The Pot of Greed

Xiao Yang hadn't expected things to turn out this way. Of course, he'd even less expected the colors of the three items that had appeared before him.

Dungeon Delver seemed to have treated the Myriad Worlds Trading Area as a world-class dungeon and delved into it, so a wave of world-class rewards had appeared before Xiao Yang.

Two purple items and one gold.

Good grief, who said Dungeon Delver was no good? This talent was amazing!

The two purple items were:

Rainbow Staff

Quality: Epic

Class Requirement: Elemental Mage

Effect: Attribute magic gained an additional chain effect.

Description: The most eye-catching staff, crafted from the most precious rainbow elemental gemstones.

Red Dragon's Fang

Quality: Epic

Type: Weapon, Longblade

Class Requirement: Dragonkin

Effect: Unlocks Red Dragon transformation, extraordinary resistance to fire, and resistance to magic of all attributes.

Description: This was a tooth shed by an Ancient Red Dragon. Of course, it wasn't because of a cavity. In fact, that Ancient Red Dragon had been punched in the face by a strange guy shouting, "Strong! Powerful! Mighty!" on a strange plane.

Were these two purple items any good? They were incredible. One was a purple staff, but for mages, it could practically serve as a minor divine artifact.

The other could unlock Red Dragon transformation. If Xiao Yang could use either one, he'd probably be able to sweep through that little Skeleton Dungeon with ease.

There was just one problem: both items had class requirements.

One required an Elemental Mage, the other a Dragonkin. Where was Xiao Yang supposed to find classes like those?

He sighed helplessly. These two items weren't meant for him, and there was nothing he could do about it. With three choices, he could only pick the random Gift Box. He had no other option but to gamble!

Xiao Yang told himself this deep down, but his expression grew more and more unrestrained.

Well, in truth, even if one of those items had been meant for him, he'd probably still have gambled. Why? Because the light shining from the third, random Gift Box was gold.

Legendary Gift Box

Quality: Legendary

Type: Consumable

Effect: Open the box. There is a high probability of receiving a random item of the same quality as the Gift Box, and a low probability of receiving a random item of the next higher quality.

"Golden Legendary!"

Xiao Yang immediately chose the Gift Box. In that instant, the Rainbow Staff and Red Dragon's Fang faded away, and dazzling golden light appeared before his eyes.

Pot of Greed

Quality: Legendary

Type: Curio

Effect: Potions consumed while in good condition provide permanent bonuses.

Description: Are potions really so inconvenient? Take another sip, then another. Nothing bad will happen! A wonderful gift!

A black iron pot appeared in Xiao Yang's hands. Its shell was engraved with an exaggerated face and a gaping mouth. If the system hadn't identified it as a Legendary item, and Xiao Yang hadn't just witnessed that golden light, who would have guessed it was gold quality?

Without examining the Pot of Greed in his hands for long, Xiao Yang hurriedly stowed it in his Personal Backpack. But now he was eager to test its effects.

As it happened, he'd just acquired a batch of Minor Health Potions. He took one from his Personal Backpack and poured it into his mouth.

His health was already full. After downing the Minor Health Potion, he opened his personal panel and saw a change that filled him with delight.

Health: 21/21

His health attribute had permanently increased by one point. Just like that, his maximum health had gone up by one.

In other words, Xiao Yang only needed ten Minor Health Potions to gain the equivalent of one Attribute Point. And the Pot of Greed wasn't limited to Health Potions; it seemed that all sorts of other potions could provide him with the same kind of permanent bonus.

As expected of a Golden Legendary!

Xiao Yang began taking Minor Health Potions out of his Personal Backpack and downing them one after another. He drank five in a row, bringing his health up to twenty-five points. He still had three left, and didn't drink his potion reserves dry all at once.

The Pot of Greed was great, but he still needed to be careful. Drinking all of these Minor Health Potions to convert them into real maximum health would certainly be the best and most cost-effective move.

But Xiao Yang wasn't actually playing a game. If he ran into a troublesome enemy or a life-threatening situation, a Health Potion could save his life!

After calming himself down, Xiao Yang didn't forget why he'd come here in the first place. He was here to buy supplies and solve his most urgent problems: food and water.

Of course, if possible, he also wanted to get his hands on some means of using fire: fire enchantments, Molotov cocktails, scrolls, and the like.

That was how he could clear out the Prisoner Zombies more efficiently.

With that in mind, Xiao Yang stepped into the bustling, bizarre Myriad Worlds Trading Area before him.

To be honest, this was his first time dealing with people and races from other worlds. He was practically an advance scout for Plane 33214.

Not far away, a tall elf stood. There was no other way to put it: she looked almost exactly like the elves of popular imagination—tall and beautiful. The only slight difference was that she was currently at a dwarf's stall, haggling over a green hand crossbow until her face turned red.

Xiao Yang glanced at some of the information the dwarf vendor had posted about the green hand crossbow.

A blue hand crossbow.

He only glanced at it before looking away, unimpressed.

It was only a blue hand crossbow. His Personal Backpack already contained a golden Legendary curio, after all. Nothing worth mentioning.

Xiao Yang was currently only level five, trapped in the Skeleton Dungeon with no way out, nearly starved to death and chased into a sorry state by the Bone Ball.

But there was a saying that still applied.

"The future looks bright!"

And, in fact, it really did. The Pot of Greed alone would be enough to make countless planes in the surrounding region—and even some not-so-powerful gods—green with envy.

After all, the Pot of Greed wasn't an ordinary Legendary item. Curios were a special category of item, and their level wasn't necessarily determined by their rank. Just judging by the Pot of Greed's ability,

its value absolutely surpassed that of some genuine divine artifacts.

With an item like this in his possession, saying that his future looked bright was no exaggeration. And for Xiao Yang, who had the Dungeon Delver talent, a Legendary curio like the Pot of Greed wouldn't be the end of the road, either.

His future truly looked bright.
