"It can be put back into that diamond treasure chest!"
Ling Xi chimed in, "Actually, the greatest value of golden and diamond treasure chests, besides the rare resources inside, lies in their enormous space!"
"Silver treasure chests are alright; their internal space isn't usually very large, so bracelets made from spatial rift fragments can accommodate them."
"But for golden treasure chests and those of higher tiers, they basically cannot be put into bracelets made from spatial rift fragments, because the required capacity is too immense..."
"For example, that diamond treasure chest just now, if you wanted to put it into a spatial fragment bracelet, your bracelet would need to be able to hold a battleship over two hundred meters long, forty meters wide, and more than twenty meters high!"
As she spoke, Ling Xi tapped her foot on the battleship beneath them.
"Is that so~"
Ye Feng jumped off the battleship, ran to the ground not far away, picked up the diamond treasure chest, opened it, and after some manipulation, stored the battleship inside.
"The operation is the same as with the silver treasure chest!~"
After verifying this, Ye Feng was quite pleased.
Although he had taken out all the resources from the silver treasure chests he had encountered before and put them into his spatial warehouse, he had also practiced putting items back.
Immediately, Ye Feng walked towards the pile of resources where the golden treasure chest had been.
"By the way, Ye Feng, there's one thing to be aware of!"
As they walked alongside Ye Feng, Ling Xi spoke up, "Golden and diamond treasure chests emit strong arcane energy fluctuations. Coupled with the fact that they generally cannot be placed into spatial fragment bracelets, they easily attract energy-devouring monsters or other explorers who are obsessed with arcane energy..."
"This is why the appearance of diamond and golden treasure chests so often leads to bloody battles!"
"Especially diamond treasure chests, they are particularly prone to attracting powerful arcane cultivators, as their perception of arcane energy far surpasses that of ordinary people!"
Ling Xi spoke rapidly to Ye Feng.
"It's a hot potato!"
Ye Feng glanced at the diamond treasure chest on the ground, then turned towards the golden treasure chest and skillfully opened it.
The golden treasure chest contained a large pile of armaments: RPGs, flamethrowers, howitzers, mortars, various submachine guns, ammo crates, night vision goggles... and many, many more compressed rations, canned meats...
"Ding~"
"Detected host's first time opening a diamond treasure chest, received additional reward: 50,000 usable points~"
"Ding~"
"Detected host's first time opening a golden treasure chest, received additional reward: 10,000 usable points~"
As Ye Feng was inventorying the supplies, the system's mechanical voice suddenly sounded.
"What the heck! This is great!"
Upon hearing this news, Ye Feng was overjoyed.
This was because he had been worrying that despite having several thousand spatial rift fragments, he didn't have enough usable points...
After all, expanding the spatial warehouse required not only spatial rift fragments but also usable points!
Based on his previous experience, the system usually rewarded him with survival coins the first time he opened a treasure chest of a certain tier.
But survival coins were not something he lacked at the moment...
"Xiao Xiao, Ye Feng... he?"
Ling Xi looked at Xiao Xiao with a puzzled gaze, as she noticed Ye Feng inexplicably staring blankly and chuckling to himself...
"Let's have lunch first!~"
Before Xiao Xiao could answer, Ye Feng's voice rang out, as he realized he was hungry.
...
After a sumptuous lunch,
"Ling Xi, where are Leng Yue and Qiao Ying?"
"Where did they go? It's past mealtime, why aren't they back yet!"
Ye Feng looked at Ling Xi somewhat perplexed. She was currently under the shade of a tree, leisurely drinking iced cola with Xiao Xiao.
"They went to look for the Stone of Hope... but it's highly likely they'll come back empty-handed..."
Ling Xi pointed in the direction of the core area of Brad Base and replied.
"Oh, I see~"
Ye Feng turned to Bao Yu Ting, "Bao Da Ting, what are your plans next?"
"This..."
Bao Yu Ting was slightly taken aback. "Mr. Ye... I actually want to follow you, but my strength... I'll probably just be a burden... I plan to leave here and go out to gain some experience..."
"Although... although it's quite slim... I hope that when I see Mr. Ye again in the future, I can... can be of help to Mr. Ye!"
By the end, Bao Yu Ting's tone was exceptionally firm.
"Uh... alright..."
Looking at Bao Yu Ting, a middle-aged man who was looking serious and even blushing, Ye Feng was momentarily speechless.
"Then... then here, take this..."
A flash of light appeared in Ye Feng's hand, and a small refrigerator materialized. It was the desperate potion he had obtained from the City of Despair.
He had had this desperate potion for a long time but had never taken it.
Although he had deduced from a pile of information that the desperate potion needed to be taken as a complete course of treatment to truly exert its effect, with the growth of his strength and his peculiar cultivation methods, this item had lost much of its significance...
"This is called the desperate potion... according to my research..."
"This entire refrigerator full of desperate potions, based on my inference, should be exactly a complete course..."
Under Bao Yu Ting's confused gaze, Ye Feng quickly explained about the desperate potion.
"This..."
Bao Yu Ting swallowed, his face filled with astonishment. "A... a complete series of desperate potions... for... for me?"
"Mhm!"
Ye Feng nodded.
"No... no, I can't!"
After a moment of stunned silence, Bao Yu Ting hastily waved his hands. "Mr. Ye, you... you saved me... I... I don't know how to repay you..."
"This... this desperate potion is too precious... I... I can't accept it!"
Bao Yu Ting took a deep breath, calmed his emotions, and spoke again: "I've mingled with countless adventurers over the years, and I've learned some secrets!"
"This... the giant power obtained from this desperate potion is the power of Ymir, the ancient giant from legend!"
"The reason the desperate potion is unstable, and after taking it, although one gains immense power, they are prone to losing their sanity, becoming a foolish giant, or even exploding and dying, is precisely because they haven't taken the complete series of desperate potions..."
"Only by taking the complete series of desperate potions can one obtain true giant power!"
"It is said that some early large-scale human survivor bases had these, but with the Great Upheaval and various disasters... most of them were lost, or only had partial amounts..."
"Even among the seven major forces, it's rarely heard of having a complete series of desperate potions!"
Bao Yu Ting explained rapidly to Ye Feng.
"Ancient giant Ymir? What's that?"
Ye Feng looked at Bao Yu Ting with surprise.
"Legend has it that he was the guardian of the Lamp of Creation..."
Ling Xi chimed in.
