Chapter 339 The secret hidden in the treasure chest
A purple-level key!
A key to control the Mimics!
The moment Xu Xin got the key, the original red dot at the location of the Mimic on the map immediately turned into a green light dot.
very good.
Mimics are one of their own now.
Silver King and Mimi have also sensed the changes in the Mimic, and their tense bodies have gradually relaxed, and they no longer make attacking postures.
Surrounding the treasure chest, the vines that always pointed their tips toward the Mimic no longer had any intention of attacking, and slowly retracted toward the ground.
Lou Fei'er was also slightly confused, and put down the dagger she had been holding in front of her: "From this treasure box, I can no longer feel hostility and danger. Has it surrendered?"
Xu Xin shook the key in his hand and said with a smile: "It belongs to us now... No, it belongs to our own box."
"I understand," Li Wenxi looked at the key in Xu Xin's hand and guessed, "The person with the key is its owner, right? You are now the owner of this Mimic."
"That's right." Xu Xin nodded and walked to the side of the Mimic.
Before Xu Xin came over, the Mimic opened itself up, opened its bloody mouth, and spat out the mutated vines protruding from its throat, which were hanging and shaking outside the box.
Well, it's like a dog sticking out its tongue to show kindness.
"If there is anything in your stomach, spit it out for me to see." Xu Xin looked at the Mimic that had completely surrendered and said.
After hearing this, the Mimic immediately retracted the vine that was hanging out like a tongue, and then closed it.
Then, it became motionless and did not open on its own, as if waiting for Xu Xin to open it.
"This is..."
Xu Xin reached out and touched the Mimic, and found that its body, which was originally soft and seemed to be made of flesh, now became cold and hard again, exactly like the touch of real metal.
He reached out to lift the lid of the treasure chest.
The treasure chest was not locked and did not require the key in his hand to open it. Although the lid was heavy, with Xu Xin's current strength, he could still lift it up easily.
Inside, there are still those dazzling arrays of gold and silver jewelry.
He seemed to understand somewhat.
This treasure monster should have two forms.
The first form is the one with a big mouth.
In this form, the Mimic can use its large mouth to chew food, just like it was chewing vines. At the same time, it can also spit out mutated vines from its mouth and launch attacks outwards, which is an active attack form.
The second form is the current form, that is, the form of a treasure chest.
In this form, the interior of the Mimic Monster is no longer the bloody mouth, but the interior of a real treasure box. Judging from the introduction of the key, what will be contained in it are all the various things it has swallowed before. Plant something. What cannot be digested by the Mimics will remain.
However, this second form of Mimic Monster should not be able to open, close, and move on its own.
The box was so large that after the survivors opened it, they could only reach a small part of the treasure with their bare hands.
If you want to see and get all the treasures inside, you must stick your body inside.
At this time, the Mimic can immediately transform into a cannibal form, close instantly, and devour the survivors who penetrate it!
...What a terrible method!
Even Xu Xin, when he saw the thick layer of gold and silver jewelry inside, couldn't help but want to see if there was anything else buried under the jewelry.
If it was just an ordinary treasure chest, he would definitely rummage through the contents.
However, these things shouldn’t be the only ones here, right?
"Can't you spit out the treasure yourself?" Xu Xin asked.
The treasure chest trembled slightly, then became unresponsive.
It seems that this is not possible, I have to find it myself.
Xu Xin reached out and reached inside the treasure box, but was immediately grabbed by two hands.
One is Li Wenxi's hand, and the other is Lou Fei'er's hand.
"Even if you get the key, isn't it too dangerous for you?" Li Wenxi thought of the scene where the vines were directly cut off by the closed box, and she was a little scared, "I'm not afraid of having my hand pinched off, and there doesn't seem to be anything good in it. …”
The Mimic seemed to understand Li Wenxi's words. Unable to move in this form, it trembled twice, as if to protest Li Wenxi's distrust of it and belittlement of its treasures.
"Let me come, let me see what's inside. I'm fast. Even if it dares to close, it can't catch me." Lou Fei'er didn't want Xu Xin to take risks, so she said.
"..." Xu Xin shook her head helplessly.
Both women couldn't see the green dot on the map, and they didn't know that the Mimic Monster already existed on their side.
