Chapter 549 The Mysterious Big-Eyed Guy
Based on the current prices charged by active studios in the game, it's basically a few dozen points for one RMB. Of course, it takes a lot of time for studios to boost your points.

Unlike other games where you can register multiple accounts or have accounts that aren't linked to the player, "Ten Continents Chronicles" forces players to link their accounts to a person. In this case, even top-up services can't exist. Even the richest boss has to lower himself to personally participate in events, at most hiring someone to help with dungeons or grinding.

Fortunately, non-invasive brain-computer interface technology has been mature for a long time, otherwise Fang Xianyu would really have had a hard time explaining this kind of overbearing clause of binding an account to a biological human...

However, no matter what game it is, or even in real life, whales always have a way to get started with big spenders. So Wu Tong's price was quite reasonable, and many players were willing to sell their items on the spot. After all, almost all items in "Ten Continents Chronicles" can be freely traded, and selling them for RMB is the value system of most working people.

Betting on the odds of winning a lottery?
No way. Gambling mentality is a no-no. Just focus on making money honestly. Besides, you can probably accumulate enough points to redeem them by completing daily tasks, so there's no need to hoard these tokens...

That's five hundred yuan!

For many working-class people, 500 yuan can feed them for ten days on Crazy Thursdays, but for Wu Tong, a big spender who doesn't lack money, 500 yuan is not even enough for a day's pocket money.

Even if I accept them all, it's just a matter of gritting my teeth and spending less on game gift packs this month.

However, not all players were willing to spend. Besides those who were not short of money, such as Zhao Qing and Jie Ran, there were also those who thought they were smart and were waiting for the right price. But overall, Wu Tong's gains from this dungeon run were still very considerable. In addition to the points earned from killing monsters normally (the half-dead monsters that Big Eyes spit out were also counted as event points), there was a bunch of materials and thirty-seven tokens, directly earning 17 event points!
After handing over the mission, at Wu Tong's request, the Jade Emperor found an open space to auction off the mission items—the cyan Qiankun bag given by Baili Shuang contained quite a few equipment and materials!

Bai Li Shuang tried her best to soothe Big Eyes in a friendly manner, hoping to communicate with it smoothly.

However, she was overthinking it; Big Eyes seemed to fully understand the forms of human civilization.

At least it not only recognized Baili Shuang's status, but even tried to open its mouth wide—it was imitating the players' smiles, clearly a friendly gesture. Its intelligence was far beyond Baili Shuang's expectations!
However, its mouth is too big, its body is too large, and its teeth are sharp, making it look a bit scary.

But what's even more interesting is that Baili Shuang saw it trying to turn its two tentacles into human hands!
It's neither illusion nor shapeshifting; if a definition had to be given, it's more like "mimicry."

The soft tentacles curled up and split into five small segments, gradually changing into the shape of a human hand. Soon, the two tentacles became hands. The big-eyed creature curiously grabbed at the air and twisted its fingers, bending them to extremely strange angles, as if it was very unfamiliar with its own hands—or perhaps it was just unfamiliar.

Then, it looked at Baili Shuang's hand and moved its own fingers along with it until it gradually became "normal".

What an amazing creature.

Baili Shuang didn't forget to record the screen. Although she couldn't glean any information from Da Yanzai's actions, the Chinese could.

However, even though Big Eyes has "conjured" hands, he still cannot communicate with Baili Shuang.

It simply stretched out its hand and waved it at Baili Shuang—this was the gesture it made when it saw players greeting each other.

To show goodwill, Baili Shuang waved back at him, and casually cast a spell to separate herself from the players who were passionately auctioning equipment nearby. Then she looked at Big Eyes, pondering how to communicate with it. Logically speaking, Fang Xianyu had already attained the Dao of Taiyin and gradually become an immortal body, so there shouldn't be any "language barrier" between them.

When one reaches the realm of a god, one can transform all thoughts into a single idea if one so desires, and even if there is a language barrier, one can communicate through divine consciousness or similar means.

Even an ant can be forcibly implanted with information. Of course, given the ant's biological structure, it probably cannot understand the implanted information. If it were a very primitive creature, it might collapse on the spot.

Therefore, in theory, Fang Xianyu could communicate directly with Da Yanzai using his divine sense, but in reality, he couldn't.

This brings us to the point that Fang Xianyu only now understood why creatures like Big Eyes could feed on things like the Nine Nether Demons.

It has no consciousness!
Or rather, it has no brain!

Its head was a chaotic mess, and Fang Xianyu couldn't penetrate it... At least, she couldn't force information into Big Eyes like she would into an ant, even with Baili Shuang as her alias.

Of course, she didn't dare to be too violent. Anyone who could eat a superior demon like a snack was definitely not someone to be trifled with. If she accidentally offended them, it would be difficult to repair the relationship later.

Without a brain or soul, not only can Fang Xianyu not force information into Big Eyes, but even the most powerful pollution and damage to the soul and spirit by beings like the Nine Nether Demons have no effect on Big Eyes. To put it in a more abstract way, Big Eyes is a naturally "magic-immune" being!

In addition, Fang Xianyu also discovered a special feature of Big Eyes: it does not have vocal cords.

The lack of vocal cords means that Mike Wazowski cannot speak—he can only produce breathy sounds by squeezing his esophagus, but he cannot produce a series of syllables…

"Perhaps this group of creatures has not evolved vocal communication. It not only lacks vocal cords, but also lacks ears, a structure similar to those found in most mammals on Earth. Moreover, its eye is also strange; the state of its iris and pupil is not conducive to collecting visual information..."

Just after Fang Xianyu, disguised as Baili Shuang, settled Big Eyes in a palace of the Taiyin Sect and entrusted him to the project team for care, a group of people who had been temporarily called to a meeting were having a heated discussion in a conference room at the Blue Star project team base.

"Then we can consider it from the perspective of its living environment..."

"It may not live in the outer sea of ​​Guixu. I am more inclined to believe that it accidentally entered the Guixu Realm. Otherwise, how could no one have discovered or encountered this creature for so long?"

“That makes sense. I agree with that idea. At least the Quanxian tribe’s response was completely undocumented.”

"We can also reason backwards. These creatures probably live in a vacuum or near-vacuum environment. Because they cannot transmit sound, or the efficiency of transmitting sound is extremely low, they have not evolved organs with related functions. They must have other ways to communicate within their group."
