"Let's open the dormitory first!"

Pointing to the door of the dormitory, Hope looked at Carl expectantly.

However, through psychic power, Carl had already gotten a rough idea of ​​what was inside the door.

Inside the room, two huge corpses, wearing all their equipment, lay on the ground hugging each other.

The power of time had long since turned the two fire giants into rotten corpses, and all the non-magical objects in the room had also decayed.

A huge book fell next to the corpses of the two giants. It looked like a spell book or exploration diary of one of the giants.

There was no smell of death in the room, which meant that the two giants probably did something to their bodies before they died.

Turning around, Carl patted Hope on the shoulder and said, "There may not be anything in there that you imagine. The two drivers of this mine cart are resting in this room."

But even though he said this, he still opened the door.

The furnishings in the room were exactly as Carl's spirit could see.

Looking at the corpses of the two giants, Hope suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.

It was like seeing the future of himself and Carl.

An inexplicable feeling of sadness surged in her heart, and she asked Karl with trembling lips in a low voice: “Karl, will we…”

Before Hope could continue speaking, Carl slapped her on the butt.

"Don't let your imagination run wild. Come over here and pay your respects to the two seniors. Be polite!"

“Bang!”

As soon as he finished speaking, Carl kowtowed to the ground.

Carl then stood up and lit a stick in the southeast corner of the room.

Without waiting for Hope to react, he picked up those things that were still usable and moved them outside with nimble hands and feet.

"Didn't you say you should be polite?"

Looking at Carl's skillful movements, Hope was frozen in place for a moment.

"Don't just stand there and watch. Take the magic book and the keys tied around their waists."

Seeing that Hope didn't move, Carl reminded him angrily.

After waking up from his daze, Hope hesitated for a moment, then moved all the items and equipment out at an even faster speed.

As a tiefling from Droam, "picking up equipment" is a passive skill that is almost engraved in Hope's bones.

Not to mention those whose original owners have already turned into bones, Hope has even "picked up" those that were half-dead.

Of course, she was not as particular as Karl back then. She even kowtowed to the original owner before picking it up.

Soon, the stick in the southeast corner went out, and Carl looked at the last two giant weapons in his hand and put them back.

"Okay, that's enough. To do this job, you have to know the rules!"

Carl picked up Hope, who still wanted to continue moving, and walked out of the dormitory, closed the door and locked it.

His slightly abstract behavior left Hope with a lot of question marks in his head.

She couldn't help but start to reflect on her recent behavior, thinking that it was because she had been exploiting Carl too frequently recently that caused his current symptoms.

The strong emotional fluctuations immediately attracted Carl's attention. Looking at Hope, Carl defended himself:

"I'm not crazy, I'm just following the bottom line. They're dead, but they left us a temporary shelter. We have to give them the minimum respect!"

"Then why are you taking other people's belongings?"

"Hey! This relic will be useless if it continues to be placed in the room. But if it is given to me, it can at least increase our chances of survival. Besides, I have left something for him."

"I've let you say all the words..."

However, when Hope saw the armor materials that Carl removed from the giant's corpse, he nodded with relief.

The materials used in the giants' equipment are quite solid, and the armor of the two giants is enough for Carl and Hope to upgrade their equipment.

"What are you going to do with these materials?"

"Of course, I will continue to upgrade the power armor. Is there any equipment you want?"

Looking up and thinking for a while, Hope pointed to his feet and hands.

"Please help me make a set of combat boots and arm armor, and also help me make two hand axes with this material."

The hand axe that Hope had obtained from the mind flayer base in the main plane was made of the most common materials. It was considered extremely frugal for Hope to have persisted in using it until now.

"Okay, give me two days, then there is still..."

As he spoke, Hope raised a piece of his arm armor.

At this moment, a huge golden key slipped out from the arm armor.

Looking at the huge golden key that was at least 1.5 meters long, Carl quickly squatted down to check it out.

"It's actually made of high-purity gold! The giants are really rich!"

Fine gold, a special metal material.

Unlike Mithril, Adamantium is extremely inefficient in conducting magic.

But this also makes the equipment mixed with refined gold materials become the favorite of the "cleaver team", that is, physical combat professions such as warriors and barbarians.

The goblins who now live in the Kvareda Gon region are experts at smelting alt-metal equipment.

Some of the equipment that Carl had previously obtained from the goblin tribe was also mixed with refined gold materials.

But the key in front of him was made of almost pure gold.

A long sword made entirely of high-purity fine gold can even cut through a dragon's breath and pierce its scales.

But the giants used it to make a key.

"This doesn't look like the key here. The teeth are wrong."

"Could it be the key to their old home?"

"Giants don't have that luxury, do they?"

"Put it in the dimensional bag first. Maybe we can make a lot of money with it after we get out."

Unable to figure out the purpose of the key, the two of them stopped bothering with it.

After putting away the half-person-high keys, the two continued to check the remaining things to make sure nothing was missed.

Among the many remaining items, the two obtained two giants' storage equipment.

That should be a dimensional bag that is unique to the giants. The bag opening is larger than that of ordinary dimensional bags, and the mass and volume of objects that can be accommodated inside are also greater.

There was nothing in the dimensional bags of the two giants. Carl felt that the two giants must have taken out all the contents and put them on before they died.

Two sets of outer skins were made with monitor lizard skins. Carl used two giant dimensional bags as inner liners and made them into backpacks, one for each of him and Hope.

Not only will there be an empty spot for Carl's injection, but the two of them will also be able to pack more things.

After the busy work, the two of them had a quick meal, then cleaned the remaining rooms and fell asleep peacefully.

There was nothing of value in the remaining rooms, but the stove in the kitchen gave Carl some ideas on how to smelt metal materials.
