Post-apocalyptic game: I survive at sea by scavenging for trash.

The sand snake's droppings included venomous fangs and snake meat. Lin Zhaoyin intuitively felt that the venomous fangs must be materials for making some kind of weapon.

"Xiao Shi, we're not in a hurry. There might not be anything in that pyramid. Let's kill a few more snakes first."

A sand snake can drop 2 fangs, so you'd need to kill at least 25 snakes. 50 fangs should be enough materials to make a weapon.

So the two started fighting monsters and searching for snakes along the way.

The two were initially a little afraid of snakes, but they became more and more excited as they fought them. They completely forgot their original purpose and got carried away with killing monsters.

Normally, Zhou Shiyun gets less experience points because Lin Zhaoyin is the main damage dealer, but now she leveled up on the spot by killing snakes.

They had killed seven or eight snakes in less than a hundred meters.

The journey of killing snakes was a bit boring, so Lin Zhaoyin and Zhou Shiyun started discussing various ways to cook snake meat.

The snake meat the system provided was skinned and cut into sections, so what's the difference between it and eel? Even if she hadn't made any mistakes before, Zhou Shiyun felt she was good enough now.

But the pyramids were like a maze; we had walked a long way, but we still couldn't see them.

"Could this pyramid be a mirage?"

Lin Zhaoyin suddenly realized that they were in the desert, and perhaps the pyramid was not in that direction at all.

Lin Zhaoyin had thought that "You Are My Eyes" was useless, so she hadn't used it. Now it's time to put it to use.

When Lin Zhaoyin put on her glasses and looked in the direction of the pyramid, she saw that it was indeed empty and there was nothing there.

Lin Zhaoyin looked around and finally saw the real pyramids from another direction.

"Over there!"

The pyramids are still several hundred meters away, and it's not a long walk from there.

The two continued killing snakes as they went, and finally reached the pyramid an hour later.

From a distance, it's hard to see clearly, and you might mistake it for a knock-off version of the pyramids in the real world. But once you get closer, you'll discover that these pyramids are actually inlaid with gold.

Lin Zhaoyin rummaged through the weapons and tools she had brought, finding two that were handy, and attempted to chisel off the gold. However, after struggling for a long time, the walls of the pyramid remained completely unmoved.

She thought the gold could be mined and converted into gold coins, but it seems she was overthinking it.

The entrance to the pyramid is very narrow, with only a small door that is half a meter wide and 1.5 meters high. You have to squat down to get in.

Looking from the outside towards the entrance, it was pitch black inside, and you couldn't see anything at all.

"Are you scared?" Lin Zhaoyin hesitated. The situation inside was unclear, and she didn't know if there was any danger. Was it the right choice to rush in?

There's nothing on this island except those snakes; it might be the only chance.

This is a level 3 island, how could you leave without gaining anything?

"To be honest, I'm a little scared, but we're already here, we'll definitely regret it if we don't go in. Sister Yinyin, if you're going in, I'll go in with you! Besides, we have Mimi with us!"

"Meow~" the white tiger beast also cried out. It had been useless in fighting snakes all the way and was now very bored.

Lin Zhaoyin still decided to go in. Just as Zhou Shiyun said, she would definitely regret it if she didn't go in!

Lin Zhaoyin has you as her eyes, so logically she shouldn't be unable to see anything inside. There's only one possibility: this entrance is like a barrier, obscuring what's inside.

Not knowing whether there was any light inside, Lin Zhaoyin still asked Zhou Shiyun to bring a flashlight, ready to provide illumination at any time.

"I'll walk in front, you stay close to me."

Zhou Shiyun nodded, feeling a little nervous.

The moment Lin Zhaoyin stepped into the pyramid entrance, her vision changed from darkness to a blinding white. After Zhou Shiyun and the white tiger beast also entered, a system notification sounded.

Welcome to the island's secret realm—the pyramid. If you're brave enough, climb the tower! How many levels can you reach?

[Pyramid Secret Realm Game Rules: The Pyramid Secret Realm has 99 levels. Each level has 20 monsters corresponding to the level's level. Defeating all monsters on a level will grant you rewards and allow you to advance to the next level. The higher the level, the richer the rewards. Players can choose to end the challenge at any time and take away the rewards they have obtained. If the challenge fails, the player will lose everything, including their life.]

[Player, please confirm whether you wish to start the challenge?]

This is a typical tower climbing game. The monster level on each floor corresponds to the floor number, so no matter what, you can always pass a few floors. Lin Zhaoyin had no reason not to take on the challenge.

Moreover, this is a great place to farm experience points. I already got over 1000 experience points from killing snakes earlier, so killing monsters here will give me even more.

"Little Poem, I'm about to start the challenge. Are you ready?"

"Sister Yinyin, I'm ready, you can begin!"

After Lin Zhaoyin clicked the button to start the challenge on the light screen, the environment inside changed instantly.

The white expanse turned back into the same desert as outside, and the monster on the first level... was actually a pile of gold coins with long arms and legs!

The gold coin's attack was also hilarious; it rushed over and swung its little fists at Lin Zhaoyin and Zhou Shiyun, but because the attack power was so low, the two were shocked and beaten up, but remained unharmed.

The two still used melee weapons and began smashing gold coins, one in each hand. With Lin Zhaoyin's current attack attributes, she could basically kill them in one hit.

Zhou Shiyun needs to be slower; it will take two attacks to kill her.

Mimi didn't make a move; she just watched curiously from the sidelines.

Within minutes, all the level 1 gold coin monsters were defeated.

[Congratulations to the player team for clearing the first level! Each player receives the following rewards: 100 experience points and 1000 gold coins]

[Please select whether to proceed to the next level?]

The experience points for defeating 20 level 1 monsters are 200 points, so it seems that the experience points and rewards for this Pyramid Secret Realm challenge are directly split equally.

Lin Zhaoyin chose to enter the second level. The monsters on the second level were still species she had never seen before, but were very familiar with.

When Lin Zhaoyin saw the level 2 wooden monster, she had a guess: could the monsters on each level be the same kind of resource?

The wooden monster was easily defeated, and the reward was indeed wood—100 pieces of wood per person.

The monster on the third floor is a stone monster, and Lin Zhaoyin felt that her guess was correct.

Although the stone monster has strong defense, it can be defeated with a few more hits. Moreover, given Lin Zhaoyin's attack stats, no matter how hard the stone is, it's not as hard as her fists and weapons.

Although Lin Zhaoyin used a sword to cut them, it's entirely possible that she could also shatter these stones with her fists.

Each person received 300 experience points and 100 stones.

"Little Poem, guess what the monster on the fourth floor is?"

"Shouldn't we give him the iron now, following the order?"

If we're talking about the island's usual supplies, iron blocks are definitely one of them.

Unfortunately, games are not so easy to predict.

After Lin Zhaoyin chose to continue the challenge, the scene in the space suddenly changed.
