Chapter 1468: Chapter 90: Daily Squabbles

After leaving the Attribute Strengthening Hall, Su Xiao headed straight to a secluded street; he was going to find Reed to discuss the forging of a pendant.

Half an hour later, Su Xiao left the secluded street, having handed over the [Holy Tin Crystal Stone (Rare Material·Legendary Level)] to Reed. Additionally, he gave Reed a small piece of [Condensed Crystal], which he had traded from Octopus Bro, and also left 400,000 Paradise coins.

Walking on the way back to his exclusive room, after handling several things, Su Xiao was ready to open the treasure chests he had in hand.

The gains from opening these chests, Su Xiao planned to sell most of them for Paradise coins, as he urgently needed Paradise coins in the near future.

Improving sword technique, inlaying three legendary level gemstones, enhancing newly acquired passive abilities, mastering new potion recipes—all of these are major expenditures of Paradise coins, the total amount needed is an astonishing number, even enough to drag down a small adventure group.

Fortunately, Su Xiao still had over a dozen unopened treasure chests. Just as he hurriedly pushed open the door to his exclusive room, the scene before his eyes made him freeze.

Yes, Su Xiao froze; at this moment, the exclusive room was as if it was swept by a typhoon.

Su Xiao was somewhat immune to this kind of scene, thanks to the combination of the Chief Director of the Demolition Department·Bubu Wang + Director of the Demolition Department·A Mu, which greatly increased Su Xiao’s heart’s capability.

What stunned Su Xiao was that Bubu Wang was lying on the carpet sound asleep, and Shadow Hunter·Bennie was actually resting on Bubu Wang’s tail, also sleeping sweetly!

In the corner, A Mu’s arms were spread wide, seemingly protecting something. Seeing Su Xiao return, A Mu hurriedly waved its hand.

"It wasn’t... me, it wasn’t me..."

Su Xiao knew it wasn’t A Mu’s doing either. He approached Bubu Wang, and aimed a hefty slipper strike at Bubu Wang’s butt amidst its sleep.

The familiar impact sensation made Bubu Wang leap up abruptly, directly tossing Meow Star People Bennie out.

Bennie rolled on the ground a few times; after overcoming its initial bewilderment, it pounced towards Bubu Wang.

"Meow howl!"

"Woof!"

Fur flew everywhere; a cat and a dog wrestled into a ball. Ten minutes later, Bubu Wang and Bennie out of their own pockets reorganized the exclusive room, restoring its cleanliness with no signs of its previous state.

This cat and dog duo was quite interesting, sometimes squabbling, sometimes getting along very well, as for Honest Niu A Mu, it became the exclusive scapegoat cow.

Previously, A Mu was protecting that Black Maple Tree, which had now grown to 30 cm tall. When Su Xiao tried meditating, this Black Maple Tree already seemed to have a bonus effect.

Upon first arriving at Reincarnation Paradise, Bennie quickly ran out to wander around, the place was so fascinating that it didn’t miss the jungle it used to live in, where there was nothing but trees.

This cat would disappear even if not let go, just like in the Reincarnation Paradise, similar situations were conceivable in the Derivative World.

Su Xiao strongly suspected that he could only see Bennie twice in the Derivative World, at the world’s beginning and at the world’s end, just those two times.

Sitting at a wooden table, Su Xiao took out the treasure chests one by one from the storage space.

[Legendary treasure box (War World production) ×1.]

[Legendary treasure box (Hot Rainforest Forest production) ×1.]

[Crimson treasure box ×10.]

...

Su Xiao decided to open the crimson treasure boxes first, which were different from the scarlet cards. Similarly, they offer a three-choice option, but allow selection from three items in the deceased’s storage space, or the deceased’s skill or equipment.

Su Xiao would certainly not choose to randomly select three items from the storage space; selecting equipment or skills would be the most reliable choice.

After contemplating for a moment, Su Xiao decided to choose skills. The reason was simple: skill scrolls are easier to sell and can fetch more Paradise coins.

