Heavenly Calamity

Chapter 13: Underwater treasure chest

Views:

The temperature difference here is very large. Night has not yet fallen, but it is already evening, but the temperature has already dropped.

As the saying goes, when the house leaks, it rains all night. A heavy rain came unexpectedly. The rain poured down from the sky, and the sound of rain hitting the leaves filled my ears. It has to be said that cold and damp are a deadly combination that is unbearable. The cruel and savage primitive forest, the endless emergence of ferocious monsters, the harsh and desperate environment, and the human psychology are gradually collapsing. This was the first day into the Blood Jungle. The dangers encountered were far beyond the limit of endurance.

Leng Yun's body was getting darker and darker. She was cold, hungry and scared. She had never been as helpless as she was now.

"Rain will wash away the traces of breath and prevent monsters from finding us, so rain is a good thing." Zhang Mu wiped the rain off his face, took out a few chocolates and a box of compressed biscuits from his backpack and handed them to Leng Yun, "Eat Bar."

Leng Yun felt a little more excited. Fortunately, the mysterious and powerful man in front of her was by her side. Otherwise, she would have known how to face everything, "Thank you for saving me."

Zhang Mu smiled slightly: "We are companions."

Leng Yun was a little moved and nodded vigorously.

Suddenly, her face turned slightly red, a little unnaturally.

Zhang Mu asked doubtfully: "What?"

Leng Yun lowered her head and said in a voice like a mosquito: "I... I want to pee."

"This... can only be solved on the tree." Zhang Mu shook his head helplessly and said, "Hurry up, I will send food to Qin Min and the others."

Leng Yun felt a little embarrassed: "Thank you."

Not far away, Fatty and Sun Bing were on the same tree. Fatty's backpack was thrown into the water. Sun Bing's backpack was torn during the process of traveling through the jungle. The food was almost the same, but it was enough for two people to have a meal. Qin Min stayed with two strangers because her backpack was abandoned in the woods and there was no food at all. Fortunately, the two trees were not far apart. Zhang Mu tied his backpack to the tree vine and swung to the opposite side to deliver food to him.

When Zhang Mu came back, Leng Yun had finished solving the problem and her face was slightly red. Zhang Mu didn't feel any embarrassment. After a long day of running around, he was already hungry. He took out a few pieces of chocolate and ham sausage from his bag to satisfy his hunger.

When Leng Yun saw that less than half of her backpack was missing, she frowned and said, "We don't have much food, we can only last for two or three days."

"Yes, food is a problem." Zhang Mu ate two pieces of chocolate, then stared at the rippled water and said, "The fat man's backpack sank at the bottom of the water. There is a lot of food in it. I will go and fish it up. "

Leng Yun was very surprised and said quickly: "But the water is full of monsters!"

Zhang Mu said confidently: "Don't worry, the fish will drive away the nearby monsters. In addition, the rain will also distract them, making it difficult for them to find me."

Everyone wants to stay away from the water, but Zhang Mu wants to dive into the water. Is this courage or madness

Leng Yun took a deep look at Zhang Mu. He looked a little embarrassed because he was soaked all over. But on his ordinary and delicate face, a pair of dark eyes, full of wisdom and calmness, were like a bottomless cold pool, which made people uncomfortable. Consciously sink into it. Leng Yun felt her heart beating twice, but she could no longer say the words she wanted to stop.

"You stay in the tree." Zhang Mu grabbed a few vines and tried them one after another before finding the one that felt the strongest. It is about two thumbs thick and has a very rough surface, making it difficult to slip off.

Leng Yun said: "Be careful!"

Zhang Mu took a deep breath, jumped hard, and separated his feet from the tree. His figure drew a beautiful arc in the rain, and let go and fell into the water.

