Chapter 452 is finally out! (Two chapters in one)
This quick passage to and from the underground world is really shocking!
He thought they were just going to find a way back above ground, but now it seems...
It seems...
Do you want to open a two-way channel? !
This...
Xu Xin's expression became slightly serious.
This means that after opening this channel, this channel will always exist, and they can travel to and from the underground world through this channel.
But this involves a problem.
Are they the only survivors who can travel to and from the underground world through this passage?
Or could it be that creatures from the underground world...are also possible?
Is this an open channel, or is it a channel controlled by them?
If it was an open passage, I'm afraid they would be in big trouble even if they went out.
But...
A trace of helplessness flashed in Xu Xin's eyes.
This is also something that can't be helped.
Even if it's an open passage, they have to open it.
Otherwise, the activity cannot be completed, and the six of them will... "leave this beautiful world forever."
Let’s save our lives first.
"So, how's it going? What did you see?" Wen Guixin saw Xu Xin's wonderful expression and immediately asked curiously.
"...this key..."
Xu Xin told them the information he saw.
"Branches of vine bundles?" Several people around them immediately thought of the six vine bundles that brought them to this underground world.
"What I'm talking about are the vine bundles outside. There are six keys in total, and there are also six branch prisons. The numbers are exactly right." Wen Guixin said immediately.
"It should be right." Xu Xin nodded, "It must be those vine bundle branches."
"Hey wait," Zhao Xiaochuan looked at the key in Xu Xin's hand and was a little confused: "What do you mean, vine bundle branch prison? The location cannot be..."
"The place where the six vine bundle branches connect to the ground!" Lou Fei'er reacted and exclaimed, then her face turned bitter, "No!! Then do I have to go back..."
Thinking of what she had experienced when she arrived, she felt bad all over.
"If there are six keys in total, are the other five also in this warehouse?" Wang Lei looked around.
"Let's find all the six keys first. By the way, you must have discovered a lot of good things, right?" Wen Guixin tossed an ore in her hand and said with a smile, "Xu Xin, this one in my hand is also Gold level? ”
The piece of metal ore in her hand was indeed emitting golden light.
"Yes, it is indeed gold level." Xu Xin nodded, not only looked at the two of them more, but then suppressed curiosity and said, "Okay, let's just put all the other things into the backpack and find the other five first. Let’s talk about the key, it’s not safe here, it’s better to find what we really need as soon as possible.”
Especially for those stone statues, no one knows whether they will suddenly move. It is best to find the keys they need as soon as possible.
"Okay."
"Split up!"
Everyone now had their bearings and immediately spread out, looking for keys that might be on the shelves.
"嘤!"
Before Xu Xin started looking, Coco suddenly emerged from the group of stone statues and grabbed Xu Xin's leg.
Then he turned around and ran for two steps, and looked back at Xu Xin: "Hey!"
Are you asking yourself to follow?
Could it be that Coco also found something?
He immediately followed Coco and came to a shelf.
"Hey!" Coco climbed to the top of the shelf twice, and then with a flick of her paw, a key fell down.
Xu Xin immediately reached out and took over.
Sure enough, this is the second [Vine Bundle Key]!
"Good job Coco!" Xu Xin immediately rubbed the little head of Coco who jumped down from the shelf.
"Hey!" Coco raised her head and continued to lead the way.
This little guy has been missing for so long. Did he find all the keys?
He immediately continued to follow Coco, and soon came to a corner of the warehouse.
There were no shelves in this corner, but the floor was covered with large sacks one after another, bulging with no idea what they contained.
The sacks themselves were very ordinary green-level sacks, but from the untied mouths of some sacks and the damaged gaps in some sacks, purple light was revealed.
"Hey!" Coco climbed into the pile of sacks and pushed a large bag among them.
Xu Xin immediately stepped in and picked up the large sack pointed by Ke Ke.
Wow, it’s quite heavy!
[Growth feed (purple): Feed that can quickly grow juvenile organisms into adults, but the relative life span will also be shortened. Use with caution for non-mutated organisms. 】
Good guy!
This is...
Feed that can accelerate the growth of mutated organisms!
Everything in this warehouse seems to be related to the cultivation of mutant creatures!
This thing is a good thing, put it all away!
