Chapter 225 Super Treasure Chest

Under the cover of the night, Ming held a bundle of Sun Illuminating Flowers, walking through the wilderness and sniffing the air in search of the herbivorous creature.

"Why is there a smell of blood?"

"..."

Following the scent, Ming came across a clearing where the headless corpse of a wild animal lay.

Was it a deer?

[Eagle Eye]scan:

[Corpse infected with the zombie virus]

"Zombies..." Ming understood that the deer had fallen victim to a zombie's attack, and its flesh was already infected with the virus. His breeding plan had failed.

However, it seemed that in the absence of humans to eat, zombies would prey on wild animals as well.

Ming continued searching the area for about two hours but found nothing of value. After dismantling the RV, he dug up several hundred five-star Sweet Beets and many three-star and four-star Fodder Grasses, which he considered a decent harvest for this outing.

Additionally, the experience gained from killing the mutated catfish, along with the previously accumulated experience, was enough for him to level up to 38. Part of the experience came from the worm farm. With only two levels left, his dream was not far away.

He then returned to the riverside wetland and began digging holes in the muddy soil to catch earthworms. Although these earthworms were of the ordinary variety, placing them on the farm might inspire the mutated earthworms to grow more robust.

An accidental burst of ambition could also lead to evolution. Another hour later, Ming had filled twenty empty cans with earthworms and stored them in the warehouse, ready for planting upon his return.

"That should be enough~" Ming straightened up and rubbed his waist. No matter how high one's basic attributes were, it only increased one's abilities--long periods of bending over would still cause discomfort.

Returning to the tent, Ming found that the two giant eagles had finished cutting up the fish and were now sitting quietly in the grass, like two well-behaved children.

Ming rubbed their heads and picked up some fish from the ground to reward them for their hard work. However, the two giant eagles didn't eat, continuing to squat in the grass like soldiers.

"Good, doing good deeds without expecting anything in return~ You're indeed like me."

Ming rubbed the eagles' heads again before walking over to the remaining fish entrails. These soft tissues were earthworms' favorite, and it would be a waste not to use them.

As he turned around, the two giant eagles exchanged glances, then looked down at the fish hidden in the grass beneath their talons. One eagle, two talons, each holding a large piece of fish... They looked at each other again, their eyes filled with a sense of victory...

Ming stood next to the fish entrails and took out some storage boxes, which he had found in the King of the Arena dungeon.

Measuring 80cm in length, 45cm in width, and 40cm in height, they were made of plastic and had tight seals with secure buckles, making them excellent storage items.

As he began packing the fish entrails, Ming grabbed a plump section of the intestine and felt something fall to the ground.

"Hmm?" Ming looked down and smiled. To his surprise, it was a treasure chest:

[Super Treasure Chest x1, requires a Super Treasure Map to open]

Ming had initially thought there would be no more gains today, but finding a treasure chest in the catfish's intestines was an unexpected delight.

Looking at the fish pieces on the ground, Ming suddenly felt that this was a good catfish. He then began to work diligently...

Ten minutes later, he didn't find a second treasure chest. However, based on this experience and the area maps he had visited, he could temporarily conclude: there was only one treasure chest in each area, and the chests were most likely on the area maps.

"Right~" Ming looked at the treasure maps lying quietly in his warehouse, wondering why he hadn't thought of using them before.

Before leaving this place for another location, he would make good use of them. At this point, the sun had risen above the horizon. Checking the time, Ming realized that in three more hours, he would have spent a full 24 hours in this area and would be automatically teleported away. But why hadn't Alan shown up yet?

This time, things must not have gone smoothly, Ming thought, looking at the two giant eagles. "You might become orphans soon."

Then, he began picking up the scattered pieces of fish on the ground. As he collected them, he came to the two giant eagles and said, "Come on, move your feet~"

"..."

The giant eagles exchanged glances; they had been caught...

Next, Ming grabbed one eagle in each hand, swinging them back and forth... Since they were stealing with their talons, they might also be hiding some loot under their wings and feathers.

A moment later, it was evident that they hadn't hidden any fish pieces under their wings... Was that really all of it?

Perhaps... they had hidden them in their stomachs? Ming continued to swing them up and down in his arms.

At that moment, several beams of white light landed, and a group of men and women with red strings tied to their left wrists walked out. They collectively stared at the blood-covered man who was swinging the two giant eagles.

They were astonished, as the two five-star Lord-level giant eagles were like little chicks in his hands...

This guy was quite frightening.

There was no verbal communication between the two parties, only the gazes of the group focused on the man playing with the Eagles.

After a while, Ming released the listless giant eagles and placed two boxes of fish and entrails next to them. He rubbed their heads and said, "You're not allowed to steal from your people in the future, got it?"

The giant eagles looked at the man in front of them, then at the two boxes of fish on the ground... They were bewildered... Indeed, this person's thoughts were hard to understand~ Their master's thoughts were much simpler...

Ming opened the lid, "Go ahead, eat. This is your reward. Remember, don't steal from your own people." After finishing, he turned to the people nearby, smiling at them. "Hello, everyone. Does anyone need some fresh fish meat?"

"..."

Everyone shook their heads simultaneously. At that moment, several more beams of white light descended, and Alan and others, including Marie, appeared.

"Marie, have you already finished the migration?" A little girl in the crowd, around 14 or 15 years old, came forward, carrying a large hammer in her hand.

Ming looked at her and thought to himself, how violent are the kids in Zone 31?

"Yeah, Alan will take you guys back in a bit," Marie replied. Then she looked at Ming, who was squatting next to the giant eagles, "We'll need to use your tent again."

"Sure, no problem," Ming nodded. He always believed that helping others was a valuable treasure.

As they went inside to change their clothes, Alan came over and patted the two giant eagles that were eating the fish meat. He was relieved that they were still alive and had food to eat. Their big brother had finally become gentle...

"How many people have you managed to migrate in one day and one night?" Ming took out two more boxes of fish and entrails from the warehouse and pushed them over to Alan.

"The two puppet masters from our zones have been working together, so our efficiency has been better than expected," Alan said, storing the two boxes of fish and entrails in his warehouse. He continued, "We've already moved more than 300 people. If everything goes smoothly, we should definitely complete the migration before the shared arrival the day after tomorrow."

"Good to hear," Ming said.

[Your frogs squat in the corner of the tent... watching...]
