Absolute Death Game-Chapter 376 - 21 Tomb Raider’s Talisman _3

```

He opened the inventory, Xiao Buli searched item by item. He really had gathered quite a lot recently. His inventory was filled with an array of items, varied and colorful.

That’s the one, Xiao Buli thought to himself with joy.

Tomb Raider’s Talisman (Necklace): Luck +1. Equipment Skill: Dragon Seeking Skills — With this item equipped, one can sense hidden ancient tombs and treasure chests within a 30-meter radius. Equipment Description: An amulet made from the claw of a pangolin, a badge of the Touch Gold Captain’s profession, it is said to bring good luck to its wearer.

He hurriedly equipped the Tomb Raider’s Talisman to check out its effects. Yi Xuan didn’t know why Xiao Buli paused—watching him fiddle with something, now looking worried, now laughing with joy. Thinking to himself, weren’t those facial expressions a bit too rich? Was this also a skill? But what use were these expressions? They surely weren’t for winking at the NPCs in the game.

He tentatively asked, "Xiao?"

But Xiao Buli had already finished equipping the item and quickly said, "It’s nothing, it’s nothing. Let’s go."

They hadn’t walked far when Xiao Buli suddenly veered towards a clump of trees. By the time Yi Xuan caught up, he saw an empty treasure chest and a beaming Xiao Buli. Thinking that his luck really wasn’t just ordinarily bad, two times in a row now, but as time went on, despair was no longer enough to describe Yi Xuan’s mood. At the end, the Yi Xuan behind the screen suddenly felt that the expression system was indeed very useful—if he could display expressions, he would surely be crying pitifully in this moment.

He wondered if it was because the wilderness was more untrammeled compared to the city, that’s why there were so many treasure chests. But why was it that every single one was discovered by Xiao Buli first? Was there not a single treasure chest that was fated for him?

If it were just him alone, even if he had roamed till nightfall without any findings, he would have simply shrugged it off as bad luck and not blamed society.

But the trouble was that there were two of them, and the other’s luck was bizarrely good. It was just like in childhood when scoring 99 on a test was a joy, until the rankings were posted and you found out a dozen others got a hundred, suddenly casting you as a bad student. Comparisons were the root of discontent. Compared to Xiao Buli’s fortune, Yi Xuan truly wanted to bash his head against a block of tofu.

Seeing that Yi Xuan stopped typing and talking to him along the way, Xiao Buli knew his spirit was dampened by not getting any Spirit Stones. Thinking to himself, sorry buddy, you might be playing the game just for fun, but I’m trapped here. My brothers are on the verge of facing Soul Departure Syndrome, and over there, Ancestral Dragon is watching like a hawk, plotting who-knows-what. It’s no exaggeration to say I’m a man tasked with world peace. Usually, matters involving world peace are quite serious. So, I can only apologize. Later, if I get Spirit Stones I can’t use, I’ll share some with you.

Lost in thought, suddenly, a rustling noise came from the bushes behind them. An ill wind howled, and almost without hesitation, Xiao Buli lunged towards Yi Xuan, and with a few tumbles, they both rolled to the side. Xiao Buli didn’t wait to stand up, his Skimming Shadow Steps making him vanish from sight, and Yi Xuan was quick too, disappearing into thin air with his Invisibility Technique.

Only then did Xiao Buli turn his head to look back, a chill sweeping over him.

Behind them, the grass was forcefully parted, making a half-meter wide path. A huge triangular snakehead was moving side to side as if searching for them. Its mouth with a bright red tongue flicked in and out continuously, and the triangular head had eyes arranged in two rows from the side of its mouth to the back of its skull, all round and bulging, casting a green ghostly glow. It was clearly not a creature to trifle with.

It was uncertain whether the snake used its eyes or tongue to perceive people. If it used its tongue, their Invisibility would be useless since snakes sense the particles in the air with it, meaning being invisible to this snake was as good as standing right in front of it.

Realizing this, Xiao Buli quickly activated Omniscient Eye to find Yi Xuan, who also seemed scared out of his wits. Xiao Buli tiptoed over to him, whispering in his ear, "I’m Xiao. Let’s get out of here quickly and quietly, without drawing attention."

Yi Xuan jumped at his voice. Wasn’t he invisible? How could he be seen? Xiao Buli’s abilities filled him with even greater surprise, but fortunately, he wasn’t foolish either, promptly typing, "Okay."

The two of them quietly stood up, eyes glued to the snakehead, and started stepping backward. Just their luck, Xiao Buli felt the ground shake under his foot as he accidentally stepped on a broken branch.

"Crack"—the sharp sound was especially jarring in the quiet environment, and without a moment’s hesitation, the snakehead whipped in their direction, lowering its head and gliding towards them swiftly.

Xiao Buli shouted, "Run!" and they both took off like the wind.

While running, Xiao Buli cast Mind Revelation on the giant snake, ’Lava Red Python,’ the name in deep blue, signifying a high-level elite. Good grief. It seemed like the end was near. If this had been in the Human Realm, coming across a high-level elite wouldn’t have even fazed Xiao Buli. But this was the Immortal Realm, with different rules from the Human Realm. Just from the size of the snake, he figured it could eat two Xiao Bulis and still need a midnight snack—it simply wasn’t enough to fill the gaps between its teeth.
