bang bang bang!

Qin Ran's legs kicked the sandbag which was as high as a person in front of him one after another. The sandbag suspended from the ceiling made a series of muffled sounds.

The muffled sound lasted for a full five minutes before it stopped.

Hoo, hoo.

Qin Ran was panting and wiping sweat, the exhaustion on his face could not be concealed no matter what, but at the same time, his eyes were extremely bright.

Some of his previous guesses have been confirmed one by one in the past few days.

The most direct is the guesswork between physical attributes and skills.

In the intervened dungeon world in front of me, although the physical fitness is limited to the limit of ordinary people, but the skills are not. Once unblocked, it will be extraordinary.

However, extraordinary skills and the physical fitness of ordinary people do not match.

The latter is already inconceivable in the eyes of ordinary people.

But it's not enough for the former.

The most basic example: the extraordinary level of [unarmed combat], the basic requirements are strength d+, agility d+, and constitution d+. For Qin Ran, whose attributes are all e+ at the moment, it is a whole level behind.

But the extraordinary level [unarmed combat] is still usable.

It's just that the power has dropped by more than a little bit, and more importantly... consumption!

According to Qin Ran's comparison, when he used his legs to fight, his energy consumption was more than double that of the normal state. When he fought the Bomb Demon before, he clearly felt the difference. In the past few days, he began to One by one, such differences are detailed and firmly recorded in my mind.

This is not just Kieran's habit.

It was also because Kieran knew the inevitability of doing so.

A person who doesn't know where the limit of his strength is is far inferior to a person who knows the limit of strength and distributes his physical strength reasonably.

Qin Ran didn't want to be the former.

Especially in an unfamiliar copy world.

Picking up the water glass at the side, Kieran sipped the warm water with salt in it, and then walked up to the sandbag again.

After taking a deep breath, Kieran kicked out again.

Bang, bang, bang!

A quick kick made the muffled sound echo again.

However, unlike before, although the muffled sound was much smaller this time, it was more persistent.

Ten minutes later, when Kieran stopped, he still looked at ease.

These few days, Qin Ran was not in vain.

After proving the guess between physical attributes and skills, he began to adjust himself hard, striving to exert the corresponding skill power with the current physical attributes.

To put it simply, he started training [unarmed combat] from the basics again, mastering his own rhythm.

It is not easy to do so.

Qin Ran failed many times.

Fortunately, Qin Ran is not a person who is afraid of failure.

So, he finally succeeded.

Not only can he display the corresponding skill power with his current physical attributes, but he also seems to have a different understanding of the mastery of skills.

Although there are no accurate text prompts in the skill column, the wonderful sense of mastery is deep in my heart.

Kieran was very sure of this.

However, Qin Ran also confirmed one thing: he seemed to be lacking somewhere.

Although he couldn't be sure where this deficiency came from at the moment, he was sure that if he found it, it would definitely be of great help to his strength.

Therefore, Kieran groped for other skills while adjusting himself.

He hopes to find that little 'inspiration' through different attempts.

Of course, Qin Ran didn't try all of them. Some skills that couldn't reach the most basic attributes, Qin Ran would never try.

The most typical one is [Sword Skill. Ten Thousand Snakes]!

For [Sword Skill. Ten Thousand Snakes], which requires B-level spirit at the basic level, and Qin Ran, who only has e+ spirit at the moment, the attribute difference of nearly three levels is really an insurmountable natural barrier.

Moreover, the mystery of the spiritual attribute made Kieran even more vigilant.

Overdrawing too much physical strength may only make you tired for a while.

What about overdrawing the spirit

I'm afraid it is very likely to become a fool.

This is not Qin Ran's wild speculation, but a speculation made after gradually understanding the relationship between spirit and soul. Although there is no conclusive evidence, as long as there is such a possibility, Qin Ran's character will not He made a rash attempt, after all, according to the plan, the day when he unsealed the attributes would not be too far away.

After these few days of accumulation, his reversal energy has reached three saves.

