Chapter 117, Fifth Dungeon – Strange Seed



Xia Chuhe: There are two things.

Xia Chuhe: First, I've decided to temporarily form a small, unorganized group. The initial members will be the six of us, and we can brainstorm a name together.

Xia Chuhe: Secondly, in a few days, we will be doing a dungeon run with the Holy Fire Meow Meow Legion. Do you want to join?

Besides Wang Yan, the next row contains the character "要" (yao).

Xia Chuhe singled out Xia Bao'er's message: You're not good enough, wait two years before you talk about it.

Wang Yan was stunned by the news that her new sister and older sister had arranged to run a dungeon together. Had these two sisters planned this all along?

Amidst anxiety and immense pressure, Wang Yan replied: "I need..."

Xia Chuhe: Okay, let's not rush the first thing, everyone take your time to think about it.

After receiving definite answers from several people, Xia Chuhe asked Xin Diao about it. Xin Diao declined, explaining that Diao Jie's slumber had been getting longer and longer lately, and Xin Diao needed to immediately go into a dungeon the next day to continue searching for a way to merge the two of them into one.

Xia Chuhe provides Xin Diao with a clue: Back in Taoyuan Village, Wuying said the lighthouse could solve your problem.

...

Without Boss Xin joining, Xia Chuhe's side only has five people.

Xia Chuhe sent his situation to Du Zhen.

Du Zhen: Yeah, we're pretty much the same as you guys. Me, Lao Qin, the regimental commander, and Xiao Sanhua.

Xia Chuhe felt that what Du Zhen said was "almost the same" was actually quite different.

Xia Chuhe: Where's Su Ye? And your regimental commander, doesn't he have a name?

Du Zhen: Xiao Ye has something to do. You can call her A Bao.

Xia Chuhe: Do you guys have the coordinates for the dungeon?

Du Zhen: It depends on you. If you don't have the coordinates you want to go to, we can provide one.

Xia Chuhe opened the farm, glanced at the dungeon locator (trial version), and decided to retract his previous review.

The recap is very useful; it can mitigate risks to some extent and provide clues. The animals can reproduce on their own, and perhaps once we get the real roulette wheel, merging them into a formal instance locator would be a good option.

Thinking this, Xia Chuhe drew another dungeon—Strange Seed.

Mom, what kind of seed are you talking about?

It is hope.

Mom, can I produce seeds for you?

You can't.

Mom, do I need seeds?

You don't need to.

Mom, why did you raise me? Is it because I can bring you hope?

Yes, you are my hope for survival.

Mom, I'm so happy. I knew you loved me the most.

Mom, I will definitely find the seed for you, find hope.

Mom, I miss you so much. It's all dark around me, and I'm all alone.

Mom, are you still there? I'm so thirsty, I'm dry and ugly, and I hear something coming.

Mom, there are so many bugs here, it hurts so much, I'm going to be eaten.

Mother……

Mother……

Mother……

Mom, I've found you. We'll never be apart.

...

Xia Chuhe: ...

Is there something wrong with the dungeon locator in the beta version? The backstory is getting more and more terrifying.

Based on the clues provided by the farm, the key to this copy lies in the seeds and the mother and child.

In the first few sentences, the relationship between the mother and child seemed normal, but then the tone suddenly changed, as if the mother buried the child in the ground and the child found his mother again.

Horror stories of the dead coming back to life.

Xia Chuhe felt a sense of resistance.

Xia Chuhe: Sister Zhen, what dungeons are available where you are?

Du Zhen sent Xia Chuhe several coordinates: the first was a large, officially registered instance, offering a high degree of freedom, but also making it difficult to find the instance's core. Abao wanted to run the instance with you to see you find the core. If you don't find it this time…

Du Zhen's implication was that A Bao had probably become attached to Xia Chuhe, unless he personally went through the process of finding the dungeon core with Xia Chuhe.

Du Zhen: As for the other coordinates, it's uncertain whether there are any dungeons. They are suspicious locations recently posted by other members of the guild. We have to go there to determine if there are any dungeons.

Xia Chuhe took a look and realized that the dungeons found by Sacred Fire Meow Meow were not as reliable as those drawn from the farm.

Xia Chuhe sent the coordinates of the Strange Seed copy to Du Zhen: I only have this copy coordinates, and the information is limited. I only know some information related to the seed and the mother-child relationship.

Du Zhen: Are there seeds? Perhaps we can get some good loot in this instance.

The two finally agreed to meet at the coordinates of the Strange Seed instance three days later.

Over the course of three days, weapons that needed maintenance were maintained, and those that needed replenishment were replenished.

Three days later, the two groups met at the coordinates.

What reassured Wang Yan was that Sister Zhen didn't focus her attention on him, and Lao Qin didn't distance himself from him because he had left the corps.

Ah Bao was still wearing the same dirty shoes as before, and Xiao Sanhua's little ears peeked out from the collar of her robe.

Xia Chuhe casually asked, "Where's Xiao Ye?"

Little Three-Flower's ears twitched.

Du Zhen said, "She has other things to do."

The eight people and one cat didn't exchange many pleasantries; each led their teammates directly into the dungeon.

The dungeon landing site was a room resembling a safe house, damp and stuffy, with dim, pale lighting.

There were five pale-faced men in the room, eyeing each other warily and arguing loudly.

Upon seeing the newly arrived evolved human, the atmosphere among the five instantly changed, and all their wariness vanished.

Xia Chuhe only heard one sentence: "Form a team first, then we'll talk about it."

The man in the lead subconsciously straightened his clothes and gave a friendly smile: "Are you together?"

Xia Chuhe and Du Zhen exchanged a glance and said in unison, "No."

The man visibly relaxed: "This is a competitive dungeon, where you form a team of three to five. The next step will only be revealed after you form a team. We've been waiting here for... two days now. Thank goodness you guys came, otherwise we would have wasted seven days."

“Then we can split into three teams,” Du Zhen said.

Xia Chuhe instantly realized that before they arrived, the five men had been arguing about splitting into teams, but no matter how they divided the five men, they couldn't possibly form two teams.

Xia Chuhe listened to their conversation while observing his surroundings.

The room was spacious, and the dim lighting could only illuminate a small area in the center. Fortunately, the evolved human's night vision allowed Xia Chuhe to see the situation in the corner.

The room was very dirty, with a lot of dust and cobwebs tangled and piled up in the corners.

A person, silently leaning against the corner of the wall with their head down.

Xia Chuhe gave Lu Dangui a wink, signaling her to keep an eye on the men, while he went to check the situation from the corner.

The person remained motionless.

Xia Chuhe squatted down on the ground and asked in a low voice, "Hello?"

The people on the ground did not react.

Xia Chuhe tried to pat her, but the man in the room shouted, "Don't touch her!"
