"Who the f * ck is messing with me?"
Xu Liao did not know what was going on.
He thought to himself in bewilderment, "There is actually a treasure chest in this deserted Mirage! Could it be that it was originally a virtual game? Could it be that the monsters I killed dropped some items? I killed quite a few monsters outside, but why didn't any of them drop any treasures? The three monsters I killed just now also didn't give me any experience? … This place is so deserted. Could it be that it was closed due to poor management? "
Xu Liao's imagination ran wild. If it wasn't for the fact that the monsters he came into contact with were well-versed in all kinds of black technology, he would not have such a whimsical thought. Although he could not imagine how to design this deserted Mirage into a game, he could not hold back his curiosity and walked towards the first treasure chest.
According to his gaming experience, a treasure chest meant that there were treasures, but it also meant that there might be battles ahead.
In just ten minutes, Xu Liao found the first treasure chest. What surprised him was that it was really a grey bronze chest. It was half a person's height and looked very simple. It was also emitting a faint light, as if it was afraid that others would not see it.
Xu Liao's spirit was lifted. He moved closer. Before he reached out, the treasure chest automatically opened. He was excited and moved slightly, and saw that there were seven or eight items in the treasure chest.
There was a black and red tight-fitting combat suit, a piece of high-tech crystal, a camouflage backpack, two bags of biscuits in metal packaging, a bottle of strange-looking mineral water, and a small pile of triangular white coins.
Xu Liao thought to himself, "This is becoming more and more like a game!"
He first picked up the camouflage backpack. He did not know what material this camouflage backpack was made of, but it was very light in his hand. It was much lighter than the school bag he was used to.
When he reached out to grab the piece of crystal, his eyes suddenly emitted a strong light …
"Found the sealed combat beast. Can it be unsealed?"
Xu Liao hesitated for a moment before realizing that the voice did not come from the Seven-Star Green Jade Mantis Demon, but from the crystal in his hand. He was so surprised that his eyeballs almost popped out of their sockets. However, this also convinced him that his guess was correct. This abandoned Virtual World was originally designed to be a simulated playground. For some reason, it was abandoned, but there were still countless traces of gamification left behind.
Xu Liao had no need for a new combat beast, but he couldn't suppress his curiosity. He shouted in a low voice, "Unseal!" The crystal in his hand shattered, and a snow-white rabbit with red eyes leapt out.
Xu Liao opened his palm, and the little rabbit jumped into his palm. Immediately, a spirit wave connected to it.
"Battle Beast, Totem Rabbit. Comes with the skill 'Verdure Glider', which can increase the host's speed by 30%!"
"Tsk!"
Xu Liao was immediately disappointed. Compared to the Jade Seven-Sided Mantis Demon, the practicality of this totem rabbit was greatly reduced. It could only increase a person's speed by 30%, and it didn't have any combat skills. For him, it really couldn't even be considered a chicken rib.
Xu Liao sealed the Totem Rabbit into a crystal and threw it into the backpack. Then, he put the tight-fitting combat suit, two packets of biscuits in a metal box, and the bottle of mineral water with a very strange shape into the backpack.
When he finally grabbed the pile of triangular white coins, he grabbed nothing. The demon record gold card that he had long forgotten sent a prompt: "Someone transferred you 100 Shi Coins. Do you accept it?"
"100 Shi Coins? What is this? "
He did not know what material the demon record gold card was made of. Last time, when he used his Demonic Qi to transform, it was actually not assimilated by the Star Swallowing Art.
Xu Liao asked casually and didn't expect to get an answer. The Demon Registry Gold Card lit up and displayed a line of words. Then, it explained in a melodious tone, "Shibi is the currency used by the Thousand Demons Guild. The official exchange rate for RMB is one Shibi to one hundred RMB. However, very few people are willing to exchange Shibi for RMB. This is because most of the goods in the Thousand Demons Guild don't accept RMB as payment. The price of a Shibi in the black market is usually between one hundred and fifty to one hundred and eighty …"
Xu Liao was once again shocked by the level of technology of the demons. He could not help but mutter to himself: "This introduction is really detailed!"
He now knew what Shi Coins were. Of course, he was even more sure that all the strange things in this abandoned Virtual World were related to the Thousand Demons Guild. Many unimaginable things could be explained now.
Although ten thousand yuan was not a lot, as a junior high school student, all the red envelopes and pocket money he had added up would only be a few hundred yuan a year. To him, 100 Shi Coins was already a 'huge sum'. Moreover, the black market price of 100 Shi Coins was far higher than the official exchange rate.
He did not stay at the treasure chest for too long. With some excitement and curiosity, he ran to the second treasure chest. The second treasure chest was in a dilapidated house. It was exactly the same as the first treasure chest. It was also a huge chest made of bronze. Xu Liao did not even need to lift a finger before it automatically opened.
The items in this treasure chest were much lesser than the first treasure chest. There were only three items: a small pile of triangular coins and two sheathed short swords.
Xu Liao grabbed the air, and the demon record gold card sent out a notification: "Someone has transferred you 100 Shi Coins. Do you accept?"
He chose to accept. The demon record gold card showed that he had received a transfer again.
Another sum of money entered his account. Although Xu Liao was slightly excited, he did not pay much attention to it. He picked up the two short swords and casually pulled out one of them.
This short sword was 70 centimeters long and two fingers wide. It had a simple design, and it was hard to tell how old it was. It was unknown what material the sword was made of, but it was completely transparent. When he held it in front of him, he could vaguely see water vapor rising from the blade. It was quite strange. The blade was extremely sharp, and when he held it in his hand, it felt cold. It was light as if it was nothing.
Xu Liao obtained the camouflage backpack from the first treasure chest. Coincidentally, there were two slots on the backpack. With a sudden inspiration, he inserted the two short swords into the backpack. It was a perfect fit, and it even gave off a feeling that the backpack and the two short swords were a set.
After obtaining the two weapons, Xu Liao was quite happy. He even forgot that this abandoned Mirage was full of danger. He repeatedly pulled out the two short swords and inserted them back into the backpack, playing with them happily.
Xu Liao was at the age where he liked to play with swords and spears. These two short swords were also incomparably exquisite. Of course, he liked them very much. He simply could not bear to part with them.
After obtaining two treasure chests, Xu Liao became a bit more courageous. Although this dilapidated village was still gloomy, he no longer felt the pressure he had at the beginning.
The third treasure chest was slightly further away. It was located at the very center of the village.
