Chapter 10: Material Boxes That Can Open Up Fierce Beasts

Seeing that their eldest brother was already dead, the two brothers who had been lying on the ground pretending to wail immediately stood up.

The older brother cupped his hands and said, "Many thanks to you two for letting us escape the sea of misery. I am Luo Jincheng, I have no online name, and my talent is Divination. This is my younger brother, his name is Luo Jinrui, his online name is 'Brother's Driver', and his talent is Light Shield."

Zhao Yuxin: "My name is Zhao Yuxin, you should also know me as Yangguang Xujie, and my talent is Bat Wing Ear. That man who doesn't like to talk is my teammate, his name is Zhu Zhiquan, he has no online name, and his talent is Boiling Blood."

Luo Jincheng: "Since we all know each other now, how about we add each other as private contacts?"

Zhao Yuxin: "Sure, Ajiu, come over here quickly and stop finishing him off for now."

Upon hearing this, Zhu Zhiquan stopped his finishing move, walked to Zhao Yuxin's side, and added their private contacts. Luo Jincheng smiled and said, "If there is anything you need us for in the future, just give the word. If there is nothing else, we will be leaving first."

"Wait a moment." Zhao Yuxin suddenly called out to stop them, "We cleaned up your eldest brother for you two, shouldn't you give us something?"

Luo Jincheng and Luo Jinrui were stunned for a moment, and Luo Jinrui cursed, "Hey! This is robbery!"

"Robbery?" Zhao Yuxin chuckled, "Not at all. You used us to get your boss killed and want to leave without giving us anything? You're dreaming!"

"You..." Luo Jincheng stopped Luo Jinrui from continuing to bicker with Zhao Yuxin, and he squeezed out a smile, "Miss Zhao is right, it was our lack of consideration.

It's just that we don't have anything too precious on us. How about this, you go to our tricycle and pick out a few things."

Before long, Luo Jincheng and Luo Jinrui pedaled away on their tricycle, looking miserable.

Zhao Yuxin was very satisfied looking at the extra supplies on her tricycle. Zhu Zhiquan walked up to Zhao Yuxin holding a blueprint, and Zhao Yuxin asked curiously, "Where did you get this?"

Zhu Zhiquan explained: "This blueprint dropped after I killed the eldest brother of those two brothers, Luo Jinrui. According to the system's explanation, when a player kills another player, there is a chance for the victim's blueprints to drop, and one must also kill the player on the same vehicle."

Zhao Yuxin: "Then if that player is killed, and their teammate is killed by someone else, how is that calculated?"

Zhu Zhiquan shook his head, "I'm not sure either, the system didn't mention this rule."

Zhao Yuxin scratched her head, "Forget it, let's not worry about that, let's see what this blueprint is." As she spoke, she took the blueprint and learned it immediately.

Zhu Zhiquan saw in the crafting interface that there was a piece of armor identical to the one worn by Luo Jinrui and their boss.

Name: Fish Scale Armor

Quality: White

Introduction: A piece of armor commonly used by ancient soldiers, which can prevent you from being harmed by swords and blades.

Materials: 15 units of metal, 5 ropes or Animal Tendons, 1 piece of animal hide.

"Good stuff! Now we have another product to list." Zhao Yuxin also saw the Fish Scale Armor in the crafting interface, and her eyes turned into the shape of money.

Zhu Zhiquan didn't care, put on the Fish Scale Armor stripped from the corpse, and went off to hunt with his Dagger Spear in hand.

"Hey! Move these corpses a bit further away!"

Near noon, Zhu Zhiquan dumped his catch into the vehicle. Zhao Yuxin, who was on the side, looked at the latest catch and said, "Why is there so little?"

Zhu Zhiquan explained: "Because these animals have already become alert, and look at the lakeside."

Zhao Yuxin looked toward the lake and could clearly see that the lake's surface area had shrunk significantly, "So that's it. The lake's area has shrunk, so there aren't many animals left to attract. Ajiu, how about we leave after we finish eating?"

