After Kari left, Yang Tao brought Eric to the narrow and crowded tunnel of Level 2.
The roar of various machines quickly enveloped them, making one's calm mood irritable, but Yang Tao did not have such negative emotions, mainly because in his eyes, these roaring machines and the pipes in the tunnel were all 'treasures'.
"Eric, be careful!"
Because the sound was too noisy, Yang Tao had to raise his voice.
Eric nodded and responded loudly before taking out his notebook from his embrace.
Seeing this, Yang Tao did not say much, took out an iron pickaxe from his backpack, aid it at a nearby pipe, and struck it.
Cracks like mosaics spread, and in just three to five strikes, the pipe was knocked down.
However, what caught Yang Tao off guard was a sudden gush of black liquid, and even though he reacted quickly enough, he was still sprayed all over.
[Poison II 0:15]
"Eric, stay away from the black liquid, it's poisonous!"
After backing away, Yang Tao imdiately took out milk from his backpack and drank it, instantly clearing the [Poison] effect from his body.
He glanced at his health bar; in just two or three seconds, his health had decreased by 2 points.
"It's still damn poisonous."
If calculated based on an ordinary person's health of around ten points, this unknown black liquid, if sprayed on the body, would only take ten seconds at most.
He quickly dug a 2x2 space on the ground with an iron pickaxe, allowing the black liquid from the pipe to flow into it.
The liquid looked very viscous.
Yang Tao took out a wooden stick from his backpack, squatted down, and used the stick to pick at so of the liquid, observing it carefully.
This mysterious liquid, under the incandescent light, gave off a dark and translucent feeling, even emitting a faint purplish-black hue.
"Yang, how are you?"
"I'm fine, record that the liquid in the rusty pipe on Level 2 is highly toxic, specifically the one with a diater of about 30 centiters."
"Highly toxic?"
Eric nodded, recalling the large amount of green particles that had just erged from Yang Tao's body.
"You be careful…"
He had no way to help Yang Tao and could only obey Yang Tao's instructions, recording all this information.
He took out a bucket and used it on the almost full pool of toxic liquid, and in an instant, a large portion of the unknown liquid inside disappeared.
[Backrooms Industrial Crude Oil]
Value 30
???
'Industrial gold?'
Although Yang Tao had never seen real-world oil, he could swear that real-world oil was definitely not like this.
Looking at the [Crude Oil] gurgling out of the pipe, Yang Tao suddenly felt as if he had struck it rich.
Seeing that the [Crude Oil] in the pool was about to overflow, he quickly converted the [Crude Oil] in his backpack into points, then used an empty bucket to clear the pool.
A simple wave of action exchanged for 150 energy points, and the [Crude Oil] in the pool was already almost enough for another bucket.
Yang Tao felt that Level 2 was truly his treasure trove.
However, the roar of the surrounding machines began to sound a little off.
"Eric, I'll open the door for you, you stand in the Overworld first and observe, I feel sothing isn't quite right."
"Okay!"
Eric also had a vague sense of unease in his heart, and upon hearing Yang Tao's words, he walked into the summoned wooden door.
In just a few minutes, the liquid in the pipe gradually dried up, with the remaining black liquid dripping like a patient with an unceasing urge to urinate.
"It's gone??"
Yang Tao, unwilling to give up, tapped the pipe with his iron pickaxe, but only an empty echo sounded.
"Aren't we supposed to be infinite? How co it's gone after just this much? Ugh, pipes are so weak!"
He glanced at his energy value, which had already reached over eight thousand, and Yang Tao could do nothing about it.
Just as Yang Tao was about to break open other pipes to see what was inside, there was a loud bang, and this sound was just the beginning of a signal.
Surging flas, accompanied by continuous explosions, erupted from the tunnel, and all the incandescent lights overhead shattered.
"Eric, close the door!!!"
Not to ntion him, even Smile would not survive under an explosion of this magnitude.
The space was too confined, compressing the force of the explosion and making it even more ferocious. Eric's main trait was obedience, and he forcefully closed the wooden door.
The next mont, flas mixed with countless tal fragnts swallowed Yang Tao's figure.
In the Overworld space.
Eric stood behind the wooden door, full of worry, his mind still replaying the surging flas from earlier.
"Damn it, what a sha for my set of equipnt."
Hearing the sound, Eric turned back in surprise, only to see a displeased Yang Tao walking towards the so-called [Box] in the distance.
"Yang, you…"
"I'm fine, I didn't expect destroying the pipes would trigger a huge explosion."
Taking out so iron and wood from the [Box], Yang Tao remade a set of equipnt.
Fortunately, he had exchanged nearly nine thousand energy points; otherwise, he would have regretted it so much his liver would ache from this wave of loss.
Although his liver still ached now, it wasn't too unbearable. He had more than ten buckets in his backpack, after all.
"Let's go to Level 1 to find so supplies first, and then go back to Level 2 in an hour."
Yang Tao's sudden appearance in the space was sowhat unimaginable to Eric.
Originally, he thought it was already exaggerated enough that Yang Tao could summon a wooden door to achieve spatial movent.
But now, Yang Tao actually demonstrated the ability of instant movent, and across different spaces at that.
Leaving aside Yang Tao's offensive capabilities, this kind of abnormal escape ability had already made him invincible.
If Yang Tao knew Eric's thoughts, he would definitely scoff: 'My spatial ability can only do fixed-point passive teleportation…'
Pushing the second-hand scooter bought from the "Detective Conan" world, Yang Tao returned to the familiar Level 1, feeling like he was back ho.
"Fortunately, I didn't pursue speed and buy a good motorcycle back then…"
He bought four second-hand scooters in one go, mainly because they were cheap.
The price of these four was not even half the price of a new motorcycle.
"I still need to find a way to make so money…"
Although the underground expanded several layers of space during the last upgrade, no new minerals had spawned yet.
Riding the small motorcycle with Eric, the empty abandoned warehouse echoed with the sound of puttering.
"Yang, there's a supply box on the shelf over here!"
The two didn't go too far before they found a supply box placed on a shelf.
Yang Tao parked the scooter and glanced at the map.
'No Entities?'
Every ti they found a supply box, they would always encounter an Entity, so the sudden absence of an Entity made Yang Tao sowhat disbelieving for a mont.
"Be careful, I'll go check it out."
Handing the motorcycle to Eric, Yang Tao walked over and opened the supply box.
