Harvest From a Golden Treasure Box

Rustle…

A gale continuously blew over the island.

And in the jungle, the big trees rustled.

The rest of the mutated crocodiles were out of their wits when they saw Ye Bei devour the mutated crocodile king. They were creeping along the ground, shaking with fear, devoid of the courage to even escape.

The 40-meter-long mutated reticulated python king had surrendered.

Hence, the murderous atmosphere that had descended over the area quickly disappeared.

The mutated beasts outside this region finally started to move. Intuition told them that the great battle was now over and that there was a lot of delicious food waiting for them up ahead.

Roar roar roar!

Swoosh swoosh!

They talked excitedly as they decisively stepped into the forbidden region.

On Ye Bei’s side…

Seeing that the reticulated python king had surrendered to Ye Bei, the eight Blood Pythons—Spring, Flower, Autumn, Moon, Pursuing, Joy, Making, and Merry—felt like they were dreaming.

It turned out that the mutated python king, who they’d thought was invincible, was actually weak.

Most importantly… in such a short period of time, their own king had evolved to 30 meters in length and was now unfathomably strong.

“Spring, Flower, Autumn, Moon, Pursuing, Joy, Making, Merry… there are some crocodiles and pythons over here. Go and eat them! And… mutated reticulated python king, you and your three mutated reticulated pythons that are still alive may also go forth and feast on them!” Ye Bei said while he communicated with the system about the treasure chests.

When the eight Blood Pythons heard Ye Bei’s orders, their eyes flashed… Without delay, they maniacally dashed toward the swamp. There was still a bit of food left behind by Ye Bei, and the eight Blood Pythons were well aware that as long as they devoured the food, they would quickly become stronger.

As for the mutated reticulated python king and the three mutated reticulated pythons that were still alive, faced with Ye Bei’s imposing demeanor, they weren’t bold enough to oppose him.

And without delay, they also went to devour the food!

“Host, you now own fifteen Bronze Treasure Chests and ten Silver Treasure Chests! Five Bronze Treasure Chests equal one Silver Treasure Chest, and five Silver Treasure Chests equal one Golden Treasure Chest, and so on… Are you sure you want to open all of the treasure chests instead of upgrading them?” the system swiftly replied.

Huh?

Ye Bei was slightly taken aback when he heard the system say this.

Then, his forked tongue stuck out, and he became even more excited.

In the very beginning, even a Bronze Treasure Chest could give him a powerful item like the Venomous Cobra Fangs… With a little thought, one could imagine how alluring the rewards in the Golden Treasure Chest would be.

It was just that…

It was Five Bronze Treasure Chests to one Silver Treasure Chest.

And Five Silver Treasure Chests to only one Golden Treasure Chest…

This made Ye Bei feel kind of depressed.

“Uhm, system, can’t you make it a bit cheaper? Like two Silver Treasure Chests for one Golden Treasure Chest or something?” Ye Bei asked sincerely.

The system’s rejection was immediate. “No!”

However, right after the system rejected his request, it said, “The rewards in a Golden Treasure Chest are definitely worth the price! For example, you can acquire immortality… directly become a true dragon, obtain a body that will never wear out, or make it so that any damage you sustain won’t kill you!! Aside from all that, there are also a lot of incredible abilities you could acquire, such as the ability to breathe fire or breathe underwater, or even create electricity. I can assure you that the rewards inside a Golden Treasure Chest are absolutely worth the price!” Its voice dripped with seduction.

What the freak?!!

This was friggin marketing in its naked form!

After Ye Bei heard what rewards the Golden Treasure Chest could hold, he couldn’t make up his mind for a while!

Immortality?

A body that never wore out?

Becoming a true dragon… without having to evolve into a Titan Python first?

Could the rewards really be that powerful?

Ye Bei’s voice quivered when he asked, “Then, what kind of items would there be inside a Diamond Treasure Chest, or say a Platinum Treasure Chest?”

The treasures inside were probably absolutely unbelievable…

But the system’s reply doused Ye Bei’s excitement like a splash of cold water. “You currently don’t have the right permissions to ask that!”

“Fine! Then convert all fifteen Bronze Treasure Chests into Silver Treasure Chests! As for the ten Silver Treasure Chests, convert them into two Golden Treasure Chests,” Ye Bei said decisively, admittedly tempted by the system’s list of possible rewards.

He would then have three Silver Treasure Chests and two Golden Treasure Chests… He’d probably be able to rule over the entire Research Island as long as he opened them!

The system was swift to upgrade the treasure chests when it heard Ye Bei’s reply. “Very well, Host!”

In the blink of an eye, the treasure chests were upgraded, and five treasure chests appeared before Ye Bei’s eyes.

The three silver treasure chests radiated a silvery-white light and looked strange and mysterious.

As for the two golden treasure chests… they radiated a dazzling, elegant gold light as if they contained endless amounts of treasures!

Only Ye Bei himself was able to see all of this.

To the eight Blood Pythons and the mutated Reticulated Pythons, Ye Bei was merely hunkered down on the ground and resting. They didn’t see him move at all.

Ye Bei stuck his forked tongue out of his mouth as he said excitedly, “What incredible efficiency! Then… let’s have a Golden Treasure Chest opened up right away!”

“Yes, Host!”

As soon as the system said this, one of the Golden Treasure Chests slowly started to open. The golden light was extremely dazzling, causing Ye Bei’s already wide eyes to grow even wider. He wanted to get a clear look at what kind of good items were inside the first treasure chest that he’d opened.

Hmm?

He focused his eyes and stared solemnly at the item inside the Golden Treasure Chest.

A cloud of fiery-red light was jumping around inside it…

It seemed real yet illusory!

He couldn’t get a good look at what it was.

But Ye Bei clearly felt that there were endless amounts of energy contained inside that ball of light.

“System, what is this? Is it something that will allow me to breathe fire?” Ye Bei asked curiously.

If he could really breathe fire… that would be awesome.

His body was now 30 meters in length… If he could breathe fire, how massive would the flames be? Just the thought alone was enough to make anyone excited.

“It’s the Spirit Fire! After you devour it, it will merge with your body. If you wanted to, you could breathe out blazing flames at any time. And at the same time, the flames won’t affect your body!” the system explained.

Spirit Fire? What was that? He’d never heard of it before.

However, its effects were kinda dope.

It would allow him to breathe fire.

In the days to follow… even if his body was shrouded in massive flames, his body would be perfectly fine!

That alone was something pretty amazing!

Thinking of this, Ye Bei was unsure… He directly opened his mouth, curled his scarlet forked tongue, and easily rolled the Spirit Fire into his mouth and swallowed it in one bite!

Hmm?

The moment Ye Bei swallowed it, his eyes immediately widened.

The pythons, who were all busy devouring food, simultaneously looked toward Ye Bei…

Because the changes Ye Bei underwent at that particular moment were truly shocking!!!
