Chapter 159: Treasure chest wrapped in vines, discovering a primitive tribe



Cao Xing was immediately excited.

This was because several tons of wild boar meat in his backpack had been invaded by the dark aura.

The system notes say that you need to find the Boar Warrior Tribe and then find the Beast God Statue to purify the dark aura on it.

This meat is safe to eat and can also be traded with other survivors!

"Lab, do you know how to find your tribe?"

Rab nodded and said, "It should be possible. According to our custom, we will leave some hidden road signs on these totems to guide other tribesmen back to the tribe."

"Very good! Then you can lead us to find the Boar Warrior Tribe in this forest now!"

Rab nodded and said, "As you command, my powerful lord!"

After saying that, Lab came to the totem and started walking around, as if looking for some information.

After a moment, he said excitedly: "I found the direction. Please follow me, my powerful lord!"

Cao Xing nodded, then led his team forward behind Lab.

It twists and turns all the way.

Along the way, Cao Xing also found six more ice phoenix flowers.

Cao Xing walked over and collected them all.

He glanced at his backpack.

【Ice Dragon Flower (Blue)*33】

"Not bad, not bad. These ice phoenix flowers are enough to make more than a hundred bottles of intermediate life secret medicine."

"And I can have Juliette plant it and use the green-grade heart of the man-faced tree to speed up the growth process."

"Plus, the pale tree is about to grow, which can speed up the growth of the plants in the territory again!"

"It won't be long before I can own more Ice Jaguar Flowers and achieve Ice Jaguar Petal Freedom!"

Cao Xing thought happily.

And at this moment.

Lab stopped in a dense jungle.

There are dense vines here, completely filling the area in front.

Not even Sarah could force her way through the vines.

It was as if there was a wall blocking everyone's way.

In front of this area.

Cao Xing saw a series of strange buildings built with huge stones.

Some look like stone towers, and some look like giant stone totems.

There are strange symbols engraved on each stone.

A system prompt appears.

[You have discovered a special location: Wild Boar Tribe]

"Oh? Found it?"

Cao Xing showed a happy expression on his face, and then asked, "Labu, is this the Wild Boar Tribe?"

Rab nodded, "Yes, my great lord, but this is not the tribe we once lived in."

"We, the boar warriors, are all descendants of the beast god. We can be found in many primeval jungles and gathering places."

"It looks like the members of this wild boar tribe have already left."

Cao Xing's eyes lit up when he heard this, "Left?"

Rab nodded, "Yes."

What a great feeling! Cao Xing was preparing to purify wild boar meat and thought he would have to deal with the indigenous people of this tribe.

Now it seems that there is no need to go through so much trouble.

Cao Xing continued to ask: "Where is the statue of the beast god of this tribe? Do you know?"

After thinking for a moment, Lab said, "My Lord, our beast statues are usually inside the tribe, and we need to go inside to find them."

Then Lab pointed to the area ahead that was completely filled with vines and said.

"This should be the interior of the Wild Boar Tribe. We need to find the entrance to enter..."

Cao Xing nodded again after hearing this, "Very good, then let's go look for it."

After that, Assam and others started to act.

Including four wild boar warriors, they also began to search around the area covered with various vines.

At this time, the four boar warriors whispered, "Lab, even though there are no people in this tribe, the interior of the tribe is our forbidden area and only we boar warriors can enter.

"Is it not a good idea to bring in outsiders now?"

Rab shook his head and said, "What do you know? We, the boar warriors, are descendants of the beast god and believe in powerful forces!"

"Back then, the chief of our tribe also agreed to allow several powerful human knights to enter the tribe."

"And this lord is obviously very powerful. With the power he possesses, he is fully qualified to enter our tribe!"

After hearing this, the other three wild boar warriors showed a look of realization in their clear eyes.

Then they nodded one after another and began to look for it.

And Cao Xing was also wandering around nearby.

In addition to the megalithic statues and totems, there are also some small rooms built of stones.

He walked into one of the rooms and took a look.

The interior was covered with moss and there were even vines growing on the walls.

But because of the extremely low temperature, the moss here is covered with a layer of frost.

In the corner of the small room, Cao Xing also saw a treasure chest entangled by vines.

"Huh? There's a treasure chest?"

Cao Xing walked over quickly and a system prompt appeared in front of him.

[Bronze treasure chest wrapped in vines]

(It can only be opened after the vines are removed.)

"Do you want to remove the vines? That's pretty easy."

