There's a skeleton dungeon connected to my basement.

Chapter 10, White Candle

Before he knew it, Xiao Yang had cleaned up this zombie prison, leaving only some extremely crowded multi-person rooms.

During this period, while Xiao Yang was leveling up, he couldn't help but think about a question. If this place was really a prison, then what about the prison guards? It couldn't be that there were only prisoners in a prison.

This doesn't make sense. It's impossible that this area is simply a special monster spawning area created by the God Game to spawn a specific type of monster for players to level up.

But in this case, these prisoner zombies have not been refreshed!

Xiao Yang is not a very particular plot party, but he also pays attention to the plot during the game.

While cleaning the prison area, Xiao Yang found some doors that could not be opened.

Behind one of the doors that could not be opened, Xiao Yang saw an iron shovel leaning against the wall. The iron shovel had a faint blue glow, which made Xiao Yang very envious. But unfortunately, he could not open this cell that did not look very sturdy.

These rooms probably require some special means to open.

This God's Game is like a game, but not really like a game. At least for those rooms that cannot be opened, Xiao Yang tried to open the door lock directly with the axe in his hand, but after a few hits, there was almost no further change.

This door is wrapped with a special layer of protection. Xiao Yang is not yet in a position to open it. Perhaps he does not have enough strength, or perhaps he needs unlocking skills, or he simply needs to find the key, which makes people helpless.

Continuing to explore forward, Xiao Yang discovered a large group of zombies after turning a corner.

In the second half of this zombie prison, all the zombies that were supposed to be trapped in the cells broke free and gathered densely in the corridor, making inexplicable roars from time to time and wandering aimlessly in this area.

There are quite a few prisoner zombies gathered here, densely packed, there must be at least 10 to 20 of them, which is very troublesome. Now Xiao Yang has to be cautious when facing a room with more than three prisoner zombies, and dare not provoke them, let alone such a large group here.

The leveling process came to a halt, and the food in hand was officially consumed on this day.

When you are still, you will think about action. Xiao Yang had to stop his leveling process. He was almost at level five with the help of the prisoner zombies lying in the prison.

I have to complain that the experience gain in this God game is really harsh.

One zombie can only bring him 20 experience points, but the experience requirement for him to go from level 4 to level 5 has suddenly soared to 600. That is to say, Xiao Yang now needs to kill 30 zombies before he can level up.

This is based on the fact that the target he chose to level up was the prisoner zombie that was five levels higher than him. If it were ordinary skeletons, Xiao Yang felt that he would have to at least kill a thousand skeletons before he could level up.

This situation is already difficult enough, but it is not even the limit of this game of gods. Even with each level up, he has to face the increasingly exaggerated experience decay. At level three, he could gain 30 experience points by killing these prisoner zombies, but now it is only 20 points.

But if you think about it carefully, it seems reasonable. After all, this is real OL. If there is no such exaggerated experience decay, I am afraid that every player in the God Game will naturally lean towards the terrifying world destroyer.

After all, bullying the weak is always easier than challenging the strong. If Xiao Yang could gain experience by killing ants, he would probably be interested in pouring boiling water into ant nests.

I can't even imagine how chaotic and miserable the world would be if every powerful person cultivated by this God Game were so fond of pouring boiling water on ants. At that time, this God Game might as well change its name. The Horror Demon World Destruction Game.

While thinking about action from afar, Xiao Yang did two things. First, he seized the opportunity to return to the gate leading to the slope through the hole opened by the skeleton ball. As expected, the door of the room was tightly closed and could not be opened at all.

The second thing is to explore the depths of this hidden area along the path where the skeleton ball rolls.

It was not a complete failure. Along the road, there were some depressions that looked like shrines, and Xiao Yang did successfully explore forward for a distance.

Yes, shrines. In the depressions on the walls, there are strange statues placed. The statue enshrined is a person sitting cross-legged on a cushion, surrounded by countless arms and clinging to it, so that the face cannot be seen clearly.

An unsettling image; what is being worshipped is definitely not something serious.

Sprint along the shrines one by one until you reach the last shrine in this passage. There are no more shrines after that, and there are no more shrines on the wall.

This road is a dead end. Xiao Yang looked forward and a dark crack appeared in front of him. A bottomless dark crack was across the road.

The situation was so hopeless that it seemed he needed to turn around. When Xiao Yang was about to leave, he caught a glimpse of the ashes in front of the shrine.

I don’t know if it’s an illusion, but this pile of ashes seems to be smaller than the ashes in front of the other shrines. During the pause, Xiao Yang suddenly made an unexpected move.

In front of the statue whose face and figure were invisible because of countless arms clinging to it, Xiao Yang began to search in the ashes with something under the statue's gaze. Sure enough, Xiao Yang's player sense of smell was not a problem, and he found a candle from the ashes.

White candle
Quality: unknown

Introduction: This is a white candle, ordinary, but after lighting it you can smell a very special smell, the smell of meat.

Just from the introduction, Xiao Yang could tell that there was something wrong with the candle, but he was still a little confused about what it was used for.

Put it away properly, and after doing all this, things returned to normal.

Not long after, the embarrassed Xiao Yang was chased by the whistling bone ball and pounced again, and flew into the zombie prison. He came back here again. At present, Xiao Yang found that he could only fight to the death with these prisoner zombies.

The bread was all eaten, although there was still a bag of black bread and a bottle of beer in his backpack. Although in principle Xiao Yang was a little resistant to eating this black bread, it was not because he could not overcome the psychological barrier. He simply felt that this bag of black bread would have other uses.

But there is no way now. When it’s time to eat, there is nothing I can do.

Just like that, Xiao Yang returned to the second half of the zombie prison and appeared in front of the crowded zombie passage.

Now that things have come to this, there is no better way. Let’s just kill the zombies first!
