With Andre fully healed and Ambrose sufficient for travel, they return with Lix and Conan to the caverns. Two half-skeletons are found in a puddle of ooze that surrounds an unlocked treasure chest, frightening Lix. Large stones are used to gain access over the ooze to the chest to find it is empty. The group proceeds on, successfully passing large pools of Leaping Leeches and coordinating their efforts to slip past Undead Slime. They encounter giant rats instead of foul bats, but their knives dispatch the ground rodents with ease. Andre uses powerful acid to dissolve the cement that binds some of the rocks hiding the treasure. Knight Conan wields the pickaxe to loosen stone. Lix finishes the job with a shovel. Then taking a breath and whispering a likely unheard prayer to Eremis, Lix climbs into the open chamber to examine the box. Surely a goo trap waits in the bottom to release dissolving alchemical compounds, so he dar not move the box yet. Lix finds a simple trap and disables it, but believes it to be a decoy. Another small gas trap is found in the lock of the box. Lifting the lid slowly, Lix discovers yet another trap - this one set to eject acid when the lid is opened. Alchemical treasures are found inside and carefully removed by Lix and handed to his brother, who notes the contents as he packs them carefully. Underneath a leather pack Lix finds another trap and a hidden compartment, underneath which are several small bars of gold. Packing their treasure, the friends make their way carefully back through the caves and return home. | |||
