Chapter 805: Result
Anna briefly looked at the item and smiled…
She was moved and couldn’t help but hug Shane… To be honest, she already received a lot of gifts from Shane, from the Alchemist Robe Set, the Alchemy Books and Skill Scrolls, Potions, Spirit Stones, Mana Crystals, and others.
Now, she was about to receive a Grandmaster Alchemy Kit!
Still, remembering how she was filled with sweat due to her work, she swiftly pushed him away…
After that brief hug, Shane smiled. He didn’t mind it at all.
“With this, your healing brews and antidotes will be twice as effective. And the cauldron… Cloud confirmed it can even refine third-tier alchemy recipes without losing purity.”
Anna’s fingers lingered over the instruments, she couldn’t help but celebrate with this.
“You really bought this… for me? Ahem… I mean, what about the others?”
Shane nodded firmly. “You’re the best physician I have. Of course, I have to take care of you. Consider it my thanks. And my trust. With this, you’ll save even more lives than before. As for the others, I also prepared a few things for them.”
For a moment, Anna said nothing. Then, she looked up at him with a warmth in her eyes.
“…You’re impossible, Shane.”
She shook her head lightly, but her lips curved into a smile that was both grateful and soft.
“Thank you. Truly.”
Shane chuckled… For some reason, his chest felt lighter than it had in days. “Then I’ll count on you, Anna. More than ever.”

Diana exhaled as the familiar rugged terrain of the Silver Mine Camp came into view.
Unlike Eclipse Domain’s towering walls and bustling districts, the Silver Mine Camp was raw, functional, and filled with life, with the sound of picks striking stone and carts rumbling across rails.
They do not have many tall buildings, but it was definitely a good place and had become comfortable to live in, compared to before.
As she made her walk to check the surroundings, the miners would stop when they saw her, bowing their heads briefly before returning to their work.
At this time, she wasn’t alone… Of course, Mew, her assistant and also the miner’s leader, was present…
He was no longer a thin man but was now considered a broad-shouldered man. His clothes had some dirt on them as he had just come out of the mines, but Diana didn’t mind it.
Mew was happy to see their Shelter Leader once again. He wasn’t sure what had happened in the Grand Auction Nexus but considering the points she had gathered, he knew that Diana must’ve acquire a lot of important items.
“I hope you’re doing well, Lady Diana. And with supplies, I hope?”
Diana smiled faintly and waved her hand, summoning crates and bundles from her inventory.
“More than supplies, Mew. I brought more tools. The Auction was worth it.”
One by one, the miners gathered as the items appeared… Most of them were things she purchased in the Market Bazaar…
There were Crystal-Pulse Drills… They were handheld tools powered by Spirit Stones, capable of shattering even hardened veins of ore in half the time of a normal pickaxe. This was obviously a must-have for them.
There were also Mystic Picks. They were enchanted picks that could slightly absorb and separate impurities, allowing for clean Spirit Stone harvesting.
There were also some Loadbear Harnesses, a lightweight, enchanted straps that multiplied a miner’s carrying capacity threefold without straining their bodies.
Lastly, there were Seismic Survey Orbs… They were very important since they were small spheres that, when activated, pulsed with spirit waves to map ore veins beneath the earth, ensuring no vein went undiscovered.
Mew’s eyes widened as he inspected the tools, his hand rested on one of the Mystic Picks…
“With these… mining Spirit Stones will take a fraction of the time. And silver production will triple, maybe more.”
Diana nodded firmly. “Good. Expand the tunnels, but don’t push the miners too hard. These tools are powerful, but overuse will drain the Spirit Stone batteries quickly. Rotate them carefully.”
“Yes, my lady.” Mew bowed and started giving orders to his crew with a loud voice that carried across the mine. The excitement among the miners could be felt as their morale soared instantly.

With that settled, Diana turned away and found a space for herself alone.
Now it was time to address her own gains.
She summoned a small chest that shimmered faintly with golden and silver light…
It was the Platinum Treasure Chest she had earned.
“Let’s see what fortune has for me…” she whispered before pressing her hand to the seal…
The chest cracked open, releasing a soft hum of power.
Just like that, she received the system’s message.
[ You have opened a Platinum Treasure Chest ]
[ You have received a Silvermoon Longbow x1 ]
[ You have received a Quiver of Celestial Arrows x5 ]
[ You have received a Revival Injector x5 ]
[ You have received a Guardian’s Sigil x5 ]
[ You have received a Spirit Power Core x5 ]
[ You have received a Skill Fusion Talisman x5 ]
[ You have received a Supersteel Ingot x50 ]
[ You have received a Phantom Quartz x10 ]
[ All items have been transferred to your Inventory. ]
Diana’s eyes lit up as she scanned through the items.
A Silvermoon Longbow immediately caught her attention…
After all, she had a few elves in this Shelter and she wanted to give them something… Well, they could decide who will get the bow and arrows, but she would certainly add a few more gifts.
“So this is Platinum Treasure Chest… This is so cool.” Diana muttered.
The utility items were no less valuable. There were Revival Injectors to save lives, Guardian’s Sigils to shield squads in emergencies, Skill Fusion Talismans to evolve abilities, and raw materials like Supersteel Ingots and Phantom Quartz.
“Not bad. Not bad at all.”
Diana was satisfied as she hoped that her Recruitment Stones would also bring a good result.
For the Silver Mine Camp, this was a turning point. Stronger defenses, faster resource production, and now… she herself had grown stronger as well.
