Chapter 114 - Fire Release, Devouring Gnomes!
The next two excavations were uneventful.
Klein didn't encounter any crypt creatures.
The fifty-ninth catacomb was a gas chamber. He had collected the materials needed for the skeleton medicine to replenish his previous losses.
In the sixtieth catacomb, there were only two copper chests. The more valuable items were the Excellent Runic Crossbow Blueprint and 3 runes.
The Echo Monster didn't appear again.
It wasn't that Klein was suspicious. Every time he entered the next catacomb, he would always turn his head back to take a look.
After entering the catacombs twice in a row, he felt slightly relieved when he didn't find any spatial fluctuations.
'This is today's last dig. I hope there's something good.'
After Klein finished praying in his heart, he checked the directions one by one.
[Continue digging. The two crypt creatures just fought a great battle and are on the verge of death. You'll be able to finish them off with just two slashes.]
[There's nothing in the crypt on the left.]
[There's a Gold Treasure Chest in the crypt on the right. A group of depraved Gnomes have taken over the Charm Stone Woman. After killing the gnomes, you will obtain a pretty good half-woman. It's best if you enter in a sage state, or else you'll get carried away if you see the Charm Stone Woman.]
[Dig forward, and there will be a Silver Treasure Chest. The Observer Eye Devil will be next to the treasure chest. Only by blinding it and killing it will you have a chance of obtaining the treasure chest.]
[Dig backward, and there will be some pretty good resources. A Sweet Fruit Tree is already ripe, enough for you to eat for a while.]
In fact, Klein had already made up his mind when he observed the gold treasure chest.
With a comprehensive comparison, he checked the last two directions.
The result was obvious. The gold treasure chest had won again!
'This Charm Stone Woman has a body. Could she be of the same type as the succubus?'
It would be best if he entered the sage state...
Klein didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
Regardless, he first opened the illustrated handbook to check.
It wouldn't be wrong to understand clearly!
He checked the Charm Stone Woman.
There was no result.
Alright.
He could only check the Gnomes!
[Gnome: A cousin of the Dwarves. It has a tall build, usually 1.8 meters to 2 meters tall. It has a fierce personality. It has rich battle records and strict organizational discipline. It often appears in the form of an army.]
[Ability: Combo]
[Weakness: Simple mind]
[Danger Factor: 45]
...
Check the ability
[Combo: Able to quickly complete two attacks. Duration: 0.1 seconds. Cooldown: 5 minutes]
...
The Gnomes and Dwarves were somewhat similar in terms of foreign trade.
They had higher levels of improvement and were stronger.
They had well-developed limbs, so they were simple-minded.
They developed in the opposite direction of the Dwarves.
"The individual danger factor isn't high."
"If it's a group..."
"I now have the Flash Spell and elemental missiles. With my long-range abilities, I can easily deal with more than a dozen Gnomes at the same time."
"The prompt doesn't warn me of danger, which means that there aren't too many of them."
Klein quickly made a decision.
He couldn't leave a gold treasure chest unopened. He would know in a while.
Since it was occupied by the Gnomes, it meant that it wasn't powerful.
...
The sixty-first catacomb!
A spatial fluctuation.
He appeared inside first.
Then, it was Little Fox and Little Wind.
After they entered, they yawned.
They had yet to experience the weakening effect of the day, and they had experienced the battle of the Multifaceted Behemoths. All they did was stop and have a good sleep.
"Over there!"
The moment Klein arrived, he immediately found his target.
Fifty meters away, on a small hill, a group of Gnomes were munching on meat.
Beside them was a glittering cold treasure chest!
"Where's the Charm Stone Woman?"
Klein was rather curious about this.
After scanning the area, he only saw the Gnomes and the tent behind them.
"The small hill is narrow, and the Gnomes are able to occupy higher ground. This means that they have this awareness."
"Perhaps it's because they joined the army..."
Looking from afar, Klein realized that the Gnomes' equipment were relatively uniform.
Most of them were deserters.
That was why they were called depraved.
"There's an enemy!"
While Klein was engrossed in his observations, the Gnomes had already discovered him and were shouting.
The other party had already taken out their weapons, armor, and a formation.
However, the formation was a little loose. Perhaps it was because they hadn't trained for too long.
Klein thought for a moment before saying, "I've only just appeared, and they already treat me as an enemy."
'Isn't it a little too sensitive?'
Klein thought about it, but he couldn't figure it out.
The Gnomes didn't descend the hill. They were still in the stronghold.
Klein flew high into the sky and approached the Gnome's tent.
Little Fox and Little Wind also advanced quickly.
After using the extra Low-Grade Agility Enchantment Scroll, Little Wind's speed increased a lot.
It couldn't be said that he could keep up with Little Fox's speed, but at least he wouldn't be left behind too far.
Whoosh!
The rock flew over extremely quickly.
Klein raised his left arm.
The wind shield condensed.
The rocks were all sent flying.
The two sides were already very close.
Klein took out his Firestorm Saber and increased his speed.
There were a total of eight Gnomes.
When they saw that Klein was approaching, all of them shouted excitedly. They all thought that if Klein came down to fight, it would be equivalent to courting death.
To voluntarily give up the advantage in the air, he was an idiot!
The Gnomes thought carefully.
The distance was getting closer.
Ten meters, seven meters, three meters!
Suddenly, Klein opened his five fingers.
His palm emitted an intense light!
"Fire elemental missile!"
