"We discovered a secret dungeon in the northern Scorching Wind Desert. Legend has it that countless riches are buried there," Gin said with a dreamy grin.

"Rumors say you must find the red box that contains the key to the treasure chest."

"No one's ever brought back any treasure, even though everyone knows where it is. Maybe Bonaparte, the monster that guards it, killed them."

"You could take a look if you like. The entrance to the dungeon is in the northeast of the Scorching Wind Desert."

Was this the treasure Gin told you about? You stared at it, confused.

On the chest was an inconspicuous apparatus and a keyhole. They were hidden within the wood grain of the box, and if you hadn't looked closely, you would certainly have missed them.

You looked around for the ancient monster that supposedly guarded the treasure before proceeding. The coast was clear.

You rotated the chest slightly, and the ground began to shake. From beneath the earth, you heard a metallic clanking noise and the sound of gears gnashing against one another.

Suddenly, the shaking stopped, and an entrance appeared. You tried it, but it was firmly locked.

You needed a key to open the entrance. Maybe the key was in the dungeon? You remembered that Gin mentioned a red box containing a key.
