Chapter 26: The Treasure Chest
The next day, the three of them met in the orc territory, and after saying hello to each other, they were ready to bully the orc creeps again.
Luo Yuzhe and Lu Lanyan's guild test task was also successfully completed, and the two of them only needed to wait for a few days when the elder left to return to the North Hades Mansion and go back with him to become a member of the North Hades Mansion.
So in the past few days, the two of them and Ye Ling have discussed going to the depths of the orc territory, and they have only dealt with orc soldiers on the periphery of the orc territory before, and they have not entered it again.
After dealing with the orc soldiers in front of him, the peripheral monsters in the orc territory were basically cleaned up by the three of them.
The time for the monsters in the orc territory to refresh seems to be particularly slow, and in the past few days, Ye Ling has also seen two orc creeps refreshed.
There were no more orc creeps around, and the three of them walked into the depths.
After leaving the outskirts of the orc territory, you will come to a village where the streets are full of patrolling orc soldiers.
Ye Ling and the three of them were hiding in a dark corner.
"I'll rub, brothers, let's withdraw, my life matters." Luo Yuzhe was obviously a little scared, none of the orc soldiers here were acting alone, and the three of them definitely had no way to solve a team of orc soldiers at once.
"Didn't you suggest coming in at the beginning, why are you cowardly now?" Ye Ling dragged Luo Yuzhe, who wanted to escape, back.
"How did I know this place is so dangerous, if we are discovered, we will die, and there is a mage tower in the orc territory, and we can't use our skills." There are mage towers at intervals in the orc territory, and there are orc mages on the mage towers, although the orc mages are very blind, but the sensing of skills is still very accurate, and if Ye Ling and the three of them dare to use skills, they will be discovered immediately.
"You see, these orc minions patrol in a regular way, with a 30-second gap between one team and the next." Lu Lanyan was the calmest, and he also observed the time difference between the orc creeps patrolling.
"As long as we run to the next hidden position in this time gap, we can move forward slowly like this." Ye Ling was told by Lu Lanyan that he also understood what he thought.
"I said, brothers, what if you go forward like this, we can't beat them." Luo Yuzhe still felt that retreat was the best choice.
"Are you stupid, have you forgotten that there are treasure chests in orc territory? That's what we're for. Ye Ling knocked on Luo Yuzhe's head to remind him, and Lu Lanyan nodded in agreement.
"yes, as long as we evade their patrols, we might be able to get the treasure chests scattered in the orc territory!" Luo Yuzhe was suddenly enlightened by Ye Ling's words.
"Brothers, what are we waiting for? Whoever runs is the grandson. After thinking about it, Luo Yuzhe was very excited, and he actually encouraged Ye Ling and the others.
Ye Ling was also speechless to him, he was scared to death a second ago, but now he heard that there was a treasure chest to take, he became like this, he was really a miser.
"What's the hurry, wait for them to pass first." Lu Lanyan pressed the excited Luo Yuzhe down.
The three of them waited for the group of orc soldiers in front of them to leave, and then immediately came out of the corner and ran to the large wooden box at the intersection of the road ahead.
I don't know what so many big wooden boxes in the orc territory are used for, there is nothing in them, but it can just become a hiding place for Ye Ling and the others.
In this way, the three of them grabbed the gap in the patrol of the orc soldiers and walked slowly, still searching everywhere for where the treasure chest was.
The minutes and seconds passed.
"Because Mao hasn't seen the treasure chest yet? Isn't there no treasure chest in this orc territory? In a wooden box in a corner, Luo Yuzhe complained to the two.
"Don't worry, this place is so big that it's hard to find, be patient." Ye Ling was actually a little anxious, but he calmed down.
The three of them had been walking like this for half an hour, and they had never seen any other boxes except the large wooden box they were hiding.
It was another gap where a team of orc soldiers patrolled, and the three of Ye Ling grabbed this time and ran towards the next big wooden box.
"Look, isn't that one in front of you a treasure chest?" Lu Lanyan suddenly pointed to the white box on the ground in the center of the front and asked the two.
"That's right, get out of there and get it when their next patrol is gone." Ye Ling said and immediately hid in the big wooden box.
Luo Yuzhe and Lu Lanyan also followed Ye Ling in, and the three of them searched for so long and finally found the treasure chest of the orc territory.
After patiently waiting for the group of orc soldiers in front of them to patrol over, Ye Ling and the three of them immediately rushed towards the treasure chest.
There are only 30 seconds to go, so you have to run as fast as you can!
When Luo Yuzhe's hand touched the treasure chest, suddenly an alarm sounded around the treasure chest.
"Not good! Go back quickly. Ye Ling shouted, and immediately ran towards the wooden box where he was hiding.
Lu Lanyan also reacted, carrying Luo Yuzhe and running towards the wooden box.
At the moment when the three of them hid back in the wooden box, a dense group of orc soldiers appeared around them, all attracted by the sound of the alarm.
Ye Ling was frightened into a cold sweat, but it was good to run fast, otherwise his virgin hanging would have to be explained to these orc soldiers.
