Chapter 318: Family Grotto-heaven Complete! The System Is Shameless!
【The game system has encountered an error. The selected family cave dwelling blueprint has more than 50% missing data. Recollecting data in progress…】
When Chen Han saw this prompt, he subconsciously thought of the situation when the system first activated.
When the game system has to recollect data, you definitely need to be mentally prepared, just like when a stray local dog in the village turned into a dog demon.
【Supplementary collection of family cave dwelling blueprint data in progress. Current integrity 51%…52%…62%…70%…85%…100%.】
【Level 1 Family Cave Dwelling Construction Scroll data collection complete. Constructing level 1 family cave dwelling… modifying cave mansion spirit vein…】
With this game prompt, everything quieted down again, and there was no more movement around.
Chen Han watched for a long while. After confirming, he finally let out a breath. It was good that the game system had not swallowed his reward.
No matter what, the family cave dwelling could finally be built.
The main thing was the spirit vein modification.
This should be the condition for the family cave dwelling to gain spiritual energy +
Only with this cave mansion spirit vein could the spiritual energy be increased by
Given the current situation, he could only wait until the cave dwelling was completed before coming up again to check.
In general, in this kind of situation, it was impossible for the construction to finish immediately.
So he climbed back up along the cliff edge to the mountaintop and again heard intense sounds of battle coming from that tent.
They were really loud. Was that girl not afraid of ruining her voice?
Chen Han shook his head and left directly. The man and woman inside had no idea that someone had silently passed by them twice outside.
Before long, Chen Han returned to the Chen Clan. He had been planning to take out an intermediate spirit stone to cultivate, but suddenly thought of something.
It was the USB drives that dropped from the Demon Extermination Instance.
Since those things were space materials, could they be refined in the artifact refining furnace? And would some attribute appear?
Once this thought arose, he could not suppress it no matter what.
He hurriedly left the courtyard again, went over to the artifact refining furnace, took out one USB drive, and put it into the furnace.
With a thought, a game prompt appeared:
【The current artifact refining furnace level is too low. It cannot refine space-type materials. Please use a more advanced artifact refining furnace for refinement!】
In other words, space materials could be refined, but this artifact refining furnace made of bricks and mud could not do it.
Artifact refining furnaces also had levels.
It was another trick from a game company to scam players into paying. Many game companies, in order to squeeze a bit more money from players, required you to purchase the artifact refining furnace to use it, and then upgrade it to refine higher-level items.
Seeing this, Chen Han put the USB drive back into the game warehouse, then returned to his residence, took out an intermediate spirit stone, and activated the 《Nine Heavens Profound Scripture advanced qi cultivation method》 to cultivate.
At the same time, he practiced Immortal Light Merging a bit. At this time, this spell seemed innately incompatible with him. The two currents of pale blue and white qi were extremely hard to coordinate into appearance.
…
The next day, when Chen Han got up, he still had not received any prompt that the family cave dwelling construction was complete.
After finishing cultivation in the special spiritual aperture and preparing medicinal cuisine for stewing at Uncle’s Kitchen, he opened Douyin to look at trending videos and check the situation online.
Two trending topics caught his attention.
One was another video related to Ming Di, that demonic cult rogue.
The other party had posted another video on the Chen Clan Dreamscape, and it was very popular.
The title was: 《We must snatch this magic treasure called Doubao from the Chen Clan!》
The title alone grabbed attention at a glance.
Chen Han, curious, clicked in to take a look.
“Friends of the Holy Cult, as everyone knows, I have been lurking in the Chen Clan for a long time. Because I feel the Chen Clan Dreamscape may be unfavorable to our Holy Cult, I have infiltrated the Chen Clan Dreamscape more than once.”
“That ‘Doubao AI Generated’ mark still gives me a sense of dread. After discussing with fellow practitioners through the Spirit Shadow Mirror, we all believe that ‘Doubao AI Generated’ may be the imprint left by some powerful magic treasure.”
“Moreover, this magic treasure may be crucial to the Chen Clan Dreamscape, so I ask fellow practitioners to help investigate clearly what kind of magic treasure this Doubao AI is.”
“I must snatch this magic treasure Doubao from the Chen Clan!”
After watching the video, Chen Han found the content actually pretty boring. But it just happened to ride the current hype, and with so many entertainers piling on, the video blew up.
Most importantly, it was Doubao again.
