Chapter 47: Synthesizing the Treasure Chest, Provoking Again!

As soon as these words were spoken, the chat channel erupted once again.

Cai Kun: "God Ye, I've been waiting for this exact sentence. I have dozens of spirit herbs stored in my storage space, I'm coming over to make a fortune with you!"

Wang Gang: "God Ye, you've finally come online. I have so many ores and spirit fruits that no one can afford to buy, it's been driving me crazy."

Zhuang Liang: "Captain, I still have some here, help me sell them all. I want that shield, hehe, please help me buy it."

Wang Gang: "Oh, so you were waiting right here for me, huh?"

Wang Yun: "Captain, I want that skill book, I'll leave it all in your hands!!"

Wang Gang: "...."

Huang Peng: "I'm so torn. I just happened to find a gray treasure chest, but given my notoriously bad luck, opening it will probably just yield God-Demon Coins. Do you guys think this chest can be sold?"

Wang Gang: "Probably? Though if I find a chest, I usually just open it myself. It's just that my luck is also trash—I've opened 4 or 5 chests so far, and every single one of them only contained God-Demon Coins. Damn it, I haven't even seen a single piece of equipment."

Cai Kun: "Oh holy crap, tell me about it. I feel like giving a treasure chest to me to open is just a waste. If only we could sell them."

Lei Chen: "Sell them? Well, who would buy them? A gray treasure chest costs at least 100 to 200 God-Demon Coins, but if it turns out to contain only coins in the end, wouldn't you lose everything?"

Huang Peng: "Sigh, in that case, I might as well just open the chest myself."

Ye Chuyun: "Wait, hold on. Why don't you sell that chest to me instead? I'll buy it."

Huang Peng: "What the hell, God Ye, you want to buy it?"

Ye Chuyun: "Yeah, just for 200 God-Demon Coins. Sell it to me."

Huang Peng: "Alright, alright, alright!"

Wang Gang: "Damn it, God Ye, you should've said so earlier. I opened so many chests; if I'd known, I would've just sold them to you."

Ye Chuyun: "I honestly forgot about that. From now on, if any of you have treasure chests and want to sell them, you can all come to me. I'll take them all."

Lei Chen: "Got it, got it."

Cai Kun: "Understood, understood."

Wang Yun: "Okay, okay."

Having spent 200 God-Demon Coins, Ye Chuyun purchased a gray treasure chest from Huang Peng.

A flicker of delight flashed through Ye Chuyun's eyes.

Fortunately for Huang Peng's reminder, otherwise he truly would have let this matter slip his mind.

He could acquire treasure chests from other people and use them to synthesize higher-tier chests.

Right after he dropped that message in the chat channel, a few more people sent private messages expressing their desire to sell treasure chests.

By the time the trades concluded, Ye Chuyun now possessed a total of 8 gray treasure chests and 4 bronze treasure chests.

Ye Chuyun tried taking out the 8 gray treasure chests and initiated the synthesis.

The next second, the 8 gray treasure chests emitted a dazzling radiance, transforming into 2 bronze treasure chests.

Haha!

It worked!

The 8 gray treasure chests had only cost a combined total of 1,600 God-Demon Coins.

However, the value of those 2 bronze treasure chests would undoubtedly exceed 1,600 God-Demon Coins!

Even if others discovered in the future that treasure chests could be synthesized, Ye Chuyun believed they would ultimately still choose to sell them to him.

It was precisely because of the ridiculously low drop rates that they subconsciously gave up on opening chests themselves.

Since equipment and items couldn't be drawn from chests anyway, they might as well sell them to him and use the God-Demon Coins to purchase equipment and skill books instead.

The cost-performance ratio of doing so was simply much higher.

Just as Ye Chuyun was secretly feeling thrilled, Cai Kun suddenly sent a private message.

Cai Kun: "God Ye, hurry up and check the regional chat channel! Those bastards are saying they want revenge on us. There are too few of us from the Dragon Country, and with the speaking restrictions, we can't out-curse them."

Ye Chuyun: "What kind of nonsense are those scumbags stirring up again?"

Ye Chuyun frowned. He held zero favorable feelings toward these people who repeatedly provoked the Dragon Country over and over again.

Feeling deeply irritated, he opened the regional chat channel to see what was going on.

The moment he entered the regional chat channel, Ye Chuyun was instantly dazzled by a countless stream of messages.

Several hours had already passed since the faction war.

The regional chat channel had welcomed many newcomers, expanding by dozens of districts.

Among these dozens of districts, the vast majority were occupied by Sakura Country, Eagle Country, Kimchi Country, and various other smaller nations.

Regions belonging to the Dragon Country numbered only 3.

Seeing reinforcements arrive, the losers immediately puffed their chests out again, attempting to rally other countries to isolate and squeeze out the Dragon Country.

And so, both sides erupted into a fierce verbal war!

District 55 - Sharma Rafi: "Respected Mr. Wells, it was those Dragon Country districts that caused us and your compatriots to lose massive amounts of resources, and even resulted in the deaths of so many people. You must help us avenge this blood debt."

District 44 - Sam: "Oh, dear Wells, as fellow nobles, you must understand my feelings right now. You simply must avenge us."

District 125 - Wells: "Dear Sam, if it's truly as you say—that the Dragon Country is so despicable and slaughtered our Eagle Country compatriots—then they certainly deserve to die. Our District 125 will definitely not let them off the hook."

District 346 - Kitahara Sosuke: "And what about our Sakura Country compatriots? We've suffered so terribly! Resources are gone, people are dead... We must have our revenge."

District 752 - Miyamoto Sho: "Kuso, Sosuke-san, we will definitely avenge you."

District 388 - Wu Yong: "Well, well, well, number 346, you little Jap, didn't you say you'd commit seppuku if you lost? How come you're still not dead yet? Do you want me to act as your second and help send you on your way?"

District 28 - Park Jung-chan: "Look at them, how arrogant. We only ever get bullied; where would we ever dare to bully them?"

District 25 - Xiao Yun: "Keep acting, go on acting. Playing the victim card now, are we? Honestly, I kind of preferred how unyieldingly arrogant you all looked before."

District 336 - Kim Shi-jung: "Cripes, how innocent our Kimchi Country is, yet we were bullied by you Dragon Country people to this extent! We must exact revenge for this grievance!"

Polar Bear Country: "Uhm, let me step in and say a fair word here. You guys had better not let yourselves be led around by the nose. If a real war breaks out, you lot might not necessarily be a match for the Dragon Country."

Chariot Country: "I agree as well. You guys shouldn't act rashly."

Kangaroo Country: "I dare not speak, afraid of earning the grudge of the Dragon Country people."

District 137 - Liu Can: "Oh, is our Dragon Country really that awesome? Well, I'm quite proud of that."

District 225 - Li Zhenhua: "Hehe, you said it. Seeing how powerful our Dragon Country is feels damn good."

District 346 - Kitahara Sosuke: "Damn it, just you wait! On the third day when we take the train to the next location, we will definitely hunt you Dragon Country people down. Wash your necks and wait for us!"

District 55 - Sharma Rafi: "Hmph, indeed! Who knows, maybe the train's next stop will be right in your Dragon Country territory. Once we track you down, we will never let you go!"

As soon as these words dropped, the various districts of the Dragon Country erupted in fury!