A Mu has opened so many treasure chests that it could drive oneself to despair, hence the ten crimson treasure boxes could only be opened by Su Xiao and Bubu Wang. Luck plays less of a role in opening skill scrolls, so he didn’t use Fate Redemption. As for those two legendary treasure boxes, Su Xiao wouldn’t open them for now, as he had other plans.

[You have obtained ’Spirit of Dreams’ (Active·Skill Scroll).]

[You have obtained ’Divine Judgment’ (Active·Skill Scroll).]

[You have obtained ’Rare Ore Polishing’ (Passive·Skill Scroll).]

[You have obtained ’Shovel Specialization’ (Passive·Skill Scroll).]

...

[You have obtained ’Dance of Death Penalty’ (Active·Skill Scroll).]

After all the treasure chests were opened, with ten skill scrolls in hand, Su Xiao began evaluating the value of these scrolls and setting prices.

Su Xiao did not go to the trading market to sell these scrolls; instead, he let Bubu Wang, Bennie, and A Mu set up a stall in the trading market.

Bubu Wang was very experienced in this; it often set up stalls together with Su Xiao, and the black-robed A Mu was responsible for disguising as a Contractor, while Bennie observed the prices and prepared for future treasure hunts.

During the past few days in the Hot Rainforest Forest, due to unfamiliarity with rare materials, its findings were quite comical. A rough estimate showed that all the materials (61 types) it had gathered were worth a total of 8 Paradise coins! Not 8,000, but just 8... 𝑓𝑟ℯℴ𝓂

Although Bennie didn’t find anything valuable, it was indeed treasure hunting, so Su Xiao had no issue with it. For Bennie, those items were indeed treasures.

Su Xiao headed straight for the Skill Upgrade Hall; he needed to enhance the Goddess’s affection ability, which had a very simple effect. Every Level 10 enhancement would permanently increase 1 point of Luck Attributes.

This was also why Su Xiao hadn’t opened the legendary treasure boxes; he was about to transform into a European King, throwing the Black Chief Aura far away. Whether the Black Chief Aura is a boomerang and would fly back remains uncertain, but Su Xiao clearly remembered the Goddess of Luck’s sentiment previously:

"Such luck to have survived until now, a miracle, or perhaps you’ve grown stronger very fast? To be able to ignore the influence of luck in certain circumstances?"

Su Xiao actually doesn’t hope to become a European King; as long as his luck reaches the level of an ordinary contractor, he can grow stronger at a faster pace.

Soon, Su Xiao arrived at the Skill Upgrade Hall.

The War World had just ended, and contractors had a lot of Paradise coins in hand, so the Skill Upgrade Hall was packed with people, the worker ladies responsible for reception were sweating profusely.

A bunny girl with a smiling face, yet unable to hide the fatigue in her brows and eyes, greeted Su Xiao.

Seeing this bunny girl, Su Xiao recalled that they had met once before, that line from her: ’We are a legitimate Reincarnation Paradise certification agency, even if I dress like this, I wouldn’t provide that kind of service,’ left Su Xiao some impression.

Under the triple combo of the bunny girl selling cuteness, selling allure, and selling misery, Su Xiao traded 50 Paradise coins to her. Clearly, last time, the bunny girl saw Su Xiao wasn’t too strong and didn’t expect him to tip, as surviving isn’t easy within Reincarnation Paradise.

This time, however, was different. Just standing next to Su Xiao, she had a sense of fright, indicating that Su Xiao was very strong, hence she aimed for a tip.

Su Xiao entered the skill upgrading warehouse, and a prompt appeared.

[Welcome to the Skill Upgrade Warehouse, please select the ability you wish to enhance.]

Su Xiao selected ’Goddess’s affection Lv.1,’ and the prompt appeared again.

[To enhance ’Goddess’s affection Lv.1,’ it requires 20,000 Paradise coins, Do you want to pay? Yes/No.]

Level 1 cost 20,000 Paradise coins, exceedingly expensive. It’s worth noting that Goddess’s affection needs to be upgraded to Lv.10 to provide benefits.