The underwater world is very peaceful, and the senses seem to be deprived. The water was cold and murky, making it impossible to distinguish anything too far away. The river bottom is covered with broken trees and many aquatic plants grow there. Zhang Mu knew the location where he fell into the water extremely accurately. Soon he found his backpack, swam to the bottom, picked up the backpack, and was about to leave. Suddenly, something in the water caught my attention.

It was a black iron treasure box sunk at the bottom of the water. The treasure box was slightly larger than the one opened the day before yesterday, and its surface was more refined.

Zhang Mu knew in his heart that what he met first was an "ordinary black iron treasure box", and this was an "exquisite black iron treasure box". Although they are both black iron treasure chests, the latter are of a higher grade, so the probability of opening a skill book or special item is higher.

"I found all the treasure chests in the water. I have to say, I'm really lucky!"

Zhang Mu found no danger for the time being, and immediately swam towards the treasure box, ten meters, five meters, three meters... When he was about to touch the treasure box, he suddenly felt a surge of water in front of him, and a huge black shadow swam across his field of vision.

Phobia, that damn big guy is coming!

Zhang Mu knew that danger was approaching, but the danger did not make him flinch. Instead, he swam to the treasure chest little by little and opened the treasure chest carefully. Inside the treasure chest were several bottles of red life potion, a small amount of gold coins... In addition, there were two things that excited Zhang Mu, one was a thumb-sized red bead, and the other was a skill book!

Another book is out!

Zhang Mu didn't have time to be happy. The fish not far away suddenly swung its tail and turned around, setting off a strong torrent and rushing towards it.

Oops, I was discovered by the phoenix!

The water was six meters deep, and it was too late to surface. Zhang Mu grabbed his backpack and swam backwards. As soon as he hid in an area with tangled tree roots, the ferocious head of the fish roared towards him, and the giant teeth in his mouth came fiercely to bite him. Zhang Mu hid among the thick tree roots. The roots were as thick as a thigh. There were at least dozens of them tangled together and they were extremely strong. When the large mouth of the dinofish bit the tree root, a series of fragments suddenly broke out. One third of the tree root was bitten off, and a large amount of debris splashed into the surrounding water.

Zhang Mu was right inside the big mouth, and his tongue covered with barbs was clearly visible. If the mouth of the phoenix could be closed, he would be dead.

The dino fish bit three times in a row, but was unable to bite off so many tree roots at the same time.

However, Zhang Mu's condition was not optimistic. He began to feel severe hypoxia, and his lungs felt like they were exploding. He couldn't stay like this, otherwise he would suffocate to death.

He made a move, passed through from the side, and began to swim towards the water. Seeing this, the fear fish immediately bypassed the tangled tree roots and swam towards Zhang Mu again. Just when the sharp teeth in its mouth were about to tear him apart, Zhang Mu burst into colorful light, and the nearly ten meter long fear fish , was actually bounced back.

A-level skills God’s blessing!

Zhang Mu used the short-term invincibility effect to bounce the monster away, all attributes were improved, and his hands and feet became stronger, so his speed suddenly increased, and he finally surfaced. Without enough time to breathe, he immediately climbed up a big tree.

"Wow!"

I heard the water waves suddenly surge behind me, and the fish jumped out of the water with a roar. Zhang Mu hurriedly dodged behind the tree. The fear fish's head hit the tree, causing the whole tree to shake violently. The giant teeth bit off a large piece of bark, and finally fell into the water.

Zhang Mu immediately climbed up the tree and finally escaped disaster.

"Hi-ho!"

The fearfish failed to catch its prey and wandered around in the water unwillingly.

Zhang Mu grabbed a vine and swung it to the tree where Leng Yun was. Leng Yun reached out and pulled on it, and Zhang Mu was pulled up.

Leng Yun asked hurriedly: "Are you okay?"

Zhang Mu gasped for breath, "Fortunately...nothing happened!"

Everyone else's eyes widened. They were shocked by Zhang Mu's extraordinary courage.

Is that human being

The fat man shouted from a big tree not far away: "Fuck, boss, it's too big! How dare you provoke this damn big guy."

