The diameter of the giant stone pillar is as much as two hundred meters, making the top of the entire giant stone pillar look like a huge round table.
A circle with a diameter of 200 meters may not sound very big, but if you calculate the area, it is nearly 50 acres. With such an area, it is not a problem to grow crops and live on it.
The top of the giant peak is not completely flat, but slightly raised in the middle, like the spire of an ancient house.
Of course, the slope is very small, just a slight inclination, and the height of the middle part should be about one meter higher than the surrounding area.
There is no snow on the top of the mountain.
Perhaps, the avalanche he just caused caused the snow on the entire peak to slide down, or perhaps, the snow did not fall on the giant peak at all.
After all, this giant peak rises from the plains, and most of the clouds are located halfway up the mountain, so it is not certain that snow will fall on the top of the peak.
However, these are not the point.
While the mysterious voice was still announcing to him the end of the event, he saw something both familiar and strange.
He saw the stone statue of the beast.
A lot of stone statues.
Less than five meters in front of him, there was a stone statue of a black bear.
It stood up and faced Xu Xin and the outside of the giant peak, with its sharp paws raised high, as if it was about to swing its claws down and attack Xu Xin in front of it.
It's not just this stone statue.
In a circle about five or six meters from the edge of the cliff, there is a stone statue of such a beast every three or four meters.
They formed a circle at the edge of the giant peak, all facing the direction outside the peak, and all froze in a posture ready to attack, as if they were guarding something behind them.
Further back, about ten meters away, there is another circle of stone statues.
These stone statues also made attacking movements. They were obviously much larger than the outermost circle, and there were some lines on the stone statues, which were obviously blood lines.
This is a circle of stone statues of mutant creatures.
Going back ten meters, there is another circle of stone statues. These stone statues are very similar to the stone statues on the altar pillars.
Not only do they have patterns on their bodies, but they also have a part that is more exaggerated, such as wild boar's fangs, cat's front paws, rabbit's ears, bear's paws, etc.
The stone statues in the second circle are all low-level mutant creatures, while those in this circle are mid-level mutant creatures.
However, the most eye-catching thing is not these three circles of stone statues.
The first moment after Xu Xin climbed the mountain, he immediately noticed that near the center of the summit, there were two huge statues that were over five meters tall and looked particularly eye-catching!
"Is this... a pterosaur?" Xu Xin's eyes trembled wildly.
This... is too big
That’s right, the two huge stone statues standing in the innermost part are clearly creatures that existed in the ancient period of the Earth, between 210 million and 65 million years ago, and they now seem a bit surreal.
Pterosaur!
The movements of these two pterosaur stone statues are exaggerated. They spread their wings as if they could cover the sky, raise their heads, open their huge pointed mouths, and bare their huge and sharp teeth. They both look ferocious and ready to launch an attack!
Their appearance is much more intimidating than the three circles of "little guys" before!
Pterosaurs, many people mistakenly believe that this creature is a dinosaur, but in fact, they are not. They are giant flying reptiles that lived in the same era as dinosaurs.
The Greek word pterosaur, if literally translated, should mean "winged lizard".
If this ancient creature appeared in front of modern humans, even if it was a stone statue, it would be shocking enough!
Especially since Xu Xin had just experienced an attack by a flock of vultures, the largest flying species on Earth, he thought that he was basically immune to the huge flying creatures by now and would not be surprised by this anymore.
but…
The vulture's wingspan of less than five meters makes it look much cuter and smaller than the two pterosaur stone statues, which have a wingspan of more than ten meters.
This pterosaur is so huge! It seems unreal!
After all, people living in modern times can only see such huge, long-extinct flying creatures in movies!
Of course, this size is not the largest in the long history of the Earth.
The largest flying creatures that have ever appeared on Earth, Quetzalcoatlus and Hatzegopteryx, both had a wingspan of over 12 meters, teeth 10 centimeters long, and huge pointed beaks. These large creatures flying in the air were completely equivalent to a glider!
The two statues in front of us should not have reached this size yet.
Fortunately, after seeing the giant anaconda in the center of the lake with a body as long as a hundred meters, Xu Xin's ability to withstand stress has increased a lot. He took a deep breath and calmed down.
Looking behind the two pterosaurs, at the highest point of the stone pillar, there was a miniature purple-black vortex slowly rotating.
Of course, this pocket-sized one is compared with the two huge pterosaur statues next to it. It is not a problem for Xu Xin to get in this size.
This vortex should be the portal that the mysterious voice just mentioned, connecting to the foot of the snow-capped mountain, right
Xu Xin took a deep breath and slowly walked towards the center of the giant peak.
He didn't dare touch the statue.
In this world, stone statues are not just stone statues, they may actually move!
Either it is like the stone statue in the altar, which cracks, shines brightly, and then a real creature jumps out, or it is like Chang Yin Xuelan's family, who can move easily even as stone statues!
Therefore, he did not dare to act rashly when moving among the stone statues.
Just as he was carefully observing the stone statues around him, his watch suddenly vibrated.
Xu Xin was slightly stunned, then overjoyed.
Is it possible to communicate with the outside world here
He raised his hand and saw that it was a voice call from Li Wenxi.