"Okay, then come on and see what's underneath these gold and silver jewelry." Xu Xin no longer insisted. When someone is working, he is happy and free.
After receiving permission, Lou Fei'er immediately grabbed the wall of the box and jumped up. She lay down on the edge of the box, leaned half of her body in, and began to rummage.
She is about 1.65 meters tall, and the box is 1.5 meters tall. The box has reached the height of her mouth and nose. Of course, she has to jump up to reach the contents inside.
Seeing Lou Fei'er's posture, Xu Xin was speechless.
It's better for him to take it himself. If there is really a problem, wouldn't it be more dangerous?
"Fei'er is so dangerous like this..." Li Wenxi was still a little worried.
"Don't worry, it's okay." Xu Xin put away the halberd in his hand, and then couldn't help but pinch the face of Li Wenxi who was leaning next to him. Her face was smooth, tender and cool when he pinched it, which made him unable to put it down. , "It won't be a problem if you go in and search."
Li Wenxi grabbed Xu Xin's hand that was squeezing her cheek with both hands, but did not push it away, letting him squeeze it gently: "Is it really okay? Then I will too..."
"Found a good thing!" Lou Fei'er, who stuck her whole body in, leaving only her butt and legs hanging outside, shouted from the treasure box, then jumped out, turned around, and held a few scattered pictures in her hand. The contract card with blue grade light, his eyes were full of surprise, "This is really a good thing!"
With that said, she handed these contracts to Xu Xin.
[Mutated Beast Contract (Blue): You can contract a mid-level mutant creature to make it obey your words. 】
Um?
Xu Xin's pupils shrank.
Mutated beast contract?
A blue-level mutant beast contract that can contract with intermediate mutant creatures?
Several contract cards were filled with red fonts he didn't recognize, and there was also a faint smell of blood.
Although he didn't know what these words were, but...
But he knew the person who wrote these words!
Isn't this... the long printed font? !
He immediately took out the green-level mutant beast contract he had obtained before and compared it.
Sure enough, this is Chang Yin's handwriting!
Exactly the same handwriting!
This mutant beast contract (blue) is definitely made by Chang Yin!
Why is there a mutated beast contract made by Long Seal in this treasure chest?
Lou Fei'er had already put her body in and started searching again, so Xu Xin hid this doubt in her heart.
Let’s take a look at what’s inside first.
"Is this a mutant beast contract?" Li Wenxi glanced at the contract in Xu Xin's hand and recognized it immediately. Xu Xin also gave her one before she contracted with A Niu, so she was also familiar with this thing. .
"Well, it's a contract that can contract with intermediate mutant creatures." Xu Xin handed the contract to her.
"A more advanced contract." Li Wenxi didn't feel much about the mutant creature contract, so she gave it back to Xu Xin, and then looked at the big treasure box eagerly, "It seems there is really no danger! I'll go look for it too!"
Lou Feier was still rummaging around.
She put the gold and silver jewelry she was sure to have useless into her backpack bit by bit, but the contents inside the treasure box didn't seem to be reduced at all.
"What..." She jumped out of the treasure box and saw Li Wenxi standing next to her.
"What's wrong? Why aren't you looking for it? Let me help you look for it!" Li Wenxi stood on tiptoes and looked inside. "Wow, there are so many gold and silver jewels. If these things were brought to the earth, they would be transformed into billions of dollars." A rich man!”
"There are too many things." Lou Fei'er shook her head, "Besides, I feel like I have already packed a box of jewelry into my backpack. There are not many things inside. Why not just push it in and take out the things inside?" Just pour it out!”
Too.
However, it seems inconvenient to do it outside. Now that the Mimic Monster has surrendered, let's do this kind of thing in the tree house.
"Can you move by yourself?" Xu Xin asked towards the lid of the treasure chest.
The Mimic closed the lid, and when it opened it again, all the jewelry was gone, and the inside turned into a bloody mouth.
Then, under the gazes of Xu Xin and others, countless mutant vines came out of its mouth, and then bent towards the ground.
More than a dozen vine spider legs held up the entire treasure box, and then started running around Xu Xin and the others like a spider.
