75: Emergency response in progress!

"Just stare at the treasure chest to use the Cheat..."

Han Fei pondered carefully.

"It seems I need to find some time to visit a treasure chest exhibition."

Many large cities in Dragon Country hold treasure chest exhibitions every so often, allowing the public to view various treasure chests.

Of course, the treasure chests at the exhibition can only be observed from a distance and not touched.

However, the distance between the audience isolation zone and the display treasure chests usually does not exceed 5 meters, which is perfect for Han Fei to use his Cheat.

Han Fei quickly took out his phone and searched online for upcoming exhibitions near Tianhe City.

"The next one is in a week. I'll have to ask Xiao Shuai to help me buy a ticket for the exhibition."

Tickets for treasure chest exhibitions usually sell out several months before the exhibition begins.

If Han Fei wanted to buy one now, he could only ask Xiao Shuai for help.

With the Special Guard Team's capabilities, purchasing an exhibition ticket at the last minute would not be a problem.

Afterward, Han Fei refocused his attention on the Cheat.

The special enhancement of the Cheat, in addition to changing the conditions for its use, also gave it an additional effect.

Each time the Cheat is used, there is a one-in-ten-thousand chance to replicate a Random Drop item.

This effect is not bad, but unfortunately, the probability is low, making it difficult to trigger.

Then, there was the effect of the gold special enhancement: if the Cheat is used on a gold treasure chest, the probability of obtaining rare items increases by a hundredfold, and the probability of super rare items increases by a thousandfold.

This probability doubling effect was what Han Fei desired most.

Without probability doubling, it would be almost impossible to open rare items.

Finally, the daily usage limit doubled from three times to six times.

This was the effect of the Cheat's enhancement, essentially doubling its effectiveness.

After confirming the Cheat's effects, Han Fei stared at the magic cake treasure chest and immediately used the Cheat.

The next moment, a mouth-watering sweet aroma filled the air, and an exquisite shortbread quietly appeared in his palm.

"Guaranteed item, my luck is just average."

A helpless smile curled at Han Fei's lips, and he immediately tried again.

What appeared in his hand next was a crystal-clear peppermint candy, exuding a fresh aroma.

Following his third attempt, Han Fei's palm gently vibrated, and what followed was a cup of milky-yellow milk tea, exuding a rich blend of milk and tea aromas.

"Without a hundredfold drop rate, getting a magic cake is very difficult."

Han Fei did not continue trying, but instead used the Cheat on the gold nature treasure chest.

The moment the Cheat was used, a fresh aura swept out from his hand, and then a drop of spring rain, carefully wrapped in tender green leaves, appeared in his palm.

He then used the Cheat again.

Immediately, a light-as-air autumn moon leaf, shimmering with a soft, pale yellow glow, floated on his palm.

The last item was a seemingly ordinary spring sprout, yet it contained infinite vitality.

The tender sprout was as small as a fingertip, with smooth, delicate skin, like a seed of life about to break through the soil.

"My luck is very ordinary."

Han Fei sighed softly, his gaze sweeping over the items he had obtained.

These 6 items were all regular drops from the treasure chest; although precious, they were not worth mentioning compared to the grand prizes.

"It seems I need to find a way to get some things that can improve luck."

The first thing he thought of was the white god clear tea that Princess Luna had brought out last time.

white god clear tea has a very high bonus to luck, and many legendary figures in history have relied on it to turn their fortunes around.

Countless lucky individuals have obtained super rare items from treasure chests by relying on the luck boost from white god clear tea.

"If I can keep taking white god clear tea, the acquisition of magic cakes will stabilize!"

Many rare treasure chests have a chance to drop items that can increase luck, and Han Fei planned to try his luck at the exhibition later.

"If I can get some white god clear tea before then, that would be great."

Using white god clear tea to boost luck at the exhibition would greatly increase the probability of obtaining items that improve good fortune.

The problem then arose.

"How can I get white god clear tea?"

Han Fei's hand unconsciously stroked his chin, his eyes deep, as he fell into contemplation.

The fastest way was undoubtedly to directly ask Princess Luna.

But as soon as the thought arose, a hint of hesitation welled up in Han Fei's heart.

He couldn't be sure if Princess Luna would tamper with the white god clear tea.

