Chapter 650 Altar and Petrified Creatures
This discussion lasted for a long time.
When Xu Xin came out of Ji Chaoyang's house, it was already three hours later.
Changyin followed Xu Xin out of the house.
Chang Yin also knew that there was likely to be a very serious danger here in the near future, so he decided not to let Xuelan and Xiao Hong come over yet.
Xu Xin and the others were not sure about the danger in the future, so he would naturally not let Xue Lan and Xiao Hong come over to take risks.
But he himself will stay first.
Because he has the power to control stone statues, he can help resist attacks from alien invaders that may come in the future.
"I don't live inside this World Tree anymore. I'd better live outside in the Crystal City." Changyin said to Xu Xin, "It takes a hundred days in this World Tree to live one day outside. I don't want to spend that long. I can’t see Xuelan and Xiaohong.”
"Yeah, that's fine."
The giant stone beasts are also outside, and Chang Yin can control them at any time even if he stays outside.
Outside the World Tree, Chang Yin controlled these giant stone beasts to enter the area covered by the canopy of the World Tree and entered the Crystal City.
Then, these stone statues lay down one by one in the Crystal City, just like the huge stone sculptures in the Crystal City, motionless.
Changyin randomly chose a crystal room.
"I'll just stay here." Changyin said to Xu Xin.
"Okay, if something happens, just ask the stone statues outside to move and we will know."
Xu Xin did not give Changyin the authority to enter and exit the World Tree at will.
Although he felt that Changyin himself could be trusted, it was not clear where his petrification ability came from.
Therefore, even though the group of petrified giant beasts that Changyin can control is a very powerful force for World Tree, Xu Xin cannot regard him as one of his own for the time being.
Back in the villa in the World Tree, Xu Xin sat on the sofa and let out a long sigh.
"Ah, you're finally back, it's been two days." Li Wenxi looked down from the second floor, "Has the Changyin matter been dealt with?"
Although Xu Xin and the others only chatted with Chang Yin for three hours, they went out to pick up Chang Yin and just sent Chang Yin away outside the World Tree.
This pick-up and drop-off took at least half an hour outside, and naturally we spent two days in the World Tree.
"Well, we've taken care of it for now." Xu Xin rubbed her temples and felt a little headache.
"Changyin? Ah, what is going on with that guy? Tell us quickly!" Lou Fei'er's voice also came down from the second floor.
Then, the two women went down to the first floor and sat next to Xu Xin.
"Well... Changyin himself doesn't know very well."
Xu Xin said a little tiredly.
"Huh? Well, where is the long seal now? And that monster has been with you before, right?" Li Wenxi asked very curiously, "What were you talking about?"
"Chang Yin lives outside. As for the monster, it promised Chang Yin that it would teleport to Xue Lan and Xiao Hong and tell Xue Lan and Xiao Hong what happened here."
Since Chang Yin agreed to stay here, he naturally had to tell Xuelan and Xiao Hong that he would not go back for the time being, otherwise they would be worried.
"Xuelan and Xiao Hong? Have Xiao Hong been found?" Lou Feier asked in surprise.
As one of the six people who explored the underground world together at that time, Lou Fei'er naturally remembered clearly that Chang Yin did not return to the surface with them because they did not find Xiao Hong.
"What's going on!" Li Wenxi grabbed Xu Xin's arm and asked.
"Um...are you two the only ones here?" Xu Xin looked at the second floor, "There's no one up there?"
"I came here to play by myself, and I don't have any fixed tasks now." Lou Fei'er waved her hand, "Don't look up there, there's no one up there. Oh, there's a little guy sleeping up there. ”
She should be talking about cocoa.
"Oh? Your current task is to maintain order here, right?" Xu Xin glanced at her.
"Yes, but the people here are very obedient." Li Wenxi explained for Lou Fei'er, "They don't need to be taken care of at all."
Some of them are survivors who are very satisfied with this place and cherish life here, and some are members of the Wei family, a military family in the underground world.
There are less than a thousand people in total, so there really isn't much to worry about.
"When there are more people later, you will be busy."
"Then I'll just have some fun now. Oh, stop talking about this and explain the situation to us! I heard that all the stone giant beasts have entered the Crystal City to take over? We have really controlled those stone giant beasts. ”
After the attack of the stone statues, there were people observing the outside world at the console in the underground area at all times. This part was left to Zhao Xiaochuan.
