Roaming the universe, all thanks to your many dark skills!

Soon Rosen discovered that the level of delivery was much more difficult to level up than the general skills.

On the one hand, the cooldown period of the skill is relatively long, and you need to wait at least 60 seconds after each release before you can use it again. This situation has never been encountered in his previous dark skills.

On the other hand, the feeling of being cast is really uncomfortable.

It feels like being suddenly dropped from a height of ten thousand meters without even a parachute, and you are unlucky enough to fall into a tornado, being blown upside down and left and right.

Before you get used to the extremely strong feeling of dizziness and nausea, a strong force suddenly pulls you straight and puts you where you want to go.

So when you stand at the target point, your head feels dizzy, your legs feel weak, and even your soul seems to be left far behind and has no time to possess the body.

In this state, let alone engaging in a battle right away, it would be a blessing not to be discovered by the enemy and shot to death on the spot.

To solve this problem, the only solution Rosen could think of was to practice even more frantically.

As long as you don’t die from training, you should train to the point of death. Once you reach the limit of pain, it will no longer be painful.

Then Rosen gritted his teeth and began to use the delivery at a frequency of fifty or sixty times per hour.

It is no exaggeration to say that apart from taking a few steps at home, he basically alternates between teleportation and delivery at other times.

There are only two results from crazy struggles: either things get worse or they get better.

And Rosen made the right bet this time.

"Delivery, LV2, you can be delivered to any coordinate point within 1000 meters of you at any time. If there are obstacles near the delivery location, the landing point will be fine-tuned to ensure your safety."

In addition to doubling the delivery distance, more importantly, the skill cooldown time is reduced by 10 seconds.

With hope, Rosen has the motivation to continue his madness.

During this period, he was also brushing up on his proficiency in other skills.

Anyway, on Mars, he basically doesn't have to worry about being seen, so he can do whatever he wants.

However, it is not easy to upgrade the proficiency of most skills that have reached level 3 simply by releasing them repeatedly.

However, some skills that he had hardly used since he acquired them could greatly increase his proficiency.

For example, Ghost Valley Mysticism LV2, Shield War Specialization LV2, Earthwork LV1, Mind Hammer LV2, Lightning Ball LV1, Poison Gun LV2, Domination of Stone Demon LV1, Shadow Cloak LV1, Fireball LV2, Flame Enhancement LV1, Charged Bullet LV2, Lightning LV1, Telekinesis LV1, Hypoxic Breathing LV1, Lightning Nova LV1, etc.

Except for the lightning ball and poison gun that also require the use of javelins, the shield warrior specialization requires a shield, and earthwork operations cannot be separated from a shovel and a pickaxe, most of the other skills are simple and easy, and there is basically no problem except for wasting some mana.

But it was Guiguzi's secret technique that made Rosen very worried.

Because he really doubted whether this mysterious technique, which was developed based on the mountains, rivers, terrain, yin and yang and feng shui on Earth, could be used on Mars, where the environment is completely different?

He soon discovered that he had greatly underestimated the wisdom of his predecessors and underestimated the power of the system.

It turns out that Guiguzi's secret technique is not only usable on Mars, but is also quite useful.

For example, in order to improve his proficiency in earthwork, he had to dig holes and trenches everywhere like a human groundhog.

When you don't use the Guigu Secret Technique, what you encounter when you shovel depends entirely on your luck. However, if you use the Guigu Secret Technique to take a look around in advance, you can naturally avoid the underground rock veins, which definitely saves you a lot of worry and effort.

The only thing that made Rosen feel a little regretful was that no one had ever lived on Mars, so there could be no graves. Otherwise, he would really like to find a Martian's grave for fun.

Time passed quietly and unconsciously.

Solar Day 54.

When Rosen upgraded all his skills to level 3, Mark, whom he hadn't seen since the last ignition, came to him again.

Although he had a scruffy beard, he was very excited and said excitedly, "Rosen, guess what I found today?"

Rosen certainly knew what he had seen, but he did not say it directly.

Otherwise, he was afraid that if he didn’t let Mark tell him about this happy event himself, he would go crazy.

So Rosen cooperated and said, "What? I can't guess."

"It's potato sprouts." Mark smiled with joy, his face almost comparable to when his wife gave birth to a child.

He said: "You know, I made history. From today on, the history of planting on Mars will open a new chapter. The first potato was planted by me, Mark Watney."

"Yes, it's you." Rosen nodded and echoed.

Although he had not known Mark for a long time, Rosen had traveled through time so much that he had some understanding of the noisy nature of Americans.

So even though Mark looked smug, as if the world had changed dramatically because of his potatoes, he didn't say anything else.

After all, for someone who spent a lot of time and almost lost his life just to grow potatoes, this small achievement is indeed worth showing off.

And there is no need to say anything about him, the great Martian farm pioneer, vegetable and fruit grower, creator of dozens of achievements - Rosen.

As a human being, you have to be low-key. Being too ostentatious can easily cause trouble.

"Mark, my friend, in order to celebrate the successful phase of your potato planting plan, I decided to treat you to lunch today."

Rosen thought for a moment and said, "The staple food is rice, and the side dishes are beef stew with potatoes, spicy and sour potato shreds, and tomato and egg soup. How about that?"

"Of course, thank you for your generosity." Mark nodded with a smile, then asked in confusion: "Why so many potatoes?"

"Let you adapt to the wonderful life of eating potatoes every day in advance." Rosen said with a smile.

The smile on Mark's face froze.

on the earth.

cemetery.

"God blessed America by allowing Mark to be part of our space program. While we mourn his loss, all of us at NASA will persevere and do our utmost to fulfill our responsibilities to carry on Mark's legacy and ensure that his sacrifice was not in vain."

It was still NASA Administrator Teddy Sanders who gave the speech. His expression was heavy and his tone was sad, as if he was really sad about Mark's death.

As soon as he returned to NASA, someone came to see him.

“I thought your speech was really good.”

Vincent Capel, NASA's Mars mission commander, walked into Ted's room and said, "I need your approval to call up the satellite."

"Don't even think about it." Ted refused without hesitation.

"We were funded for five Ares missions, and I think I can get the council to approve a sixth." Vincent said, "Listen, Ares was withdrawn after only 5 solar days, and there are still half of the mission's supplies there.

I can sell it for a fraction of the price of a normal quest. I just want to know how much of our fortune is left?"
