I'm a male god in Liyue

"Progress bar has reached 100%, you have received a diamond treasure chest reward."

I finally got my second diamond chest ahead of schedule.

Xia Zhi glanced at his inventory, remembered the [Hourglass of Time], hesitated for a moment, and did not choose to open the treasure chest immediately, but continued to urge everyone to eat.

After the meal, everyone chatted for a while before Zhongli and Grandma Ping said their goodbyes and left together, but Yaoyao stayed behind.

Xiangling then took Guoba and said goodbye. Wanmintang was not closed today, and Master Mao was still busy. She had to go back to help her father.

Xia Zhi called Xiang Ling over, took a food box from the kitchen and handed it to her. Inside were some extra dishes that he had specially set aside while cooking, so that she could take them back and let Chef Mao try them too.

Xiangling carried the heavy food box, feeling a warm feeling in her heart, and thanked them with a smile.

After cleaning up and washing the dishes, everyone went out for a walk together.

There were an unusually large number of people on the streets tonight, and the moon in the sky seemed exceptionally round.

This was the first time Yanfei and Qiqi had participated in such an after-dinner activity, but their reactions to it were completely different.

Yan Fei has a generous personality and often interacts with all kinds of people. She just thought that this kind of group outing was quite interesting.

Qiqi prefers quiet and usually only walks in places where there are no people. Now, walking on the crowded and noisy street, she felt a little lost and confused. Fortunately, Yaoyao, who was beside her, held her hand very considerately, giving her a sense of security.

The process was the same as usual, except I tried fewer new things, since I had eaten too well and was too full tonight and couldn't eat anything else.

There were pretty lanterns for sale along the way, so each of us bought a different style and carried it in our hands.

We strolled all the way to the pier, and as night fell, fireworks went off.

The fireworks tonight were exceptionally beautiful.

Its blooming period is also exceptionally long.

Xia Zhi looked down at the reflections of light and shadow on the sea and smiled.

Just like last time, Yao Yao came over and reached out to hold her older brother's hand to comfort him.

Qi Qi looked on, hesitated for a moment, and then walked over and silently took Xia Zhi's other hand.

Xia Zhi smiled and gently held the two small hands, one cold and one warm.

That kind-hearted girl is so lovable.

After watching the spectacular fireworks, Gan Yu escorted Yao Yao back home. She herself was going back to Yujingtai to rest that night. She had been on holiday for two days, and tomorrow she would be going back to Yuehaiting as a secretary.

Qiqi is going back to Bubulu, so we can go together on the way.

Yan Fei waved goodbye.

"I had a great time today, let's hang out together again next time!"

"Ah."

The three of them walked slowly back to the shop as usual.

After taking a shower, Xia Zhi returned to her room, lit calming incense, and took out the [Hourglass of Time] she had obtained that day.

A small hourglass appeared in his hand.

Xia Zhi examined it for a while, then turned it upside down.

The sands of time in the hourglass began to slowly leak out.

At the same time, the smoke rising from the incense burner suddenly stopped.

Time stands still.

Xia Zhi held the hourglass and slowly retreated. When he had retreated about 3 meters, the incense burner on the table suddenly returned to normal, and the smoke began to drift away.

Xia Zhi took another step forward, and the incense burner fell still once more.

This means that the time-stopping range of the [Hourglass of Time] is approximately 3 meters in radius.

Xia Zhi turned the hourglass upright, stopping time. The sands of time that had just flowed down began to flow back slowly, though very slowly.

Returning to the table, Xia Zhi took out a piece of paper, tore it in half, and then turned the hourglass upside down.

Turn back time.

The scene before my eyes was like a video played in reverse; the paper that had been torn in two automatically came back together and became a complete sheet of paper again.

Xia Zhi glanced at the hourglass and noticed that the sands of time were flowing down much faster than before.

This means that the cost of time reversal is much greater than the cost of time stagnation.

Xia Zhi placed the hourglass in its correct position; he had basically figured out how to use the item and its effects.