Luo Yuzhe bit his finger unwillingly, and his mouth was still broken: "What kind of bullshit treasure chest also comes with an alarm, how can we open the box like this." ”
Lu Lanyan also had a headache, and his eyebrows were about to wrinkle together.
Although the orc creeps arrived here and found that there were no suspicious humans and left, there was still no way to get the treasure inside if they didn't solve the treasure chest alarm.
The three of them fell into a brief silence.
"There it is!" Ye Ling suddenly thought of an idea, and looked at Luo Yuzhe with ill will, revealing an evil smile.
Luo Yuzhe was a little hairy by Ye Ling's view, and suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart, and asked tentatively, "Brother Ye, what did you think of?" ”
Ye Ling's idea was very simple, one person needed to be the bait to attract the orc creeps away, and the other two people would take the opportunity to steal the treasures in the treasure chest.
"I don't do it, why me." After Luo Yuzhe listened to Ye Ling's thoughts, his head shook like a rattle, and he refused to be a bait.
"Xiao Luo, you see that you are the only one of the three of us who uses a long-range weapon, and you are not slow, if you don't go to be a bait, who will be the bait?" Ye Ling followed the good path.
"Why should I use a ranged weapon as a decoy?" Luo Yuzhe still refused to be bait.
"Ranged weapons are the least risky to attract aggro, you don't need melee combat, and you know that the orc creeps will go away if they don't deal damage to them consistently." Lu Lanyan was the calmest, and immediately understood Ye Ling's intentions.
Luo Yuzhe still wanted to say something, but after thinking about Ye Ling and Lu Lanyan's words carefully, he also felt that he was the most suitable candidate.
Immediately, he stopped struggling, gritted his teeth and agreed to be bait.
After Ye Ling saw Luo Yuzhe agree, he began to talk about his plan in detail.
First of all, he first went to trigger the alarm of the treasure chest, and then after the orc soldiers were attracted by the alarm sound, Luo Yuzhe came out to lure the orc soldiers away, and Ye Ling and Lu Lanyan took advantage of the time when the orc soldiers were lured away to open the treasure chest and steal the treasure.
"Do you get it?" Ye Ling asked again uneasily, and Lu Lanyan's Luo Yuzhe nodded to indicate that he had no problem.
"Okay, let's go!" Ye Ling also stopped inking, and took advantage of the gap in the patrol of the orc soldiers to rush directly towards the treasure chest.
The moment Ye Ling's hand touched the treasure chest, the alarm sounded again, and the orc soldiers were attracted by the alarm again.
Ye Ling ran to the wooden box, and when he got closer, he hurriedly turned over and hid in the wooden box.
At least 30 orc creeps were attracted by the alarms from the chest, and by the time they were all gathered there.
Luo Yuzhe jumped out of the wooden box, picked up the longbow in his hand and shot arrows at the orc soldiers.
The orc soldiers were immediately enraged by Luo Yuzhe's attack, and they all picked up the weapons in their hands and rushed towards Luo Yuzhe.
Luo Yuzhe looked at the orc soldiers rushing towards him, greeted Ye Ling's whole family in his heart, and immediately turned around and ran.
As he ran, he turned back and fired cold arrows at the orc creeps, so as not to let them lose their hatred.
After the orc soldiers had run away, Ye Ling and Lu Lanyan came out of the wooden box.
"Hurry up!" Ye Ling whispered to Lu Lanyan, and immediately rushed towards the treasure chest.
The Dust Continent is divided into locked and unlocked treasure chests, unlocked treasure chests can be opened casually, and locked treasure chests can only be opened by lockpicking skills unless you have a matching key.
Anyone can learn lock-picking skills, as long as they pay the tuition fee of 1 gold coin to the soul master, Ye Ling had learned lock-picking skills as early as when he was in Luolong City.
The treasure chest in front of him is a platinum-level treasure chest, Ye Ling's current lock-picking skill level can barely be opened, but no one can disturb him halfway, otherwise the lock-picking will fail, fortunately, the lock-picking skill has no magic fluctuations, and the orc mage can't sense it.
In an instant, Ye Ling arrived in front of the treasure chest, and immediately used the lock-picking skill on the treasure chest.
The treasure chest emitted a piercing alarm again, but this time the orc creeps around were attracted away by Luo Yuzhe, and the alarm sound did not attract any orc creeps.

Lu Lanyan looked around vigilantly, guarding Ye Ling's side.
It took 5 minutes for Ye Ling to completely open the treasure chest, and in these 5 minutes, he was afraid that some orc soldiers patrolling from other places would appear, so Lu Lanyan's mission was to protect Ye Ling from being interrupted.

As time passed, sweat droplets gradually appeared on Ye Ling's forehead.
60% unlocking degree............
80% unlocking............
It's already 80 percent, as long as you give Ye Ling another 1 minute to successfully open the treasure chest!
Unfortunately, the reality was not so rosy, and a group of patrolling orc soldiers suddenly appeared in the field of vision ahead.
