Chapter 0168 Who is the bird?

“From the looks of it, this should be a temporary facility.”
The ones responsible for this did not build the facility perfectly either, as the foundation of the whole building was very shallow. Even the cellar was untouched. Or else, this place would have collapsed long ago. Moreover, thanks to the influence of the underground ice apes, although the soil was not thick, the ice made the soil solid. This made it capable of supporting the whole building.
This should be the laboratory set up by the ones responsible and the several buildings that surrounded here were presumably their accommodation. After the opponent escaped, the underground ice ape stayed at the original location and developed. After all these years, they finally formed a community. However, due to their physical factors, they usually stayed underground, and only appeared during the winter period.
With the limited number of traces on the site, Su Hao managed to analyze a lot of information.
However, after he circled the room for half a day, Su Hao could only smile bitterly. How to put this, this building was built directly above the cellar. To access it was to destroy this place! With his current ability, such destruction was easy but… as there was only a single bottle of century old wine in the cellar, this trip would have been a waste if the item was destroyed.
“Let’s have a look first.”
Su Hao pressed the ground with his right hand.
Model analysis, start!
Terrain modeling!
Brush!
A faint, blue colored light ray appeared, and the model of the whole building appeared in his mind. Underneath the building, with a gap of less than a meter, laid the cellar. If not for Su Hao’s initial survey, who would have known that this huge building would be situated above an empty cellar!
Within that cellar, there were many simple tools.
The cellar had hoes, sickles, nails, shovels, brooms, and a series of items that were common to civilians. However, right at the centre and underneath a table, there was a loose wooden board. Underneath the board was an old fashioned, brown colored wine bottle. Unsurprisingly, this was the so called century old wine.
“In the secret compartment under the table… at the cellar’s southeast corner. If I choose to enter via the northwest corner, I definitely won’t destroy the wine bottle.”
Su Hao pondered for a bit and then he walked to the room’s northeast corner. He stared at the ground beneath his feet and viciously stomped it.
With his current abilities, a meter gap would still be nothing. Wasn’t this easy?
“Boom!”
A dull sound rang out but the ground remained the same.
Su Hao’s mouth twitched. He felt that his right foot was numb.
Damn it!
He forgot that the ground was solidified by the ice, otherwise, it would not be able to support this huge building.
Su Hao then went to the forest to wander. As he did so, he found some wood and went back to the corner of the room. After lighting the wood, the temperature of the room slowly increased. Especially for that corner. Under the flame, the ground that was solidified by ice began to soften. Vaguely, it seemed as if the room began to slightly shake. The ground looked to be loosened.
“Boom!”
With a stomp from Su Hao, the ground that was previously as solid as a rock instantly collapsed and a huge hole appeared as a direct result of his stomp.
“Splash!”
Countless items dropped down and a chasm immediately appeared in the room. The bottom of the chasm could be seen. The building’s foundations were only 2 meters and further below was a meter of solid ground. Underneath it was the cellar.
After putting out the fire, Su Hao leaped down.
As the cellar did not contain anything valuable, Su Hao directly went underneath the table. He flipped and opened the secret compartment to retrieve the ancient wine bottle. It was a brown bottle, decorated with old fashioned circular designs. This was the task’s ultimate item!
After seven days of hard work, he finally got it!
Outside the forest.
Many people rushed to come here again from time to time. However, the reputation of the grim reaper Dao Ba began to spread. Additionally, those headless corpses in the forest were solid evidence.
After entering the forest for 10 meters, heads will explode!
The whole forest had become a burial that no one dared to enter!
Therefore after a long period of silence, those people slowly left.
It was as if everyone had given up on the task, as accepting such a task before the grim reaper would be suicide. However, in the past few days, a hideous looking young man silently appeared here.
“Hehe, Dao Ba?”
This young man grinned and said, “Number one in Jiang He City? This is really a joke, dependence on firearms is eventually not the way of the king! I will show you that these so called weapons, before origin ability talent, would only be an amusing existence. Your task, I, Green Snake, definitely want it!”
Green Snake, with his origin ability score at 15, was a strange existence among hunters.
He could be considered the circle’s young talent. Before reaching 30 years old, he had reached 15 points of origin ability. More importantly, he had origin ability talent!
C class origin ability talent, lighting speed!
He was a graduate from an ordinary university. After graduation, he was not satisfied with an ordinary career. This was why he had worked hard to become a hunter and wandered at the outskirts of Jiang He City. After a few years, he established a decent reputation. Due to his possession of origin ability talent, many people were jealous of him.
“Whiz!”
A shadow flashed by and Green Snake instantly appeared within the 5 meters perimeter. Layers of his afterimages were left behind in the air.
“Brush!”
“Brush!”
“Brush!”
Green Snake entered the forest and disappeared like a ghost. He was confident that with his current speed, even Dao Ba would not be able to hit him!
