Chapter 165: The Meaning of the Journey

April 30th, night.

Outside the window, the prismatic tower still stood silently, and the soft lights on it flickered like Xia Chen's first night in Carlos five months ago.

There is a beginning and an end, Carlos's last night, Xia Chen, who has a slight obsessive-compulsive disorder, also chose to spend it here.

It's just that the elves who accompany them have changed.

Yin Bu evolved into the fairy Yin Bu, the little Lori Lalu Lace grew into a girl Chirulian Ann, and there was a strange ghost Zoroa, and even Menas had an inexplicable change in temperament.

And all of this is integrated into the journey along the way, and it happens naturally.

Of course, if you stretch the comparison time back half a year, the changes will be even greater.

Anchoring two points in time with a long enough interval before Xia Chen realized what growth is.

However, there is a beginning and an end to the journey, and this unforgettable time will eventually come to an end.

Throwing away the storage ball that Fladali had given him before leaving, Xia Chen decided to complete the unpacking at this special time and place.

I wonder if Vladali can give any good things in order to win over himself, will it be a keystone or a super evolution stone?

Throwing away his unrealistic fantasies, Xia Chen opened the storage ball and poured the contents on the carpet.

No more, no less, five metal boxes of different sizes.

Why don't you say no more, no less, because the four elves in his party add up to exactly five, and the careful Vladali should have prepared five different temporary gifts.

Xia Chen greeted the elves who were doing their own things in the room, "Everyone, come over and share gifts together!" ”

He originally wanted to say that these deceived things were divided into spoils, but when you think about it, it seems that it has been Vladali's wishful thinking all along, so why talk about deception?

So Xia Chen calmly accepted the gift from nature.

After a while, Senbu and Chirulian, who were whispering in the corner of the room, Menas who were watching the night in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, and Zoroa, who looked like he had just finished cultivating immortals, came over and looked curiously at the five metal boxes on the carpet.

…………

In order for everyone to experience the joy of unpacking, Xia Chen proposed: "Come on, let's pick one to open." ”

Both Android and Apple are available. 】

He first rubbed his hand on the body of Xianbu beside him, and then took the brunt of opening the nearest box to him.

With a click, the lid popped open.

Inside, there was a small orb with a crimson sheen and a faint hint of danger.

Orb of Life?

Xia Chen recognized at a glance this elf prop, which was more commonly used in both the game of the previous life and the professional competition of the current life.

In the game, the effect of carrying a Life Orb in a battle is [each time a move is cast, it will increase the power of the move by 30%, but the side effect is that 10% of the health will be deducted].

In reality, the effect is also very similar, that is, the deducted health points become physical strength.

It's just that similar to those evolution stones and attribute gems, the effect of the Life Orb will also be slightly different depending on its own quality.

Poor quality, high physical strength, less power, high quality is naturally the opposite.

And looking at the color of this life orb, if it weren't for the fluorescent agent smeared on the surface, it would definitely be a top-quality life orb, estimated to be worth at least two or three million.

I don't think a big man like Vladali would do such a tasteless thing.

Xia Chen sighed twice, he was really willing...

If every box is full of elf props of this level, it means that you will directly prostitute tens of millions of top-level resources for nothing!

Although there is a gold mine of beautiful energy cubes to be tapped, tens of millions may be nothing to the future self, but the white prostitute is still happy after all.

However, the prop of the Orb of Life can theoretically be used by every elf of his own, and Xia Chen is not in a hurry to distribute it now, so he will open the other boxes first.

Happily putting things away and putting them aside, Xia Chen looked at Xianbu.

Senbu was also a little surprised by Vladali's generosity, and curiously pressed the button with silk to open the second box.

Placed in it was a mysterious droplet.

Judging from the appearance, the same top quality, the same generosity, and even the mysterious water droplets with the nature of cultivation are worth a step higher than the life orb used in simple combat.

