Being a bug in a survival game

"Qin Qi went out again?" There were dark burnt marks left on the ground outside the wooden house. Su Tingyu touched his growling empty stomach and decided to have breakfast first.

Qin Qi came back just as he was halfway through the bread.

Su Tingyu stuffed the rest of the bread into her mouth, her cheeks bulging, and asked inarticulately: "Qin Qi... Niqu na goose..."

"There are clues to the location of the dungeon boss's seal." Qin Qi drew up the ancient bronze sword and walked into the wooden house.

Hearing this, Su Tingyu's eyes widened.

Qin Qi picked up his hiking bag and handed an unopened bottle of mineral water to Su Tingyu.

Su Tingyu took it, unscrewed the bottle cap and drank some water, with a look of excitement on his face: "Then shall we go now? You didn't sleep last night, do you want to take a rest first?"

"No, let's go."

Su Tingyu glanced at Qin Qi carefully to make sure that the latter was not trying to hold on, and went to find her hiking bag: "Okay."

After leaving the wooden house, Qin Qi seemed to know the location of the seal very clearly, and there was no hesitation in his steps.

Before Su Tingyu could ask, Qin Qi explained: "Most of the stone tablets supporting the formation are gone, so the location of the sealed dungeon boss cannot be hidden. At dawn, it was sensed by the ancient bronze sword. "

"So that's it!" Su Tingyu glanced at the ancient bronze sword in Qin's hand, "This ancient sword of yours has many functions."

Not only can it cut and fight, it can ward off evil spirits and attract imps, but it can also be used as a detector!

The two walked through a forest and were blocked by a mountain stream. The surrounding light was a bit dim and the sunlight was blocked by many strange-shaped green plants.

The two continued to search along the direction of the stream, and finally made a discovery.

A hidden cave covered in greenery.

It's hard to spot if you don't look carefully.

Qin Qi swung his sword to cut off some green plants, revealing a small hole. It was dark inside, with a hint of coldness that had not seen the light of day all year round.

"It doesn't look like it was formed naturally." Su Tingyu glimpsed that the sides of the three-meter-high hole were cut smoothly and flatly, as if they were made by manpower.

Above the cave, there is a stone plaque engraved with some strange symbols.

Su Tingyu took out a stone tablet and compared the handwriting and style of the two symbols. They were very similar.

"Go in and take a look." Qin Qi turned on the flashlight switch with his left hand, and the light shone into the dark hole.

As soon as the two walked in, they smelled a muddy smell in the air.

Su Tingyu sniffed the smell in the cave: "It's such a strong muddy smell. It was also present on the puppet before..."

It's like the smell of dead bones mixed with bloody mud...

Qin Qi has been holding the ancient bronze sword in his right hand, and his eyes are slightly wary of the front.

Until the two of them reached the depths of the cave.

Various mysterious and awkward symbols are carved all over the stone wall. Several thick and long iron chains are fastened to the stone wall. The other end fell alone on the circular stone platform, showing obvious signs of damage.

It was obvious that the monster had broken the seal and escaped.

In the corner at the edge of the stone platform, numerous bones were piled up and mixed into the soil.

There are still a few "fresh" corpses on the white bones, and the bones and flesh inside seem to have been devoured, leaving only a thin pair of human skin.

Su Tingyu recognized one of the human skins.

It is a female student NPC named "Xiao Xia".

No useful clues could be found in the cave, and the two came out soon.

"Qin Qi, did the monster break the seal last night?" Seeing Qin Qi's calm expression, Su Tingyu seemed to have guessed that the monster was no longer here.

Qin Qi nodded: "Well, the puppet riot last night may be attracting our attention." He didn't have much hope at first, just for verification.

Su Tingyu blinked his big eyes with amusement in his eyes.

That makes sense.

But……

"Something feels weird..." Su Tingyu muttered.
