The sun rose from the sea level and Roger woke up to the sound of a cat's meow.
Last night, he returned to the cabin.
Lina has already left, and she is still hesitant about going out to sea.
Old Nelson got up early as usual, but this time he did not disappear as usual. Instead, he sat beside Holly's grave and rested quietly.
Roger didn't bother him.
He didn't plan to go fishing today.
The profit from fishing was too low, so he planned to use the Zephyr Cave Key to explore the cave.
He had made sufficient preparations for this yesterday.
He even spent a huge amount of money to buy a flintlock rifle.
“I don’t know if this key has a return function.”
Roger muttered.
To be on the safe side, he drove the boat to the island and then took out the key.
[Do you want to use the key to teleport to the Japanese Cave? ]
After making the choice, the space around the game character began to distort, and then the screen went black.
When the light appeared again, we had arrived in front of the familiar stone gate.
Speaking of which, Roger also felt a little emotional.
He and old Nelson had walked a long way ahead and thought this would be the end, but unexpectedly it was just the beginning.
Then, Rogge checked the key again and found that it did have the function of returning to the position before the transmission.
He was relieved, this meant he could explore the Zephyr Cave anytime, anywhere.
"let's start."
In anticipation, Roger took out the pearl lamp given by old Nelson and used the key to open the stone door.
Boom…
The heavy stone door slowly opened with a dull thud, and some moss and dirt fell from the gap.
[The door that buried the unknown has been opened, and the seal has loosened.]
[You are being watched by an unknown person.]
At this moment, the game suddenly gave such a prompt, which made Logton feel uneasy.
"That's not a nice thing to say!"
As he spoke, Rogge did not hesitate and stepped into the stone gate with the light of the pearl lamp.
There was no special change on the inner wall of the stone gate. It was still an uneven stone wall, as if it was just an ordinary cave.
Rogge moved forward along this passage.
But this time, he found some things on the road that looked like biological remains. They shattered when touched and he couldn't tell what they were.
Not long after I left, a sharp cry came from the game, a bit like a mouse.
But in fact, they were a group of bats that were disturbed by Roger.
They didn't even attack Rogue, they just flew around in panic.
Cave Bats
[Type: Biological]
[Quality: Ordinary]
[Grade 1]
[Rank: None]
[Explanation: Bats that live in caves have very poor eyesight and feed on insects.]
After confirming that these bats posed no threat, Rogge ignored them and continued moving forward.
Rogge walked very carefully along the way, wary of possible monsters or traps.
His vigilance was useful.
“Squeak!”
Three huge rats suddenly came out and launched a sneak attack on Rogge without any explanation.
Cave Rat
[Type: Biological]
[Quality: Ordinary]
[Level: 3]
[Rank: None]
[Description: A type of rat that often appears in large tombs. It likes to eat carrion, but of course, it will not refuse fresh flesh and blood.]
Roger, who was on guard, was not hurt, but the three mice were still relentless and came at him to bite again.
Rogge did not switch to the real perspective immediately, but deliberately used the game perspective to fight.
Soon, the game character on the screen relied on his powerful reaction speed and the terrifying claws on his hands to start the massacre.
After killing the last one, Roger thought for a moment, subdued it, and then turned into a clone.
[You killed the cave carnivore rat and gained combat experience. ]
The prompt sounded twice in succession, but Rogge did not see any information about the character's level being upgraded.
"Two rats don't seem to give as much as one horror..."
Roger complained and started picking up the spoils.
But he soon made an unexpected discovery.
Rat, not only does it give little experience, but the things it drops are also not ordinary garbage.
But it's very garbage.
[You found a rat tail x 1. ]
[You found rat meat x 1. ]
Rat tails can be used as some ingredients, but rat meat is directly judged by the system as "not recommended for consumption".
Just for killing small monsters.
Rogge shook his head and continued to move forward with a cave rat clone in his hand.
After a while, the environment in front of Rogge finally underwent a drastic change.
At a fork in the road, a man-made building appeared.
A large column runs through the upper and lower ends of the cave, dividing the passage into two directions.
Moreover, in front of the large column, there was a blazing bonfire.
And Rogge's attention was all focused on one place.
That's under the brazier.
I saw a dusty wooden box placed under the brazier.
Treasure chest!
Although it was a wooden treasure chest, it could not erase Roger's enthusiasm for him.
However, Roger still had some sanity.
The game Uncharted Sea sometimes doesn't play by the rules, so it's better to be careful.
Maybe there is a monster hiding nearby.
However, even though Rogge knew this, he did not intend to give up the treasure chest, even though it was just made of wood.
There is no need to explain how tempting treasure chests are to players.
So even if there is a problem, Rogge doesn't plan to take a detour.
In the eyes of players, there is no treasure chest that cannot be opened!
Thinking of this, Rogge controlled the cave rat clone and carefully approached the wooden treasure chest.
Coming to the treasure chest, the cave rat looked around to make sure there was no danger.
Only then did Rogge walk to the treasure chest with confidence and stretched out his hand to open it.
And in the next second...
"Woof!"
The treasure chest in front of Rogge suddenly revealed a big mouth with sharp teeth, and bit Rogge's hands mercilessly.
Oh shit!
Roger's phone shook in shock.
And at this moment, the treasure chest had already bitten hard into the hand of the game character.
[Health -45]
The game character let out a scream.
After coming to his senses, Rogge quickly controlled the game character to atomize and escape from the bloody mouth of the treasure chest.
With a thud, the treasure chest fell to the ground and kept yelling at Rogge fiercely.
[Box Dog·Wood]
[Type: Extraordinary Creature]
[Quality: Elite]
[Grade 1]
[Rank: Extraordinary]
[Description: Brave adventurers, don't fail to defeat the treasure chest! ]
This treasure chest is a monster!
The corner of Roger's mouth twitched, and his mind suddenly recalled familiar encounters in some games he had played before.
Suddenly, he became extremely angry and controlled the game character to walk forward and kick him.
Damn bastard!
Bang!
The box dog that was kicked against the wall by Roger fell to the ground, shook its head and whimpered, then stretched out its two short legs and ran towards the left passage.
"Damn it, don't run!"
Roger, who had not expected this at all, was shocked and hurriedly followed.
