Before, when he was ten kilometers away, he couldn't feel how thick the vine bundle was.
But now looking at it so closely, the vine is actually nearly a hundred meters thick!
Absolutely spectacular!
However, the vine bundle is not hundreds of meters thick from top to bottom.
He looked up toward the sky.
Directly above is the gap in the sky that emits bright light.
The part of the vine that came out of the gap was not as thick as the part in front of us.
The upper half of the entire vine bundle is relatively thin, with a diameter of only about ten meters.
But about two or three hundred meters above the ground, the vines began to grow thicker and thicker like branches and leaves, forming a half-open umbrella shape that penetrated into the ground directly below, covering a circular area with a diameter of about one hundred meters.
On the map, his current location is right under the snow mountain formation.
It has been confirmed that the bright gap above his head is actually below the Snow Mountain Array.
It seems that he made the right choice to travel a long distance to come here.
This thick bundle of vines must have something to do with getting back to the ground.
He came down from the position above his head. If he wants to go back, he naturally has to go back from there.
At this moment, he was still hundreds of meters away from the thick vines. Looking around, he could not see anything noteworthy on the vines.
He raised his foot and walked towards the vine bundle that was a hundred meters in diameter.
"Hmm!" Coco pushed his chest armor in his arms, stopping his actions.
"What's wrong, Coco?" Xu Xin asked with some confusion.
"Ying..." Keke looked at the vine bundle, kicked her legs and jumped out of Xu Xin's arms, stepped on the ground, then looked back at him, "Ying!"
Coco's meaning was obvious, she wanted him to follow it.
Could it be that there is still danger within the range of more than 100 meters ahead
However, it is indeed a bit weird.
On the road he had just walked, there were powerful beasts at intervals, and giant insects were everywhere. You could see many of them at a glance.
But here, in front of us, in this area close to the vines, there were no giant beasts or insects.
Not to mention the giant beasts and bugs, there aren't even any vines.
Empty!
A flat ground!
Perhaps, it is because of some danger that other creatures will not come here.
Or maybe, the creatures that have been here have disappeared.
"Coco, let's not go in yet, let's walk around and take a look." Xu Xin decided to walk around the relatively safe area on the periphery to see what's special about this vine bundle.
The bundle of vines is a hundred meters thick and only half the diameter of the giant peak, so you have to walk around it and observe it first.
"Hmm!" Coco nodded her little head and crawled back into his arms.
Walking around the vine bundle and observing, Xu Xin looked in the direction of the other five vine bundles.
The end points of the remaining five vine bundles slanting downward are the destinations for the others.
Will he be the first to arrive
Logically speaking, Zhao Xiaochuan and Wen Guixin should be better than him in this regard.
Zhao Xiaochuan could just put himself in a hidden state and walk over here. No monster would be able to find him anyway.
Wen Guixin has the ability to control a herd of beasts, and her physical abilities are very strong, so as long as she avoids the giant beasts that have little interest in them, she can even get a few bugs to help bring her here.
Ji Chaoyang and Wang Lei are not much different from him and have no ability in this area.
The one who is most miserable should be Lou Feier. Her situation should be similar to that of the Silver King. Once her aura is exposed, she will likely attract a large number of giant beasts to surround her.
Fortunately, although I can’t contact her, her name is still lit up on the watch.
It’s good that she’s still alive. Being alive means she still has a way.
"Huh?" Xu Xin stopped.
Because he saw a narrow gap in the vine bundle.
A narrow gap just wide enough for one person to pass through.
He had already turned most of the circle, and almost all the vines were entangled with each other. There was no gap for a person to pass through, let alone a gap that was not even possible to pass through.
Except for the gap in front of me.
Although people can only enter sideways, it is still an entrance!
He did not rush in, but walked around the vine bundle and made sure that there was only this one gap in the entire thick vine bundle before returning to the position where he saw the gap.
"Coco, lead the way, take me into that gap." Xu Xin rubbed Coco's ear and said.
"嘤!" Coco jumped out of his arms, stepped on the ground, looked back at Xu Xin, and then walked forward cautiously.
Are you so careful
What dangers are there in this area
Looking at Coco, it seems like she is detecting mines.
Are there really any landmines
Thinking of this, Xu Xin immediately followed Coco.
Wherever Coco stepped, he stepped too.
Coco walked forward about ten meters, stood up, and turned her little head.
"Bing!"
It barked, and stopped moving forward. Instead, it went around the area in front of it, took two steps to the right, and then looked back at Xu Xin, "Ying!"
Meaning let him go with it.
This really feels like minesweeping.
"Coco, is there something in front?" Xu Xin followed behind Coco and asked curiously.
