Zhang Feng walked into a bakery. The items in the shop looked very new, as if they had just opened.
However, perhaps because the owner was missing, there was no bread for sale.
After walking around for a while, Zhang Feng was surprised to find a square electronic clock. She immediately picked it up and found a line of prompts appearing in her field of vision.
[Do you want to consume one opportunity to extract time value? 】
【Yes or no? 】
"What does this mean? Extract time value?"
Zhang Feng scratched her head and couldn't understand the situation. After thinking about it, she decided to go to Zhang Ze to find out.
As soon as I ran out of the store, I happened to see Xiaoniaoyiren walking out of the clothing store next to her.
"Little bird, look I found an electronic clock!"
"I found it too." Xiaoniao Yiren shook a pocket watch and asked, "Then did you see a line of prompts?"
"Yes!" Zhang Feng nodded repeatedly and said, "What do you mean by extracting time value?"
"Literally, it means extracting time from items." Xiaoniaoyiren looked at the pocket watch in his hand and curled his lips and said: "The reminder said that it will consume one opportunity. I don't know how many opportunities there are in total, so I didn't dare to try. "
"Why don't we go ask everyone."
Later, the two returned to Shimen, and they found that Zhang Zehe was already standing here without emotion.
"elder brother!"
Zhang Feng ran to Zhang Ze and asked, "Brother, as soon as I touch this clock, it prompts me to extract the time value. Do you know what's going on?"
"Show me your clock."
Taking the electronic clock from his sister, Zhang Ze looked at the date displayed on it, then looked at the back of the electronic clock, and then gave it back to Zhang Feng.
"Try it yourself," he said. "After you try it, you'll understand."
"Oh..." Zhang Feng looked at the clock in his hand and chose [Yes].
[Successfully extracted 1 point of time value. 】
[Currently you have collected 1 point of time value. 】
[There are currently 9 withdrawal opportunities left. 】
After the extraction was completed, the clock in Zhang Feng's hand disappeared.
She suddenly woke up and said in surprise: "It turns out that we can really extract time from items!"
"But, what's the use of this 1 point of time value?"
She looked at Zhang Ze, who explained: "I have tried it with Fuqing just now. As long as the collected time value is stored in the stone gate, the number above its head will decrease."
"We estimate that when the numbers clear, we will be able to pass the level."
Zhang Feng looked at the number above the stone door. Sure enough, it changed from 10,000 to 9,998.
"I'll try too!"
She walked over and touched the stone door with her hand, and a prompt appeared.
【Do you want to save time value? 】
【Yes or no? 】
"yes!"
【Ding! Deposit successful! 】
Looking at the number again, it has become 9997.
"This is too easy!" Zhang Feng said with a happy smile: "We just need to collect enough time values. Brother, let's act quickly!"
"It's not that simple." He shook his head emotionlessly and said, "Didn't you notice? Each of us only has 9 chances. Once we use them up, we can't continue to extract them."
"And before we extract the time value, we don't know how much time value the items in our hands have."
"For example, the clock you held just now has a time value of 1 o'clock. If we collect it 10 times, it only has 10 o'clock."
"Even if the eleven of us put together, we still can't reach 10,000 time values."
He looked at the numbers above the stone door and said, "So, it is very important to choose an item with a high time value."
Xiaoniaoyiren frowned and said, "But we don't know what items have a high time value!"
"Yes, this is the key to the problem." Zhang Ze took over and said: "I just observed that the electronic clock Zhang Feng just found showed the date on November 4, 1981, and this electronic clock The clock’s manufacturing date is 1980.”
"The time difference is one year, which corresponds to 1 point of time value, so I judge that the time value should represent the time the item exists in this world."
Even without emotion, he nodded: "This judgment should be correct. The watch I found before is also the same."
Xiaoniao Yiren looked at her pocket watch and said, "My pocket watch seems to be older. It has 1975 engraved on it... If calculated according to the current time of 1981, the time value should be 6 o'clock."
She tried it, and sure enough, she extracted 6 points of time value.
Now, the mystery is solved. As long as you find the items that have existed for a long time, extract their time value, store them in the stone gate, and clear the numbers, you can complete the level.
