It seems that the proportion of good items in these treasure chests is very small; most of them are just junk. There are over 100,000 treasure chests here. How long will it take to open them all? Xiao Yu couldn't help but feel a little anxious. He glanced at Lady Xiwadelin beside him, who was smiling at him, seemingly deep in thought.

Azathoth (Water Elemental Lord): "You know what, don't you? If I'm not mistaken, this shouldn't be the real treasure."

Seeing that the other party did not refute, Xiao Yu immediately understood.

Azathoth (Water Elemental Lord): "In the name of my master, I command you to lead me to the true treasure."

"Follow me," said Lady Xiwadelin, heading towards the back of the vault. Xiao Yu hurriedly followed, hesitated for a moment, and then Qin Shiyue followed as well.

Behind the Booty Bay room, there was another large hall, but it was completely empty. The walls around the hall were carved with many stone sculptures and murals that seemed to depict some ancient story. They showed people in the sky releasing lightning and fire, and fighting with some huge, strange and terrifying monsters. Normally, Xiao Yu might have been interested in admiring those stone sculptures, as these details often hid secrets and clues in the game. But now, he only wanted to find the Seed of Elements and the Water of Life as soon as possible.

In the center of the main hall stood a statue of a Naga, seemingly sculpted based on a Naga queen. The female version of the sea goddess held a huge crystal ball in her hands, exactly the same as the crystal ball on the treasure vault door. Lady Xiwadelin walked up to the Naga goddess statue and suddenly injected a surge of energy into the statue. Immediately, crystal Booty Bay chests slowly rose from the ground on both sides of the main hall.

Through the crystal casing, one can clearly see all sorts of treasures inside. There are eight crystal Booty Bay chests in total, each containing one of eight treasures. As for the specific uses of these treasures, that's entirely a matter of opinion.

One of the Booty Bay chests prominently displayed a Seed of Elements, its sphere-like shape particularly eye-catching. In addition, there was a golden trident, a crystal bottle filled with purple liquid, a golden crown with a huge sapphire in the center, a conch shell emitting a faint glow, a ship in a bottle (a model of a sailboat inside a glass bottle), a mirror with a gold-carved frame, and a stone goddess statue.

Xiao Yu counted them; there were exactly eight pieces. He thought to himself, "That makes it easy to divide them."

Azathoth (Water Elemental Lord): "Alright, there are eight Booty Bay in total. You and I will each choose four. Who wants to go first?"

Qin Shiyue said, "Since you planned all of this, you should choose first."

Xiao Yu nodded, thinking to himself that this girl was quite shrewd. Although he felt that the chances of her choosing the Seed of Elements on her first try were not high, it was better not to take any risks if possible. This was not the time to be modest, so without saying a word, he smashed the Booty Bay chest, took the Seed of Elements in his hand, and put it into his bag.

(Haha, I finally got it! Now I'm one step closer to the Chaos Elemental.)

Qin Shiyue did not hesitate and directly chose the trident. Xiao Yu felt that this thing should be related to the ocean, and among all the equipment, the weapon is always the most valuable one.

Xiao Yu naturally chose the crystal bottle containing purple liquid as his second item; of the eight treasures, it was the only one that had anything to do with the Water of Life.

After holding it in my hand and examining it, I realized that acupuncture truly is the Water of Life.

Qin Shiyue chose the crown as her second treasure. She put it on her head and it looked quite fitting. Xiao Yu guessed that these two items were likely treasures that the Naga had stolen from the Merfolk Empire.

Then he chose the boat in the bottle and the mirror.

The conch shell and the goddess statue were taken by Qin Shiyue.

Xiao Yu looked at his haul.

Xiao Yu looked at the treasure in his hand and felt a surge of excitement. He was thrilled to have acquired four legendary items at once. Although two of them would be used up soon, the remaining two were still quite good.

The Magic Ship in a Bottle can summon a warship, making this mount incredibly powerful. Not only can it be used for riding, but it can also be used in naval battles. Most importantly, it can be shrunk down and stored in your inventory, which is extremely convenient.

The Magic Mirror of True Knowledge is even more amazing; you can ask a question and get the answer. Wow, it feels so fantastical.

(If I asked him what my future girlfriend would look like, I wonder what that would reveal?) Xiao Yu suddenly thought to himself.

However, he wasn't foolish enough to ask such a completely unrelated question. He didn't believe the system could calculate things in his real life. This Magic Mirror of True Knowledge was likely some kind of data query tool. For example, if he wanted to know which monster was best for a certain piece of equipment in the game, the Magic Mirror of True Knowledge could provide the answer. So, it was better to ask something related to the game. For example—he picked up the Magic Mirror of True Knowledge and looked at it. The mirror was black, like a bottomless abyss, or like a night sky obscured by dark clouds. Xiao Yu chose to ask a question.
