BXBX NOVEL Chapter 66 - A Wide Assortment Of Items?
"There will be the people from the clans waiting for use outside. So make sure that you two are on your best behavior." The head guard spoke to his fellow guards.
\'Oh? So these two are not from the city… Hmm, perhaps I should gather where they came from and maybe then I\'ll get some clues as to who\'s backing the clans. If they were from the city, then they would have known who the people from the clans were.\' Shirong thought to himself as he listened to their conversation.
Shirong had only been able to recognize the head guard as he had seen him before when they left for the forbidden zone thus he just thought that all guards from the city. But seeing their numbers and cultivation bases, it was apparent that they could not be from the city, as there would simply not be enough people with that level of cultivation bases.
"Damn, hopefully the system finishes its scan before we enter the city. I don\'t know what will happen if I am summoned midway." Lin Wu muttered to himself.
Five more minutes passed, and the six people were now right in front of the city gates. They could not directly fly into the city as that was against the rules and would be punishable by a fine and prison time. This was rather common law and was applicable to almost all major cities and capitals.
Still, there were exceptions to this rule and certain people could directly fly in the city. Shirong was one of the cultivators who had the permission to do so, but the other five did not. Also, with the people from the clans meeting them outside, there wasn\'t much he could do.

SCANNING: Completed.
OBJECTS: Identified= 258 | Unidentified= 3
NOTIFICATION: Please view the detailed description in the relevant window.

Finally, the system had finished scanning all the objects and the notification popped up with a long list of objects that it had scanned.
"Right in time!" Lin Wu said and then looked over the list.
Most of the objects in the list were not that unusual and thus did not incite Lin Wu\'s interest. But the most interesting things were none other than the objects that were unidentifiable. This meant that they were the reason behind the system\'s long process.
While Lin Wu could not see the information about these unidentified objects, he could still see their appearance in the window.
The first object looked like a piece of rubber that had a strange pink color. There was no spirit qi coming from it either, thus Lin Wu was wondering if it was just some trash. But then, seeing that it was in Shirong\'s spatial storage ring, he thought otherwise.
The second unidentifiable object was a rolled up sheet of paper that was about half a meter long. Unlike the previous object though, this one had a certain kind of aura on it. It wasn\'t spirit qi though; it was different than that.
\'Hmm, it\'s definitely something valuable.\' Lin Wu thought.
The third and final object was a pendant that was crafted from a blue stone of some kind. It had a rather simple circular shape, if not for the unique character that was imprinted on both of its sides. Lin Wu could tell that they were different from the writing of this world, or at least wasn\'t the one that he had seen.
The system had already learned the language of this world, thus Lin Wu didn\'t really have any problem with it and it was as if he had known it all along. But this pendant had an additional thing mentioned in the list- Error!: cannot be scanned.
This was the only object which was unable to be identified because it could not be scanned.
"System, why could you not scan this pendant?" Lin Wu asked, feeling a bit surprised.
~Ding~
——
ANSWER: The pendant has a certain kind of a barrier that the system cannot go through. The complexity of the barrier is higher than any other that the system has seen till now and will require further analysis to deduce the method.
——
"Interesting…" Lin Wu muttered as he looked at the jade pendant.
He then looked back at the list, reading through the objects that were actually identified. Lin Wu had asked the system to tell him the most valuable and powerful objects out of all of them, thus the system had ordered them according to that.
He first set the filter to the most valuable object and was presented with the most obvious choices.
"Huh, so the spirit stones are the most valuable object here? But wait, aren\'t they of different types why are they classified together…" Lin Wu said as he then saw a small drop down arrow.
He focused on it and the list expanded even more, showing that the high grade spirit stones were of the highest value.
\'Ah… I see now. Similar types of objects will be grouped together and can be sorted further.\' Lin Wu thought to himself.
He then saw that the rest of the valuable objects were just different assortments of alchemical pills. There were about twenty types of pills in the ring and from reading the description, Lin Wu got to know of their uses. There were pills that helped in cultivation, pills that were for healing, and even pills that were for "Special needs".
"Hehe, men are the same everywhere, whether it be my previous world or a cultivation world like this."
