Digging To Survive: I Can See Hints Chapter 41
Advertisement
Although the illustration described that Gold-Digging Dwarves liked good food, what if it didn't suit their appetite?
Different regions of a country would have different tastes.
Some would not like it if it was spicy, while others would like it to be light and plain.
The real world and the catacombs world were needless to say.
Just because Little Fox liked to eat roasted meat didn't mean that Gold-Digging Dwarves also liked it.
The barbecued meat was quickly prepared.
He sprinkled the seasoning bottle and the air was fragrant.
Klein put away the barbecued meat and walked out of the runic base.
Shoo!
The runic base emitted a burst of light and disappeared on the spot.
Klein carried the shovel and walked towards an earthen wall.
On the other side.
Charles and company were constantly paying attention to Klein.
When they saw Klein walk out of the castle, they first stood nervously near the entrance of the passageway. If Klein were to attack them, they could quickly drill a hole and leave.
It wasn't a coincidence that the three of them chose to dig this mud wall.
With his rich investigative experience, Charles could easily deduce from some footprints that Klein had come out from this place.
Therefore, if Klein had any ill intentions and wanted to attack them, they could leave from this place, but Klein wouldn't be able to catch up.
Furthermore, the next catacombs was absolutely safe.
Suddenly, a ball of light exploded from the ancient castle.
Following that, it turned into beams of light that landed on Klein's body.
The ancient castle disappeared on the spot!
"This is..."
"Runic base!"
The three of them were dumbfounded.
Previously, the three of them had suspected that Klein was lying and firmly believed that it was a special building in the catacombs.

At this moment, seeing the familiar way of disappearing, the three of them were suddenly enlightened.
The ancient castle was Klein's runic base!
"Holy shit, why is his runic base different from ours?"
"Has it been repaired?"
"That's not right. I never saw someone in the chat channel saying that the runic base would turn into a castle after being repaired."
The three of them looked at Klein in a daze.
"Look, there's a fox beside him. Is it a tamed pet?"
"Oh? That seems to be the case! Can crypt creatures be tamed? We can try it in the future."
They noticed the little fox again.
Overall, Klein was too mysterious.
The three of them wanted to thicken their skin and ask, but they were afraid that Klein would do something to them. They watched helplessly as Klein dug a tunnel and disappeared from their sight.
Kacha! Kacha! Kacha!
Klein stopped after digging for more than three meters.
He turned his head and asked, "Little Fox, did they come over?"
Little Fox was squatting at the entrance of the cave. She secretly peeked out half of her head and peered at the three people not far away.
"Wu, wu!"
Klein received a response.
Calling twice meant no, and calling once meant yes.
"Alright, it looks like they really don't have any thoughts."
Klein shook his head and focused on digging.
He had already thought it through. If the three uninvited guests came, it meant that they had evil intentions.
It was a good time to make a move.
They could block him in the narrow passageway.
Soon, the passageway was dug open.
Klein put away his shovel and didn't even take out his weapon. He instructed Little Fox to not show any hostility after entering.

He stepped in and Little Fox followed behind.
The thirtieth catacombs.
The space wasn't large, and it was less than ten meters across.
Klein immediately noticed an ugly creature a few meters away.
Behind it was a large bag filled with items. It was round and bulging.
It was leaning against the large bag and nibbling on a dried, colorful biscuit with its tiny feet.
It was immersed in its delicious food.
The fellow was about 1.3 meters tall and had a pair of short legs.
Its skin was wrinkled, mostly brown, with many dark green spots.
It looked like a combination of a goblin and a dog. Its eyes were one big and one small, and its nose was long.
When the Gold-Digging Dwarf saw the situation, it hurriedly got up and stuffed the unfinished colorful biscuit into its mouth. Then, it grabbed the large bag that was as tall as it was.
He didn't immediately escape. Instead, he carefully observed Klein and the little fox.
If they were to make a move, he would immediately choose to escape.
Klein and Little Fox stood where they were.
"Wu, wu, wu!"
Little Fox cried out.
Her voice was gentle and filled with goodwill.
"Hello."
Klein took out the freshly roasted meat and shook it gently.
When the wind blew, the aroma of the roasted meat immediately wafted towards the Gold-Digging Dwarf.
It had already smelled the aroma and couldn't help but sniff. It stuck out its tongue and swept away the crumbs of the biscuits at the corner of its mouth.
Klein smiled and said, "I have no ill intentions. I just want to complete a transaction with you. Look, I don't have any weapons in my hands."
Klein revealed a smile that he thought was genial.
The Gold-Digging Dwarf was still highly alert as it mumbled a bunch of words.
Klein didn't understand a single word!
Klein looked at the Gold-Digging Dwarf and said, "Little Fox, can you communicate with him? Tell him that I'll barter with him for something."
He could only entrust it to Little Fox.
Little Fox cocked its head and thought for a moment before it whimpered again.
The Gold-Digging Dwarf didn't understand it very well, so he chatted for two minutes before the other party understood.
First, he pointed at the bag, then at Klein's barbequed meat.
"Yes, I'll barter with you."
Klein smiled.
The Gold-Digging Dwarf rolled his eyes as saliva dripped from the corner of his mouth.
A moment later, the Gold-Digging Dwarf nodded and opened the bag.
There were many items inside, and they were extremely miscellaneous.
Klein quickly scanned the bag and saw runes, gold, silver, jewelry, and a short sword.
"Trade runes!"
Klein took out a wind rune and simply gestured at the Gold-Digging Dwarf.
The gold-digging dwarf nodded his head repeatedly before reaching into the large bag to fiddle with it.
When he retracted his hand, there was a water rune.
"That works too!"
Klein's eyes lit up as he threw the roasted meat in his hand to the Gold-Digging Dwarf.
The roasted meat wasn't worth much.
By throwing it to the Gold-Digging Dwarf first, he could gain his trust.
That would give him a foundation for cooperation.
