The primary purpose of going out this time is to get the artifacts refreshed in the cave, and to look for elite creatures along the way.
Currently, among the four caves that Li Xiao has explored, there is no need to go back to the southern cave on the archipelago and the volcanic cave at the foot of the volcano.
Even if the artifacts in these two caves were sacrificed, the best rewards would only be legendary bows and legendary leather armor, which were far behind Li Xiao's level.
Only the artifacts in the lava caves in the southeast and the swamp caves in the swamp area can be used as rewards from sacrifices.
However, the lava cave is too hot and the lava flows across it. If you are not careful, you will be killed in a sea of fire.
In comparison, although the artifacts in the lava cave are good, the price/performance ratio is too low, so it is better not to go there for the time being.
Now only the artifacts in the swamp cave are the most valuable, and with the standard rifle in hand, the two men's combat power is far greater than before. This cave, which was originally full of difficulties, is now like a playground.
After going all the way, spending a few clips, and killing many blind and dangerous creatures, I finally got the artifact.
After entering and exiting, it only took half a day for the two of them to return to the surface again. Without stopping, they soon came to the green obelisk.
Climb onto the metal platform and sacrifice the artifact... a familiar process.
The beam of light reaching the sky slowly lowered the purple treasure box, which made Li Xiao feel a little regretful.
"Golden legends are hard to come by. It would be nice to have epic ones." He comforted himself and opened the treasure chest.
"Yeah! Not bad!" Seeing that three of the four drawings were extremely useful, Li Xiao suddenly grinned.
With these blueprints in hand, the overall combat strength has been slightly strengthened!
However, these blueprints must be the strongest ones that can be produced in the swamp cave. If he wants to go further, Li Xiao will have to explore more difficult caves.
The next cave is, of course, the "Devil's Cave" on Alcatraz Island.
On the way back, Li Xiao and the two rode the pterosaurs and flew very slowly, flying as low as possible so that they could search for traces of elite creatures on the ground.
The hard work paid off. When he crossed the central island and arrived around the northern mountains, Li Xiao saw an elite Tyrannosaurus rex hunting on the grassland from a distance.
Take a closer look at this elite Tyrannosaurus rex. It is much larger than the average Tyrannosaurus rex. It has a big mouth and powerful muscles. It exudes a dangerous atmosphere!
Li Xiao was very excited - if he could kill the elite Tyrannosaurus Rex, he would gain a huge amount of experience! It would be easy for him to advance to five or six levels in a row!
However, when he calculated the ammunition and weapons in his and Zhou Qing's inventory, the two looked at each other and shook their heads.
If you want to kill this elite Tyrannosaurus rex, it will probably be too much for you to rely only on the legendary rifle and the original standard rifle.
Even a high-end grenade would not be able to cause any effective damage to that huge body unless it was thrown directly into its mouth.
Grenade is still suitable for dealing with large numbers of creatures that gather together.
Okay, I can’t afford to offend you, next...
After Li Xiao marked this place on the map, he controlled the Ancient God Pterodactyl to fly away from here.
He must kill this elite Tyrannosaurus rex, but not now...
The two flew along the river between Shuangfang Mountain and Yuanfeng Mountain, trying to find another high-value elite creature——
The elite creature was not found, but a strange creature caught Zhou Qing's eyes!
"Look there! What kind of creature is that?!"
Looking in the direction pointed by Zhou Qing, what caught his eye was a snow-white, elegant Pang horse... No, that was not a Pang horse. Looking at the slender threaded bone spur on its head, it turned out to be a pang horse.
A unicorn!
"That's a unicorn?!" Zhou Qing looked at Li Xiao blankly, "How can there be a mythical creature like a unicorn in this world?"
Li Xiao shrugged, "We already have a fire-breathing Tyrannosaurus rex, so what's so strange about a unicorn?"
Zhou Qing turned his head and thought for a while, it seems...that's the truth.
"Whether it's the Ark game or the Ark world, it's actually a huge world that integrates many elements, including future alien technology and science fiction..." Li Xiao pointed to the obelisk tower hanging in the sky in the distance.
"There is also the magic of mythical creatures, such as the fire-breathing alarm clock, or the elegant unicorn in front of you."
Li Xiao took a long breath and continued: "Another example is the boss we will face in the future. Do you think a giant spider three or four stories high is a realistic creature?"
When Zhou Qing heard Li Xiao's words, his eyes suddenly darkened and he looked very confused.
"So, are we just living in a virtual fake world?"
"Who knows?" Li Xiao noticed Zhou Qing's abnormality. He grabbed Zhou Qing's hand and put it on his chest.
"Then what does it matter? You can feel my real heartbeat, and I can feel your temperature, which means we are real! Whatever else, what do you care about?"
Zhou Qing looked at Li Xiao, his eyes gradually softened, and his confusion disappeared.
Yeah, whatever it is?
…
"Let's go down and meet this unicorn..."
In order not to disturb the unicorn, the ancient god pterodactyl slowly landed in the distance. Li Xiao, Zhou Qing and Li Xiao walked quietly to a boulder more than 20 meters away from the unicorn.
This is the first time Li Xiao has seen a creature like a unicorn. In the game, unicorns are beautiful creatures that are harmless to humans and animals. However, this is a different Arkworld from the game after all. To be on the safe side, you need to test it out.
"Just stay here and stare at it. Don't get close to it. I saw some wild radishes in the forest over there. I'll collect some to see if I can feed it."
After finishing his words, Li Xiao walked towards the woods behind.
Unicorns are noble and elegant creatures, and they can be tamed, but don’t think about it now. If I remember correctly, in the game this guy only eats feed made from griffon eggs, and griffins are not a creature that has reached full level.
Law tame.
Not to mention that the griffin regards every egg as life...
You can imagine how difficult it is to tame a unicorn.
I just hope I can use carrots to please it...
When Li Xiao dug up the carrots, he found that Zhou Qing had long disappeared behind the boulder.
He looked around anxiously and realized that at some point, she had stood in front of the unicorn.
Judging from his expression, it is Zhou Yi Nanizi who is controlling the body at the moment.
Zhou Yi's silvery laughter kept coming, and she saw the unicorn leaning down and rubbing its side face against her affectionately, while she boldly hugged the unicorn's snow-white neck...
This harmonious scene immediately made Li Xiao's heart drop.
The unicorn is indeed a peaceful and friendly creature. Even other carnivorous creatures will not attack it, let alone the kind-hearted Zhou Yi.
So he boldly stepped forward. Unfortunately, as soon as he appeared in front of the unicorn, the unicorn stood up suddenly and stared at him nervously.
"Carrots, here, I have carrots!" Li Xiao waved the food in his hand with a flattering look on his face, and kept walking forward, "I will give you carrots, if you let me touch it, just touch it..."
Looking at the carrot handed to him, the unicorn shook his head with disdain, and glanced at Li Xiao with a humane look of disdain.
I saw it nudged Zhou Yi again, then trotted away.
The pace became faster and faster, and in the blink of an eye, it had disappeared in front of the two of them...