"Hey, are you staying in the tree house obediently to look after the house?" Xu Xin was in a good mood. He answered the phone and teased directly.
"Xu Xin, you are so amazing!" Li Wenxi's voice was full of excitement. "You actually climbed up so quickly! The voice just now announced to the whole world that you completed the snow mountain rock climbing activity, and even opened a leaderboard just for you. Now the world channel has exploded!"
Notify the whole world
"'Congratulations to survivor Xu Xin for completing the Snow Mountain Rock Climbing event and becoming the first person to complete the event. The Snow Mountain Rock Climbing ranking list is now open, and the top 100 will receive special rewards. Other survivors please keep working hard!'," Li Wenxi imitated the tone of the mysterious voice to Xu Xin, and then excitedly said, "Notify the whole world directly! I knew you would be fine!"
Wow, he mentioned his name directly
Xu Xin opened the world channel, and sure enough, the entire screen was full of people discussing him, Area 188, and this snow mountain rock climbing activity that had popped up out of nowhere.
He took another look at the ranking list, and sure enough, his name was the only one hanging on the list, with very large font in gold.
"It's okay, it's okay." Xu Xin couldn't help but smile.
It is a very enjoyable thing to be praised and admired by the person you like.
He turned to avoid a stone statue of a mutant creature, and walked towards the center of the giant peak, laughing: "Who said, 'If you don't come back in twelve hours, I will go climb that snowy mountain'?" Xu Xin also imitated Li Wenxi's tone and said in a mixed voice.
"Why are you imitating me?" Although Li Wenxi said this, his tone was still full of excitement. "Hehe, I'm just worried, but I still believe in your ability! How about it, did you find anything? By the way, you are still on the top of the mountain, how are you going to get down?"
Xu Xin looked at the purple-black vortex that was getting closer and closer, and said, "The transmission channel has been established. Now, I can travel back and forth between the peak and the foot of the mountain at any time. However, I am the only one who can do this."
"Transmission channel? That's great!" As someone who had used the transmission portal many times, Li Wenxi was not surprised by the transmission channel. "Then... do you want to come down first, or..."
"I'll take a look upstairs first." Xu Xin didn't tell Li Wenxi about the situation upstairs, otherwise she would definitely be worried. "I'll be back soon."
"Okay!" Li Wenxi didn't ask any more questions. "Then be careful. Even if the activity is completed, there may still be danger!"
"Got it. Don't worry. I'm very cautious."
"Right, so far, Fei'er has brought back three people and four tree houses! Come back soon after you're done, and we'll discuss how to accommodate these people!"
Have you brought back three people
If there are three people but there are four tree houses, does that mean one is killed
Lou Feier is quite capable.
"Okay, I'll explore a little and then go back."
After hanging up the call, Xu Xin looked up at the pterosaur statue that was already close at hand.
You can't see any details from a distance, but when you get closer, all the details on the pterosaur statue become clear.
Apart from the single color, the entire pterosaur stone statue is extremely lifelike. Even the texture and wrinkles of the skin and the stretching feeling of the wings are as real as ever.
This made Xu Xin wonder whether this huge statue was originally alive like Chang Yin and the others, but was just petrified!
If that’s the case…
Xu Xin took a step back and moved a little further away.
If this is true, the possibility of this big guy surviving is really great!
However, if he could contract a pterosaur...
No no no…
There is basically no possibility.
Looking at the overall arrangement of the stone statues, the outermost ones are ordinary creatures, followed inwards by low-level mutant creatures, intermediate-level mutant creatures, and these two pterosaurs.
In other words, these two pterosaur stone statues most likely represent advanced mutated creatures!
He should not even think about encountering advanced mutant creatures. This thing is almost the same as riding him.
Xu Xin wanted to reach out and touch the pterosaur statue. After all, by touching it, he could get an introduction and know what it was.
It shouldn't be a problem if I touch it, right
… Forget it, let’s not try to touch it. If it really moves, we’ll be finished.
At least, after Ji Chaoyang comes up, the two of them can discuss it first. More people means more protection.
Walking around the pterosaur statue, Xu Xin continued walking forward.
About ten meters behind the pterosaur statue is the slowly rotating purple-black vortex.
"Hey, what is that?" Xu Xin's eyebrows jumped and he walked forward quickly.
There are some strange patterns on the ground near the vortex.
Directly below this rotating purple-black vortex is a triangular pattern with patterns, and the entire pattern is glowing with a purple-black light.
About five meters around the vortex, there are three circular patterns, each of which is aimed at a corner of the triangular pattern below the vortex. They are very neatly arranged around the triangular pattern and the purple-black vortex.
What is the meaning of this pattern? Is this purple-black vortex activated by this triangle pattern
So what is this circular pattern
This circular pattern looks familiar, a bit like... the circular pattern at the exit of the tree house.
Every time you go out of the tree house, you must touch the circular pattern.
Does this circular pattern also require survivors to touch it to trigger it
Xu Xin walked to the edge of the pattern, squatted down, and reached out to touch it.
The moment he touched it, the entire pattern suddenly lit up with a purple-black light from the place where he touched it, and then the light spread, and after a few seconds, the pattern was completely lit up.