"Hey!" Coco got directly into the gap exposed after picking up the sack, and poked out his little head two seconds later.
At this time, in its mouth, it was biting a large key that exuded golden light.
Good guy, it found him again!
Xu Xin immediately put the keys away and asked: "Keke, have you found any other keys?"
"Hey!" Coco nodded her little head, and then jumped out from the pile of sacks, wanting to take Xu Xin with her to find them.
"Wait." Xu Xin stopped Coco.
"Huh?" Coco turned around and tilted her little head.
Xu Xin turned the bracelet and released the Mimic.
Since the Mimic Monster is here, he doesn't need to go to great lengths to collect these things.
"You swallow all these things and keep them, be careful."
The Mimic's lid clicked twice, then opened its bloody mouth, and countless vines sprang out.
Xu Xin followed Coco and continued walking, while shouting to others: "Coco can find the key. We have found the third one. Leave the key to us. Please try your best to collect the things on the shelves!"
"Ah, that couldn't be better!"
"Holy shit, is that Brother Xin's Mimic Monster? It looks so interesting!"
"Hurry up and collect your things, who knows if these stone statues will suddenly wake up!"
Others were not very surprised about this magical little panda raised by Xu Xin.
Soon, Coco led Xu Xin through the stone statues, arriving at one location after another, and pulled out a golden key from various corners.
I have to say that these locations are really hard to find. Basically, you can’t find them unless you collect all the resources and things.
The Mimic is also very efficient. After quickly eating the pile of feed and keeping it, it follows Xu Xin. Basically, the resources that exist wherever he goes are sucked into the Mimic's belly.
Along the way, he also saw a lot of resources.
In addition to the mutated biological agents, growth feed, and metal bombs he had seen before, he also saw a kind of metal ore.
These metal ores come in blue, purple, and gold grades.
Is this the ore that Wen Guixin just threw in his hand?
He picked up a piece of gold-grade ore.
[Meteorite ore (gold): A kind of extraterrestrial meteorite that came to this world along with dozens of meteorites fifty years ago. It is extremely difficult to smelt. 】
There was not much introduction, but Xu Xin was slightly surprised.
Ore brought to this planet by a meteorite that fell fifty years ago?
Fifty years ago, this timing was a bit tricky.
It must be related to the great disaster that destroyed this world!
And...
This golden-grade meteorite is probably the metal that made up this prison and the previous iron rooms!
Is it extremely difficult to smelt?
It seems that the furnaces of ordinary survivors are definitely unable to smelt this kind of ore.
I don’t know if Li Wenxi’s special furnace can be used for smelting.
Xu Xin immediately asked the Mimic to collect all the ores, and then continued to follow Coco to find the key.
"嘤!"
When Coco took out a golden key from the back of the shelf that Xu Xin had moved, Xu Xin finally found all six keys.
So, he gathered everyone at the entrance of the warehouse.
"I have found all six keys, and the branches of the vine bundles corresponding to each key are relatively clear."
In his introduction, the locations of the vine bundle prisons that these keys can open became clear.
The key at the beginning opened the vine branch prison in the north.
The remaining five correspond to the south, southeast, northeast, southwest and northwest.
Coupled with his map ability, he can easily identify directions even in the underground world.
All the keys and vine bundles are also matched one by one.
"In other words, do we really want to go back to the starting point?" Zhao Xiaochuan asked.
"That should be right." Wen Guixin nodded, "After all, only there are the six branched vines in contact with the ground. It is very similar to this side. Moreover, only the starting point can we touch the branched vines."
"That means we need everyone to hold the key and act separately?" Wang Lei asked somewhat depressedly.
"It's not impossible to act together, but... in that case, we may not be able to guarantee that we will complete the activity within the time limit." Xu Xin raised her hand and glanced at the time on her watch.
At this time, nearly twelve hours, half of the time, had passed since the event started.
They wasted too much time in this underground prison.
And...
Ji Chaoyang hasn't shown up yet. I really don't know where he went.
If he never shows up, someone will need to go over there.
Besides him, Lou Feier is also a problem.
At this time, Lou Fei'er spoke: "But, I really observed that room carefully, and there is no place where the key can be inserted? I stayed in that room for nearly two hours and basically touched it. It can basically be guaranteed that there are no mechanisms inside. ”
Her expression at this time was also a little unsightly.
