CHAPTER 150: CHAPTER 150: BLIND BOX AND GOLDEN EQUIPMENT

Kane, along with his teammates, slowly entered the tunnel.

Inside the tunnel, there was a round space carved out, with a giant skeleton head standing in the center.

The eye sockets of the skeleton head were decorated into a window and a door, with a platform extending outward from the sockets.

A plaque, written in an unknown language, hung on the nose, with warm light emanating from within the skeleton head.

The wide-open mouth of the skeleton head served as the entrance of the shop.

Just as Kane and his companions reached the entrance and were about to knock on the door.

A crisp bell rang, and the door swung open automatically, as if inviting Kane and his companions to enter.

Kane and his team entered the shop.

The shop was illuminated warmly by orange-yellow light, with various items piled up on both sides, and a wooden counter in the center.

Behind the counter stood a skeleton dressed in a black suit, wearing a top hat, and holding a Civilization Staff, which was adorned with a golden skull head encrusted with diamonds.

The skeleton raised his head to look at Kane and his team, with a monocle linked by a fine golden chain that stretched to the pocket on his chest.

"It’s been a long time since guests visited my shop. How did you find your way here?"

He adjusted the monocle and asked Kane and the team.

His voice was like that of an elegant middle-aged nobleman, magnetic in tone.

Before Kane and his team could answer, he suddenly said, "Oh, I see one of you is injured; that’s not good."

He then lifted the Civilization Staff and waved it towards Longbei.

Seeing the skeleton boss’s action, Kane and his team instantly drew their weapons and became alert.

Seeing the alertness of Kane and others, the skeleton boss chuckled, "No need to worry, esteemed guests, I mean no malice, and weapons are not allowed in my shop."

"I’m alright, no, I’m perfectly fine," Longbei shook his bandaged arm, unraveling the bandage directly.

His arm was now perfectly healed and able to move freely.

Seeing Longbei unharmed with his arm healed, the team put away their weapons.

Kane promptly apologized to the skeleton boss, "Sorry, boss, we got a bit excited."

"Oh, no worries, I’m not the kind to hold a grudge," the skeleton boss shook his head and smiled.

Kane held up the card in his hand, signaling to the boss, "It was this card that led us here."

The skeleton boss steadied his monocle and leaned forward slightly, seeming very nearsighted.

"Ah, it’s one of the cards I sent out years ago. I didn’t expect someone still had one. How nostalgic.

Since we are so destiny-bound, come over and see what you need, but remember, you can only purchase two items in total, so choose wisely."

The skeleton boss waved his Civilization Staff over the counter, and five boxes with question marks appeared on the surface.

Kane and the team approached, gazing at the five boxes with question marks on the counter, puzzled.

"The value of each item in the box is different; you can’t see them without opening it. It’s a new selling method I just learned recently. What do you think, interesting isn’t it?" The skeleton boss seemed very proud of his selling method, hinting pride in his tone.

Burn the one who taught you this selling method, thank you.

Staring at the five boxes on the counter, Kane asked, "How much does one box cost?"

The boss extended two skeletal fingers: "20 Mist Coins."

Upon hearing this price, Kane turned to his teammates, for this type of decision required a team consensus.

"Buying now might bring temporary regret, but not buying now will surely lead to lifelong regret."

Longbei murmured softly.

How insightful.

Listening to Longbei, the team silently agreed in their minds.

"Then let’s buy."

Saying this, Kane prepared to choose two boxes.

At this moment, Lirulu flew to Kane’s shoulder, covered her mouth, and whispered to Kane’s ear, "Take the second one from the left."

Then she flew away, not forgetting to turn back and wink at Kane.

The skeleton boss couldn’t help but glance at Lirulu.

Kane turned around and picked up the second box from the left, then pondered and picked up the first box from the right.

Afterward, he took 40 Mist Coins from their communal Space Equipment to pay the boss, nearly emptying their shared funds.

The skeleton boss accepted the Mist Coins, took off his top hat, and bowed, saying, "Thanks for visiting."

Kane placed the boxes into the Space Equipment, planning to open them after leaving.

"Young man, what’s your name?"

"Kane, Kane Lafray."

The skeleton boss nodded, then extended his hand to Kane, beckoning with a finger, causing the card in Kane’s hand to fly over, "I have high hopes for you, young man. Come, let me upgrade the card in your hand a bit. Hope you’ll become a regular patron."

He caught the card and tapped it with the Civilization Staff, enveloping it in golden light.

He handed the newly forged card out.

Kane received the card drifting over.

[Description: The mysterious Skeleton Mage T. Edwards, who roams various Undead Dungeons, is a Mist Lord and seems to have taken quite a liking to you. Whenever you enter a dungeon with undead elements, you can make a choice, and upon agreeing, you’ll directly enter his secret shop.]

This actually became a piece of Golden Equipment, the first golden-level equipment Kane possesses.

Although it doesn’t bring him any tangible enhancement.

However, Kane was very intrigued by a word in the description: Mist Lord, the first time he had seen this word, seeming to represent a certain position or status.

"Then I shall take my leave. Looking forward to our next encounter."

After saying this, the skeleton boss waved his Civilization Staff.

The entire skeleton-head-shaped shop vanished without a trace, leaving Kane and his team standing there.

With the shop’s light source gone, the whole space plunged into darkness.

"Shine bright"

Lirulu picked up her Magic Staff and waved it.

A glowing orb appeared above their heads, illuminating the surroundings.
