Chapter 85: Shortcuts
Jarvis's voice is very similar to Claire, fortunately, his speech speed, words, and pronunciation habits are obviously different from Claire, otherwise Lin Hai is very suspicious that the guy in front of him is actually Claire pretending.
In fact, the biggest difference between the two is the eyes, for ordinary people, a person's eyes are the window of the soul, and for an awakened person, the eyes can expose too much information, Lin Hai has never discovered this, until he encountered such a strange copy of the world, Lin Hai found that he could accurately identify this person through a person's eyes, especially when the other party did not hide his eyes.
That's right, Lin Hai can clearly see his sharp knife and happy mood in Jarvis's eyes, and he is the lamb to the slaughter in his eyes.
It's certainly not a wonderful experience, but it's impossible to resist.
"That's... Mr. Jarvis, I think I have to understand what I need first. ”
Jarvis Pi laughed without smiling, raised his hand and hurriedly took out a white stick behind the counter, the thickness of a thumb, about twenty centimeters in length, the material seems to be metal, there is a gray protrusion on it, it should be a button.
Jarvis's thumb rested on the protrusion, and then pressed it gently, and then a translucent color screen suddenly appeared on the side of the white stick, about thirty-two folios, Jarvis stretched out his right hand, pinched the upper right corner of the semi-transparent screen, and then pulled, the screen expanded a lot.
Lin Hai looked at this very dazzling thing curiously, but what made him helpless was that he didn't know the text displayed on the screen, and even the various things displayed in the picture Lin Hai still didn't know anything, the only thing he knew should be a list, and there was a text description behind each picture, perhaps, there was a price.
Jarvis glanced up at Lin Hai, and then patted his forehead with some frustration:
"I forgot, you don't know the universal language yet."
"Can't you teleport with consciousness?"
Jarvis rolled his eyes:
"There's a lot of content, and it needs to be updated frequently, okay, it's idle anyway, I'll introduce it to you slowly."
"I'm in trouble."
"My commodities here can be roughly divided into three categories, one is physical props, such as armor, weapons and auxiliary supplies, including compressed food, emergency drugs and auxiliary medicines, tools, etc.; The second category is soul energy props, which I won't introduce in detail, everything that can be bought outside, I have it here, and the category is complete. The last category is special items, which only work in this dungeon, such as stealth items, invincible special effect items, etc..."
Lin Hai's face changed when he heard this:
"In other words, as long as I have enough soul energy points, I can basically reach my destination safely?"
Jarvis swept Lin Hai with disdain like an idiot:
"You're not wrong, but if you're going to do that, what are you here for?"
Lin Hai smiled slightly and asked:
"But isn't that what you do when you provide these props?"
Jarvis looked at Lin Hai seriously:
"Guest, you must understand that this is not a peaceful world, as long as you get out of this safe zone, your little life may be thrown away anytime and anywhere, so the role of these props is to prevent accidents, I can tell you responsibly, no trialist can clear the level at one time in this dungeon, yes, no."
Lin Hai's face also became serious:
"I see, the purpose of these items is to allow the trialists to die a few times less, saving time and soul energy points?"
"It seems that you finally understand that the value of all the items I have here lies in this, and every soul energy point you spend with me is to save more soul energy points."
Lin Hai nodded silently, but what Jarvis said was right, only if you are willing to invest can you reap the rewards! But why do you feel that something is wrong, huh? I was brainwashed by Jarvis unknowingly!?
"Okay, can you be specific, what's your recommendation?"
Jarvis tugged at the corners of his mouth, not disappointed by Lin Hai's awakening, and continued to speak patiently:
"For a beginner dungeon, what you need is a prop that allows you to live as long as possible, because your goal now is not to go to the big lake in the middle of the map, which doesn't seem too far, but to collect as much information as possible on the Gobi, from the sand and weeds under your feet, to the unpredictable weather, and of course, the owners of those wastelands, every time you know more, you will have a better chance of success."
Lin Hai frowned:
"I heard that you have a wasteland encyclopedia here, and I think this should help me a lot."
Jarvis raised an eyebrow, his fingers scratched a few times on the translucent screen, and then smiled:
"Your choice is very wise, the full set of "Wasteland Survival Course Volumes 1-5" will benefit 15,000 soul energy points, do you need it?"
Lin Hai was frightened by this amazing price, a set of books! And this is just a collection of dungeon information, and the dungeon is simply artificially generated, and it can be said that it is effortless to collect this information, but it is so expensive to sell this information to the trialists, and it is even much more expensive than the price of entering the dungeon.
