Chapter 457: The astonishing resources of a Silver-level player: Empty-handed, completely empty-handed. |
Yu Yuan hid in the Shadow Dimension, following Xiao Xi as she walked through the airlock door.
But behind the alloy airlock door, there was actually another layer of protection.
Descending down the staircase, they arrived before a stone wall.
Although this wall appeared to be made entirely of stone, a metallic luster could be seen within the stones, as if it were alloy.
This time, however, Xiao Xi's method was quite simple.
She merely placed her palm against the wall and stirred up the energy throughout her body.
In the blink of an eye, a faint layer of red mist appeared on the surface of her body.
This was the characteristic sign of stirred Blood Energy.
And this stirred Blood Energy flowed along Xiao Xi's palm, being absorbed by the wall in front of her.
Then, the wall lit up with a faint glow, and a curtain of energy light slowly faded from the wall's surface.
The wall began to tremble slightly, then transformed into neat, uniform blocks that floated up and down irregularly.
As they floated, the wall began to recede to both sides, revealing a passage just wide enough for one person.
Yu Yuan followed Xiao Xi inside.
Just as he was feeling excited in his heart about how tightly defended this treasury must be, which surely meant it held abundant supplies,
Xiao Xi had already reached the end of the passage, revealing the true appearance of the treasure vault.
Yu Yuan had to admit, although he had previously tried to imagine the supplies within this treasure vault as plentiful as possible,
he had still underestimated Xiao Xi's accumulated resources.
This was a secret chamber roughly five hundred square meters in size.
The chamber was divided into several rooms. There were no conventional gold, silver, or jewels here; what it possessed were only crates upon crates of supplies.
Equipment, weapons, ores, medicinal herbs, biological materials, special items, and so on.
Clearly, Xiao Xi placed considerable importance on this treasure vault, as it was organized in perfect order.
Xiao Xi walked into the treasury, sweeping her gaze with satisfaction over her collection.
Finally, she arrived at the innermost room, where two display stands were placed.
On the display stands, over a dozen exquisite wooden boxes were already scattered about.
These were clearly her most precious treasures.
In the corner of the room, a pile of wooden boxes of varying sizes, colors, and materials was stacked.
These wooden boxes all shared one common characteristic.
That was exquisiteness and opulence.
Not to mention the gold, silver, and jewels inlaid on them, just the patterns painted on their surfaces made these boxes immensely valuable.
Xiao Xi first muttered some incantations, then a strange light appeared and dissipated.
Only then did she approach the wooden boxes, picking and choosing. Clearly, what happened just now was some kind of alarm trap.
Finally, she selected a dark red wooden box inlaid with gold thread and blue-yellow gemstones.
Xiao Xi carefully placed that scroll and the stone inside it.
After hesitating for a few seconds, she placed the wooden box on the right side of a wooden stand, forming a symmetrical pair with a wooden box on the left side.
Then, she revealed a satisfied smile.
"Feather Dragon, I will definitely catch you!"
A low murmur sounded in the room.
She then reactivated the alarm trap, turned, left the room, and walked toward the exit of the secret chamber.
But just as Xiao Xi was about to leave the chamber, a silvery-white card appeared behind her and dissipated in the air, the entrance to the Shadow Dimension disappearing once again.
This process took less than a second.
However, the Human-Faced Spider that had been lying on Xiao Xi's shoulder, resting with its eyes closed, suddenly opened its eyes.
It turned its body to look behind itself.
The Human-Faced Spider's movement immediately caught Xiao Xi's attention.
"Baby, what's wrong!"
The Human-Faced Spider continued to inspect the situation inside the room. Only after two seconds did it turn its body back and close its eyes again.
Xiao Xi, however, narrowed the corners of her eyes and subtly scanned every corner of the secret chamber.
Finally, she even slightly opened her mouth.
Although no sound was emitted, her throat trembled faintly.
Clearly, she was releasing some kind of detection ability.
But unfortunately, the Shadow Dimension was simply not something Xiao Xi could detect.
Naturally, she gained no results.
