Xu Tong wanted to say something more, but when he opened his mouth again, he suddenly woke up.
Looking at the crystal ball in front of him, Xu Tong couldn't tell whether it was a dream or an illusion.
I just felt like my other hand was holding something. When I opened my hand, I found it was a letter.
"Is this a letter from a fool?"
"Did I really go down to the underworld just now??"
Just when Xu Tong was at a loss, the old lady in front of him was already looking at him with a smile; "Young man, I feel that my psychic ritual has touched the blind spot of your soul. Ahem, now is the time for you to pay!
"
Upon hearing this, Xu Tong temporarily put the letter in his hand into the prop book, and then took a look at the powder that had been burned in the charcoal fire.
"How much?"
"Infinite Heavenly Lord, monks don't talk about money, they talk about fate. Whatever you give is fate. Of course, the more you give, the greater the fate and the stronger your blessings will be."
If it weren't for the fact that the old lady had a gypsy face, Xu Tong would really doubt that he was in front of an old nun.
But Xu Tong believed one thing. This was definitely an auditor who had studied in China.
After thinking for a moment, Xu Tong took out 10,000 script points and directly traded it to the other party.
Seeing Xu Tong's generosity, the old lady smiled so much that her mouth almost turned into a gourd. She quickly took out the amulet she made and planned to let Xu Tong choose one.
But Xu Tong pointed to the box in her hand: "What's in that??"
Xu Tong didn't know whether the old lady had powerful magical powers, but he was certain that the so-called psychic ritual was pure nonsense.
He had never seen anyone reciting the Analects of Confucius and sending their soul to the underworld, so the problem must be with these burning powders.
"this……"
Seeing Xu Tong asking, the old lady hesitated for a moment, but considering that the other party was a big customer, she still said: "This is rhinoceros incense, a very precious magic material. It comes from... Hey, you pick an amulet and go."
ah!"
Before the old lady finished speaking, Xu Tong had already walked out of the tent.
"So that's it!"
Xu Tong already understood how he fell into the netherworld.
As the saying goes, don't dare to burn a raw rhinoceros. If it is burned, it will smell strange and stick to your clothes and belts, and people can communicate with ghosts.
This old lady doesn't know where she learned it from, and relies on this skill to fool around with people, eat and drink.
Then he opened the fool's letter to himself, and there were still two paintings in the letter.
The first painting is very abstract. It shows the door of Yama Palace being opened, but there is no Yama sitting inside.
The empty hall didn't even have a ghost.
The second half of the painting is the Eighteen Hells, where countless evil spirits have lost their suppression and seem to be desperately struggling to escape.
The twisting lines on it make the painting come alive, and the vermilion flames are twisting as if they are turning Hades into gold.
From the depths of the flames, a hand slowly stretched out vaguely, making people feel scalp numb just by looking at it.
"It's a painting again? What on earth do you want to tell me?"
"Why is Hades empty, where are the kings of hell? Where are there so many gods of Hades??"
Just when Xu Tong was confused, he opened the next painting. Compared with the previous painting, the images in this painting looked very monotonous.
A majestic giant mountain stands on the earth like a pillar supporting the sky, but the mountain seems to be shrouded in a thick haze, disappearing bit by bit in the portrait.
"It's Youshan!"
Xu Tong recognized that this mountain was the Youshan where Lord Mingtu lived.
He once climbed to the top of the Youshan Mountain and looked around the land of the Underworld. This mountain was like the sea-fixing needle of the Underworld, suppressing many ghosts and gods on the Underworld, but now, the mountain was disappearing little by little.
Thinking of what his wife once said, Xu Tong couldn't help but have a conjecture in his mind.
"All the problems are in Youshan. Could it be that something went wrong with the Lord of the Palace, causing the entire underworld to be leaderless??"
When Xu Tong thought about it, he felt that something was wrong. The Lord of the Palace was basically a hands-off shopkeeper. When he was not here, there were still the two great elders, Emperor Fengdu and Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, suppressing him. There were also Five Ghost Emperors sitting down below, which shouldn't be the case.
What kind of big wave should we make?
After thinking for a moment, he couldn't think of a reason, so Xu Tong simply stopped thinking about it and planned to wait until the event was over to go to the Netherworld himself to see what was going on.
"Teleportation array, group teleportation array, sell it cheaply!"
At this time, a cry of hawking came from the street, and the crowd was also moving towards the hawking sound.
The teleportation array is a good thing. It can not only teleport items, but also people. If used well, it is very valuable.
But a good teleportation array is not so easy to get.
It is said that players with alchemy and warlock talents are required to make it, and it is expensive. Average players are not qualified to touch this skill.
Xu Tong heard the words and joined in, but as soon as he walked to the stall, before he had time to take a closer look, he heard someone scolding: "Trash, this thing deserves to be called a teleportation array, you despicable, shameless and dirty liar!"
"I...I...what I made is a teleportation array, but the specifications are a little smaller!"
The stall owner lowered his head after being scolded and reluctantly explained.
"Are you lying? What the hell is there with the 20% chance of success?? You can't do it 100%, you son of a bitch, how dare you say this is a teleportation array??"
As soon as everyone took a look at the entry, there were more and more curses.
The stall owner was so scolded that he couldn't hold his head up. He could only continue in a very low voice: "This is a teleportation array, a new type of teleportation array. Although these are not very successful, they can still be tried.
It has many advantages..."
