Monster Treasure Chest

With the hints from his talent, Su Yu naturally wouldn't rely on brute force to drag this treasure chest up.

Su Yu began walking back and forth along the island, pulling and tugging, gradually drawing the wooden treasure chest beneath the water's surface closer to the shore.

Finally, with a burst of strength from Su Yu, the wooden treasure chest in the water was successfully hauled onto the bank.

Knowing exactly what was inside, Su Yu didn't dawdle and chose to open the wooden treasure chest immediately.

[Type 59 Pistol]

Description: Magazine capacity of 8 rounds, effective range of 50 meters, high lethality against ordinary humans and animals.

Note: The range is limited; please fire at close range to ensure maximum lethality.

Thanks to the Double Happiness talent, Su Yu naturally harvested two Type 59 Pistols along with 16 matching rounds of ammunition.

As soon as he held the gun, a flash of excitement couldn't help but cross Su Yu's eyes; after all, in the peaceful era Su Yu came from, ordinary people rarely had the chance to handle a real firearm.

After fumbling around to load the bullets into the magazine in a professional manner, Su Yu raised the gun and aimed at a pile of lumber stacked not far away.

"Bang." With the sound of a gunshot, Su Yu successfully fired his first shot.

After testing the gun's performance, Su Yu didn't waste any more bullets; after all, a gun without ammo is no different from scrap metal, so it was better to use it sparingly.

If it weren't for figuring out how to use this thing, Su Yu wouldn't have wanted to waste a shot on the lumber.

Setting the gun aside, Su Yu threw himself back into the grand cause of fishing; there was no helping it, life on the island was just that dull and monotonous.

However, for Su Yu, his fishing was far better than anyone else's; not only did he have a cheat-like talent, but he also possessed a monstrous Insight Talent, making his start truly destined for greatness.

Others didn't have that kind of luck to guarantee a catch every time; quite a few were coming up empty-handed, while others were just pulling up a pile of junk.

If Su Yu hadn't had the hints from his Insight Talent to choose a spot rich in underwater resources, his situation would likely be much like everyone else's.

"Yo, nice, another treasure chest on the hook." Noticing the float sink again, a flash of joy crossed Su Yu's eyes.

After all, every time the float sank, it meant a treasure chest was hooked!

"What the hell, what did I just hook?" Just as joy flashed in his eyes, Su Yu was suddenly jerked off balance by the force coming from the fishing rod.

If Su Yu hadn't been standing more than a meter away from the edge of the sea, that pull would have dragged him right into the water.

Regaining his composure, Su Yu gripped the fishing rod with both hands and carefully pulled back with all his might.

But just as Su Yu retreated a small distance, the force from the rod immediately forced him to take a small step forward again.

At this moment, Su Yu was pleasantly surprised, because through the two fishing alerts from his Insight Talent, he discovered that the higher the star rating of the treasure chest, the greater its struggle.

And right now, Su Yu clearly felt that the force coming from the water was much stronger than the force of the ★ Common Wooden Treasure Chest he had just reeled in.

Combined with the star-rating range of chests caught with Common Bait, Su Yu felt that what was on the hook this time was definitely a ★★ Common Monster Treasure Chest.

He just didn't know what was inside this chest.

Subsequently, under Su Yu's continuous pulling, the object beneath the water finally broke the surface.

[★★ Common Monster Treasure Chest]

Description: This treasure chest contains a Low-level Goblin. After fishing it up, you may choose to open the chest to release the goblin.

Note: You can only obtain the treasure chest rewards after defeating or killing the goblin.

[Low-level Goblin]

Strength: 1.5

Physique: 2

Spirit: 1.5

Weapon: Broadsword.

Evaluation: The trashiest thing among goblins, possessing simple construction abilities. Based on your current items, the best method of response is to use a firearm.

Glancing at the chest that had just floated to the surface, Su Yu noticed that the information flashing before his eyes was much more detailed than before.

"So I've encountered a special type of chest; I wonder what the rewards will be after killing this thing." After clearly seeing this information, Su Yu became interested, as this kind of chest brought back the joy of opening blind boxes.

If he hadn't fished up the firearms first, he would have had to consider whether or not to open this special chest.

After all, although the guy inside had lower overall stats than himself—who had the island's buffs—this thing had a weapon!

But now, with two guns in his possession, Su Yu clearly had no such concerns, especially since his Insight Talent had already provided the optimal strategy.

Soon, Su Yu began a long tug-of-war with the monster chest beneath the water, and after twenty minutes of extreme pulling, he finally hauled the monster chest up.

Looking at the monster chest before him, Su Yu set the fishing rod aside, picked up the two [Type 59 Pistols], touched the chest quickly, and silently willed it to open.

After the silent command, Su Yu immediately retreated a distance, his eyes locked firmly on the location of the monster chest.

Suddenly, Su Yu saw a flash of white light, and a guy less than 1.5 meters tall with a slightly hunched figure appeared directly before his eyes.

Seeing this, Su Yu pulled the trigger immediately, not giving the goblin any time to react.

At this moment, the goblin, just released from the monster chest, hadn't even had time to figure out its surroundings before it felt multiple sharp pains across its body, and then, with a blackness before its eyes, it collapsed.

Although Su Yu hadn't undergone professional shooting training, he had played with slingshots as a child, and at such close range, he could still aim accurately.

Just to be safe, Su Yu fired 5 rounds in one go, punching five bullet holes directly into the goblin's body.

[Ding, you have killed the monster inside the ★★ Common Monster Treasure Chest, a Low-level Goblin. You may choose one of the following rewards.]

[Option 1: One Low-level Goblin slave.]

[Option 2: The construction knowledge possessed by the Low-level Goblin.]

After Su Yu killed that Low-level Goblin, the reward options for the monster treasure chest appeared before his eyes.

Without much thought, Su Yu directly chose the goblin slave.

[Ding, your talent Double Happiness has triggered. You have obtained two goblin slaves.]

Following this notification, two goblins, identical to the one from just a moment ago, appeared out of thin air before Su Yu.

As for the goblin that had fallen to the ground, it simply dissipated.
