Chapter 210 I'll Help You
After a while.
Li You sat in a corner of the laboratory, looking bored and watching.
On the side, the "collector" wearing a robe and carrying a container jar on his back, in addition to fiddling with those messy alchemical instruments, would look back at him from time to time.
Li You did not explain his identity to the collector. Anyway, this island was already in chaos, and it was normal for one or two weirdos to appear. The collector did not ask much, he still had things to do.
As for the protagonist of the game, Cell Man, he had been pushed by Li You to the Avenue of the Sinners.
In the Avenue of the Sinners, you can get an important rune, the vine rune, which is very important for opening up the road behind... I hope to hear good news from him.
And now, Li You is confirming his system panel.
[Contact with the residents of this world has been completed, the system is being updated, and the new world rewards will be issued soon. ]
[Please note that due to the difference in the world background, this reward extraction will be changed to fixed props issuance. ]
[Received: Cell Collector. ]
[Please confirm your props in the system backpack. 】
Li You was a little surprised, but after thinking about it carefully, if he followed the previous extraction principle, he really couldn't get anything useful, so this is actually better.
As for this cell collector, it is actually a huge syringe, which looks like the same model as the collector's.
[Cell collector: a prop dedicated to collecting "cells" that have a probability of appearing in the bodies of mutated organisms on the island. It will automatically absorb the available cells, and BOSS cells need to be absorbed manually. ]
[Note: To be honest, this thing is unexpectedly quite sturdy and durable. I think it's not a problem to use it to fight zombies... Do you want to try it? ]
Li You:?
In the world of Dead Cells, the system's notes are beginning to match the game style, right?
In front of the collector, Li You casually took out the workbench briefcase, unfolded it in front of him, and turned it into a small table.
As Li You expected, the collector was not surprised to see him take out a large box out of thin air, but was more interested in the bottles and jars on the table.
This is not difficult to understand. After all, even the monsters in this world can teleport with you. It is not surprising that the strong can use some space magic.
"... You also know alchemy?" After hesitating for a while, the collector still asked.
Li You looked at the "potion making" branch option in his survival skills, thought about it, and said: "No... I only know some basic knowledge of potions, and I have no practical experience."
The collector sighed in disappointment and went back to continue tinkering with his things.
Li You knew why he was so anxious and disappointed, because the collector in front of him was actually the alchemist who cooperated with the king in the background story.
He originally came to the island to develop the Philosopher's Stone for the king, but because of his careless experiment and the negligence of his men, a leak occurred, causing changes in the entire island. The collector has been seeking solutions and remedies for this.
From an objective point of view, it cannot be said that the collector has no responsibility, but at least he is much better than the scum king.
Li You is also very interested in the achievements that collectors can make, including the Philosopher's Stone and the panacea mentioned later.
But there is no rush now. He still plans to sort out his previous gains first to deal with the combat power level in this world that may be higher than he expected.
So Li You looked at his achievement panel and system backpack again.
In the world of Sekiro, in addition to the big head of the Sakura Dragon Crystal, the system props also gave a lot.

…
Finally, the main quest.
[Sekiro main quest: Survive in "Ashina Country" for one month, completed. ]
[Quest rewards: All attributes +1, Ten Perfect Rosary × 1, Miscellaneous Storage Box × 1, Backpack Space × 5, Battlefield in the Heart unlocked. ]
In general, the achievements in the world of Sekiro belong to the category of not many props given, but many achievement points.
However, these rewarded props are not just for the sake of numbers, and many of them have good functions.
For example, the three crooked-mouthed gourds rewarded by different achievements, after Li You received them all, they automatically merged into one prop.
[Withered crooked-mouthed gourd: The light yellow crooked-mouthed gourd contains a liquid that can cure common abnormal conditions, and it can also temporarily improve resistance after use. ]
Li You has also tried it. This gourd at least has a significant effect on ordinary poisoning, and it should be useful in the world of Dead Cells.
At the same time, another prop given by the Undead Killer achievement, the Soul Calling Bell, has great potential in Li You's opinion.
[Soul Summoning Bell: After shaking, it can summon the soul of the dead and talk to it. The specific effect depends on the condition of the soul. ]
[In some special worlds, there may also be wonderful changes. ]
Seeing this, Li You immediately thought of the "Soul Summoning Bell" of the Elden Ring, which is used to summon the soul in the ashes to help fight.
Looking at the item description, will he be able to summon souls when he goes to the world of the old man's ring in the future?
Even if not, the ability to summon souls and talk to them is already very helpful in many cases-the premise is that they can really communicate smoothly.
The note in the system description has already explained that it may not be that simple...
Then there are the four items of the Endless Wine Flask, the White Ape Suit, the Fish Scale Soft Armor, and the Thunder Magatama.