“Hmm…?” Coco shook her head as she walked, indicating that she didn’t know.
Well, maybe it just sensed danger.
Xu Xin resisted the urge to take something out of his backpack and throw it in front to test it out, and continued walking behind Coco.
It’s better not to commit suicide.
Coco drew an arc on the ground, bypassing a large area of ten meters, and then continued to walk towards the vine bundle.
This time, it didn't go around in circles. It took Xu Xin and walked straight to the gap where a person could enter sideways.
"嘤!" Coco climbed down his legs and onto his shoulders again.
Xu Xin looked into the gap.
There are some narrow passages inside, but because the vines are very tangled, the passages become winding and you can only see the road about five or six meters long, and you can't see anything further ahead.
"Is there no danger in there?" Xu Xin asked Keke.
Keke also leaned over his shoulder and looked inside. When she heard his question, she immediately shook her head: "Hmm."
It means, not feeling.
Xu Xin nodded.
Even with his enhanced hearing, he couldn't hear any sound in the gap or in the vine bundle.
It was very quiet inside, as if nothing existed.
Looking up at the sky, the light here is a little dazzling.
He turned around and looked around again, making sure that there were no giant beasts approaching nearby, and he didn't see his companions either. He let out a breath and decided to go in.
Enter this extremely thick bundle of vines.
Without wasting any more time, he immediately moved sideways into the gap.
The gap was so narrow that Xu Xin could only walk along the vine wall.
Fortunately, the wall was made up of smooth, ordinary vines, not mutant vines, and without any barbs, which made things much easier.
"嘤!" Seeing that Xu Xin chose to enter, Ke immediately jumped off his shoulders and walked in front of him.
Just like before in the dungeon maze, its small body can move freely in this narrow gap.
"Coco, be careful."
"Bing!"
Coco responded, then rushed to the front and disappeared.
Xu Xin now has very good hearing and can hear its location, so he is not worried that there will be any problems with it.
Moreover, this little guy's sense of crisis is much stronger than his.
He groped his way forward.
The surrounding vines were ordinary vines, very smooth to the touch, and slightly warm, which surprised him a little.
This vine is still hot!
"Bing!"
At this time, Coco's voice came from the front, and Xu Xin quickened his pace.
"This is… "
What he saw was very different from what he had imagined.
Before coming in, he thought there would be a large space in the vine bundle, but now...
He seemed to have come to the center of the vine bundle, but here...
It's just a very small and narrow place.
Probably only, two square meters
That’s right, a space of only two square meters.
Looking up, it was quite high, I didn't know how many meters up.
Here, there seems to be a hollow center of this vine bundle.
He thought of the vine bundle being hollow, but this hollow...
It’s a bit too thin!
"Hmm!" Coco scratched the ground with her little paws and looked up at Xu Xin.
"... You want me to dig here?" Xu Xin raised his eyebrows.
"Hmm!" Coco nodded her little head.
Did they dig it up
He initially thought that he could explore the interior of the vine bundle and maybe even climb up, but he didn't expect that he would still have to dig downwards
We are already in the underground world, why do we need to continue
But he still believed in Coco, and besides, there were vine walls all around here, and there was nothing else he could do except digging down.
Xu Xin took out a steel shovel and started digging on the ground.
Then…
“clang!”
After digging a few times, he heard the sound of the steel shovel colliding with metal.
Another metal door
Without saying a word, Xu Xin cleared away the thin layer of light red contaminated soil.
A metal platform is buried under the soil.
That’s right, it’s not a door with a handle, but a smooth metal surface that is less than one square meter.
He dug around again, and there was only soil all around.
By the way, this smooth metal plane looks familiar...
He squatted down and reached out to touch the metal surface.
Survivor gravity mechanism: The survivor can trigger the mechanism by standing on it.
Wow, it really is a gravity mechanism!
However, the introduction did not explain what this mechanism would trigger.
Xu Xin picked up Coco, hesitated for a moment, and finally stepped on her.
"Card!"
There was a crisp sound under my feet, and then the mechanism under my feet began to sink slowly.
Then, the descent speed suddenly accelerated!
Xu Xin's face changed, and he was about to kick his feet to jump up, but with a "bang", the mechanism stopped.
And he has already fallen below the ground of the underground world!
He looked up and saw that the mechanism was not far away, only about five meters.
With this knowledge, he can jump on it at will.
Heaving a sigh of relief, Xu Xin began to look around.
In front of me is a passage.
A square metal passage that is about three meters high and wide.
On both sides of the passage, there are…
There are iron gates one by one!
That's right, this place looks like a prison corridor!
