A clang!
As the small hammer struck, the remaining thin layer of stone shell wrapping the mysterious metal ball shattered.
The small metal ball with silvery white luster rolled down to the floor.
Tang Songyuan felt joyful in his heart, and a light flashed in his eyes. He couldn't wait to stretch out his palm and grab the ball on the ground.
In a nervous and expectant mood, Tang Songyuan's fingertips touched the metal ball and then grabbed it in his hand.
wrong!
Although he caught the ball in his hand, Tang Songyuan instinctively felt that something was wrong.
In the past, it was directly integrated into the palm of the hand, and then gained abilities or evolved, but now it is not, but actually caught in the hand.
Tang Songyuan couldn't help but open up his perspective and carefully examined the metal ball in his hand. The answer he got was still unknown.
Not even a basic introduction...
He squatted on the ground, holding a small metal ball in one hand, and scratched his head with the other hand in discomfort.
Don't understand what's going on.
This small ball, both in style and unknown properties, is exactly the same as the previous two, but it just can't be integrated into the body.
In addition, he has no clue about the mechanism by which the ball acquires extraordinary abilities and upgrades.
The last time he touched the metal ball, he succeeded in one attempt. This time, the metal ball was held in his hand, but it felt weightless, light and unresponsive.
Is it possible to find someone to give it a try?
no!
This thing cannot be easily known to the outside world, not even the closest people.
After researching for a long time, I still have no clue.
Tang Songyuan simply put the metal ball away, put it in the inner pocket of his coat, and opened the door.
"Hey, brother, didn't you say you wanted to rest? Why did you come out so soon?"
Wei Qing was still playing with the tablet and asked without raising her head.
Tang Songyuan raised his eyebrows and said, "I'm hungry. Find something to eat before going to sleep."
With that said, he walked to the kitchen, dug out some ingredients from the refrigerator, and started making dinner.
Suddenly, Wei Qing came up behind him, coughed slightly and said, "Brother, can you send me some money via WeChat?"
Tang Songyuan buried his head in picking vegetables and said, "How much do you want? What are you using it for?"
Generally speaking, he would give Wei Qing pocket money on a regular basis, but sometimes he would give it in cash.
Wei Qing chuckled and said, "I want to buy some game skins, but the original skins don't feel that way..."
Tang Songyuan frowned slightly. He wasn't too interested in virtual game skins, but he didn't object to them. As long as Wei Qing spent rationally within his ability, he didn't bother to care.
Seeing him frowning, Wei Qing quickly explained: "Actually, there are also free skins, but you need to collect crystals. You can redeem them after collecting a certain number of crystals, but some rare ones still require krypton gold to redeem... ."
Her voice was weak and she seemed a little guilty.
But when Tang, Song and Yuan heard it, they had other considerations.
Yes!
The first upgrade of the clairvoyance ability cost a mysterious metal ball.
After upgrading for the second time, the ability may be even more powerful. One small metal ball may not be enough, maybe two or even more are needed.
Maybe when I find a way to find another one, I can trigger the upgrade.
Or some other unknown conditions are needed, but I haven’t figured it out yet.
Thinking of this, Tang Songyuan was in a good mood. He turned back to look at Wei Qing and said, "How many do you want?"
"Five hundred...well, two hundred is enough!" Wei Qing said hurriedly.
Tang Songyuan took out his mobile phone, transferred a thousand yuan to her, and said:
"In terms of money, as a brother, I will never be short of you. As long as you are rational and have reasonable consumption needs, I will support you."
"When you go to college in the future, you will have more places to spend money."
"And the only thing I ask of you is to have your own concept of consumption,"
“Don’t belittle yourself and feel inferior to others, and don’t blindly compare and spend impulsively.”
Wei Qing clicked on the mobile phone to collect money and said with a smile: "I know, brother, you are the best!"
Looking at her running away happily, Tang Songyuan warned again: "Have you decided which university you want to apply to? Don't just do it every day!"
"Know it!"
After dinner, night falls.
Tang Songyuan finished washing and lay on the bed, playing with the metal ball he had just received, thinking about how to store it.
He didn't feel comfortable leaving it at home.
This is a rented house, who knows if the landlord keeps the key.
Or if there is a thief or something, it is possible.
This thing was hard to come by, and he would regret it if anything went wrong.
If he builds a house in the future, he must build a solid warehouse that cannot be blown open even with explosives.
Or make a pendant similar to a bell and wear it?
It doesn't seem to fit well. It's too obvious when worn, and it's easy for people to notice it.
After thinking about it, he felt that it would be safer to put it in the bank. At least the risk of the bank being robbed was not that great.
I'm going to find out tomorrow whether any bank in Ruili has a safe deposit box service.
Early the next morning.
Tang Songyuan found a small box and put the metal ball in with a lot of paper towels.
The branches of the four major banks in Ruili all have safe storage services. Tang, Song and Yuan chose ICBC.
It took an hour to handle the storage business at the bank. Tang Songyuan chose the smallest box, and the annuity was only 300 yuan.
Moreover, it is bound to his bank card and will be automatically renewed without having to worry about expiration.
After coming out of the bank, he went to the driving school to practice the test items of subject three.
After practicing for a few laps, the coach said:
"Your skills are fine. You can make an appointment for the test. If you pass Subject 4, you can get your driver's license..."
This is not because the test items are not difficult, but because Tang Songyuan was strengthened by the metal balls, his reaction speed was far faster than ordinary people.
Coupled with his diligent martial arts practice, driving and operating a car is really not too easy for him.
After thanking the coach and making an appointment for the test through his mobile phone, Tang Songyuan walked out of the gate of the driving school, only to see Ni Dehong parked there in his Mercedes-Benz Big G.
Seeing Tang Songyuan come out, Ni Dehong sat in the driver's seat and waved to him.
Ni Dehong wore a light plaid shirt and sunglasses, looking fashionable and trendy.
"Master, why are you here?"
Tang Songyuan jogged a few steps, opened the car door and got into the passenger seat, fastened his seat belt and asked.
Ni Dehong started the car and said as he drove forward:
"An old friend invited me to go to Pagan. Are you interested in going with him?"
