Chapter 30 The Dark Tomb Upgraded

Roar!

It was the deafening roar of the leader of the raging bears, and the sound echoed several kilometers away.

All the raging bears within a one-kilometer radius stopped what they were doing and rushed toward their leader upon hearing the roar.

In just a few seconds, the dozen or so wild bears that were closest to the leader had already reached him.

Behind them, there was still an endless stream of raging bears running over.

Even facing the threat of being held at knifepoint by Su Chen, the raging bears did not intend to choose to compromise.

“If that’s the case, then I’ll have to teach you a lesson,” Su Chen waved his longsword and said indifferently.

At the same time, the Raging Bear Leader sensed danger and quickly roared. More than a dozen raging bears over three meters tall raised their claws and slammed them toward Su Chen’s head.

Su Chen was not in a hurry. He waved his longsword, and a stream of sword qi was instantly released, cutting the oncoming raging bears in half.

In an instant, blood splattered everywhere and more than a dozen of them died instantly!

The next moment, Su Chen held the longsword against the Raging Bear Leader’s head. The extremely strong killing aura had the bear trembling in fear!

A large amount of blood spurted out and splattered on the body of the Raging Bear Leader and that was when they realized they were in trouble. The fella in front of them was extremely ruthless!

“So, will you be killed by me, or will you take me to your secret realm?”

The ground was covered in blood, the scarlet liquid coming from the leader.

However, the sharp sword forced it to calm down.

“I … I … Surrender … I’m willing to …”

The Raging Bear Leader replied in a language that Su Chen was not familiar with while prostrating on the ground and begged him not to kill it.

Su Chen took out the orc contract he had obtained from the swamp and signed the contract with the Raging Bear Leader.

“I bestow upon you the name Ge Xiong. When I’m not around, you will be in charge of the raging bears.”

Ge Xiong trembled as he stood up and led Su Chen into the secret realm.

It was a large cave with many materials including ores and energy crystals.

Su Chen had finally collected enough materials for the upgrade.

Just as they were about to leave, Ge Xiong suddenly called out to Su Chen and pointed to the innermost part of the cave.

“Inside there… There’s a very special thing …”

After stammering these words, Ge Xiong suddenly walked into the cave and soon came out with a sparkling object.

When Ge Xiong placed the special item in front of him, Su Chen’s eyes widened!

“Dragon Crystal!”

He even cried out in surprise.

Su Chen took the Dragon Crystal and placed it directly on the dragon egg.

For a moment, the dragon egg was like a piece of red-hot iron, and the Dragon Crystal was like a piece of melting ice.

After a short while, the Dragon Crystal completely melted and integrated into the dragon egg.

At the same time, a prompt appeared in Su Chen’s mind:

[ Dragon egg hatching progress +1%! Current progress: 1% ]

“There’s a Dragon Crystal here? Could this place have been a Dragon’s Nest?”

Su Chen made a guess and asked as he walked into the depths of the cave, trying to find another Dragon Crystal.

After looking around, he did not find another Dragon Crystal, but he was able to learn more from Ge Xiong’s explanation.

“So, this so-called secret realm was once a cave left behind by the dark Dragon. The things inside all existed because of the Dark Dragon.

“Since the Dragon Crystal can be left here, the Dark Dragon must have a way to speed up the incubation of the dragon egg. I just need to find the Dark Dragon,” Su Chen speculated.

Judging from Ge Xiong’s respect for the Dark Dragon, it should be a powerful existence. If one did not possess sufficient strength, they would most likely die if they rashly went to find the Dark Dragon. “Then the location of the Dark Dragon… Could the Dark Dragon be the Demon Dragon that stole the [ Spiritual Energy Crystal ]?” Su Chen asked Ge Xiong for the Dark Dragon’s location.

However, whether by chance or some other reason, the Dark Dragon and the Demon Dragon were both in Storm Valley.

In order to reach Storm Valley, they had to pass through the Land of Thorns.

The one who presided over the Land of Thorns was an existence that even Ghana did not dare to reach.

Su Chen had a premonition that this battle might be a battle of equal strength.

Not long after, Su Chen returned to the Dark Tomb and began to upgrade it.

In the deepest part of the nest, there was an Energy Center. After placing the materials he obtained and cores into the Energy Center, the Dark Tomb automatically began to upgrade.

[ During the Dark tomb’s upgrading, a random number of monsters of unknown level may appear. Please be prepared for defense! ]

A notification popped up in Su Chen’s mind. Before he could react, a strange vortex appeared in front of him.

A strange image appeared in the vortex which looked like another world. The strange creatures in the image seemed to be terrified of Su Chen.

A five-meter-long monster suddenly jumped out of the vortex and attacked Su Chen.

Upon closer inspection, this monster was clearly the one that had appeared on the other side of the screen.

Faced with danger, Su Chen did not hesitate and slashed with a sword qi. The monster’s body was immediately cut in two and it died on the spot.

At the same time the monster died, the Dark Tomb’s level had increased by 1%, and its space had expanded by quite a bit.

What was even more shocking was that after the monster died, it actually dropped loot!

Eventually, more vortexes appeared. A large number of monsters came from the vortexes and attacked Su Chen like a Dark Invasion.

The weapon in Su Chen’s hand did not dare to stop for a moment as he killed the seemingly endless fierce beasts.

Ten, fifty, a hundred …

When the last vortex disappeared and the last monster was killed, the Dark Tomb’s upgrade progress bar finally reached 100%.

There were mountains of monster corpses and a large number of spoils of war.

A prompt appeared in Su Chen’s mind:

[ Dark Tomb upgrade successful! ]

[ The space has been increased by 100%! Air recovery factor increased by 100%! ]

[ New attribute added to the tomb: A slow increase of occupants’ Potential! Daily Potential +0.1! ]
