Chapter 202 His Eyes
Chapter 202 His Eyes
……
"...Is this really the only place to cultivate?" A-Yun transformed again, clinging tightly to the door frame with one hand, blocking Li Can's steps.
Li Can removed his fingers one by one from the door. "There's no better environment than here. Trust me."
"I've already taken you all over Upper Horizon City. Changing places now would just mean rushing to other areas, which isn't worth it."
"You can stay here for a while and I'll take you there once I find what you're looking for."
This was utterly upside down. Li Can never imagined that one day he would have to coax A-Yun, who was so old, like a child.
"Then...you have to hurry, I'll wait for you here."
"Okay." Li Can nodded vigorously.
"Bang!"
With the door to the five-star hotel room closed from the outside, Li Can finally sent A Yun to her secluded retreat.
Li Can slipped away without hesitation, and after closing the door, jumped out of the window down the corridor.
A giant puppet vulture was hovering high in the sky, waiting for him.
A man and a bird, seemingly followed by a ghost, flew far away in the blink of an eye.
"There are still seven days before A-Yun's clone imparts the laws. Fortunately, I can take advantage of this time to properly handle the matters at hand."
Li Can sat cross-legged on the vulture's back, seemingly flying forward aimlessly.
In fact, he was moving towards Icefield City.
At this time of year, only there can you find the snow that A-Yun wants.
Li Can was able to travel and attend to his own business without delaying either.
It also provides a good opportunity to observe the conditions of the provinces and cities along the way.
As for why he didn't just bring A-Yun along, it's because he was really in a hurry. A-Yun's recovery was related to the future direction of the entire Destiny Collective.
Li Can couldn't possibly waste his limited time fooling around with him.
The vultures flew very fast, and high in the sky, Li Can felt the whistling wind rustling in his ears.
His clothes and hair were being blown backward by the strong wind.
But he didn't feel cold.
Instead, he felt more relaxed and carefree, a sense of ease and freedom. He was extremely comfortable at that moment.
"Well then, let's go through all the dungeon rewards and collect them first. We've been delayed for too long..." Li Can muttered to himself.
His attention was completely diverted after the sphere was created, and it's only now that it's back.
Li Can controlled the energy surging in his palm, where eager dungeon reward items were hidden, waiting for him to relax his control so they would appear one by one.
His eyes
[SSS-rank dungeon completion reward: "What kind of eyes are those? The left is innocence, the right is vicissitude; they are both a manifestation of status and an illusion that sees into people's hearts. Have you ever seen his eyes?"]
The application method is similar to wearing colored contact lenses; once you put them on, you'll see a different world.
"His eyes?" Li Can frowned, his collar fluttering in the wind.
He had only ever seen heterochromatic eyes on mobs in dungeons.
The description still uses "he".
The direction is very clear.
After thinking for a moment, Li Can opened the wooden box floating in the air in front of him. Inside the white ceramic jar was an unknown solution, and within it, a pair of eyes were staring at him intently.
It appears to be sentient, unlike an ordinary inanimate object.
"What does this have to do with contact lenses...?" Li Can felt a chill run down her spine at this abrupt turn of events.
This is just like the supernatural events that occur in horror movies.
He was initially reluctant to accept this item, but considering it was a reward from an SSS-level dungeon and certainly not an ordinary item, Li Can gritted his teeth and grabbed the pair of eyes from the container with his hands.
He fiddled with it, trying to see how it would work, but it turned out he didn't even have to lift a finger.
A pair of eyes of different colors, with tendrils and tentacles seemingly growing from their tips, hopping and climbing up Li Can's chest to his neck, then to his chin, and finally reaching his eye sockets.
They automatically adjusted their position and angle, using their tentacles and limbs to pry open Li Can's upper and lower eyelids, and then suddenly "jumped" into his eye sockets.
"Hiss..." Li Can felt a sudden, icy pain in his eyeball.
Next comes the free rotation of the eyes.
Li Can can control the eyes in her current eye sockets, changing between two sides.
When he closed his eyes and then opened them again, they revealed heterochromatic pupils.
The left side appears as a light amber color under sunlight, while the right side is light blue.
"There's nothing special about it..." Li Can looked around but still couldn't figure out how to use the eyeballs.
"Forget it, let's study it properly after we're all done with everything else. There's no rush."
After convincing himself, Li Can closed his eyes again, controlling them from behind the scenes. When he opened them again, his pupils had returned to their original shape.
Business as usual.
"How different can a different world be..." Although Li Can hadn't actually experienced it firsthand, she still had some expectations for it in her heart.
"Next one."
He raised his palm and released the new dungeon rewards.
I want to have a conversation with you all on that day, without any barriers.
[SSS-level dungeon completion reward: Since that day, I have been looking for a way to talk to you in real time, but every time I can only use sleep to get the chance.]
At that time, I wondered if the outcome would have been different if I could have had a smooth conversation with you all that day?
A vintage-style painted mobile phone floated in Li Can's palm.
However, upon closer inspection, it is not as simple as it appears on the surface.
The dial pad on this landline phone is made up of holes, each containing a different colored fountain pen.
Li Can reached out to touch it, and immediately felt a tingling sensation in his fingertips, as if he had been electrocuted. The true way to use this landline phone immediately came to mind.
He no longer needed to explore freely; the answer was clearly given to him.
"So it's a medium for real-time telepathic communication... But if I want this thing to be useful, as its owner, I'll have to give these 'pens' away to other people..."
"If we had driven them out earlier, we could have sent them away on the spot, and let Lao Wang and Li Lan each take one back."
"With this, why would we need encrypted group chat communication?"
"I just don't know if this thing can ignore the timeline like it can eavesdrop on hairs. Hmm... it's hard to say. After all, it's a product of the dungeon, and it's different from a gacha machine."
After thinking for a moment, Li Can simply put the item away and placed it in the inventory that appeared in his mind specifically for storing dungeon reward items.
Currently, the items from gashapon machines and the items obtained from dungeons seem to have similar functions, but there are actually fundamental differences between them.
Ultimately, it all boils down to a problem of hierarchical suppression.
