Chapter 251: Chapter 251

Upon opening the treasure chest, it was another hidden mission this time. Du You was quite lucky. The number of white crystal coins in the chest was substantial, almost reaching a thousand, similar to the completed Griffin egg task.

With the additional light balls yet to be opened, Du You was sure he’d have enough white crystal coins in hand for the creation of a new summoned beast.

As the white crystal coins vanished, leaving the treasure chest behind, Du You grinned. "I wonder what other goodies this box holds. Usually, the rewards found in treasure chests are pretty practical." Du You had noticed this himself.

Reaching in, he pulled out a notebook.

Breeding Notes of the Quicksand Priest: Sand Snake Breeding, Sand Sculpture Breeding.

Looking at the notebook in his hand, Du You felt a strange sensation. He hadn’t expected to find this.

Choosing to study it later, Du You opened the notebook and started reading the text. At a glance, he realised it consisted of records and various recipes for breeding sand sculptures and sand snakes.

These notes were extremely important to the Sandpeople, explaining why they could breed Sand Sculpture Knights. It seemed they had used this method.

But what use were these notes to him? He had no intention of breeding sand sculptures or sand snakes. It would be a waste. Yet, he realized it could be useful to larger forces.

Whether sand sculptures and sand snakes are unique to this world, if other worlds have them or could use them, remains to be seen. Even if he took these notes back, doubtfully, they wouldn’t command much price.

He had acquired a crucial document with a potentially high value, yet it was practically useless and difficult to sell. It seemed his luck wasn’t as good today as he thought. He scratched his head, feeling a bit helpless.

Suddenly, Du You had a realization. "Of course, who said loot can only be used by me? I can give it to the natives!" Du You remembered the situations he had come across in the Giant Beast world.

The loot he obtained could actually be used by the natives. After a while, it would lose its Law Formalization properties, probably because the origin power on it was re-absorbed by the world. But for the natives, there would be no difference.

This breeding recipe might be useless to him, but for the people of this world, it was invaluable.

With these recipes, it doesn’t matter if White Stone City is planning to breed these creatures or specifically find ways to counteract sand sculptures and sand snakes - either way, it would be very significant.

Both the sand sculptures and sand snakes are unique creatures adapted to survive in the desert. If used correctly, they could be extremely beneficial.

"Sand Sculpture Knights may not be of much importance because now there are Griffins, and Griffins are much stronger than them. But to have them as an option isn’t bad. However, sand snakes are different. They can dig underground, and their value against Sandpeople, who can also go underground, is self-evident. Trading this for military merits seems like a good deal."

The somewhat disheartened Du You slowly returned to his cheerful demeanor.

No matter what it is, if used correctly, it has value.

As the treasure chest disappeared, Du You started opening one after another of the spheres left behind by the Sandpeople. As each sphere was opened, his stockpile of white crystal coins began to replenish.

A variety of miscellaneous items came into sight, many of which were weapons, like the swords and bows of Sandpeople, and some other objects. He kept the valuable ones and discarded those of little value.

Even though Du You’s personal space was considerable, some items were still too large and occupied too much space. He would be staying in White Stone City for a long time and expected to collect numerous items.

And crucially, Du You had plenty of white crystal coins for trading, and did not need to quibble over everything.

What made Du You happy was the number of Quicksand Cloaks that surfaced. Including the previous ones, he now had as many as twelve Quicksand Cloaks.

If he continued collecting, perhaps he could mass-produce the Quicksand Cloak.

If sold individually, it might not fetch a high price. But if sold in bulk, it could equip a large army, the value of which could not be described by the price of a single piece.

As long as he hunted Quicksand soldiers, he could continue to collect Quicksand Cloaks.

After opening all the spheres, all that was left was the sphere left by the Quicksand Priest.

With anticipation, Du You opened it, and as expected, it was filled with white crystal coins. Though the Quicksand Priest was a formidable opponent, being a level 10 entity, he couldn’t drop red crystal coins.

However, the next item left Du You somewhat perplexed, as it turned out to be a potion recipe.

Quicksand Spring (Potion Recipe): A potion unique to Sandpeople, it greatly restores vigor, mildly heals wounds, and alleviates dehydration symptoms.

Du You hadn’t anticipated that it would be a potion recipe. This was the first time he had gotten hold of such a thing. But the problem was, he couldn’t learn it.

Looking at the prompt on the panel, Du You knew that to use a potion recipe, one either needed to be a pharmacist or have special buildings that could manufacture potions - both of which he lacked. It was no use.

Should he consider selling it? He was not strapped for cash, and he realized how valuable this recipe was.

This was a comprehensive recipe. Not only could it restore vitality and heal wounds, it could also treat dehydration. In other places, it might not be of much use, but in the desert, it was a divine artifact.

If he sold this recipe to White Stone City, it would be worth a fortune. ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ 𝕟𝕠𝕧𝕖𝕝~𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖~𝕟𝕖𝕥

However, Du You was hesitant to part with it. After some thought, he decided to keep it for now: "I’m going to establish my own territory here in the future. I wonder if I can use it there. If I can, I would prefer to keep this recipe."

A territory with no specialties cannot flourish. However, if used properly, this potion could become a unique product. Although Du You wasn’t sure if this potion was common among Sandpeople, it was a rarity in White Stone City. Here, water was always precious.

Moreover, the medication for heat stroke and dehydration was always expensive. He had just not paid attention to it because he didn’t need it. Since the potion recipe wouldn’t depreciate in his hands, there was no need to rush into selling it.

"That’s that, I’ll keep it for now."