After all, she was the noble princess of the Radiance Kingdom; the abilities she possessed and the strange items in her hands must be countless, far beyond what ordinary people could imagine.

Just like the previous Affection Detection, if he hadn't replicated this magic through Forbidden Magic, Han Fei wouldn't have noticed it at all.

Han Fei had no idea if Princess Luna had other similar methods to Affection Detection, so he naturally couldn't prepare a countermeasure.

"But if I don't ask her, should I ask the Special Guard Team?"

The Special Guard Team signed a contract, so they shouldn't do anything to him.

However, they couldn't even produce a gold treasure chest, so asking them for an item that could increase luck was probably impossible.

"Princess Luna won't work, and the Special Guard Team probably won't either. In that case... I can only ask Adjutant Yang."

But the problem was, if Adjutant Yang was willing to help, what could he offer in exchange?

Adjutant Yang had just given him a gold nature treasure chest, and he hadn't given anything in return. Now, to ask for something that could increase luck, Han Fei genuinely felt awkward.

"I wonder if the items I opened from the treasure chests can be exchanged with him."

After a moment of hesitation, Han Fei decided to ask Adjutant Yang's son first.

He sent a message to the other party, "Guodong, I'd like to ask if you have any channels to find items that can increase luck?"

The other party quickly replied, "Although there are some in the military's inventory, it's very difficult to get them out. I can only take you to some auctions to try your luck."

"Auctions?"

Han Fei's brows furrowed slightly as he carefully sorted through some hidden information about this world in his mind.

In this world, many powerful figures standing at the Peak of global power and wealth held unknown secrets and desires.

And high-end auctions were their stage for exchanging secrets.

The items circulating at those secret auctions were all rare treasures, hard to find in the world, each enough to move one's heart and spirit.

One of Han Fei's purposes in coming to Tianhe City was to participate in such high-end auctions, hoping to obtain rare treasure chests.

So he sent a text message to Second Lieutenant Yang Guodong, asking, "When is the next auction, and can you take me?"

"Wait a moment, I'll ask."

Time quietly slipped away in waiting.

About ten minutes later, Second Lieutenant Yang Guodong sent a reply.

"The next one is in two days, at the 33rd floor of Muhao Building. I'll take you there then."

"Muhao Building... it's actually there."

Han Fei murmured softly, his heart stirring.

Muhao Building was not only one of Tianhe City's landmarks but also a symbol of luxury and power.

Its interior decoration was extremely magnificent, every inch of space exuding an aura of money and status.

The building stood in the city's core, which was not only a center for business exchanges but also an arena for many top enterprises, surrounded by luxurious commercial buildings as dazzling as stars.

Han Fei was not unfamiliar with the place; the original owner had more than once gazed at that behemoth from the dormitory, and each time his eyes met it, he couldn't help but feel awe... After arranging with Second Lieutenant Yang Guodong, Han Fei began to Cultivate.

Although Forbidden Magic had already been introduced, Han Fei knew that in the vast sea of Forbidden Magic knowledge, what he had mastered was merely a tiny drop of water.

To advance in that vast sea of knowledge, he had to invest a great deal of time and energy, constantly improving his understanding of Forbidden Magic.

The newly acquired Ice Palm also needed a bit of practice; if this palm technique was mastered, it could greatly enhance Han Fei's combat power.

At the same time, the Cleaning Superpower also required time to Cultivate; with 5 Superpower Enhancement Potions in hand, the Cultivation Bottleneck could be completely ignored, and Han Fei's subsequent Cultivation progress could be described as smooth sailing.

Then there was the culinary aspect; Han Fei had replicated many fragmented culinary experiences at the God of Cookery Competition.

Those fragmented experiences were like scattered stars, spread across various corners of his mind.

He had to spend time carefully weaving those scattered starlight into his own brilliant galaxy; only then could he achieve thorough comprehension and elevate his culinary skills to a new Realm.

Time slowly passed during Cultivation.

Night quietly fell, and moonlight, like water, softly spilled onto the room's floor through the window.

A feeling of hunger inadvertently assailed Han Fei, who was in the midst of Cultivation.

"It's already this late."

Han Fei completely lost track of time while Cultivating.

He then stopped Cultivating and took out the braised prawns in oil and the dry pot dish from the insulated box.