With people paying this much attention, tying it to cultivation, it was better than any advertisement effect. Douyin would definitely madly push traffic to it.
As for how effective the advertisement was, one only needed to look at the comment section.
“Haha, Lord Ming Di, that magic treasure is in my hand + （Doubao app screenshot）!”
“Ming Di big boss, I also have that magic treasure + （Doubao app screenshot）.”
“Haha, speaking of Doubao, it’s amazing. See screenshot + （Doubao app screenshot）.”
“……”
The comment section was like a gathering of super entertainers.
Chen Han smiled. Ming Di indeed had a strong ability to ride the heat. Most crucially, this guy was always lucky.
So this short, somewhat boring video still ranked very high on the hot search list.
Another trending topic drew his attention: 《Hacker Judge strikes again! Many people who took 500,000 joyfully receive silver handcuffs!》
This was something he wanted to follow.
After exposing that information online yesterday, he certainly did not want the people on that list to have a good time.
Seeing those people arrested one by one and joyfully receiving silver handcuffs, he felt at ease.
Good people they would not be, preferring instead to be dog legs for a bunch of beasts. Let them go to the sewing machine factory and reflect.
Before long, his junior sister arrived. “Senior brother.”
She had come to refine Beauty Pills and Body Tempering Pills, and deliberately leaned close to her senior brother to let him admire her a bit. After all, after taking Beauty Pills, her complexion had become much fairer.
Not just her face, but also her skin, even her cleavage.
So today she was wearing a sexy style of hanfu, like in the Tang dynasty, with the front revealing some cleavage.
The cleavage had become whiter too.
Wasn’t it said that men liked fair and tender skin?
Chen Han’s gaze obviously noticed. He coughed and hurriedly instructed, “Watch the medicinal cuisine. I need to go out for a bit.”
“Alright, senior brother.” Xiao Yu nodded, satisfied after showing off a bit in front of her senior brother, then turned and threw herself into alchemy.
She was already very skilled at refining Body Tempering Pills and could do it easily.
The main focus was the Beauty Pill.
She knew very well how effective this pill was for whitening.
After she and Xiao Mi Jie whitened, their skin made those national style internet celebrities so jealous they were dying, all asking what cosmetics or filters they used to become so naturally fair.
Chen Han left Uncle’s Kitchen, returned to the courtyard, and then checked the upgrade requirements for the sect residence:
Level: level 6 sect residence
…
Upgrade requirements: Money: （9342 million/200 million）. Reputation: （4,231,545/1,000,000）. Wish power: （54,255/100,000）. Feng Shui formation （2/2）. Three Talents Plants as a forest （not completed）.
Of the five upgrade conditions for the level 6 sect residence, only the requirements for reputation and Feng Shui formation had been completed.
There was still more than 120 million short in money.
So he thought of the anonymous foreign bank cards that had dropped previously and this time, then took out his mobile phone and called Mr. Liu, inviting him to his courtyard for tea.
Naturally, he wanted to ask how to check those anonymous foreign bank cards, and whether Mr. Liu had relevant channels.
Liu Ye had been busy with company matters, going over project data with his secretary. Seeing it was a call from the Chen Family Head, he answered immediately. “Hello, Chen Family Head, what can I do for you?”
Having previously received a bottle of Body Tempering Pills from him, he had experienced the benefits.
First, he could clearly feel his constitution improving and his body becoming healthier.
Second, he felt his vigor had returned to youth. Back at the company for two days, he even slept with the newly hired flirty secretary.
Previously, due to his illness, both legs had become deformed and he had to use a wheelchair. It had affected everything.
Now things were fine. Add to that having money, and that problem no longer existed.
The new flirty secretary was also very happy to sleep with him. Her salary had risen to 100,000 a month, and she had received a high-end watch.
And such miraculous health-preserving pills could only be found at the Chen Clan.
Really, if those tycoons knew the Chen Clan had such pills, they would cry and kneel at the door to beg for them.
Did he know what the most painful thing in the world was?
It was having a lot of money, with many social gatherings and banquets… especially those held by banks, where there were many fresh young goods to choose from.
These high-end goods were all original from the factory, young enough to be their daughters or granddaughters.
They had more money than they could spend, but their bodies…
That was the most painful thing.
Hearing the Chen Family Head invite him for tea, Liu Ye put everything down immediately and went to the patriarch’s courtyard.
