Chapter 414: Chapter 414: The Insurance Vault
For ordinary players, daily supplies and equipment repairs cost a large amount of Doomsday Coins, and monsters that directly drop Doomsday Coins are scarce. Almost every player is in a state of spending more than they can afford;
Although the situation eases as the level increases, in the case of a level 15 player like Ma Yu, having a few thousand Doomsday Coins in their pockets is considered amazing.
“Bro, can you guys lend me some coins? 1 promise to pay back…” Ma Yu looked gloomy and spoke to Wang Qi and the others;
Wang Qi and the others couldn’t help but laugh out loud at Ma Yu’s almost tearful appearance, as they loved to see him boast like this;
“Alright, we’ve already listed several pieces of equipment in the auction house since we followed Brother Song, so I estimate each of us will get at least 30,000 Doomsday Coins. We can help you out then…” Wang Qi looked at the others around him and saw them nod slightly. He laughed heartily and spoke to Ma
Yu;
“Thanks, brothers!” Ma Yu gratefully said, then turned to Song Jian and said,
“Thank you, Brother Song!”
Song Jian just smiled without saying anything;
Such a level 20 golden equipment wouldn’t sell for much in the auction house, mainly because the players’ levels are not high and there are few who have reached level 20, meaning there won’t be a bidding war;
But if Song Jian shouted on the radio or directly sold it at the Starfire Store in the City of Hymns, it would definitely sell for a sky-high price, starting at least at 300,000 Doomsday Coins. As for the final transaction price, Song Jian couldn’t predict it;
“I’ll take this recipe.” Song Jian waved the Alchemy and Pharmacology recipe in his hand and smiled at the crowd;
“Of course, of course.” The others said hurriedly;
Seeing the recipe in his hand, Song Jian couldn’t help but smile on his face;
“Alchemy and Pharmacology Recipe: Advanced Recovery Elixir. Effect: Use to comprehend the production of Advanced Recovery Elixir; Usage requirements: Alchemy and Pharmacology Level 5;”
“Advanced Recovery Elixir: Consumable, usage effect: Instantly restores 800 Vitality Points to the user; Each use must have an interval of no less than 10 seconds;”
“Finally obtained the method to make healing potions.” Song Jian yelled in his heart;
It’s really upsetting for Song Jian to have learned Alchemy but still not be able to make recovery potions. Although he didn’t say it out loud, it was like a thorn in his heart.
Ordinary effect potions are not very valuable. Having them in battle is good, but not having them doesn’t affect much. However, healing potions can save lives, and their role in the game is particularly significant;
But now, the system store only sells low-level healing potions, which instantly recover 100 Vitality Points when used, with a 15-second interval;
For players just entering the game, recovering too Vitality Points at once is enough. But for Song Jian, who already has over 1,700 points of Vitality, recovering 100 Vitality Points is just a drop in the bucket;
After looking at the materials needed to make the Advanced Recovery Elixir, there were only some second-tier and third-tier herbs, and none of them were particularly valuable. Song Jian could even plant them directly on his territory; Now Song Jian has two production recipes that can be used to upgrade his Alchemy and Pharmacology level;
“After getting back, I can upgrade Alchemy and Pharmacology again,” Song
Jian secretly thought;
After a brief rest, Song Jian and the others continued forward. In just over half an hour, they encountered two more groups of mutant demons. After killing them, Wang Qi and the others leveled up to 16;
As expected, they also dropped two more keys, one gold and one black. Now,
Song Jian and his team had collected five different colored keys;
With these two groups of monsters, Song Jian was now only a few combat experience points away from leveling up again. A few more groups of monsters and he could level up;
Soon, the five of them arrived in front of the underground vault door. It was a large hall of over a hundred square meters, with the vault door occupying an entire wall on the opposite side.
“I heard that vault doors are several meters thick, made of the hardest alloys, and can’t even be blown up with explosives…” Ma Yu looked up at the metal wall in front of them and couldn’t help but exclaim;
“With such tight security, there must be a lot of gold in there, haha, we’re rich, we’re rich!” Tang Rong’s eyes almost turned into gold coins, showing a greedy expression;
“What if it’s just hiding a warehouse full of banknotes?” Zhou Qing couldn t stand Tang Rong’s greedy appearance and couldn’t help but splash cold water on the situation;
“Impossible, this is the Central Bank of the whole city, not a branch. How could it not store some gold? There might even be other treasures!” Tang Rong shook his head and said, “Let’s open it quickly, lest there be more complications.”
“How do we open this? With Brother Song’s Master Key or our five keys?” Wang Qi hesitated, holding out the five keys and asking;
The attribute descriptions of these five keys were very vague. They only mentioned that they could open the doors to mysterious places, but did not explicitly say that they could open the vault doors.
“Isn’t there a keyhole here? Let me go check it out first!” Song Jian walked up, inserted the Master Key, and gently twisted it;
Click click click-
There was a sound of gears turning inside the vault door, and a small wheel next to it began to rotate automatically;
After half a rotation, it would pause for a while, and there would be a click sound inside the door. Then it would reverse for a few more turns, stopping at a certain number, as if an invisible giant hand was pulling it,
It took a full five minutes before the sound of the gears meshing inside the door finally stopped;
With a “click,” the vault door that was nearly half a wall in size finally opened, springing outward by three fingers long;
“It’s open!” Wang Qi and the others shouted in surprise, and everyone stepped forward, grabbing the handle of the vault door and pulling it outward with all their might;
When the vault door was opened, a colorful light burst out from the vault, and the dazzling light made everyone close their eyes involuntarily.
After a while, everyone looked into the vault, and Tang Rong exclaimed in disappointment, “How could this be!”
Wang Qi and the others rushed into the vault, looking around, only to be disappointed to find that there was nothing valuable in the entire vault. There wasn’t even a single banknote, let alone gold. It was completely empty, like a looted warehouse;
“The stuff in here must have been looted a long time ago, right?” Wang Qi said in disappointment;
“It seems that way…” Zhou Qing also nodded in frustration;
“What is this thing under our feet, and why is it still emitting light?” Ma Yu couldn’t help but ask, pointing to a huge pattern under their feet that was glowing with colorful light;
Song Jian looked down and saw a huge Pentagram Array Diagram engraved on the ground, with five colors of divine light blooming from it, illuminating the entire vault brightly;
“Is this… a Magic Array?” Song Jian frowned and observed it carefully;