Cao Xing called Liu Muxue over and asked her to use the warrior's short sword to cut off the vines in no time.

Then the treasure chest becomes openable.

Cao Xing clicked to open it directly.

"Oh? Another recruitment scroll? And a blueprint of a stone house."

As usual, I checked the properties of these new things.

Cao Xing was delighted to see the introduction of these two new materials.

"This winter squash is just a light bulb, right? But it can be used as a food ingredient, which is pretty good."

After putting these things into his backpack, Cao Xing continued to search in other stone houses.

There are a total of five stone houses nearby, and Cao Xing opened one of them.

Two of the stone houses were empty, while the other two contained a bronze treasure chest.

Cao Xing walked over and opened them all.

"Another Boar Warrior recruitment scroll. Not bad."

However, the level of the second-tier ordinary boar warrior is a bit low.

The monsters in this forest are of high level. Cao Xing was afraid that they would be killed instantly after being summoned, so he decided to wait until he returned to the territory before summoning them.

He examined two new acquisitions.

【Stone staircase construction drawings】

[Mutated Wild Berry Seeds: Magic Plants]

(A variant of wild raspberry with a sweeter taste and a faster growth cycle.)

"Not bad, not bad."

At this point, all the stone houses outside that were covered with moss and vines had been looted by Cao Xing.

At the same time, Lab shouted, "My Lord, we found the gate."

Hearing the sound, Cao Xing walked out.

Then I saw Lab stopped in front of a patch of vines.

Cao Xing asked in confusion: "Is this the main gate?"

Rab nodded, "Yes, my great lord, behind these vines is the gate leading to the tribe."

Cao Xing nodded, and then asked Liu Muxue beside him to cut the vines.

Swish! Swish!

Following Liu Muxue's sword.

However, the sword's blade, which had always been invincible, now seemed to be hitting steel, making a dull sound.

Liu Muxue chopped several times with the sword, leaving only a few white marks on the vines.

She said with some frustration: "Ah Xing... I can't cut it off..."

Cao Xing comforted her, and then asked Assam next to him to try it as well, and the result was the same.

At this moment Cao Xing was stunned.

"Is this vine so tough? Even a level 3 boss knight can't cut it?"

Lab explained with a smile: "My Lord, this is a giant vine from our tribe. Every tribe has one."

"It can protect our tribal territory from harm. Ordinary attacks cannot hurt it."

"It will only retract if we use a spell specific to our tribe."

Cao Xing nodded suddenly, then said speechlessly: "Why didn't you tell me earlier if you knew this?"

Lab smiled innocently.

Then he stuck to it, muttering something to himself.

All the vines retracted, revealing a stone door with white vines growing on it.

There was light in the eyes of the four boar warriors.

It was the joy of coming home.

Meanwhile, as Lab continued to chant the spell.

After a while, everyone felt a vibration under their feet.

Boom!

Then, the stone gate in front began to rise gradually.

As expected, the dark scene inside did not appear. Instead, there was a ray of light and even a burst of warm air.

With a curious look, Cao Xing led everyone in.

And the moment they entered the stone gate, it was as if they had entered another green world.

Everything here is completely different from the Witchwood.

All the vegetation outside was covered in a pale white color by frost.

And here, there is actually vibrant green!

There are all kinds of plants and flowers everywhere.

The entire tribe was surrounded by a huge stone wall about five meters high, which was about the same size as Cao Xing's territory, but larger than his.

The diameter is estimated to be four or five kilometers.

Moreover, the city walls are covered with dense giant vines that extend to more than ten meters high, so it is equivalent to having two layers of protection.

In addition, Cao Xing and his friends also heard the sound of gurgling water and the chirping of insects and birds.

It’s so warm that it feels like returning to the forest on the blue planet!

Cao Xing glanced at the countdown above his head.

[Distance until nightfall: 4 hours and 17 minutes…]

【Current temperature: 12℃】

"Oh my god, the temperature is actually positive."

"Rano, is this true for all the tribes you live in?"

Lano nodded proudly and said, "Yes, my powerful lord, our territory has always been warm."

"Why is it different from outside?" Cao Xing was a little confused.

Lano replied: "I don't know the details, but our leader said that the boar warriors are a race protected by the beast god."

"But I guess it might be related to the giant vine in our tribe."

"That giant vine protects our territory and also creates a comfortable temperature for us."

Cao Xing nodded and felt that Lab's speculation made sense.

