Learn one small skill every day

Although Bai Miao found it strange, he was certain that what he was looking for was in Kade City.

That giant steam engine looks suspicious no matter how you look at it, okay?

"I'd like to ask... do you know which relic is in the city of Kade?"

Zhuo Xinzhi, a crew member from the R&D department, asked a question.

Of course, it was Wang Xiang who wanted him to ask this question online.

"This... I have no right to know. This is the guidance the gears are giving me."

Bai Miao then realized that he hadn't been playing with the gears just now, but that he could actually obtain certain information from them.

Bai Miao carefully examined the lord's head again and suddenly realized that the gear was not a headdress, but was fixed in the scalp with small metal pillars at both ends as support points.

"I see... Thank you, then we'll take our leave."

After receiving the certificate from the lord, Bai Miao led his men far away, but a feeling of being spied on lingered in his heart.

He couldn't help but turn back to look at the lord's house, but through his Qi-observation technique, he saw wisps of smoke rising from the house, causing his mental energy to drop rapidly.

At the same time, a string of information appeared in Bai Miao's mind.

{To Lord Kaharia Turias of Bantu County:}

Leading outsiders to the city of Kad.

Chapter 109 Departure

I used the Qi Observation Technique again and saw something I shouldn't have...

Bai Miao was somewhat alarmed as he looked at his mental strength, which had decreased by 15 points.

Even encountering ghosts on the road to Qingqiu Kingdom wouldn't deduct this much energy; receiving a single message directly wiped out a third of my mental strength...

What kind of monster is connected by this gear?

Bai Miao dared not think too much about it, but he was certain that what the lord said was true.

He did indeed get instructions from the turning of the gears.

The only uncertainty is what the attitude of the mysterious entity behind this gear is.

It's alright... The Endless Energy is a strong support. If the other party is unwilling to talk, then threaten to sink the entire Stram into the sea.

Bai Miao comforted himself and joined Wang Xiang's team.

There is only one certificate to enter Cad City, which portrays Bai Miao and his group as adventurers searching for relics, hoping to find treasures in Cad City.

These types of outsiders are also very welcome to the Stramon officials. They can not only bring a lot of foreign knowledge, but also exchange other relics that Stramon has acquired but cannot excavate for use with other relics that can bring value in a short period of time.

The artifacts found in the sea have become an indispensable part of many civilizations, and in the absence of a unified currency, they have become a true form of hard currency.

As for the valuation of relics, there is naturally a mature system in place to ensure that the value of relics is not misjudged to the greatest extent possible.

This can probably guarantee that about 10% of the relics will not be misjudged.

The probability isn't high, but it's much better than guessing. After all, no one can accurately determine the value of an item retrieved from the sea of ​​unknown age and function without any reference.

……

Congratulations on acquiring the skill: Valuation

[Estimation LV1: You can roughly determine the value of an item]

After midnight, Bai Miao drew a new skill.

Bai Miao's first thought was that he could go to the jade gambling factory and antique shop and use his pretentious and humiliating tactics to impress people.

Like buying a piece of worthless stone for a price that others can't imagine, only to be ridiculed and then cut it open to find it's imperial green.

However, Bai Miao immediately assessed the value of his equipment.

The reference point is naturally the props you already have.

The Aleph Silent, the He-grade Ten Eyes, and the Teth-grade Moonflower are all valuation references.

The Holheim ranged weapon received an He-class rating, and the dagger and exoskeleton armor set is also considered He-class.

This seems to indicate that the Endless Energy is capable of mass-producing He-class items.

It's a bit scary.

However, it must be said that the valuation skill is currently very useful, and Bai Miao is confident that he can use valuation to quickly find the missing parts belonging to the Endless Energy.

Each of the three components possesses a function that is far beyond the realm of ordinary understanding.

Magic disguised as technology.

This is Bai Miao's evaluation of the three accessories.

Stemen is not a plain. Its 1827 square kilometers of land has plains, hills and other terrains. The area where Bai Miao and his group landed was in the mountains. They needed to cross the mountain and pass through a plain to reach the city of Kade.

