Chapter 550: visible danger is much better than invisible danger
Along the path there are few poisonous bugs like scorpions, centipedes, and snakes attacked them.
But all of them are simply level 10 or level 12 creatures.
Most of them are guarding a wooden or iron treasure chest.
So it was easy to kill.
The rewards are all water and food.
There are rarely design drawings to upgrade the base.
All of them are around level 10 to level 15.
The other green area is the place with plenty of desert plant vines spread like river.
Vicky did not have much hope for the water here and feels that the monster should be some sort of desert plant.
These vines might strangle them if they are not careful.
Before facing this monster they decided to take the rest and eat something to replenish their strength.
After they ate something and rested they walked close to the green area.
There are long desert plant vines that grew tens of meters of distance forming a near circular spot.
Because of the caution they only came to the edge of the area and let Cylia try to communicate with the plant.
At the same time Vicky asked Tian Meng to search the surrounding area to see if there is any life form other than these plant vines.
Also they are searching to see if there is any treasure chest nearby.
It is better to have a treasure chest nearby than to not have a treasure chest.
If there is no treasure chest then the problem is bigger than having a treasure chest with a beast to guard it.
Simply put visible danger is much better than invisible danger.
After searching for a few minutes they did not find any treasure chest.
This made Vicky worried.
Right then Cylia tried to communicate with the plant.
The information she got is that there is a small oasis or water puddle at the center of the area where there is a treasure chest.
This information is enough for Vicky to become more suspicious.
So they immediately backed off.
This is a dangerous place.
The plant wants to lure then into the center and the situation would be no different from the previous oasis.
So they backed off.
Vicky on the other hand had an idea.
That is they got to the top of the dune that has a certain height.
Then he took out his bag pack.
After that he took out a suction cup like thing from the bag pack and connected it to a special metal stick.
Then he transformed his gun to harpoon launcher model and aimed towards the center of the area.
Vicky wanted to see if there is really a treasure chest.
The problem is that Tian Meng and his power could not sense that long or that deep into the ground.
The amount of place they searched did not give them any proper information.
It was actually caused by interference.
So naturally they choose the other way around.
The gun was connected to an adjustable drone that is working on the solar energy.
Vicky controlled it and it took off.
It went straight to the top of the water puddle at the center of the green plant vine area.
Vicky carefully zoom the camera of the drone to check the situation under it.
He did not let the drone fly too high because he don't know if there is any flying monsters like vulture present in this desert.
He did not see doesn't mean that they did not exist.
Being cautious is much better than feeling sorry for the loss later.
When he magnified the camera he found that there is indeed a treasure chest in the puddle of water.
It is actually a golden treasure chest.
They are not here for water.
They don't care if the plant tell them truth or a lie.
The point is they want to take the treasure chest if it exists.
That is the most important thing here.
That is what they are searching around for and came to this place.
Since there is a treasure chest Vicky immediately switched the position of the gun and pointed the suction cup straight at the treasure chest.
He has checked before.
All the treasure chests have equal weight.
It is just around 2 Kg.
The drone can lift this small weight easily.
Even if there is a problem the rope connecting the suction cup would be left and the drone would return to him in auto pilot escaping all obstacles.
The suction cup aimed carefully towards the treasure chest and fired.
"Plup"
There is sound of something falling heavily in water.
The moment the suction cup came into contact with the treasure chest it immediately stuck to it because of the sensor.
Immediately the drone retracted the suction cup to pull the treasure chest very slowly till the treasure chest was in moment.
Right at that moment the place started to vibrate.
Vicky knows what would happen.
So he immediately improved the retraction force of the drone to pull the treasure chest out of that place.
From the drone camera Vicky saw many sharp fangs like teeth came out with a circular mouth.
It moved up with a fast speed covering the entire area.
The girls that watched the situation were frightened but there is also anticipation of getting the treasure chest.
So they stood there without making any movement, so that they would not disturb Vicky to move the thing.
Fortunately the treasure chest was successfully pulled out of the mouth of the monster.
Many plant vines wanted to move up and catch the drone that is taking the treasure chest.
But Vicky set it in automatic mode so that it can escape and come to him quickly.
It has the sensing range of 1 kilometer from the tablet in the hands of Vicky.
So Vicky can move farther away so that the drone can come over without bringing the monster along with it.
