Chapter 5621 Unboxing of Spiritual Stones
The snatching of the heavenly things started suddenly, and the competition became fierce.
But it didn’t take long for the Lost City to gradually become quiet.
The lost people who participated in the robbery returned to their respective gathering places to take stock of the specific gains this time.
On the streets and alleys of the city, corpses are left one after another, all victims of the robbery.
Some bodies will be collected and buried hastily, and some will become food for wild animals.
Or they may be dragged by ropes by aliens, buried in the ice and snow, and refrigerated to be used as daily food reserves.
Tang Zhen counted the harvest and obtained nearly a thousand spiritual stones, twenty-five colored boxes, and more than a hundred ordinary boxes.
With so many boxes of spiritual stones, if they are handed over to the gathering place, a considerable amount of wealth can be obtained.
But everyone knows that the actual value of the box and spirit stones far exceeds the purchase price given by the gathering place.
Even though they know they will suffer losses, they still have to trade. This is the helplessness of ordinary lost people.
Surviving in the Lost City is inherently difficult, and you have to make some compromises and sacrifices.
The items in Tang Zhen's hands had no intention of selling them, but were intended to be used and opened by himself.
If the people in power at the gathering place have any opinions on this, they can feel free to come to Tang Zhen to discuss it.
Tang Zhen will not back down at all when it comes to convincing people with force.
At this moment, Lao Mao and others were looking at the box on the ground expectantly, waiting for Tang Zhen to open it.
They have all heard about the scene of opening the box, but no one has seen it with their own eyes.
People who can do this kind of thing are the people in power in the gathering place. Opening boxes is a kind of gambling for them, and it is also a very exciting entertainment activity.
Ordinary survivors are not qualified to participate in such special fun.
The most anticipated thing is about to happen before our eyes, and Lao Mao and others will definitely be very excited.
Tang Zhen took a black box, took out a spiritual stone, and placed it on the eye of the box.
The eye suddenly emitted light when it touched the spirit stone, and then the box disappeared out of thin air in front of everyone.
A strange item appeared in front of everyone. It seemed to be made of metal.
“What is this?”
Everyone was puzzled and couldn’t figure out what was being prescribed, but they knew from the looks of it that it shouldn’t be of much value.
Although metal is very precious, compared with boxes and spiritual stones, it is simply a world of difference.
It is recognized that black and white boxes cannot produce good things.
Tang Zhen reached out and picked up the item, and a message emerged in his mind, telling him the purpose of the item.
“This is a machine part. If you can put the other parts together, you can get a complete machine.”
Tang Zhen told Lao Mao and others the information he obtained. people, satisfying their curiosity.
"What kind of machine is that? How many parts does it have in total?"
The old cat asked, his curiosity still unsatisfied and wanting to know more information.
Tang Zhen shook his head and said that there was no prompt in this regard. After gathering enough parts, he might be able to get more detailed prompt information.
If an ordinary lost person uses a spirit stone and a box to open this kind of thing, it will definitely be a failed gamble that will result in vomiting blood.
In order to make up for the losses, the parts can only be sold as scrap metal, or burned to create various weapons.
Only a strong gathering place can store the parts and slowly put together a complete set.
A complete machine will increase its value a hundred times.
Tang Zhen didn't have any expectations for the finished machine, and he didn't expect anything less than this piece of scrap metal.
Throw the things to the old cat and let him arrange them, and then take out a colorful box.
If you open a colored box, one spirit stone is not enough at all. Instead, you need to place spirit stones of corresponding colors according to the colors on the box.
There are two types of colored boxes, one is a solid color box, which is relatively rare, and the other is a variegated box, which has a colorful appearance.
To open a solid-color box, you need to use six spiritual stones of the same color. If you want to open a mixed-color box, you must collect spiritual stones according to the color of the box.
According to this rule analysis, solid color boxes should have the highest value.
Compared with the black and white boxes, the investment in the colored boxes is greater, and you have the chance to get more good things. But if you can't satisfy yourself with something you open, you're basically at a semi-loss.
If it can be sold to others, it can make up for the loss and even have a chance to make a fortune.
According to Tang Zhen's speculation, there must be special trading channels in the circle of senior leaders in the gathering place.
Trade with each other and take out some unused things in exchange for items that are useful to you.
Such a trading circle will definitely not be made public, and ordinary lost people will not have access to it.
Tang Zhen took out a few spiritual stones and placed them on the box. This time, colorful brilliance erupted.
It's as bright as fireworks and looks very cool.
The focus of everyone's attention is still on the items inside the box, wanting to know what kind of good things can be found.
This is a colorful box, which is valuable in itself. In addition to the spiritual stones consumed to open it, the cost is not ordinary high.
After the colorful light, something appeared in front of everyone. It turned out to be a patterned steel knife about two feet long.
On the blade of this knife, there are wavy lines that flash with green fluorescence visible to the naked eye.
From the colorful box, a long knife was opened, which was indeed a bit unexpected.
But looking at the appearance of the long sword, you can tell that the quality is extraordinary, and it is definitely not an ordinary iron sword.
Tang Zhen picked up the knife and related information poured into his mind.
It turns out that this is a poisonous blade, with deadly radiation metal integrated into the blade. Once the body is injured by this knife, the terrible poison is enough to kill a person.
Even if you don't die at the time, you will suffer a lot later and eventually die slowly in pain.
In the expectant eyes of everyone, Tang Zhen explained the properties of the radiation poison blade, which caused everyone to sigh.
For low-level lost people, such a weapon is high-end enough and far more valuable than an ordinary sword.
After all, deadly murderous poison cannot be obtained anytime and anywhere. Even if it can be purchased, it will cost a lot of money.
The dangerous operation of quenching poison requires a certain amount of experience and skills, and not everyone can do it easily.
During the poison quenching operation, once a mistake is made, it is very likely that one will be poisoned.
Failure to rescue in time may result in loss of life.
Now that there is a long knife that can be used without quenching it, it must be a good thing.
Seeing the heat in everyone's eyes, Tang Zhen chuckled and threw the knife directly to Lao Mao.
"If you like it, keep it, but you must be careful not to hurt yourself."
The radiation poison blade is very dangerous. When it hurts others, it may also hurt yourself. But when killing people, it is dangerous. Unfortunately, it is quite difficult to detoxify.
If you are not careful, it may cost you your life.
Hearing this, the old cat was extremely happy and carefully put away the radiation poison blade.
When Tang Zhen saw this, he shook his head secretly.
This kind of weapon obtained from colorful boxes and loved by the lost is nothing more than that in Tang Zhen's eyes.
If there are enough materials, similar weapons can be mass-produced.
Using such a huge cost to exchange for a radiation poison blade was a loss in Tang Zhen's opinion.
The lost people will think they are making a profit, just because they do not understand the technology of refining weapons, and they may not be able to buy such good things even if they have money.
At this moment, Tang Zhen lost interest in opening the box. Instead of opening it himself, it would be better to use it to earn more wealth.
Just like betting on stones, if you are lucky, you will get good things, but if you are not lucky, you will get a lot of junk.
But seeing the expectant looks in the eyes of Lao Mao and others, he still picked out a solid color box and placed a bunch of spiritual stones on it.
After the light flashed, everyone looked at it at the same time, only to find that it was just a piece of torn paper.
“Alas!”
Everyone sighed in unison, feeling that this wave of blood was a loss.
Tang Zhen's eyes lit up, he took the torn paper in his hand and looked at it, with a bright smile on his face.
