Above the gray fog

"Sorry, I have been busy being a tutor recently and forgot about it." Lin Shan replied.

"Be a mentor? Don't fool me. You are not made to be a mentor. Which college is so ignorant that it asks you to be a mentor?" Icarus's disapproval of Lin Shan's role as a mentor was revealed in every word.

"Chinese Civilization Academy."

"Shenzhou? The name sounds pretty cool, but I've never heard of it."

"Don't think that if you make up an excuse, I will forgive you. Your attitude towards asking for help is really not very good."

Lin Shan didn't reply because he didn't know what to reply now.

Icarus seems a little angry, but she still needs to find his lucky draw, which makes it a bit difficult... It's already Sequence 3, how could he have such a bad temper...

He still remembered that when he first met Icarus, he looked so deserted, as if everything was an ant, and he didn't talk much at all.

The next second, Lin Shan saw black particles flashing next to his little black man.

"Why don't you speak? Are you feeling guilty?" The little black man controlled by Icarus appeared.

"for you.

Before Lin Shan could answer, a system prompt suddenly popped up.

[Player Icarus requests a trade. ]

Lin Shan clicked, [Agree. ]

[The transaction is completed and you have obtained the prop ‘Lucky Lot’. ]

[Lucky sign,? ? ? , can increase the carrier's luck by 1 point. ]

"Did you give it to me?" Lin Shan spoke to the little black man.

"You want this thing. It's useless for me to hold it. Although the attribute is very abnormal to increase luck, our original deal about lucky sign was that if you help me get through the dungeon, I will find the lucky sign with you. Now the dungeon is early It’s already passed. The lucky draw is your reward. We, the Angel Clan, value integrity the most, and I hope you do the same.”

"Don't worry, I will definitely find two places to return to you if I have the opportunity in the future." The little black man nodded.

"It's not a matter of quota."

"Not a quota? What else?"

"Think about it for yourself. I know you're busy, and I have something to deal with recently. I'm leaving." After saying that, Icarus' little black man went offline directly.

After Icarus left, Lin Shan took out the lucky draw, brought it into reality, and then turned off the computer in front of him.

Lin Shan stared at the lucky lottery in his hand, but his mind was thinking about what Icarus had just said.

"If it's not about the quota in the other shore game, what else could it be? Is it about team formation?"

"Whether it's the quota for the other side game or the team formation, I don't seem to have completed it well..." Lin Shan smiled self-deprecatingly and returned his eyes to the lucky draw.

The shape of this lucky sign is a rectangular paper bookmark.

The paper on the surface looks old and fragile, and the edges are slightly raised, as if it has been read countless times.

The paper is pure ivory color, densely covered with small and delicate words, dotted with some exquisite patterns and symbols between the words.

Under the soft light, the golden words and symbols on the lucky lottery seem to flicker gently, like the stars in the distant starry sky, which is both mysterious and attractive.

"Is this a lucky draw? It can increase luck by 1 point. This effect should be common in reality..." Lin Shan said to himself. He recalled what Lin Shan, who claimed to be from the future, said before and found out After signing the other side, you only need to carry it with you like an inseparable person.

Doing this is related to a human pioneer, and may be able to save a pioneer.

Lin Shan studied the lucky sign for a while, but couldn't figure out the reason. Lin Shan took the lucky sign back and took out the deer wood carving. He just forgot to ask Icarus if there were any clues about this thing.

The research was fruitless, so Lin Shan opened the other side game again and controlled the villain to spawn monsters and upgrade.

In the past few months, Lin Shan has been immersed in the game The Other Side. His character has reached level 53, and the map he has developed is more than ten times larger than before.

At a certain moment, Lin Shan suddenly felt boring.

There might be a big secret hidden in the game on the other side, but he couldn't play it very hard, and overall he just wasn't interested.

For several months, apart from killing monsters, I didn't encounter anything interesting.

Sora hadn't taken the initiative to look for him during this period, so he didn't know what he was busy with.

A lot of life fuel had been spilled over a few months. Lin Shan put away the computer in front of him and started refining the fuel.

Time flies by like the wind.

One day.

Lin Shan felt that the life fuel was increasing rapidly!

At this rate, one day will last as long as several decades in the past.

Lin Shan understood that this was the work of the Lord of Time.

"The Lord of History, the Lord of Time, I really want to meet him..." Lin Shan murmured.

In this way, more than a month later, Lin Shan felt that the total amount of life fuel was enough, and the existing life fuel was enough for him to be promoted.

Even so, devout faith continues to grow, and life fuel is continuously squeezed out.

Lin Shan stopped paying attention to the increase in faith and began to concentrate on refining life fuel.

Now the life fuel is very sufficient, enough for him to advance, but its refining speed has never been able to keep up. At this rate, it will take at least ten years to push the progress of the secret power to 100%.

Compared with the hundreds of years it took before, ten years is already very short.

Without realizing it, ten years passed quickly.

Lin Shan's body disappeared from the place.

Scale 2 is an empty prison.

In the depths of the vast void, black holes are like sleeping giant beasts, wandering in the darkness far away from the starlight.

They travel silently between uninhabited galaxies, as if they are conducting an ancient and mysterious pilgrimage.

These "devourers", their existence itself is a huge background. They are immersed in their own gravity song, swallowing the faintly glowing matter around them from time to time, leaving a series of twisted starlight tracks.

Lin Shan opened his eyes, and a magnificent ancient altar stood under his feet.

The altar was surrounded by large nebulae, which were stagnant in silence, emitting subtle rhythms. Behind these nebulae were black holes that kept wandering, waiting for an opportunity to move, as if they were ready to tear Lin Shan apart at any time.

Their way forward was blocked by the nebulae, so they could only shuttle back and forth at the border.
