Xia Zhi thought of something, opened his inventory, and saw two unused treasure chests lying inside.
One is a platinum chest obtained from Yae no Miko, and the other is a diamond chest obtained from Kage.
Diamond chests don't matter for now; what's important is this platinum chest.
Because the item "Entangled Fate" is of Platinum quality, it can only be obtained by opening Platinum Chests...
Since that's the case, let's open a treasure chest and give it a try.
Xia Zhi pondered for a moment, then took out the diamond treasure chest from his inventory.
However, he did not open the treasure chest directly. Instead, he opened the [Shop] and spent 500 points to buy a [Lucky Potion].
Effect: Within one hour of drinking, luck is temporarily increased by 100%.
After drinking the [Lucky Potion], Xia Zhi then chose to open the treasure chest.
A light blue, hollowed-out sphere appeared before his eyes.
An Entangled Bond
Quality: Platinum.
Type: Disposable prop.
Characteristics: Destiny, Bonds.
Effect: Select a highly compatible partner in the current world and engage in a deep entanglement of fate.
Hidden effect: The higher the user's rank, the higher the rank of the extracted object.
Recyclable: 1000 points.
Sure enough, it was opened.
Xia Zhi reached out and grasped the familiar sphere, his expression turning thoughtful again.
He wasn't sure if it was his exceptionally high luck that allowed him to obtain the item he most desired.
It was the closed loop in the timeline that allowed me to obtain this item.
If it's the latter, then it means that the occurrence of the "Entangled Bond" is inevitable, regardless of the level of luck.
Xia Zhi played with the [Entangled Fate] in his hand for a moment, then used his time reversal ability to rewind time and revert the game.
The light blue sphere in his hand turned into specks of light and disappeared, transforming back into a platinum treasure chest.
Then, Xia Zhi opened the skill list and found a passive skill he had learned from Bennett: [The World's Outcast].
[The Abandoned by the World]: Passive, Luck value is always 0. Your actions will go against the will of the world and will reduce the luck value of those around you. The closer the relationship between you and the other person, the more their luck value will decrease.
Because the negative effects of this passive skill were so terrifying, Xia Zhi turned it off as soon as he obtained it.
I initially thought this skill was useless, but now I can use it to conduct an experiment.
Xia Zhi activated the passive skill of "The Abandoned by the World," and the extremely high luck value on the panel instantly dropped to 0.
Since increasing 0 by 100% still results in 0, the effect of the [Lucky Potion] cannot be activated.
Xia Zhi once again chose to open the platinum treasure chest in front of him.
A ball of light appeared before his eyes.
The Second Meditation Method
Quality: Platinum.
Type: Skill Book.
Characteristics: Passive, visualization.
Effect: Immediately gain the passive skill "Second Meditation" upon use, permanently increasing maximum mana by 1 point per minute.
Hidden effect: Reduces mana cost by 30%.
Recyclable: 1000 points.
Xia Zhi looked at it and fell silent.
This thing... is completely useless to him right now.
Because he possesses the "Book of Broad Learning," giving it to others would be a pure waste; its only use is to recycle it.
Is this the consequence of opening a box with zero luck?
Xia Zhi rolled back the file and restarted it several times.
Each time he opened a box, the items he got were different, but they all had one thing in common: they were useless to him right now.
Finally, Xia Zhi gave up trying, turned off the passive skill of [The World's Abandoner], and opened the box one more time thanks to his extremely high luck value.
This time, what appeared before him was a familiar pink and blue hollowed-out sphere.
【Entangled Fate】.
So, it's actually just that my luck was too high, which allowed me to get the item I wanted most...
and many more……
Although I've tried so many times, I ultimately chose "Entangled Bond," which seems to be a kind of time loop in itself...
Just as Xia Zhi was about to start thinking, he suddenly heard the system's voice in his mind.
"A prayer from a believer has been detected!"
--
Sumeru.
A quiet place somewhere.
A white-haired man wearing a mask and a special uniform suddenly stopped in his tracks.
He turned around, a playful smile playing on his lips.
Then he said, "Come out, little thing. I'll give you a chance to talk to me since you've followed me this far."
Cole appeared not far behind him.
She stared intently at the masked man before her, her eyes filled with hatred, her voice trembling with barely suppressed rage.
"Doctor, we've found you."
The doctor turned around, her expression still relaxed, but the smile on her lips seemed to have become even more playful because of her words.
"Oh, you're looking for me? That look in your eyes... could it be one of those little mice that escaped from my grasp before?"
mouse?
Upon hearing this, Ke Lai's eyes became even more terrifying.
"Don't you remember me?"
"There are too many failed experiments like you; I don't have the time to remember your names."
"But you should remember the laboratory you painstakingly built, shouldn't you?"
Cole mentioned the name of a place that no longer exists.
Upon hearing this, the doctor lowered his head slightly, as if he were thinking carefully.
"So that's where you escaped from... I remember that place was used to research Demon Scale Disease and Demon God Remnants... Hmm?"
The doctor stopped abruptly at this point.
He looked up at the girl's smooth, white hands with a curious yet intense gaze, as if he had discovered some extremely interesting new toy.
"If you escaped from there, you should have symptoms of Demon Scale Disease, but your hands are normal. Has your Demon Scale Disease been cured? Interesting. You also no longer have any trace of demonic remnants on you. Could it be that the experiment back then was successful? Have the two completely canceled each other out...?"
Cole frowned: "Get rid of that disgusting look in your eyes!"
The Doctor wasn't angry. He continued to scrutinize the girl before him, his gaze falling on the Grass-type Divine Eye at her waist. He seemed to understand something and chuckled, "So it was the gaze of the God of Wisdom that gave you the courage for revenge. That's good, otherwise if you had hidden away, I wouldn't have found such a good experimental subject."
"You still want to take me back?"
"You delivered yourself to my door."
"You will die here."
"Hahaha, what an ignorant and pathetic little mouse..."
Before the words were even finished, the Doctor's figure vanished.
He had already appeared behind Cole and was about to reach out to knock her unconscious on the back of the neck.
However, to his surprise, his hand missed.
Cole's figure had also disappeared.
The doctor looked somewhat surprised upon seeing this.
At the same time, he felt as if something terrifying was locking onto his back, and a strange sense of alarm rose in his heart.
He didn't turn around, but instead chose to forcefully shift his body away from where he was standing.
The next moment, a dark arrow silently grazed his cheek, easily severing a lock of his white hair.
If he hadn't reacted quickly enough, that arrow would have blown his head off.
