Chapter 9: Digging for Lotus Roots! Other Treasure Chest (2/2)

This was the last treasure chest’s coordinates.

“Turn left!”

Su Chen continued to pedal with one foot on the bicycle.

He headed towards the left direction.

As for the corpse of the White Spirit Wolf, Su Chen only checked if there was a spirit bead.

Then he left.

After all, he did not know when the four departing White Spirit Wolves would return.

What if he encountered them again?

Su Chen would truly be in trouble.

Fortunately, on the way back, he felt as if he was still being watched.

However, he did not encounter any other Monsters.

“Still not coming out? I really can’t stand this old six.”

On the surface, the Monsters were not scary.

What was scary were those Monsters hiding in the dark.

Who knew when he would be ambushed?

“X13…89, standing here is definitely correct, as for Y, it’s 1102, then I need to walk another Rank distance in this direction!”

The coordinates were very clear.

On the map, they were also marked very clearly.

Su Chen’s location would also appear on the map.

This could shorten his time searching for the treasure chest.

Most importantly, as long as Su Chen arrived at the location, he could see the treasure chest.

There was no need to stand at the exact spot.

Unless the treasure chest was blocked by something.

“Let’s move forward, I remember, over there… seems like there’s a lake?”

Su Chen had been here before.

He vaguely remembered that there was a lake here.

The System’s map only displayed locations.

It did not show the surrounding conditions.

Otherwise, he would have known that the first treasure chest was in the upstairs Women’s restroom.

But… the third one wouldn’t be in the lake, right?

Sure enough.

When Su Chen arrived at a place not far from the third treasure chest, he saw a lake.

Above it was a treasure chest.

“Is that… a purple gold treasure chest?”

Su Chen never expected this.

The last treasure chest turned out to be of purple gold Rank.

“If a bronze treasure chest could yield a Rank 4 skill spirit bead, then this purple gold Rank treasure chest is a jackpot!”

A purple gold Rank treasure chest!

What could be obtained from it was definitely not an ordinary item.

“But how do I get it from the lake?”

Su Chen did not dare to go into the water directly.

He knew that after the revival of Spiritual Energy, the creatures in the water had probably evolved to an unknown extent.

They were even more terrifying than the Monsters on land.

If Su Chen went directly into the lake, it would definitely not be better than on land.

The treasure chest was not very far from Su Chen.

But he could not reach it.

Su Chen suspected that the System was doing this on purpose.

He looked around.

He found a long branch.

He stretched it out, just enough to reach the treasure chest.

But before Su Chen could feel happy, the branch went straight through the treasure chest.

“System!”

Su Chen did not expect that this treasure chest was not only invisible to others, but even touching it with a branch would not work.

However, the System showed no reaction at all.

Helpless, Su Chen could only think of other methods.

If he had a small boat, it would be fine.

But now he had none.

“If I go down directly, maybe I’ll be lucky and nothing will happen… Hmm? Luck?”

Su Chen suddenly remembered.

In the previous black iron Rank treasure chest, he had just obtained Frozen Luck, right?

“Perfect for a try!”

Su Chen did not hesitate.

He took out the Frozen Luck.

He swallowed it in one go.

“Why does it taste like strawberry? System, your taste is really bad!”

Su Chen complained while eating.

He liked eating strawberries, but he did not like anything strawberry-flavored.

After finishing one Frozen Luck, Su Chen did not feel anything particularly special…

“Wait, something feels off, there’s someone following me, not a Monster, but a person?”

Su Chen looked at the figure walking out not far away.

That gaze was exactly the same as the one that had been watching him all along!