The map information is stored in the helmet's data after being scanned by the drone.

So far, there have been no errors.

"Let's rest here for a while and then get up and continue our journey tomorrow morning."

There are no other animals on land besides humans, a fact that Bai Miao deeply understands when traversing the mountains and forests.

There were no birds, and no sign of any living creature.

The entire forest was quiet at night, with only the rustling of the sea breeze through the leaves and the sound of waves crashing on the distant shore.

After arranging the watch order, the group sat down against the tree trunk and dozed off.

Bai Miao slept for only an hour and remained awake. When it was light the next day, the group quickly began their journey.

After crossing the mountain, Bai Miao and his companions saw the enormous steam engine once again.

This time it's much clearer.

The entire steam engine was built against the mountain, with the vast city of Kad below.

The city of Kade is bordered by mountains on one side and plains on the other, with the sea on both sides, where many giant ships can be seen docked.

Scattered across the plains are villages and towns of all sizes, which seem to be the territories of different lords.

Even more magnificent are the railways that extend from the city of Cad, leading directly to the port or into the town.

There was a town at the foot of the mountain where Bai Miao and his companions were, which was the final stop of the railway.

A dark steam locomotive is parked inside the station, waiting to depart at the scheduled time.

"Shall we go into the station?"

Wang Xiang asked.

"Come on, or we'll miss the train."

The rugged mountain road was like flat ground under Bai Miao's feet, and a few minutes later Bai Miao arrived at the platform.

The people on the platform saw Bai Miao and his group suddenly jump down from the mountain. They first looked at them warily, and then asked.

"You...you're from Bantu County? Outsiders?"

Bai Miao nodded: "We're planning to go to Card City, is this the bus we're taking?"

"That's true, but do you have a pass to enter the city?"

The people inside the station were dressed more elegantly than the fishermen of Bantu County, with shiny iron plates sewn onto their clothes and various gears on their heads.

The thought that the other end of these gears was inside these people's minds sent chills down Bai Miao's spine.

Won't these gears spinning get your brain all muddled?

They were equally open to outsiders, it was just that Bai Miao and his group made a rather strange entrance.

Shouldn't it normally come from a small road built in Bantu County?

How could someone possibly come down from the mountains?

"Pass, yes."

After Bai Miao produced his pass, the conductor poked his head out of the train, adjusted the gears on his forehead, and ushered the group into the front carriage.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Bai Miao continued to use his Qi-observation technique to look at the smoke appearing above the flight attendants' heads and obtained another instruction message.

To Feng Kala Mir, crew member of train K122:

Guide visitors to carriage number two.

Bai Miao still paid the price of 15 points of mental energy.

The 15 points of mental energy are deducted all at once. This means that once the Abyss Howls's mental energy lock is activated, Bai Miao will be unable to obtain the specific details of the instructions from the mist.

Gotta use it sparingly.

Bai Miao and the others sat down side by side. The flight attendant smiled at them professionally and then began to introduce the information about Stermong and Card City, finally extending a warm welcome to them.

It feels like traveling to another place.

Afterwards, a flight attendant brought over a plate of special dishes: grilled fish with snails.

The presentation involves using a thin screw to fill the spiral with fish meat, then coating it with seasonings and grilling it.

"We...don't eat, thank you."

Bai Miao refused.

Is this thing going to swallow the screws along with it?

Chapter 110 The Priest Blocks the Way

As the steam locomotive drove out of the town, Bai Miao and the others saw an even more expansive pastoral landscape.

The climate on the island is very pleasant, and the plains are covered with lush vegetation. Farmers working in the fields will look up and wave to the people on the motorcycles when they hear the sound of passing vehicles.

It's a scene of simple and honest folk customs.

Bai Miao couldn't help but wonder if only the fishermen on the very edge of the area were so ruthless, ripping off outsiders, while the rest of the Sternman residents were all very kind.
