Chapter 76: The Destroyer (Fourth Update)

After handling the matter of breaking through the 80-point attribute barrier, Su Xiao got up and walked toward the bathroom. After taking a refreshing cold shower, he walked out of the bathroom bare-chested.

Bubu Wang pushed open the door to the exclusive room, a paper bag in its mouth containing Su Xiao's breakfast.

Taking the breakfast, Su Xiao and Bubu Wang began to enjoy their meal. After eating, Bubu Wang sidled up to Su Xiao, its little eyes seeming to say, "Master, let me show you a treasure."

Su Xiao couldn't help but feel curious. Bubu Wang had been messing around in the Void Arena these past few days, and he had no idea what it had obtained.

Bubu Wang flipped its dog paw, and a shiny black coal lump appeared on its paw.

Su Xiao's mouth twitched. He thought to himself that this guy really went to sell coal, but upon closer inspection, he realized something was off. The coal in Bubu Wang's paw seemed a bit too smooth.

Su Xiao felt a bit puzzled. How had Bubu Wang brought this thing from the Void into Reincarnation Paradise? He had previously created many alchemical crows in the Void, and when he returned to Reincarnation Paradise, the system had prompted that only by paying a hefty fee could those alchemical crows be certified, because they were not obtained from the Demon Castle game.

The essence of the Reborn Dragon was different. It was obtained on the fifth floor of Demon Castle, a gain during the demon game, so no certification fee was required.

Could it be that what Bubu Wang obtained was also gained during the game?

Su Xiao picked up the "coal lump" from Bubu Wang's paw, and a prompt appeared. He stood frozen in place.

"Well done! How many more of these do you have?"

Su Xiao's eyes seemed to gleam. Bubu Wang wagged its tail, looking as if to say, "What kind of dog do you think I am? Of course, I got a lot."

[Pure Black Carbon Stone]
Quality: Dark Purple
Type: Rare Material
Effect: Can be added when enhancing equipment. Each piece increases success rate by 2%. A maximum of 10 pieces can be added per enhancement attempt. The item disappears after enhancement is complete.
Rating: 260
Introduction: A rare ore from the Void. Only the Bana Dwarf Clan knows how to mine it. The Bana Dwarf Clan only gifts this rare ore to close friends who mine together. Therefore, this ore is extremely rare in the Void.
...

Undoubtedly, when enhancing equipment, the value of this item is incalculable. Even if only one piece is added, it could play a crucial role.

Bubu Wang raised its dog head high. It had mined together with the Bana Dwarf Clan, and the clan had gifted this to it. As for how it negotiated with the Bana clan, Bubu Wang's 75 points in Charm Attribute were no joke.

Bubu Wang opened its small storage space and began to pour out [Pure Black Carbon Stones] with a clatter. Soon, a small pile formed, conservatively estimated at over 60 pieces.

Bubu Wang raised its dog head even higher. Pride, undoubtedly pride. Pride breaking through the sky, pride shooting out of the universe...

Ignoring the proud Bubu Wang for now, Su Xiao began to count the [Pure Black Carbon Stones] on the ground. There were 65 pieces in total. If sold in the trade market, they would fetch an astronomical price.

Of course, Su Xiao wouldn't sell these. Whether it was Dragon-Slaying Flash or the Demon Hunter Set, which could later be upgraded to a Gold Set, both needed enhancement. The more [Pure Black Carbon Stones], the better.

Carefully storing away the 65 [Pure Black Carbon Stones], Su Xiao hesitated for a moment before taking out an apple-sized metal box. The metal box was square, with a button on each of its six sides.

[Pandora's Box]
Quality: Gold
Type: Rare Item
Effect (One-time use item): Upon opening, can obtain White to Gold quality equipment, materials, recovery items, bloodlines, violent curses (debuffs), undead (debuffs), etc.

Rating: 360 points (Gold item rating is 310-400 points)
Introduction: The unknown represents opportunity, but also danger.
Price: 157,000 Paradise Coins
...

This was obtained by Su Xiao in the third game of Demon Castle. The way to open Pandora's Box was simple: press any button on the six sides of the box. As for what would come out, it depended on his luck.

Su Xiao was confident about opening this. He currently had 3 points in Luck Attribute, plus the temporary 4 points from the Lucky King state. The effect was predictable.

As soon as Su Xiao took out Pandora's Box, the proud Bubu Wang quickly ran to the side, squeezed into the wardrobe, and somehow pulled out a cross in its dog paw, trembling.

Regarding Su Xiao opening this kind of risky Gold Chest, Bubu Wang chose to flee first. Previous cases were still vivid in its memory, leaving it no choice but to run.

Su Xiao's hand holding Pandora's Box froze.

"You fool, let me show you what a Lucky King looks like."

Su Xiao pulled out a cigarette and lit it. A pale golden smoke curled from the corner of his mouth. The movement was smooth and fluid, with the Lucky King state activated.

He pressed a button on one side of Pandora's Box without hesitation. With a click, the box opened in his hand.

Boom!!

An explosion echoed through the exclusive room. Su Xiao was blasted to the side, the cigarette in his mouth blown away. Fortunately, Reincarnation Paradise was an absolute safe zone, otherwise, this explosion would have been enough to shatter his arm.

The explosion was judged as an external attack, so it didn't cause any damage to the exclusive room. Su Xiao was just a bit disheveled.

"..."

Su Xiao was quite frustrated. Was his 7 points in Luck Attribute just for show? It shouldn't be. This might have been an accident. Yes, that was it.

Su Xiao forcibly comforted himself. When he saw Bubu Wang trembling as it crawled out of the wardrobe, he was momentarily speechless.

[You have opened Pandora's Box.]
[You have obtained: The Destroyer (Gold)]
...

Receiving the prompt from Reincarnation Paradise, Su Xiao was stunned. Hadn't he just triggered a debuff effect?

He looked down at the ground. Pandora's Box had shattered, and a belt shimmering with golden light lay on the floor.

Seeing this, Su Xiao understood what had happened. The explosion just now was most likely Alice's "greeting," not a result of his bad luck.

He picked up the belt from the ground. Belt-type equipment was very rare. To date, Su Xiao had only obtained this one. He had never seen any in the trade market before, meaning the equipment slot for his waist had always been empty.

...

A smile appeared on Su Xiao's face. It turned out his luck wasn't bad. He equipped [The Destroyer], putting it on his waist. There was no special feeling, just that it fit well. This item was not for sale. Of course, if sold, it would fetch an astronomical price. Belt-type equipment was simply too rare. Even rarer than belts were lower-body gear, i.e., pants-type equipment.
