……

Time flies, and it has been a month since Li Xiao was toyed with by a griffin and died.

In the past month, the courtyard of the small plain has changed a lot, the area has increased, and the facilities inside have also increased a lot......

But the biggest change is Li Xiao himself!

The change in appearance is only secondary, and the most drastic change is his expression-

From a powerless college student, he has completely transformed into a hunter who can survive on this primitive Ark Island!

His eyes were resolute and cold, without the cowardice and confusion he had when he first came to this world......

His daily life for the past month has been very regular—he has been training archery skills in the courtyard in the morning, and he has been renovating the courtyard during his rest time; In the afternoon, go out to collect supplies and hunt dinosaurs......

He didn't go out of his way to brush up on experience, his level just increased normally, and he had risen by level 4 in the past month, reaching the current level of 18.

……

"As for throwing up?" Li Xiao looked at this note, and the corners of his mouth twitched.

……

【Stone Water Pipe】......

……

After killing a giant python yesterday, his level reached level 18, which also marked the end of Li Xiao's comfortable days during this period of time.

With the velociraptor saddle, your mobility and safety are greatly improved, and you can go out and explore again.

As for the unlocking of animal skin covers, anti-infectives and insect repellents, it also shows that you can do some big things!

Like, go to a dangerous cave and touch an artifact?!

This thought kept wandering in his mind, and Li Xiao thought about its feasibility. In a moment, he decided to go!

Go to the Southern Caverns, the least dangerous cave in the Southern Isles, and get the artifact "Hunter"!

Opening the crafting column, Li Xiao asked his hands to make all the equipment he needed, and he himself used the grinder to make the potion.

Today, in addition to preparing materials and equipment, there is one more thing Li Xiao has to do-

Build water facilities!

The water for drinking and planting has always been obtained by Li Xiao from the small river on the west side of the small plain.

But this small river is some distance from the yard, and Li Xiao doesn't have any good containers, so the only way to get a large amount of fresh water is for him to run back and forth a few times a day.

It takes time and effort.

The unlocking of the reservoir and aqueduct saved him the trouble of running back and forth between the creek and the yard.

Looking for a vacant lot in the courtyard, Li Xiao built a water supply facility......

……

A day flew by, and early the next morning, Li Xiao was dressed in animal skin clothes and stood at the gate of the courtyard with a dinosaur under his crotch.

I saw that the parasaurus that he often rode under his crotch was gone, but was replaced by the velociraptor "Xiao Xun" who had been idle in the enclosure, and the parasaurus returned to the enclosure.

This Xiao Xun stayed in the enclosure for more than a month, Li Xiao ate and drank well every day, and its body was blessed.

If you don't let it run around anymore, it won't be able to walk.

Li Xiao checked the items he needed to carry in his inventory again-

Bows and arrows, spears, stone axes, stone pickaxes, water bags, cooked meat, and other weapons, tools, and food, not to mention, are all things that never leave the inventory.

The rest of the inventory is what Li Xiao should pay attention to:

three flare guns to illuminate too dark places in the cave;

Two parts of insect repellent, the effect does not need to be repeated;

a number of stimulants to remove the anesthetic toxins from being bitten by a poison in a cave;

A portion of antiviral medicine, this thing is also prepared just in case, you must know that once bitten, in addition to the risk of infection, the germs in the mouth of these wild creatures are also quite deadly!

In particular, the clawed bats and ancient monitor lizards in the caves carry a virulent rabies virus in their mouths!

Once bitten, the virus will flow down the bloodstream throughout the body within a few minutes, and within half an hour, your body will show symptoms!

Dizziness, weakness, confusion, and being in the depths of a cave surrounded by danger......

When he first played the Ark game before, Li Xiao died several times because he went down to the cave without medicine!

When a character dies in the game, the most regrettable thing is the lost equipment items......

But if he died in the cave himself...... Think of yourself being eaten by a spider the size of a table......

Li Xiao's hairs stood up!

In comparison, death from infection is a luxury......

After repeatedly confirming that there was no omission, Li Xiao patted the velociraptor neck.

The velociraptor screamed excitedly, and took a step towards the southern islands......

Li Xiao had already experienced the speed of a velociraptor a revelator, but when he actually rode a velociraptor with a saddle, he felt even more shocked.

The oncoming wind blew Li Xiao's face a little numb, and he didn't dare to look ahead, because the scene that was still a hundred meters away just now came to him in a few breaths!

It's so fast!

At this speed, as long as a velociraptor accidentally slips, it will definitely crash into a tree with a dragon and cause a tragic "car accident"!

A distance of a few kilometers is not a matter at this speed, and it is only a cup of tea.

Li Xiao got off the dragon, discerned the direction, and walked towards the archipelago in front of him.

According to the topography in mind, the Southern Cave is located in a ravine on the central island of the archipelago.

But the vegetation here is so luxuriant, full of tall, broad-leaved plants that shade the sky and the sun, that it is difficult to find this ravine.

And it is also very difficult to move forward, Li Xiao can only use a stone axe to cut off these branches and leaves to advance.

After brushing aside the messy palm leaves, Li Xiao took a step, but he stepped on the air and fell.

He stood up with a grim face, calming his heart, which was beating violently from weightlessness.

Fortunately, there was only a three-meter-high drop in this place, and there were no injuries.

Looking around, the corners of Li Xiao's mouth twitched.

"Is it such a coincidence!"

What was presented in front of him was a one-man tall cave with a black interior!

Exactly the entrance to the Southern Cave!

"Okay." Li Xiao also accepted his fate, let the velociraptor guard the entrance of the cave, and he walked in alone......