If there are any changes in the outside world, he will also notify everyone in the Explorer.
"Well, it's under control."
Xu Xin briefly told the two women about Changyin's situation.
"Ah? Did you leave Xue Lan and Xiao Hong down there again?" Li Wenxi was a little puzzled, "It would be great to bring them up, why do they have to stay down there?"
"We can't guarantee our own safety. Chang Yin will naturally not let his wife and son be in danger." Xu Xin sighed.
"Isn't this right!" Li Wenxi was a little unconvinced, "Our place is much safer than the underground world, right?"
"Yes now, but what if alien invaders attack?" Xu Xin asked.
"Isn't it still early..." Lou Fei'er couldn't help but retorted in a low voice.
"Morning? Ha..."
Xu Xin glanced out the window and glanced at the direction of the monster.
It's not too early.
Why did the monster let such a vast herd of stone statues march over from a distance step by step in order?
Although there is also the restriction that free teleportation cannot be carried out around the World Tree, but more importantly...
This makes it more visible.
That's right, that monster is using his own method to realize the plan it said, the plan to make the World Tree conspicuous and then be besieged by the alien invaders' troops!
Such a large number of stone giant beasts entered the Crystal City and were subdued. This is a very dangerous signal for alien invaders!
The human military strength on earth is gradually expanding, and there are even giant beasts!
Or a giant stone beast that they don’t understand at all!
If alien invaders discover this situation, will they pay more attention to the World Tree here?
Of course it will.
"This..."
When Li Wenxi and Lou Feier heard this, their pretty faces immediately changed color.
"...Do you think the alien invaders have guessed that the monster is hiding in our place now?" Li Wenxi shook her lips and said.
"...They may not be sure, but they are definitely suspicious." Xu Xin nodded lightly.
"Yeah... the monster itself was exposed because of this World Tree. Now it has escaped from the alien invaders. Where can it go?" Lou Fei'er also looked a little solemn, "If I were an alien Intruders, I will definitely suspect this World Tree first!”
Yes, this is also one of the plots of the alien invaders.
The monster told Xu Xin and Ji Chaoyang that even if it didn't come, the alien invaders would definitely be suspicious of this world tree.
So let them be prepared.
"Wow... what should I do? I'm getting more and more nervous..." Li Wenxi grabbed Xu Xin's arm and squeezed it, "I feel like there are only a few days left before the exam, but I haven't reviewed a single course yet... …”
What a wonderful metaphor...
"What are you afraid of! We have a hundred times more time!" Although Lou Fei'er said this, her somewhat forced smile clearly showed that she was also a little nervous.
Xu Xin was not so nervous for the time being.
Now they also have a certain ability to protect themselves. A hundred times the flow of time, and hypersonic missiles with nuclear weapons, this is no joke.
Unless they really launch a massive attack, they won't pose much of a threat to this side.
But judging from the current civil strife caused by the alien invaders that the monster said, it is not easy to send troops to attack this side.
Of course, there may be a lot of wavelet harassment.
Maybe it's coming soon.
"In short, all we can do in this regard is to improve ourselves as quickly as possible." Xu Xin said.
Then, he frowned slightly again.
"What are you thinking about?" Seeing his expression, Li Wenxi leaned against him and asked.
"Oh...it's about us."
After that, he and Ji Chaoyang asked Chang Yin and the monster many questions.
Xu Xin also asked the doubts in his mind.
But...he didn't get the answer he wanted.
First, he asked the monster about the altar.
As a result, he learned from the monster that the altar was not built by the monster.
It was only after it discovered Xu Xin's group of people who were sent to the future that it discovered the two strange altars nearby.
There are two buildings nearby, one near Xu Xin's tree house at that time, and one near Ji Chaoyang's tree house at that time.
It can feel the energy of time and space from the altar, and there is also a special energy.
The monster was very surprised when it felt this special energy, because it felt familiar to it.
This energy is almost the same as what it has been studying for decades out of curiosity, the special energy of those humans in the underground city who somehow can still move after being petrified, and can even control the stones around them. Consistent!
This is true for both altars.
The energy of the altar at that time was still very overbearing and would directly petrify and devour any creature that entered the altar!
That's right, it was swallowed, swallowed directly by the sunken ground.