Moreover, hints of obtaining reversal energy are still appearing continuously.

Soon, the fourth reversal of energy conservation will occur.

But compared to the speed of the previous two days, starting today, this speed has declined.

"After the novelty wears off, is it naturally forgotten?"

"It's a scary playing field."

Qin Ran sighed in a low voice.

He can easily imagine the fear and despair of a famous person when he is gradually forgotten. Unless he has real persistence, he will definitely do some extremely exaggerated things.

These things are extremely unbelievable to ordinary people, but they are taken for granted by people around famous people.

because…

Once the benefits of fame have been tasted, all that becomes dull.

It's like a right.

It is a magic medicine and a poison.

Once touched, you will sink into it.

However, Qin Ran was not among them.

His purpose is clear, and he doesn't get lost in it at all.

Step, step.

Qin Ran went up the steps, and when he opened the door to leave the underground training ground, he saw Eckerd sitting on the sofa in the living room.

Behind Eckerd stood a tall and fierce bodyguard.

Not only behind Aikede, but also around the villa, there are three such bodyguards, providing 24-hour security service for Qin Ran.

These are arranged by Eckerd.

After learning that the Bomb Demon came from Nored Church, the deputy director arranged everything as quickly as possible, and when Nuna appeared on behalf of the Hypnotist Association, the deputy director arranged the doubled.

In fact, if it wasn't for the fact that the number of ace bodyguards in the security company was not enough, Eckerd really wanted to have a team of fully armed bodyguards guarding himself and Kieran.

"How about it?"

"Are you still used to it?"

"Do you want me to help you find someone... to accompany you to get rid of loneliness?"

Aikede waved at Qin Ran.

With the further deepening of cooperation, the relationship between the two has become closer, and now they can joke and chat freely like friends.

"Need not."

"It's nice here, I don't want to be disturbed by strangers."

Qin Ran seriously rejected Aikede's proposal.

Because, he knew that if he didn't seriously refuse, Eckerd in front of him would really do it.

No one can underestimate the resources of a TV station deputy director.

When he moved in here on the first day, Qin Ran experienced it once.

The scene at that time was terrible, and Kieran didn't want to experience such a bad experience again.

"Well, now is a special period."

"The presence of strangers is a real problem."

"Damn Nored Church."

After Eckerd nodded, he cursed again in a low voice.

Qin Ran didn't remind Eckerd of the wrong direction of thinking, he knew that once he raised it, it would inevitably lead to a lot of cumbersome and useless inquiries.

Kieran doesn't care about being called an ascetic monk.

But when faced with the suspicious eyes of some acquaintances, Qin Ran couldn't deal with it calmly.

So, Kieran changed the subject.

“Food wise not good enough.”

Qin Ran said seriously.

"That's the best chef I could have had."

"But some real chefs can't be moved by money at all. They all stay in their own shops and manage their own brands bit by bit."

Eckerd spread out his hands with a helpless expression on his face.

The collaborator in front of him is undoubtedly extremely good, no matter in terms of ability, character, and morality, he is extremely reliable.

However, the tongue seems a little too picky.

Some dishes that he thought were quite good were not well received by the other party at all, but the other party tried hard to eat every dish.

Very contradictory.

At least that's how Eckerd sees it.

However, not annoying.

Therefore, Eckerd arranged it with all his heart.

"I can only guarantee that if everything goes well, you will be able to taste the food cooked by a true master tonight."

Eckerd said and took a brown paper bag from the bodyguard.

"Let's see."

"It's the material of this episode."

"I chose it after discussing with the production team for a long time."

Aikede handed the kraft paper bag to Qin Ran.

There is a thick stack of paper for recording information in the paper bag, and there are as many as ten photos.

"Antique vase?"

"The bottle of doom?"

After scanning the photos, Qin Ran looked at the paper, which contained extremely detailed descriptions.

This was made around 700 years after the founding of the New Federation with gold and silver by the very famous craftsman Coxman at that time.

