“Ding dong! Automatic check-in has been enabled. You have obtained the ultimate combat technique!”

“Host, are you ready to sign in?”

It was the next morning. Before Su Chen was even fully awakened, he heard the system sign-in sound through his ears.

“System, I’m aware that combat techniques are different in every country. What type did I obtain?”

“Host, you have obtained the ultimate combat technique. All types of techniques in this world will be fused into your body. No matter what kind of opponent you encounter, you’ll be able to optimize your techniques and deal with their lethal moves. When this skill is fused into your body, you will feel uncomfortable. Are you ready?”

“Yes, let’s begin!”

“Ding!”

Su Chen suddenly felt a large amount of information rush into his brain.

All kinds of fighting scenes flashed before his eyes, just like a movie.

His limbs started to heat up. He felt like punching and jumping.

However, he also felt that he was restrained by some kind of power and was unable to move.

Fortunately, this feeling only lasted for about twenty seconds.

Another “ding” could be heard.

Su Chen now felt that his body was as light as a swallow. Moreover, his muscles felt stronger than ever.

With this skill, Su Chen was no longer an ordinary person.

He could deal with this world more easily. There would be more places where he could visit to sign in.

Mr. Su, are you awake? It’s time for breakfast!”

“Good morning, Officer Li.”

Su Chen pushed open the door and welcomed Officer Li, who was carrying two big bowls of porridge and a couple of steamed buns.

The two of them sat opposite each other and ate their breakfast.

“Mr. Su, thank you so much for yesterday. What do you do for a living? Are you actually a beast tamer?”

Su Chen smiled without saying a word.

“Officer Li, I want to take a look at the wild boars’ nest. Do you know the location?”

Upon hearing that, Officer Li got scared. His steamed bun fell off his mouth.

“Mr. Su, that’s too dangerous. I don’t know what happened to the wild boars this year.”

Officer Li’s eyes were full of fear. The place where Su Chen wanted to go frightened him.

“They should be hibernating during this time but instead, they’re running rampant. You must have seen the news. They attacked the nearby villages and even caused casualties! I heard that they ate more than ten oxen raised by villagers. Actually, I feel like the wild boars did not only kill the oxen for food. They simply want them dead! The oxen were torn into pieces. It was a horrible sight!”

Officer Li ate a mouthful of porridge and continued, “We are on duty here every day. Sometimes, we can hear strange sounds coming from the forest at night. The sound is not produced by a tiger or bear. It’s probably the wild boars. Those sounds really make people’s hair stand!”

“It’s okay, Officer Li. Tell me the general direction. I can handle it.”

Officer Li saw the determination in Su Chen’s eyes, so he did not try to dissuade him any further.

After all, Su Chen was someone who could subdue a tiger instead of being eaten by it.

He took out a pen and a piece of paper. Then, he drew a map for Su Chen, marking the approximate range where the wild boars were active.

Officer Li pointed and said, “Mr. Su, look. The triangle that I’ve drawn shows the location of an abandoned gold mine. Go around this gold mine and over a small hill. Then, you should be able to find the wild boars.”

“Gold mine?”

“Yes, we don’t know when it was discovered, abandoned, what it looked like, or whether there’s still gold inside.”

“Nobody cared,” added Officer Li with a puzzled look on his face.

Su Chen asked, “Even the government ignored this gold mine?”

“Apparently, it doesn’t belong to the government. Many years ago, a foreigner spent more than a billion dollars on it. However, there was no sign of it being mined and was just left there to idle! The foreigner must be really rich and whimsical!”

Officer Li shook his head.

Then, he asked with his eyes widened, “Hey, Mr. Su, are you interested in the gold mine? I don’t encourage you to go there. That gold mine has been idle for decades. It’s in a state of disrepair. It could collapse at any time. Besides, there are rumors of supernatural incidents that happened near the mine. People have seen phantoms and ended up in a delirious state. It’s really dangerous. This is no joke!”

Su Chen smiled and did not utter a word.

After thanking the police officers, he followed the map drawn by Officer Li and set off to find the wild boars’ nest.

Shortly after, Su Chen arrived at the abandoned gold mine that was mentioned by Officer Li.

Only a tree branch was blocking the gate to the courtyard where the gold mine was located.

It seemed like the foreigner did not guard this place at all.

Upon entering the courtyard, Su Chen saw a row of bungalows.

The glass on the windows had been shattered.

Only the unstable window frames were left.

Su Chen looked through the window and could see a big pot on a stove.

The plates and bowls on the table were covered in a thick layer of dust.

However, they were arranged in a specific manner.

Obviously, this was the kitchen.

Since such a large pot was used, there were probably quite a number of miners during the golden age of the gold mine.

The other bungalows were similar to offices and warehouses.

There were beds in the offices and the beddings looked very worn out.

Despite that, they were stacked together neatly.

In fact, the place almost looked like an army’s quarters.

There were also tools for digging. Some of the tools were still new.

It felt like this place was not abandoned because the gold mine had been exhausted.

Rather, everyone had suddenly left for some reason.

Su Chen arrived in front of the gold mine. He pushed away some of the snow that was blocking it.

The foundation of the gold mine was made of materials similar to sand and stone.

As for the entrance of the gold mine, it was blocked by a stone slab. So, the opening was not too big.

Since Su Chen was of average height, it would be relatively easy for him to enter.

“To the bottom of the gold mine!”

These words suddenly popped into Su Chen’s mind.

This was the next place he wanted to sign in.

Regardless, it would not be easy to maneuver around this place.

One had to be fully prepared.

Furthermore, there were supernatural incidents as mentioned by Officer Li.

Considering this place had been abandoned for a long time, deadly and poisonous gas was probably formed.

In the end, Su Chen decided to sign in at the wild boars’ nest first. He would return to this mine when he was ready.

Su Chen got up and headed deeper into the woods.

Just as he turned around, he saw a white figure flash past.

It was similar to the one he saw the other day..