Zhang Mu had already regained his breath. When he heard the fat man's teasing, he immediately cursed: "How dare you say that? If you, stupid pig, didn't throw your backpack into the water, do I need to go into the water?"

The fat man didn't care at all. Instead, his eyes lit up and he said, "What, my backpack? Hey, boss, I want to discuss something with you. Those sausages are my favorite, so don't eat them."

This guy is really weird, he still cares about the sausage at this moment.

After Zhang Mu was out of danger, the first thing he did was to check the skill book and the red beads.

[Explosive Bead], FF level, special item, consumes 10 magic points to activate, can produce an explosion, with a killing range of 1 meter, causing at least 30 points of damage, and a 50% probability of stunning the target for 2 seconds.

This is a one-time combat consumable.

[Ice Arrow LV1], F+ level skill, highest level LV3, distance is 50 meters, causes 10 points +100% spell attack damage, 50% additional mental damage, has a certain probability of reducing the target's movement speed, consumes 5 MP points, and has a cooldown time of 30 seconds. .

This is a skill book for elemental masters.

"Depression is not my book!" Zhang Mu's eyes fell on the looming Terrorfish in the water, and he suddenly nodded and said, "Maybe we can kill this guy!"

Leng Yun was very surprised when she heard this: "This monster is a level 9 bronze elite monster. It is much more powerful than Deinonychus. With the strength of a few of us, can we really kill it?"

The Terrorfish is a very powerful elite monster, but through the brief contact just now, Zhang Mu discovered several of its weaknesses. Although its body is large, it is not flexible. In addition, it has a violent temperament and can only attack blindly. This dino fish should be the Dunkleosteus that appeared on the earth. There must be a reason why they were eliminated during evolution, and eventually smaller and weaker sharks became the overlords of the ocean. Darwin said: "The species that survive are not the strongest, nor the smartest, but the ones best able to adapt to changes." Dunkleosteus is a loser in evolution. The biggest reason is that it is not flexible enough. .

"Of course there is a way." Zhang Mu handed the skill book to Leng Yun: "I opened a treasure chest under the water and found the elementalist's skill book. Take it and learn it."

Of course Leng Yun understands the preciousness of skill books. She has never liked to owe others since she was a child, but now it seems that she owes Zhang Mu more and more.

Zhang Mu said: "The Terror Fish is a level 9 bronze elite. If you can kill him, your experience will be very high. However, we must first find a way to gather everyone."

The trees grew very large, and many were so close to each other that they could be crossed by their branches. Fatty, Sun Bing, Qin Min and others used a lot of effort to pass through branches, vines, etc., and finally everyone gathered together. In addition to Zhang Mu and the five others, there was also a man and a woman.

The man is a young man who looks like a high school student. He is half a head shorter than Zhang Mu. He is very thin, with slightly sunken eyes and dark circles. He looks a bit dull and has a very ordinary appearance. He is a standard otaku image. The woman is a thirty-year-old young woman with an oval face, tall figure, fair skin, and good looks and temperament.

Probably too frightened, the two of them are still trembling.

"This is our captain, Zhang Mu." Qin Min introduced each other. She pointed at the two of them and said, "His name is Liu Yao, and this sister's name is Chen Ling."

What Zhang Mu cares about is only level and skills.

The two of them are only at level 3. Although they are not high, they are just fine.

Liu Yao is a thief, and the initial skill he obtained is [Charge]. This is an F-level skill for swordsmen. It is similar to Zhang Mu's speed skating. It attacks in a straight line and has a short cooldown. It is good for attacking or escaping.

Chen Ling is a swordsman, and her initial skill is [Sprint], which is an F-level skill for assassins, thieves, shooters and other professions. After being turned on, the movement speed will increase significantly for a period of time.

No wonder, the two of them ran so fast, it turned out that they had the help of speed-increasing skills.
