There's a skull dungeon attached to my basement

Just as Xiao Yang was digging away at the mine, suddenly, a communication from the God's Game interrupted his movements.

It was Red Beard, who sent a message to Xiao Yang.

【Red Beard: Little brother Xiao Yang, I'm back from the abyss! When are you coming to the All Heavens Trading Zone? This time, your big brother has gotten some really good stuff, definitely going to blow your mind!】

A hint of joy appeared on Xiao Yang's face when this message popped up.

Red Beard came back early, which was a good thing, as he could ask about the Tier 10 advancement.

The All Heavens Trade Day was tomorrow, and he owed Red Beard a big favor, so now was a good opportunity to show his big brother something impressive.

Xiao Yang had made a killing in this gemstone mine, and one of the rubies that looked like burning flames was perfect as a gift.

Thinking this, Xiao Yang replied.

【Xiao Yang: Tomorrow, Big Brother Red Beard!】

After clicking send, the money-grubbing God's Game once again squeezed nearly ten thousand spirit coins out of Xiao Yang.

It was getting to the point where he couldn't even afford to chat. Xiao Yang realized that he only had a little over ten thousand spirit coins left, barely enough for the next All Heavens Trade Zone teleportation and ticket. But it wasn't a big problem. Thinking about the pile of miscellaneous items in his backpack, and the large batch of various gemstones he had just acquired, Xiao Yang felt that he would completely escape poverty in this All Heavens Trade Zone.

Xiao Yang was full of confidence. He stopped his actions and suddenly hugged Little Bone beside him, vigorously rubbing its head.

"Little Bone, we'll be rich soon! When the time comes, I'll take you out of the dungeon to have a look around!"

Xiao Yang didn't have any suitable tools. He could only rely on the Righteous Comfort in his hand to pry at the loosened rock layers. Large pieces of ore were pried off by Xiao Yang. If he was lucky, he could see one or two gemstones embedded in the rock wall.

Little Bone was squatting on the ground, searching for any remaining gemstones in the rock fragments that Xiao Yang had pried off. It was doing well, but suddenly it was hugged by Xiao Yang and vigorously rubbed, making it unsure whether it was shy or terrified. It disappeared into the shadows without a trace.

Xiao Yang laughed at this situation.

"No more digging!"

He didn't come to the dungeon just to mine. After digging for a good half day, he felt a little dazed. This gemstone mine was much richer than he thought. Even with such random digging, there were still gains.

But it was too boring. He should see if Red Beard could sell some proper mining tools.

He still had about half of the gemstones on those gemstone bugs that he hadn't pried off. However, Xiao Yang had now found a way to subdue these damn gemstone bugs. As long as he flipped them over and weighed them down with stones, then even if they completed their charging, they would be completely unable to turn over, and could only wiggle their legs helplessly.

The gemstone mine was temporarily safe. Without the threat of the gemstone bugs, the cave fishmen would not approach this overly bright gemstone mine.

To be honest, Xiao Yang had been working too hard these seven days and hadn't had a proper sleep.

With his various attributes getting higher and higher, Xiao Yang's ability to stay up late had also improved greatly. He was still in good shape after staying up for five or six days in a row, but he had accumulated some fatigue after all. Once he relaxed, the feeling of drowsiness surged up.

Holding the Righteous Comfort in his hand, Xiao Yang found a flat place in the gemstone mine to sit down. Leaning against the sharp, cold rock wall, Xiao Yang fell into a deep sleep.

Soon after, Little Bone reappeared from the shadows. This little guy consciously began to guard Xiao Yang.

Of course, some interesting things happened during this period, such as Little Bone arguing with the gemstone bugs.

The largest red gemstone bug completed its charging and exited its gemstone state, waving its legs and struggling to turn over, but it failed. It immediately became anxious and began to make hissing sounds, seemingly wanting to call other gemstone bugs over to help.

But the other gemstone bugs were also flipped over by Xiao Yang and couldn't turn over. For a time, hissing sounds rose and fell one after another. This alarmed Little Bone, who was guarding Xiao Yang. Little Bone was very dissatisfied with the noise made by these gemstone bugs. The soul fire in its eye sockets flickered, and it began to respond to these gemstone bugs with the rattling sound of its bones colliding.

【Heart of Life

Quality: Epic

Type: Oddity, Material

Effect: Increases maximum health by one hundred points.

Introduction: Kid, you wouldn't know what that poor gemstone bug went through. It actually lost the argument!】

So what exactly happened while he was sleeping? This was Xiao Yang's first reaction after picking up this Heart of Life. The second reaction was that these gemstone bugs could actually produce epic-level oddities.

Xiao Yang did not hesitate to equip himself with this Heart of Life. His health jumped from two hundred to three hundred, an increase of nearly one-half, greatly improving his sense of security.

But even now, Xiao Yang still didn't know, couldn't figure out what happened last night, but it wasn't a big problem.

For this group of gemstone bugs that revealed more of their value, looking at their dejected appearance, Xiao Yang decided to treat them even better. He decided to put these beautiful and cute little bugs down so they could happily crawl around in this gemstone mine a few more times.

This way, perhaps they could produce more good things for Xiao Yang.

The moment he put down these gemstone bugs, at the moment when the largest red gemstone bug turned over, almost without any pause, even with resentment, the colorful beams shot towards Xiao Yang.

The familiar scene appeared again. Xiao Yang rolled and crawled around frantically, screaming as he was shot.

It has to be said that Xiao Yang's experience in the dungeon was quite chaotic.

Back in the real world, the New Year would be here soon. He didn't know if Xiao Yang could climb out of the dungeon before the New Year this year.
