Chapter 171 Hidden Mission with Explosive Rewards
Lin Chen didn't even look at the monster's corpse, and continued to follow the blue dotted line.
Since the sphinxes began to appear here, it meant that he was not far from their nest.
He walked up for another twelve minutes.
Lin Chen finally saw the dense red dots on the small map.
A rough count showed that there were at least 10 of them.
They hadn't discovered Lin Chen yet, because no human dared to come here normally.
Until Lin Chen stood in front of their cave entrance.
These sphinxes reacted.
"It stinks."
Standing in front of the cave entrance, all kinds of strange smells inside hit him in the face, making him hold his breath.
It was really terrible.
It was estimated that these things ate, drank, defecated and urinated in the cave.
It was like a garbage dump.
The stench was overwhelming, and Lin Chen did not hesitate and acted decisively. The sooner the battle ended, the sooner he could leave here.
The sword light illuminated the entire cave.
These sphinxes didn't even have a chance to react, and their heads were separated and rolled on the ground.
Black bugs appeared one by one, and Lin Chen killed them all.
These bugs are the real body.
"Where did the bugs come from?"
Lin Chen wandered around the cave and found a passage at the back, with several caves like rooms in the passage.
In the first room, he found a bunch of things.
There were clothes, weapons, various gems, ginseng and ganoderma...
Lin Chen first collected all the ginseng and ganoderma, and then checked the gems on the ground.
Diamonds, take them away, emeralds, too, and red agate and amber, all packed up and taken away.
"I didn't expect them to be so rich." Lin Chen muttered.
Finally, Lin Chen saw several black stones the size of a human head.
Use the system to identify them.
[Obsidian]
Lin Chen's eyes lit up immediately. With so many obsidians, there would be no problem in repairing the portal.
With so many obsidians, there would be no need to run to find magma.
"Okay."
Lin Chen also packed up these obsidians and took them away.
Then he looked through the clothes, weapons and other things, but they were all garbage.
I don't know where these monsters picked them up from.
He walked to the door of the second room, which was empty and had nothing inside.
Lin Chen walked to the third room again.
Here, he saw two corpses.
Strictly speaking, it was a human skeleton and a sphinx corpse.
On the ground next to it, there was a broken, rusty long sword.
Lin Chen looked at the skeleton and thought of what the village chief had said before. This should be the last comrade of the old village chief.
And the monster corpse in front of him.
It is very likely to be the king of the sphinx.
Because it has been dead for decades, its corpse has not completely decayed, and there are many black worms crawling on it.
These worms are too familiar.
They are the worms that just crawled out of the sphinx corpse.
Lin Chen took out Fen Xiao and burned the corpse clean with a fire, leaving no worms behind.
Finally, he took a look at the bones.
He burned the skeleton into ashes and put it in a bag.
He put the rusty iron sword back into the bag.
This man was amazing. He dared to come to this place alone and died together with the king of the sphinx.
He checked everywhere and made sure that he had not missed any treasures, then walked out of the cave.
Boom!
He kicked the rock wall next to the cave.
Instantly.
The ground shook.
The whole cave collapsed.
After Lin Chen kicked, he turned around and left.
He let the cave continue to collapse, and in a moment it was filled with various rubbles, sealing all the secrets of the past.
Ding~
The system sounded.
"Main quest: Repair the portal."
"After going through so much hardship, we found a lot of obsidian in the monster's lair, and finally we can repair the portal."
"Side quest: End the trouble forever."
"We found the monster's lair and killed all the monsters in the lair."
"But is that the end?"
"Maybe there are still monsters hiding in the village."
"We must find it and kill it to end the trouble forever!"
Lin Chen paused.
Not all dead?
There are still survivors.
Because they were waiting for an opportunity in the village and preparing to attack the villagers, they escaped by luck.
Lin Chen went down the mountain immediately.
When he returned to the village, it was already past three in the afternoon.
He returned to Zhang Xue's house with a lot of bags and found that Ye An and Lin Buhui were awake.
Among them, Lin Buhui was still teaching Zhang Xue how to cook in the kitchen.
For Lin Buhui, last night's experience was unforgettable.
I don't want to experience it again.
It will kill people.
"Lord Lin, where have you been?" Ye An sat in the living room drinking tea.
Because drinking tea helps to restore the spirit.
"I went out for a walk."
Lin Chen put down the bags on his body and put the bag of obsidian in front of Ye An.
"What is this?"
Ye An opened it and his eyes widened instantly.
"Oh my god!"
He blurted out: "Obsidian!"
"So many obsidian." He hurriedly looked at Lin Chen and asked: "Lord Lin, how did you find it?"
"I picked it up on the roadside." Lin Chen said.
Picked it up?
Ye An was shocked.
Then this luck is too good, isn't it?
"We will repair the portal tomorrow." Lin Chen said to Ye An.
"Okay!"
Ye An nodded excitedly.
The time has come for his skills to come into play!
Lin Chen found the old village chief's house with a bag of ashes.
"I just came down from the northern mountains."
Lin Chen said to the old village chief: "I found the monster's nest and killed all the monsters inside."
"And found a human skeleton inside."
He put the ashes on the table and then said: "I burned the skeleton into ashes, right here."
Then he took out the rusty iron sword and put it on the table as well.
The old village chief's eyes widened instantly.
He listened to Lin Chen's words in shock, looking at the bag and long sword on the table with a look of horror.
Then, he cried.
"Don't cry." Lin Chen said beside him: "Can you wait until I leave before crying?"
The old village chief wiped his tears in a hurry.
But no matter how he wiped, he couldn't wipe them away.
"Thank you."
He bent down and pulled out a box from under the bed.
He opened the box and took out two bottles of blood-red potions and a fist-sized gemstone with a faint glow.
"You helped me find his bones, and I have nothing to repay you."
"These three things are my most precious things."
"I hope you don't dislike them."
Lin Chen took it and scanned it with the system first.
[Special Healing Potion: Instantly restore 100 points of physical fitness, and then restore 1 point of physical fitness per second within 600 seconds. ]
[Small Experience Gem: After crushing, immediately gain 1,000 experience points. ]
Lin Chen: "?"
Two bottles of special healing potions, and experience gems!
This reward is too generous.
Originally, bringing back the ashes of the old village chief teammate was just a matter of convenience, but I didn't expect to get such a generous reward.
A big profit.
This is already comparable to the settlement reward of a game!
Lin Chen immediately accepted the two bottles of potions and experience gems.
Then he said seriously: "No need to thank me, if you want to thank someone, thank justice!"