After repeatedly checking the chamber to no avail,
she finally let out a long sigh and softly murmured to the Human-Faced Spider on her shoulder:
"Little one, don't get startled over nothing! Are you hungry? I just captured quite a few prey today, I'll give you an extra meal..."
The woman and the spider left the secret chamber, and the walls closed back together.
The chamber fell into silence once more, with only the glowing crystal stones embedded in the walls quietly emitting light.
Yu Yuan remained hidden in the Shadow Dimension, watching Xiao Xi leave.
On the Virtual Light Screen, however, several prompt messages had already appeared.
[Intelligence Card – Slander used successfully!]
[Slander target is – Moon Shadow's Breath Underground Castle. Slander keywords are: ambition, betrayal, Wolf Clan, Blood Duke, Overcome Higher-Ranked Opponents, emulate]
[Generating distorted facts related to the keywords, which have been integrated into the slander target's relationship network]
[Slander is continuously in effect...]
"It worked!"
These slander keywords were carefully selected and designed by Yu Yuan.
They weren't too abrupt, yet they were plausible.
"Now, we just wait for the slander to slowly ferment!"
After that, Yu Yuan began to wait. He wasn't in a hurry to leave the Shadow Dimension.
Only after more than an hour had passed
did Yu Yuan finally appear in this secret chamber.
Looking at the supplies in the chamber, Yu Yuan directly took out the locked door from the Rabbit Ring.
Leaning it against the wall, he used the [Escape Key] to open the Motel Main Guest Room.
A massive relocation operation began.
He didn't touch the room at the very back yet.
That place had an alarm trap, so naturally, he would deal with it last.
He started by moving the supplies that were the most abundant.
The items in this chamber were undoubtedly carefully selected treasures collected by Xiao Xi; every single item was a high-quality piece.
All 100 sets of Rare-tier Mechanical Armor were taken.
200 Rare-tier Assault Rifles, 76 Rare-tier Magnetic Rail Heavy Machine Guns, 12 Rare-tier Gauss Sniper Rifles...
Rare-tier Electromagnetic Pulse Grenades, Shockwave Grenades...
There were also many Lightning Launchers, Fireball Launchers, Healing Staves, Alchemy Furnaces, and other equipment full of fantastical elements...
The starting point was Rare-tier; Excellent-tier equipment wasn't even worthy of appearing here.
And these were just the appetizers.
3 sets of Epic-tier Mechanical Armor [Ruined City No. 7 Single-Person Kinetic Armor]
2 sets of Epic-tier ['Grim Reaper' Gatling Multi-barrel Machine Gun]
1 Epic-tier [Star Rail Pulse Sniper Rifle]
...
Yu Yuan was going crazy.
Blissfully crazy.
He could no longer spare the time to check the information of these items.
Leaving Zhi Zhi on guard, Yu Yuan at this moment was like a rat that had fallen into a granary, his eyes practically glowing green.
Only one thought remained in his mind, and that was to move...
Move everything. This place must be emptied out.
Leaving behind even a single bullet would be a sign of disrespect toward this secret chamber.
Yu Yuan began a full-scale sweep.
112 crates of Rare-tier Blood Brew, three crates of Epic-tier Blood Brew... taken.
1 crate of Rare-tier [Void Energy Ore]... taken.
Rare-tier Blueprints... taken.
Civilization Buildings... taken.
Those bulkier Rare-tier items that took up a lot of space were directly listed on the Taotao Hole at sky-high prices, used as a strategic transfer warehouse.
To be honest, it had been a long time since Yu Yuan had gone to such great lengths. The last time he made such a big effort was when he emptied Loris's supply room.
Emptying the treasure vault of a Silver-tier powerhouse player, such a once-in-a-millennium opportunity was too rare.
Not emptying it out would be a disservice to this opportunity.
Soon, all items in the secret chamber, except for the last room, were completely cleared out.
The Motel was also packed to the brim, and the Taotao Hole was completely full as well.
As Yu Yuan closed the door, the locked door was also put back into the Rabbit Ring by Yu Yuan.
Yu Yuan's gaze turned toward the final room in the secret chamber, filled with anticipation.
"It's time to harvest the most valuable fruits. I hope they won't disappoint me!"
Thinking this, he had already walked toward the room.
