The appearance of the altar has changed?
"What do you mean?" Xu Xin frowned.
"Literally." Ji Chaoyang's footsteps came from the other side of the voice. "The four stone pillars and the statues on the four corners of the altar are gone. The altar is moved to one side, and a staircase appears on the ground in the center of the altar!"
Stairway?
"The staircase leading to the bottom of the altar?" Xu Xin asked.
"It's really down, but..." The footsteps stopped, and Ji Chaoyang's voice became a little confused, "But this passage is a dead end, and it was blocked after only a few dozen meters."
At this time, Xu Xin had left the surrounding hills and entered the resource area.
To his surprise, the red mist seemed to only permeate around the hills, but did not enter the resource area surrounded by the hills.
The place is still the same as before, but looking around, there are hills filled with red mist all around.
"I've broken through the red fog, and I'll be at the altar soon. Wait a minute, I'll take a look at the situation on my side first."
"it is good."
Xu Xin rode on the silver king and rushed towards the altar in the center of the resource area non-stop. In just over a minute, he had already arrived at the altar.
Seeing the appearance of the altar at this time, even though he had heard Ji Chaoyang's description, he was still surprised.
As Ji Chaoyang said, the stone pillars on the original four corners of the altar and the withered statues on the stone pillars have all disappeared, leaving only four smooth stone bricks that are completely different from the rough altar floor in their original positions.
The sacrificial table in the middle seemed to be pushed aside by someone. The entire sacrificial table was moved, and the original position was vacated, revealing the dark passage below.
It gave him the feeling that it was like a sliding coffin board, which looked a little gloomy in the dark night.
Xu Xin stepped into the altar on the silver king.
"Crack." A familiar voice came from the ground again.
He walked to the entrance of the underground passage and looked inside the passage.
With the ability of night vision, Xu Xin could easily see everything in the passage, and even saw the end at a glance.
It was only about fifty or sixty meters away. Just like what Ji Chaoyang said.
"Coco, is there any danger here?" Xu Xin touched Coco's head and asked.
"Huh." Coco shook his head to indicate no, and climbed onto Xu Xin's shoulder. It knew that Xu Xin was about to enter it.
Xu Xin asked Yin Wang and Mimi to guard at the entrance of the passage, and she took Coco and Bat to step into the two-meter-wide stair passage.
Unlike the stairs in the dungeon, the stairs under the altar were not damp at all, even very dry, and the stairs and walls were covered with thick dust.
It's hot inside the tunnel.
Although the temperature is not low now, and there is no wind today, it is very hot outside, but the heat in the passage is stronger, the temperature has exceeded 40 degrees, and if you stay for a long time, you may suffer from heat stroke.
Xu Xin wiped the sweat dripping from his forehead and walked down.
There are some patterns on the walls of the passage.
He took a closer look and found that these patterns were basically the same as the patterns on the stone pillars outside. At the same time, they were also somewhat similar to the blood patterns on the mutant creatures.
Xu Xin reached out and touched it, and found that the wall was also abnormally hot. This should be the culprit that caused the hot and dry inside the cave.
The same is true of the altar pillars. When he touched the stone pillar for the first time, he felt a little unusually hot, and during the sacrifice process, the stone pillar would emit an amazing amount of heat.
In addition, the wall has the same pattern as the stone pillar, Xu Xin guessed that this passage may be the same as the stone pillar, and it needs to be sacrificed to light the pattern.
Coco jumped off his shoulders and ran towards the end of the passage.
"Don't run around, it's dangerous." Xu Xin reminded Coco.
"Hey!"
The bat has been flying obediently beside him all the time. Seeing that Coco got off Xu Xin's shoulder, it fell on his shoulder and rested for a while.
The further down you go, the hotter and hotter it gets.
When he reached the end of the passage, Xu Xin was already sweating and his mouth was dry, even though he had only walked fifty or sixty meters.
"Hey!" Coco called back at Xu Xin at the end of the passage, and there was something on the ground beside it.
Xu Xin stepped forward, saw something on the ground, narrowed his eyes, and reached out to pick it up.
[Damaged small windmill (white): The small windmill that once had a good ability has been completely damaged after being sacrificed and turned into an ordinary small windmill. 】
It was the small windmill that Xu Xin gave back to the little boy's stone statue before.
It seems that the Changyin family also came to this underground passage.
However, since it is a sacrifice that loses its ability after sacrifice, why does it appear here?
Coco stood up and looked at the paintings on the wall at the end of the passage.
"Hey!" Cocoa touched the wall at the end of the passage with his small paws, and immediately retracted his hand, rubbing his two small paws around.
Standing in front of this wall, Xu Xin could clearly feel the surging heat waves coming from this wall.
The wall in front of me is completely out of tune with the passage wall, like a baffle inserted in the passage.
The pattern on the wall even emits a slight light, so the pattern on the wall appears very clearly in the dark.
"Is this moment...a bear?"
On this wall was carved an animal, standing upright, with one paw raised to grab it. Obviously, it's a bear.
