Chapter 18: The Underground Cavern
Chen Ming did a "lot" in the process of helping Jerry and Farrell kill the demon before, in this world, if you want to share the demon energy, you must attack that demon at the same time and hit at least one attack, and finally distribute the demon energy according to the amount of damage caused.

And since Chen Ming lied about his rank at that time, and out of the need to hide his strength, of course he couldn't perform too well in battle!
Either he almost swept Jerry or Farrell with his heavy mace, or he attracted the rest of the wandering monsters while dodging the demon's attack, which made Jerry and Farrell really frightened.
As a last resort, when the two of them were about to reach level 5, they gave up asking Chen Ming to help.
At this time, Jerry and Farrell had both reached level 5, and they were trying to help Chen Ming improve.
Because of Chen Ming's poor performance earlier, Jerry and Farrell were worried that the rest of the Whirlwind family would find out about the fact that they had killed the third child, and in the original intention of improving efficiency, the two decided to let Chen Ming rest on the sidelines, and the two of them would serve as free coolies for the hateful boy, and he would ...... All you need to do is throw a weapon from the sidelines to meet the basic conditions for distributing demonic energy.
That's what happened now.
Jerry stabbed into the thigh of the fallen Rogue gunman in front of him, looking at Chen Ming who was leisurely wandering in the distance, he couldn't help but itch his teeth with hatred, he spat on the ground, and said to Farrell hatefully: "That stinky boy, wait until you get to the cave, let him look good!" If it weren't for you and me, time was ......"
Farrell's face was also blue, he reluctantly put on a smiling face, walked into Chen Ming and said, "Brother Dawson! Farrell and I felt that the demonic energy was about to fill our bodies again! You should have broken through too, right? ā
Chen Ming touched the back of his head with a humble face, and said happily: "Yes! Just now I felt the overflowing energy transform my body, and it was a wonderful experience! Thank you so much, big brothers! Don't worry, I've strengthened my agility this time, and when I get to that cave, I'm sure I'll be able to give the two big brothers a lot of energy! ā
Seeing that the two of them breathed a sigh of relief, Chen Ming was secretly refreshed in his heart!
In the past, he said that he helped the two of them improve their cultivation, but he was actually constantly observing the attack methods of the fallen Rogue scimitar and pikemen, and at the same time, his current body skills are more sophisticated.
In order to train one person to face multiple monsters, he deliberately made several mistakes to provoke wandering monsters.
At this moment, Chen Ming was already confident that he could walk around under the attack of 6 fallen rogers.
Glancing at more than half of his level 5 experience points again, Chen Ming looked at his attributes again.
Chen Ming (Dawson)
Level: 5
Strength: 3
Dexterity: 2.7
Constitution: 2
Intelligence:1
XP: 3100/6300"
He chose to strengthen his strength in the last breakthrough choice, and now he throws the mace again, and he obviously feels much more relaxed!
After thanking Jerry and Farrell again, he offered to leave after a short rest, which made Jerry and the others breathe a sigh of relief.
---------------------------------------------
"Whew...... The location of this cave is really dangerous, there are three teams of fallen rog at the entrance of the cave alone, and I don't know how long no one has been here! But it's even better! ā
Chen Ming remembered something at this moment, and asked Jerry, "Brother Jerry, is this ...... This remnant world must have existed for a long time, right? Has it been so long that no one has discovered the mystery of this cave? Also, if a demon boss like the Blood Bird is killed first...... What about the other adventurers, who can't pass the trial? ā
Jerry smiled slightly and said, "Brother Dawson, you don't know about this, this afterimage world was actually created by several archmages of the human race, including Lord Akara!" The purpose of creating the Remnant World is to allow the children of human beings to continue to undergo trials and absorb the fresh blood to fight against demons. So the demonic monsters here are just imitations that are constantly spawned by a few adults with demon cores! Of course, they appear in a constant stream of energy, and of course special monsters like blood birds will reappear more slowly, so ...... If you follow Jason and them to the place of bones at this time, it is estimated that you will not go to see the blood birds, but to see the sea of people. If you want me to say, what's the use of rushing to complete the trial? Isn't it just a little family reward, how can your own life be important? ā
Jerry paused, and then said, "In addition, such a trial is about once every 5 years, and each time a different family is stationed in the afterimage world, for the sake of fairness, the family must be constantly rotated. Adventurers like you and me who already have a family belong don't matter. However, the representatives of the families stationed here mainly want to recruit those excellent adventurers who do not belong to the family. Of course, even though it's an afterimage world, if you die, ......"
