nThe entire catacombs world was incomparably huge.

n

n

nIn the first few days, it was already not easy for two players to meet each other.

n

n

nIt was even more difficult for individuals to meet each other one after another.

n

n

nXaviera first met the retired scout, Charles, and then they met the young man, Paul.

n

n

nCharles had been a soldier and had extraordinary fighting abilities.

n

n

nOn the first day, the first underground cave he dug, he met a crypt creature.

n

n

nIt took him a lot of effort to kill the crypt creature.

n

n

nAfter that, he had to fight two battles to the death every day. Now, his strength was extraordinary, and he also had runic weapons.

n

n

nPaul and Xaviera were relatively weaker, but after meeting Charles, they gradually improved.

n

n

nIt seemed that no matter what the two encountered, the well-informed Charles would definitely be able to solve it.

n

n

nBut what was going on with the castle in front of them now?

n

n

nThey looked at Charles, hoping that Charles would be able to give an explanation.

n

n

nThe resolute-looking Charles shook his head and said in a deep voice, “This is also the first time I’ve seen a castle. I’ve never seen it in the catacombs before.”

n

n

n…

n

n

n“Brother Charles, what should we do? Are there game NPCs inside?” Xaviera said in a low voice.

n

n

nShe was afraid that if she made too much noise, it would alert the creatures in the castle.

n

n

nSuch an ancient castle suddenly appeared in the catacombs. There was something strange about it.

n

n

n“I think it’s possible.”

n

n

nThe young Paul nodded.

n

n

nCharles thought for a moment and said, “Don’t go near it first. Take a look around the castle. If there’s danger, immediately evacuate this place. Also, search the nearby area to see if there are any treasure chests.”

n

n

n“Okay.”

n

n

nThe other two agreed.

n

n

n“Let’s go.”

n

n

nSeeing that the two of them were nervous, Charles smiled and said, “Don’t worry, there’s no danger here. There might be more resources hidden in the castle!”

n

n

nThe three of them did not think about other players at all.

n

n

nEveryone had the same runic base. How could a broken stone house be a tall ancient castle?

n

n

n“Follow me.”

n

n

nCharlie walked in front.

n

n

nAmong the three of them, he had the best equipment. He had a runic dagger and a layer of perfect light armor on his body.

n

n

nXaviera also had a runic dagger.

n

n

nBecause the runes were not enough, Paul could only use a fine straight dagger.

n

n

nThe three of them first came to the front of the ancient castle.

n

n

nThe door was locked tightly.

n

n

nThey began to circle.

n

n

nThey were still more than ten meters away from the ancient castle when Xaviera stopped and twitched the tip of her nose.

n

n

n“Do you guys smell something special? It seems like…”

n

n

n“Instant noodles?”

n

n

nYes, it was instant noodles!

n

n

nThe three of them exchanged glances and couldn’t help but swallow their saliva.

n

n

nThey had eaten barbecued meat and buns recently, but to be honest, the stimulation to their taste buds was very dull.

n

n

nThere were no condiments!

n

n

nThe three of them couldn’t bear to exchange food and drinks for condiments, so they had been in a stalemate.

n

n

nNow that they smelled something that seemed to be instant noodles, they salivated wildly,

n

n

nTheir stomachs couldn’t help but grumble.

n

n

n“It shouldn’t be instant noodles, right?”

n

n

n“It might be another smell. Continue investigating!”

n

n

nThe three of them followed the outer perimeter and arrived on the other side of the castle.

n

n

n“Quick, look, up there!”

n

n

nPaul’s eyes were sharp, and he saw a figure on the second-floor balcony.

n

n

nXavier rubbed his eyelids and exclaimed, “It looks like… Klein!”

n

n

n“What?”

n

n

nCharles and Paul were shocked. “Why is he here?”

n

n

n“Uh, I’m not sure, but he seems to be making lunch. Could he be making instant noodles?”

n

n

nThe three of them guessed that it was possible, and their eyes widened.

n

n

n‘F**k, this guy is was carefree. It makes people envious!’

n

n

n‘Should I get close to him?’

n

n

n‘Why not? Maybe I can pull him into the team. Also, I have to ask him about this ancient castle!’

n

n

nCharlie made a decision and took the lead to walk closer to the ancient castle.

n

n

nOn the balcony, Klein was humming a tune as he cooked instant noodles.

n

n

nHe unintentionally lowered his head.

n

n

nWhen he saw the three figures approaching, he frowned slightly and muttered, “Another bunch of players? What a coincidence. They actually appeared at this time.”

n

n

nFurthermore, there were three of them.

n

n

nIf they were up to no good, he would have to delay his mealtime later.

n

n

nBelow, the only woman shouted, “Excuse me, are you Klein?”

n

n

nKlein placed his hands on the handrail and looked down at the three of them. He said coldly, “Is there something the three of you need? If there’s nothing, I want to eat instant noodles. Don’t disturb me.”

n

n

nThere was a moment of silence.

n

n

nAfter a moment, Charles said loudly, “Mr. Klein, I’m Charles. I’ve heard a lot about you! These are two of my teammates. I would like to ask you if you are willing to join our adventuring team.”

n

n

n“You should know that the deeper you dig into the catacombs, the more danger you will encounter. The crypt creatures will gradually become stronger. With teammates taking care of each other, the chances of survival will be higher.”

n

n

nKlein remained cold.

n

n

nThe three people below looked at each other.

n

n

n“…Mr. Klein, can I ask you a question?”

n

n

nCharles’s attitude was always polite.

n

n

nTo be able to live a few days on his own, he was no simple character.

n

n

nKlein paused for a moment and said, “Please leave as soon as possible after asking your questions.”

n

n

nCharlie said loudly, “Mr. Klein, is this castle a special building in the catacombs? We want to understand this information. If we encounter it in the future, we can be prepared.”

n

n

nHe was a scout and placed great importance on information.

n

n

n“It’s not a special building in the catacombs.” Klein changed his tone and said playfully, “Do you guys want to come in and take a look?”

n
