Chapter 471 Can we tell everyone the truth?
Lu Youyou quickly forwarded the message to all gang members and tagged them in the public chat.
However, her reminder did not earn her gratitude from some people, but rather their malicious speculation.
[Player 76663: You'd be so kind as to tell us this stuff? You're probably up to something, aren't you? Want us to give you a treasure chest? No way!]
[Player 45442: The more Lu Youyou wants the treasure chest, the better it must be. People die for wealth, birds die for food. We didn't steal or rob; we risked our lives to find this treasure chest ourselves. Why should we sell it to her?]
[Player 23767: The person upstairs makes a good point. I'm already being generous by not stealing other people's treasure chests, so naturally I won't give away the good stuff I have.]
【…】
A group of people had very stubborn ideas, but Lu Youyou could understand them.
Most people who have lived to this day, excluding a certain number of absolutely lucky ones, have experienced setbacks.
It could be betrayal by family and friends, or good intentions going unrewarded...
Therefore, they firmly believe that they only feel secure when they have good things in their hands.
If what they had were other valuable resources, Lu Youyou would praise them for being clever and prudent.
But the treasure chests they're holding can eventually be used to synthesize the dungeon core!
If she can't collect all the treasure chests within ten days, she won't be able to synthesize the final dungeon core, and the world will be destroyed by the power within the dungeon!
Lu Youyou took out her identity seal and asked Number One, "Can I tell everyone the truth? The power of everyone is greater than that of me alone."
Of course, my lord. If those people survive, they will all be your subjects in the future. Knowing this now or knowing it later makes no difference.
Lu Youyou muttered, "I thought you didn't want me to tell anyone, since the live stream screen goes black every time I talk to you."
That's because Number One needs to protect the adults' privacy. If the adults don't want privacy, Number One can turn off the blocking.
"No need, no need, this is fine."
After saying that, Lu Youyou opened the public chat and sent what she wanted to say.
[Lu Youyou: The previous master is dead. I am the new master. Give me all the treasure chests. I need to synthesize the dungeon core, otherwise the world will be destroyed by the power within the dungeon!]
The scrolling speed of the public chat paused for a few seconds, and then a larger discussion erupted.
[Player 78989: Is she crazy? She said the adult died? Even if she died, the adult wouldn't die. Otherwise, who opened the dungeon we participated in?]
[Pearl: Lu Youyou wouldn't lie to us, would she? Something felt off about the instance ever since I arrived; everything seemed strange. Better safe than sorry.]
[Player 8999: What a load of rubbish! It's just a crazy idea Lu Youyou came up with to trick everyone into giving her treasure chests. If you believe that, you're an idiot.]
[Pearl: But Lu Youyou has never lied to anyone in the public chat, right? Besides, everyone previously speculated that each dungeon would test different qualities of players, and this dungeon is testing teamwork.]
[Player 77882: Does unity mean giving away the good stuff we have? What would happen if I weren't united? Would we all really die? I don't believe it.]
[Pearl: Everyone, think carefully. Which dungeon we've participated in before had two distinct environmental changes right from the start? Something's not right with this dungeon!]
[Player 999992: Stop making things up. You're from Lu Youyou's guild, aren't you? We won't be fooled. Do you really think I haven't changed after being fooled so many times?]
[Pearl: I'm saying this one last time, haven't you noticed we always seem to miss each other? This dungeon tests your resources—get the items to Lu Youyou! Otherwise, none of us will be in good shape!]
[Gang Qiang: Tch, if you insist on entrusting things to someone else, why not give them to me? I could call myself the new master.]
……
Although viewers in the live stream cannot see what others are posting on the public screen, the streamer explains it to them, so they also know the details.
The reactions in the live chat and the public chat were similar: some people gloated over Lu Youyou's illness, some mocked her greed, and some believed her.
Lu Youyou ignored the negative comments.
She was busy replying to Pearl.
[Pearl: Have you really become a new adult?]
[Lu Youyou: Yes.]
[Pearl: I told you, you couldn't possibly be crazy, but now everyone's probably saying I am, nobody believes us at all.]
[Lu Youyou: It's alright, let's think of another way. We'll do our best and leave the rest to fate.]
[Pearl: I have three treasure chests here, you can have them all. Does what you said about exchanging them for exploding bananas still stand?]
[Lu Youyou: Of course, it's still one treasure chest for 10 photo-enhancing bananas.]
Pearl: Thank you.
Subsequently, Pearl sent a transaction request, which Lu Youyou accepted.
Pearls are like invisible switches, opening a box.
After the transaction was completed, the person who messaged her privately had their watch buzzing loudly.
Some people came for the exploding banana, while others came to confirm her adult status.
In short, she collected many treasure chests.
Lu Youyou put all the treasure chests into the decomposition device and then opened the crafting table to synthesize the dungeon core.
Once she finished working at the crafting table, she took out all the dungeon cores and placed them on the table together.
Sensing the presence of other instance cores, the central instance core began to attract and merge with the outer instance cores.
Finally, all the core copies on the table were merged.
Lu Youyou looked at the last remaining dungeon core, the number on it had already changed to 10.
If things really go as she predicted, she will need 90 more dungeon cores, which is equivalent to 900 treasure chests.
Lu Youyou sighed. The task ahead is arduous and the road is long.
She silently sat in the driver's seat and decided to drive forward.
It's good to find one more treasure chest.
After one hour.
The car slammed shut, startling Xiao Hei, who barked wildly in protest.
Lu Youyou: "Xiao Hei, stop calling, there's no one here, the car has a flat tire."
After saying that, Lu Youyou used the basic vehicle repair card.
She got a flat tire and didn't know how to repair it with adhesive, so she had to use a vehicle repair card.
The car looks brand new, and even the previously repaired holes are now smooth.
When Lu Youyou climbed onto the roof of the car, she saw that the adhesive tape she had placed there was still intact and in its original position.
"That's good. Even after using the repair card, these things weren't taken away as trash."
Lu Youyou got out of the car, returned to the driver's seat, and drove aimlessly.
"Master, do you feel cold?"
The crow fluttered its feathers, its voice trembling.
Lu Youyou, dressed in her all-purpose suit, was oblivious to the changes in her surroundings.
She lifted the curtains and looked outside.
Snowing.
However, the snowflakes are not pure white; they are interspersed with countless black dots.
It looks like insect eggs.