The Endless Wine Flask is a small wine flask that can continuously gush out wine. After each drink, you only need to wait for 24 hours before it will be filled again.
As for the taste, it seems to be randomly selected from the four famous wines of Ashina.
Li You: "If Yi Xin saw this thing, wouldn't he be so greedy that he would cry?"
The White Ape Suit is a bit weird. It looks like a doll suit. Once put on, it will turn into a layer of ape skin, providing the wearer with quite good attribute bonuses, but it will also cause the way of thinking and behavior habits to gradually lean towards the lion ape.
When Li You first got this thing in the world of Sekiro, he originally held the principle of "strength is beauty" and tried it on, but the result was... The next second he screamed "Mmmm" and ran up the tree.
Yuzu, Edge: "???"
Edge: "Li You, what are you doing, Li You!"
Li You finally came to his senses, strengthened his will, and took off this suit.
Luckily, they had already left Ashina Castle and were fishing at the Hirata mansion three years ago. Otherwise, if this scene was seen by others, Li You felt that he could take out the big treasure in the system backpack and die with all Ashina.
It was because of this that Edge couldn't help laughing when he saw him until he traveled through the world.
Li You: "..."
Oh my god, black history +1.
Naturally, he threw this suit into the deepest part of his backpack and never wanted to see it again.
Then there is the fish scale breastplate. This is a scale-like soft armor, thin and breathable but tough, which can be worn inside the suit. It has good resistance to swords and bullets and has no side effects.
So Li You put it on himself after letting Night Demon Little White Mouse confirm it.
As for the Thunder Magatama, it is a bit useless. It is a wearable magatama that allows people to cast the Thunder of Ba. After using it five times, you need to rest and recharge.
In fact, when he first got it, Li You gave this thing to Yi Xin. When Yi Xin led the Yu Jiamei army to break the inner palace, he was wearing it. And after the war, he also returned it to Li You.
However, Li You can now rely on the Sakura Dragon Divine Crystal to generate electricity by himself... No, it can't be used when setting off thunder.
So he decided to give it to Aggie or Yuzu.
In addition, the Sakura Dragon Achievement also gave three pieces of Source Glaze, which is good, and can be integrated into weapons and equipment, which is equivalent to adding infinite durability BUFF.
But the problem is that with Li You's current forging technology level, he can't handle this thing at all, and it can only be covered with dust.
The remaining props include the Ten Perfect Prajna Beads, the Prajna Mask, the Dragon Talisman, Jiulang's Amulet, and finally a sundries storage box.
[Shiquan rosary: A rosary with the power of protection, which can significantly improve the holder's physique and can be effective without wearing it. 】
[Prajna Mask: The pale Yaksha mask once worn by the monk who broke the precepts. It has a very high defense power. It can also increase the wearer's aura and cause psychological oppression to others. 】
[Dragon Talisman: Permanently increase the types of goods that system merchants can provide. 】
But what Li You cares about most is this.
[Jiulang's amulet: The amulet handmade by Long Yinqingzi Jiulang can resist bad luck and improve luck to a certain extent. 】
Li You when he first saw this thing: "!!!"
finally! I got an item that can increase my luck!
...Although, "to a certain extent" is too vague, right?
Why did the original gun "drop sharply" directly? ?
Although Li You was full of complaints, he must have put away the props that could improve his luck.
——It was stored in the final prop, the miscellaneous storage box.
[Wooden Box for Storage of Sundries: A wooden box that can store three types of sundries: clothing, accessories, and materials. It has a large space inside, and the effects of the props stored in it can work normally. 】
[Note: Do not store weapons and equipment! Otherwise, there will be consequences at your own risk! 】
Although the note seems a bit strange, I have to say that this thing is really thoughtful.
Li You now has a lot of miscellaneous props on his body, and many of them are used to add BUFF.
The far ones are like attack and defense coins, and the close ones are all the ones above.
Because there were so many small props, even though the space in his system backpack was increasing, it was still not enough. He had to take out many small gadgets that did not take up space and hang them on himself.
As you can imagine, that would be extremely inconvenient.
Now, most of the problem is solved.
These are the main props for achievement rewards, and there is only one left at the end.
Li You looked at the wrist-mounted grappling hook catapult on his wrist.
This prop has also changed now and is integrated with the new prop.
【Mysterious Wrist Guards】
[Item description: A product that combines unique mechanism techniques with modern technology. It can pop out a grappling hook up to twenty meters long. It can be firmly grasped on any object. It can also consume mental power and transform into five types of ninja tools to exert different effects. . 】
[Convertible Ninja Tools: Glazed Shuriken, Glazed Umbrella, Glazed Flame, Mist Crow Feather, Crybaby. 】
When receiving the Ninja Tool Master achievement reward, the five ninja tools he selected were fused with the grappling hook catapult, and then he had this pair of wrist guards.
