There’s A Bug In Me - Chapter 50
Chapter 50: Surprise! What Came Out Of The Chest Was…
This time, the creature guarding the treasure chest was a giant python.
Even Warrior Slime knew where this was going.
Just as it appeared, the Warrior Slime roared loudly and jumped at the giant python, striking it hard with the Sword of Slime.
However, in the eyes of the giant python, the Warrior Slime was just like a fat rat jumping towards it. It opened its mouth and bit half of its body.
As the Warrior Slime felt that it was gradually being swallowed, it started to shout and wail loudly and flailed around its sword and shield. It took some effort for it to unlodge itself from the python’s mouth.
After escaping, the Warrior Slime was scarred emotionally bythe python and did not dare come near the giant python’s mouth.
However, the Shadow of Slime was not scared. It jumped towards the python just like the Warrior Slime, and just like the Warrior Slime, it was swallowed by the python.
However, after it was bitten, it did not struggle around as the Warrior Slime did. It just stayed in there quietly as if waiting for the giant python to swallow it down.
The Warrior Slime thought that the Shadow of Slime was being paralyzed by fear, and it unleashed its Hot-Blood skill and violently attacked the python’s head, causing the python to open its mouth.
The Shadow of Slime fell to the floor. It then stared at the Warrior Slime with its big round eyes, then jumped again at the giant python and continued attacking it.
Chen Bing had no words for the farce that was the two slimes.
The Warrior Slime seemed to treat the Shadow of Slime as if it was its brother.
As for the Shadow of Slime, Chen Bing initially thought that it was a shadow without any feelings. However, after observing it for these few days, Chen Bing’s opinion of it changed.
The Shadow of Slime did not have rich emotions like the Warrior Slime, but it actually had its own emotions and consciousness.
Especially based on what the Shadow of Slime did just now, Chen Bing felt that it must have wanted to have the giant python swallow it. However, it was being stopped by the Warrior Slime, and the Shadow of Slime did not continue trying to do that.
Chen Bing felt like the bond between them had become stronger.
The giant python could not pose a threat against Chen Bing and the two slimes, and it would be finished easily.
After killing it, Chen Bing leveled up to Level 12.
A treasure map came out of the treasure chest, and the sky started to darken.
Chen Bing brought the two slimes towards the location where the treasure was placed, killing monsters along the way to obtain Evolution Energy points.
Time soon passed 12 midnight.
Chen Bing opened his sixth treasure chest, and he leveled up to Level 16.
All six chests gave him treasure maps. He had gotten too many treasure maps at that point.
From the fourth chest onwards, the monster which guarded each treasure chest was Expert level, Level 16, and then it raised to Level 18 at the sixth chest.
Monsters that were about Expert level were good news because it meant that the treasure maps from the chests were about to max out. As Chen Bing absorbed monsters that were of Expert level, the attributes that he obtained would be higher too.
“Sadly, the level of the monsters around was too low.”
Chen Bing was frustrated that normally, the monsters on Treasure Box island were about Level 15. He could only reach Level 16 at most by killing the monsters and leveling up here.
However, the Warrior Slime was still on its way to Level 13, so he could still level up the Warrior Slime, and there was no need for him to search for treasure boxes in a hurry.
“Did the attributes of the Shadow of Slime get better?”
As he continued training to level up, Chen Bing realized something shocking.
After 12 midnight, the attributes for Shadow of Slime greatly increased.
There was an increase of 30% on all attributes, and no monsters would be able to penetrate its defense. Its damage also increased greatly, and it had a great attack speed when killing monsters.
What’s more was that the Shadow of Slime was extremely hard to detect when walking at night, as if it had stealth. Even when it was in close proximity to alert monsters, they did not realize its presence.
Awesome!
Shadow of Slime has such power at night!
Chen Bing figured out that other than him, no one else knew that Shadow of Slime had such great qualities. Even if other players had a Shadow Slime, the Shadow of Slime produced would not be able to survive past 12 midnight on that day.
The Warrior Slime too realized something was different about the Shadow of Slime. It jumped beside the Shadow of Slime at times to find out what happened.
Not only the Warrior Slime, but Chen Bing was also curious about it too.
There seemed to be some secret behind the Shadow of Slime.
…
After the attributes for the Shadow of Slime greatly increased, the rate of killing monsters was unprecedented.
The Warrior Slime’s level started increasing gradually. At 4 in the morning, it reached Level 15 and its attributes were greatly increased.
At the same time, Chen Bing found its seventh, eighth, and ninth treasure boxes.
The monsters which guarded the treasure boxes reached Level 20.
Level 20 monsters were very strong, but they were still no match for Chen Bing.
“Another treasure map. The next box will be the tenth box; it’ll definitely be something other than that!”
Grabbing the ninth treasure map from the treasure box, Chen Bing quickly walked towards the next treasure box.
Chen Bing was wrong. It was still a treasure map.
Not only the tenth box, the fifteenth box, but even the twenty-fifth box were treasure maps!
Damn!
Goddamn it! This treasure box island is full of treasure boxes!
But none of them gave anything special!
Chen Bing felt himself slowly going crazy!
However, he could not stop digging for treasure boxes, as if a poker player who wanted to continue playing even though all he did was just lose.
He would not stop until he had opened the last treasure box there was!
The level of monsters that guarded the treasure box was capped at Level 20 and would not go any higher.
After opening more than twenty boxes all at once, Chen Bing leveled up again.
The sky was starting to light up. Chen Bing walked towards his thirtieth box.
“The treasure this time is at the center of the island?”
As the sky slowly turned bright, Chen Bing looked at the location of the treasure and said this to himself.
The previous treasures of the boxes were scattered around the islands.
There was a giant tree in the middle of Treasure Box Island. The thirtieth treasure box was located in the middle of the island, just under the giant tree.
Chen Bing did not need to dig for the treasure box. He could already see it from afar beneath the giant tree.
However, Chen Bing was shocked upon looking at the treasure box.
It was an ultra-big treasure box, about the size of an entire bed!
Nobody ever mentioned a treasure box that big!
What could be inside the treasure box!
He felt that it was worth the journey to the treasure box. Could it be that the treasures inside the 29 previous boxes were all in this large treasure box?
Right! It has to be that way!
Chen Bing walked towards the treasure box carefully. There normally would be a BOSS for such a big treasure box.
However, that did not appear to be the case. He reached his hand out toward the treasure box and touched it, and still, no BOSS jumped out.
“That’s strange. It’s fine though, let’s open the box!”
Chen Bing felt that it was strange. However, the treasure chest was waiting for him to open it, and Chen Bing did not hesitate.
Then, he realized that the treasure chest could not be opened. Upon a closer look, Chen Bing realized that there was a groove on the treasure box. The groove was about as big as the treasure map he had in his hand.
As he placed the 29th treasure map on the groove, the treasure box slowly opened with a clicking sound.
Chen Bing looked into the box, and he realized there was a … bed in the chest!
It’s a bed!
And there’s a beautiful lady on it!
