Chapter 87 Humanoid Stone Statue
Observe the stone statue in front of you carefully. His clothes are gorgeous and neat, like an elite of upper class society. His body maintained the writing posture, as if he had written the contract just now.
Xu Xin looked around the room. Apart from the stone statues, wooden tables, and wooden chairs, there was nothing else in the whole room. It was just a closed stone room with only one door and no windows.
Except for the green light emitting from the stone statue in front of me, there is no other hierarchical thing.
After hesitating for a moment, he reached out and touched the lifelike stone statue.
[Human-shaped stone statue (green): A mysterious stone statue that seems to contain strange vitality. 】
Upon hearing this introduction, Xu Xin suddenly took her hand back.
Contains vitality!
Does that mean that this humanoid stone statue will come to life!
"Huh?" Coco was startled by Xu Xin's sudden move. It turned its head and looked at the stone statue, then looked at Xu Xin. Suddenly it jumped on the head of the stone statue, scratched it with its paws, and then tilted its head to look at Xu Xin. , as if to say, look, there is no danger.
Xu Xin directly picked it up: "Don't move! This thing might come back to life!"
"Huh?" Ke Ke was puzzled. This big stone can also come to life?
Xu Xin thought of the broken door bolt.
The door bolt was inserted from inside the door, but there was only this stone statue inside the door, so who inserted the door bolt?
Thinking deeply and fearfully, he pursed his lips and slowly exited the room.
He had broken the door bolt, so Xu Xin had to leave the door ajar.
He just thought that this stone statue was the same kind of prop as the statue in his tree house and could be taken away, but he remembered clearly that the statue in the tree house was called [Human Statue], and this one was called [Human Stone Statue].
He just tried to put this thing into his backpack, but it didn't work.
Why not? Because it has vitality? Isn't it because a backpack can't hold living things? But, is this thing really alive?
Xu Xin got goosebumps all over her body.
After taking a deep look at the door he closed, Xu Xin continued to walk to the next door.
Xu Xin walked a few meters along the passage and came to the second door.
This time he didn't kick directly, but put his foot on the door and kicked hard. The sound will be smaller this way.
Sure enough, the rotten door bolt inside the door was broken directly, and the door opened.
Seeing the situation inside the door, Xu Xin frowned.
"Another stone statue?"
There is only one bed in this room, and on the bed, there is a stone statue with closed eyes lying on its side. The seemingly sleeping face is facing the doorway where Xu Xin entered.
This is a woman with an oriental face. Even though she is a stone statue, Xu Xin can still feel the beauty of her appearance.
The female stone statue lying on the bed is wearing gorgeous pajamas. Although she is sleeping on a simple and even somewhat decayed wooden bed, it still gives people a noble and elegant feeling, and her temperament is not affected by the dark and dilapidated environment around her.
At this time, there was a bright ring emitting blue light placed on the pillow of the female stone statue.
Xu Xin walked gently to the bed and carefully picked up the ring.
[Mutated Beast Ring (Blue): It can store five tamed low-level mutated beasts. Remember, it can only store mutated beasts! Don't forget to feed, otherwise the mutated beasts will starve to death inside. 】
A ring that can store mutant beasts like a Poke Ball!
Before Xu Xin came in, he was still thinking that if there were tools that could hold living animals, he could bring the Silver King in. Unexpectedly, he saw this type of tool.
However, it can only contain mutated beasts and has no effect on the Silver King.
Xu Xin reached out and touched the stone statue in front of her.
[Human-shaped stone statue (green): A mysterious stone statue that seems to contain strange vitality. 】
The introduction is the same as the previous male statue.
Two weird stone statues, two props related to mutated creatures.
Where was this underground city?
Why are there some mutant beasts here that are not completely contaminated? Why are mutant beast contracts found here and rings that can contain mutant beasts?
Who is that person who carved words on the stone table at the entrance of the corridor and is worse than dead?
Could it be that this was once a testing ground for taming mutant beasts?
Xu Xin did not put the ring into her backpack to occupy its place, but directly put it on her hand.
"If you encounter a mutated beast again later, you can try to tame it."
There was nothing else in this room. Xu Xin retreated and closed the door.
The moment he closed the door, he saw something, his hair suddenly stood up, and he gasped.
"Keke, when we entered just now, the eyes of the stone statue were closed, right?" Xu Xin stood at the door and asked Keke on his shoulder.
"Hey." Coco nodded her head clearly.
It was true that her eyes were closed, but just now, why did he see the eyes of the female stone statue open? !
Could it be an illusion?
Gritting his teeth, Xu Xin took out the iron sword from his waist.
All fear stemmed from the unknown, and all fear stemmed from insufficient firepower. He didn't want to be so worried, so he suddenly pushed open the wooden door that had just been closed.
The stone woman was still lying on her side on the bed, her eyes closed, looking lazy yet elegant.
"Did I really see it wrong just now?" Xu Xin stared at the stone statue with some suspicion.
The posture and facial expression of the stone statue were the same as when he first entered.
Staring at the stone statue's expression, Xu Xin closed the door again. This time, he did not see the stone statue's eyes open.
"Maybe I was under too much pressure and had hallucinations." Xu Xin comforted herself.
He didn't want the stone statue to really come to life.
However, he still kept an eye on the two ajar doors behind him.
Arriving at the third door, Xu Xin continued to kick in.
"...Another stone statue."
This time, it was a stone statue of a boy who looked to be seven or eight years old.
The room was empty, without any furniture. The stone statue of a little boy was holding a small windmill, showing a running posture. The windmill in his hand is not a stone statue, but a real red windmill.
The boy's appearance looks somewhat similar to the previous stone statues of men and women, and he seems to be the child of those two people... This setting.
Xu Xin still doesn't believe that these stone statues were once real living people.
He walked to the stone statue of the little boy and took out the windmill from the boy's hand.
[Small windmill (blue): The special airflow and smell produced after turning will attract the attention of low-level mutant beasts. Maybe mutant beasts also like to play with windmills? 】
Another prop related to mutated beasts.
This seems to be a set of tools, attracting, contracting, and then receiving.
However, Xu Xin noticed that in the introduction of these three props, it was clearly stated that they were used on "low-level" mutated beasts.
Of course, this may be related to the level of the item, but how low is this low level?
The blood-striped bat is that low? Blood-striped toad that low? Or are the blood-striped rabbits and cats sacrificed in the altar also low-level?
After exiting the room, Xu Xin continued walking deeper into the corridor.
The first three rooms are somewhat far apart from the other rooms.
Xu Xin walked more than ten meters deeper into the corridor before arriving at the door of the fourth room. Although the door of this room is also made of wood, in terms of style and texture, it is much simpler than the previous three rooms.
I pushed the door gently, but it was unlocked and pushed open. Thanks to [Yunwu Intention] for the 100 starting coin reward, thank you for your support!