The thought of retracing her steps made her head spin.
"But judging from the direction corresponding to the key, it should be that we return to the original starting point." Wen Guixin felt that there was no problem, "Maybe it is not in that room, but near the vine bundle? You didn't explore the area nearby. Let’s go.”
"Then...really not." Lou Feier said helplessly.
She couldn't detect it either. She just ran away as soon as she came out.
But when she thought about going back to the original starting point and thinking about her previous experiences, she simply didn't have the courage to run back.
So she looked at Xu Xin pitifully.
Xu Xin understood what she meant. She wanted to put her in the bracelet and play with it directly.
However, in order for the activity to be completed, perhaps she should not be allowed to act alone.
It was indeed too dangerous for her outside.
Moreover, judging from the introduction of the key, all six vine bundle branch prisons must be opened before the main vine bundle mechanism can be activated and the mission can be completed.
If something happens to her while holding the key, I'm afraid no one will be able to complete the event.
But if she can't act on her own, someone else will need to open the two vine bundle branch prisons.
No wonder...
No wonder when the event started, the mysterious voice said that refusing to participate in the event would have a certain negative impact on the partners.
Xu Xin glanced at the warehouse.
In the entire warehouse, all the resources on the shelves were looted by this group of people.
The Mimic is probably already burping in the bracelet.
Fortunately, the group of stone statues in the warehouse did not move due to rage...
"There is nothing left in this underground warehouse. What did you find?" Xu Xin asked.
"Ha, there are so many things here!"
"Let me show you!"
Soon, Xu Xin discovered that the things he found were all kinds of resources in the warehouse.
After all, Coco took him all over the warehouse, so he naturally looked at everything in the warehouse.
However, in terms of quantity, these resources are amazing.
The mutated potion he first discovered was obtained by several people, and there were hundreds of bottles in total!
One bag of purple-grade growth feed weighs about 100 kilograms. There are thousands of bags in total, which is hundreds of tons!
If it weren't for the Mimic, I'm afraid his bracelet and purple-level backpack wouldn't be able to hold so much!
There are also those metal bombs with petrochemical effects. There are more than 800 small ones and nearly a hundred large ones!
And the number of meteorite iron ores is the largest!
There are hundreds of gold-grade meteorite ores alone!
This is too outrageous!
Although he didn't know what the use of the meteorite iron blocks smelted from the meteorite iron ore was, so many gold-grade metal ores made them very excited.
"I don't know if Wen Xi can smelt this meteorite ore." Wen Guixin said, holding a piece of meteorite ore in her hand.
"The gold-level one should be choking enough," Wang Lei speculated, "The blue-level one shouldn't be a big problem, right? With the blue-level meteorite iron blocks, at least Brother Xin and Brother Chaoyang will know what this metal can do!"
"Indeed. But why hasn't Brother Chaoyang shown up yet? Where has he gone?" Zhao Xiaochuan asked in confusion.
"Who knows, that guy disappeared all day long when he was on the ground." Wen Guixin shook her head helplessly, "There are a total of six keys. If he never comes, why don't I open his side. He The bunch of vines is right next to me.”
Everyone plans to return to the starting point when they came down.
Although it shouldn't be necessary, after all, they have walked this road before, and it is safer to return the same way.
"Let's consider this matter later. Since there is nothing else in the warehouse, let's leave the warehouse first and go up first." Xu Xin rubbed his temples and said with some distress, "You didn't notice Is that so? We haven’t found a way out of this underground prison yet..."
"That's right!" Wang Lei clapped his hands, "Let's go up quickly and find a way out!"
"There is really no other way but to try to press the buttons in the control room." Wen Guixin said, "I hope nothing happens. Let's leave quickly."
All of them returned to the passage.
When we reached the end of the passage, everyone was dumbfounded.
"Eh... did that gravity mechanism go up by itself?" Lou Fei'er immediately touched around at the end of the passage, and then her eyes widened, "Isn't it possible? Are we trapped in a prison?"
The five people looked at each other.
I thought that Xu Xin, Lou Fei'er, and Zhao Xiaochuan came down through the normal way and took the gravity mechanism, so they could go back the same way, but I didn't expect...
They can't go back? !
"There should be other exits, right?" Lou Feier stood up and said.
