Hvisland: A VR Colony Sim Game

Chapter 26 - 26 – A Crack On The Cliff



I chose to ask Kat to come to that place. If it's restricted, it means something is up, and maybe it's dangerous. It was better to use two people to inspect the area than Leva to enter it alone.

"Usually, what is behind a place like this?" Kat asked as per my instructions.

Leva swallowed. "Could be anything."

The two girls walked into the crack with careful steps. I didn't have time to pay attention to their sexy movements because I was too focused on what would happen. It's been a few days in the game world, and nothing excites me yet. Everything is running perfectly normal. And finally, now there's something I'm curious about.

After passing through the winding crack for a while, they came to a large field surrounded by cliffs. I immediately shook my head at the beauty in my eyes. Many colorful flowers were very pleasing to my eye, all of them very similar to tulips but a little bigger. And in that place, there are also lots of colorful butterflies.

Even the expressionless Kat opened her mouth slightly, a sign that she was amazed by sight before her.

However, Leva's gaze was fixed on the other side of the place, which was to a cave about twice as high and wide as an adult human.

"That…" Kat approached Leva.

"It's a salt cave." Leva gulped. "Just as Manu told you."

Wow! We hit the jackpot! This means my colony will…. Why is your body starting to shake, Leva?

"Should we still go to that place?" Leva sighed.

Ugh. You still have to enter it because it can make you rich. If there really is something dangerous in there, then you better not go too deep. Just check the front.

What's more, I'm already very curious about what's in there.

As soon as they received my instructions, the two of them began to step forward with their respective weapons on alert. Kat with her bow and arrow, while Leva uses her pickaxe.

They walked very slowly, with Leva leading the way. As much as I wanted to see what happened, I couldn't force them to go any faster. The fast forward button also doesn't work, a sign that something big is about to happen.

Once we finally entered the cave, we found many stalactites (a mineral formation that hangs from the ceiling of the cave) and stalagmites (a formation that rises from the cave floor due to the accumulation of material deposited on the floor from ceiling drippings). Everything is white, the same as the cave walls.

I poked at one of the stalagmites, then stuck my finger to my tongue. Salty. It's all really salt!

"Ugh, I really don't feel comfortable being here." Leva said with trembling lips and a pale face. "Coming to this place alone is a bad idea."

You're really terrified to be here, Leva?

"Alright, take as much as you two can, then get out of here." I was forced to give orders like that, although I was still curious about what was in there.

Sighing, Leva used her ax to mine one of the stalagmites. It only took a few seconds for her to produce a lump as big as twice a human palm. Kat took the lump and put it in her bag.

For the second time, Leva sighed, this time closing her eyes. She raised her ax, preparing to mine again, but suddenly the sound of something crawling echoed in the place.

Leva immediately retreated and prepared to attack. Meanwhile, Kat took an arrow from the quiver.

A creature with a dull brown color and the size of an adult human head emerged from the darkness. It looks like a scorpion, but without a stinging tail and only six legs.

None of Kat's arrows hit the target because the beast was crawling very fast. In just an instant, it had gotten so close to my two female colonists.

Leva hit the beast in the head with her pickaxe, sending white liquid splattering instead of blood. The beast twitched for a moment before finally stopping altogether. Leva wasted no time. She stepped on the beast so she could pull her pickaxe more easily. After that, she pulled Kat to run away from the place.

"That is the Stump Scorpion. They usually do live in salt caves." Leva hissed as she ran. "We were lucky to only meet one. There must be lots of them in there and some bigger ones. They are all very aggressive."

Damn. Turns out I was too reckless this time. I almost lost my two most beautiful colonists.

***

Leva placed the lump of salt in front of the three men in my colony.

"What is this?" Seb crouched down and studied the object.

"It's salt." Manu wipes his face.

Seb immediately tasted a little of it. "Right, it's salt! We can make even better food with this!"

"Are you two okay?" Pif asked worriedly.

"We're fine, really." Leva let out a long sigh. "We were lucky to only meet one of them and were able to kill it."

Manu approached Leva with tense facial veins. "Are you crazy!? You should already know that entering that salt cave is something very dangerous!? What if you both die!? What if you accidentally lure those Stump Scorpions out to chase you!? We will all be in danger!"

"I know …." Leva gritted her teeth and clenched her fists. She was clearly holding back her anger. "But I don't know why I did that myself."

I asked Seb's help to resolve this before the conflict escalated.

"Come on, the important thing is that they are safe." Smiling, Seb intervened between the two.

Manu snorted. "But, her reckless actions are already threatening us! And we don't know whether she will do it again or not!"

"You go away, Leva. But apologize and say you won't do it again first." I gave the red-haired girl a suggestion.

It's my fault. I got too excited and made my colonists do dangerous things.

"I'm sorry, okay. I won't do that stupid thing again." Leva said in a firm tone, then just left the place.

"Where are you going, hey!?" Manu was about to approach Leva again, but Seb quickly restrained the bearded man's body.