By the time Liu Ye arrived, Chen Han had already brewed a pot of Premium Thunder Bamboo Spirit Tea. “Mr. Liu, please sit!”
Liu Ye sat down, took the tea handed over by Chen Han, took a sip, and then spoke very modestly. “Chen Family Head, if you have anything you need done, just tell me. I will definitely give my full effort.”
Chen Han did not waste words. He directly turned his palm, took out those anonymous foreign bank cards that had dropped from the game warehouse, and laid them out.
Liu Ye stared in surprise, not at the patriarch’s ancient technique of conjuring cards, but because he recognized those anonymous foreign bank cards.
Those anonymous foreign bank cards were not something anyone could get. The first time, you needed a certificate of deposit of at least 5 million US dollars to obtain one, and key point, they bore no interest.
From Liu Ye’s expression, Chen Han knew he recognized the cards, and asked with a smile, “Mr. Liu, you know these cards. Do you know how to check how much money is inside?”
“Chen Family Head, I can check for you right now,” Liu Ye said, taking out a mobile phone.
The phone was somewhat special, a model not seen publicly, with some special facility on the back.
It should be a phone customized for a certain special group.
Liu Ye opened an app on the phone, took one of the bank cards from Chen Han, and entered the account number.
Coincidentally, the password was also marked on the card. He entered it, and quickly saw the balance. “Chen Family Head, this card has over 7 million US dollars.”
Chen Han took the phone and saw the numbers.
Sure enough.
More than 7 million US dollars, nearly 50 million in local currency.
Crucially, Liu Ye was very familiar with this, which meant he also had anonymous foreign bank cards.
Sensing Chen Han’s surprise, Liu Ye explained, “Chen Family Head, in fact, many domestic tycoons have anonymous foreign bank cards, especially a certain kind of person. Otherwise, how could their sons and daughters live so freely overseas?”
“Money going out through normal channels would be discovered soon. Anonymous foreign bank cards are different. Not only do they protect privacy without needing an ID card tied to a real identity, but if you have the channels, dedicated intermediaries will handle all the middle steps.”
“Additionally, they are a good way to avoid regulatory scrutiny. For us businessmen, sometimes that is exactly what we value, and they are also convenient to use.”
Chen Han nodded in understanding and handed the phone back so Liu Ye could continue checking the other cards.
Liu Ye operated quickly. “The second card has over 3 million US dollars, the third has 35 million, the fourth…”
These were obviously cards where the initial 5 million had been spent, with leftovers remaining. Some had used up the initial 5 million and then had new deposits.
Money going in and out was normal.
Card after card, there were a total of 17 cards, with a total amount of more than 5 million US dollars, close to 550 million in local currency.
That was more than enough upgrade funds.
“Does the Chen Family Head want to cash out the money on these cards?” Liu Ye looked at the cards and seemed to understand his purpose.
Clearly the patriarch did not understand these much or know where they came from.
But that was unimportant, so he would not stupidly ask.
Knowing the situation and helping the patriarch solve the problem was enough.
Chen Han nodded slightly. “Mm, transferring the money directly into the country will definitely draw attention, right?”
“Not only would it draw attention, it might be frozen by regulators, and people would come ask about the source,” Liu Ye explained, then immediately took on the matter. “If the Chen Family Head wants to cash this out, I can help. I also need some reserve funds like this myself.”
“Also I know two or three tycoons who need such reserve funds. We can have them transfer money directly to the Chen Clan’s account as donations. I will then hand the anonymous foreign bank cards to them.”
“In this way no other channels are involved, and there is no link between the money here and there, let alone anyone tracking it.”
“Thank you, Mr. Liu.” Chen Han smiled and handed the cards over, not at all worried that Liu Ye would steal the money.
And through this, he understood that there were intermediaries doing this kind of work domestically as well.
Otherwise those sons, daughters, and family members living it up abroad could not possibly move such large sums themselves and turn them into money on anonymous foreign bank cards.
There had to be intermediaries who had a lot of money domestically and controlled large funds abroad.
After taking the cards, Liu Ye did not linger. He said goodbye and left with them, contacting people as soon as possible.
Since the Chen Family Head had finally given him a task, he had to handle it quickly.
…
In the afternoon, when the auspicious hour came again, the Chen Clan Genealogy registration continued.
