Digging To Survive: I Can See Hints Chapter 39
Advertisement
The entire catacombs world was incomparably huge.
In the first few days, it was already not easy for two players to meet each other.
It was even more difficult for individuals to meet each other one after another.
Xaviera first met the retired scout, Charles, and then they met the young man, Paul.
Charles had been a soldier and had extraordinary fighting abilities.
On the first day, the first underground cave he dug, he met a crypt creature.
It took him a lot of effort to kill the crypt creature.
After that, he had to fight two battles to the death every day. Now, his strength was extraordinary, and he also had runic weapons.
Paul and Xaviera were relatively weaker, but after meeting Charles, they gradually improved.
It seemed that no matter what the two encountered, the well-informed Charles would definitely be able to solve it.
But what was going on with the castle in front of them now?
They looked at Charles, hoping that Charles would be able to give an explanation.
The resolute-looking Charles shook his head and said in a deep voice, "This is also the first time I've seen a castle. I've never seen it in the catacombs before."
...
"Brother Charles, what should we do? Are there game NPCs inside?" Xaviera said in a low voice.
She was afraid that if she made too much noise, it would alert the creatures in the castle.
Such an ancient castle suddenly appeared in the catacombs. There was something strange about it.
"I think it's possible."
The young Paul nodded.
Charles thought for a moment and said, "Don't go near it first. Take a look around the castle. If there's danger, immediately evacuate this place. Also, search the nearby area to see if there are any treasure chests."

"Okay."
The other two agreed.
"Let's go."
Seeing that the two of them were nervous, Charles smiled and said, "Don't worry, there's no danger here. There might be more resources hidden in the castle!"
The three of them did not think about other players at all.
Everyone had the same runic base. How could a broken stone house be a tall ancient castle?
"Follow me."
Charlie walked in front.
Among the three of them, he had the best equipment. He had a runic dagger and a layer of perfect light armor on his body.
Xaviera also had a runic dagger.
Because the runes were not enough, Paul could only use a fine straight dagger.
The three of them first came to the front of the ancient castle.
The door was locked tightly.
They began to circle.
They were still more than ten meters away from the ancient castle when Xaviera stopped and twitched the tip of her nose.
"Do you guys smell something special? It seems like..."
"Instant noodles?"
Yes, it was instant noodles!
The three of them exchanged glances and couldn't help but swallow their saliva.
They had eaten barbecued meat and buns recently, but to be honest, the stimulation to their taste buds was very dull.
There were no condiments!
The three of them couldn't bear to exchange food and drinks for condiments, so they had been in a stalemate.
Now that they smelled something that seemed to be instant noodles, they salivated wildly,
Their stomachs couldn't help but grumble.
"It shouldn't be instant noodles, right?"
"It might be another smell. Continue investigating!"
The three of them followed the outer perimeter and arrived on the other side of the castle.
"Quick, look, up there!"
Paul's eyes were sharp, and he saw a figure on the second-floor balcony.

Xavier rubbed his eyelids and exclaimed, "It looks like... Klein!"
"What?"
Charles and Paul were shocked. "Why is he here?"
"Uh, I'm not sure, but he seems to be making lunch. Could he be making instant noodles?"
The three of them guessed that it was possible, and their eyes widened.
'F**k, this guy is was carefree. It makes people envious!'
'Should I get close to him?'
'Why not? Maybe I can pull him into the team. Also, I have to ask him about this ancient castle!'
Charlie made a decision and took the lead to walk closer to the ancient castle.
On the balcony, Klein was humming a tune as he cooked instant noodles.
He unintentionally lowered his head.
When he saw the three figures approaching, he frowned slightly and muttered, "Another bunch of players? What a coincidence. They actually appeared at this time."
Furthermore, there were three of them.
If they were up to no good, he would have to delay his mealtime later.
Below, the only woman shouted, "Excuse me, are you Klein?"
Klein placed his hands on the handrail and looked down at the three of them. He said coldly, "Is there something the three of you need? If there's nothing, I want to eat instant noodles. Don't disturb me."
There was a moment of silence.
After a moment, Charles said loudly, "Mr. Klein, I'm Charles. I've heard a lot about you! These are two of my teammates. I would like to ask you if you are willing to join our adventuring team."
"You should know that the deeper you dig into the catacombs, the more danger you will encounter. The crypt creatures will gradually become stronger. With teammates taking care of each other, the chances of survival will be higher."
Klein remained cold.
The three people below looked at each other.
"...Mr. Klein, can I ask you a question?"
Charles's attitude was always polite.
To be able to live a few days on his own, he was no simple character.
Klein paused for a moment and said, "Please leave as soon as possible after asking your questions."
Charlie said loudly, "Mr. Klein, is this castle a special building in the catacombs? We want to understand this information. If we encounter it in the future, we can be prepared."
He was a scout and placed great importance on information.
"It's not a special building in the catacombs." Klein changed his tone and said playfully, "Do you guys want to come in and take a look?"

Turns out she is in the future now and the world became a very different place from what it used to be.

In her journey to figure out who she was, what happened to the world, and how much time has passed, Kali will discover ancient ruins, fight horrendous creatures, find how humanity has fared in this harsh world and meet with droids that walk the land as remnants from the technology that the world once had. In this story, you are going to see Litrpg elements such as a system with panels, skills, and stats (Although not inside a game, the main character has access to information about her growth much like an RPG). Survival elements will be present but it won't be the focus of the story, but crafting and enchanting on the other hand are going to be quite prevalent.
