Prerequisites

Before you can talk to Vlast, you must complete certain quests in Novokitezhgrad. The source does not specify which quests, but they are part of the region's storyline. Not stated in official materials: the exact quest names or requirements.

• Complete the relevant Novokitezhgrad quests.
• Return to Vlast to initiate the puzzle.

Estimated time: 10–15 minutes after quests are done. No currency cost.

Step-by-Step Solution

When Vlast presents his game, respond with the following sequence:

After the final answer, a Luxurious Chest will spawn. Open it to claim your rewards.

Why "Any" Works

The second choice always results in a Large Geo Slime regardless of your selection. This is a fixed outcome, so you can pick any option without affecting the puzzle's success.

Troubleshooting

• Vlast won't talk to me: You haven't completed the required Novokitezhgrad quests. Progress the region's story until he becomes interactive.
• Chest doesn't appear: Double-check your answer sequence. The correct order is Middle, Any, Right, Middle.
• Already solved: If you've already claimed the chest, the puzzle cannot be repeated.

FAQ

Q: Is there a time limit?
No, the puzzle is available permanently after prerequisites.

Q: Can I fail the puzzle?
No, wrong answers simply reset the sequence. You can try again immediately.

Q: What's in the Luxurious Chest?
Not stated in official materials. Rewards are typical for a Luxurious Chest (Primogems, Mora, artifacts, etc.).

Next Steps