But it is not death, but petrification. If you want to save the devoured creatures, you must use the flesh and blood of the same kind of creatures or the most special parts of the body to sacrifice, in order to free the petrified creatures from petrification.
……
"Ah, you mean the altar surrounded by hills?" Li Wenxi said in surprise, "Is it not far from where we found the giant's head?"
"Yes, that's the altar. There was a similar altar at Ji Chaoyang's place at that time. At that time, we relied on this altar to resurrect the intermediate mutated creatures and then kill them, and we achieved the first and second place in the standings at that time." Xu Xin said.
"Ah, I know this." Li Wenxi nodded, "You told me before."
"Huh? What are you talking about..." Lou Feier was confused, "Are you talking about hunting activities?"
She had not heard of this.
At that time, she still belonged to District 187. Later, she wanted to kill Xu Xin and was captured. She was not trusted for a long time, so naturally she had never heard of it.
"It's like this..." Li Wenxi simply explained to her.
"Ah... there is such a magical place?" Lou Fei'er was surprised, and then she rolled her eyes, "Wait... then... then if you want Chang Yin and the others to return to human bodies, wouldn't they need... humans? The flesh and blood and special parts of the body?”
Logically speaking, this is indeed the case.
In particular, the special energy in the bodies of the Changyin family is still the same as the energy in the altar.
Therefore, the monster ordered people to make mysterious sounds to tell the Changyin family that there was an altar on the ground, and they could restore their human bodies through sacrifice.
Therefore, after the Changyin family came to the ground, they left Xu Xin.
Xu Xin later found traces of sacrifices made by the Changyin family in the altar.
However, the Changyin family seemed to use the props in their hands to sacrifice at that time, so it was not successful. They were also deceived by alien invaders into the underground world to conduct experiments on petrifying giant beasts.
"Terrible... I remember you said that if you want to break a stone statue and let living creatures come out, you have to kill at least hundreds of their kind, right?" Li Wenxi murmured, "Then Chang Yin and the others... ”
If according to this ratio, if their family wants to transform from stone statues back to humans, they must at least...
Sacrifice hundreds of humans.
Changyin also fell silent when he learned about this.
But he also said that it was good to be able to change back to a human, but it didn't matter if he couldn't change back. At least the stone statue's body felt safer now.
"Hmm...how did the long seal turn into a stone statue?" Li Wenxi asked again.
"...I don't know." Xu Xin shook his head.
"Ah? Didn't Changyin tell you?"
"I told you, but...he said that the reason why he turned into a stone statue was because of the first batch of survivors." Xu Xin said.
The first time he met Chang Yin, he had already revealed some information to Xu Xin.
The first survivors did some pretty outrageous things to the family.
The first batch of survivors, that is, the first batch of humans brought by monsters thousands of years ago, are the only survivors who formed groups to survive together from the very beginning.
After all, they are the first batch, and the selection is not yet mature. The selection format is very different from the current survivor selection.
In this harsh environment, there is no law for group survival, everything is based on strength, and the evil in the nature of the strong will be infinitely magnified.
This is not to say that everyone is like this, but among the first batch of strong survivors at that time, there were many such people.
And when I went underground and saw this family, it happened to be exactly this kind of person.
Changyin didn't say what those people did to Changyin OnePlus.
But Xu Xin suddenly thought of the frightening carvings carved on the stone table in the dungeon.
Among the random engravings, there are only a few legible fonts.
【They are all demons】
【Kill me, I want to die so much】
【You shall not die well】
When I saw it at that time, it made Xu Xin feel horrified.
The Changyin family was also petrified in this process. Then the survivors who entered the underground city were all turned into monsters worse than death by the Changyin family, and then stayed underground forever, in the flooded place. In the underground city.
Therefore, Chang Yin always felt that it was the survivors who turned him into stone.
It's just that they got away with it and were killed by themselves.
But the monster said that this was simply impossible, and that those first survivors could not have this ability.
"Hey, wait a minute!" Li Wenxi interrupted Xu Xin's words and asked doubtfully, "Weren't the first batch of survivors just forty-eight years ago? Was Changyin still a human being forty-eight years ago? He also experienced thousands of years Who is he? A survivor from a thousand years ago? Is he a lackey of alien invaders?
"...I don't know. At least from Chang Yin's mouth, he didn't know about it. He was even extremely shocked that the world is now a thousand years later." (End of Chapter)
