Chapter 73 - Cultivation (2/2)
There was another problem here, being, what is the scope of the area referred to as a ‘tourist attraction’.
Did the entire XiZi lake count as one scenic spot, or does the Yue temple within the park count as a spot? After all, scenic areas and scenic spots are all the same; for they can also be called tourist destinations and tourist attractions.
Only people who habitually recognized that scenic locations were larger than scenic spots. XiZi Hu did not count as a scenic ‘point’.
There’s the problem. Did he complete his task near the Yue Temple or at the XiZi lake scenic area?
If it’s the former, then Meng Fan would be able to attain some more experience walking along the XiZi lake. If it was the latter, it would be much more difficult to gain that experience.
…
After watching ‘XiZi lake impressions’, Meng Fan logged off the stream. His viewer count had reached 180,000, including the people he had met on the road who lifted their heads to look at him.
Now, his total stream viewers had reached 950,000. He was so close to completing task phase three.
He left the road and headed south, heading to one of ten scenic spots along XiZi lake—the QuYuan lily pads. He didn’t have the heart to see any more scenery, only strolling around to track the time.
If he stayed there longer than he had stayed at ‘XiZi lake impressions’ and didn’t gain any experience, then he could confirm that XiZi lake counted as one large scenic location that could only be included once.
It went up!
An hour later, Meng Fan saw his progress bar increase by +1.
Then he could basically confirm he only needed to visit an attraction for an hour, and each scenic point had counted for its own experience. Basically, if he walked around the entirety of XiZi lake, he could gain a lot of experience.
This task was not that difficult either.
Strictly speaking, he just had to come out at night and screw around for 100 hours.
After establishing the details, Meng Fan hailed a taxi and headed back to campus. If he didn’t go now, he wouldn’t be able to access the dormitories.
“I almost forgot!”
After getting in the car, Meng Fan remembered there had been an equipment bar below the task progress for [Night Touring God]. Night vision glasses.
Undoubtedly, it was another black magic item.
Normally, night vision goggles were based on thermal imaging, so no matter how high quality the equipment was; it was impossible to achieve good resolution, motion sensitivity, and brightness levels. The projected images all contained a green luster; after all, earth made technology had its limitations.
These night vision glasses also did not represent daytime visions after being equipped. However, the difference was not big; kind of like the difference between standard definition and high definition.
The night vision glasses only cost 150 points. Affordable. Meng Fan directly exchanged for them.
Regarding the points required for equipment redemption, Meng Fan had deduced the rule. Basically, the amount of points an equipment cost would not exceed the amount you will obtain from completing the equipment’s achievement task.
After the exchange, he found the style of the glasses to be very cool. It had two forms; one a basic frame and another in the form of a thin film, or a contact lens. Both forms were able to change color freely.
If he wore them in the form of contact lenses, he could change the color of his pupils in a blink. How cool would that be to show off!
If they were golden, along with their function, he could really say that he has a fiery golden eye!
Unfortunately, it was only night vision. If it also gave X-ray vision, Meng Fan would have happily bought it for 1000 points.
Once he can afford the hat that makes your presence disappear, plus the stream assistant that had the ability to turn invisible and film from the sky… Three great artifacts for a gentleman, no?!
Thinking of this, Meng Fan began to feel that the system was not a nice person.
Putting on his night vision glasses, Meng Fan sat in the taxi and admired the scenery along the way. As he looked, he ended up taking the glasses off.
After all, night scenes were still the most beautiful when the night was in it.
He could wear it occasionally, or when he needed them. It would be too boring to wear it constantly.
After getting off the car, Meng Fan ran past the small grove and put on his night vision glasses again. He wanted to check if he had violated any school rules or regulations.
It was already past eleven o clock. The dormitory building was already closed. Meng Fan slapped on his best smile and was just about to release a chain of words to the dormitory watch lady. Before he could open his mouth, the watch lady had already opened the doors.
“I’m opening the door for some ventilation. Did a big gust of wind get in?”
The auntie pretended as if she didn’t see him at all. It was a warm-hearted act indeed.
