Thinking about the scene of these people opening treasure chests in the future, Fang Yue couldn’t help himself again.

“Ahem!”

He coughed to compose himself before explaining.Full novel: Genshin Impact: I’m playing hide-and-seek in Teyvat — read the rest free on N​o⁠v​e⁠l​C⁠o​d⁠e​x⁠.​o⁠r​g⁠

“Paimon, you have two choices now.

The first is to open the treasure chest directly.

The second is to choose to upgrade the treasure chest.”

“The treasure chest can be upgraded?”

Paimon was stunned.

She had never heard of treasure chests that could be upgraded!

“Of course.

My treasure chests have different grades.

For example, yours is a Silver-grade treasure chest, but its quality is only N.

So, what do you think?

Do you want to open it?”

Paimon was completely confused.

There were grades and qualities?

Her little brain couldn’t keep up with all of this.

Lumine spoke from the side.

“Could you explain it more clearly?

We’re all a little confused by what you’re saying.”

“Of course!”

Fang Yue nodded.

The treasure chest system was actually quite complicated.

Even he had spent some time figuring it out when he first obtained it.

“Treasure chests are divided into Bronze, Silver, Gold, and Diamond grades.

Each treasure chest is then divided into N, R, SR, SSR, and the highest UR quality.

Of course, UR-quality items can only appear in Gold-grade treasure chests or above.”

“You can choose to upgrade the treasure chest.

Its quality will then randomly change between N and SSR.

There are also two special types of treasure chests: the White Box and the Black Box.”

Everyone finally understood.

So treasure chests could be played like this!

Paimon looked at the large N displayed on the treasure chest.

The grade is pretty good, but the quality is the worst N grade.

Wouldn’t it be better to just upgrade it once?

She was just about to choose the upgrade option when Lumine quickly pulled her back.

“You mentioned the White Box and Black Box.

What are those?”

Fang Yue immediately became interested when the topic came up.

With a mischievous grin, he replied,

“These two treasure chests are quite extraordinary!”

“As long as the White Box appears, it can directly increase the treasure chest’s grade!

In other words, if a White Box appears, this Silver-grade treasure chest will immediately become a Gold-grade treasure chest.

How about that?

Pretty amazing, right?”

The Intelligence Room, which had been relatively quiet after the shock Fang Yue had brought everyone, instantly became noisy again.

[Arataki Itto: There’s actually something this good?

Why can’t I ever run into it?!]

[Hu Tao: Jealous, envious, and resentful!

I want to participate in this game too.

Even the rewards can be upgraded!]

[Ningguang: So there are methods like this as well.

I wonder if opening a lottery shop like this in Liyue would work!]

[Xingqiu: As expected of you!]

[Chongyun: As expected of you!]

[Zhongli: The White Box offers abundant rewards.

Then what about the corresponding Black Box?

I’m afraid the Black Box isn’t something beneficial.]

Zhongli was still clear-headed.

There was no such thing as getting rewards for nothing.

This Black Box was probably even more troublesome than the traps!

His words immediately influenced everyone else, and they all joined the discussion.

[Yanfei: Right, there’s also a Black Box!

That thing definitely can’t be anything good!]

[Lisa: Makes sense.

With Fang Yue’s personality, do you really think he’d let you take the reward that easily?]

[Beidou: What’s there to fear?

At worst, I’ll embarrass myself once.

I’m still more interested in what’s inside the treasure chest!]

[Bennett: So I have to rely on luck to upgrade it?

Then am I doomed?]

[Barbara: Uh…

With your luck, it’s entirely possible that you’ll get nothing but Black Boxes!]

[Bennett: I feel like the whole world is picking on me!]

[Razor: Ben…

Bennett, un…

unlucky!]

…..

Outside the Intelligence Room, Paimon was already rubbing her hands in anticipation.

“Come on, I want to up—Mmph!”

Before she could finish speaking, Lumine pulled her back again.

I’m so tired.

If it weren’t for the fact that Paimon had shared those spicy strips with her, Lumine would have just ignored her.

This Paimon was a typical example of only seeing the thief enjoy the meat without seeing the thief get beaten!

“What about the Black Box?

Can that be upgraded too?”

It seemed Lumine was still rational.

Fang Yue had originally wanted to trick Paimon into taking another gamble, but seeing that Lumine had stopped her, he could only continue explaining.

“The Black Box is even more powerful.

Just like the White Box, it can also increase the treasure chest’s grade.

In fact, the highest quality, UR, can only be obtained from a Black Box!” The source of this chapter is g.com.

“Mr.

Fang Yue, you wouldn’t happen to have something else you haven’t told us, would you?”

Jean looked at Fang Yue with an expression that clearly said she didn’t believe a word he was saying.

She refused to believe that someone with Fang Yue’s personality would be this kind-hearted.

There was definitely some huge trap hidden inside that Black Box!

“Ahem!”

Fang Yue coughed awkwardly several times before saying,

“However, the Black Box will contain certain tasks that need to be completed.

Completing the tasks can not only upgrade the treasure chest, but also grant additional rewards.”

“If you fail to complete them, the treasure chest will automatically be destroyed!”

Good grief.

So after saying all that, this was what he had been waiting for.

Everyone glanced sideways at him, wearing expressions that seemed to say they had known it all along.

“Hey!

Although you have to complete a task, the rewards are very generous.

Right now, you’re opening a treasure chest worth 100,000 points.

If you want to obtain the most valuable item, then it obviously has to come from the UR tier!”

Kamisato Ayato understood now.

This treasure chest was basically a trap.

So I spent all that effort searching for this thing, only to find out I can’t even get the full reward?

What if I open something worth five points?

Where am I supposed to go cry about that?

Seeing Paimon starting to hesitate, Fang Yue quickly asked,

“Well?

Little Paimon!

Want to try upgrading it?”

“Hmm~~~~~!”

Paimon crossed her little arms and thought for a long time, unable to make up her mind.

The corners of Venti’s mouth curled upward.

“Go for it, little Paimon.

Yours is the lowest quality anyway.

You might as well take a gamble and raise the quality a little.

As for those Black Boxes and White Boxes, how could they possibly appear that easily?”

Paimon thought about it.

That makes sense!

I’m already at the lowest quality.

As long as I upgrade once and raise the quality, I’ll stop immediately.

Wouldn’t that be perfect?

“I’ve decided!

I choose to upgrade the treasure chest!”

As soon as she finished speaking, the treasure chest began to change.

The letter representing its quality, N, began rapidly cycling through different letters.

Paimon stared at the flashing letters, her heart rising into her throat.

[Upgrade complete.

Silver N has been upgraded to Silver SR!]