"Is it in the warehouse?" Wang Lei turned around and looked inside the warehouse.
"Indeed, then let's go back and look for it. Maybe we can go out directly?" Zhao Xiaochuan said.
Although they couldn't get out, the people present didn't worry about anything.
After all, this warehouse can't be just in and out.
"Coco." Xu Xin patted Coco, who was drooping on her shoulder and was dazed, and woke it up. "Have you noticed the exit of this warehouse?"
"...Huh?" Coco's ears twitched twice, then slowly opened her eyes, and thought for a moment in confusion, "Huh!"
It jumped off Xu Xin's shoulder and ran towards the warehouse.
"Let's follow Coco."
"Haha, Brother Xin's red panda is really strong!"
Everyone followed Coco and soon came to a shelf.
"Ugh!" Coco yelled, pointing to the shelf, then climbed onto the shelf and patted the back of the shelf with her little paws.
Xu Xin immediately understood what Coco meant and raised her eyebrows: "Move the shelves!"
"I'll do it!"
Wang Lei immediately stepped forward, grabbed the shelf, pulled it aside, and pulled the shelf away.
And behind the shelves, sure enough, a new passage appeared!
"Found it! It's so easy! Coco is so strong!" Zhao Xiaochuan praised Coco.
"Hey!" Coco immediately raised her little head proudly, and then climbed onto Xu Xin's shoulders twice.
Xu Xin took one last look inside the warehouse.
Those giant stone insects and beasts have not shown any reaction so far.
Apart from them, there were only empty shelves in the entire warehouse.
Although the shelves are gold-grade, they have no special functions and are made of special metals. They are too heavy to be swallowed by Mimics and cannot be taken away at all.
It's a pity, but let them stay in this warehouse.
"Then let's go."
"Okay!"
"We are finally making progress!"
Several people walked into the passage.
Xu Xin was the last one to step in.
"Bang!"
The moment he stepped in, the passageway behind him suddenly closed suddenly!
"Fuck!" Zhao Xiaochuan immediately exclaimed.
"What's going on? Are we locked up?" Wen Guixin was also a little wary.
"...Keke, are you leading the wrong way?" Xu Xin asked Keke on his shoulder.
"Ugh!" Coco let out a somewhat dissatisfied sound.
"Let's go, we can only keep moving forward. It shouldn't be a big problem." Xu Xin still believed in Coco.
Moreover, this is the only way to go.
After walking for more than ten meters in this passage, upward steps began to appear.
"Start walking up! This is definitely the exit!" Zhao Xiaochuan, who was walking at the front, said in surprise, and then quickened his pace.
"Be careful, there might be a trap!" Wen Guixin reminded from behind.
Several people walked up the stairs.
Soon, after turning a corner, they saw a bright light.
"Exit! It's the exit from the ground!"
Everyone's eyes lit up and they were very happy.
Unexpectedly, this passage can actually lead directly to the ground!
He quickened his pace, and soon, all five people came out of the passage.
"Ah! This is... around the vine bundles! We are really coming up!" Zhao Xiaochuan, the first one to come out, said in surprise.
The exit happened to be the area around the vine bundles that was not affected by the giant beast.
"Huh, luckily it's not somewhere else..." Lou Fei'er breathed a sigh of relief with some fear. She was worried about this before coming up.
"Now that we're out, let's allocate tasks." Xu Xin turned to look at the others, "Ji Chaoyang is not here now, so we can only..."
His words stopped abruptly.
Because, he saw a person walking out of the gap between the vines.
"Fuck!"
"Brother Chaoyang?!"
"You are finally out..." Seeing them, Ji Chaoyang breathed a long sigh of relief.
Xu Xin was also very surprised: "You are actually outside..."
His words stopped abruptly again.
Then his eyes widened suddenly.
Because, another person walked out of the gap behind Ji Chaoyang.
To be precise, it's a stone statue.
There was still a tired but relieved smile on the stone statue's face.
"Brother Xu Xin, it's been such a long time since we saw you."
Um? ! !
Long seal! ?
Ji Chaoyang is actually with Chang Yin? ! Thank you to [Guanhe 1987] for the reward of 100 starting coins, and [Bookworm 1980] for the reward of 100 starting coins. Thank you both for your support, thank you!