At this, Jerry let out a "hehe" laugh as if he remembered something happy.
Finally, Jerry coughed twice and said, "The coordinates of this cave are usually only known to family members like us, and this round of trials has just begun, and I believe we are the first adventurers to come to this cave!" Don't worry, the three of us will definitely get that treasure! ā
Under Jerry's explanation, Chen Ming's understanding of the world has deepened.
After the three of them eliminated the three teams of demons at the entrance of the cave, they stepped into the cave!
"Be careful, this cavern starts with a steep downward slope, etc."
Because it was too dark in the cave, Chen Ming could only see the two people in front of him, and when he was hesitating, he saw that the surroundings suddenly lit up!
Out of nowhere, Farrell took out a tattered cloth garment and draped it over his body, and a dazzling light emanated from the tattered cloth robe, illuminating the slope in front of him and the surrounding walls.
Chen Ming asked with a surprised face, "Is this ......?" ā
Farrell said proudly: "Haha, I took off the cloth on it in curiosity after killing the "Corpse Flame", but I didn't expect this cloth to increase the illumination range by 3 points! Although it has no defense, its auxiliary treasure hunting ability is amazing! ā
Jerry, who was beside him, echoed with a smile, and said secretly in his heart: This Farrell can really lie quietly...... This is obviously specially prepared by the elders of the clan for the third child, just to help him explore this cave, "the corpse is on fire", haha.
Chen Ming's face was surprised, and he felt even more worthless in his heart for the fact that his consciousness had been eroded by the evil force before.
With the help of this magical cloth coat, the three of them can finally see their surroundings clearly.
After the three of them went deep into the ground, they finally became flat and no longer had a downward slope.
Jerry and Chen Ming looked at each other and said, "This cave seems to be built by man, look at the ground ......."
Chen Ming had the same idea in his heart.
At that moment, there was a strange sound ahead, like the collision of people's teeth chattering, and it was a little chaotic.
And Chen Ming and the three of them glanced at each other and made a silent gesture to each other, it was a demon!
Sure enough, the three of them walked forward slowly, and when they stretched out their heads, they saw four golden skeletons around the corner!
They held a short axe in one hand, and a rusty iron shield with several long arrows scattered in the other.
At this time, the skeleton didn't seem to notice the arrival of the three uninvited guests, and was wandering around aimlessly.
I saw them bend down from time to time and make a "click" sound.
Eventually, one of the skeletons seemed to notice something strange in the distance, and it swayed towards the place where the unusual light was shining.
Unexpectedly, as soon as it walked around that corner, three weapons immediately stretched out from three angles in front of it.
Before the skeleton could react, it became a pile of skeletons scattered on the ground.
Jerry looked at the broken bone frame on the ground, and said to Chen Ming and Farrell: "It seems that this monster is not very strong, let's take the initiative to attack before those three skeletons can react, and take them by surprise!" ā
Chen Ming and the others were naturally indispensable, and Chen Ming had already noticed the monster message from the chip earlier.
"Skeleton (Afterimage)
Level: 2
A fierce undead warrior whose skeletal body no longer craves the target's body, but only aims to destroy the target's life. With their skeleton appearance, ruthless personality, faster movement speed than zombies, and demonstrated a talent for mastering weapons, these skeleton-like undead creatures can use swords, axes, bows, and even armor and shields, and even more terrifyingly, some of them have mastered magic skills, proving that undead creatures can also learn magic. The skeleton warrior in front of him is only the lowest level of skeletons.
Weakness: Whole body
Watch out for its axe! ā
Judging from the weakness diagram of the skeletons that were killed just now, the physical strength of these skeleton warriors is not as strong as that of level 1 zombies, but they are faster and hold weapons.
But that's ...... for your 2.7 agility
In any case, learning about the attack and defense habits of a new monster when encountering it is a good habit that Chen Ming has developed since coming to this world.
Moreover, at the moment, he still had the idea of not showing his strength, so in the next battle with the skeleton, he did not aim to kill monsters quickly.
Finally, Jerry and Farrell's grumbling voices rang out.
"Brother Dawson...... You're too slow, aren't you? We solved this broken skeleton early, they are not much stronger than zombies, as a level 4 adventurer, why haven't you solved it yet!? ā