Clan members who had not yet entered the genealogy were called to the Ancestral Hall to perform the registration ceremony.
Everyone was very proactive, as they all understood how important it was to be included in the genealogy.
Moreover, during the ceremony, someone had been punished by the ancestors and expelled from the genealogy, no longer considered part of the Chen Clan.
No one wanted to be the next.
At this time, Chen Yong, who had been punished, was already in the hospital. Lying face down on the bed, his expression was extremely ugly.
He had never expected that his toothache could not be cured no matter what. He took anti-inflammatory medicine, took other medication, even ruthlessly pulled the tooth out, only for another tooth to start hurting immediately.
The main issue was not even the teeth. During an examination yesterday, the images of his hemorrhoids had terrified him.
The doctor told him to have surgery. He did not dare hesitate and went straight into the operating room.
After the surgery, going to the toilet made him almost faint. He was in a state worse than death the entire night.
When he finally felt slightly better, he was awakened by pain again the next day. A slight movement made him hiss in cold air. They had already cut them, after all.
So they had to take images again. When he saw the hemorrhoids had grown back, he was dumbfounded. How was it possible for them to regrow overnight?
It should have been impossible.
He immediately thought of what had happened at the Chen Clan. At that time, when Chen Han had asked the ancestors to punish him, he had mocked it, and then this had happened.
Could it be…
A chill ran down his spine.
The doctor was startled by his reaction and called for the director, while comforting him. “Mr. Chen, please don’t worry, our director said there is a way to treat this. He will be here soon.”
In pain, Chen Yong could only nod. “Please ask your director to hurry. I am going to die from the pain.”
At last the director arrived. As soon as he saw Chen Yong, he did not even look at the images the hospital handed to him. Smiling, he said, “Mr. Chen, your hemorrhoids grew back overnight after surgery, and your toothache can’t be cured; when one is pulled another starts to hurt, right?”
Chen Yong immediately nodded. “Yes, director, please, save me quickly.”
Instead of answering, the director asked, “Mr. Chen, when your symptoms broke out, you had been to the Chen Clan, right?”
Chen Yong nodded subconsciously. “Director, how did you know?”
The director kept smiling and asked, “And you provoked or offended the Chen Clan while you were there, right?”
“Huh?” Chen Yong froze, cold sweat breaking out. “Director… do you know something?”
The director shook his head. “Mr. Chen, you are not the first case like this in our hospital. There are some things you may find unbelievable, or think cannot exist, but there are things even I, as a doctor, believe. You should believe them too. Only the one who tied the knot can untie it.”
With that, the director said no more and signaled to the doctor. “Prescribe more medicine for this gentleman.”
This was his way of enlightening him. Since the patient had money, helping the department performance a bit was no problem.
The doctor immediately understood and nodded.
Chen Yong also understood the implication. This was really related to the Chen Clan ancestors.
The Chen Clan truly had such mysterious power. Then the things said online were likely true.
No wonder even a tycoon like Liu Ye would work for the Chen Clan.
Thinking of this, his head buzzed. What a stupid thing he had done.
“Hurry, take me back to the Chen Clan.” Chen Yong did not dare delay and immediately told his driver and secretary to help him up.
The Chen Clan Genealogy registration was still ongoing today. He had to go back and get registered.
Since the Chen Clan had such power, if he could get hold of it…
The secretary and driver obeyed and helped him into the car, then headed straight for the Chen Clan.
This time, when he came out from the Chen Clan Parking Lot, he again saw that man called Wu Yan telling tourists how to enter the Chen Clan Dreamscape. “I told you I was not lying, right? By now I have taken so many people into the Chen Clan Dreamscape. Many have entered the Light Gate, drunk the tea drunk by the NPC old daoist priest, and seen that Doubao AI generated mark.”
“Don’t believe what those people online say. They deny it only because they never had the chance. Many have not even been to the Chen Clan…”
Hearing this again, Chen Yong’s mindset was completely different. Did the Chen Clan really have this Dreamscape?
If they had such a place, how could the Chen Clan members not know how to develop it?
How could they let an outsider show off here?
The more he thought about it, the more it hurt his heart.
If he were the Chen Family Head, he would absolutely make good use of these miracles and lead the Chen Clan to soar.
What a waste.
But he also understood that Chen Han was now the patriarch, and he himself had been punished by the ancestors. This would not do. He had to first get into the genealogy, be forgiven, and get rid of his symptoms.
