At this time, Coco also raised her little head from his arms.
Seeing this scene, Coco let out a "嘤" and buried her head back in her room.
Then she started to moan in his arms.
… So, the danger that Coco sensed was right here!
Indeed...
This is too dangerous!
He couldn't even deal with one high-level mutant creature stone statue at the beginning, and there are dozens of them here in total!
There are also a lot of other levels of mutant stone statues. If these guys come back to life...
He really couldn't imagine it at all!
There is no chance of resistance at all!
Fortunately, these mutated stone statues did not act because of the appearance of Lou Feier and him.
They remained motionless, either lying on the ground or standing there.
All in all, it looks decent.
"Look at the group of advanced mutant stone statues in the middle." Lou Feier pointed to the middle. "Before you came, I took a general look around. It seems that only there is a strange device."
Xu Xin looked there with a focused gaze.
Keke also raised her little head slightly and peeked over there: "Hmm?"
Various creatures, which were already very large in themselves, were petrified and stood there motionless, giving people a very oppressive feeling.
However, they should be unconscious now.
Just like when we were on the top of the snowy mountain.
This group of stone statues were gray in color and did not show any colorful colors in his eyes.
Using the ability of identification, the entire space is gray.
Except the very middle.
In the very center, a hint of gold was quietly emanating, standing out in the entire space.
“That’s…” Xu Xin narrowed his eyes and looked over.
"It seems to be a... control console?" Lou Feier continued to look in that direction, "Like the kind of control console we saw in the prison?"
It’s true.
Surrounded by all the stone statues, Xu Xin could see the corner of a control console.
This is the kind of control console found in the prison control room, made of special metal!
However, there are many such consoles in the control room, but there is only one here.
and…
This console was not like the ones he had seen before.
At least from his angle, all he could see was a single button on the console.
A large, purple-black button.
"The purple-black button?" Xu Xin's brows relaxed slightly, and he said thoughtfully.
This color, in this world, generally represents...
Portal!
Yes, it’s the color of the portal!
No way…
Could it be that, that is the mechanism that opens the passage between the underground world and the above-ground world
"The purple-black button should be related to the portal, right?" Lou Feier also spoke at this time.
Xu Xin nodded: "It seems that our goal should be to press that button."
By pressing that purple-black button, perhaps you can activate the teleportation array that connects the ground and underground.
But…
“… Damn it.”
Xu Xin couldn't help but swear.
Doesn’t this activity want them to succeed?!
It has been very difficult for them to get to this point.
There were giant beasts, prisons, and riots.
If it were an ordinary survivor, they would have died in the process of the activity.
But unexpectedly, they got a big one in the end!
This is to let them enter this group of stone statues!
"How about... I go down and take a look?" Lou Feier suggested when she saw Xu Xin's complicated expression.
Xu Xin glanced at her and said, "If you go down, how are you going to get up?"
"Climb up." Lou Feier looked relaxed, pointing to the passage they came up from. "I can't jump as high as you can. I also climbed up. The vine wall is easy to climb."
Indeed. But…
"If these guys wake up, you won't have enough lives even if you have two." Xu Xin still shook his head, not allowing her to go down, and reminded her, "Also, replenish your mental state. You don't know when these guys down there will wake up, and I don't want you to be so scared that you can't move."
"Oh, okay." Lou Feier also thought of this and quickly took out an orange and started peeling it.
With her current mental strength, it might not be a problem if she only faced one or two pterosaur stone statues like before, but if she faced dozens of advanced mutant creatures...
She felt like she couldn't hold on.
Fortunately, these stone statues have not awakened yet.
Xu Xin stuffed an apple into Coco's mouth, who had been pushing him since he saw the orange, and looked at the statues again.
"Hmm... But these stone statues may not necessarily move, right? Think about it, when we activated the teleportation formation, the scene was very similar to what it is now, wasn't it? Nothing happened then?" Lou Feier put a slice of orange in her mouth and argued.
Xu Xin nodded, then shook his head.
No, now is not the time to activate the teleportation array, because...
"If there really is some teleportation formation here, it should have been activated by now." Xu Xin expressed his speculation.
"Already activated? What does that mean?" Lou Feier was a little surprised.
"Do you remember the introduction of the Vine Bundle Key?"
"Introduction to the key? Um...ah!" Lou Feier suddenly realized.
… There are six vine bundle keys, corresponding to the six vine bundle branch prisons. After all the prisons are opened, the main vine bundle mechanism will be activated, unlocking the passage to the underground world.
And now, they have opened all the prisons, so the mechanism of the main vine bundle has been activated.
Otherwise, there wouldn’t be such a big change inside.
As for what this agency is...
