nFrom the moment he arrived in the catacombs world, he had never excavated upwards.

n

n

nToday would be the first time.

n

n

nThe map indicated that the catacomb above was dangerous and had resources.

n

n

nIf he chose the 17th catacomb above, then the 18th catacomb would be able to dig up an iron treasure chest, and the 19th catacomb would be a silver treasure chest.

n

n

nA silver treasure chest that was even more advanced than an iron treasure chest!

n

n

nTo be able to obtain a Perfect Runic Crossbow from an iron treasure chest yesterday, the items in the silver treasure chest would definitely be even more impressive.

n

n

nJack and Tom would definitely not dare to choose this route.

n

n

nIt was fraught with danger.

n

n

nBut Klein could give it a try.

n

n

nEspecially with the help of Little Fox, he could let Little Fox lure the enemy away first.

n

n

nKlein looked up at the earthen wall above him.

n

n

nThere’s a dog spider in the catacomb above. If you have a source of fire, you can easily burn the spider silk to avoid being tied up into a mummy and harvest some resources.

n

n

nKlein flipped through the illustrated list and searched for the Dog Spider.

n

n

nDanger Factor: 26.

n

n

nIt was non-toxic, and the spider web was resilient. It was unbreakable with a knife.

n

n

nIts weakness was that it was afraid of flames, so the spider silk would catch fire easily!

n

n

nWithout the protection of the silk nest, its strength would be greatly reduced.

n

n

nKlein thought for a moment before saying, “I’ll choose to dig upwards. I can Little Fox bring the source of fire up first.”

n

n

nKlein put away the map and first opened the runic base.

n

n

nHe could first climb to the top of the runic base to dig.

n

n

nThe runic base was six meters tall.

n

n

nThe ceiling of the catacomb was about seven meters above the ground.

n

n

n“I’ll dig a tunnel first.”

n

n

nKlein piled up the sand beside the runic base.

n

n

nHe continued to build up.

n

n

nHe used the sand to climb to the roof of the runic base.

n

n

nLittle Fox came up with him

n

n

nKlein half-squatted and held the shovel with both hands. “I’ll start digging in an uncomfortable position.”

n

n

nDigging upwards bit by bit…

n

n

nKlein had already entered the tunnel, and he walked using the runic base.

n

n

nEvery time he lowered the shovel, the sand would be taken away; the difficulty of digging was greatly reduced.

n

n

nHe dug fifteen meters upwards and dug through.

n

n

nKlein placed his two feet on both sides of the tunnel and took out half a parchment.

n

n

n“Little Fox, take the fire source and go up later. Be careful of the big spiders on it. If you see a spider web, light it with fire.”

n

n

nKlein curled up half of the parchment into a roll.

n

n

nThe parchment was a small map that was never used.

n

n

n“Bite it.”

n

n

nHe stuffed one end of the parchment into Little Fox’s mouth.

n

n

n“Mmm mmm mmm…”

n

n

nLittle Fox, who was squatting on Klein’s shoulder, obediently held it in her mouth.

n

n

nKlein took out a flint and a dagger.

n

n

nHe rubbed it lightly.

n

n

nThe sparks lit up the parchment.

n

n

nIt was like lighting a cigarette.

n

n

nThe fox also took a puff and puffed out her cheeks.

n

n

n“Go up.”

n

n

nKlein gestured.

n

n

nLittle Fox exhaled a puff of white smoke and jumped gently into the black membrane.

n

n

nKlein used both his hands and feet to reach into the black membrane. With a strong push, his body became lighter than usual. He jumped out of the tunnel.

n

n

nThe seventeenth catacomb!

n

n

nAs far as the eye could see, there were fires everywhere.

n

n

nWith half a parchment in her mouth, the fox ran about, lighting fires.

n

n

nThe web caught fire, like a fuse, and quickly spread.

n

n

nSpiderwebs crisscrossed the catacomb.

n

n

nOn the wall, with a head of a dog and a spider body, the Dog Spider continuously spit silk, wanting to stop Little Fox.

n

n

nLittle Fox was dexterous, dodging easily, and igniting the webs.

n

n

nKlein took out the runic crossbow and found a good position to aim at the Dog Spider.

n

n

nThe back of this fellow looked like a dog’s head.

n

n

nIt had short brown fur all over its body.

n

n

n“Switch to multi-shot mode.”

n

n

nKlein pressed his thumb lightly.

n

n

nMulti-shot mode activated.

n

n

nHe pulled the trigger.

n

n

nFire!

n

n

nThe Dog Spider focused on dealing with Little Fox. Only when the arrow was almost in front of it did it sense danger.

n

n

nIt jumped to the side.

n

n

nPfft!

n

n

nThe bolt pierced through the Dog Spider’s fragile body.

n

n

nUnder the multiple-shot mode, the five arrows were concentrated, making it easy to hit.

n

n

nThe Dog Spider slid down the wall.

n

n

nIt only struggled on the ground for a moment before it stopped moving.

n

n

n“Little Fox, come back,” Klein shouted.

n

n

nThere were too many spider webs in the catacomb, and half of the catacomb was on fire.

n

n

nLittle Fox nimbly returned to Klein’s side.

n

n

nKlein brought Little Fox to another side of the catacomb and hid in the runic base.

n

n

nAlthough the fire wouldn’t burn the two of them to death, the runic base could withstand the high temperature.

n

n

nOtherwise, the beautiful fur of Little Fox might be charred.

n

n

nA few minutes later, Klein walked out of the runic base.

n

n

nThe air reeked of roasted meat.

n

n

nThe Dog Spider was already burning.

n

n

nKlein went over to pick up the Dog Spider’s corpse.

n

n

nSystem notification: Roasted Dog Spider Meat 1

n

n

nRoasted Dog Spider Meat: Fragrant Dog Spider meat. It has average nutrition, tastes sour, and is succulent. Current consumption of it has a satiation index of three stars. Overall score: 60.

n

n

nIt couldn’t be further decomposed.

n

n

n“Succulent…”

n

n

nKlein thought of the Dog Spider type and felt a chill run down his spine.

n

n

nIf he were to eat it, it would probably explode!

n

n

nKlein was unwilling to eat it.

n

n

n“Do you want to eat it?”

n

n

nHe lowered his head to look at the fox.

n

n

nThe fox shook its head repeatedly and took a step back in disgust.

n

n

n“Alright, I can only hang it up for sale.”

n

n

nKlein opened the trading channel and traded while it was still hot.

n

n

n‘I’ll just exchange it for some blueprints.’

n

n

nHis gaze swept across the trading market.

n

n

nHe filtered the blueprints…

n

n

nBelow him were all blueprints.

n

n

nSome needed to be changed for water, while others needed to be changed for bread and meat.

n

n

n“This blueprint isn’t bad.”

n

n

n“I’m still familiar with it.”

n

n

nKlein smiled.

nItem: Exquisite Runic Pot Blueprint

n

nRequirement: Any meat (at least 1500g) 300ml Water

n

nInventory:-1

n

n

nMessage from the seller: Bosses, come and pet me!

n

n

nThe price wasn’t cheap.

n

n

nBut it was within Klein’s acceptable range.

n

n

nThe Dog Spider in his hands had exceeded 1000g.

n

n

nAdding a random piece of lizard meat would be just enough.

n

n

nWater wasn’t a problem either. There was a pile.
