This time, the system directly teleported Lin Ye to the depths of the maze.

Lin Ye didn't immediately use the special room teleportation card. He planned to explore the vicinity first, looking for some locked rooms, and then use the card when a large area of accumulated water blocked his path.

Lin Ye was lucky this time and quickly encountered a locked room.

He used the red key to open the door. Inside was a room half-covered in accumulated water. Some incomplete pieces of corpses were soaked in the water, wriggling from time to time.

A metal treasure chest was half-submerged in the water and half on the floor.

Lin Ye activated his spiritual energy, pushing the treasure chest out of the water, and then cautiously opened it.

Inside were only some miscellaneous items: five bottles of low-level nutrient solution, two low-level spiritual energy crystals, a low-level space crystal, and a metal key to a special room.

Some of the items were already soaked in a red liquid, indicating that the metal treasure chest was not waterproof.

Lin Ye collected the items that hadn't been touched by the red liquid. Just as he turned to leave the room, behind him, the two bottles of low-level nutrient solution that had come into contact with the red liquid suddenly grew sharp limbs and pounced towards Lin Ye's back with extreme speed.

If it had been before going to the stronghold to study, even if Lin Ye had sensed them, he wouldn't have been able to react in time. But now, his spirit had been strengthened by the Seed of Spirit, allowing him to quickly outline runes behind him, creating a fragile spiritual energy shield.

The two nutrient solution monsters easily tore through the spiritual energy shield, but this was enough time for Lin Ye to react.

Lin Ye didn't turn around, but drew a spiritual energy pistol and fired several shots at the two nutrient solution monsters from under his arm.

Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang!

The two nutrient solution monsters were shattered by the bullets, and their corpses fell to the ground.

The accumulated water rippled, as if something was about to crawl out from inside.

Lin Ye walked directly out of the room and closed the door, without even checking the corpses.

These two monsters once again reminded Lin Ye not to get close to those red liquids. No one knew what kind of ghosts were hiding inside.

After leaving the accumulated water room, Lin Ye found several more locked rooms, each containing a Tier 1 creature and a metal treasure chest. The chests mostly contained miscellaneous items, as well as a few Tier 1 spiritual energy items.

Now Lin Ye didn't have much need for Tier 1 spiritual energy items. Unless they had special effects, using ordinary Tier 1 spiritual energy items would only waste his spiritual energy.

After encountering accumulated water areas multiple times in one area, Lin Ye used the special room teleportation card.

With a flash before his eyes, Lin Ye appeared in a red room that was a full 70 square meters.

But Lin Ye didn't think the room was very big. Instead, he felt it was a bit crowded, because the room was packed with 15 Tier 1 blood corpses.

In addition, a blood-red monster that looked like a crocodile was hanging from the ceiling of the room. Some blood-colored threads were binding its limbs. As time passed, the threads gradually faded, and the monster was about to break free from its control.

Lin Ye directly fired a shot at the monster in the sky, but the bullet was blocked by a layer of spiritual energy protection. As the spiritual energy protection appeared, the threads disappeared even faster.

The fifteen Tier 1 blood corpses pounced on Lin Ye at the same time. Lin Ye put the pistol back in his waist and stood in place, sensing the crocodile monster's body structure.

The blood corpses crashed into the spiritual energy shield with spiritual energy blades, piercing their own mutated organs.

Lin Ye didn't even move his feet, but only changed the angle of the spiritual energy shield a few times, and solved them.

All fifteen Tier 1 blood corpses died, and all the blood threads on the crocodile monster's body disappeared.

Lin Ye took out the spiritual energy rifle from the loot space in advance and emptied the magazine at the crocodile monster falling from mid-air.

Pa pa pa pa pa pa pa pa…

The crocodile monster twisted its short limbs in mid-air, forcibly using the hardest part of its skin to block most of the bullets.

Lin Ye conveniently engraved a Collapse rune on the last bullet in the magazine.

But the Collapse bullet had a general effect on this relatively stable creature, far less effective than on those unstable creatures and some spiritual energy protections with unstable structures.

Lin Ye released the spiritual energy rifle, pulled out the Red Blade and instantly appeared on the other side of the room. The upper half of the crocodile monster standing in the middle of the room slid down, and the upper and lower halves fell to the ground separately, and the mutated organs in the body were also evenly cut into two halves.

Lin Ye had conceived this strike long ago, but this was the first time he used it in actual combat.

Just now, he simultaneously activated the speed, strength, cutting, and protection runes, and each rune was used more than once.

Specifically, the protection, speed, and strength runes engraved on the Nightfall Dress.

Plus the speed and cutting runes on the Red Blade.

It was only with all of that that he solved the crocodile monster with one strike.

This strike placed extremely high demands on physical fitness and mental strength. Lin Ye's heart beat violently, and it took a while to return to normal.

A red metal treasure chest with a darker color and larger volume appeared in the center of the room. Lin Ye first dealt with the corpses and put the useful parts into the loot space before opening the treasure chest.

The treasure chest contained a Red Blade with a darker color and a large number of miscellaneous items.

There were 10 bottles of Tier 1 nutrient solution, as many as 5 low-level space crystals, a bunch of red keys, two mutated injections, and even a small pile of low-level spiritual energy crystals.

"…This isn't a treasure room, is it?"

The crocodile monster wasn't weak, but Lin Ye didn't think these few monsters were worth this price.

When cleaning up the loot, Lin Ye had a rare sense of happiness. This was probably the joy of opening a chest.

He planned to go back and post the pictures of opening the chest in the group, so that everyone could be happy too. It's better to share happiness than to enjoy it alone.

Lin Ye licked his lips, he was a little thirsty.

A familiar cup of yellow liquid suddenly appeared on the red floor.

Lin Ye picked up the orange juice and took a sip.

"Why is it thicker?"

Lin Ye felt that the taste of the orange juice seemed to have become richer.

This reminded Lin Ye of the cup of orange juice in the library. He didn't feel it when he drank it at the time, but in retrospect, it seemed to be a little fresher than ordinary orange juice.

'…Forget it, it's been rendered harmless anyway, who cares.'

Lin Ye drank the orange juice in one gulp. He could only trust the system now. If even the system was untrustworthy, then it would be difficult for them, the survivors, to survive in this dangerous world.

Leaving the treasure room, Lin Ye was directly teleported to an ordinary red corridor.

After exploring for a while, the countdown ended, and Lin Ye returned to the shelter.

…………………

Back at the shelter, the first thing Lin Ye did was pour the orange juice in the bottle into another container. If he guessed correctly, the value of this thing was hard to say.

However, this was Lin Ye's first time storing card derivatives, and he didn't know if this orange juice could last until tomorrow.
