Chapter 481: Color Blocks
Finally, there was that black box. Lin Ye didn't open it directly. Instead, he first checked its system information.
【Black Treasure Chest】
【It contains a specialty product from a certain Plane. Only those who have obtained the qualification can safely open it, as specialty products are not necessarily safe items】
【Note: Do you have the qualification to open it?】
"A specialty product... feels like there's more troublesome stuff inside."
Although he had a bad feeling, Lin Ye still opened the box.
Inside the box was a multi-colored cube. The cube was covered with a large number of small squares, and the colors on the squares were constantly changing.
"A Rubik's Cube?"
Lin Ye picked up the cube. He wasn't sure if it was a Rubik's Cube because the colors on the squares kept changing.
【Color Cube】 【Dreamrealm Relic. The user can freely rotate the cube, but each rotation will produce a different effect. When all colors on one face are the same, the user will receive a blessing. When the colors on all six faces are respectively the same, the Color Cube will grant the user's wish】
【Note: This is a gift from the depths of the Dreamrealm】
"... knew it wasn't something good. Why can't I resist?"
Lin Ye really wanted to slap his past self.
Relics with prefixes are never easy to deal with. This was another dangerous item suitable for adding to the Risk Hedging Plan.
Putting the Color Cube into the basement, Lin Ye wasn't prepared to carry such a dangerous item outside for now.
After dealing with the loot, Lin Ye picked up the gift box placed in the center of the Shelter. This was a gift from an unknown source, but he could probably guess who sent it.
Lin Ye opened the extremely luxurious-looking black gift box. Inside the box were a letter and a black formal gown.
【Sacrificial Night】
【Relic. This is a formal gown made from the corpse of the Lord of Night. Only a true powerhouse can wear it】
【Note: The Lord of Night is watching you】
The letter was from the families of Ayla and the others. This gown was their gift of thanks. Ayla's father thanked Lin Ye in the letter for saving the descendants of the various families and reminded Lin Ye that this gift was their sentiment, but whether to wear it or not was Lin Ye's own decision.
After all, this gown was very dangerous. Until now, it had never found its first master.
If Lin Ye was unwilling to bear the risk, he could also exchange this gown for items he needed.
Lin Ye put away the letter and picked up Sacrificial Night for a look.
This was a formal gown with a restrained design yet full of majesty. The black fabric was as deep as the night itself. Lin Ye's mental energy couldn't penetrate the surface of the gown at all.
"At least it doesn't have a prefix."
Lin Ye took off the Nightfall Formalwear and put on Sacrificial Night.
"... Why don't I feel anything at all?"
Although the system Shelter was an absolute Safe Zone, generally in such situations, Lin Ye would at least feel some unusual sensations.
After putting on Sacrificial Night, besides feeling very comfortable wearing it, Lin Ye had no other sensations.
If not for the system information, Lin Ye would have thought those families were tricking him.
After unpacking the gifts, Lin Ye began taking care of the plants and animals inside the Shelter and prepared breakfast for himself.
Now only the Nameless Armor remained unprocessed. He planned to go to the Game Room in the afternoon to take a look... hopefully that attendant wouldn't mind.
After preparing breakfast, Lin Ye opened the Group Chat and the Music Box and began eating.
(522943/1000000)
"Seniors, has anyone completed the Mining Area Task? I'm begging for a guide!"
"Same here!"
"Thanks to Brother Lin and the seniors who provided guides, I completed the Mining Area Task last night. The process was relatively smooth. I'll write a guide and post it later."
"Senior, you're awesome!"
"I only stayed inside for a month, but this month was very fulfilling. I suggest everyone can prepare some skills that need practice to take inside, or learn something inside. It's rare rest time."
"Wow, as expected of a senior, still having time to learn knowledge inside."
"I've learned my lesson. I'll write down the combat techniques I got before and then go in."
"What kind of mining area did the senior unlock?"
"It's the spiritual energy crystals mining area. I haven't gone yet. If you need spiritual energy crystals in the future, you can come to me."
"So strong! There are many places where spiritual energy crystals are used... uh, if many people unlock this type of mining area, will spiritual energy crystals drop in price..."
"Someone in the trading area has already started selling them off..."
"Going to grab a couple cheap ones right now."
"Don't blindly sell them off. Spiritual energy crystals are important consumables. No matter how much is produced, the trading area can absorb it. And not everyone is a senior. The senior's output is also hard to say. It's still too early to sell now."
"Upstairs, you don't happen to have equipment that produces spiritual energy crystals, do you?"
"Probably so."
"Then why aren't you buying the dip?"
"I hoarded a batch before and just finished selling them all."
"Holy crap! The price of spiritual energy crystals has crashed!"
"Not chatting anymore. I'm going to buy the dip."
"I'll wait until the trading area stabilizes a bit more."
"Huh, other materials related to minerals have also dropped in price."
"Really? Let me take a look."
...
After finishing breakfast and closing the Group Chat and Music Box, Lin Ye first went to the Rule Mining Area to mine for an hour before returning to the bed in the Shelter to begin the daily simulation.
【Please choose to start a new simulation task or enter the simulation base】
"Start a new simulation task."
……………………………………
【Simulated D-Class personnel: Marty】
【Remaining Simulation Attempts: 10】
This time, it wasn't the familiar prison transport vehicle start. Lin Ye, wearing prison garb, was locked in a prison cell.
Marty was a white male in his thirties. His physical fitness was quite good, clearly someone who exercised regularly.
'What's the situation this time?'
Lin Ye acted completely normal. There was no spiritual energy in the cell, and he couldn't determine if there was surveillance around.
After about five minutes, an overseer opened the prison cell door and led Lin Ye out of the cell.
Lin Ye walked ahead of the overseer. On both sides of the corridor were prison cells. The cells here were somewhat strange. The cell doors were all solid metal doors, without even windows. It was impossible to observe the inside of the cells from the outside.
The overseer sent Lin Ye into a room similar to a lounge. He wasn't the first D-Class personnel sent into the room.
"Hey, another one's here."
The speaker was a robust elderly black man.
"Little guy, this must be your first time, right? Hope you don't cry later."
A middle-aged white man with a protruding belly looked at Lin Ye somewhat excitedly.
Including Lin Ye, there were only four D-Class personnel in the room. The remaining D-Class personnel was a middle-aged white woman. She was currently 'facing the wall in contemplation,' muttering something under her breath.
Lin Ye didn't speak casually. This simulation task was likely to be conducted inside the organization's base, which was quite disadvantageous for him.
