102. Challenge Successful-Free Food?!
According to Lin Fan's plan.
Using Artifact Spirit as servers and 'arrays' instead of base stations, we can skip wired networks and directly enter the era of wireless networks.
Then, an encrypted terminal is used to interact with the server and transmit data...
In a way, this is already the internet, isn't it?
So, here's the question.
Where can we find Artifact Spirit?!
What exactly does a ' Base Station Formation ' look like?
Also, how do you make an encrypted terminal?!
These are things that need to be figured out slowly on their own. Fortunately, Qi Zixiao has now made a breakthrough, so she no longer needs to worry about attracting too much attention when she goes out.
After all, he had been in seclusion, but suddenly ran out. When the disciples found out, they naturally thought that there must be something important, otherwise why would he interrupt his seclusion?
Now that we've broken through, it's not so troublesome anymore.
After briefly organizing the knowledge he needed to understand and learn, Lin Fan went to the Scripture Pavilion again.
He needs to learn about ' Base Station Formation '. He plans to master the basics of Base Station Formation first, and then find a suitable Artifact Spirit to act as a 'server'.
"However, on the other hand, Artifact Spirit... are probably not so easy to find."
According to descriptions in general novels, there are quite a few magical artifacts and artifacts with Artifact Spirit, but it's probably hard to find many that have the intelligence and computing power to serve as a server's Artifact Spirit.
"I don't know if there are any in the Holy Land. Never mind, let's get the Base Station Formation sorted out first, and then find a way to get someone to refine some Formation Plate to use as base stations."
"Then we can also ask Qi Zixiao if there are any Artifact Spirit in the Holy Land that she can obtain and that are intelligent enough."
"By the way, does she know how to refine Formation Plate or something? If she does... why not just have her refine them?"
On his way to the Scripture Pavilion, Lin Fan thought about many things.
Compared to the last time, this time it was much, much more low-key...
At home in C City.
Qi Zixiao changed into men's clothing and prepared to go out.
"If I'm not mistaken, these stones with spiritual energy should contain jade or something of high value."
"And the spiritual energy I sensed came from the jade."
"So, this is a way for me to Stone Gambling?"
"People online say that one cut can make you poor or rich, one cut can take you to heaven or hell. If I could really use this method to determine the value of the jade inside a rough stone, wouldn't I be able to make money while collecting more jade stones with spiritual energy?"
"..."
"Let's find a place first, take a piece of raw stone there, and cut it open to take a look."
She found a backpack, put a rough stone inside, and prepared to find a place to cut it open to see if it was as she expected.
Originally, Qi Zixiao knew absolutely nothing about Stone Gambling on stones.
However, after Lin Fan mentioned it, Qi Zixiao kept it in mind and found a lot of information through Baidu.
"The internet... is indeed a good thing."
She couldn't help but sigh inwardly, "If the Holy Land had such a network, wouldn't we be able to find answers to all sorts of questions?"
Set off!
Of course, the purpose of this trip is not to make money, but to obtain more spiritual stones through this method.
So she wasn't thinking about how much money she could make, but rather how many spiritual stones she could acquire.
For those who cultivate themselves, money is something that serves their cultivation, so Qi Zixiao would never put the cart before the horse.
Qi Zixiao found the nearest location for cutting raw stones online and flagged down a car to go.
Now, she's quite adept at taking taxis.
But loading the rough stone, weighing several tens of kilograms, along with the person, into the vehicle caused it to lurch suddenly, catching the driver off guard...
"Hey buddy, I didn't realize you were so well-built! Are you a bodybuilder?"
"..."
Qi Zixiao blinked. "Guess?"
driver. "..."
What a load of rubbish!
He shook his head. "Where to!?"
"In the city, there's that jade processing factory."
"Okay~"
This was a big order, the driver said with a big smile, and with a tap on the gas, the car shot off instantly.
Qi Zixiao saw this and had another idea.
We want to drive!
What should we do then?
Hmmmm... Let's learn to drive when we have time.
It took the vehicle more than an hour to reach the bustling area of the city. After all, it is a big city, and the traffic jams were severe, with frequent stops and starts.
At this moment, Qi Zixiao was already feeling extremely hungry. Just then, she saw through the window that there were many people queuing up on the roadside.
At the same time, a large banner stood out, with two lines of text on it, Qi Zixiao read aloud without hesitation.
"Grand opening specials"
"Successfully complete the challenge and everyone gets to eat for free?"
Free food throughout the entire venue?
Challenge?!
"Parking!!!"
Qi Zixiao immediately spoke up, and the driver pulled over, looking completely bewildered. "What's wrong?"
"It's nothing, I just wanted to try it out."
Qi Zixiao readily scanned the code to pay the fare and headed towards the shop.
Whether it's free or not doesn't matter, we just want to try it out, understand?
She quickly joined the queue.
At that moment, the staff in front were explaining the challenge rules...
"Those who are in the later stages may not be able to see our written rules, so I'll explain them to everyone."
"The challenge is to finish our ' Taste Supreme Buffet ' Super Beef Mountain in ten minutes, and you can eat for free!"
"If you can't finish the food, you'll need to pay the corresponding fee."
"At the same time, we also have additional challenges."
"If you can finish two servings in a row, you get three free meals; if you finish three servings in a row, you get ten free meals!!!"
Qi Zixiao couldn't help but purse her lips as she listened to the rules.
Self-service?
We know what a buffet means, and it's all free to eat, so isn't that just a free buffet?
Whether it's free or not doesn't matter, right?
Just then, the two girls in front of Qi Zixiao raised their hands. "Um, I have a question, what's the reward if we finish four or even five servings?"
"Within ten minutes per serving."
"Impossible."
The other person chuckled, "We know our own portions very well. Being able to finish one serving already makes us a competitive eater. Four servings? That would probably make us inhuman!"
"Really? Then I'll give it a try today."
The girl held up a selfie stick towards herself, smiling, and said, "Guys, you all saw that, right? People don't believe us!"
"Let's teach them a lesson today!"
"So you're a streamer?"
The shop owner's eyes lit up, and he immediately smiled.
Hello, host!
What's the hottest economic trend right now? The influencer economy! If a livestreamer is popular enough, and she eats at her own restaurant, won't that make the restaurant popular too?
Besides, even if she really is a big eater or something, we're not afraid!
With her small frame, how much could she possibly eat?
Do you think she can bankrupt such a big store like ours?!
Impossible!
The shop owner was very confident.
