"This Companion Beast's name is Skygod Crane. It was placed here by Epic expert Lu Jiuyun. This Skygod Crane is extremely fast, and its Life Providence and Life Soul are very good …" Qin Xiyuan held Zhou Wen's hand and warmly introduced the Companion Beasts on the fourth level to him.
Zhou Wen found it odd. He was clearly here to buy Speed Crystals, so why was Qin Xiyuan introducing these Companion Beasts to him?
Zhou Wen wanted to emphasize his intentions a few times, but he couldn't find a chance to interject.
In fact, Ouyang Lan had already told Zhou Wen about the Companion Beasts here the last time she brought him here. However, with Qin Xiyuan's enthusiasm, Zhou Wen could only patiently listen.
Unknowingly, the two of them arrived at the room with the locked silver-haired Companion Beast. After entering the room, Qin Xiyuan suddenly said to Zhou Wen, "Zhou Wen, do you know that you are in danger now?"
"Old Master Qin, what do you mean?" Zhou Wen looked at Qin Xiyuan in puzzlement.
Qin Xiyuan looked outside and saw that Ah Sheng was still guarding the entrance to the fourth level. He whispered to Zhou Wen, "Everyone in Luoyang City knows that Little Lan has married another man, but they don't know much about that man. At most, they know that his surname is Zhou. It's impossible for them to know that he has a son named Zhou Wen."
"Then how do you know about me?" Zhou Wen asked Qin Xiyuan.
"It was Ouyang who told me. He said that he thinks highly of you and that you are very outstanding. If possible, he hopes that you can take over his job in the future," Qin Xiyuan said.
"What job?" Zhou Wen looked at Qin Xiyuan blankly.
Qin Xiyuan said with a bitter smile, "Ouyang is still so cautious. He thinks so highly of you, but he didn't tell you anything?"
"The former principal did praise me for my talent, but that was just a casual remark. It can't be taken seriously." Zhou Wen paused and looked at Qin Xiyuan. "Old Master Qin, isn't the former principal a history researcher? I'm not familiar with this area, nor do I have much interest in it. You must have heard wrongly when the former principal asked me to take over his job, right? "
"It can't be wrong. Ouyang gave you the password, right? Do you see the metal block over there? Enter the password. The things inside were left for you by Ouyang. They should be of some help to you, "Qin Xiyuan said as he pointed behind the silver-haired Companion Beast.
The item he was referring to was the metal block with the anchor pattern engraved on it. The last time Zhou Wen came, he had seen the numbers on it and guessed that it was a password lock. He never expected it to be true.
Old Master Qin, what password did you say? Zhou Wen thought to himself, but he didn't show it on his face. He pretended to be surprised and asked.
"Didn't Ouyang give you the password? That's bad. There are things he left for you inside. You can't open it without the password. All you can do is wait for him to return, "Qin Xiyuan said as he stared at Zhou Wen.
The old principal left something for me? He even asked me to take over his job. How come I've never heard him say that? I'll have to ask him when he returns, "Zhou Wen said.
"Ouyang really didn't tell you anything?" Qin Xiyuan asked in surprise.
"Back when the old principal was still in Guide High School, he often chatted with me, but he didn't say that he left anything for me. Also, what's with the danger you mentioned? "Zhou Wen asked Qin Xiyuan.
"The thing Ouyang left for you is very important. If others know that it's on you, it will definitely be disadvantageous to you. Therefore, you have to hide it well and not let anyone see it," Qin Xiyuan said with a serious expression.
"What's that?" The puzzlement on Zhou Wen's face wasn't faked. He really didn't know what the former principal had left for him.
"It's a good thing that you don't know anything. Forget it. Since Ouyang didn't tell you the details, let's wait for him to return. " Seeing that Zhou Wen didn't seem to be faking, Qin Xiyuan didn't say anything else. He led Zhou Wen out of the room with the silver-haired Companion Beast.
When Qin Xiyuan closed the door, Zhou Wen glanced at the silver-haired Companion Beast. Just like the last time he came, he was still sitting there with his head lowered. His long silver hair covered his face, making it impossible to see what he looked like.
However, Zhou Wen had a nagging feeling that behind the waterfall-like silver hair, there was a pair of eyes staring at him. Furthermore, they were smiling at him.
After leaving basement four, Qin Xiyuan got someone to give him a Speed Crystal that Zhou Wen needed. He gave him a very high discount and finally, Zhou Wen paid 138,000 yuan and finally obtained a 21-valued Speed Crystal.
On the way back, Zhou Wen's mind wasn't on the Speed Crystal.
Was the number on the name card really given to me by the former principal? Is that string of numbers really used to open the metal block? Zhou Wen had ten thousand questions in his mind as he felt that something was amiss.
Therefore, when Qin Xiyuan said those words, Zhou Wen pretended not to understand anything. In fact, he didn't really understand much.
Former principal, what's going on? Zhou Wen was filled with puzzlement.
After Zhou Wen left Xiyuan's shop, Qin Xiyuan sat in his office chair and used the mouse to click on the video. He constantly replayed the entire conversation between him and Zhou Wen.
After watching for a while, Qin Xiyuan muttered to himself, From the looks of it, I was overthinking things. This punk really doesn't know. Who did that old bastard, Ouyang, give the password to? He didn't even tell his biological daughter. Don't tell me that old bastard wants that thing to never see the light of day and be buried with him?
After returning to his dorm, Zhou Wen took out the 21-valued Speed Crystal and attempted to upload it into the game.
Directly absorbing a stat crystal that exceeded his level was very dangerous. Although Zhou Wen's body was strong, he wasn't willing to take the risk.
Furthermore, Zhou Wen was still somewhat worried. There was definitely a stat limit at the Legendary stage, but Zhou Wen didn't know what that limit was. Most people's limit was 18. His was clearly higher than the average person's, but Zhou Wen wasn't confident that he could reach 21 points.
The Speed Crystal successfully entered the game. When the blood-colored avatar touched the Speed Crystal, it immediately transformed into threads of light that fused into the blood-colored avatar's body. It made Zhou Wen feel as though there was a force in his body fusing into his muscles, making them stronger.
The blood-colored avatar's Speed stat quickly increased by one point, becoming 19. Not long after, it increased by another point, becoming 20.
However, even when the entire Speed Crystal was sucked dry by the blood-colored avatar, the Speed stat didn't continue increasing.
Zhou Wen's heart skipped a beat. He knew that what he was most worried about had happened. His Legendary stat limit was 20, so he couldn't raise his Speed to 21 points. Unless he advanced to the Epic stage, he wouldn't be able to learn the Dragon Gate Flying Immortal Skill.
