Chapter 157: Gem of God (1)

"Hey! Anyone else? I'm here! Come hit me!..." Zhou Xing deliberately made a loud noise, but could only hear his own echo.
There was a hard stone wall in front of him, and there was no road. He reached the end of this copy. It stands to reason that the bottom boss should have appeared here, but the system prompt sounded in his ear.
System prompt: You have completed the expedition of the single-player instance, do you send it outside?
Zhou Xing hesitated, just about to nod, but suddenly remembered his promise to the old lady to help him find his son. So he suspended his teleportation and began to wander through the huge armory.
After nearly two days of fighting, Zhou Xing fully understood the strength of the monster in this dungeon, that is, he, as someone else, had already died eight hundred times, so he judged that if the old lady’s son really entered here, he must have been died.
Before, he always looked around, now he pays more attention to the ground.
Sure enough, after searching for almost an hour, Zhou Xing finally found that there was a corpse with only bones in the gap between two siege vehicles. Looking at the skeleton, the deceased should be a man.
Zhou Xing sighed, pulled the corpse out of the cracks, and then received a system prompt.
System reminder: You found the body of Treasure Detector Sanders.
Zhou Xing sighed again, and the old lady's son was Sanders, which was correct.
Sanders had a large skeleton, and it was inconvenient for Zhou Xing to carry it on his back, so he took out a new Qiankun bag and wanted to put it in the bag. However, at this moment, he suddenly found that there was something in Sanders’ mouth. So he opened the skull's mouth, and then he saw a piece of shredded paper, the hundredth piece of shredded paper.
Holding the newly found shredded paper, Zhou Xing was excited, and he received the system prompt again.
System prompt: You have collected all the shredded paper, do you want to combine it?
"Synthesis!" Zhou Xing said immediately. He thought he had to do it slowly. It turned out that the system was responsible for the synthesis, which would save much trouble.
As soon as the voice fell, a hundred shreds of paper disappeared at the same time, and when they reappeared, they became a complete blueprint—the design drawing of the single-soldier magic continuous crossbow (epic level) [Binded, not tradeable, not Drop].
Looking at the "epic" rank appraisal, Zhou Xing was overjoyed, feeling that all his efforts were worthwhile, and the scrolls used were not wasteful and no longer felt distressed. However, after looking closely, he discovered that this drawing requires at least a senior caster to learn, and he is still only a junior caster. Although he is not far from an intermediate caster, it takes a lot of time to advance to a senior caster.
Pressing his heart to excite, Zhou Xing secretly decided to do more equipment leveling in the future, and then chose to leave here, and then a white light brought him back to the ground. When he came, all the monsters on the road had been refreshed. Zhou Xing did not want to spend any more time to kill him, so he directly used the deserter scroll to return to the city, and once again visited the old lady who had lost her son.
Zhou Xing recounted the cause and effect, and gave Sanders' body to her. The old woman cried bitterly while holding her son's bones.
At that scene, those who heard it were really sad and those who saw it were crying, Zhou Xing stood on the side, not knowing how to persuade him. He always feels that it is better not to persuade him to let the old man vent his longing for decades than to hold it in his heart.
The old lady cried, wiped away her tears, carefully wrapped the bones, put them in a large wooden box, and then turned to Zhou Xing and said, "Thank you, young man, I will not repay your kindness. There is no money at home, only one piece. I will give it to you the little stone handed down from the ancestors."
After all, the old lady stuffed a quail egg-sized, emerald green gemstone into Zhou Xing's hands. Zhou Xing took a closer look and was surprised that it was actually a gem of grace!
The Gem of God’s Grace is a top-level strengthening gem, which can be used to strengthen the equipment at levels 16-20. It is the first time for Zhou Xing to see such a rare object. He has visited dozens of main cities and has never been in any of them. I've seen God's Grace gems in auction houses or stalls.
This gem is completely priceless, and even if there is a price, it must be sky-high.
For a while, Zhou Xing felt that the reward was too precious, so he hesitated and wanted to decline, but he was a little bit reluctant. Her heart was contradictory. The old lady saw it, and immediately scrambled and let him accept it. Because he brought back her son, her son is the most precious, what a broken stone is.
Zhou Xing thanked him again and again and left with shame.
What to do next, Zhou Xing didn't think about it for a while, so he walked casually on the street, but at this time, the leopard rushed over, his face was full of joy.
"Mr. Zhou, good news, I have found all the materials you asked for with a lot of effort, and I have basically found them!" Leopard asked for credit.
Zhou Xing said calmly: "Is there a list?"
"Yes! Please have a look!" The Leopard presented a list with both hands, on which the names of rare materials and the corresponding quantities were written.
Zhou Xing was calm on the surface, but in fact he was still a little excited. He didn't worry about looking at other materials. He first looked for Crimson Heart, but the only thing not on the list was Crimson Heart.
Zhou Xing sighed secretly, glanced at the other materials, there were more than a hundred pieces in total, and said: "It seems to be missing."
"Yes, the Crimson Heart is missing, but don't worry, I already know where I have it, it's in the underground arena! The Crimson Heart is regarded as a champion reward! I have contacted the organizer of the arena, but they are stubborn. It doesn't work. I will not sell it anyway. I only say that this thing belongs to the champion and cannot be measured by money. These idiots, anyone and anything in this world, can be measured by money!" Leopard said in indignation.
Hearing a few words in the underground arena, Zhou Xing's eyes suddenly brightened, and he was very interested to go and see. Although there are two games to be played every day, it is still in the knockout stage. The opponents are not strong, and it is meaningless to win. He would like to meet the masters here.
"Did you bring any other materials? Let's settle the bill first."
"Okay, okay! Bring them all! I can only buy these goods after borrowing usury!" Leopard said with a smile.
After the two completed the transaction, Zhou Xing exchanged more than one hundred gold coins for a lot of urgently needed rare materials.
The Leopard's net worth soared several times in an instant, and now he can walk sideways in the deserted city. But in front of Zhou Xing, Leopard didn't dare to be disrespectful, with a flattering smile on his face, he had completely regarded Zhou Xing as the of wealth.
Under the guidance of the leopard, Zhou Xing came to an underground kingdom, where the liveliness and the desertedness on the ground formed a sharp contrast, it was two worlds.
