A short distance further on, I will be at my destination. But it's not early, and it is estimated that the system warning for the safety cabin will sound soon.

I found a narrow cave, went inside, unloaded the supplies from the lizard's back, and fed it food and water. The narrow entrance to the cave was enough to prevent some large monsters from breaking in, and I hung a fishing net at the entrance to keep out small but equally dangerous monsters, such as the Chicken Snakemon. It was a magical beast with the head and body of a rooster, bat wings, and the long tail of a lizard, and was about the size of a turkey.

Although the riding lizard has been domesticated as a mount since childhood, it is an extremely ferocious carnivorous beast in its own right, so it is best to have it as a guard for the vigilance. When I went offline, I also activated my simulated intelligence to take over the character, and set that if the character was threatened by an external threat after I went offline, it would be the first consideration to protect himself.

Because it's impossible for players to stay in the game 24 hours a day, players can choose to have the analog intelligence take over the characters in the game when they go offline. Everyone's simulated intelligence is not the same, as it can be said to be a development program that varies according to the player's experience and behavior patterns in the game. If you are a beginner to the game, his simulated intelligence is very mechanical and passive. Players who often fight in the game are also good at fighting, and will fight according to the player's usual combat style. Players with little or no combat will have a dull and clumsy simulation intelligence when fighting. In addition, it is also possible to set the combat method, and if a player who usually likes to attack bravely in the game, like me, to protect himself as the first consideration, then the simulation intelligence will tend to be defensive when fighting.

Even if the simulation intelligence can't deal with various states as flexibly as myself, and the combat ability to control the game characters is bound to be inferior to my own, it should not be worse than the average NPC. A ferocious carnivorous monitor lizard and a heavily armed level 5 Dark Elf warrior are enough to take on any small number of incoming monsters, well, the less powerful ones, of course......

In addition to protecting itself after the player goes offline, the simulation intelligence is also limited. Only the single action that the player was doing before going offline can be executed. For example, if my character is meditating when I go offline, and the Dark Elf only needs to meditate for 4 hours a day, then after 4 hours of meditation, my character will just stay in place until the character is attacked and defends itself or I re-enter the game.

When the player re-enters the game, they can quickly view the recording of the simulated intelligence, and can see what happened while they were away, but this is recorded through the eyes and ears of the game character, which means that nothing is recorded when the game character is sleeping or what they do not notice.

Even if the player leaves the game for a long time, the character will not die of hunger and thirst, but the abilities will still be affected, such as the health will continue to decrease until the lowest. After re-entering the game, the player must eat and drink for a short period of time, or they will die of hunger and thirst.

The above premise is what I learned on the official forums before.

When I re-entered the game the next day, everything was fine.

Put away the fishing nets for prevention and put the supplies back on the back of the lizard. I set off again.

Soon, I was at my destination, a great vault, as told by the Lockthroat.

The vault is a massive cavern that will upend the perception of the word cave by any surface race.

A typical vault spans 2 to 4 li and is 1 li high, while some can stretch more than 50 li and reach 5 to 6 li in height. Larger vaults often have huge pillars – these natural stone piers rise high and support the top of the vault. Some were formed by the squeezing of unimaginably large land plates at the origin of time, others were the result of the innate magic of the Dark Lands, but either way, the Dome is a miniature world with its own streams, lakes, hills, and highlands.

The vault is usually a very suitable territory, as it has plenty of space and resources to sustain a jungle of giant fungi, mosses, and other strange plants. By the standards of the Dark Regions, most of the vaults are teeming with life, so it's not surprising that there are many of the most powerful settlements in the vaults.

However, the vault where I am now is an area that lacks sufficient resources and life. Therefore, it is a living area where creatures can survive in almost any environment and have strong vitality. I'm here for them.

I drove the lizard riders and scouted the surroundings.

The rider uses shadows or other obstacles to hide itself, and runs quickly and silently.

I have relied on my ability to sense danger in advance and the long-range dark vision of the dark elves, and I have spotted several groups of such tall and dangerous creatures, and there are also two dozen places where they suspect to be their lair. But I could only watch from afar, and I didn't dare to get too close. Because these creatures are not only known for their strong life force, savage and cruel nature, and audacity and conceit that do not care about any attack, but also have a keen sense of smell. I don't want them to miss out on it.

Well, as I've heard, this is indeed a colony of these creatures, and there are more of them than I expected. In fact, perhaps because of their sheer numbers, I didn't find any other animate creatures living in this vault, as they were also known for their appetites and lack of pickiness about their food. I couldn't help but worry a little about whether I would be able to accomplish a project that even I thought was a little crazy.

I found a huge cave that opened diagonally upwards, which meant that the further you went inside, the higher the terrain became. The innermost part of the slope suddenly becomes very steep.

"God help me!" I couldn't help but exclaim. The topography here could not be more ideal.

He took out a miner's pickaxe and barely cleared a flat field on the top steep slope. I took the bucket on the lizard's back that had been bought up in a few shops, and the things that were going to play the most important role in my plan, and placed them on the flat ground. It is a large keg, and the gaps used are sealed with wax to prevent the contents from leaking out.

I opened my backpack again and placed a few more small flat bottles in the waist pocket.

Everything is ready, now it's time to get out and do some shopping.