Looking at Lin Hai's dark face, Jarvis smiled happily, he liked this expression of hating you to the core, but he couldn't do anything about you, of course, this is just a little fun that can be found in boring work, and has nothing to do with bad taste.
"Actually, the price is fair, after all, with this tutorial, you will save a lot of time and soul energy points, trust me. Also, you don't have to worry about reading, because this tutorial is a memory pack, and after you buy it, you will be able to read it in seconds. But I have to warn you that you can't pass this on to anyone else, or there will be serious consequences, and you don't have any secrets in this copy, you know? ”
"Well, can I ask what the serious consequences are?"
"Even if you and the person who has access to your information will be kicked out and listed as persona non grata forever, and at the same time, the breach of credibility will be reported to the Star Alliance Governing Body, and once verified, the credibility of you and your guarantor will be seriously damaged."
It sounds so serious, Lin Hai nodded seriously, it seems that this kind of thing must not be done, it should be said that anything that damages credibility must not be done.
Although Jarvis's suggestion sounds very reasonable, Lin Hai is still a little hesitant, the tutorial is really useful, but if this thing is really that important, shouldn't the black cat give himself a hint, if this tutorial is cheap, the black cat forgot to say it, but this tutorial is so expensive, if this tutorial is a must, the black cat has no reason not to tell himself.
Or, as the black cat says, he would never interfere in any way with his trials?
It's just that this price... It seems that even black cats have some flesh pain.
Lin Hai was pondering, and Jarvis looked at Lin Hai with interest, as if he was watching an interesting play.
After a while, Lin Hai raised his head and looked at Jarvis and asked:
"Mr. Claire said to me just now that this road is a road to the other side, really... Is there a shortcut? Oh, I mean, do we really need shortcuts? ”
Jarvis's eyes narrowed:
"Hehe, I can't answer this question, but I think there is such a thing as a shortcut, there is always a shortcut, aren't we used to taking the road that our predecessors have walked, as for whether to take it or not, it's up to you to choose."
"The road that has been walked before?"
Lin Hai seemed to be talking to himself, and after finishing speaking, he fell into deep thought.
I don't know how long it has been, and Lin Hai doesn't seem to have figured out his choice, but he is awakened by the sound coming from the door of the tent.
"Hey, dear Jarvis I'm back again, haha... Hey, I ran into a 'person'! Good luck. ”
Lin Hai turned his head to look, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help twitching vigorously, how lazy the owner of this copy must be, the person who came in was a copy of Claire, except for the difference in voice and eyes, now Lin Hai was sure that his appearance must also be this honor.
A copy of all identical clones!
Countless divine beasts rushed away in Lin Hai's mind.
Without waiting for Lin Hai to decide what to do, the hoodman who came in came to Lin Hai's side with a smile, stretched out his hand to grab Lin Hai's shoulder, shook it vigorously before letting go, and at the same time said in a loud voice cheerfully:
"Brother, my name is Adrian, @#%%¥ Star Person... Ah, my hometown sounds a little strange, but you can remember this number, the Great Crown Galaxy, the star number of the Ninth Sector 997645221 the second planet, if you have the chance, you can travel Oh, my hometown is beautiful, and the women are beautiful, hehe..."
Lin Hai has a black line, this self-familiar guy has been talking nonsense for a long time, Lin Hai doesn't know where the Great Crown Galaxy is, let alone where the star No. 997645221 in the Ninth Star Zone is, as for the beauty... By the way, are we the same race?
What makes Lin Hai even more inexplicable is that he didn't say that he would kill anyone he saw in this trial dungeon, is this such a warm and friendly guy a fake?
Seeing Lin Hai's bewildered look, Adrian seemed to be in a very good mood, raised his head and laughed, and even his little tongue shook and jumped.
As if guessing Lin Hai's thoughts, Jarvis glanced at the arrogant Adrian, turned to Lin Hai and said:
"Everyone is friends in the safe zone, and when you get out of the safe zone, what should you do?"
Adrian reached out and patted Lin Hai's shoulder again, his strength was quite good, and Lin Hai's shoulder was crooked.
"Haha... Newcomer, are you here for the first time? It's normal for everyone to fight and kill in this trial dungeon, and it's over when it's over, besides, who can you hate? So there's no need to be so nervous. ”
Lin Hai smiled, turned his head to look at Adrian and said:
"Xiaolin, a newcomer, please advise."
I will be stupid if I believe you, and I will definitely hide from you for a while.