Because of the high cost and exquisite workmanship, this vase has been sought after by people as soon as it comes out of the market. Taking this as an opportunity, Coxman started a tour exhibition across the Federation, which not only made a lot of money, but also made this vase popular. The vase known as the 'Vase of Coxman' became famous.

But the good times didn't last long. During the second federal tour, Coxman slipped and fell off the stage and died.

People didn't pay attention at first, they just took it as an accident.

But then the exhibition team had accidents one after another. Originally, the five people who led the exhibition team headed by Kexman all died unexpectedly. In the performance team following the exhibition team, more than ten people also had different accidents at different times. All the same surprises.

Bottle of doom!

Gradually this title became the name of the 'Bottle of Coxman', and its reputation far exceeded the name of 'Bottle of Coxman'.

After accidents happened one after another, the second exhibition tour had to be terminated, but Kesman's son did not give up.

After about half a year, the third tour of 'The Bottle of Coxman' started again.

But something even more surprising happened when Coxman's son committed suicide the night before the tour.

'I was wrong. '

'It sure does bring bad luck. '

There is such a short last word on the desk.

The third touring exhibition, which ended without a problem, spread the name of the doom of the "Kexman Bottle" throughout the New Federation. It was sent to a local private museum. It wasn't until a few days ago that the museum agreed to cooperate with the Yucheng Public Museum for a joint exhibition that the 'Vase of Coxman' reappeared.

Qin Ran quickly flipped through the paper, and after collecting the general information on it, he turned his gaze back to the photo.

The photo is in color, and it is very new. It is obviously not a recent replacement photo.

The dozen or so photos are all taken from different angles of the 'Kexman's Bottle', and there is nothing else.

"Is there any more detailed information at that time?"

"Newspaper clippings and some sketches of the scene of the accident."

Qin Ran raised his head and asked.

Before cameras were popularized, sketch always occupied a considerable position.

"I've sent someone to collect it."

"If you hurry up, you will be able to see it at tea time."

"Also, the time we agreed with the Yucheng Museum is at 7 pm, after the museum closes."

Just like Eckerd didn't like to be disturbed when he was familiar with Qin Ran, he knew better when he was talking, if he wanted the chat to go on happily.

Then you'd better tell Qin Ran everything you know.

"Um… "

"Then shall we go now?"

"I hope to see the bottle of doom in advance."

Qin Ran asked after pondering for a while.

Although he had agreed on a time and had seen the photos, Kieran would not mind seeing the so-called 'Bottle of Misfortune' with his own eyes.

"no problem."

Eckerd nodded.

Outside the Yucheng Museum, compared to the usual scattered crowd, today's crowd has become denser.

Ten meters high, the banners hung by hot air balloons, the non-stop scrolling electronic subtitles, and the introduction sounds from time to time, all tell everyone what the tourists come for.

'The bottle of doom'!

After the museum's publicity, tourists with enough curiosity have long been attracted.

As for the so-called 'bad luck'

Most people wouldn't believe it until it actually happened.

They believed even more that it was just a series of coincidences.

Or simply a made-up story.

Of course, there are also people who are in awe.

Such people simply do not exist in the crowd.

Other than that, only people with ulterior motives like Qin Ran remained.

"I'm going to buy a ticket."

The make-up artist was very clear about her identity, and she didn't even need Qin Ran to ask, she took the initiative to walk towards the temporary ticket booth.

The Yucheng Museum is open to the public. From Tuesday to Saturday, from 10:00 am to 6:00 pm every day, most rely on the financial support of Yucheng, and a small part rely on donations.

But this time is different, because the 'Bottle of Doom' belongs to that private museum, and everything is based on the other party.

However, the ticket price of 15 yuan is not expensive.

But some people don't think so.

A thin man rushed into the museum while the ticket inspector was not paying attention.

"Stop! Stop!"

"Security! Security!"

The ticket inspector immediately shouted.

Immediately, several security guards rushed up immediately, but the thin and small man was extremely agile, dodging left and right and escaped from the security guards' arrest.

Then…

Running towards Qin Ran's direction.
