Tomb Raider: What the hell is this strange commission?

Chapter 156 Luminous Message

After staying in Lop Nur for nearly three weeks, Chi Yu felt that his breath seemed to be filled with the smell of dry sand.

Fortunately, Xie Yuchen didn't want to stay in this place any longer. After finally "finding" the missing guide and surveyor, they returned to the camp, quickly packed their bags, and drove away from Lop Nur.

Leaving the desolate no-man's land, the signal reconnected them with the world. Xie Yuchen dialed the number of an assistant and asked the other party to arrange their return trip.

So when they arrived in Korla again, the airport had already prepared for their boarding.

The clear sky was extremely blue. Chi Yu boarded the plane and submitted an application to terminate the commission above the clouds.

The huge torrent of data was immediately transformed into a settlement interface and placed in front of him.

[Completed: core objectives, additional objectives]

[End of the visit to Stranger Territory]

[Loot: Exploration Experience +2200, Crystal Fragment +95, Rough Red Gold +2700, Luminous Suitcase +1]

[Level increase: Lv.113—＞Lv.118 (300/400)]

[Operator Lumina has submitted a special message to you. Please click to view the details. ]

Chi Yu looked at the extra props in his backpack and blinked.

Unlike the common standard suitcases, it was a long box with a more prominent length. It did not look like the type that Liu Ming was used to using, but rather seemed to be specially prepared for him.

It’s just that it’s not convenient to take it out and check it right now, and I don’t know what’s inside.

Chi Yu thought about it and clicked on the system message. A calm male voice appeared in his ears.

"On the battlefield, injuries are inevitable, whether it's you or your companions. We regret that we can't stay by your side and provide you with more help."

"Dr. Kal'tsit has strictly prohibited us from continuing to provide you with reliance permission. She believes that mixing different bloodlines together is very dangerous and uncontrollable, and we should not take the initiative to increase the burden on your body, Doctor."

"If any power is not restrained, it will only gradually collapse. We were not thoughtful enough in our previous actions, and we are very sorry. So after discussion, we changed our direction and chose to deliver a prop that may be useful to you."

"Although these props cannot be delivered directly to you in many cases, as long as we provide enough, there will always be one or two that you will get. The fact that you can hear this message is the best proof."

"The box I sent you contains the equipment that Operator Mizuki and I researched together. He is really a very capable person. When making this item, many good ideas were proposed by him. As expected, I still have a lot to learn from you..."

"Ahem, I think I got off track... Sorry, Doctor. The detailed introduction and instructions for use of this equipment are all recorded in a book and placed in the box. As for what it is, please allow me to keep it a secret for now."

"I hope you will like the gift we carefully prepared for you, and I also hope Peilin can soothe your pain, Doctor."

As the voice playback ended, the scrolling interface also stopped. Chi Yu lowered his eyes and extracted the information he needed from the words.

Kal'tsit believed that the operator's strength would put a burden on his body after relying on it too many times, so she temporarily stopped this behavior.

However, other people in Rhodes Island seemed to have been stuffing things into his system, including but not limited to snacks and props.

For example, he still had most of the white sand stick candy left, and he hadn't touched any of Furong's nutritious meals...

Thinking of those lunch boxes and the nutritional formulas that came with them, Chi Yu's eyes wandered for a moment, but he quickly retracted his distracted attention.

What kind of gift will Lumen and Shuiyue come up with together? In fact, we can tell from the commonalities between these two operators.

If the actual effect of the equipment is what he imagined, then it doesn't seem to be much different from having a few more skills.

Chi Yu thought about it and glanced at Xie Yuchen who was sitting opposite him.

After two weeks of rest, although the other party still looked a little tired, they were no longer as pale and weak as when they first came out of the Tomb of the Sun.

The deep scars were hidden under the clothes; they might have healed or perhaps new flesh had not yet grown.

That was originally a problem that Chi Yu didn't need to worry about, but the system would always provide him with the props that were most suitable for him at the moment as rewards.

So... could it be a coincidence?