It is indeed very likely to be a teleportation formation.
If that was the case, then the function of the purple-black button on the console they were seeing now was very simple.
Connect this place with the teleportation array they activated above!
Unlock the passage to and from the underworld!
"So what we need now is not activation, but connectivity? Then..."
Lou Feier's throat moved.
Xu Xin also frowned tightly.
Both of them recalled the situation at that time.
At that time, after connecting them with Wen Guixin...
The surrounding stone statues all came to life!
At that time, even the two pterosaurs woke up.
If all the stone statues here wake up, then...
etc…
At that time, the two pterosaur stone statues did not attack them, but simply looked at them.
Xu Xin looked at the two pterosaur stone statues in the group of stone statues.
It should be these two.
Chang Yin also told them the reason why the two of them did not launch an attack at that time.
Because at night, the two stone statues were controlled by the long seal!
Although we cannot fully control them, we can influence their actions!
He also said at the time that he had done some tricks inside the bodies of these large stone statues.
!
"Let's go out and find Changyin!" Xu Xin turned around and was about to leave.
"嘤!" Coco had just finished eating an apple. When she heard Xu Xin was leaving, she immediately raised her little head and put up her two paws in agreement.
"Ah? What do you mean?" Lou Feier was considering whether to go down and give it a try. Seeing Xu Xin was about to leave, she could only follow him.
"The long seal should be able to control these advanced mutant creatures." After Xu Xin finished speaking, he jumped directly down from the straight up and down passage behind him that he had come up from.
Then land easily.
Coco was already used to Xu Xin jumping around, so she wasn't scared at all and even opened her little mouth and yawned.
"Ah, wait for me!"
Lou Feier didn't dare to jump down a distance of twenty or thirty meters like Xu Xin did, but she was also very flexible. She jumped several times on the wall of the passage made of vines and landed easily.
The two walked out together.
"Chang Yin said that he had tampered with many of the stone statues so that he could control them at night." Xu Xin raised his watch and took a look.
Now, it is already three o'clock in the morning of the next day.
There are only more than five hours left before the twenty-four-hour limit.
They have to solve this problem within more than five hours!
"... He can control so many at once?" Lou Feier pointed behind her and asked in disbelief.
"At least it will be of some use."
Soon, the two approached the exit of the passage.
At this point, Xu Xin frowned slightly and stopped.
"What's wrong?" Lou Feier also stopped behind him.
"Someone came in." Xu Xin explained, and at the same time asked directly, "Who is outside?"
"Xu Xin, you guys are in there, come out for a moment."
It is the sound of Chang Yin.
Xu Xin and the other person quickly walked out of the passage.
Changyin was waiting for them at the mouth of the gap.
"Where is she?" Xu Xin asked.
Chang Yin pointed to the ground, indicating that Xue Lan was still there.
He still didn't dare to bring Xue Lan out.
After all, the area around the main vine is really evil.
"What did you see in there just now?" Chang Yin asked solemnly, "I can feel that the giant beast underground is getting ready to move."
What?!
"That squishy giant?"
"That's right." Chang Yin nodded, "I don't know what that thing is, but... it's scary. Wait, come with me. It's not convenient to talk here."
Changyin once again led them away from the main vine bundle.
Coco fell into a deep sleep again, her little body curled up in Xu Xin's arms.
This little guy has suffered so much.
After all, it was already time to go to bed. Xu Xin and the others were completely dependent on blue-level fruits, but blue-level fruits had no effect on Coco, so its mental state was very bad.
When they reached the location, Chang Yin stomped his foot, and an entrance to an underground passage rose from the ground, and the three of them entered together.
Xue Lan was sitting inside.
"What happened outside?" She asked hurriedly when she saw Xu Xin and the other person who were about to leave come back.
Xu Xin told them what he saw inside.
"A group of stone statues? Have the stone statues been inside this bundle of vines all along?" Chang Yin was a little surprised.
"Those stone statues..."
"That's right." Before Xu Xin finished asking, Chang Yin nodded, "Those stone statues are indeed my test subjects."
Is it really like this
"Those stone statues don't have the blood of giant beasts, or their blood is very thin. They are the product of the first step of the petrification experiment that I told you about before. They have the strength of mutant creatures, as well as the regeneration ability of stone statues and super execution ability."
Changyin explained.
"Didn't you say that you can control those stone creatures at night? How come you don't know they are here?" Xu Xin asked with some confusion, then turned to Lou Fei'er and said, "Go out and fire a flare."
He had to let the others know that there were people near the main vine.
At present, it seems that Zhao Xiaochuan is the only one who can easily pass through this dangerous area.
After all, he could just walk in as long as he didn't get hurt by mistake.
