Digging to Survive: I Can See Hints - Chapter 498
Chapter 498: The Mysterious Girl
Her hands and feet seemed to be tightly bound by iron chains, making her unable to move.
This was because the prolonged capture had caused her bodily functions to rapidly decline, turning her into a hemp pole.
“Who… Who are you?”
The one who had raised this question was the girl.
Her voice was hoarse and unpleasant, as though she hadn’t spoken for a long time.
Klein was somewhat curious. He should have asked for her identity, but he had put the cart before the horse.
Klein looked at her and said, “My name is Klein. I came here specially to slay a Beast of Heaven. Why are you trapped here?”
The chains on the girl’s hands and feet made a rustling sound. In fact, she had witnessed everything that had just happened,
After being trapped here for so long and having her savior fall from the sky, she was naturally delighted.
“I, I don’t remember who I am anymore. I don’t know why I’m trapped here. I just feel like I’ve been here for a very long time…”
James frowned slightly. “Klein, be careful. Something isn’t right. Something is indeed not right…”
The girl was chained here. She was most likely the prey captured by the Beast of Heaven.
Based on that fellow’s temperament, it would have probably eaten her to the bone.
How could it possibly keep a skinny and shriveled prey in his territory?
From what the girl said, she had been trapped here for a long time.
Furthermore, she had tried to use amnesia to lower their vigilance. This was clearly a typical trick of a bad person!
But for some reason, Klein felt that the girl wasn’t lying.
He raised the Endless Sword in his hand and cut open her chain.
At the same time, he felt a huge shock in his hand. The chains that bound the girl were actually made from the scraps of the meteorite fragments.
What kind of identity did this girl have? Was there a need for her to be so closely guarded?
The girl seemed to have been kneeling there for a very long time. She struggled to stand up, but her body was powerless as she fell back with a thud.
“You, are you here to pick me up?”
Klein wanted to agree, but first, he couldn’t even confirm the identity of the nameless girl who had suddenly appeared.
No one could predict what would happen if he rescued her,
Secondly, the girl did seem to have forgotten her past. Even if he rescued her, she would have nowhere to go. She still needed Klein to arrange everything properly for her.
However, Klein couldn’t just watch as the girl left to fend for herself, could he?
He asked, “Do you really not remember anything?”
The girl nodded timidly. She couldn’t even remember her own name.
It was truly pitiful. Klein reached out to help the girl up and realized that her body was already extremely fragile.
‘Forget it. I’ll be a good person until the end. I’ll save her first.’
Ever since the Beast of Heaven was killed, the instability of the space had been completely resolved.
The earthquake caused by the wrath of the Beast of Heaven had also vanished without a trace.
Klein and James returned to the primordial space with a lot of high-grade materials and an unknown girl.
Seeing the extremely miserable-looking girl, everyone surrounded her to ask about the situation.
The girl seemed to be frightened as her eyes widened in horror. She curled up behind Klein.
“Klein, this girl seems to have stuck to you. Are you planning on bringing her along?” Klein quickly denied.
Klein looked at her and said, “How is that possible? It’s extremely inconvenient for a man like me to bring a girl along. My movements will also be greatly restricted in the future!”
However, the girl seemed to have her eyes set on Klein. She grabbed his clothes tightly and didn’t go anywhere.
Klein sighed softly. ‘Forget it, I’ll adopt her for a period of time.’
‘When the girl recovers her memories, she will naturally recall the past. At that time, I will let her leave to the other places she should have gone to.’
Just as Klein was about to take a break, an accident happened again.
This was because the primordial space where everyone was was not only small, but also had limited resources.
Therefore, other than Klein and James, the others were also exploring the space, preparing to go to other catacombs to take a look.
There was nothing wrong with the various encounters that would occur in other caves,
However, he didn’t expect a few huge ice blocks to fall from the sky and crash into the flat ground. Klein was scared and took a few steps back.
Something like an ice block falling from the sky had never happened before.
However, when Klein looked carefully, he realized that it wasn’t a huge block of ice that had fallen. Instead, it was a few living people who had been passively trapped in the ice!
These people had their eyes wide open, and their faces were filled with horror.
They had all sorts of expressions and actions, but without exception, they were all wrapped up in thick ice. Among them, they looked like human-shaped ice sculptures in performance art.
There were already screams from the crowd.
It was probably because there were relatives and friends among the ice sculptures.
Seeing the scene in front of them, everyone had shocked expressions on their faces.
After asking, Klein found out that these people had formed a team to open up the catacomb above them in order to search for some resources.
However, they didn’t expect that all of them would be frozen into popsicles and thrown down.
It was unknown whether the people trapped in the ice were alive or dead.
Klein looked up and the system immediately gave him instructions. The catacomb above them was actually an extremely cold polar space.
Even if it was cold, most people could endure it.
However, in this space, there was a large river filled with pure white ice shards. These people had probably fallen into the river and ended up in this state.
James found it strange. In such a freezing space, the first thing anyone thought of when they entered was to quickly leave.
Why were these people still insistent on entering the river?
At this moment, Klein received another notification through the system. It turned out that a Black Lotus Flower had bloomed in the middle of this space.
This lotus flower was the legendary Black Lotus Flower that could be used to refine the Immortal Divine Medicine.
The Immortal Divine Medicine only existed in legends. No one knew if it really existed.
Furthermore, it was said that the ingredients and methods to refine the Immortal Divine Medicine were extremely complicated.
Klein did have the recipe, but every ingredient in the recipe was extremely rare and difficult to obtain.
The moment he obtained the recipe, Klein almost gave up on the pursuit of the Immortal Divine Medicine.
Although it was said that the legendary Immortal Divine Medicine could heal the dead and give people the ability to be reborn. The raw materials were also top-notch and hard to find.
At this moment, Klein finally understood why these people had entered the river one after another.
They had entered the river to collect the Black Lotus Flower that was blooming in the center.
Even if they didn’t use it to refine the Immortal Divine Medicine, they could use it to exchange for more precious materials and resources.
At this moment, some people were already questioning their souls.
Could these people still be saved? How could they melt such a hard piece of ice?
Some people suggested that they build a fire and put the ice on the fire to melt naturally.
Some people thought that if they put it on the fire to roast, wouldn’t that person also be roasted?
