After the trade ended, Fatty looked at the three of them happily. “I didn’t expect it to be so easy to sell. I exchanged it for a lot of money. We can buy some Golden Creation medicine later.” Previously, he had been using Golden Creation as he killed monsters. Now, he had used up all the Golden Creation in his backpack.
The three of them had long been convinced by his sales methods. His lavish speech made these newbies overjoyed and they generously paid the bill.
Lin Shuang looked at him meaningfully. “To be honest, Fatty, it’s a pity that you’re not doing sales!”
Seeing him tease him, Fatty frowned slightly. “Stop teasing me. Let’s hurry up and exchange for the Golden Creation Medicine. We’ll set off for Lingfan City early.”
With that, the four of them quickly arrived at a nearby shop and exchanged for some Golden Creation Medicine.
Lin Shuang bought some Golden Creation and realized that the March Pills Wang Youchun had sold him were really excellent treasures. Before long, they set off for Lingfan City. On the way, Chu Feng followed Lin Shuang like a fanboy. At the same time, he learned that they had established the Tiger Studio and was immediately interested. “Master, can I join your studio too?”
His lackey look surprised Lu Wan, but she only watched silently.
“Sure, but we’ll have to talk about this later. We met the Boss.” Lin Shuang narrowed his eyes and looked at the forest in front of him. The surroundings were filled with a strange aura, and the trees here were especially lush.
Fatty looked at him in confusion. “There’s not even a small monster here. How can there be a Boss?” Could it be that he was too vigilant and mistakenly thought that there was a Boss here?
Lin Shuang gestured for everyone to be quiet. The three of them immediately fell silent and hid behind him. At this moment, he pointed at the cave not far away. The three of them immediately focused their attention there.
“Look carefully. Don’t you think this cave is too abrupt?”
Hearing this, the three of them sized him up carefully and indeed saw a problem.
“That’s right. This cave is gloomy. I keep feeling uncomfortable.” Lu Wan frowned, feeling a little uncomfortable with this cave.
“I don’t think that this cave is gloomy, but there is some equipment at the entrance of the cave. They’re all Green and White equipment, but why did it fall there?”
There were no treasure chests there, so it was impossible for equipment to appear for no reason. The fact that it could drop equipment proved that a fierce battle must have happened there.
Lin Shuang continued, “Besides, don’t you think it’s strange? Why don’t passersby pick up the equipment that dropped?”
Most of the players in the game were low-end players. If they saw these equipment, they would definitely pick them up. Even if they did not use them, they would definitely find an opportunity to sell them. But why was the equipment still there?
Chu Feng, who had been silent the entire time, immediately understood what Lin Shuang meant. “I understand. It’s not that no one picked up the equipment, but that the people who picked up the equipment are all dead. That’s why there’s so much equipment there!”
Hearing this, everyone’s expressions changed and they became nervous. They gripped the weapon in their hands tightly, and recalled that there was no one around and immediately felt that Lin Shuang’s words made sense. Perhaps they had really encountered a Boss, and it was an especially powerful Boss.
Lu Wan hesitated for a moment before saying, “Then let’s hurry up and leave, lest we lose our lives after being attacked by the Boss.” When she encountered the Boss, Lu Wan’s first reaction was to escape with everyone.
Lu Wan looked at the three people beside her and planned to escape together. However, the three of them were actually staring intently at the cave. She even saw a trace of joy in Lin Shuang’s eyes. Could it be that they didn’t intend to leave and wanted to fight the Boss instead?
“This is a very good opportunity. It’s very difficult for us to obtain more high-quality equipment when we encounter ordinary monsters.
Lin Shuang did not intend to retreat with them. Previously, he had already killed the Orange Boss. This was at most a Purple Boss. What was there to be afraid of? “If I’m not wrong, there should be a Purple Boss here. As long as we kill the Boss, we can easily obtain equipment and level up.”
Not only did a team have to rely on a powerful captain to guide them in the right direction, but they also had to rely on their teammates to constantly improve themselves.
“Although our levels are different, we still have to team up to fight monsters. We have to take this opportunity to increase our teamwork and ensure that we can always be in the lead.”
This was a good opportunity for combat. He did not intend to give up.
Fatty thought for a moment and nodded in agreement. “That’s right. It’s a little difficult for the two of us to cooperate at the beginning. Moreover, there’s another person in the team this time. We can only adjust through actual combat. It can also increase the tacit understanding of our entire team.”
Not only could they obtain equipment and experience, but they could also increase the team’s tacit understanding. How could he let go of such a good thing that killed two birds with one stone?
The four of them reached an agreement and strode into the cave. The cave was dark inside. They felt a cold aura from inside when they stood at the entrance of the cave.
Fortunately, Lin Shuang had enough torches in his backpack. He lit the four torches and handed them to the remaining three people. He took the initiative to stand in front of the team and lead the way.
The cave was very airtight, which meant that the interior was sealed. After walking into the cave, they could smell a pungent rotting smell. Lu Wan pinched her nose and continued forward.
Not long after, they saw a lot of equipment scattered on the ground. However, these equipment were not valuable to them. Lin Shuang did not let these low-level equipment occupy his backpack. On the other hand, Fatty, who was greedy for money, stuffed all this equipment into his backpack without any explanation.
“How strange. Why are there only these equipment on the ground and no corpses? Does this Boss like to swallow them in one bite?” Fatty was a little puzzled. Logically speaking, they should have seen the corpse.
Glory was a game with extremely high freedom. At the same time, it was extremely realistic. If the players here died, they would definitely leave behind corpses.
Lin Shuang shook his head. He looked at the marks on the ground and looked around. Soon, he came to a conclusion.
“If this Boss can swallow them in one bite, it will have a very huge body. However, look, there are no footprints on the ground, and the soil here is moist and soft. We left footprints wherever we went.
The three of them raised the torches in their hands and shone them on the ground. Sure enough, they saw the footprints they had left on the ground, as well as the footprints of others. Most of the footprints were heading inside, but none were running out.
At the place where Fatty picked up the equipment, they only saw some messy footprints. Perhaps it was because it had been a long time, so these footprints were a little unclear.
“Then what should we do? We don’t have a clue at all.” Lu Wan’s heart beat faster. For some reason, this cave gave her a very strange aura. She felt that this place was too dangerous.
