Superbase Evolution

Chapter 118 Three Treasure Boxes

When a strong light shone inside, the big red bull was immediately seen right below, but the mutant miser was nowhere to be found.

The cave is estimated to be more than ten meters deep. Apart from a layer of grass and soil on the top, the bottom is covered with black rocks with a metallic luster.

The big red bull stood in the water, which just covered its calves and was not very deep.

The light from the flashlight shone on the water surface and actually penetrated directly to the bottom. The water here is so clear that you can see the bottom.

But this is not the main problem. The problem is that Lin Shen actually saw golden bricks in the water.

Yes, it's bricks. The bottom of the water is covered with golden bricks. The size of the golden bricks is about the same as ordinary red bricks, and you can vaguely see strange patterns on them.

"Hey, why are there artificial things here? Are there really indigenous people on King Kai?" Lin Shen has been here several times and has been to quite a few places. Apart from the genetically modified creatures, he has not seen any alien creatures similar to humans.

Although there are some genetically modified creatures with high IQs, some even smarter than humans, very few of them will create anything.

On the contrary, humanoid creatures, such as the Celestials and the Super-Rans, all have their own technology and manufacturing industry.

The big red bull didn't find any danger below, so Lin Shen asked the mutant black-armored centipede to go down and check, but he also didn't find anything dangerous.

"Could it be that the story about the Ancient King Kai and the Three Treasure Chests that Tianxin told is true? Could this be the place where the Ancient King Kai was buried?" Although Lin Shen felt that it shouldn't be such a coincidence, he was still a little curious.

Fortunately, there was no danger below. Lin Shen took protective measures and carefully went down into the cave.

Under the cave is an arched waterway, which is obviously man-made. The entire waterway is built with golden bricks. The space is very large, similar to a subway tunnel.

The water is not deep, but it is flowing water, flowing from one end of the tunnel to the other. When it is more than a hundred meters ahead, the water turns.

"The King Kai Training Device will not teleport people to this planet for no reason. Moreover, the name of this King Kai Training Device seems to conflict with the Ancient King Kai. Could there really be something here?" Lin Shen kept shining the flashlight around.

The place where he fell was a gap in the arched waterway. For some unknown reason, a large hole collapsed here, and many gold bricks fell into the water.

Lin Shen picked up a gold brick and tried it. It was not real gold, but the color and texture were somewhat similar.

But this thing is much harder than gold, it may be some kind of alloy material.

"Using so much alloy material to build such a large project is no small feat." Lin Shen became more and more curious. After thinking about it, he decided to take a look at what was inside first.

Of course, he would not take the risk alone, so he summoned the white jade tiger and let it explore the way ahead.

After going upstream for a short distance, we reached the end. There was only a sluice gate at the end, and outside the sluice gate was an underground undercurrent. There was nothing else.

Lin Shen had no choice but to turn around and walk downstream along the water. After turning a few bends along the waterway, the scene in front of him suddenly became clear.

"What is that?" Lin Shen looked at everything in front of him and was extremely shocked.

Outside the end of this waterway is a huge underground cavity. The mouth of the waterway is located halfway up the underground cavity. The water in the waterway flows into the underground cavity like a small waterfall. There are many waterways like this on the walls of the underground space, all with water flowing.

The top of the entire underground cavity is like a starry sky, with twinkling stars. Looking closely, it is some kind of luminous crystal that illuminates the entire underground cavity.

On the left side of the waterway, there is a towering stone statue. The statue is as black as ink, but there are countless fluorescent lights flashing on its body, like the fluorescence reflected by quartz stone when exposed to light.

The stone statue has a strange shape, a half-crouching person, holding up the stone dome that looks like the starry sky with his hands and back. This action seems to be trying to lift up the dome, but it is not able to lift it up yet.

There was water beneath my feet, but it didn't seem deep. The water flowed from the other side of the underground cavity into a deeper underground cave.

Lin Shen's eyes suddenly lit up. He saw that at the feet of the stone statue, there was a stone platform, and on the stone platform were three golden treasure chests.

"Oh my God, could it be that luck really has come, and I accidentally found the three treasure chests of the Ancient King of the Realm that Tianxin has been looking for for a long time?" Lin Shen was surprised and happy.

"It seems my luck is not that good?" Lin Shen did not dare to take any chances, and let the mutated black-armored centipede fly down first to see if there was any situation.

The mutated black-armored centipede flew around in the underground hole and found no other creatures or mechanisms, nor were any mutated creatures found in the water.

Lin Shen gave the order again, letting it fly onto the stone platform.

The mutated black-armored centipede landed on the stone platform, slowly crawled towards one of the golden treasure chests, and soon touched the treasure chest.

Nothing unusual happened, Lin Shen was delighted, and quickly ordered the mutated black-armored centipede to move the golden treasure chest.

The treasure chest was not very big, only slightly larger than a shoe box. The mutated black-armored centipede wrapped its body around the treasure chest and flapped its wings, trying to pull it up.

But no matter how hard it tried, the golden treasure chest didn't move at all. It was not known whether it was because the treasure chest was too heavy or because of its special design.

Lin Shen didn't want to take the risk himself, so he ordered the mutated black-armored centipede to bite the keyhole on the treasure chest directly, wanting to open the treasure chest and see what was inside first.

The result surprised him a little. The mutated black-armored centipede, which was already a top-level pet at the crystal-based level, could not leave any traces on the treasure chest.

This made Lin Shen believe even more that perhaps this really was the treasure chest of the Ancient King of the Realm. Ordinary materials definitely could not be so hard.

Lin Shen asked the mutated black-armored centipede to try the other two treasure chests, but the result was the same, it couldn't be pulled or bitten.

Lin Shen took out the two golden crystal keys from his pocket and carefully examined the keyhole on the treasure chest.

"Looking at its size, it really does look like the key to open a treasure chest." Lin Shen thought to himself.

Of these two keys, one was snatched from Tianxin, and the other was found from Laoye.

To say that these two keys are really the keys to open the treasure chest of the Ancient King of the World, Lin Shen actually doesn't quite believe it.

"Let's give it a try, just in case it's true." Of course Lin Shen wouldn't try it himself. He summoned back the mutated black-armored centipede, let it grab a key with its claws, and flew towards the stone platform again.

The mutated black-armored centipede landed on the stone platform and, following Lin Shen's instructions, inserted the key into the keyhole of the treasure chest on the far left.

As a result, I tried several times but couldn't get it in.

"I knew it, how could we be so lucky?" Lin Shen had no choice but to let the mutated black-armored centipede try another treasure chest.

This time it went surprisingly smoothly. The key went in at once. With a click, the lock on the treasure chest was opened and the lid of the treasure chest popped up slightly.

"Open the treasure chest." Lin Shen was delighted and gave orders to the mutated black-armored centipede again.
