I Have a Treasure Cabinet

tunned.
“No skill?”

Li Shaoxi was eager to turn the system panel upside down.
“…There is none.”

Jian Yue: “……”

Li Shaoxi cautiously asked, “Are all the chosen people capable?”

Jian Yue was certain about this point.
“All of them.” Otherwise, it would be a dead end.

However, Jian Yue just thought the latter half of the sentence and didn’t say it out of fear that this person would cry.

Li Shaoxi was full of hope.
“Is there a possibility of someone developing a bit late and their ability appearing later?”

Jian Yue paused.

Li Shaoxi watched him eagerly.

“…It is possible,” Jian Yue murmured.

Li Shaoxi sighed with relief and comforted himself.
“It is okay if it is late… perhaps I am a late bloomer because my ability is too strong and it needs time to ferment.”

Li Shaoxi himself didn’t believe this nonsense.
However, what could he do? There was no skills button on his system panel!

Li Shaoxi had to find a way for himself to live.
“That… Brother Yue…”

Jian Yue’s attitude toward him was much better.
“Yes?”

This improved attitude didn’t comfort Li Shaoxi but made him even more afraid—Bigshot, your attitude is like you are talking to a terminally ill patient!

Li Shaoxi didn’t give up.
“Can I return to a peaceful life after leaving here?”

These f*king gold, silver and gems could go away.
He wanted to pay off the debt but he wanted to live more.

What field? He didn’t want to come in again!

Jian Yue: “……”

Li Shaoxi’s heart sank.
“Will I be chosen again?”

Jian Yue shook his head.
“You can only be chosen once.”

Li Shaoxi’s eyes lit up.
“So I just need to go out and later…”

“You will be a resident player and will be pulled into a random field every seven days.”

Li Shaoxi: “………”

The young man who faced a debt of 80 million yuan with no desperation was now on the verge of desperation! What type of ghostly thing was this? Every seven days, he would be randomly pulled into a dangerous place?

The key was that other people had an ability while he didn’t have one? This f*king thing didn’t choose him, it wanted to kill him!

He was fortunate enough to meet Jian Yue by chance in this field.
Then what about the next field? Jian Yue saved him because of benevolence, righteousness and kindness.
Could Jian Yue protect him again and again? He wasn’t shameless enough to be a giant baby who relied on others every day!

He was just about to lose his mind when the system was heard.

[On the third day, the heroes haven’t returned.]

Li Shaoxi woke up with a jolt.

The first day, the second day, the third day…

Yes, his mission was to survive for three days, not to clear the game.
He didn’t need to fight the boss, he just needed to survive.

Three days had passed so he…

Li Shaoxi hurriedly clicked on the task button and saw a new message appear after the task: [The task is completed and the player will exit the game in 10 seconds.]

Li Shaoxi: “!!!”

There was nothing in his luggage! His bag was empty! Previously, in order to save Jian Yue, he had emptied his bag of rubies into the sea and there was no time to fill it up again.

There were only 10 seconds left.
Not only did he have no ability but he was going to return empty-handed?

F*k, he couldn’t get rid of this big injustice!

Li Shaoxi couldn’t make small talk and rushed to the treasure box in one second.
He used another second to open the box and started to fill his bag.
He didn’t care about the ‘cost-performance ratio’ or whether it was suitable or not.
Now it was a race against time!

“Brother Yue…” Li Shaoxi kept talking while his hands were busy.
“My name is Li Shaoxi and my WeChat is…”

He was able to tell Jian Yue his contact information but he didn’t know if the other person could remember it.
Then his vision turned black.

The countdown ended and he returned to reality.

Li Shaoxi’s body was soaked in sweat when he took off the VR device.
The morning sun shone into the room.
He had spent ‘three days’ in the game but it seemed to be just a moment in reality.

Nothing had changed.
The clock moved slowly from 7:08 to 7:09.

Li Shaoxi pressed a hand against his temple to suppress the surging dizziness and turned his head to look around.

There was a Ravenclaw badge hanging on the wall and two rows of bookshelves next to it.
The other side of the bookshelf contained a Lego display stand that contained the countless Legos he had built since he was a child.
There was also the desk, chair and bunk bed with a four-piece Ravenclaw set.

It was his bedroom.
His bedroom that was full of a chuunibyou style.

He was back.
He had returned home.

Li Shaoxi took a breath and continued to look around.

What about his gems? There were so many sapphires!

—It is useless.

—Everything here doesn’t exist in the real world.

Jian Yue’s words echoed in his mind and Li Shaoxi was extremely disappointed.
So…

It wasn’t true.

Not only did he have no ability but he also didn’t have the gems.
Not only did he face an 80 million debt but he also had to experience a life or death game every seven days.

Li Shaoxi… Li Shaoxi was only 18 years old.
It was too much burden to carry so early!

Li Shaoxi fell onto the bed and raised his hand weakly, trying to cover his eyes and take deep breaths.

He had just raised his arm when he found that there was a bracelet on his wrist.

The morning light fell on the thin forearm.
The slender, dark blue bracelet was tightly attached to his wrist.
It was around the width of a finger.
The material was soft but the color was as transparent as a sapphire.

Sap, phi, re?

Li Shaoxi tapped on the bracelet.
There was a bang and a half a meter, square ‘box’ suddenly unfolded in front of him.

Li Shaoxi sat up in fright.
The ‘box’ stood like a projection and the distance was just within Li Shaoxi’s reach.
This…

It was like the package interface of the game but it was even more amazing and realistic.
Li Shaoxi was very sure that he was in his bedroom at home.
So… the thing in front of him was definitely not in the game.

What was it?

This thought had just flashed through his mind when a line of words popped up above the box: [Juduoduo’s card bag, abbreviated as Duobaoge.]

Li Shaoxi: “……” This abbreviation had nothing to do with it except for the ‘Duo’ part!

The Duobaoge erased these words on its own and another line emerged: [Initial card slot: 80 (full).]

Li Shaoxi was stunned.
His weight in Treasure Miner was exactly 80.
Then these words disappeared and several more sentences emerged one after another.

[Current level: 2.]

[Hatching card slots: 2.]

[Hatching level: 2.]

The rows of 2s made Li Shaoxi’s mouth twitch.
2, 2, 2, who was it scolding?

After these words disappeared, the Duobaoge opened.

Li Shaoxi saw the full 80 cards.

Apart from the different ratings, there were 76 cards that were the same sapphire blue color with different sapphires drawn on them.

The last four weren’t gem cards.
They were the equipment that Li Shaoxi didn’t have time to take off.

He took out one of them.
It was impressively drawn with the staff he had used in the game.

TL: Duobaoge is also known as Treasure Cabinet.
I was unsure which version to use in the title but decided on Treasure Cabinet because most people wouldn’t know what a Duobaoge is and I can’t footnote a title.

Duobaoge is a type of special cabinet consisting of tiered or offset shelving in various sizes and shapes to store antiques/collectibles.