………………

In the afternoon, Zhao Yuxin was responsible for pedaling the tricycle, while Zhu Zhiquan looked at the information on the World Channel from inside the carriage. At this time, the number in the upper left corner showed 1543/3000, and players on the World Channel were either cursing or hawking goods.

Suddenly, a message sent by a player with the online name Youxi Daomeidan caught everyone's attention, "Everyone, be careful, you might open up a beast when opening a box, you must..." Before he could finish his sentence, the message he sent disappeared.

This made everyone alert. It just so happened that there was a gray Material Box ahead. Zhao Yuxin intended to go open it alone, but Zhu Zhiquan immediately stopped her and told her about the message on the World Channel.

Gulp~

Zhao Yuxin swallowed a mouthful of saliva, "Then what should we do? Ajiu, I'm a little scared~"

Zhu Zhiquan: "Can your Bat Wing Ear detect what's inside the Material Box?"

"I'll try." Zhao Yuxin shouted, and the sound waves were absorbed upon contacting the Material Box, "It doesn't work. Without an echo, I can't know what's inside."

Zhu Zhiquan: "How about this, you and I put on the Fish Scale Armor, you go to the back of the Material Box, and I'll be in front of the Material Box."

Zhao Yuxin gave a hum of agreement. After the two put on the Fish Scale Armor, they stood on either side of the Material Box. As the Material Box was opened, a fierce tiger emerged from inside.

"Aowoo~"

As soon as the tiger came out, it pounced on Zhu Zhiquan, knocking him to the ground. Fortunately, Zhu Zhiquan used his Dagger Spear to hold back its sharp teeth, preventing the tiger from biting down.

Zhao Yuxin seized the opportunity and stabbed the tiger's butt with her Dagger Spear, then pulled back to a distance. The tiger turned its head in pain, and Zhu Zhiquan seized the opportunity to fiercely gouge its eyes.

After the tiger's eyes were injured, it retreated repeatedly, and this time Zhao Yuxin thrust her Dagger Spear into the tiger's butt.

"Aowoo~"

Puchi~

After the tiger's butt was stabbed again, Zhu Zhiquan took advantage of the tiger's lack of reaction and stabbed its neck with his spear. As Zhu Zhiquan and Zhao Yuxin pulled their Dagger Spears out simultaneously, the tiger's body began to sway.

The two of them stabbed their Dagger Spears into the tiger's body once more, and this time the tiger collapsed with a crash.

"Yay! We killed a tiger! Ajiu, look, we killed a tiger!" Zhao Yuxin excitedly threw herself onto Zhu Zhiquan.

Zhu Zhiquan patted her on the back, "Alright, can you let go of me first?"

Zhao Yuxin let go of Zhu Zhiquan in some embarrassment, and Zhu Zhiquan picked up the Skinning Knife to butcher the tiger. He obtained one tiger hide and three catties of tiger meat.

After packing up their things, the two set off again. Zhu Zhiquan thought for a moment, gave himself the online name Taiquan Xiaozhu, and then crafted a large batch of Dagger Spears to list on the Trading Channel at a low price, receiving many positive reviews.

Before long, they encountered another Material Box. The two surrounded the box according to their previous positions, and Zhu Zhiquan opened the Material Box, only to have a chicken emerge from inside.

Seeing that it was a chicken, Zhao Yuxin tossed aside her Dagger Spear and grabbed the chicken.

Zhao Yuxin grabbed the chicken wings and asked: "Ajiu, what should we do with this chicken?"

Zhu Zhiquan took a piece of cloth from the tricycle and handed it to her. Zhao Yuxin took the cloth, tied up the chicken's legs, threw it onto the tricycle, and they continued on their way.

By evening, Zhu Zhiquan and the others had opened a total of eight Material Boxes, four of which had contained beasts. Zhao Yuxin complained: "This damn system, the probability of these beasts is just too high! How many people died today?"

Zhu Zhiquan opened the panel and looked at the remaining number of people, "There are 1220 left. It seems that quite a few people died because they opened up beasts from the Material Boxes."
