“WenChang, have you ever participated in the Brave Cup Mist Adventure Race before?”

Having completed the registration, Qin Lang looked at a huge cave shrouded in green mist and black inside, not far away, and asked Zhao Wenchang who was beside him.

“I’ve always wanted to participate, but I only recently became a Spirit Chef,” Zhao Wenchang shrugged his shoulders, “So, 1 haven’t participated in this fun competition.”

“Well, we can give it a try now.” Seeing the other thirty-two contestants preparing to enter the cave, Qin Lang and the two little ones showed an eager expression.

“Even though my ability isn’t strong, what exploration requires is a brave heart,” Zhao Wenchang laughed, summoning his Food Spirit, his eyes filled with fighting spirit.

“Will the thirty-four contestants please get ready!” A deeply masculine voice came from the broadcast, “The Brave Cup Mist Adventure Race is about to begin!”

“The organizer has equipped every contestant with the same adventure gear as the ‘Brave One’, we hope you all can venture into the cave as courageously as Chou Chen did in his time and explore the unknown world!”

Several staff members immediately stepped forward to distribute the equipment bags to the contestants.

Every bag had a flashlight, a compass, a bandage, a marker pen and a bottle of water.

Did the brave Chou Chen really explore with these things back then?

Qin Lang was skeptical of this.

However, these things were indeed useful in a dark cave.

“Being brave explorers, in addition to safely coming out from the other side of the cave, you have another important task to complete!”

“That is– ”

“To find the treasure that the Bravery left behind!”

Surrounding spectators suddenly burst into laughter, making the atmosphere quite cheerful.

Everyone knew that this “treasure” was a prop placed inside the cave by the organizers.

“We’ll split up later,” Zhao Wenchang nudged Qin Lang with his shoulder. “This way we can find more of the brave treasure.”

“No problem,” Qin Lang agreed readily, “Just right, we can see who finds more of the brave treasure.”

“Deal!” Zhao Wenchang was eager to try.

The broadcast continued.

“The look of the brave treasures is easy to recognize, they are marked with our

Brave Cup Mist Adventure Race logo!”

“These treasures are hidden in various places within the cave, we hope that the thirty-four contestants can find them all, the more treasures you find, the higher your final score will be!”

“And now—- ”

“The Misty Adventure Race, formally begins!”

“Good luck to you all, brave adventurers!”

As the broadcast ended, the railings blocking the cave entrance were lifted by the staff members, and the thirty-four contestants, including Qin Lang and Zhao Wenchang, rushed in.

“Click!”

As they entered the real darkness, the sound of flashlights being switched on echoed in the silent cave.

Thirty-four beams of flashlight, momentarily illuminating the surroundings.

However, as the beams scattered and the thirty-four contestants began to check different directions within the cave, the cave quickly returned to its dim state.

Even though the time taken to get out of the cave was part of the final score, the contestants did not immediately start running.

On one hand, this part of the score was much less than the score for finding the treasures.

On the other hand, the cave floor was not as smooth as a track and running could easily lead to tripping and falling.

While illuminating the ground to prevent tripping and carefully avoiding other competitors, Qin Lang quickly reached a turning point inside the cave.

Unexpectedly, there were forks within the cave.

But a naturally formed cave having forks was quite reasonable.

Taking advantage of the fact that the other contestants hadn’t noticed this area, Qin Lang didn’t hesitate and directly chose one of the forked entrances to go in.

“Gulu…”

So quiet…so dark…

Dan Bao looked around somewhat fearfully, it began to feel scared as they really entered the cave.

“Chaka!”

You’re so timid!

Spicy, while shivering, tried to act nonchalant and mumbled, the light on his head flashing between red and green.

“Don’t be scared, you two follow me.”

Though Qin Lang felt a bit spooked, he did not display his fear in front of the two Food Spirits. About ten meters in, he took out a marker and carefully drew a unique mark on the cliff.

He made plenty of marks so he could retrace his steps even if he ended up in a dead-end…

“Ah!!!”

A shadow suddenly lunged at him from a hidden corner in the cliff, causing Qin Lang to shiver and nearly drop his marker.

“Crack!!!”

Spicy also jumped in fright, flashing in an instant to hide behind Qin Lang, with its completely red light bubble trailing leisurely behind from its previous location.

“Glorp!!!”

Startled as well, Dan Bao reflexively spat out a pillar of fire that engulfed the shadow that was lunging toward it.

Looking at the shadow being devoured by the flame, Qin Lang, fresh off a scare, took deep breaths and cautiously approached with his flashlight.

Seeing the scorched dummy lying on the ground, Qin Lang couldn’t help but roll his eyes.

It nearly frightened him to death just now.

What happened to the Misty Adventure Race? Why does it feel like an escape room?

From the entrance where they came from, Qin Lang faintly heard the screams and shouts of other people.

Clearly, quite a few contestants experienced similar scares.

“Don’t be afraid, these are just dummies prepared by the organizers.”

Noticing that the two young ones hadn’t recovered from the scare, Qin Lang laughed, directly lifted the dummy, shook it in the air, and then threw it on the ground.

“Let’s go, we continue onwards.”

Thanks to Qin Lang’s demonstration, the two Food Spirits quickly calmed down from their fright.

“Click clack!”

If there are any more dummies, I will bite them hard with my Lucky Bite Mark!

Dissatisfied with her performance just now, Spicy followed Qin Lang, speaking resentfully.

Dan Bao vigilantly watched its surroundings, guarding against similar dummies appearing again.

“Huh?” After a short walk ahead, Qin Lang paused.

The flashlight just swept over something shiny.

He aimed the flashlight at the direction from his memory, indeed seeing a metal gleam in the cracks of the cliff.

“Glorp!”

Leave it to me!

Dan Bao used its Thought Waves to control the shiny object and flew it into Qin Lang’s hand.

It was a gold coin, both sides of the coin were stamped with a hexagon and a fist symbol, which is the Brave Cup’s symbol.

“The Brave Treasure is gold coins?” Qin Lang chuckled, “It really has the feel of a treasure.”

He pocketed the gold coin and continued deeper with the two young spirits.

Shortly afterward, another metallic gleam appeared under his flashlight.

“Click clack!”

This time it’s my turn!

Spicy volunteered, appearing instantly before the shiny metal.

“Roar!”

It joyfully bit the gold coin. Discover 𝒏ew chapters at novelbi𝒏(.)co𝒎

“Crack!!!”

“Glurg!!!”

“Holy crap!!!”
