n“Choose a corner first.”

n

n

nKlein followed the instructions and found a random corner.

n

n

nBefore he brandished the shovel, a line of golden words appeared once again.

n

n

nThis corner is dangerous.

n

n

nKlein went to the other side.

n

n

nThis corner is dangerous.

n

n

nThe same hint!

n

n

nWith no other choice, Klein could only shift another location.

n

n

nThis corner is fine.

n

n

nChoose a location.

n

n

nDig!

n

n

nKlein brandished his shovel.

n

n

nSystem notification: Sand 1

n

n

nSand 1

n

n

nSand 1

n

n

n…

n

n

nKlein didn’t really need sand.

n

n

nThe main reason was that it took up too much space.

n

n

nHowever, there was no need to pay attention to this at the moment.

n

n

nHe directly dug down into the catacombs.

n

n

nKlein wanted to use the sand to create a cushion.

n

n

nHe dug hard.

n

n

nSoon, the 20-meter-deep underground cave was dug.

n

n

nAnother shovel.

n

n

nIt was empty!

n

n

nKlein looked down.

n

n

nA black hole appeared.

n

n

n‘What could be inside?’ Klein thought to himself, unsure.

n

n

nHowever, Klein decided to try the situation first.

n

n

nKlein thought.

n

n

nThere seemed to be the sound of a unit of sand falling.

n

n

nHe pricked up his ears to listen.

n

n

nHe couldn’t hear the sound of sand falling to the ground at all.

n

n

n“Is the sound blocked?” Klein muttered.

n

n

nWhatever. He continued to discharge sand.

n

n

nAfter throwing a few units of sand, Klein loosened his grip and descended freely.

n

n

nHis gaze was constantly focused on the ground below.

n

n

nIt didn’t take long before he reached the bottom.

n

n

nThe entire height of the fall was about two meters.

n

n

nAs he had been prepared, he didn’t get hurt.

n

n

nHowever, he didn’t see the sand that had been laid down earlier. Anything that was thrown past the black hole would disappear!

n

n

nThe spot where Klein stood belonged to the high platform in the third catacombs.

n

n

nIt was next to a corner of the catacombs.

n

n

nIt formed a slope.

n

n

nThe first thing Klein noticed was the treasure chest leaning against the wall.

n

n

nIt quickly slid down the slope.

n

n

nIn front of him was a bronze treasure chest.

n

n

nBronze Treasure Chest: One level higher than a wooden treasure chest. There’s a high probability of a small surprise, but there might also be a hidden danger.

n

n

nThere’s a unique blueprint inside this bronze treasure chest. There’s no danger.

n

n

nThere were two different notes.

n

n

nKlein opened the bronze treasure chest with ease after reading them.

n

n

nThere was a blueprint inside.

n

n

nSystem notification: Bronze Treasure Chest 1

n

n

nSystem notification: Bronze treasure chest can be split into 4 copper pieces. Do you wish to split it?

n

n

nSystem notification: Excellent Condenser Bluepring 1

n

n

nSystem notification: Do you wish to learn an Excellent Condenser Blueprint?

n

n

nKlein didn’t bother with the bronze treasure chest for the time being.

n

n

nThe blueprint was clearly more attractive to him.

n

n

nHe flipped through it carefully.

n

n

nThere were dense lines and patterns on the blueprint.

n

n

nIn addition, there were many unknown words.

n

n

nExcellent Water Condenser Blueprint: It belongs to daily use runic devices. Together, it can condense water vapor in the air. The efficiency isn’t bad. Every adventurer will fall in love with it.

n

n

nIn the subterranean world, the quality of tools and equipment varied. They could be classified as: ordinary, excellent, perfect, rare, epic, legendary, or divine.

n

n

nIf an item was damaged, its grade wouldn’t be displayed.

n

n

nFor example, the runic base was currently damaged, so the grade couldn’t be seen.

n

n

nOnly after it was repaired would the grade be displayed.

n

n

n“This… is a runic device?”

n

n

nKlein checked it a few times.

n

n

nThere was no such thing on the manufacturing list.

n

n

nKlein was certain that it was a good item.

n

n

nIt was just like a runic base. Just by having the word ‘runic’, it possessed a mystical ability.

n

n

n“Learn!”

n

n

nThe blueprint in Klein’s hand turned into a purple light and instantly entered his body.

n

n

nLearning successful!

n

n

nFollowing the system’s prompt, Klein silently chanted in his heart, ‘Open the manufacturing page.’

n

n

nInstantly, a row of synthesis lists appeared in front of Klein.

n

n

nHe searched for the water condenser and then automatically slid the interface to the end.

n

n

nExcellent Water Condenser: Copper 0

/4, Iron 0

/2, Wood 2

/2, Water Rune 0

/1, Fire Rune 0

/1

n

n

nOf the five synthetic materials, only wood was sufficient.

n

n

nIf the copper treasure chest was decomposed, Klein would probably be able to gather the copper.

n

n

nThe names of these two runes sound very impressive.

n

n

nKlein thought to himself.

n

n

nOn the other hand, in order to save water, he hadn’t been willing to take a sip even though his mouth was already parched.

n

n

nHowever, Klein had more important things to do, so he didn’t have the time to care about anything else.

n

n

nCopper treasure chest decomposition.

n

n

nSystem notification: Copper Block 4

n

n

nWith that, he needed to gather the other three materials for the Excellent Water Condenser.

n

n

nThe remaining two runes were definitely not easy to obtain.

n

n

nHowever, it was also possible that Klein was overthinking things.

n

n

nPerhaps the runes weren’t anything valuable.

n

n

nKlein continued digging.

n

n

nThe next two times, he chose to go forward and dig to the right.

n

n

nIn total, he obtained “4 iron blocks, 4 wood, 2 wheat bread, and 1 mineral water.”

n

n

nThe length of the tunnel was different every time he dug.

n

n

nIt varied from a few meters to dozens of meters.

n

n

nFurthermore, some of the catacombs didn’t look as simple as he had imagined.

n

n

nThey were even very troublesome.

n

n

nFrom the looks of it, Klein had to be careful in his next step.