The bear carved on this wall looks very sturdy, with extremely sturdy limbs, not like a black bear, but a bit like the jungle overlord he has encountered, the majestic brown bear that looks like a ton.
What does this altar have to do with that brown bear?
In other words, since the brown bear seriously injured the silver king and left with the wolf pack's prey, Xu Xin has never seen it in this jungle again, and has not even seen its red light spot on the map.
Apart from the brown bear, the strongest beast he has ever seen in this jungle should be the tiger that was poisoned by mutant cat meat.
I tried to touch the wall with my hand, and it turned out that the temperature was extremely high, and it felt like it was 70 or 80 degrees.
Cocoa is now far away from this wall because of being scalded.
"Hey!" Coco climbed onto Xu Xin's shoulder and called out, pointing at the hot and shiny wall in front of him.
"Huh? You said there's something good behind the wall?" After cooperating for so long, Xu Xin could already hear the meaning of Coco's different emotions.
"Hey!" Coco nodded his head.
Sure enough, there is still a way behind the wall, but he still doesn't know how to open the wall.
Taking out the spear, Xu Xin scratched hard at the wall a few times, but did not draw even a shallow trace on the wall.
It seems that with his current ability, it is impossible to violently break this stone wall.
After carefully observing the surroundings, he found nothing else. Xu Xin, who was so hot that he was dizzy, quickly walked out of the cave with Coco and Bat.
After coming out, he wiped the sweat that was about to flow into his eyes on his forehead, and let out a long sigh of relief.
"...It's too hot in here." Xu Xin licked her chapped lips, as if a fire was burning in her throat.
He immediately contacted Ji Chaoyang.
"Well, did you find anything there?"
"Like you, there is also an underground passage."
The two exchanged information and found that their experiences were slightly different.
The most obvious difference is that Ji Chaoyang is not very hot. Although the stone wall is indeed exuding some heat, the temperature is relatively normal, and it is only a few degrees hotter than the ground.
On Xu Xin's side, when he came to the end, the air temperature was already ridiculously high. He had steamed in the sauna, the temperature in the sauna was about 55 degrees, the end below the altar was definitely hotter than the sauna, and it was much drier, hot and dry, it was torture.
There is another difference. On Ji Chaoyang's stone wall, a fierce tiger is carved.
"...You say, is the thing carved on the wall a sacrifice that you want us to offer? By sacrificing the beast carved on the wall, you can open the wall blocked in front of the passage." Xu Xin asked thoughtfully.
"There is also a possibility that the beasts carved on the wall are actually behind this wall." Ji Chaoyang also expressed his speculation, "And we have to increase the progress of sacrifices to 'gods' to open the door. this wall."
What Ji Chaoyang said is not without reason.
Xu Xin hadn't seen that brown bear for a long time. That brown bear had absolute strength. Even an ordinary mid-level mutant beast would die if it slapped it.
If anyone in this world can restrict its activities, then the so-called "god" is very likely.
If it mutates, it is definitely a boss-level existence. After all, even if it hasn't mutated, it can destroy all the intermediate-level mutant creatures Xu Xin has seen so far.
Obviously, the deepest wall of the passage now is not the end of the passage. There must be some way to open that wall.
If you want to open the passage under the altar, you must make sacrifices to the altar.
When Xu Xin just touched the hot wall, there was no prompt, so he didn't know if his guess was correct~www.mtlnovel.com~ But he felt that the temperature in the passage might be related to the sacrifice progress.
As for why his side is much hotter than Ji Chaoyang's side, it is probably because the Changyin family came here to offer sacrifices, which made the sacrifice progress of the altar higher than that of Ji Chaoyang's side.
It can be known from the small windmill of the Changyin family that fell into the passage. This change of the altar will not be permanent. They came here a few days ago, but when Xu Xin came over at noon, the place had returned to its original state.
...Wait, didn't they just come here? !
No, it shouldn't be. There is a layer of dust on the ground in the passage. He stepped on it and there were stubborn footprints. When he came in, there were no other people's footprints on the ground, indicating that at least Changyin and they were not just here.
Xu Xin's brain was running wildly, thinking about possibilities.
Ji Chaoyang told him that during the previous jungle hunting activities, he did not return to the tree house at night, and still hunted near the altar, and the altar at night did not change much.
That is to say, the abnormality of tonight's altar does not happen every night.
Xu Xin looked up at the sky.
There is no moon and no wind tonight, and the starry sky is bright. At the same time, the surrounding hills were still shrouded in red mist.
Could it be that the underground passage of the altar only opens on a moonless night?
The moon in this world is not like that on Earth. There will be a moonless night every other month. He has also noticed before that sometimes the day before is a new moon, and the next day is a full moon.
After the two discussed it, they unanimously decided to wait until tomorrow and come again during the day to confirm the change of the altar. As soon as the beast returns, sacrifice is put on the agenda.
Hanging up the call, Xu Xin exhaled.
