MMB Chapter 445 Where did all this trash come from?
Chapter 445 Where did all this trash come from?
With a long "beep," the screen of the metal box lit up with a bright green light.
Chen You stared at the 100% progress bar, took a deep breath, and held his finger in mid-air, not letting it fall.
Hill leaned forward, beaming, "Boss, the exciting moment has arrived."
"Would you like me to play a special lottery draw background music for you? Just pay an extra 500 gold coins..."
"Get lost," Chen You uttered through gritted teeth.
He slapped the red button.
The metal box shook violently, spraying out a stream of cheap, multicolored confetti.
Accompanied by a piercing electronic synthesized sound, the box finally opened, revealing a parchment scroll radiating dazzling golden light.
Chen You frowned.
"That's it?" Chen You pointed to the somewhat worn-out parchment. "Fifty thousand gold coins, and you give me a piece of paper so rough it's not even good enough to wipe my butt?"
"Boss, take a look at the attributes first." Hill took a half step back, keeping a safe distance.
Chen You reached out and grabbed the parchment.
The moment he touched it, a row of golden system notification boxes popped up in front of him.
【Item Name: Super Experience Scroll (Consumable)】
[Quality: Myth]
[Effect: After use, the bound character will gain 1000% more experience points from killing monsters for the next 24 hours.]
[Restrictions: This item is non-tradeable, cannot be dropped, and its effects do not disappear upon death.]
[Note: Time is money, and money can buy ten times more time.]
Chen You's pupils suddenly contracted.
Ten times the experience? For 24 hours only?
He originally thought that this broken box would at most spit out tens of millions of experience points, or give him some kind of pill that could directly level him up.
Unexpectedly, Hill actually played a trump card this time.
More than 50,000 gold coins, plus the "cut" from 20 players, can be exchanged for a 10x experience buff.
While it's not as practical as the previous method of directly exchanging gold coins for experience, it's still worth the money.
"Boss, your luck really makes me... jealous."
Hill stared at the scroll, a hint of surprise flashing in her eyes. Clearly, she hadn't expected this broken machine to produce an item of this caliber.
Chen You grabbed the reel in his hand and quietly stuffed it into his backpack.
He turned his head and looked at the twenty players, including Bancheng Yansha, who were still standing there in a daze.
"Alright, that's all for you. You can go now." Chen You waved his hand.
Ban Cheng Yansha swallowed hard, then mustered his courage and asked, "Wandering God... what did you just draw? Was that golden light a divine artifact?"
"It's just a few double experience cards," Chen You lied without batting an eye. "This machine is a total rip-off; you guys should never play it again."
The players suddenly realized what was going on, and they all cast disdainful glances at Hill before walking out of the Supreme Tower arm in arm.
They were still discussing which tavern they should go to to spend the gold coin they had earned for free today.
Once only the two of them remained in the hall, Chen You's expression immediately changed.
"Hill, give me another VIP training room."
Hill resumed his professional smile: "As you wish."
Upon entering the training room, Chen You immediately used the Super Amazing Scroll and transformed into a ruthless monster-slaying machine.
Time passed by, second by second.
Three hours later.
Congratulations! You have reached level 47!
Eleven hours later.
Congratulations! You have reached level 48!
Twenty-three hours later.
Congratulations! You have reached level 49!
Twenty-four hours later, Chen You's clone left the training room.
Although he didn't manage to reach level 50 in one go, he was already very satisfied.
In a single day, he leaped three levels, and his main body also advanced to the mid-Foundation Establishment stage.
Level 50 is indeed a major hurdle, requiring more experience than the previous three levels combined.
Hill was standing behind the counter, holding a rag and carefully wiping it.
"Boss, you're out of seclusion?" Hill put down the rag and gave a standard smile. "Judging from your complexion, your cultivation has greatly improved."
"Stop trying to get on my good side." Chen You walked to the counter, tapped the table with his fingers, and said, "Give me that broken box again."
Hill did not immediately agree, but instead clasped her hands together in front of her and slightly suppressed her smile.
"Boss, as your most loyal private investment advisor, I must remind you of something."
Hill said seriously, "Among the laws of the Source Realm, there is a hidden rule called 'Conservation of Luck'."
"You drew a mythical-level super experience scroll last time, which has already exhausted a great deal of your luck."
Chen You raised an eyebrow: "What do you mean? Afraid I'll bankrupt you?"
"No, I'm afraid you'll smash up my shop," Hill said bluntly. "If I don't get anything good this time, you can't blame me, and you certainly can't ask for a refund."
"That's the rule for blind boxes."
Chen You scoffed.
"Stop talking nonsense, I'll accept whatever comes your way."
Chen You waved his hand dismissively, "But I don't want to do that stupid thing again, where twenty people lined up to press the button."
"You just want to make money, I'll give you money. Name your price, I'll buy out this entire progress bar."
Hill's face showed a slightly deliberate hint of embarrassment.
"Boss, some things cannot be replaced by money. The necessary procedures are a prerequisite for the treasure to be born."
Chen You did not respond.
Hilton paused, then laughed again.
"However, as our valued customer and a repeat customer, you deserve some preferential treatment!"
Hill pulled a gold card slot inlaid with rubies from under the counter.
"Special 'Exclusive No-Help Direct Access Version': No need to invite others, no need to wait, just pay 39999 gold coins to directly open a guaranteed 10-pull Supreme Blind Box."
Chen You stared at the glittering gold card slot, his lips twitching.
The price has dropped? I have a bad feeling about this!
"Ten consecutive pulls?"
"Yes, ten consecutive draws." Hill nodded. "Nine random quality items, plus one guaranteed legendary or higher rare item. Definitely great value for money."
Without further hesitation, Chen You took out 39999 gold coins from his backpack and slapped them on the counter.
"open."
Hill skillfully swiped the coins into the card slot.
The black metal box emitted a deep rumble, followed by a burst of dazzling seven-colored light on the screen.
There were no scraps of paper, no cheap electronic sounds, and no preamble.
"Bang!"
The box lid popped open.
Nine grayish-brown orbs of light flew out first and landed on the counter.
Chen You clicked on it casually.
Low-grade hemostatic herbs, broken iron swords, moldy dried rations... all sorts of gray junk, not even worth a single copper coin.
Chen You looked at Hill expressionlessly.
Hill remained unfazed: "This is all a setup, a prelude to the grand prize! Please see the last item."
Inside the iron box, a dazzling purple-gold light slowly rose.
Chen You held his breath and reached out to grab the ball of light.
As the light faded, a palm-sized, dark gold, and ancient-looking wooden fish lay quietly in his palm.
There was also a small hammer that was neither metal nor wood next to it.
Chen You was stunned.
He examined it twice, turning it over and over, and confirmed that it was indeed a wooden fish that a monk used to strike.
"Is this the guaranteed grand prize you were talking about?" Chen You asked through gritted teeth.