Also, on the way back he had watched some videos. He knew that the key figure now was that Old Daoist Priest Chen, the ancestor over 200 years old.
All of this likely originated from that person. Otherwise, why had the Chen Clan never had such power before?
Maybe, as some netizens said, Old Daoist Priest Chen had been in seclusion and only came out recently.
So as long as he could meet that elder, gain his appreciation, tell him his ideas for developing the Chen Clan, and denounce how the current Chen Clan was wasting its potential, replacing Chen Han would not be impossible.
Thinking of this, he knew what to do: endure humiliation first, get into the genealogy, bow his head to Chen Han.
Thirty years east of the river, thirty years west of the river. Nothing was decided yet.
Supported by his secretary and driver, Chen Yong once again arrived at the Ancestral Hall of the Heavenly Lord of Demon Subjugation. His miserable appearance immediately drew the attention of the Chen Clan members.
Naturally, Chen Han, Chen Lin, Aunt-Grandmother, and the two Great Uncles all saw this and frowned.
Chen Yong immediately looked toward Chen Han and the others. “Patriarch, Uncle Chen Lin, I know I was arrogant. I know I was wrong. The ancestors have punished me now. I hope you can forgive me. I came specially today to enter the clan genealogy.”
Chen Han could only say this man either had a very thick skin or had some scheme.
Keeping someone like this in the family would only cause trouble.
So he said bluntly, “Chen Yong, right? Good that you are here. After deliberation between me as patriarch and the family elders, we have already decided to expel you from the Chen Clan. From now on, you are no longer one of us.”
This made the clan members understand: this was the one who had been expelled.
Chen Yong’s face changed. “This is unfair. I am of the Chen Clan. My family house is still in the Chen Clan.”
Chen Han snorted. “This is exactly what I wanted to tell you. The Chen Clan will buy back your house. Of course, you can refuse, but as long as you are considered a member of the Chen Clan, the ancestors have the right to punish you.”
“Think it over carefully. For now, please do not let an outsider disturb our clan genealogy ceremony.”
With that, he glanced at Uncle Dagou.
Uncle Dagou understood, picked Chen Yong up, and threw him out again.
“Ouch!” Chen Yong’s hemorrhoids were obviously pulled, and he cried out in pain, shouting furiously, “Chen Han, you people are unjust. Aren’t you afraid the ancestor will be displeased when he finds out?”
Uncle Dagou looked down on him. That ancestor did not even handle mundane affairs, and this guy thought he was important. With so many in the Chen Clan not qualified to meet him, this one had never even seen him.
Hearing this, Chen Han sneered even more. The Old Ancestor was right here.
As the doors closed again, Chen Yong felt like a clown.
He wanted to wait outside, but the pain in his teeth and hemorrhoids was unbearable. He had no choice but to have them take him back to the hospital.
But even in the hospital, the doctors were helpless.
The director came again and reminded him, “Mr. Chen, we ordinary people sometimes need to know our limits and not butt heads with those who wield special powers. We will only suffer.”
“Previously, there were also family members of county leaders who offended the Chen Clan in a fit of anger. And in the end? They could not endure it, went to apologize, and got better right away.”
The director left, leaving Chen Yong’s head buzzing.
Especially that line about ordinary people not butting heads with those who wield special powers, or they would only suffer.
He seemed to understand.
That tycoon Liu Ye likely shared this mentality. Ordinary people wanting to cling to such a powerful thigh.
This made him even more regretful. He even blamed his grandfather and father. If they had not moved to that state, if they had come back a few times each year, maybe they too could have gained such power.
He believed this. After all, compared to developing the family, they were more capable and richer, better positioned.
If the ancestor over 200 years old had awakened while they were around, maybe…
Or perhaps the ancestor had assessed them and seen that Chen Han’s family, who developed tourism and led the clan to prosperity, deserved favor.
Thinking of this made him feel stifled.
He felt like one of those villains in novels, TV dramas, or movies who clearly had better ability, strength, and intelligence than the protagonist, but because they missed timing, opportunities, and fate, they could only watch as the trash protagonist surpassed them.
It was infuriating.
Now not only did Chen Han want to expel him from the clan, he even wanted to buy back his family home, cutting off his chance. This showed he was afraid of and wary of Chen Yong’s ability.