"It's so weird..." Li Wenxi blinked and looked at the moving box in front of her.
"It can really move..." Lou Fei'er's eyes twitched, "Like a big spider, I feel a little sick..."
Xu Xin signaled the treasure box to stop, covered it herself, and then put it into her bracelet.
Take it up first, empty out the contents, and see what's inside.
"Do you want to go back?" Xu Xin turned to look at Li Wenxi and asked.
"Huh?" Li Wenxi was startled for a moment, then shook her head, "If you don't go back, I won't go back. I... at least let me see what's in the treasure box. I care so much!"
"Well... then I'll go back first." Lou Feier pointed to her tree house, "You don't need me anymore, right?"
She suddenly lost interest in the big spider-like treasure chest.
"Well, you go back and have a good rest and adjust and prepare. Tomorrow, we need you to climb the snow mountain."
"Okay."
Back in the tree house, Mimi and Silver King went back to nest on the third floor, while Xu Xin came to the 100-square-meter space on the first floor that was expanded by the banyan tree and was still empty.
He made a dining table, then placed the Mimic on the table with its opening facing the side.
The Mimic Monster at this time is in the state of a treasure chest.
"Hey!" Coco followed Xu Xin to the second floor and was surprised by the sudden appearance of a large treasure box.
"Keke!" Li Wenxi picked up Keke, and the little panda looked at the treasure box curiously.
Xu Xin directly opened the treasure box lying on the ground.
"Wow!"
Countless gold and silver jewels flowed out of the treasure chest and fell under the table, covering several square meters of floor in an instant.
"Wow!" "嘤嘤?"
Li Wenxi and Coco were both shocked.
"So many treasures, so many!" Li Wenxi was stunned.
There are too many gold, silver and jewelry spread on the ground!
Even though this treasure chest is already very big, it cannot be contained at all.
Moreover, jewels are still flowing out of the treasure chest, with no sign of stopping.
...What the hell! This Mimic has robbed some dragon's treasure house!
Suddenly, a large object fell out of the treasure box and hit the pile of jewelry. It was unknown how many gold and silver jewelry were deformed by the smash, which shocked both of them.
"Is this... a stone statue? A stone statue of a little boy?" Li Wenxi looked at the thing that fell out.
Xu Xin frowned slightly, this stone statue...
The jewelry was still flowing outward and was about to submerge the stone statue. The two quickly dragged the stone statue out.
"...嘤?" Coco made a confused cry, then walked around the stone statue twice, stood up, tilted his head, and then suddenly realized, "嘤嘤嘤!嘤!"
It ran to Xu Xin's feet, tugged on his trouser legs, pointed its little paws at the stone statue, and kept shouting: "嘤嘤!"
Xu Xin knew what Coco wanted to say.
His expression at this time was already a little dull.
This stone statue of a little boy holds his legs tightly with his hands, making a crouched posture, with his head lowered.
Xu Xin reached out and straightened it up, letting the stone statue sit on the ground.
The stone statue of a little boy sat on the ground, staring blankly at the ground in front of him, with a dull expression, just like... Lou Fei'er who just came out of the bracelet every time, as if he had experienced something terrible.
The treasure box has stopped flowing out of jewelry, and the box has been completely emptied except for a small half box of jewelry.
There were a lot of jewelry on the ground, covering more than ten square meters, and there was even a small mountain of jewelry piled up beside the table.
Among the piles of white-grade jewelry spread all over the floor, there are many blue-green light spots flashing, and there is even a purple light spot, indicating that there are still real useful treasures among them.
But these attractions to Xu Xin are completely inferior to the green-grade stone statue of a little boy in front of him.
Xu Xinke was very familiar with this face.
This...isn't this the child of Changyin and Xuelan, the boy named...what's the name "Xiao Hong"? !
ah? !
Why is this little boy in the belly of the Mimic?
Thinking that there was a mutated beast contract made by Chang Yin in the treasure box, Xu Xin looked at the stone statue of the little boy and his eyes changed as he looked at the treasure box.
He felt a little chilly in his body.
This treasure chest is actually related to Changyin’s family!
In that case, what about that snow mountain?
Also, on the top of the snow mountain, that pile of stone statues that are similar to the Changyin family, could they be...
