VCRMM: Chapter 300

In the test passage, Yin Xing finally made the last stroke and put down the carving knife in his hand.

His sense of realism has been adjusted to 80%. This meant that after concentrating for a long time, he felt slightly tired.

At this moment, he looked at the stone slab in front of him and frowned slightly, feeling dissatisfied.

Based on his solid drawing skills, he could tell at a glance that the patterns carved on the stone slab were slightly different from the original picture.

After all, there were differences between a carving knife and a painting brush. In addition, he hadn’t drawn for over a year. His skills were inevitably rusty.

Yin Xing inwardly sighed. Perhaps he would fail this test. He didn’t know if Changan had succeeded.

At this time, a system notification popped up.

[Ding~ The similarity of this inscription pattern reproduction is about 96%. The evaluation level: S.]

[Ding~ Congratulations on successfully passing the test of Small Round Biscuit.]

[You have gained the recognition of Small Round Biscuit. The test channel has been opened. You can continue to move forward.]

The moment the system notifications popped up, the stone slab and carving tools in front of Yin Xing disappeared. The tightly closed door at the end of the passage slowly opened, allowing a bit of light to come in.

Yin Xing couldn’t help blinking.

He actually succeeded? Wasn’t it a requirement to achieve a 100% reproduction?

He had some doubts, but Yin Xing couldn’t help feeling excited. Was the inheritance of an inscription master at the end of this road?

He exhaled slowly. To be on the safe side, he took out the big hammer again. He held it in his hand and walked carefully towards the light.

The small amount of light wasn’t dazzling in the darkness. Rather, it was somewhat soft, like the old man who had been waiting alone for many years, gazing with satisfaction at the long-awaited first latecomer.

Due to his shrunken body, he walked on this stone path and the stone walls on both sides appeared particularly high.

Even though he couldn’t see the patterns on the stone wall clearly, Yin Xing felt a sense of historical heaviness. It was heavy and exuded a strong vitality.

The flying effect on his body was over. He could only rely on his legs to walk this long distance.

Looking at the huge door of light, Yin Xing inexplicably felt the feeling of a pilgrimage in his heart. Fatigue was gradually accumulating, but such walking was nothing compared to blacksmithing.

He didn’t know how long he had walked this road, but in the end, he only knew that he had to keep moving forward, forward, and forward.

He had to keep going as long as he had feeling in his legs.

Finally, the door of light was so close that he felt like he could reach it.

Yin Xing felt a burst of joy.

The team channel was always quiet. He thought that Changan had probably passed the test and was waiting for him behind the door of light.

Just as he was about to step out of the passage, Yin Xing’s feet suddenly stopped. He felt as if he had stepped on something…

Splash.

Something liquid poured down on his head, catching him off guard and soaking him all over.

Since his sense of realism was quite high, Yin Xing could even feel the stickiness of his wet clothes sticking to his skin.

However, there didn’t seem to be any other discomfort.

He wiped his face with his hand and looked at the liquid in the light. Based on the information detected, he found that it was dew from the leaves of the Siasa banyan tree, not the poison he had imagined.

There was no negative status added to his status bar due to the liquid.

The confused Yin Xing took out a handkerchief from his backpack. He wiped the liquid stains on his face and shook his sleeves.

What did this mean?

Before receiving the inheritance, did he have to undergo a final baptism? But compared to a baptism, he felt that this was more like a harmless prank.

At this moment, the system notification appeared in front of him

[Ding~ Small Round Biscuit has played a trick on you. Before the dew completely dries up, you will be surrounded by a lucky halo. During this period, your luck attribute is +100%.]

[Small Round Biscuit says to you: Hehe, you are both unlucky and lucky. How interesting~]

Yin Xing carefully read the system notifications twice. Then he looked at the status bar and saw that it did say ‘Luck +100%.’ He couldn’t help being confused again.

Could it still be like this?

This sprite’s pranks… were really special.

“Hmm? Do you like him?”

In a corner that Yin Xing hadn’t noticed, Xu Sili was watching all of this silently. He couldn’t help looking at the sprite boy and he asked in a low voice.

Small Round Biscuit gave him a strange look, and said evasively, “Why do you think so? I just played a trick on him!”

Xu Sili didn’t expose it and just said ‘oh’ faintly.

He already knew that sprites were a bunch of naughty kids who said one thing and meant another. They would play tricks if they liked someone, and then give some luck after playing the trick.

However, did the person want this luck?

Obviously, Yin Xing wanted it.

Since he had already been tricked, why shouldn’t he take advantage of it?

He looked at his wet clothes and ignored it for the time being. He also carefully put his wet handkerchief back into his backpack.

He took advantage of the luck bonus and continued to cheer himself up. Then with some anticipation, he raised his foot and stepped into the light gate.