Although the light emitted by these two dishes was not as bright as the Ice Palm Fried Lotus, they were certainly magical dishes, and consuming them would have special effects.

Han Fei first tasted a bite of the dry pot dish, and immediately, a surging torrent of information poured into the depths of his consciousness.

Countless clever cooking techniques, secret seasoning methods, and so on, flowed like streams into a vast river, instantly enhancing Han Fei's understanding and skills in cooking.

This torrent of information also contained relevant details about a recipe called "Thousand Phoenix Spicy Braised Beef Dry Pot."

This was a lost two-star gourmet item; if its completion reached over seventy percent, there was a chance it could transform into a bronze gourmet treasure chest.

Han Fei then tasted the braised prawns in oil.

The stimulating spiciness permeated his entire body like a fine stream, exciting every nerve, causing his whole body to involuntarily heat up, as if an invisible force was surging within him.

Immediately afterward, his skin even began to emit faint flames, yet he felt no discomfort whatsoever.

"Could it be... my body has developed resistance to flames?"

Han Fei was secretly surprised.

He had seen someone online say that after eating certain foods, their skin would emit flames, and then their body would gain resistance to fire and heat.

Han Fei was unsure about this.

To verify his guess, he walked to the cabinet, rummaging through a pile of clutter to find a lighter.

With a gentle press of his thumb, a blue flame leaped out.

He then carefully brought his right index finger close to the flickering flame.

The flame licked his fingertip, and Han Fei focused on feeling the subtle interaction between his skin and the high temperature.

"It doesn't feel as hot anymore."

The lighter's flame had to continuously burn the same spot on his finger for 30 seconds before he vaguely felt a faint warmth.

He then gently moved his finger away, and the skin scorched by the flame was completely unharmed.

"One dish improved my resistance to flames, and another improved my cooking skills. Both are pretty good."

After satisfyingly finishing these two dishes, Han Fei continued his Cultivation.

Time flew like a white steed passing a crevice.

As the first ray of dawn pierced through the curtains, announcing the arrival of a new day, Han Fei had just finished his morning Cultivation.

He walked into the bathroom, where warm water rinsed his tired body, washing away a night's sweat and fatigue.

Just as he was wiping his wet hair, preparing to enjoy a moment of tranquility, his phone suddenly rang.

"Mr. Han, urgent mission!"

On the other end of the line, Xiao Shuai's voice was a bit urgent, revealing the seriousness of the situation.

Han Fei's hand, which was wiping his head with a towel, paused, and he immediately asked, "Another fully formed Garbage Monster has appeared?"

"Yes, this time it's at another landfill!" Xiao Shuai said urgently.

Han Fei quickly changed his clothes, and then Black Pupil instantly teleported him to a helicopter.

Inside the cabin sat only one City Guard soldier in military uniform.

His eyes were sharp, his face resolute, and the medals on his chest silently recounted past merits.

After Han Fei fastened his seatbelt, he looked at him and asked, "How come another Garbage Monster appeared so quickly?"

The soldier's brows furrowed even tighter at the question; this problem also troubled him, "We don't know either. That monster, like the previous one, just appeared out of nowhere."

He then handed his tactical tablet computer to Han Fei.

"This is the real-time footage transmitted from there."

Han Fei took the heavy tablet, and the screen displayed a shocking scene.

In the landfill, where discarded items were piled up like mountains, a behemoth stood prominently.

A super giant Garbage Monster over fifty meters tall!

This monstrous beast was frantically devouring all the surrounding garbage with an almost frenzied posture.

Its abyss-like mouth seemed to connect to another space, forever insatiable.

Garbage, like a surging tide, continuously poured into the monster's gigantic maw.

The mountain-like piles of garbage rapidly shrank at an astonishing speed, while the giant Garbage Monster's body slowly expanded, grew larger, and taller.

On the giant Garbage Monster's body, dazzling light occasionally flashed, accompanied by deafening explosions.

That was the City Guard's artillery fire.

Although the shelling was dense, for this gigantic monster, it was not even a nuisance, only very slightly slowing down its rate of consumption.

From a distance, it even gave one a misconception.

The monster seemed to be growing and transforming amidst the artillery fire.

Each barrage was a baptism for it, a catalyst for its metamorphosis.