The more Chen Yong thought about it, the more plausible it seemed. But the tooth and hemorrhoid pain forced him to face another fact: this was beyond what a person could endure.
By the next day, he was about to collapse and could no longer bear it. So he could only agree to Chen Han’s terms first, to get rid of his condition.
After that, he would go undercover. There would always be a chance to meet the ancestor. Once they met, that would be his chance to turn the tables.
Obviously, he did not realize how wildly imaginative this idea was. He thought he was enduring humiliation just to one day strike back hard.
Chen Han did not know what Chen Yong was thinking. Even if he did, he would have wanted to take the form of the old daoist priest just to meet him.
After preparing the medicinal cuisine for stewing at Uncle’s Kitchen, he received a game prompt:
【Congratulations. Level 1 family cave dwelling construction completed. Spirit vein modification completed. Spiritual energy +1 attribute activated!】
【Congratulations. Level 1 family cave dwelling construction completed. You have obtained one cave dwelling entrance modification sign. You can use it to modify an entrance to the family cave dwelling so qualified clan members can enter.】
Chen Han checked the game warehouse and saw a sign with special patterns carved on both sides.
【Cave dwelling entrance modification sign: this is a special modification sign, integrated with two sides. One side can be used inside the family grotto-heaven, and the other outside the family cave dwelling. When both sides are modified, clan members with entry qualifications can travel through this entrance.】
Chen Han roughly understood.
But wasn’t the family grotto-heaven right there on the rock cliff? Even without this modified entrance, he could go directly, right?
Thinking this, he left the Chen Clan and headed for the back mountain.
On the way, he checked the panel in his mind and found that information about a blessed land had been added.
Family grotto-heaven: level 1
Special attribute: spiritual energy +1
Level 1 grotto-heaven facilities: enter the grotto-heaven to view gifted facilities
Entry qualification: can grant authorization to clan members via special record book （patriarch not restricted）
Upgrade requirement: level 2 Family Cave Dwelling Construction Scroll （chance to drop from destroying other factions’ cave dwellings）.
The description was simple. To continue upgrading, he needed a level 2 Family Cave Dwelling Construction Scroll.
But this likely could not happen, since there were no other factions’ cave dwellings in reality.
Soon, Chen Han avoided the tourists and again reached the rock cliff and cave, only to be dumbfounded.
Because the rock cliff and cave were empty. Nothing there.
Where was the supposedly upgraded family grotto-heaven?
Was this a joke?
As he was thinking this, the surroundings suddenly changed. With a twist, everything before his eyes transformed.
It was no longer an empty stone platform and cave. The stone platform became flat and neat, with a lush tree standing there, flowers blooming all around, and a stone table in the middle…
Most importantly, the scenery in the distance, the mountain forest, had changed as well, now verdant with misty spiritual vapor coiling, even golden clouds filling the sky, forming layers of colorful clouds over the forests, spectacular to behold.
Inside the cave, there were all kinds of floral arrangements and glowing lights, incredibly fantastic.
This all looked exactly like how a family grotto-heaven should look.
Now he understood. The family grotto-heaven could not be seen in reality. It was likely an independent space, so the outer stone platform and cave remained as they were.
Of course, if that were all, it would just look like a grotto-heaven. But then he turned his head and saw a pond.
The pond looked familiar. Wasn’t it the cement-and-brick water reservoir from his courtyard?
So this was the missing part the game system mentioned, directly collecting data.
It had copied from his courtyard.
The ground around the reservoir looked like his courtyard’s ground.
Turning again, he was even more stunned.
There was a gas stove there, and a pressure cooker.
Didn’t that look exactly like Uncle’s Kitchen?
Spirit Fire Stove? Spirit Pressure Cooker?
Even the surroundings were like Uncle’s Kitchen.
So they copied that too?
What really left him speechless was that on another side he saw a furnace made from bricks and cement.
This was the artifact refining furnace?
The surrounding was like the open space in front of the artifact refining furnace. He had previously piled the Feng Shui stones sent from Wudang there; now the game system had copied all those Feng Shui stones.
Blatantly copying previous work, huh?
This was a bit too perfunctory.
He walked straight to the artifact refining furnace, touched it, and chose to use it. Its information popped up immediately.
When he saw the information, an expression of surprise appeared on his face. “Damn, not bad!”
The game system might plagiarize, but it still had some decency.
