Chapter 89: The Door
Reach the end of the rift.
Kurosawa held up his flashlight to observe.
The space in front of him was filled with strange fluctuations, rippling like water.
It was similar to the aura Kurosawa felt at the entrance to space node A018, but it was much more subtle.
Kurosawa stood among them, mobilizing his spiritual energy.
Soon a gentle attraction pulled him into another world.
Both eyes turned black.
regained his sight again.
Mine tunnel?
The place where he was was still dark and cold, and it was a passage that stretched into the distance with no end.
There are dark gray rock walls on the left and right sides, which feel very solid.
A kind of purple grass like tentacles above the head grows tenaciously from the rock wall, emitting a faint light.
This passage space looks dreamy and weird, with a psychedelic sense of unreality.
Kurosawa activates psychic energy.
Feeling that he could return to the real space at any time where he was standing, he felt much more at ease.
He stretched out his hand.
The passage is not high, only more than two meters high, and you can touch the top with your hand.
absorb.
He chose to absorb the radiant purple grass for nutritional value.
"Nutritional value: 38→39"
The nutritional value has increased smoothly.
Got rich...
He looked at the ever-expanding underground mine tunnels and the purple grass growing on them.
My eyes blinked, as if I saw a lot of treasure.
Although he usually looks for magical resources in the wild, the training consumes too much and he is somewhat unable to make ends meet.
As the energy value of the elf increases, the more nutritional value is required for subsequent improvement.
He estimated that after another week of training, the nutritional value would be completely spent, and he was worried about where to find more magical resources if he could not find the ruins space without delaying the training progress.
I ran into this space unexpectedly.
He used the recognition function of his smartphone to take a photo of the glowing comfrey.
"Youming grass, a one-star magical resource."
"It can be used as a formula for many commonly used pharmaceuticals such as Mingguang Potion, Shadow Pill and so on..."
Again, the problem is that transplanting this kind of spiritual plant is a troublesome process if you want to better retain nutrients.
Moreover, if you bring it back to the alliance center and exchange it for alliance points, a lot of value will be deducted, unless you can find a client who specializes in purchasing Youmingcao in large quantities, in which case the reward may be higher.
Therefore, the idea of taking it back only existed in Kurosawa's mind for a moment.
Although I still don’t know where I am and what the environment is like, I will absorb all the comfrey first.
He raised his hand high and kept touching the glowing Youmingcao above his head.
The purple grass turned into a halo in his hands, gradually faded, and finally disappeared completely.
Nutritional value: 40
Nutritional value: 41
...
Nutritional value: 131
...
When Kurosawa absorbed the Youmingcao, he did not forget to observe the surrounding environment vigilantly.
He is still in an unknown environment, and God knows what changes will suddenly occur.
On both sides of the underground rock wall, you can see some strange textures of hieroglyphs from time to time.
Kurosawa had a vague understanding of this before. He heard that it was a symbol left by the civilization of the previous generation. Modern humans are still unable to interpret these ancient patterns.
As he walked, he absorbed the Youming grass, and at the same time used the camera function of his smartphone to take pictures of the ancient patterns on the rock wall.
Although I don’t know what the use is, I’ll take a picture first and then talk about it.
"Click."
The camera flashed and Kurosawa stopped.
He has reached the end of the passage.
Nutritional value: 366
The bumper harvest, which contained more than 300 points of nutritional value, was the largest magical resource he had obtained since becoming an elf master.
The growth rate of magical resources is very slow, and the Youming Grass is only a one-star resource.
A large piece of yew grass can provide some nutritional value.
However, the Youming grass in the passage may have grown and multiplied for too long, and there are too many of them.
The little things add up to a lot, gathering into more than 300 points of energy with nutritional value.
Kurosawa smiled so hard that his mouth widened.
Time investment in nutritional value training = increased strength.
It’s close to 400 points of nutritional value.
I think it will last a long time.
Maybe you won’t need to worry about nutritional value during the entire trip.
Kurosawa suddenly became rich and couldn't help but think happily.
He closes the system panel.
Return your attention to the world in front of you.
At the end of the passage in front of him was a strange door.
Thick metal door.
There is no lock on the door.
Kurosawa just tried to push it twice, but there was no movement. The door was quite heavy.
He looked at the local time on his smartphone.
Before I knew it, it was eight o'clock in the evening.
He didn't try to open the door and break into the world behind.
He felt he needed a night's rest before pushing the door open.
It's been a tiring day today.
In the morning, I searched for relics in the forest, and in the afternoon, I continued training.
He and the elves were already very tired physically and mentally.
At least you have to wait until your body recovers and have enough physical energy to fully activate Zeus Mode before taking the next step.
Zeus mode is his strongest trump card currently.
Without knowing what was behind the door, the cautious Kurosawa did not intend to open the door rashly.
Kurosawa returned to the starting point of the passage and activated his psychic energy.
His eyes darkened and he returned to the real world.
In order to reduce the amount of exercise the next day.
He pitched his tent directly on the large platform he climbed up to.
A night of silence.
Early the next morning, Kurosawa woke up.
Sufficient sleep restored both him and the elves to full energy.
In the distance, the red sun was rising slowly from behind the ridge.
A flock of birds flew into the sky from the sea of trees.
The whole forest is waking up.
Kurosawa lit a bonfire and boiled a pot of hot water. After letting it cool for a while, he simply washed up.
After packing his belongings, he followed the winding path to the fissure.
Went into the cracks and finally arrived at the hidden ruins space.
Turn on the flashlight.
The remains of the underground passage are bare.
Kurosawa was a little regretful. Sure enough, after one night passed, the dense Youming grass from yesterday would not appear again like magic.
Come to the end of the passage.
Kurosawa touched the metal door engraved with complicated ancient textures and took a deep breath.
The surface of the body is covered with a layer of thunder clothing, and the spiritual energy in the body is also adjusted to its best condition.
He has been mentally prepared to deal with various emergencies behind the door.
If it is beyond his ability, he will instantly enter Zeus mode and gallop directly, returning to the real world quickly along the passage.
He pressed his hands on the door.
His hands burst out with great strength, and his muscles bulged slightly.
"Um--"
He pushed hard for a long time.
As a result, nothing happened.
Is it so heavy?
Kurosawa scratched his head, a little embarrassed.
He had made so many psychological expectations. If he couldn't even push the door open, he would be too much of a clown.
"Little Shining, Little Dream, come here and help."
He waved to the two little ones.
"One, two, three, harder!"
Following Kurosawa's slogan, the three of them used their maximum strength together.
The little Shining activated its energy and used its running and pecking skills at the same time, bursting out a huge force far beyond its size and pressing against the door.
Although the Nightmare Mayfly was physically weak, it still used all its strength. Its entire small body was pressed against the door, and its transparent, film-like wings flapped desperately.
"ah--"
"call."
I pushed for a long time.
Kurosawa and the two little ones leaned against the door without any strength, breathing heavily to rest.
Still failed.
Chapter completed!