At the same time, he thought to himself: "This giant vine is a good thing. Not only can it protect the entire tribe, but it can also change the ecological environment inside.

"It's probably a plant of epic quality. It would be great if I could get one to my territory."

So, Cao Xing asked directly: "Labu, can this giant vine be found? Or, can I take it away?"

Rab shook his head and said, "My great lord, we cannot take the giant vine away. It is the guardian bestowed upon us by the Beast God."

"Even we, the Boar Tribe warriors, created our tribe based on where the vines grew."

"And every time we migrate, we have to find new forests where giant vines grow."

Cao Xing nodded again, feeling a little regretful.

"Forget it, let's move on."

They began to move forward.

After passing through a small forest, the scene in front of us suddenly opened up.

A moss-covered open-air square appeared ahead.

This square is located underground.

It looked like it was dug out from the air, and was at least seven or eight meters deep.

Similar to the Colosseum in Rome, but with a larger and deeper square in front.

There are several bluestone stairs leading down around the square.

In the center stands a huge stone statue about five or six meters high.

This is a wild male statue.

He held a huge axe in one hand and wore a beast skin skirt, like a hunter ready to slaughter a beast, full of primitive style!

Around the square, there are stone gates embedded in the soil.

Lab said excitedly: "We are here, our powerful lord!"

"This is the square where our Wild Boar Tribe usually holds various ceremonies. The statue in the middle is the beast god you are looking for."

Hearing this, Cao Xing's eyes suddenly lit up.

"Hey guys, this is the beast statue?"

"You found it so easily?"

Lab smiled innocently and said, "Because we are here, of course it's easy."

"If it's an outsider, it's impossible to enter our wild boar tribe, unless he has a power stronger than the giant vines!"

Rab said confidently.

At this time, Liu Muxue pointed to an area in the distance, which was opposite the square, and said, "Ah Xing, do you see a gap there?"

Hearing this, Cao Xing also looked in the direction he was looking.

Then he saw a gap with a diameter of at least three meters.

The city wall at that place had collapsed, and the giant vines seemed to have been broken by some terrifying creature, leaving a big hole.

The cold air from outside penetrated in and turned the plants in that area into white frost.

Seeing this scene, the four wild boar warriors' pupils shrank!

"Oh my god! I actually broke through the giant vines!"

"Even level 4 creatures can't tear these vines apart. How strong is this guy who broke in?"

At this point, a look of realization flashed across Lab's eyes.

"I think I understand why there are no people in this wild boar tribe!"

"They were targeted by this powerful invader, and the invader entered the tribe. They had no choice but to leave here."

Hearing this, Cao Xing's expression changed.

Because according to what Lab said, this invader is definitely at level four, or even above!

At this time, Sarah appeared silently in the darkness, "My Lord, I don't feel any danger here."

"The intruder may have left."

Hearing this, Cao Xing breathed a sigh of relief.

It’s good that you’re gone.

If so, it would be another fierce battle.

Then, Cao Xing said, "Labu, the intruder is not here, take us down."

"Yes, my great lord!"

Rab held the two swords and walked down the stairs.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Dabai also followed down, and its strong elephant hooves made a heavy sound every time they stepped on the bluestone steps.

Soon, the group arrived at the open-air square below.

The architectural style here is the same as that of the Wild Boar Tribe.

The entire structure is made of huge stones and the ground is covered with moss.

Only on that statue did no leeks grow.

Not even a speck of dust could be seen.

It's as if this statue really possesses some kind of divine power.

Cao Xing led everyone to the statue of the beast god and asked, "Labu, I have a batch of things that have been invaded by the dark aura. I need to use the power of the altar to purify the dark aura."

"What should I do?"

Rab listened, then turned around and said, "My Lord, if you want to use the power of the beast statue, you need to offer a sacrifice first."

"Sacrifice? What sacrifice?"

"Fresh beast meat. The stronger the beast, the better. The Beast God will like it!"

After hearing this, Cao Xing fell into deep thought.

Then, he took out a piece of [Snow Bear Meat] and asked, "Is this kind of meat okay?"

After sensing the power contained in the violent bear meat, Lab nodded excitedly and said, "Yes, Lord!"

"Of this level of beast meat, only 10 pieces are needed to activate the power of the beast statue once."

A look of joy appeared on Cao Xing's face!

There were still more than a hundred pieces of bear meat left in his backpack.

Great! This way, we can purify all the wild boar meat!
