SSS Awakening: Rebirth of the Strongest Vampire God novel Chapter 469

Chapter 469: Treasure Chest

Damon didn’t get a real look at the place while the six-headed snake was shredding the cliff. Now that the fight was over and the dust had settled, he could finally take it in.

They hadn’t been standing on a cliff at all. The ground under Damon’s boots was cracked. Rivers of orange lava flowed below, spitting steam and ash. Flame licked at the edges of the plateau.

Broken, charred bones and scorched rocks lay everywhere. The serpent’s beams had burned deep grooves into the stone.

And behind where the serpent had stood, there was now a glowing chest visible. A golden color treasure chest. Damon’s heart raced. Golden color treasure chests had a high chance of containing something precious.

He immediately tried to run towards it, only to realize he couldn’t move from the spot. "Motherfucker!" He cursed under his breath. The chest was right in front of him, and yet he couldn’t reach it.

But thankfully, he was not alone. "Green eyes, get up. I have a job for you. Go and open that treasure chest."

The elven girl flinched like he had slapped her. Her hands trembled, but she stood up slowly. She took a step, then another, and then another.

Damon sighed impatiently. Normally, he wouldn’t care, but given everything bizarre that was happening, he had a feeling that the next shuffling might come even sooner than expected. He did not want to lose a treasure chest just because this girl was too slow.

A few seconds later, she finally squatted in front of the treasure chest and gritted her teeth, trying very hard to open it. It looked like she was having some difficulties.

"Can you turn the treasure chest around? Let me take a look. Does it need a key?"

The elven girl nodded.

"Of course, it needs a key. Damn it. Where will I go now to find a key?" Damon once again used some wind energy to pull the treasure chest closer to himself, but it was of no use.

He then summoned his shadow clone and sent it on a search hunt. If there were a treasure chest here, then the snake should have dropped a key. It was only logical. Some tricky places were an exception, and the key could even be hidden in the surroundings, so it was worth looking around.

The clone vanished among the blackened ribs and lava-splashed boulders. The elven girl watched, pale and barely breathing.

While the clone was looking around, Damon also did not remain idle. He activated Blood Lens to see if he could spot some anomaly. At first, he couldn’t spot anything, but then, over a pocket of red-hot magma, where continuous bursts of hot gas erupted every now and then, there was something hidden. He could see a faint energy signature.

Damon immediately instructed the clone to go over there. The clone tried its best to touch the rock when the burst of gas was not there, but in the end, it did take a hit. 50% of its health was drained in a single hit. This was only thanks to the fire essence resistance the clone shared with Damon. Otherwise, it would have been obliterated in a single hit.

Luckily, there were no more tricks, and the key was simply under the rock. The clone grabbed it and dropped the key near the elf.