A huge and empty secret room appeared before his eyes. The glowing inscriptions on the stone wall, which had been magnified by several times, became even more stunningly beautiful.

Yin Xing stared blankly at the scene in front of him.

The construction technique of this stone chamber couldn’t be considered sophisticated, but at this moment, it revealed a different type of beauty in his eyes.

He admired it silently until…

“Ah Xing?”

Deng Jianan asked cautiously in the team’s voice chat, “How are things going over there?”

In fact, Deng Jianan had been troubled for a long time because he hadn’t seen the other person coming out. On the one hand, he wanted to ask about the situation. On the other hand, he was worried about disturbing Yin Xing.

Finally, he asked a question after two hours.

What he didn’t know was that Yin Xing’s time was mostly wasted on walking. It hadn’t taken him much time to pass the test.

In the Siasa Ruins, it was better to have a wind elementalist accompany him or he would have no idea how long it took to walk from the entrance to the test passage.

Yin Xing came back to his senses and said in the voice channel, “I passed the test. How about you?”

“F*k, Brother, did you really pass the test?”

“Yes.”

“Ahh, do you have any hints? Tell me now. I was kicked out within a few minutes of entering.”

Deng Jianan continued excitedly, “Have you turned on the video? Share it with me later so that I can make some strategy materials for the ruins!”

There was a video but… were there any strategy tips?

Yin Xing hesitated for a moment before asking, “Was your test also to reproduce the inscription?”

“Yes.”

“If the reproduction is 96% similar, it will pass the test,” he answered truthfully. “I originally thought it would have to be 100%. I didn’t expect there to be a certain degree of deviation.”

“……”

Deng Jianan was silent for a moment before saying, “Bigshot, are you serious?”

A reproduction that was 96% similar? What was the difference between this and a 100% reproduction?

The key was that they had to rely entirely on themselves. The system wouldn’t give them any help!

“Seriously,” Yin Xing said. He looked up at the huge and empty space that seemed extremely spacious to him now.

So, where was the inheritance of the inscription master?

“What do you do in real life?” Deng Jianan couldn’t help asking.

“I used to be a designer.”

“……”

Okay, Deng Jianan was discouraged.

This inheritance test was too unfriendly to those who were bad at drawing!

Then he soon became happy again. “So, you got the inheritance?”

“Not yet.”

At this time, Yin Xing finally saw something that seemed to be related to the inheritance.

It was a box that was almost as high as his waist. It was placed in the secret room, and he had to walk a long way before he saw it.

It was just that the style of the box made him feel like it was somewhat new. It wasn’t like something from a hundred years ago.

“This test is too troublesome.”

Deng Jianan said, “I don’t think I can learn this inheritance, but it isn’t a loss for you to get it.”

Soon, he became happy again.

“Once you get the inheritance of the inscription master, can I use your video to make another video?”

“By the way, can this inheritance be taught to many people, or can it only be taught to one person?”

He was talking in the channel while Yin Xing had already opened the box.

He looked at the neatly stacked tokens inside. He couldn’t help showing a complex expression.

He had seen this token on the Star Forum.

The color might be different, but… wasn’t this the color-changed version of the card master’s job transfer certificate? It couldn’t be called the same, it was exactly identical.

Yin Xing picked up one token. He tried to take another one, but the system prompted that he could only take one piece. He had to give up.

He looked at the notes on the voucher, which had coordinates written on it. The inheritance of the inscription master should be in Imperial City.

He could go there to study with the certificate.

It wasn’t explicitly stated, but given the nature of the game, it was impossible to learn without a certificate.

Therefore, this inheritance should be something that many people could learn.

The design was actually very consistent with the game routine, but Yin Xing just felt a bit disappointed.

The mysterious feeling about the inscription master and the desolate feeling of history suddenly dissipated a lot…

He frowned while vaguely feeling that something was wrong.

Yin Xing suddenly raised his head, released his spiritual strength, and observed his surroundings carefully.

“Is anyone there?”

He asked in a loud voice, but his voice dissipated before even hitting the stone wall of the secret room. Naturally, there was no echo.

There was no response.

Yin Xing frowned. He always felt that someone was planning all of this behind the scenes.

If he followed the game team’s design ideas for this inheritance, what was placed here shouldn’t be a box containing a certificate, but a real inheritance.

So, before he came here, someone must’ve been here and took away the inheritance!

The image of the sprite boy flashed in Yin Xing’s mind. Could it be him?

However, this speculation couldn’t be confirmed.

It happened that Deng Jianan asked him a question in the voice chat, so Yin Xing told him his speculation and the fact that this inheritance should be learnable by many people.

Deng Jianan was also a bit confused. “So, the NPC is secretly going through the plot without telling us again?”
