Rebirth of the Stars

　　 Ning Yuan became more and more aware that this pure darkness might not be pure darkness, but something else, just showing it as pure darkness.

　　 But for the time being, Ning Yuan didn't have any clues to investigate the nature of this darkness. And now the most important thing for Ning Yuan is to retrieve the lost items. In particular, it is related to the "Rebirth" authority and compulsory tasks on the body, the "source of freezing ice", and the bigu Dan and Reincarnating Dan which are related to his lifeline.

　　 searched outside along the lamps floating on the ground that constantly absorbed the black gas and emitted white light, not letting go of any traces on the dark ground that shone and reflected in the light.

　　 Finally, somewhere in Ning Yuan about 30 meters in radius from the light of the lamp, he found the first item—a bottle of Second Transition Bigu Dan. Fortunately, perhaps because the surrounding darkness eliminated the impact of the collision, the porcelain vase containing the bigudan was not damaged in the slightest. This made Ning Yuan, who had always had a certain worry, greatly relieved.

　　 The first bottle of Bigu Dan was found, and soon the second bottle containing the second bottle of Bigu Dan was also found without any damage. Seeing the two bottles of Bigu Danhou intact, Ning Yuan completely let go of some worry.

　　 Perhaps because Ning Yuan’s "luck" attribute has been hovering between 67, Ning Yuan did not spend too much time to find most of the missing items. Including the hidden blueprints obtained from the three maze treasure chests, the earth-level red item "Nine Refining Qi Turning Heart Sutra (fragment from the random treasure chest, and all second-turn bigu Dan.

　　 But the most critical spiritual component, "The Source of Ice Frozen", and the yellow-grade orange-quality reincarnating pill were not found. Including the jade box that originally contained the reincarnated pill and second-turned bigu pill. Although in fact the jade box is just dispensable for Ning Yuan.

　　 About two days later (It is impossible to accurately calculate the time in this space. After falling into a frenzy, the countdown to the blessing of ‘Meditation’ has lost its role as a time reference).

After Ning Yuan placed the thirty-seventh "unknown lamp" at a limit distance of about one kilometer around the "unknown lamp" that was originally used as the coordinate point and searched for a certain distance, he finally found the distance. The reincarnated pill and the "source of freezing ice."

　　 At this point, except for the jade box originally equipped with Bigu Pill and Reincarnation Pill, all the gains in the trial have returned to Ning Yuan's hands.

　　 As for the jade box, Ning Yuan no longer plans to spend time and energy to find it. He just wants to take a good night's sleep after supplementing his bigu status.

　　 The two days regardless of day and night may be longer. Ning Yuan has not blinked an inch by inch of the pitch black ground looking for the lost items, searching a radius of nearly ten kilometers with the original lamp as the center. He is exhausted.

　　 He just wants to take a good rest, and then use all his energy to deal with this difficult situation.

　　 However, the old saying goes well, "If you intentionally plant flowers but do not bloom, unintentionally plant willows and willows to make a shadow", "the mountains and rivers are nowhere to be found, and the willows and the flowers are in another village."

　　 Just when Ning Yuan was about to give up looking for the jade box, the opened jade box appeared on the edge of the light.

　　 Ning Yuan was very surprised by the jade box that appeared in front of him like he looked back, but even more unexpectedly on the inner wall of the jade box in the opened state.

　　 When he picked up the jade box and inspected it, Ning Yuan was very surprised to find that there were etching marks on the bottom and the inner walls of the jade box. Then Ning Yuan remembered that the jade box was filled with silk cloth when the bigu pill and reincarnated pill were in it.

　　 So Ning Yuan at that time did not find the jade box strange.

　　 When he checked the etching in the jade box again, Ning Yuan couldn't stop the expression of surprise and surprise in his eyes.

　　 There seem to be etched copybooks on the bottom and inner wall of the jade box? !

　　 Although Ning Yuan does not know if it is "Mainland Universal Copybook", as long as it is a copybook, it is enough for Ning Yuan to learn the skills of "reading and writing".

　　 At this moment, Ning Yuan's physical sleepiness and mental exhaustion seemed to disappear. Ning Yuan carefully observed the fonts in the jade box in great spirits, squatting down and stroking the etching marks with his left hand to confirm, while making gestures on the ground with his right hand.

　　 "Congratulations to the player for learning the skill "Reading and Writing". The current level is level 1."

"Reading and writing: Level 1. Common basic skills for all races in the Nieno continent. Can be learned by imitating copybooks. Effect: Players with the'reading and writing' skills can freely read and learn all text materials except for the compilation of licensed code words. Level 1. 'Reading and Writing' can read all text materials compiled in the common mainland language. Upgrade condition: copy special copybooks."

