Digging to Survive: I Can See Hints

Klein cast a wind spell and quickly arrived at the peak of the mountain.

Indeed, there were no other trees around the peak.

There was only a large tree in the middle.

He didn’t know the name of the tree.

But the tree bore many fruits.

Each fruit was the size of a fist.

It looked very tempting.

But what was strange was that there wasn’t a single fruit that fell from such a rich fruit tree.

Klein felt a little strange as he slowly walked up.

He came to the fruit tree.

The system’s notification appeared.

[Illusion Fruit Tree, a mystical creature from the catacombs world. This fruit tree will bear one fruit, but there’s only one that has any effect.]

[The fruit’s attributes are completely random. The fruit this time is a poison-resistant fruit. It’s at the top of the Illusion Fruit Tree.]

After reading the system’s notification, Klein looked up.

Sure enough, there was a fruit the size of a fist on it.

This fruit was similar to an ordinary fruit.

It had the same color, and there was nothing special about it.

Without the system prompt, it would probably take some effort to find it among so many fruits!

With this in mind, Klein decisively went to the treetop and plucked the fruit.

Just as Klein plucked the fruit…

The Illusion Fruit Tree seemed to have encountered something.

Its huge body suddenly trembled.

Just as Klein didn’t know what had happened…

Bang!

A sound reached his ears.

Klein looked in the direction of the sound and saw a fruit fall.

However, it wasn’t over yet. Soon, the second, third, fourth…

After the fruits fell, the leaves also began to fall.

Soon, the entire tree became bare.

Then, there was a boom.

The entire Illusion Fruit Tree slowly disappeared from Klein’s eyes like a wave.

Looking at the disappearing Illusion Fruit Tree, Klein’s eyes lit up.

“Is this the Illusion Fruit Tree?”

“How fascinating!”

“I wonder if I’ll be able to meet it again!”

After a few exclamations, Klein picked up the poison-resistant fruit in his hand.

The color of the fruit instantly changed after it was plucked.

The orange fruit turned black.

There was a burst of fragrance coming from it.

Kacha!

Klein took a bite.

Instantly, the juice flowed everywhere.

The fruit was very crisp.

It was like potato chips.

The taste was a little fishy and spicy, but there was a faint aftertaste.

…

After eating, Klein explored his surroundings again.

This time, Klein wasn’t so lucky.

There weren’t any good treasures at the exits around him.

Then, Klein took out the Poison Dragon’s teleportation token.

[In your hand, there’s a layer of transmission ticket. The method of entry is to drip your blood on it. It can be triggered. Be careful, the Poison Dragon is extremely dangerous. Please be fully prepared for the challenge.]

He swept through the system’s notifications.

Klein cut his finger and dripped his blood on it.

After absorbing Klein’s blood, the transmission ticket changed instantly. A pitch-black teleportation door formed in front of Klein’s eyes.

The teleportation door was very similar to the black membrane in front of the catacomb.

Klein didn’t hesitate and directly drilled into it.

Soon, Klein disappeared into the resource catacomb.

…

What Klein didn’t know was that after he entered the teleportation door, an inexplicable crisp sound came from the cave where the original platinum treasure chest was located.

Soon, the cave was opened.

Seven or eight people came out.

They were the people from the catacomb where he had met the mysterious person in Klein’s previous encounter.

It was just different from before.

These people had clearly obtained great benefits in that world.

Everyone’s bodies were beginning to gain weight.

The young man who came in first rushed out of the cave and panted heavily.

“Hey, I’m finally out. If I had known earlier, I wouldn’t have eaten so much!”

“Haha, now you know your mistake. Do you think everyone wants to snatch it from you?”

“That’s right. I’ve already told you. Although that flesh and blood has the effect of improving a person’s physique, it’s not something that happens overnight.”

“Hmph!” The young man took a few deep breaths and said, “Am I not working hard? If I eat so much, I’ll be able to improve even more in the future!”

The young man chuckled and said, “Furthermore, Lord Klein’s tier 6 flesh and blood at the exchange hall costs 20 runes. Mine is even tier 8. Aren’t you going to eat enough?”

“Haha, you’re just greedy!” The captain also walked out and broke the young man’s stubbornness without hesitation.

The young man wanted to say a few more words.

But suddenly, the captain exclaimed, “Here?”

Everyone followed the captain’s eyes and looked over.

When they saw the situation of this catacomb, everyone was the same as the captain.

Their eyes widened.

Their mouths widened.

Their faces were filled with disbelief.

The entire world seemed to have been destroyed by the world-ending flood.

There were huge gullies everywhere, collapsed hills everywhere, and destroyed trees everywhere.

And the destruction was extremely thorough.

Everyone’s trees were all shaken into strips.

“Looks like this place is the same as the previous catacomb. A terrifying battle has happened here!”

The captain glanced around and couldn’t help but speak.

“A battle? I don’t think so. It’s more like a catastrophe that destroyed the world.”

“That’s right. The elements here are too chaotic. I can’t even use magic anymore!”

Hearing the young man’s words, everyone was stunned.

They quickly started testing.

“Me too! I can’t even mobilize the elemental energy here.”

“Not only that, it seems like the elemental energy here is very tightly entangled.”

“What exactly happened here? Why did the elemental energy change like this?”

The captain couldn’t help but ask.

It wasn’t common for magic to lose its effectiveness unless it was a place where the spirits died.

But this was clearly not a place where the spirits died.

Furthermore, the elements in this place were very dense.

The reason for this must be that a terrifying battle had occurred here.

Following that, the few of them continued their exploration.

They were very careful because their magic had already lost its effectiveness here.

As they walked, they marveled at the scene around them.

Finally, they came to the bones of a few tier 6 crypt creatures.

This was where Klein dealt with the three crypt creatures.

Not all the places of crypt creatures could be eaten.

Since they couldn’t be eaten, Klein shaved them all out and threw them on the ground.

“This is?” The captain walked up and picked up one of the scorpion shells.

“It seems to be a huge crustacean.”

“It’s a scorpion!” someone replied. “I seem to have seen this color somewhere before.”

After that person said that, someone added, “I seem to have seen it too.”

Suddenly, someone said, “This seems to be the Armored Scorpion meat that Lord Klein traded at the exchange hall.”

“I remember that Lord Klein placed it together with the scorpion shell.”

Hearing that person’s words, everyone was stunned.

Then, they couldn’t help but speak in unison.

“Lord Klein?”
