Damn it, this boss really has no normal skills.

Chapter 31 Clues to the closed beta site

However, no matter how lucrative this side mission is, it will be a month later at the earliest to trigger it.

Maybe it's suitable for leveling up before players arrive, but for Ji Ming now, this is a piece of cake that he can't eat.

If you can't eat it, then you should pretend it doesn't exist.

Putting the branch plot aside for the time being, Ji Ming decided to greet the protagonist of this plot first.

"No matter how useful potions are, the foundation of all health ultimately lies in the body itself."

He smiled and handed the piece of honey bread that he had not opened to Adele.

"Take it and eat it. You can increase your food intake in the past few days, no problem."

Adele subconsciously wanted to refuse, but looking at the hand that was wrapped in a white glove and becoming thinner, she finally took it.

"Thank you, doctor."

It's okay. Just remember to save me when I'm being chased and slashed in the future.

After silently saying this in his heart, Ji Ming stood up decently and calmly and left the fire.

Returning to the stone where he was sitting before, he waited until Adele's twinkling eyes moved away before quietly loosening his collar.

Gan, if I had known I would not wear this robe, I almost fainted from the heat of the campfire just now...

After lunch, I finished the formal dialogue with the last character in the team.

Ji Ming suddenly found that he, who worked so hard every day as 007, finally seemed to have some precious time to fish.

Fishing, fishing is good.

He moved his neck to dissipate heat while leisurely observing his surroundings.

Perhaps because of his [Grave Digging Technique], he, who was already considered a semi-professional, quickly shifted his attention from the people to the cave.

Speaking of which, the structure of this cave is actually quite beautiful.

The entrance is rounded and the interior is spacious. There are no stone pillars that obstruct the view, but it is sturdy enough because there are mostly rock walls around it.

If a gate is installed at the entrance of the cave, it will be the best secret warehouse.

If a hole is drilled on the top of the mountain, it will be a natural furnace.

If you look at the nearby woods and streams, you can see that the mountains and water here complement each other, which can be called the harmony of yin and yang, and the five elements are unobstructed. It is also a rare yin house.

Ji Ming had to marvel at the uncanny craftsmanship of nature.

With a little repair, this place can be turned into a perfect tomb.

It would be a pity not to bury a prince, noble, prince, princess or something like that, but to criticize the extravagance and lust of the aristocratic class in the old society.

For example, here, the concave arc is so beautiful. If we put a gold coffin and silver coffin here, it would be...

Ok?
Ji Ming frowned and noticed something strange about this cave.

He calmly picked up the shovel, pretended to be looking for centipedes, and approached the nearest cave wall.

With the light of the bonfire in the distance, he focused his gaze and finally saw the lines on it clearly.

On the hard rock, there are rough but absolutely neat arcs.

Could this thing... be innate?
Following this line of thinking, he soon discovered more things that were wrong in this cave.

From shallow to deep, although it has been polished a lot by the years, there are clearly traces of man-made everywhere here.

It wasn't until he reached the deepest part of the cave and stood in front of a tall rock wall that he finally confirmed his suspicion.

Because under his feet appeared half a broken floor tile, with a vague but obviously relief sculpture of a knight engraved on it.

Observe, touch, speculate, ponder.

He walked from left to right, and from right to left.

He even tapped the rocks and soil in front of him with his shovel, and then lay down to examine it carefully for a moment.

Finally came to an exciting conclusion
——In the depths of this cave, there is clearly a ruin that was buried by the collapse of the mountain!Is it a dungeon where countless demihuman spirits live?
Or a big tomb where endless dead souls are buried?

Or an ancient imperial fortress filled with various elemental creatures and heroic spirits?

One guess after another popped up in his mind.

but no matter.

Hidden, wide, and filled with monsters.

This is definitely a place suitable for closed beta testing!

Well, the only question now is...

After taking a sip of the cold coffee, Ji Ming typed out a question.

[Good morning, if I find a suitable closed beta site, but there are probably monsters in it that I can't deal with, will you provide any help? 】

The little boss Yang Yue is still reliable and can reply in seconds.

[Please don’t worry, the system and I will provide you with complete services]

[According to Article 114 of the "Fourth Natural Disaster Plan"]

[The moment you step into and confirm that a piece of land is a beta test site, you will become the "owner" of this land under the influence of the system]

[Automatic possession includes but is not limited to the following powers: obtaining information about all monsters in the field, transmitting information within the venue at will, and changing the architectural form and decoration...]

[Reminder: After completing the closed beta test site confirmation, the system will issue you a [Any Character Resurrection Card]. Please give priority to the corpse of a strong person for resurrection to facilitate subsequent operations]

In a nutshell...

As long as you know the right place, you can pick out the weak ones first. If you can't beat them, you can run away at any time. If it doesn't work, can you still ask the thugs to clear the place?

"Wonderful!"

Having made up his mind, he returned to the team as if nothing had happened, carrying a bag with a slight gain.

It's difficult to operate now that there are so many people and it's difficult to operate. It's better to sneak over and dig alone later.

"Doctor, you are too hardworking."

Stone had long noticed Ji Ming running around, but he had never been embarrassed to say anything.

Unexpectedly, he was actually looking for centipedes and lizards everywhere, and he was still digging three feet into the ground with a shovel!

"Haha, just to supplement the family income."

Ji Ming also knew that he was watching, so he exposed it lightly.

Everyone rested for a while, and then Old Boer walked in.

"It's time to go. When we get back to the city, we still have to sell things."

So the fire was extinguished, the adventurers packed up and set off on their journey again.

"Go this way, there is a faster and safer way."

Old Bol had already reidentified the direction before, and following his guidance, the team embarked on a new forest road.

After winding down the mountain, the team came to a valley full of wild fruits.

Who would refuse the sweet and sour fruits hanging on the branches?Everyone picked off a few as snacks.

Homecoming is as fast as an arrow. Although the journey is peaceful, it is also boring.

Stone also picked one up and took a bite. He swallowed it with a groan, then touched his stubble and smiled.

"Is it because of the presence of the doctor? This should be the safest one among our many adventures."

"This huge valley, with fruit trees all over the mountains and plains, is so peaceful and quiet. Why don't there even be any adventurers?"