The path inside the cave winds its way down into the depths of the earth.

Walking along the road, Li Xiao found a shiny, translucent ore.

Quartz!

This mineral is the most important material for making telescopes, and Li Xiao wielded a stone pickaxe and collected a lot.

I continued to walk down, and after a while, I came across the first fork in the road.

"You can find artifacts on the left, and treasure chests on the right." Li Xiao couldn't be more familiar with this cave road.

He decided to go get the artifact first, and then go to the treasure chest when he returned.

So he chose the path on the left.

After turning a corner, the line of sight suddenly widens:

It's a large underground space, almost the size of half a football field.

The high ceiling is full of stalactites that are sharp and downward, and many faint quartz are distributed on the four walls of this space, illuminating the entire space.

A few-shelled creatures walked slowly on the ground, none other than harmless ancient dung beetles.

What caught Li Xiao's attention was that several huge scorpions were hiding in the shadows of the corners!

If you look closely, you can see that the scorpions have two pairs of powerful chela, several pairs of slender carapace feet, and a scorpion spur that bends forward and stands high behind their backs!

It looks like a normal scorpion......

Except—their coffee table-sized size!

The hairs on Li Xiao's body stood up! This giant scorpion is really infiltrating.

But as he continued to look inside the cave, his hair stood on end!

In the darkness of the rock wall, there are even more creatures hidden - spiders!

There are hundreds of them!

A hairy belly, slender and sharp arthrops, large and small, dense eyes......

The point is that the size is also huge!

"Oh my god!!" He felt like his goosebumps were falling!

Seeing that there were also a few spiders in the place where he was going, he was a little hesitant to move on.

Without saying a word, Li Xiao took out the viscous insect repellent in a wooden bowl and wiped it off his body desperately......

The insect repellent doesn't taste unpleasant, and it also has a faint lemon flavor.

But when Li Xiao took out the insect repellent, the spiders and scorpions not far from him avoided Li Xiao from a distance.

It seems that the effect of insect repellent is quite good!

Holding back the discomfort in his heart, Li Xiao cautiously moved to the next intersection.

Wherever he passed, the spiders and giant scorpions were far away, bringing a dense "rustle" sound.

This made Li Xiao's heart even more furious......

He could only try not to look at or think about the seeping giant spiders.

Finally, he walked through the wide space and entered the cave path again!

Occasionally, in the shadows, furry spiders can still be seen, but compared to the dense number in the wide space, this is all pediatric.

As he walked, he stopped.

The reason that interrupted him was that on the top of the road ahead, there were several figures the size of a basin hanging upside down.

Shrunken wings, sharp teeth, blood-red eyes – it's a clawed bat!

The appearance of the clawed bat looks very ferocious, but compared to the spider giant scorpion, it is already very pleasing to Li Xiao.

Taking out the bow and arrows, Li Xiao shot a few arrows and shot down these clawed bats.

The light in the cave was dim, but Li Xiao still didn't lose his head, and the arrow hit the head of the clawed bat, killing them directly!

Continuing forward, passing by the clawed bats on the ground, Li Xiao casually collected the arrows......

There are also many kinds of creatures in this underground cave, and after walking a distance, Li Xiao found several Titan pythons lying on the road.

Seeing these giant pythons, Li Xiao's tears were about to flow out.

In this infiltrating underground cavern, no creature is less than six legs, except for clawed bats!

At the moment, how cute the round, legless python is......

He kept moving in his hands, sending these "cute" pythons into the arms of death one by one!

Moving on, I came to a small space again.

Unlike the one just now, there are many more silvery-white ores on the ground and rock walls of this space.

This is rough iron ore, and if you refine it in a furnace, you will get metallic iron.

And iron will be an important resource for its own mid- and late-term development......

Li Xiao's inventory had a lot of empty grids, and he filled most of them with metal ores.

There are still a lot of spiders, giant scorpions and other poisons around, but Li Xiao has gradually adapted to their existence.

Anyway, he was coated with insect repellent, and he was bold enough to collect the metal ore as if no one was around.

When Li Xiao's inventory was completely full, he stopped.

Keep moving!

With the sound of gurgling water, Li Xiao came to the bank of an underground river.

On the other side, a suspended triangular body glowed green......

It's a treasure chest! Li Xiao was so excited that he almost forgot that there was also a treasure chest on the way to get the artifact.

You must know that the treasure chest contains blueprints of high-level equipment!

Without saying a word, Li Xiao jumped down from the water and swam towards the treasure chest......

The speed of the water in this underground river is not fast, but the water temperature is relatively low, and Li Xiao was trembling after jumping down.

"It's so cold!"

But when he saw the glowing treasure chest on the other side, the coldness disappeared in an instant.

His mind was full of guessing what would be in there......

Dragging his wet body and climbing ashore, Li Xiao threw himself in front of the treasure chest.

He took a closer look at the treasure chest:

The overall size of the chest is similar to that of a basketball, and the shape is an extremely standard regular triangle, covered with intricate textures, similar to those on the giant monument hanging in the sky.

The treasure chest floated half a meter above the ground, slowly spinning on its own, emitting a pale green glow from its textures.

This is a green treasure chest, which means that the drawings inside are of a good level.

I just don't know what the equipment is inside?

Is it a bow? Is it an axe? Or a pickaxe? Spear?

……

At this moment, Li Xiao was still indulging in the joy of finding the treasure chest, and did not pay any attention to the few creatures moving softly above his head......

Li Xiao's hand excitedly touched the treasure chest......

And the creature above his head also quietly aimed its sharp mouthparts at his head......