"Hurry up and tell everyone this news, so as not to waste the opportunity, let everyone look for old items that are very old. The older the better!" Xiaoniaoyiren looked excited.
But Zhang Ze's brows still didn't open. He thought, is this level of demonic realm really that simple?
At this moment, they suddenly heard Liu Yueying shouting: "Come over and take a look!"
Zhang Ze immediately ran in the direction of Liu Yueying, and saw Liu Yueying standing in a corner, pointing to a few pieces of clothing scattered on the ground, and said, "Someone must have worn these clothes, but I don't know where they went."
Xiaoniao Yiren walked over, picked up a piece of clothing with a staff, looked at it, and said, "There are no blood stains on these clothes, and they don't look like they have been worn for a long time."
"Speaking of which, I remember that I also found a few pieces of clothing on the ground before, but I didn't pay attention to them at the time..." Shandao Bubu curled his lips and said, "Now it seems that there is something wrong with these clothes."
"The clothes are still there, but the person is gone?" Zhang Ze felt strange, and at the same time he also vaguely felt danger.
He always felt that besides them, there must be other people here, or... monsters!
Xiaoniaoyiren announced Zhang Ze's speculation on the team channel, and everyone immediately changed their targets and began searching for ancient items.
The little princess Qian had an idea and said: "I know about the things from the past!"
She picked up a stone from the ground and smiled at the Dragon King next to her: "The stone has existed since the birth of the world. It is old enough! Now I will extract its time value, maybe I can get dozens of Thousands of dollars!"
As a result, a line of prompts appeared in front of her eyes, which disappointed her.
[This item cannot extract time value. 】
Little Princess Qian threw the stone away angrily and said depressedly: "Why can't the stone work?"
"Maybe this stone doesn't work? Let me try another one." She picked up another stone, but the prompt remained the same and could not be extracted.
The irritable Dragon King scratched his head and suggested: "If the stone doesn't work, let's try something else."
He looked around and found several big trees, and said happily: "Such a thick tree can live for at least several decades. Let's extract the time value of the big trees."
The two ran over excitedly, but they still couldn't extract it.
"What are you doing?!" Little Princess Qian kicked the big tree angrily and said, "This won't work, that won't work either, what on earth will work?"
She turned to look at the house next to her, and suddenly had an idea. She smiled and said: "Dragon King, look at this house. It seems to be very old. The time value should be very high. Let's try it!"
The two of them ran to the house again. The Dragon King stretched out his hand and pressed it on the wall. This time the system prompted them that they could extract it.
"extract!"
The Dragon King roared.
[Successfully extracted 22 points of time value. 】
[Currently you have collected 22 points of time value. 】
[There are currently 9 withdrawal opportunities left. 】
…
After the time value was extracted, the brick house in front of him disappeared.
"Huh? It's only 22 o'clock?" The irritable Dragon King was a little disappointed. He thought that this house could extract 70 or 80 time points at least, but he didn't expect that it was only more than 20 points.
Depressed, Dragon King announced the incident on the team channel.
[Irritable Dragon King]: Guys, I have something to tell you. Time value cannot be extracted from rocks and trees, so don't bother.
[Little Princess Money]: Yes, there is still a house that can be withdrawn, but the time value is very small, only twenty or thirty points...
[Giant God]: I see, I understand, and everyone will share useful information in the future to avoid others taking detours.
[Knowing Autumn in One Night]: It’s only twenty or thirty o’clock in a house? A bit less indeed. By the way, Dragon King and little princess, did you check the things in the house before extracting its time value? What if there were items of high time value inside that disappeared with the house, wouldn’t it be a waste?
[Irritable Dragon King]: Oops, I forgot about this. Next time before I withdraw the time, I will go to the house and look around.
…
On the other side, Moonlight Bunny and Sky Melancholy are walking through the town.
"Sister Melancholy, where can we find old items?" Moonlight Bunny asked curiously.
Tian Tian melancholy said: "I know there is a place full of old items. I just don't know if there is such a place in this town. If there is, we can easily pass the level."
"What place is it? So magical?" Moonlight Bunny was still confused.
Sky Melancholy looked at her and asked, "What do you think is the oldest?"
