Chapter 207: with translation of chapter title

Lin Yifan had long guessed that Su Xiao xi hid many little thoughts.

Otherwise, an underage survivor who couldn't even open a treasure chest couldn't have survived to now.

So, for this small issue of hers, he couldn't be bothered to argue, and simply waved his hand and said:

"Alright, it's nothing big. Since I promised your brother I'd protect you, as long as you don't betray me or cross my bottom line, everything else is fine."

"Brother Yifan, thank you!"

Su Xiao xi then calmed her emotions, hesitated a moment, and couldn't help but ask doubtfully:

"Right, Brother Yifan, you said the one who came to my shelter and attacked me—who exactly was he?"

"He looked pretty strange—long ears, wings on his back! He resembled the elves on TV; if he weren't a bit ugly, I'd really think he was an elf."

"It must be the elf race." Upon hearing that description, Lin Yifan could confirm that Su Xiao xi had encountered the elf race.

After all, he had met them before, and those who had utterly destroyed his impression of beautiful elves left a deep mark.

"So this world really does have other races." Su Xiao xi sighed, "Looking at it this way, there truly is a possibility of becoming a god in this world."

"Every race has a god; at least the races that have survived to now once gave birth to a god." Lin Yifan laid out his understanding of gods in full, then pondered and said:

"We humans shouldn't be the first batch to arrive in this world, so there should already have been a god among humans."

"However, although we're all humans, you're young but you know human nature can't be gambled on, so we who come from Earth Star, if we want to thrive well in this world, still need to produce our own god."

"But saying this now is premature—we haven't even left the Initial Domain yet! Wanting to give birth to a god, we don't know if it'll be the Year of the Monkey and Month of the Horse."

Su Xiao xi also nodded, gave a wry smile, and said:

"Indeed I was impatient, but I believe that if a god appears among us humans, Brother Yifan will definitely be one of them."

"Alright, stop talking nonsense." Lin Yifan waved his hand and directly opened the purple treasure chest.

【Congratulations on obtaining 【Intermediate Attribute Fruit】×3】

【Congratulations on obtaining 【Random Spirit Crystal】×6】

【Congratulations on obtaining 【Attachment Shelter】×1 (Note: Attachment Shelter can only be inhabited by servants who have signed a master-servant contract; it can merge with the original shelter and enjoy the original shelter's level.)】

【Congratulations on obtaining 【Intermediate Instance Teleportation Talisman】×1】

【Congratulations on obtaining 【Intermediate Instance Teammate Summoning Order】×1】

【Congratulations on triggering 【Lucky Double】, all above rewards doubled!】

Lin Yifan raised his eyebrows, looking at the items in the chest, feeling neither surprised nor delighted.

As a purple treasure chest, getting these items is actually quite normal.

Their value isn't high or low; it's entirely within reason.

But that 【Attachment Shelter】 is a pleasant surprise—he had been worrying how to place Su Xiao xi.

Although his shelter isn't lacking spare rooms, Lin Yifan is actually quite a lone wolf and still prefers his own space.

He had originally considered sending Su Xiao xi to Ruan Qingtan's place, but now with this 【Attachment Shelter】 it's also convenient.

Especially after triggering 【Lucky Double】, the 【Attachment Shelter】's level rose from three to four, matching Lin Yifan's shelter.

Although it's just an ordinary level‑4 shelter, at this point it's already far ahead.

Lin Yifan tossed the activation token for the 【Attachment Shelter】 into Su Xiao xi's hand: "Take it! When you return to my shelter, activate this token, and you'll have a shelter of your own beside mine."

"It can actually work like that!" Su Xiao xi widened her eyes, then suddenly laughed:

"This world is pretty interesting—it knows what we need and gives it to us right away."

"If we didn't know, we'd be just ordinary survivors, struggling to stay alive; I almost thought we might be the protagonists of this survival game."

"That could be." Lin Yifan raised his eyebrows, not yet looking at the red moon hanging in the sky, and said meaningfully:

"We've run into the red moon this early—maybe we really are the protagonists!"

For some reason, Lin Yifan always feels he's now caught between the red moon and the Survival Realm, becoming a target both sides want to win over.

At the same time, he's also an object of cooperative exploitation!

Regarding that, Lin Yifan has no psychological resistance; having grown up parentless, scraping by alone, he knows best what "survival of the fittest" means.

If a person has no utilitarian value at all, then living is meaningless.

The fact that he can now become a contested object between the wills of the red moon and the Survival Realm shows it has utilitarian value!

If he can make good use of this, he might actually find a shortcut to becoming stronger.

Upon hearing Lin Yifan's words, Su Xiao xi indeed looked at him doubtfully.

But Lin Yifan had no desire to answer; instead he reached out and picked up the 【Intermediate Instance Teleportation Talisman】—this wasn't his first time obtaining an instance teleportation talisman. 【Mithril Cast Iron Pot】

He even still has two 【Primary Instance Teleportation Talismans】 in hand, and the last time he cleared an instance it indeed brought him great benefit.

He had originally planned to, after finishing current affairs, pull Ruan Qingtan and Hong Shaoqiang along for another instance run.

Moreover, this time he could also bring Su Xiao xi; although she's underage, her talent is extraordinary, perhaps allowing her to dig out more rewards in the instance.

As for the rest, Lin Yifan merely glanced at them and tossed the 【Random Spirit Crystals】 into his personal space.

His current stock of 【Random Spirit Crystals】 is nearly depleted; today, to let Mao Mao recover stamina against the 【Maggot Human Bone】, he used up more than half of other attribute crystals and even consumed one 【Fire Spirit Essence】.

These 12 【Random Spirit Crystals】 will just about replenish his supply; if luck improves a bit, his crocodile breastplate could be crafted.

As for those six 【Intermediate Attribute Fruits】, Lin Yifan also put them into his personal space.

Lin Yifan had previously experienced the side effects of a large increase in attribute points.

As for these 12 【Intermediate Attribute Fruits】, each can increase at least 2 attribute points; if absorbed well, the points could increase even more.
