Chapter 90 Emergency
Inside this door, which looked completely different from other doors, was a small space like a storage room, but the contents inside made Xu Xin's eyelids twitch.
The facilities in the house look very complete, with wooden tables, chairs, beds, and a wooden cabinet. The door of the wooden cabinet was closed tightly, and I didn't know what was inside.
Of course, these are not the things that attract Xu Xin's attention the most, because in the corner of the room, there is a metal workbench-like facility. The tabletop is round, and the entire facility has a shape similar to an hourglass.
The most special thing about this facility is that there is a small screen erected on the bottom table.
Xu Xinke was very familiar with this type of workbench.
"...A workbench for treehouse making?" Xu Xin did not expect to see a treehouse workbench here.
Whether it is a synthesis table or a weapon and armor manufacturing table, there is a small screen raised on the table for him to view the production list, which is basically the same as the workbench in front of him.
There were no stone statues or mutated beasts in the house. Xu Xin walked gently into the house, came to the workbench he had never seen before, and reached out to touch it.
[Mutation Potion Synthesis Table (Blue): Can synthesize potions that mutate beasts. 】
"Real or false?" Xu Xin actually found a tool that can turn a beast into a mutated beast!
He immediately clicked on the small screen, and a familiar picture appeared, but there was only one production project in the entire compositing station.
[Mutation Potion (Blue): A potion that can turn a beast into a 100% low-level mutant beast. It requires contaminated mutated beast meat*5kg and a glass bottle*1]
Using the contaminated mutated beast meat, you can synthesize a potion that can mutate the beast 100%!
This contaminated mutated beast meat does not refer to the meat of bats and rats outside. Xu Xin had only gotten this kind of meat from the blood-striped rabbits and blood-striped cats that he had killed before.
This kind of meat is extremely attractive to wild beasts, but it is very toxic. Beasts that eat this kind of meat are very likely to be poisoned to death, and there is only a very small possibility of mutating.
But this synthesis platform makes the possibility of mutation 100%! Although he only mutated into a low-level mutated beast, the ability of contaminated meat changed from uncontrollable to controllable. He can completely use this ability to create mutated beasts and cooperate with the contract to work for him!
nice one! It's this glass bottle. He seems to have never seen it before. Glass is made of sand, but he has never seen any tools that can make glass.
Wait, the furnace! The furnace may be able to smelt glass. I'll give it a try when he gets back.
Xu Xin turned her head and looked at the closed wooden cabinet on one side. The cabinet next to the synthesis table, inside this, couldn't be...
Xu Xin habitually turned sideways and opened the wooden cabinet.
"Whoosh!"
"Oh!"
"嘤!"
Three crossbow bolts shot out from the open wooden cabinet and flew in front of Xu Xin. With a neat "click" sound, the iron crossbow bolt heads were embedded into the stone wall behind!
Xu Xin broke into a cold sweat.
There is actually an agency here!
Fortunately, he was more cautious and subconsciously opened the cabinet door sideways, otherwise the crossbow bolt would have hit it head-on! There are no traps in front of him, but there are them here. If he hadn't been very cautious every time, he might have really gotten into trouble here.
"Keke, why didn't you notice the danger this time?" Xu Xin rubbed Keke's little head.
"Huh?" Coco tilted her head and shook her head.
It seems that the little guy can only foresee dangers related to living things, and it cannot detect abnormalities with a pure mechanism like this. Coco didn't notice when Xu Xin almost fell in the maze before, but when mice and toads appeared, it could always detect the danger in advance.
Looking inside the wooden cabinet, the cabinet has three layers. In the middle of each layer is a crossbow fixed on the cabinet. The crossbow trigger is connected to the cabinet door with a thin wire. Just open the cabinet door a certain distance. , the thin thread will pull the trigger, which is how the three crossbow bolts were shot just now.
It was a very simple trap, not a professional trap. It looked more like it was set up by a survivor.
However, Xu Xin's attention was quickly attracted by the resources in the three-layer cabinet.
"This is...mutated potion?"
On each floor of the cabinet, there are two bottles of light red medicine, which are contained in glass conical bottles, and the bottle mouths are blocked with ground stoppers.
Xu Xin reached out and took down a bottle of medicine.
[Mutation Potion (Blue): A potion that can 100% turn a beast into a low-level mutated beast. 】
Sure enough, it was a mutation potion. In this cabinet, there are six bottles of mutation potion.
Xu Xin immediately put the six bottles of medicine into his backpack, and also put the three green-level crossbows into his backpack. Then he came to the mutation potion synthesis table and wanted to put this synthesis table into his backpack.
Although I don’t know what type of metal the synthesis table is made of, it is relatively small, so it is not heavy. Putting it in a backpack will not affect Xu Xin’s movements at all.
But the moment he lifted the synthesis platform off the ground and put it into his backpack, he suddenly felt the ground beneath his feet shaking.
He looked towards the original location of the synthesis platform, where there was a raised stone. It seemed to have been suppressed originally.
"...No way, it won't trigger another mechanism, right?" The corners of Xu Xin's eyes twitched.
"Hey!" Coco, who was already a little drowsy, suddenly shouted urgently, jumped off Xu Xin's shoulders, came to the door and looked into the corridor.
Xu Xin also looked out.
The amplitude of the ground shaking is getting bigger and bigger, just like the previous staircase passage.
"Those mutated beasts and humans won't be awakened and come to life, right... Huh?" Xu Xin stared at the end of the passage with wide eyes.
There was the first door he ever opened, the room where the male statue was writing.
At this time, under Xu Xin's gaze, the male stone statue actually walked out of the door!
That's right, the stone statue came out!
Really alive!
Apart from the fact that his body is still made of gray stone, judging from his movements, he doesn't appear to be a stiff stone statue at all. Instead, he is no different from an ordinary human being, natural and smooth.
The male stone statue turned and looked in Xu Xin's direction.
Xu Xin's pupils shrank, and before he could react, the second door opened, and the elegant female stone statue walked out of the room. She glanced at the male stone statue, and then turned to look at Xu Xin direction.
"Stone... gargoyle!" Xu Xin blurted out.
The two stone statues glowed blue in his sight. The [Humanoid Stone Statue (Green)], which was clearly a green grade before, turned into a blue grade after being awakened!
His identification ability obviously cannot be used on living beings. He can only use the size of the red dots on the map to infer the strength of those beasts and monsters, but these two movable stone statues actually glow with a light representing their grade.
What the hell are these two stone statues!
Coco had climbed onto Xu Xin's shoulder again, grinning at the gargoyle in the distance.
But the two gargoyles did not rush back to chase him as Xu Xin imagined. The two stone statues looked at each other and slowly walked towards Xu Xin's direction.
Xu Xin took out his crossbow and was about to shoot at the two gargoyles in front of him.
"Don't do anything, we don't mean any harm."
In the corridor, even though they were far apart, Xu Xin still clearly heard the voice of the female stone statue. The voice was gentle and soft, like a trace of warmth, which actually eased Xu Xin's nervousness. Um? This gargoyle can actually talk and communicate!
