pen of a similar form, Chen Mian was a little disappointed, the pen was easy to use for a while and had to be familiar with it for a while, this time the funds were enough, Chen Mian wanted to find a pen that could be used for a while longer.
With the idea of searching the trading floor if he couldn't find what he was looking for, Chen Mian went directly to the trading floor.
Sure enough, there are a lot of pens similar to the shape of fountain pens on the trading floor, the price is high and low, and various functions to improve the success rate of drawing emerge in endlessly, but the types and grades of ink that can be stored are limited by the grade of the pen itself, which makes her not very satisfied.
Just as he was about to buy a gold-grade pen first, in order to use it for a longer period of time, Chen Mian suddenly thought that since the grade limited the ink that the pen could use, what about the special-grade pen? She quickly adjusted the search keywords, no longer restricting the form of the pen, and only filtered out the special level of pen.
I looked at several special-grade quill pens and carving knives in a row, most of them have no ink restrictions, but she doesn't like the form very much, and most of them have some strange functions, such as a charcoal pen that can be drawn out of paper and become a real thing that can be faked, but it can only exist for one day, and this function that does not play much role in Chen Mian's drawing patterns is just a burden.
Pulling the page to the bottom, Chen Mian saw a very desirable pen, which was milky white and long-shaped, like a small wooden stick, and he couldn't tell that it was a pen without looking at the information.
"Free pen (special grade): This pen has no fixed form, and can change various forms according to the user's mind."
The ability to freely change its own form is simply satisfactory, and the price is 200 spars, which is equivalent to a top-level silver equipment, which is much cheaper than the gold-level pen I saw before, and there is no need to change it frequently after having it.
Chen Mian bought it, his mind moved, the milky white stick turned into a black pen, it was the longest pen Chen Mian used when he was a student, it was just right to hold in his hand, and it could become a sharp carving knife even when needed, with this pen, no matter what he wanted to draw on in the future, he could draw a pattern on anything.