　　 "This is really a surprise." Ning Yuan looked at the ‘reading and writing’ skills that appeared in the skill bar, smirked and muttered, then fell on the mirror-like pitch-black ground in a drowsiness. Entering a deep sleep with a smirk in the light of the lamp.

　　 may be the next day. Ning Yuan opened the character panel the first time he woke up, and looked at the "reading and writing" skills that really appeared in the skill bar, and he was relieved.

　　 He is really afraid that this is a dream.

　　 In the pure darkness like thick mist, in the vast space with nothing but darkness, what Ning Yuan feared most was the spontaneous loneliness.

　　 This kind of loneliness is not a negative emotion hidden in the dark, but an emotion that naturally arises as a person in such an environment, regardless of reason, calmness or not.

　　 After this kind of loneliness has been amplified for a long time, other negative emotions will naturally arise. At that time, no matter whether he was within the safe range covered by light or not, Ning Yuan might fall into madness uncontrollably. Perhaps even crazier than the frantic state of being invaded by darkness before.

　　 Ning Yuan knew that once he couldn't wake up, everything would be over.

　　 Perhaps the "meditation" skill can suppress this feeling of loneliness, but loneliness is not a distraction, and it will not be eliminated by the "meditation" skill. The final result of suppression can only be an uncontrollable explosion.

　　 Before finding a clue to break the dark trial, Ning Yuan didn't know how long he would stay in this space. Therefore, how to resolve the strong loneliness that must appear has become the first problem that Ning Yuan must solve before cracking the dark trial.

　　 And the emergence of "reading and writing" skills let him see the most suitable solution in the current environment.

　　 And this method allows Ning Yuan to be trapped in the inheritance for a long time, but at least not far behind the mainstream players on the mainland in terms of personal strength.

Taking the only two books in his hand from Kun's bag, Ning Yuan, who put on his shirt and dagger, lay on his knees cross-legged, solemnly holding the "First Explanation of Learning (Complete Edition with both hands, which is equivalent to the primary version of the Nieno continent. The book of encyclopedia knowledge is placed on the lap and then opened gently.

　　 I saw that although all the fonts were originally recognized, they just couldn't be read and understood in the brain. The words that were blocked by the brain as out-of-fit are now leaping into the eyes and mind like a fish in water. The language and interpretation of each word naturally appeared in my mind, and the dry brain was like a sponge eagerly absorbing the knowledge and essence between the lines.

"Congratulations to the players for reading "First Understanding of Learning (Complete Edition, the player will automatically obtain the identity of the'Scholar'. This identity will automatically cover the player's civilian identity and will not affect the player's acquisition of other identities. In addition, the'Scholar' identity will automatically enter the player's household registration information During this period, there is no need to go to the Household Registration Department to report again."

　　 "Huh!"

　　 Ning Yuan didn't care about the prompts of the system. He was completely immersed in the knowledge ocean of this Nieno Continent Primary Encyclopedia, and his heart floated deep in his heart and got a feeling of complete relaxation.

　　 This feeling is more intoxicating than the empty inspiration at the end of "meditation".

　　 Ning Yuan, who had just read it through, did not hesitate to read it word by word from the beginning.

　　 again.

　　 twice.

　　 three times.

　　 Ning Yuan completely forgot about time and his current situation.

　　 After careful study over and over again, Ning Yuan was deeply immersed in it. Each repetitive reading makes Ning Yuan full of freshness, because every time he reads, he always has new discoveries and insights.

　　 Although the book "First Explanation of Learning (Complete Edition does not look thick, it is only **** thick. As the encyclopedia of Nieno continent containing all the academic knowledge, it is really scarce. Even if it is only the elementary content, it is slightly thin in terms of the thickness of the book.

　　 But the real situation is that the content of this thin book is really rich beyond Ning Yuan's imagination. Moreover, because of the "simplified language" used, Ning Yuan can deduce a new interpretation every time he reads it, and compared to the actual knowledge of the stars, Ning Yuan can feel that the new interpretation is also correct.

Yes it is. If originally Ning Yuan still didn't quite understand the environment and foundation of the Lord Ruins, the Nieno Continent evolved. It is based on what kind of considerations to evolve a new race suitable for metamorphosis into reality.

　　 Now, Ning Yuan has some guesses and understanding.

　　 A long time later, until Ning Yuan was awakened by the unstoppable hunger in his belly.

　　 Ning Yuan reluctantly closed the book, sighed and exclaimed:

　　 "It is indeed the so-called complete version of "The First Explanation of Learning"."

　　 then softly took another sentence:

　　 "You deserve to be the Lord of the Market, who is known as the God of the World. I now somewhat believe that you come from a more distant past."

　　 Feeling the hunger in his belly, and silently feeling his own spirit, Ning Yuan's eyes were a little tranced.