If he could come in, things would be much easier.
"Flare? Oh, okay." Lou Feier nodded and walked out.
Chang Yin glanced at her and did not stop her. Instead, he answered Xu Xin's question: "I just did something to a few powerful stone creatures. They are very resistant to my control. To put it nicely, it's control, but in fact, I can only influence their actions. When they fall asleep, I can't affect them, nor can I use them to check the surrounding environment."
So that's how it is.
"Don't you control a few low-level stone statues?"
"Of course it is possible, but low-level stone statues are too easy to control. The stone statues controlled by me will not even listen to the Blood Mark Clan anymore. Wouldn't I be exposed then?" Chang Yin spread his hands.
That's right.
At this time, the sound of a flare explosion was heard outside, and then Lou Feier came back.
"The flare has been fired," she reported.
"Okay." Xu Xin nodded. "Next, it depends on their understanding."
His idea was that Zhao Xiaochuan would come in, take his bracelet out, and then bring the others in.
In this way, they can get through this difficult time easily and without any injuries.
"What are you going to do next?" Xue Lan looked at the others and then glanced at Chang Yin. "You don't have to persuade me anymore. If I can't find Xiao Hong, I won't leave."
"… It's really not safe here." Chang Yin said helplessly.
"My fighting ability is not weaker than yours." Xue Lan tapped the wall lightly, and the small underground space immediately vibrated.
"Wow." Lou Feier exclaimed in surprise, "Sister Xuelan, are you so strong?"
Xu Xin was also slightly stunned.
He seemed to have never seen Xue Lan take action before.
It turns out that this couple are so strong!
"… This is not a question of combat power," Chang Yin showed a bitter face, "No matter how strong you are, you were still captured and imprisoned by them? Xiao Hong is also in their hands. We can't do anything. At least I have technical support. They won't do anything to me. You…"
"I'm not going up." Xue Lan shook her head.
Chang Yin sat down on the stone bench with a click, and said in distress: "You are really..."
"We're still not sure we can't find Xiaohong, right? Didn't Wang Lei launch a flare?" Lou Feier said.
Chang Yin shook his head. "It's unlikely that Xiao Hong is there. Now think about it, if Xiao Hong and Xue Lan were in the same situation, he wouldn't have appeared in the belly of the treasure chest monster, and he wouldn't have been found by Xu Xin."
really.
When Xiaohong woke up, he shouted in panic, "Don't hit me."
He couldn't bear it and fell into a deep sleep.
Moreover, he was taken away by the pterosaur statue.
Now, the pterosaur statue is located inside the main vine and is sleeping.
Huh
hiss…
Could Xiaohong be in the main vine
"Let's go up first. Xuelan, you stay here and don't go out." At this time, Changyin stood up and said.
"Okay." Xue Lan nodded. She also knew that if she went out now and was discovered, it would be a big problem.
Several people walked out of the tunnel.
"I'll go in and take a look. Do you still want to go in?" Chang Yin was in a bad mood at the moment.
"I'll go in with you. You wait outside, maybe Zhao Xiaochuan will come in."
"Okay." Lou Feier nodded.
Xu Xin and Chang Yin entered and soon arrived at that space again.
"It's them indeed." Chang Yin rubbed his chin with his hand, making a sound of stones rubbing against each other.
"Well, if they wake up, you..."
"If I try my best, I can only keep them in place for about... five seconds?" Chang Yin thought for a moment.
Five seconds
"Is it safe down there now?" Xu Xin asked.
"No problem. As long as you don't move anything, these stone statues won't wake up for no reason." Chang Yin nodded.
"Okay, I'll go down and take a look."
Having said that, Xu Xin no longer hesitated, jumped down directly, and walked towards the control console in the center.
The density of the surrounding stone statues was so high that he inevitably bumped into the surrounding stone statues.
Mutated Wild Boar Statue (Gray): A mysterious stone statue that seems to contain a strange and powerful vitality.
…
Doesn’t this introduction have the word “powerful” added to it compared to the previous one
Shaking his head, he continued walking forward.
Soon, he arrived at the group of stone statues of advanced mutant creatures.
These large creatures look really oppressive.
Fortunately, because of their large size, the gaps between the stone statues are much larger, so if you are careful you won't touch them.
Taking a deep breath, Xu Xin walked into the group of stone statues and came to the control console.
The purple-black button was bigger than his head.
He reached out and gently touched the control panel.
Teleportation Array Activation Device (Gold): After pressing the button on the stage, the teleportation array will be activated, teleporting all individuals in the space to the ground.
…all individuals in the space
Xu Xin looked around slowly.
The dense stone statues all around made his scalp tingle.
… I… !
You don't want people to complete this activity, right