Li You was very satisfied with this. He was originally worried that this achievement would give five props at once, which would be troublesome to use. Unexpectedly, he did not expect to solve it at once, and also helped him strengthen the grappling hook.
But at first, the wristband could only be changed to the basic style of ninja, and Li You felt a little disappointed.
Fortunately, the system gave a prompt that you can consume the colored glaze of the source to strengthen the selected ninja tool, so Li You used the colored glaze he got from the Seven-faced Warrior in the Palace of Source, and finally got the enhanced type. five pieces of ninja tools.
Some of them are not in the game, such as the Glazed Umbrella, which is equivalent to a fusion of the Vermilion Bird Red Lotus Umbrella and the Phoenix Purple Green Umbrella, while the Glazed Burning Fire is a Glazed Pure Fire with the addition of ordinary flame effects.
After using it, Li You gave it a five-star rating.
Two wishes fulfilled at once, so beautiful.
That’s it for organizing the props. Although there is actually a more mysterious item that is not a system reward, but it is also a prop that has been certified by the system. It was the mask that Li You collected fragments from in the Sekiro world and finally synthesized it.
【Dragon Dance Mask】
[Item description: A dance mask with a dragon head, made of broken pieces. Wear this mask and dance for the dragon. If you are pious enough, you can receive the dragon's protection and borrow its divine power to be effective even across the world. 】
Li You: "emmmmmmm..."
This thing is available in the Sekiro game. According to the item description, it is indeed used for this.
Then what? Does the system just copy everything?
The problem is, now that Sakura Dragon has been killed by him, he is dancing in a mask? Who are you dancing to?
Li You looked confused while holding the mask.
So he specifically asked Ai Ji to try it, and then he realized that the effect of this thing was really to communicate with the Sakura Dragon Divine Crystal in his body.
However, the Sakura Dragon Divine Crystal was restless. When it stimulated it, Li You immediately felt as if it wanted to rush out of his chest, and quickly asked Ai Ji to stop.
This mask is of no use for the time being. Let it eat dust together with the missionary props obtained from Biochemistry 4.
Li You finished sorting out the system backpack and took a look at the lottery opportunities and enhancement coupons on the panel, and he had some ideas.
He has now accumulated a lot of enhancement coupons and achievement points. He can indeed take them out and use them. There is no point in keeping them there.
But there is no rush to do it immediately. In the world of Dead Cells, there is a powerful blacksmith. Li You plans to meet this person first and then see how to strengthen it cost-effectively.
Maybe the pieces of Origin Glaze in his backpack can be used?
Li You immediately closed the system panel and looked at the collector aside.
He remembered clearly that the blacksmith and the collector were in a cooperative relationship, so the collector must know where the blacksmith was now.
Li You thought for a while and figured out how to ask.
But just as he was about to speak, the iron door at the entrance on the other side was pushed open violently, and then a familiar figure walked in.
Seeing him, Li You was also slightly stunned.
Cell Man.
"You resurrected again so quickly?"
Cell Man: "..."
It can be seen that he wanted to give Li You an international friendly gesture, but the vague aura around Li You made the sensitive Cell Man feel a little timid, so he just wanted to extend his middle finger but stopped, and finally shook his head.
Li You smiled and asked again: "How is it, did you find what you want in the Avenue of the Sinners?"
After hearing this, the Cell Man suddenly reached into the flame on his neck, fumbled inside for a few times, and then took out a nearly triangular stone with shining runes engraved on it.
Li You: "..."
Yes, this storage method is hardcore enough.
And he didn't need to look at it to know that it was the vine rune.
Li You nodded: "Not bad, with this, you can now reach places that you couldn't go before."
"Where did you go just now?"
The Cell Man gestured and made Li You understand what he meant.
Li You was slightly surprised. It turned out that after getting the vine rune, the cell man went to the high wall barrier and successfully crossed the barrier to reach the exit of the prison, the black bridge.
Then he was sent back by the monster on the black bridge.
"Escape from prison is a great achievement, but it is a miracle to hold the bridge."
Li You suddenly remembered this sentence and almost laughed out loud.
What? It seems that there is nothing funny?
In fact, the original text of this sentence is, "Crossing" the bridge is tantamount to a miracle.
The gatekeeper of the Black Bridge, the Guardian, can be regarded as the first BOSS in the game, and players are generally used to calling it... the Giver.
There is no way, this guy is really not difficult to fight as an early BOSS.
However, in terms of setting, the plot strength of the Guardian is still very strong.
It is the incarnation of the original prison warden Castan. In the plot, it blocked the road between the prison and the village with its own strength.
For the cell man who has just started reincarnation, the difficulty of the Guardian may indeed be a little greater.
Li You thought about it and decided to put aside his aversion to the original cell man and help him.
So he said, "Let's go, we'll go together this time."
