Chapter 413: 413: Dark Gold Treasure Chest
These mutant demons had actually dropped quite a few Doomsday Coins, which surprised everyone. When picking up Doomsday Coins, they would automatically be divided into five portions, distributed among everyone. After a complete round of gathering, each person ended up with over a thousand Doomsday Coins.
“Does anyone want this Level 15 green gear?” Wang Qi showcased the attributes of a piece of green equipment.
Seeing that nobody responded, Wang Qi kept the equipment with the intention to sell it later;
Now, should the team loot gear that someone could use, it would be purchased at an internal price. If not, Wang Qi would sell it and then the money would be split among everyone;
‘Tve obtained a yellow key here…” Tang Rong suddenly held up a key radiating yellow light and announced loudly.
“I have one as well, but it’s blue.” Zhou Qing also held up a key radiating blue light and said;
Within a short period of time, Song Jian had also found a key giving off a green glow beneath the corpse of a mutant demon. He held it up to show everyone; “Three keys, do you think these could be the keys to the vault door?” Wang Qi asked in excitement.
The four of them had come here before, but they were pushed back by the monsters. They couldn’t even get close to the vault door, let alone find any information about these keys;
However, inside this underground vault, the only use for keys was likely to open the vault’s main door.
“Do we need three keys?” Ma Yu asked, furrowing his brows.
“Perhaps it’s not enough. Judging by what we see, we will need to kill all the monsters we encounter; they might drop keys.” Wang Qi shook his head.
“Let’s continue.” Song Jian advanced forward;
After walking another thirty or forty meters forward, Song Jian suddenly stopped in his tracks. The others behind him also adopted vigilant expressions.
As Wang Qi was about to speak, Song Jian pointed to a corner ahead and asked, “What is that?”
Using the light from the orbs above their heads, they realized they were walking within a metal corridor, with the walls on both sides, the ground beneath their feet and the ceiling above their heads, all being made of metal.
In the lower-left corner of the metal corridor in front of them, a chest twinkling with dark gold light rested quietly there.
“This is… a treasure chest from the game!” Ma Yu couldn’t help but exclaim excitedly;
“Hey, this game really has treasure chests. This is the first time I’ve ever encountered it. Interesting.” Tang Rong also showed an excited expression, even rushing forward to continuously touch the surface of the dark gold treasure chest.
“This is a Dark Gold Treasure Chest, does it mean that a Dark Gold Quality piece of equipment can be obtained from it?” Zhou Qing asked in a low voice.
“Probably. That’s usually how games are designed. In some games, Dark Gold treasure Chests can even yield epic-tiered equipment.” Ma Yu chuckled. He held the chest with both hands, appearing as if he were about to open it;
“Damn it, this chest is locked!” Ma Yu’s expression changed as he exclaimed in surprise.
“Locked? Are you kidding me!” Tang Rong was also startled, hurriedly stretching his hand to press on the chest. His face showed an expression of despair: “It really is locked.”
“Oh well. So near yet so far. That’s what you get for showing off!” Wang Qi said snidely, looking at the chest with a hint of disappointment in his eyes.
lang Rong, aren’t you a rogue? How come you don’t know how to pick locks!” Zhou Qing complained.
“Aren’t you a priest? Have you learned the Resurrection Skill?” Tang Rong glared at Zhou Qing and retorted irritably.
Zhou Qing:”…”
“Leave it to me.” Song Jian stepped forward. Pulling out a key shimmering with a silver glow from his bag, he inserted it into the keyhole of the chest;
The moment the key touched the chest, it began to melt slowly like liquid metal and continually change its form.
When the key was fully inserted into the lock, Song Jian twisted lightly, and with a “click”, the chest was opened, revealing a dazzling golden light from the gap.
“A golden… golden quality item…” Ma Yu’s eyes widened in envy.
As the golden light disappeared, Song Jian reached into the chest and found that there were very few items inside;
There were only two items in the chest, a golden quality breastplate, “Demon Armor”, and an alchemy prescription.
“Demon Armor, plate armor, chest, golden quality, equipment level 20, equipment requirements: Strength 20, Agility 15; equipment effects: Strength +8, Agility +7, Constitution +5, Defense +60, Resistance +4.0, Vitality Points + 5OO, Special effect: Demon Strength (passive), each instance of damage received increases overall defense by 5%, can stack up to 5 times, lasts 15 seconds;”
Looking at this equipment, Ma Yu’s eyes bulged;
“If I wear this armor, I could withstand even a Level 20 elite BOSS without problems!” Ma Yu thought loudly to himself;
Even though shields take up a the most prominent role in the defense gear of a warrior, followed by weapons, the price of armor still remained high. The main reason was that the defense added by the armor was the highest among all types of gear;
This Level 20 golden quality armor perfectly exemplified this. It boasted high attribute bonuses, high defense and resistance, but most importantly, it added 500 vitality points. The vitality points it added were even greater than some frail vocations’ total vitality points;
Even more crucially, its special effect increased overall defense by 25% after talcing five hits, this was almost equivalent to wearing another piece of defense gear. This point was especially significant for Ma Yu;
“The armor costs 100,000; are you interested?” Song Jian waved the armor in his hand at Ma Yu and smiled;
100,000, it was almost like Song Jian was giving the armor as half a gift and half a sale. He now considered Wang Qi, and the others as part of his team, so giving an internal price wasn’t a problem;
Remember, this wasn’t gear obtained by the five of them killing monsters; it was from the locked chest Song Jian had opened. Even if he didn’t share a single piece of equipment, the others wouldn’t have any objections;
Hearing Song Jian’s words, a joyful expression appeared on Ma Yu’s face as he nodded repeatedly, “Buy, buy, buy…”
Song Jian smiled faintly then tossed the armor to Ma Yu.
Ma Yu caressed the golden quality armor as if he were stroking his lover’s cheek;
“This is a Level 20 piece of equipment…” Tang Rong said enviously from the side, as no one from their group had ever gotten a piece of golden quality gear. This was the first piece for Ma Yu;
“Level up, level up. Starting from today, I will grind and level up non-stop, no sleep!” Ma Yu roared loudly;
“By the way, do you have 100,000 Doomsday Coins?” Wang Qi suddenly asked;
Ma Yu’s movement suddenly came to a halt, and his face froze. At that moment, he only just realized that he might not even be able to produce the 100,000 Doomsday Coins.