"Hmm...ancient thing?" Moonlight Bunny blinked.
Sky nodded melancholy: "Yes, the oldest things are actually antiques."
"Paintings, ceramics, statues from hundreds or even thousands of years ago...the time value on these things must be very impressive."
Only then did Moonlight Bunny react, clapped his hands and said with a smile, "I understand, are you looking for an antique store?"
"That's right." Tian Tian melancholy nodded: "If we can find it, we can collect a lot of time values, and the time to clear the level will be greatly shortened."
"Haha! Sister Melancholy, you are so smart!" Moonlight Rabbit pulled Melancholy's arm in the sky and said excitedly: "Let's go find it quickly and try to clear this demonic realm today!"
The two were talking when they suddenly heard a melodious bell ringing in the sky.
Dangdangdang...
The bell rang eight times, which meant that it was already eight o'clock, and the sky was starting to get dark, as if it was going to be night.
The two men, Tianmei Melancholy, had heard this kind of bell ringing before. They just thought it was telling the time, so they didn't pay attention.
"Found it! Antique shop!"
After turning two corners, Moonlight Bunny saw an antique store at a glance. The two of them ran over quickly, opened the door and walked into the store.
I saw that the shop was filled with a dazzling array of antiques, of all types, which was dazzling.
"Which antique here is the oldest?"
Moonlight Rabbit didn't understand this at all, so he picked up a long sword covered with rust and said, "This looks so old, it must have a lot of time value, right?"
Tian Tian's Melancholy didn't know much about antiques. She shook her head and said, "I don't know either. How about calling everyone over and taking a look. Maybe someone can understand."
A message was sent in the team channel, and it didn't take long for everyone to arrive.
"Antique shop, haha, this is a good idea!" The grumpy Dragon King looked excited: "If we find an antique from ten thousand years ago, we will pass the level directly!"
He looked around the antique shop without emotion, shook his head and said, "It was a prehistoric civilization ten thousand years ago. This antique shop doesn't seem to have anything that old."
"It's not ten thousand years old, just find one that's thousands of years old!" The Dragon King picked up a strange-shaped antique with a smile and asked, "Who knows what this is? It looks like a teapot..."
When the little princess Qian saw it, she immediately took two steps back and said anxiously: "You, put it down quickly. This thing seems to be called a chamber pot! It's very dirty!"
"Chamber pot? What is it for?" The irritable Dragon King looked at the chamber pot with a curious look on his face, put it under his nose and smelled it, and said, "Where is it dirty? It doesn't have a special smell."
Zhang Ze had a black line on his head: "Dragon King, that was used by ancient people to catch urine..."
"vomit!"
The irritable Dragon King immediately dropped the chamber pot, shook his hands with a disgusted look on his face, and said, "Holy crap, my nose just touched it!"
Everyone burst into laughter.
But after laughing, everyone was still at a loss to deal with the antiques in this room.
Because no one knows which age of the antiques here is the oldest.
"Each of us has less than 10 opportunities. We can't waste it. We must find the one with the highest time value." The giant god frowned and murmured: "It would be great if there was an expert here..."
"Expert..." Zhang Ze suddenly remembered something, and he smiled: "I happen to have an expert here, curator, come out!"
brush!
The curator with a Mediterranean hairstyle stood in front of everyone. He said respectfully to Zhang Ze with a smile on his face: "Master, are you calling me?"
"Well, use your professional knowledge to help us identify which antique here is the oldest?"
Yes, as a museum curator, his expertise is undoubted and he can definitely find the oldest objects inside.
"OK."
The curator took out a small magnifying glass and placed it on his eye socket, picked up a wooden Buddha statue and examined it carefully, and said: "The painted wooden statue of Guanyin from the Song Dynasty is about 700 years old!"
Everyone was immediately overjoyed. One antique was worth seven hundred years, and there were at least several hundred pieces in this shop. The total must be more than ten thousand!
"But...it's a fake!" The curator threw the wooden Buddha statue into the trash can next to it like trash, and said: "Modern high imitations can be at most 5 years old."
Everyone: "..."
You're such a bitch! Can't you just say it all at once? What a joy!
