Chapter 495: A New Space Rich In Resources
However, there were more and more opponents around them. They would face a more difficult situation than before.
At this moment, Klein and James felt the ground shake again.
It seemed like this space wasn’t very stable. The surrounding buildings were shaking.
From time to time, gravel and wood chips would fall,
James was a little flustered. ‘This is bad. This place looks like it’s about to collapse. It’s about to collapse the moment it falls. Isn’t this a little too unkind?’
Klein frowned slightly. From his point of view, space was stable. It was impossible for it to keep shaking for no reason.
There must be a reason for such a huge tremor.
This reason was also closely related to them falling into this space. He patted James on the shoulder.
“Let’s go! Follow me to take a look!”
At that moment, the system began to prompt.
[There’s a monster in the upper left space. Its combat strength is 6.5!]
The system’s prompt was rather detailed. This monster was extremely difficult to deal with. It could basically fight against spells above tier 6. However, this fellow was indeed the main culprit behind the instability of the entire space.
He had to find it first in order to alleviate the current situation.
The system notified him that there was a rare energy source in the monster’s body. It was the philosopher’s stone that Klein had been searching for.
Klein’s eyes lit up. Philosopher’s Stone? Such a resource was extremely rare, and it could be used to refine high-grade weapons.
It was one of the necessities that Klein was currently searching for.
It was in the stomach of a demonic beast?
Upon receiving this information, Klein immediately made up his mind to deal with the monster first.
On one hand, it could improve the current unstable situation in the space. On the other hand, he was determined to obtain the Philosopher’s Stone.
“James, follow me. Upper left corner!”
James was a little confused. They had just fallen into this space, and he was about to take action before he was fully prepared?
After a moment of silence, he said, “God Klein, should we wait and see? The current situation is like opening a blind box. If we aren’t careful, we might open something very troublesome.”
“Have you heard of the saying, ‘good and bad go hand in hand’? Do you think that if you open something troublesome, there might be a lot of resources waiting for you?”
James blinked his eyes. He had heard of it before, but he didn’t believe it.
Many people felt that the interests before them were the most important. There was no need for them to go through all that suffering to obtain the little resources behind them.
However, Klein seemed to have made up his mind. He dug a crack and entered the space in the upper left corner.
It was dark and lusterless. It seemed to be a space outside of the normal human world. There was no life to speak of.
They seemed to have entered a narrow catacomb. Other than the occasional sound of water dripping, everything was silent.
At that moment, James was also calculating in his heart. Typically, such a place would have a large amount of scarce resources to obtain.
Klein’s judgment this time was probably correct.
At that moment, the two of them actually heard a slight sound.
Just around the corner not far from them, there was a trembling sound.
Both of their faces were filled with vigilance.
Then, they actually heard a barely audible moan.
Klein frowned slightly. He could tell that the sound was very weak.
Could it be that the legendary monster had been seriously injured for some reason? Wouldn’t that mean that it wouldn’t take much effort to find it?
With this in mind, Klein quickly made his way around the corner.
What appeared in front of him wasn’t the legendary monster, but an old, rusty iron cage!
The iron cage was already wrapped in layers of vines, forming a strange, broken beauty of the Middle Ages.
And in the cage, there was a short human lying down.
That’s right, it was a human.
The weak moans that the two of them heard just now were from this person’s back.
This should be a female, and she was seriously injured and had no strength left.
James’ eyes widened in shock. How could there be a human in this place?
Logically speaking, they had entered a new catacomb space, and it should have never been developed before. It should be the legendary no man’s land.
Could it be that there were other explorers in this place besides them?
James had always been kind to women. He didn’t have any doubts when he saw the scene in front of him.
He hurriedly rushed over in an attempt to save the frail girl.
Klein grabbed James’ arm tightly.
“Don’t go over yet. I think there’s something fishy about this matter.”
From the information Klein had obtained, the gigantic demon beast wasn’t easy to deal with.
If he were to recklessly approach the iron cage, it was very likely that he would fall into the trap that the other party had set up.
James didn’t think much of it. He seemed to have been bewitched as he walked straight over. Klein couldn’t stop him even if he wanted to.
What James didn’t expect was that the sturdy-looking iron cage in front of him was actually an illusion.
His entire body had actually passed through the iron cage!
In his surprise, James had already run up to the girl and wanted to lower his head to ask about the situation.
At this moment, Klein already felt that something was amiss. He wanted to quickly go forward to stop him, but he was a step too late.
The girl, who had been crouching on the ground, instantly changed her body shape.
Her thin and small body became larger and larger, and the fur on her body gradually appeared.
In an instant, a girl who looked pitiful had turned into a huge, ferocious, and strange monster!
James was indeed shocked. He didn’t expect that this was a disguise made by a monster. It was simply a lie!
The scene in front of him confirmed Klein’s guess. It was a highly intelligent demon beast that knew how to use a disguise to bait its prey.
Faced with the prey that had fallen into its trap, the monster had a smug look on its face.
When it saw James’s eyes, it was as if it had seen dinner that night. It howled in excitement.
As for James, he had seen the world. Although he had fallen into the trap set by the other party, he wasn’t at a loss.
James instantly adjusted his state, and the weapon in his hand was ready.
At this moment, Klein attempted to cross the iron cage to reinforce him.
But to their surprise, the moment Klein approached the iron cage, he realized that the cage, which had previously appeared as an illusion, had now become solid!
When he reached out to touch it, it was bone-chilling!
Klein instantly reacted. Oh no, this was another trap set by the monster.
Everything they had seen just now was actually an illusion, including the iron cage in front of them and the girl who was struggling on the verge of death.
Once the illusory realm became reality, everything returned to its original state.
James was already locked in this terrible iron cage!
