Chapter 1103: Energy Body

“Tragic Hole: Completion rate, 8.3%.”

“Participants: 38.”

“Completion rankings: Sirius Cross Army: 3.1%”

“Sword Finger: 1.8%.”

“...”

“Obtained reward: Sirius Cross Army, three-star potion, light crossbow…”

The tag showed such information the moment he entered the hole. Ye Zhongming placed it down and focused on his surroundings.

Tragic Hole was not as bright and clean as Puppet Ruins. This was a damp and dark underground tunnel.

Even if Bright Water World was another space, it was brightly lit, and one didn’t feel cooped up. But this place was different. After a few seconds, you would frown and wish you were out of here.

It was dark, damp, smelly. It was as if each corner was dangerous.

No one knew what the challenges here were.

The moment Ye Zhongming thought about it, he raised his hand. A white light shot out and imprinted into the top of the tunnel ahead.

There was a scream, which caused a painful expression to appear on their faces.

Mental energy disruption?

This discomfort disappeared in an instant. He took two steps and used the torch Gao Yi lit to see a pig-sized lifeform struggling on the ground. There was a patch of green blood that gave off a more intense stench that was similar to that of the air.

He pulled out the white dagger he got from the puppet ruins. This lifeform struggled before dying.

“Such strong lifeforce!” Zhao Xiangxue checked the corpse and saw that the dagger had entered from its head. It passed through the body and shot out from the other side.

In other words, this dagger pierced the monster from head to foot. Right, it was hanging on the top.

“This is a bat?” Zhao Xiangxue wasn’t afraid of such a monster, but as she was female, she felt slightly disgusted.

Ye Zhongming nodded. He felt like the mutated bat was ugly. But where were the rewards? Were there things like the wooden puppets?

“Boss, eyes.”

Zhao Xiangxue pointed at its head.

Ye Zhongming took a look, and as expected, the monster had two bright eyes. He dug them out and placed them in his palm. He felt like they were more like gems and not eyes.

He lept it and carefully dissected the monster, but he found nothing. It seemed like it didn’t carry any reward.

Ye Zhongming washed his hands with some water and observed the surroundings. He didn’t find anything and could only select one direction.

But after a few steps, he returned. He took Gao Yi’s torch and glanced at where the monster was hanging from. There was an indent. He jumped and touched. When he landed, they saw that he was holding a pearl.

“Illuminating Pearl.” Ye Zhongming recognised this item from the wheel. Its function was to provide light and it had a few light options just that you needed to inject mental energy.

Every squad would have one in the apocalypse, which was grey grade.

It seemed like there were rewards, just that they were hidden.

But he was slightly curious. This was the entrance, and anyone who passed would walk by. Why didn’t those people kill these monsters?

He looked at the top of the caves and saw many such holes. He understood. There were too many monsters here. The evolved that entered cleared them once, and this one got away and returned after fleeing.

The three of them continued forward. After a few minutes, the tunnel that was originally closed opened again, and a team of seven entered.

The seven of them were in a green battle uniform, each shining white. They wore helmets of similar grade, and each held a stick with a weird circular head.

“It is already 8.3%. Seems like our mission is simple.” The leader looked at the tag and took out a map.

“Here. Pay attention. There are more monsters here, so let’s kill more. Don’t greed for the rewards. Just raise the completion to above 10. Do you understand?”

He led everyone to leave in another direction.

Ye Zhongming naturally didn’t know that Five Ring Money was stopping them. The three of them progressed quickly. The monsters here couldn’t threaten them. If not for them needing to dig out the bats’ eyes and find the rewards hanging on the caves, they would be even quicker.

Half an hour later, their progression reached 2%, and they were ranked third.

As they went deeper, the few of them understood why the completion rates weren’t high. This place was huge and was complicated, like a maze. Even if you left a mark, they got dizzy from running around.

They discussed and decided to split up. If they find the place with the final reward, they will communicate through the battle contribution badge. If not, they would meet at the entrance once it opens again.

After discussion, the three of them found a tunnel to enter. Moments later, their completion rate continued to rise.

Ye Zhongming chose the longest tunnel nearby. He killed a few bats and heard some footsteps and some soft words. It was temporary, and it was obvious that people were fighting ahead while trying to lower their voices.

Ye Zhongming rushed over. After a hundred meters and two bends, he saw a dozen men team in a circle.

Ye Zhongming was stunned initially as there weren’t any enemies around. But his sharp senses told him that there were lifeforms. But they were special and were all energy lifeforms!

There were actually two types of monsters in the hole.

“Why are you in a daze? Come and help. Do you want to die together?” Seeing Ye Zhongming standing there, the evolved that were surrounded shouted.

Ye Zhongming heard them, but he didn’t even blink. He focused his mental energy on observing the energy bodies.

At the same time, he started to think quickly.

He recalled rumors about energy bodies and was thinking… Should he try?