"You shameless liar, a 20% success rate, the remaining 80% is equivalent to murder. No one dares to bear the consequences of failed teleportation. Just teleport to other places, but if you just teleport a part of yourself
Are you leaving??”
The biggest problem with the teleportation array is its stability.
Otherwise, if the teleportation fails, the end result will often be a very ridiculous death. For example, if your head teleports away, what should you do if your body does not teleport away?
This kind of case is not new. There was once a player who created a teleportation array. After activating the teleportation, the person was still standing in the same place, but all the organs on his body disappeared.
Therefore, it must achieve a 100% probability of success before it can be called a qualified teleportation array.
However, the cost of such a teleportation array is almost tens of millions, and the core technology is basically monopolized by a few super teams such as the Temple, and is not intended to be shared with ordinary players.
The stall owner in front of me has devised a new transmission method, which is more labor-intensive and less material-consuming than the traditional transmission array. Most importantly, this method saves space.
The stronger the traditional teleportation array, the larger the space required. For group teleportation, based on 15 people, the teleportation array must occupy at least 300 square meters.
But the teleportation array created by this stall owner only needs to place one teleportation beacon on the ground to complete the teleportation. If there are more people teleporting, you can place a few more beacons.
But it may be that the method is too new and many aspects have not been sufficiently improved, resulting in a success rate of only 20%.
Seeing the people's curses getting louder and louder, the stall owner could only prepare to pack up his things and leave.
"etc!"
At this time, Xu Tong stopped him: "I am very interested in these gadgets of yours, can we have a chat?"
When he heard that someone was interested in his work, the stall owner's eyes suddenly lit up and he nodded repeatedly: "Of course!"
Xu Tong stood up and looked around. When he saw the lunch hall not far away, he invited him to have lunch together.
As soon as the two sat down, the other party quickly introduced his product.
Xu Tong took his order calmly.
After ordering a table of food, the other party stopped talking and just started eating.
While eating, Xu Tong asked casually what to call him. Maybe it was because the food was so delicious, and the other party didn't have any precautions, so he naturally said: "Master."
After he finished speaking, he paused: "Master Orff."
Xu Tong then picked up a road sign and took a look at it in the prop book.
[Teleport Beacon]
(20%)Success rate
Teleportation can be carried out at any location where the beacon is located, or it can be set to one-way transmission.
For each teleportation, the required script points will be calculated based on the teleportation object.
Cooling time: 30 seconds.
(Note: It is undeniable that this is a genius work, but I do not recommend you to use it.)
Looking at the props book, Xu Tong gave his own advice, but he felt that this thing was what he was looking for.
However, compared to these gadgets, Xu Tong is more concerned about the player in front of him: "Making a teleportation array is a very expensive thing. Are you interested in joining my team?"
Facing the olive branch extended by Xu Tong, the other party was not surprised. He just asked: "Is your team rich?"
This kind of question is like going to a company for an interview and directly asking the company how much money you can offer me.
If it is a powerful company, it will proudly tell you the benefits it can provide. If it is a rubbish company, it will just take out a bunch of so-called benefits and give you a more reliable one.
integer.
Xu Tong did not rush to answer, but asked: "How much money do you need?"
"A lot!" Master said seriously.
It’s not that he doesn’t have a team, and there are also people who want to be his boss.
But almost no team can tolerate his gold-burning hole. The cost of each research is calculated in millions of script points. The key is that his combat effectiveness is still low and he will not be of any help in the script world.
If that was all, forget it, after all, he was considered a genius, but in the end, the finished product he came up with was really... to say it was horrific would be putting it mildly.
Just like these beacon teleportation arrays, the 20% success probability is simply murder. Even those super teams in the West are not willing to accept this bottomless pit of burning gold.

Because they had already asked experts to discuss Master's creation, and the conclusion was that it was a new method, but it was definitely a failed plan.
If the success rate is increased by one percent, the research cost required will be at least tens of millions of script points.
And it may not be successful, and the money burned in the future will be even more terrifying.
Tens of millions of script points are enough to build a complete teleportation array, but it can only increase the success rate by one percent, which is really not cost-effective.
After Xu Tong thought for a while, he directly sent Master an invitation to join the team: "I can pay you at least two million script points per quarter, as long as your research results improve, even if it is only 1%
The success rate will be doubled, and the funds will be doubled along with it, but the price is that you must stay at the exhibition forever!"
“Staying at the show forever?”
Master may not have understood what Xu Tong meant for the moment, but he soon realized something and fell silent for a moment.
The so-called staying at the exhibition forever means giving up the identity of a player and being designated as a service provider in a certain industry.
When Xu Tong founded Laojunfang, he was reminded that it could accommodate eight clerks and one partner.
Of course Xu Tong does not intend to take Master, who is a scumbag, into the dungeon, but if he can accept this condition, Xu Tong is also happy to try to make this investment.
Because Laojunfang is not short of money, it is short of real talents. What's more, if the success rate can be improved after the beacons are strengthened, then Xu Tong will also make money just by selling the beacons.
Xu Tong would never miss such a good deal.
What? What if the landmark strengthening is unsuccessful or the cost is too high?
This is a risk that Xu Tong wants to gamble on. Perhaps a safer way is to buy the beacon first and then make a decision after strengthening it.
But can he still find Master in this way, or will someone take him away first?
It is precisely because of this uncertainty that Xu Tong took the lead in proposing the method of bringing people into the team.
Those who achieve great things don't have so many inconsiderate thoughts. Those who seek perfection in everything will not be able to eat hot shit in the end.
