Chapter 19: Avoiding the King of Tongues
Wang Yonghao looked at the hole where the voice came from, but he had no intention of exploring it immediately.
Because when he actually went down to this temporary camp, he understood why these people had set up a temporary camp here.
The pit is not as simple as it appears in the game, but it has two paths that go down in both directions, left and right, and is a center point that surrounds the area.
Around the perimeter of this camp, there are eight roads.
The road where the roar of the King of the Tongue was heard was the one on the left, and if it was calculated according to the direction, it should be a road in the direction of ten o'clock.
Wang Yonghao obviously didn't want to touch the tongue king's brow directly, he still had a bunch of boxes to open.
He picked up the big sword on the door panel with the corpses of the five tongue-sticking babies again, kicked the corpse down with his foot, and used the sword to pry open the lids of the boxes stacked in front of him.
At the top is a metal box with only 16 compartments.
But when Wang Yonghao pried it open, he found something amazing.
That's a [Manipulator Model]!
With the addition of the two that I got from the guy who picked up the corpse earlier, it's just enough to make up three [Manipulator Models].
You must know that the simplest upgrade of this manipulator in Wang Yonghao's hand is the upgrade of the position of this expansion slot, which requires three [manipulator models].
As mentioned earlier, this material handling unit is subdivided into four major units, the material handling unit, the engine, the lens and the expansion slot.
There are also three upgrade units in the expansion slot, the first of which is that it can be used to collect liquids in Excavator mode.
And it is this expansion slot that Wang Yonghao wants to upgrade.
Wang Yonghao almost didn't hesitate at all, and brought back the little Ying who had just eaten and drunk enough, and his body was one size bigger.
"You're guarding me!"
After speaking, he pressed the three [manipulator models] to the position on the lower edge of the material manipulator in his hand.
A flash of golden brilliance that seemed to be black technology flashed, and the three manipulator models disappeared.
And the matter manipulator in his hand has a special interface, the interface is a square green cursor, and there is a small dot in the center.
Wang Yonghao was a little eager to try this function, and there happened to be a small puddle near the uneven camp, and the water on the stones on it was dripping down from nowhere.
Near this puddle, he chose the new function of this expansion tide and pulled the trigger on the puddle.
A blue laser pulls to the surface of the water, and the surface of the water drops rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Soon, this puddle, which was only about two cubic meters, was pumped clean, and Wang Yonghao had an extra 300 units of water in his backpack.
The illustrated book of these waters clearly reads: some cool, clean water.
After Wang Yonghao's freshness, he turned around and went to the large pile of boxes and continued to open the boxes!
Stacked under the metal box was a sixteen-compartment wooden crate, Wang Yonghao didn't have much hope, and pried it open, only to find that there was still only one thing inside.
And this kind of thing is very interesting to Wang Yonghao, it is a knife!
It is a poison blade with 8.9 damage per swing, 1.3 attack speed, and poison damage that inflicts poison on the target.
It is a long knife that is no shorter than a broken broadsword, with a thick-backed single-edged blade, and a front edge similar to that of a Spartan one-handed knife.
There was a dark green gem in the center of the dark green gauntlet, and it seemed that the poisonous properties were caused by this gem and the red skull on the weight ball of the handle.
He immediately replaced the Broken Broadsword with the Broken Broadsword, and stored the Broken Broadsword in his backpack that had previously provided him with a lot of lethality.
I took the knife and continued to open the box, but I didn't get anything very good in this place.
Three Molotov cocktails like the artifacts of the Cocktail cultists in the world of Terraria are the best catch.
Everything else is just plasters, bandages, darts, spears, and the like.
The three Molotov cocktails looked like bottles of snow beer, with a piece of cotton wool stuck in them, and the cloudy liquid in the bottles, Wang Yonghao was not sure whether it was gasoline or wine.
In short, in his opinion, these three things may play an important role in one place.
got a new big knife and three powerful Molotov cocktails, Wang Yonghao really wanted to go directly to meet this tongue king for a while.
But intellectually speaking, he couldn't go directly, because in his impression, the entire mining area should be the final boss, and he wanted to save him for last.
So, after a rigorous selection of "ordering soldiers and generals, and ...... whoever is pointed", Wang Yonghao walked towards the passage in the direction of three o'clock.
Perhaps, in his opinion, this choice is very reasonable.
Reasonable and unreasonable, put it aside first, Wang Yonghao is really good on this road.
After less than ten minutes of walking on the uneven road in the dilapidated and primitive cavern, you enter a vertical shaft, which is completely reinforced with wood.
On top of that, there are piles of boxes here.
The moment he entered this vertical shaft, Wang Yonghao saw six or seven boxes, and then he opened them one by one and found that they were all empty.
Whether it was a large wooden box with 24 compartments or a wooden crate with 16 compartments, there was not a single thing left for him.
But it's right to think about it, in fact, it should be like this, because he is not the first person to come here, so unless there is a place guarded by monsters, it should have been explored, and it is impossible to have something.
Climbing up the ladder of the shaft, there are almost no monsters and a large number of empty chests.
It made him wonder if he had entered a path that had been taken not long ago.
He climbed all the way up, and it took him about half an hour to reach the top of the shaft.
And then connected to it was a natural cave, which he didn't expect.
Perhaps in the natural cave, there are almost no man-made buildings, only a long trestle bridge in front of it, which can be regarded as a man-made building, because there is a large lake under the cave.
Looking around, there are many traces of man-made excavations, but all of them end on the thick stone walls.
Obviously, when the miners dug here, they intended to expand further, but no matter how they expanded, they stopped working without finding any valuable deposits.
But walking on this bridge and looking at the huge underground lake of at least a few thousand square meters nearby, it seems that it is not so simple.
In his current imagination, there are only two possibilities, one is that they have encountered something irreversible, so they can't move on, and the other is that there is really nothing of value in the vicinity, so the work is stopped.
But judging by the finely machined vertical shaft and the large number of supply boxes, the first one is more likely.
The miners who excavated at the beginning and the explorers who came after them made good preparations here, but they were not able to really break through here.
Walking across the long wooden bridge, Wang Yonghao came to the last temporary camp left behind by miners or adventurers in this area.
It was still a makeshift tent, dominated by a uniform green dome tent, a few dusty bonfires that had been extinguished for a long time, and some boxes.
Wang Yonghao pondered here, why is this camp here?
Why does it seem counterintuitive?
And why is there a wooden spiral staircase that is hastily opened up above this camp and seems to be prepared for escape?
