Chapter 353: Chapter 332: Four Consecutive Draws from the Treasure Chest_1

Three Bronze Treasure Chests, and a Silver Treasure Chest.

With tasks that span a long timeline and present a relative high difficulty, the rewards are naturally substantial.

But I wonder what good stuff would come out this time?

Given Lin Yuan’s nature, he would probably wait for a lucky moment to claim his rewards.

But as mentioned earlier, Lin Yuan’s mindset has changed a bit.

Maybe it’s a good idea to open the chests while they’re still hot!

If they sit too long, the chests might cool off.

So no more hesitation, let’s just get straight to it.

With this thought in mind, Lin Yuan spoke, “Open a Bronze Treasure Chest first.”

System: [Congratulations Host for getting the song “Nervous”.]

The song “Nervous”?

Well, this song is good.

This reward is quite generous considering it comes from a Bronze Treasure Chest.

Without thinking too much,

Lin Yuan proceeded to open the second chest.

System: [Congratulations Host for obtaining a basic level in all musical instruments!]

At this instant, Lin Yuan felt as if countless pieces of musical instrument knowledge were flooding into his brain.

Guitar, violin, guzheng, guqin, erhu…

He knew a bit of each.

Well, alright.

Indeed, only a tiny bit, all at a basic level of understanding.

In other words, Lin Yuan now understood all the musical instruments but wasn’t a master in any of them. He was at the stage of just being able to play.

However, this reward was very practical for someone like Lin Yuan, who liked to compose his own music!

There are so many musical instruments.

If it wasn’t for the system’s reward, it would be unimaginable how long it would take Lin Yuan to learn about them one by one!

So, Lin Yuan would not be dissatisfied just because the award for musical proficiency was basic.

On the contrary.

Lin Yuan thought that if a Bronze Treasure Chest could come out with such a reward, then its value was already quite high!

Feeling lucky.

Lin Yuan decided to take a gamble on a triple draw!

He proclaimed loudly, “Open another Bronze Treasure Chest.”

Lin Yuan was already feeling the allure of opening chests consecutively. It was as exciting as lottery draws!

“Ding dong!”

The system presented the reward from the third Bronze Treasure Chest: [Congratulations Host for obtaining professional level calligraphy skills!]

Whosh.

With the opening of the third chest, Lin Yuan’s brain was flooded with countless pieces of calligraphy knowledge,

Including brush calligraphy, pen calligraphy, and so on.

“Calligraphy skills?”

This time, Lin Yuan was more surprised than excited.

Because Lin Yuan’s time is precious now, and he can’t do as he did before, teaching painting to a wide range of students to earn money.

The same goes for calligraphy.

Even if he could teach professional level calligraphy, he wouldn’t actually go out to some university to impart calligraphy skills. So the only advantage of this reward is…

Perhaps in future when signing books for readers, he won’t be laughed at by the crowd?

See who would dare to say his handwriting is a child’s writing.

No, that’s not right.

Since he has acquired calligraphy skills, why not hold a signing event now? It might even boost the sales of “Murder on the Orient Express.”

Lin Yuan was pumped.

Lin Yuan, who probably cares a lot about his handwriting being laughed at by the group, immediately contacted Jin Mu and asked him to bring over fifty books.

He was going to hold a book signing event again, to vindicate his handwriting!

“Okay.”

Jin Mu agreed.

After hanging up the phone, Lin Yuan looked at the last chest of the system.

This chest was at the Silver level!

After opening three Bronze Treasure chests consecutively, Lin Yuan was now really tempted to open the Silver Treasure Chest.

Should he open it now?

Hit a quadruple draw now?

After gritting his teeth, Lin Yuan said, “Open the Silver Treasure Chest!”

“Ding dong.”

It was the fourth prompt from the system: [Congratulations Host for obtaining Hercule Poirot Complete Series!]

With the system prompt, Lin Yuan was stunned.

So items from hot-opening chests could be this amazing?

The song, basic instrument skills, professional level calligraphy, all are good.

But all these rewards from the Bronze Treasure Chests added together couldn’t compare to the reward from the Silver Treasure Chest!

This was the complete series of Hercule Poirot!

You should know that for every custom mystery novel Lin Yuan had written before, each one required a reward expenditure!

But this time he was incredibly lucky and directly got the complete series of Hercule Poirot mystery novels!

This alone covered dozens of Agatha Christie’s mysteries.

It even included timeless masterpieces like “Death on the Nile”!

What a windfall!

Indeed worthy of being a Silver Treasure Chest.

Lin Yuan was very satisfied inside.

Last time, a “Death Note” came out of the Silver Treasure Chest, which was given to Shadow.

But in terms of value, compared to the items from other Silver Treasure Chests, “Death Note” was completely blown out by the Hercule Poirot Series this time!

There was no helping it.

The Hercule Poirot Series had too many novels.

For example, the mentioned “Death on the Nile”.

The value of this novel was almost on par with “Murder on the Orient Express”.

There are also “The ABC Murders”, “Evil Under the Sun”, etc.

These novels, when singled out, were no match for “Murder on the Orient Express”, but combined as a series, they were formidable!

In Agatha Christie’s lifetime, she mainly published around 80 detective works.

There are 38 in which Hercule Poirot is the main character!

In other words.

With the Hercule Poirot Complete Series, Lin Yuan had effectively obtained half of Agatha Christie’s works!

Of course.

The series doesn’t include “And Then There Were None”, because unfortunately, our Hercule Poirot didn’t take part in that story.

But Lin Yuan doesn’t ask for such generosity.

After all, excluding the already published “Murder on the Orient Express” and “The Murder of Roger Ackroyd”, Lin Yuan had received throughoutly thirty-six of Agatha Christie’s detective works in one shot!

What a profit!

Lin Yuan had already started planning the release time of his “Hercule Poirot Complete Series”.

He even considered the possibility of releasing the entire series directly.

While Lin Yuan was thinking, Jin Mu had someone bring in fifty unpublished copies of “Murder on the Orient Express” into the studio.

“Begin signing.”

Lin Yuan took out the pen on the table.

“Chu Kuang.”

The two words, full of vigor and resembling cursive calligraphy, appeared on the first page of the novel, right under the blank space of Carter’s preface.

After signing, he handed the book to Jin Mu for re-packaging.

Jin Mu took the book, instinctively inspecting it while preparing himself to see the boss’s infamous primary-school-student handwriting.

As everyone knows, boss’s handwriting… was ugly, widely acknowledged to be that of a primary school student’s.

But when Jin Mu saw Lin Yuan’s signature this time, his eyes suddenly widened!

The signature was bold and flowing, with a strong sense of artistry and a forceful presence!

The vigorous and round strokes of the pen and ink lines were winding; the structure and layout of the characters were adventurous, varied and continuous!

Looking back.

He saw Lin Yuan, pen in hand, deftly writing his pen name. With short lines cutting off abruptly, and long lines flowing smoothly, where was the primary school student handwriting from before?

Jin Mu was dumbfounded.

He suddenly felt very tired inside.

It turns out that the crap that Lin Yuan was writing before was just to mess with us?

He had bought practice books for the boss, but there’s no guarantee that the teacher who made those books would have a higher writing level than the boss, right?
