Chapter 122 - The Ability to Infiltrate Dreams is Just So-So
“A Banquet?”
Klein narrowed his eyes.
‘I hope it doesn’t come out looking for trouble!’
Klein didn’t know if he could use a weapon or a charm to attack a Banquet.
The illustration described the Banquet as incorporeal damage.
It could be understood in two ways.
First, the body is incorporeal, so there was no real damage.
Second, the attack was soft, so there was no physical damage.
If it was the first, Klein wouldn’t be able to do anything to the Banquet.
The Banquet wouldn’t be able to deal with him either.
He put on the gas mask and didn’t fall for the Sleepyhead.
Without entering the dream, the Banquet stared at him from the side.
Klein raised the runic lamp and scanned the surroundings with a beam of light.
He gradually saw the environment of the entire underground tomb.
It was empty and filled with rock walls. The area was almost as large as the entire catacomb.
Even if he didn’t find an entrance, he would still find a tomb when he dug down.
‘It’s not as narrow as I imagined. The corpses on the ground aren’t just funerary objects of the Earth Dragon. They’re also crypt creatures that were eaten by the Banquet.’
Klein took out the Firestorm Saber and fiddled with the corpses.
Some of them were old and would shatter with a light touch.
Some of them were humanoid corpses, while some were beast-shaped.
Just one type of corpse was enough to identify dozens of species.
“Beast bones can be useful sometimes. Collect a batch.”
Klein took a few steps before turning back to collect them.
The available resources were right beside his feet, and his habit of hoarding resources was back.
In the past, when Klein played games, even if he knew that a resource wasn’t very useful, he would always think of hoarding more.
What if he could use it in the future?
Other than sand, he could hoard everything else in the catacombs!
“I think it’s about time.”
“There’s still a bit left. I might as well move all of it.”
Klein scratched his head and continued collecting.
Little Fox and Little Wind, on his left and right, protected Klein, wary of the existence in the darkness.
Their night vision was better than Klein’s.
Even so, they still couldn’t find the location of the Banquet.
In other words, the Banquet was nearby and they couldn’t see it.
Little Fox and Little Wind’s night vision was strong because their eyes could receive faint light.
If the Banquet devoured even faint light, they naturally wouldn’t be able to see the Banquet.
“Done.”
Klein clapped his hands.
The ground was clean.
He felt comfortable.
He continued to explore.
Rather than calling this a tomb, it was more like a sealed nest.
There were no traps like Klein had imagined. There was only emptiness and cold wind.
Normally, if there was wind in a sealed environment, it meant that there was an air vent.
The world of the catacombs was different. The sand could also be ventilated, so it was useless to seal the environment.
The entire tomb was dark, which meant that most of the places were covered by the rock walls, so there was less light coming in.
Phew!
A gust of wind blew past him.
It was beside him!
Klein had a premonition, so he quickly adjusted the runic light mode.
The light scattered.
It illuminated the surroundings.
Klein scanned the surroundings, but he still couldn’t see anything.
But…
He could already confirm the location.
Under the light, a few meters away, there was a light-forbidden area.
It was like a black hole that devoured all the light around it,
Klein raised his hand and quickly condensed a fire elemental missile.
“Go.”
The fire elemental missile flew straight at it.
The restricted light zone moved quickly.
A fire elemental missile landed on its body.
Klein heard a low groan. It was obvious that it was injured.
“It can be injured?”
Klein was delighted.
Since it wasn’t an incorporeal body, everything was easy.
He chased after it with large strides.
He held the Lightning Crossbow in his hand.
He pursued relentlessly.
However, the Banquet was easily hidden in the darkness, and it disappeared in a flash.
Klein thought to himself, ‘What a pity.’
[If you follow this path, you will find treasures.]
A notification popped up in front of him.
Klein had no choice but to give up. It was more important to find treasures first.
As he continued forward, he didn’t encounter any more accidents.
At the end of the tomb, Klein saw a huge corpse!
From the beginning to the end, it was twenty meters long.
Just one skull was as tall as a person.
[Earth Dragon Bone: The remains of a powerful Earth Dragon after its death. It’s extremely hard.]
Klein stored the Earth Dragon bones into the base piece by piece.
The first level was definitely not enough, so he could only place them on the second level.
After collecting all the Earth Dragon bones, Klein looked at the small icon in the upper left corner of the system interface. It changed from green to yellow.
It meant that the runic base’s available space had dropped below 80% .
[The Sleepyhead is hidden behind the stone.]
When Klein was searching for the treasures in the tomb, he unintentionally swept past a large stone.
“If I can’t deal with you, then I’ll deal with your accomplice!”
He was certain that the Sleepyhead had been emitting a fragrance.
However, the Sleepyhead and the Banquet never expected that Klein would make sufficient preparations before coming down. The Perfect Gas Mask completely countered them!
Klein remained calm and deliberately went elsewhere
Suddenly, his right hand under the spell-casting cloak extended out.
He threw out an elemental missile.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The stone exploded.
It revealed the Sleepyhead’s fat body.
It was a meter long and chubby.
It seemed to have received a fright. It shrieked and crawled as fast as it could.
But it was still as slow as a turtle.
Klein raised his hand and fired a few more fire elemental missiles.
Puah! Puah! Puah…
All of them landed on the Sleepyhead.
Its body instantly exploded like lava.
