"What is this?"
Luo En felt as if a strange filter had covered his right eye, and the scenery seen by his two eyes was completely different, making him feel a strange sense of dizziness.
When he looked at the desktop, a passage of text suddenly appeared in his mind.
Material: Pine
Value: Extremely Low
Year: 15 Years
Beyonder Ability: None
"This is a Treasure Appraisal Monocle!"
"The most useful cheat in novels!" Luo En's eyes widened, and he instantly sobered up.
It wasn't a method of appraisal that was too mystical and not intuitive, like divination.
This was a genuine appraisal.
Treasure appraisal, stone gambling, picking up overlooked items…
A series of words flooded Luo En's mind. He seemed to have already seen his bright future.
"No, I can't get excited. I'm a cool Transmigrator."
Although he said that, the smile on his lips wouldn't go away.
There was nothing he could do. Ever since he transmigrated, one unlucky thing after another had happened. It was rare to encounter such a good thing, so it was already good that he didn't jump up and down.
"Am I hitting rock bottom and bouncing back?"
"By the way, can I wear it on my left eye?" Luo En took the monocle off his right eye and placed it over his left eye.
"Eh? It won't stay on." The monocle automatically fell off as soon as it got close to his left eye. If Luo En hadn't been quick-eyed and quick-handed, it would have fallen directly to the ground.
"Does it only work when worn on the right eye?"
Appraisal, would it be useful for that wooden box… Suppressing his excitement, Luo En remembered the wooden box that had conjured a note out of thin air.
Let's try it.
Material: Unknown
Value: Extremely High
Year: Unknown
Beyonder Ability: Provides the user with the steps to solve a given question.
Usage Limit: Twice a day
Note: This item will only tell you the method and steps to solve a problem, but it will not directly tell you the answer, and the steps are incomplete, only providing one step at a time."
"It really is a Beyonder item, and it's so powerful!"
What shocked him even more was the appraisal ability of the monocle.
It even had notes. This appraisal ability is truly extraordinary… Luo En sighed, feeling the information before his eyes.
"But the year and material are both unknown, which is still a bit concerning!"
"From this perspective, the appraisal ability of this monocle is not that omnipotent." Gradually calming down from his excitement, Luo En began to consider some more realistic questions.
"Also, what is the basis for this monocle's judgment of value?" These two questions surfaced in his mind.
By the way, if both this box and the monocle are Beyonder items, then what about that playing card… Luo En remembered the 3 of Diamonds that was wedged in the crack of the stone Door.
Bed
Material: Spruce
Year: 15 Years

Suitcase
Material…
…
"It seems that as long as spiritual energy is injected, it will automatically appraise everything in sight." Luo En took off the monocle and rubbed his slightly sore eyes.
Then he pulled out the 3 of Diamonds playing card from the satchel he had been carrying during the day.
"Appraise." Luo En put the monocle back on and injected spiritual energy.
Unknown Playing Card 3 of Diamonds
Material: Unknown
Year: Unknown
Beyonder Ability: Unknown
All unknown!
He was startled by this result. Even the wooden box that had been layered and packed earlier wasn't like this.
"But, no matter how I look at it, this is just an ordinary playing card!"
Luo En carefully picked up the playing card and examined it closely under the faint light of the gas lamp.
But just by looking at its appearance, he couldn't tell anything special about this playing card. At most, it looked a bit ancient and exquisite.
"Could it be that the power of this card is sealed?" Luo En had a guess.
"This card was in that crypt, it shouldn't be a coincidence, and that crypt was full of traces of Transmigrators."
"Perhaps, contrary to what I initially thought, this card might itself be something belonging to a Transmigrator."
"But why was it wedged in the door crack?"
"It couldn't be just a piece of paper stuck in the door, a trick to know if someone had been there if it fell out, could it?"
"How is that possible, who would be so bored…"
Wait! If it was a Transmigrator, maybe they really would… A cold sweat ran down Luo En's forehead.
"If that wasn't an unguarded treasure, but merely a storage room."
"Then wouldn't I be a thief!"
"If that Transmigrator found something missing and came after me…"
Luo En forcibly interrupted his fantasy and re-evaluated the current situation.
"That crypt has at least a few hundred years of history. Even if it really belonged to a Transmigrator, they're probably long gone by now!"
Although he said that, he then thought that the lifespan of high-Sequence Beyonders seemed to be extremely long. If that Transmigrator was a high-Sequence Beyonder, then…
Thinking about how to appeal to the other party with a sense of camaraderie, Luo En thought of something else that concerned him even more.
"The state of that crypt clearly indicates it has been abandoned for a long time."
"If the Transmigrator isn't dead, then the most likely explanation is that he's not in this world anymore. Perhaps, he has already gone home."
This idea was the best-case scenario for now. He wouldn't have to worry about retaliation from the senior Transmigrator, and he also had hope of returning home.
"The Famicom was born in the 1990s. Even if that Transmigrator transmigrated from the era when the Famicom just emerged, it would be at most 30 years from 2021, before I transmigrated."
"But that crypt has at least several hundred years of history." Luo En rested his hand on his chin and continued to ponder.
"This means that the time axis for Transmigrators is not fixed. If you include Emperor Rosell, this conclusion should be correct."
"The flow of time in this world is at least dozens of times different from my original world."
"So if I spend decades finding a way back, only a year or two might have passed in my original world at most."
"A year or two, there shouldn't be too many regrets, right?" Thinking of his parents and the elders at home, Luo En felt a little melancholic.
He got up and paced back and forth in the room. Although he hadn't been transmigrated for long, a strong sense of homesickness had already engulfed his mind and body.
"Forget it, why think so much? Sleep!"
Luo En was already exhausted from a day of labor, plus the significant spiritual energy consumed to test the effect of the monocle.
It was just that the matter of the Transmigrator had temporarily suppressed his fatigue. Now that he relaxed, sleepiness directly overwhelmed him.
Before long, even breathing sounds came from the bed.
…
The next day, Luo En still decided to perform a divination, and only after confirming that this playing card would not pose any danger did he gradually feel at ease.
However, there was still one thing that bothered him: the physical reaction he had when he encountered that strange policeman that day.
Especially, he felt as if something within his body was just a step away from undergoing a change.
"What exactly was that feeling?" Luo En was a bit annoyed. He certainly didn't want his body to have problems.
Thinking of this, Luo En took out the wooden box. He named it the mystical item box.
The inspiration came from a prop in an animated film he watched as a child.
The box's characteristic of providing solutions to problems also coincidentally suited the name.
"How do I resolve the abnormal condition of my body?" Luo En asked a question.
Before long, a note appeared out of thin air:
"Divination for others using your unique method
