David's choice wasn't arbitrary but one filled with careful consideration.
He didn't choose Jack's Crystallisation of life because it looked worthless to him.
As for why he didn't choose the other options, it wasn't because he wasn't interested in them; this time, he wanted to test out the third option.
Immediately after David clicked on the option, the space in front of him started to vibrate like glass under high pressure.
Bang!
A few seconds later, the force seemed to have reached its peak, and a floating object wrapped in otherworldly energy appeared in front of David.
It floated silently in front of him.
David reached out his hands towards the object, and instantly the light wrapping around it disappeared, revealing a tree branch in his hands.
He frowned and looked at the branch in confusion.
He was expecting a grand-looking treasure, not this weak-ass branch.