He then looked at the diamond chest in his inventory, took it out, and then chose to open it.

A pair of dark gloves appeared before his eyes.

Hand of Shadows

Quality: Diamond.

Type: Special Equipment.

Characteristics: Poisonous, stealing, learning from others.

Effects: Automatically master poisons and become a poison master; upon contact with an opponent, you can obtain any item carried by that opponent; upon contact with an opponent, you can randomly learn one of their abilities (cooldown time is 24 hours).

Hidden effect: The effects of two-handed skills and stealth skills are increased by 100%.

Another piece of special equipment.

The effect is quite unique. Although it doesn't grant Xia Zhi the ability to directly become a god like [Radiant Wings], it does provide a "copying" ability with a higher ceiling.

In theory, given enough time, he could learn all of Zhongli's abilities.

However, he now possesses the [Hourglass of Time], which allows him to rewind time, restore the treasure chest to its original state, and draw it again.

You might get a better one, but you might also get a worse one.

Xia Zhi pondered for a moment, then abandoned the idea.

This [Shadow Hand] is good enough. Its concealment effect also enhances [Helper's Hat] and [Massage Master], and its growth potential is very high. There is no need for him to gamble on other possibilities.

Xia Zhi put the [Shadow Hand] into his inventory and equipped it directly.

Special equipment will be equipped to the character panel and will not appear in reality. Of course, Xia Zhi can make them appear if he wants.

Poisoning, administering poison, quenching poison, detoxifying... all sorts of knowledge related to poisons immediately came to mind.

At the same time, a system notification sound rang.

"The host already possesses the characteristic: Void Breaker."

"The Shadow Hand's special ability allows for theft and stealing of skills to be performed remotely, without the need for physical contact with the target."

Xia Zhi was somewhat surprised.

There are actually combination effects between these characteristics?

Chapter 120 The Value of a Poison Master

Based on the items Xia Zhi has obtained so far, only items of gold quality or higher possess special properties, and these properties increase in an ascending order.

Gold items have a unique property, such as the "Blazing Incense Burner," which is "fusion."

Platinum items have two properties, such as the Hourglass of Time, which has the properties of "time lag" and "time reversal".

Diamond items have three properties, such as [Radiant Wings], which have the properties "Skyward Flight", "Radiant Healing", and "Sky Piercing".

There is a very close relationship between the properties and the effects of items. For example, the "fusion" property of the [Blazing Incense Burner] can easily fuse various spices into one, greatly increasing the probability of making incense.

But the sudden system notification made Xia Zhi realize that the characteristics were not as simple as he had previously thought.

Combining the abilities "Sky Piercer" and "Thief" allows the "Thief" move to be activated remotely...

Xia Zhi couldn't help but think of the teleportation anchor point; when he first unlocked it, the system also emitted a similar notification sound.

"The host already possesses the characteristic: Void Breaker."

"Can I force the use of a teleportation anchor point? The target location is random. Do you want to use it?"

That time, it was also due to the "Sky-Breaking" feature.

It seems that there is compatibility between different characteristics and skills. As long as the compatibility between them is good enough and certain conditions are met, the skill will be enhanced by the characteristic and gain new special effects.

If that's the case, then Xia Zhi will have a new direction to choose from when acquiring extraordinary items in the future.

It's not just about looking at the effects of the item itself, but about choosing suitable characteristics to combine with the main skills the user currently possesses, in order to achieve a multiplier effect.

Xia Zhi raised his hand and looked at the scholar's ring on his finger.

This item has the "Amplification" trait.

From a purely rational perspective, this should be a very versatile feature, capable of being combined with any skill, but in reality, the system has not responded to it at all.

Therefore, it seems that there are still some limitations to the combination of traits and skills.

He currently possesses too few extraordinary items to reach an accurate conclusion, and can only put the matter aside for the time being.

Xia Zhi opened his inventory and took out a gold item that he had acquired before but had kept without using it.