There's nothing to say about this, there is only one water spirit in the team, Menas, which Vladali tailor-made for him.

Xia Chen put the box in front of Menas, "Now, this is for you, just absorb it as an ordinary attribute gem." ”

Although it is a bit tyrannical, Xia Chen is not distressed when he uses the windfall.

However, Menas's expression looked a little strange, and he replied shallowly, "Uhh

Xia Chen thought that he thought it was too wasteful, and comforted: "It's okay, this is nothing, there will be better ones in the future!" ”

Menas: "......"

He just wanted to say that Gaioca's Sea Tide Incense and Palkia's Dragon's Tooth hadn't absorbed a fifth of it yet...

Having said that, Menas finally nodded in agreement.

Think of it as a pre-dinner appetizer...

…………

The contents of the next two boxes are about the same value as the first two.

They are the [Leftover Stuff] items that correspond to the [Leftover Stuff] that can recover one-sixteenth of the game's HP at the end of each turn, and the [Healing Stone].

and the [Black Glasses], an elf item that corresponds to the [Black Glasses], which can increase the power of evil attribute moves by 20%.

Obviously, the latter is also specially prepared for Zoroa, but Zoroa, who has become a ghost elf, may not be blessed.

Adhering to the principle of a bowl of water being even, Xia Chen proposed: "Why don't I go back and sell it and replace it with a [Ghost Charm] for you to use?" ”

"Young~"

Zoroa happily agreed to Xia Chen's plan.

Although like Menas, she also doesn't care much about this thing, but she cares about Xia Chen's attitude of not being too troublesome.

Then, only the last one remained, Xia Chen looked at the smallest box in front of Zoroya.

The first four are all elf props, and the last one should be something that Vladali gave to himself.

Xia Chen's eyes were full of anticipation, "Open it, Zoroa." ”

"Young~"

Zoroa gently pressed the button, and the lid popped open, revealing the contents inside.

Xia Chen sighed lightly, but what was placed inside was a key. There is also a note under the key.

"The next time you come to Carlos, be sure to pay a visit to Shixiang Town, this key will surprise you."

Looking at this note, Xia Chen fell into deep thought.

Shixiang Town...

Isn't that the most important secret base of the Flashfire Team, and at the same time the final weapon?

What does this key turn on?

And what does Vladali want to show himself?

Xia Chen was a little confused, but what he could be sure of was that Vladali wanted to develop himself into a core member of the Flash Team.

After all, he should be the human who has the closest contact with those two legendary elves in this world.

But next time you come back to Carlos... Xia Chen smiled in his heart, then you can wait slowly.

But even if you put aside this inexplicable key, several other things that Vladali gave him are worth more than 10 million.

Just as a gift, it's completely over-spec treatment.

This not only shows the importance he attaches to himself, but also shows the ambition of the Flash Team, and their goal is indeed already eyeing those two divine beasts.

Xia Chen didn't want to get involved in this level of things, at least at his current stage of strength.

As for what the future holds... Who knows?

Outside the window, the bustling city of Miare is brightly lit and neon.

Xia Chen sat in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, quietly enjoying the last night in the Carlos region with the elves.

…………

On May 1st, spring is in full swing.

In the previous life, this day belonged to the festival of laborers, but there is no such thing in this world.

But this year's May Day is still somewhat commemorative for the Carlos people.

The Carlos Alliance announced three days ago that on May 1, Chachen, who had made a great contribution to peace in the Carlos region, would be awarded the highest honor, the Order of Miare.

This is the seventh Order of Miare, awarded by the Carlos League in more than 300 years since the end of the imperial system and the rise of the Union system.

Xia Chen was also the first Gentile to receive this honor, and the first non-champion medal holder.

Ten o'clock in the morning, the top of the Prism Tower.

Facing media reporters from all over the world, Xia Chen shook hands with the president of the Carlos Alliance with a smile from the elves, leaving the last photo in the Carlos area.