　　 "A few days have passed?! Reading is the best way to relax for me."

　　 After sighing with a chuckle, Ning Yuan took out the bigu pill and took it down, and then fell into the safe area covered by the light with a relaxed expression. With the sound of steady breathing, Ning Yuan quickly fell into a deep sleep.

　　 This sleep is probably the most peaceful and relaxed sleep Ning Yuan has so far since entering the Nieno Continent.

　　 After waking up, Ning Yuan cleaned up his appearance, and then stepped out of the safe zone alone with a certain guess.

　　 Staggered back from the darkness about ten minutes later.

　　 Seeing that the black air radiating from his body was absorbed by the suspended lamp, a look of "it is true" appeared on Ning Yuan's face. Then there was a touch of awe.

　　 Ning Yuan looked at the floating lamp in silence for a few minutes, and then looked at the faintly visible white light in the darkness for a while. That is his other "unknown lamp" as a landmark.

　　 "Let me use time to verify the second guess."

　　 Thinking about this, Ning Yuan retracted his gaze and sat down cross-legged in the center of the "safe zone" again.

　　 Checked the character panel and player log before picking up "First Explanation of Learning (Complete Edition. Unsurprisingly, the pure knowledge point skill "Learning" has appeared in the skill column, and it has reached level 2.

　　 "Learning: Level: Level 2. Based on the knowledge gathered by the player's experience, experience, and reading. Current effect: Wisdom plus 2, Knowledge plus 1. (Beizhi: non-display attribute)."

　　 The "learning" skill can be said to be a skill that all players will master. It is a basic skill that is useless for players of the force type and is extremely important for players of the mana type.

　　As a pure knowledge point skill, the acquisition and upgrade of "learning" skills can be said to be extremely simple. Even if the force player does not deliberately, as long as the skills acquired through book knowledge points will automatically trigger the learning of "learning" skills. "Learning" skills can be said to be included for players of the military department, and they are also prerequisite skills for certain advanced skills.

　　 It's just that the additional attributes of the "learning" skills are often "wisdom" and "political" attributes that are partial to the mana system. Therefore, the "learning" skill is of no use to players who dominate the military department. At least now almost all of the force players in the Nieno continent think so.

　　 For mana players, the importance of "learning" skills is self-evident. Although the attribute of "learning" skill blessing is very low, and it takes a long time to read. However, in the spirit of "no matter how small a mosquito is, it is meat", almost all mana players will choose to upgrade their "learning" skills to a certain level. But if you want to pay more attention to it, it is not always true. It can only be said that the mentality is actually similar to that of the martial arts players, which can be regarded as an incidental to the learning of book knowledge points.

　　 Of course, for some life professional players and players like Ning Yuan who like to read and have certain goals, the "learning" skill is a basic skill that must be upgraded to level 10. Even this will cost them a lot of time.

　　 As far as Ning Yuan is concerned, raising "learning" to level 5 is one of the prerequisites for reading and learning the "Nine Lianqi Zhuanxin Sutra (fragment. And upgrading the "learning" skill to level 10 is a necessary condition for future status advancement, and it can also be used as one of the foundations of his own professional positioning.

　　 And he himself does have a morbid desire for knowledge. This can be said to be a manifestation of his curiosity. Regardless of the real world of the stars, the virtual world, or other virtual world game worlds in the virtual world, Ning Yuan collected all the books, knowledge, consultation and other intelligence information that he could access as much as possible.

　　 After opening "The First Explanation of Learning (Complete Edition, Ning Yuan was once again immersed in the ocean of knowledge.

　　 In the following time, Ning Yuan has been reading "The First Explanation of Learning" except for occasionally going to the dark to prove something, observing the refinement of the "unknown lamp" and taking bigudan to maintain the bigu state when hunger comes.

　　 Except for the first few days, Ning Yuan would always close his eyes and think for about half an hour after reading "First Explanation of Learning (Complete Edition. Then I started reading again. Even after the "Learning" skill was upgraded to level 5 and fulfilled the reading and learning requirements of "Nine Lian Qi Zhuan Xin Sutra (Fragment, Ning Yuan did not choose to learn "Nine Lian Qi Zhuan Xin Sutra (Fragment immediately, but Continue reading, sorting and comprehension of "The First Explanation of Learning".

Ning Yuan’s days in this dark space began to settle down temporarily, and it seemed that he no longer wanted to solve the test of this dark space as soon as possible to gain the inheritance of the "city knot heart", and he didn't care whether he would get away from the outside players on the Nieno continent. gigantic difference. .

　　 Until more than a month later, Ning Yuan saw the "may" changes that he had been waiting silently for, and he also heard the "may" system prompts that he had been waiting for.

　　 The change comes from the "unknown lamp" that has been in a state of "refining".
