Chapter 17 The Treasure Chest in the Tyrannosaurus Rex's Nest
"They're herbivores," Huang Tang whispered, "but even if they get stepped on, they'll turn into meat patties."
The three held their breath and waited until Liang Longqun was far away before continuing on their way.
Along the way, they discovered a considerable amount of supplies.
Steel, concrete, bricks, timber...
Some were in tree holes, some in rock crevices, and some were even next to a nest of dinosaur eggs.
Jiang Gelan wanted to grab the steel next to the dinosaur egg, but Huang Tang grabbed her arm.
"Don't move."
He pointed to a spot not far away.
A huge Maiasaura was staring at them warily.
Huang Tangchong waved his hand, indicating that he meant no harm.
The Maiasaura watched them for a while, then lowered its head to continue tending to its eggs.
The three bypassed that area and continued their search.
A few hours later, Huang Tang tallied up his harvest.
Steel × 480, Concrete × 860, Bricks × 420, Glass × 70, Timber × 90.
"Still a little short," he told Cai Lin. "Steel is 20 short, concrete is 140 short, bricks are 80 short, glass is 30 short, and wood is 10 short. The blueprints... we haven't found them yet."
"The blueprints can probably only be found in treasure chests."
Chae Rim frowned.
Treasure chests are extremely rare; there might only be a few in a single map.
However, the Jurassic World they are currently in is an incredibly vast area, and they have only explored the tip of the iceberg so far!
Huang Tang checked the time; there was only a little over an hour left before the Anywhere Door closed.
"We're heading back," he said. "We'll look around some more on the way, and if it doesn't work out, we'll come back another time."
The three of them turned around and started walking back.
After walking for about ten minutes, a voice suddenly rang out from the woods next to us.
"Hey bro, wait a minute!"
The three immediately became alert, and Huang Tang took out his crossbow and stood in front of the two women.
A man emerged from behind the tree.
This person has a very distinctive appearance.
There is a deep scar on the left side of his face, from the corner of his eye to the corner of his mouth, as if he had been cut by a sharp weapon.
The scars hadn't fully healed and were a dark red, making him look fierce and disheveled.
He raised his hands to indicate that he meant no harm: "Don't be nervous! I'm alone, I have no weapon!"
Huang Tang didn't lower his crossbow: "What's the matter?"
The scarred man glanced at the crossbow in his hand, then at the two women behind him, and forced a smile. "Brothers, I've seen you wandering around here for ages. You guys have the ability to make dinosaurs back, right?"
Huang Tang's heart skipped a beat.
Was this person secretly observing them?
"What do you mean?" he asked calmly.
The scarred man took two steps forward, then stopped and pointed in a direction in the distance: "I know there's a treasure chest nearby, a silver one. But that place is too dangerous; I can't handle it alone. I'd like to cooperate with you."
"What location?"
"A Tyrannosaurus Rex's lair," the scarred man said in a low voice. "There's a Tyrannosaurus Rex guarding it. I have a way to get the treasure chest out, but someone needs to lure the Tyrannosaurus Rex away. Your ability to make dinosaurs retreat is perfect."
Huang Tang remained silent for a few seconds.
A silver treasure chest?
This is a valuable item; it's highly likely to yield the blueprints for the five-story luxury villa they need!
"Cooperation is possible," he said, "but how will we split the profits?"
"Fifty-fifty," the scarred man said. "You distract the Tyrannosaurus Rex, I'll get the treasure chest, and we'll split the contents equally."
Chae Rim sneered, "If you take the treasure chest and run away, wouldn't we lose both our money and our people?"
The scarred man was prepared; he took out a backpack from his system space and threw it on the ground.
"This contains all my supplies and materials, which I'll leave with you as collateral." He opened his backpack for the three to verify. "This is enough for me to upgrade my three-story villa. If I break the contract, these things are yours."
Huang Tang glanced at the pile of supplies, then at the scarred man.
This person... seems quite sincere?
He glanced at Cai Lin.
Chae Rim shook her head slightly, indicating that she was being cautious as to a possible trap.
But Huang Tang already had a plan in mind.
"Okay." He nodded. "Lead the way."
The scarred man breathed a sigh of relief, picked up his backpack, handed it to Huang Tang, and said kindly, "Brother, don't worry about me. Before I entered this stupid survival game, I was a teacher."
"Um……"
Huang Tang put the backpack into his system space and followed the scarred man with the two women.
After walking for about twenty minutes, an open space appeared in front of us.
A huge nest sits at the foot of the mountain wall, built with thick branches and mud, and is at least ten meters in diameter.
Inside the nest, a Tyrannosaurus Rex was sleeping.
Its enormous body rose and fell with its breath, and occasionally it would snort, exhaling hot air that made the surrounding vegetation sway.
Deep within the lair, a silver treasure chest lay quietly.
"This is the silver treasure chest, I wasn't lying to you, was I?" the scarred man whispered.
Huang Tang nodded and asked, "The specific procedures?"
"Go provoke it in front of the lair and lure the Tyrannosaurus Rex out. Once it leaves the lair, I'll go around and get the treasure chest," the scarred man said. "After we get it, we'll meet up on that hill over there."
Huang Tang looked in the direction he was pointing and nodded.
"Let's begin."
He told Cai Lin and Jiang Gelan to retreat to a safe distance, and then walked towards the Tyrannosaurus Rex's nest.
The scarred man then quietly circled around to the other side of the lair.
Huang Tang picked up a stone and threw it forcefully towards the nest.
The stone hit the Tyrannosaurus Rex and bounced off.
The Tyrannosaurus Rex did not react.
He threw another piece, which hit it on the head.
The Tyrannosaurus Rex suddenly opened its eyes, its huge pupils turning and locking onto him.
"roar--!!!"
A deafening roar erupted as the Tyrannosaurus Rex stood up and charged towards Huang Tang.
Huang Tang turned and ran, pulling out a card as he ran.
Just as the Tyrannosaurus Rex was about to catch up with him, he suddenly turned around, stomped his feet, and shouted:
"Retreat! Retreat! Retreat!"
The Tyrannosaurus Rex froze and began to retreat.
One step, two steps, three steps.
But as soon as they retreated, they pounced on them again.
Huang Tang continued to stomp his feet:
"Retreat! Retreat! Retreat!"
The Tyrannosaurus Rex retreated again.
And so, Huang Tang ran and shouted, leading the Tyrannosaurus Rex step by step into the distance.
The scarred man seized the opportunity, rushed into the lair, grabbed the silver treasure chest, and ran.
While dealing with the Tyrannosaurus Rex, Huang Tang kept an eye on the movements over there.
He breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the scarred man get the treasure chest.
Just then, the scarred man suddenly stopped.
He turned around, clutching the treasure chest, and gave Huang Tang a strange smile.
Then he blew a sharp whistle.
Whoosh—!
Two figures suddenly emerged from the woods on either side.
A man and a woman, holding crossbows, aimed their arrows at Huang Tang and Cai Lin.
Cai Lin and Jiang Gelan's expressions changed drastically, and they quickly ran to Huang Tang's side.
Huang Tang also stopped, stomping his feet and shouting "Back off, back off, back off!" to keep the Tyrannosaurus Rex away, while coldly glancing at the scarred man:
"What do you mean?"
The scarred man smiled.
"Thanks, brother. I'll take the treasure chest. As for you guys..." He shrugged, "You're doomed."
