Chapter 132: 145 The Altar at Night

Has the appearance of the altar changed?

"What do you mean?" Xu Xin frowned.

"Literally." Ji Zhaoyang's footsteps came from the other side of the voice, "The four stone pillars and statues at the four corners of the altar are gone, the sacrificial table is moved to one side, and a stepped passage appears on the ground in the center of the altar!"

Stairway?

"A stairway leading to the bottom of the altar?" Xu Xin asked.

"It is indeed downward, but..." The footsteps stopped, and Ji Zhaoyang's voice became a little confused, "But this passage is a dead end, and it was blocked after only a few tens of meters."

At this time, Xu Xin had already moved away from the surrounding hills and entered the resource area.

To his surprise, the red mist seemed to permeate only around the hills, but did not enter the resource area surrounded by hills.

It is still the original appearance here, but looking around, there are hills filled with red mist all around.

"I have broken through the red mist, and I will go to the altar soon, wait a moment, I will check the situation on my side first."

"good."

Xu Xin rode Silver King and rushed towards the altar in the center of the resource area non-stop. It took him just over a minute to reach the altar.

Seeing the appearance of the altar at this time, even though he had heard Ji Zhaoyang's description, he was still surprised.

Just like what Ji Zhaoyang said, the stone pillars on the original four corners of the altar and the statues on the stone pillars have all disappeared, leaving only four smooth stone bricks in their original positions that are completely different from the rough and uneven altar floor.

The sacrificial table in the middle seemed to be pushed aside by someone, and the entire sacrificial table moved horizontally, leaving its original position vacant, revealing the dark passage below.

To him, it was like a coffin board sliding open, looking a little gloomy in the dark night.

Xu Xin rode Silver King into the altar.

"Crack." The familiar voice came up from the ground again.

He walked to the entrance of the underground passage and looked inside the passage.

Relying on the ability of night vision, Xu Xin could easily see everything in the passage, even to the end at a glance.

It's only about fifty or sixty meters to the end. Just like what Ji Zhaoyang said.

"Ke Ke, is there any danger here?" Xu Xin touched Ke Ke's head and asked.

"Huh." Ke Ke shook his head to indicate no, and climbed onto Xu Xin's shoulder. It knew that Xu Xin was going to enter it.

Xu Xin asked Silver King and Mimi to guard at the entrance of the passage, while he took Keke and Bat into the two-meter-wide stepped passage.

Unlike the stairs in the dungeon, the stairs under the altar were not damp at all, and were even very dry. The stairs and the walls were covered with thick dust.

It's hot in the tunnel.

Although the temperature is not low now, and there is no wind today, which makes it very hot outside, but the heat in the passage is stronger. The temperature has exceeded 40 degrees. If you stay for a long time, you may suffer from heat stroke.

Xu Xin wiped the sweat from his forehead and walked down.

There are patterns tattooed on the walls of the passage.

He looked it over carefully, and found that these patterns were basically the same as the patterns on the stone pillars outside, and at the same time, they were somewhat similar to the blood patterns on the mutated creatures.

Xu Xin reached out to touch it and found that the wall was also unusually hot. This should be the culprit that caused the hot and dry inside the cave.

The altar stone is also in a similar situation. When he touched the stone pillar for the first time, he felt a little abnormally hot, and the stone pillar would emit an astonishing heat during the sacrifice process.

Coupled with the fact that the wall has the same patterns as the stone pillars, Xu Xin speculates that this passage, like the stone pillars, needs to be sacrificed to light up the patterns.

Coco jumped off his shoulders and ran towards the end of the passage.

"Don't run around, be careful of danger." Xu Xin reminded Ke Ke.

"Oh!"

The bat had been obediently flying by his side, seeing that Ke Ke had fallen off Xu Xin's shoulder, it landed on his shoulder to rest for a while.

The further you go down, the hotter it gets and the higher the temperature.

When he reached the end of the passage, even though he had only walked fifty or sixty meters, Xu Xin was already sweating profusely and his mouth was dry.

"Hey!" Ke Ke turned around and yelled 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 her eyes, and reached out to pick it up.

[Damaged little windmill (white): The little windmill that used to have impressive abilities has been completely damaged after being sacrificed and turned into an ordinary little windmill. 】

It is the small windmill that Xu Xin gave back to the little boy's stone statue before.

It seems that Changyin's family is also in this underground passage.

However, since it is a sacrifice that loses its ability after being sacrificed, why does it appear here?

Ke Ke stood up and looked at the painting on the wall at the end of the passage.

"Hey!" Ke Ke touched the wall at the end of the passage with his small paws, and immediately withdrew his hand, rubbing his two small paws back and forth.

Standing in front of this wall, Xu Xin could clearly feel the billowing 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 gave off a slight light, so the pattern on the wall appeared very clearly in the dark.

"Is this moment... a bear?"

On this wall is carved an animal standing upright, with one paw raised to grab it down. Obviously, it's a bear.

The bear carved on this wall looked very strong, with extremely thick limbs, not like a black bear, but rather like the jungle overlord he had encountered, the majestic brown bear that looked like a ton.

What does this altar have to do with that brown bear?

In other words, ever since the brown bear seriously injured the Silver King and left with the wolves' prey, Xu Xin had never seen it in this jungle again, not even its red light spot on the map.

Apart from the brown bear, the strongest beast he has seen in this jungle should be the tiger that was poisoned to death by the mutated cat meat.

I tried to touch the wall with my hands, and the temperature was extremely high, it felt like 70 or 80 degrees.

Because Ke Ke was burned, she is now far away from this wall.

"Hey!" Ke Ke climbed onto Xu Xin's shoulder, pointing at the hot and shiny wall in front of him and shouted.

"Huh? You said there are good things behind the wall?" After cooperating for so long, Xu Xin had already heard the meaning contained in Ke Ke's cries of different emotions.

"Hey!" Coco nodded his head violently.

Sure enough, there is still a way behind this wall, but he still doesn't know how to open this wall.

Taking out the spear, Xu Xin swiped hard at the wall a few times, but did not draw even a shallow mark 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 dizzy from the heat, hurried out of the cave with Cocoa and the bat.

After coming out, he wiped the sweat from his forehead that was about to flow into his eyes, and let out a long breath 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 over there?"

"Just 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's side is not very hot. Although the stone wall does emit some heat, the temperature is relatively normal, only a few degrees hotter than the ground.

On Xu Xin's side, when he walked to the end, the air temperature was already ridiculously high. He had been in the sauna, and the temperature in the sauna was around 55 degrees, and the end below the altar was definitely hotter than the sauna, and it was much drier, hot and dry, it was torture.

Another difference is that on Ji Chaoyang's stone wall, there is a ferocious tiger carved on it.

"...Tell me, is the thing carved on that wall a sacrifice that you want us to offer? Sacrifice the beast carved on the wall, and you can open the wall blocking the passage." Xu Xin thought asked.

"There is also a possibility that the beasts carved on the wall are actually behind this wall." Ji Zhaoyang also expressed his speculation, "And we need to increase the progress of offering sacrifices to the 'gods' to open up this wall." fan the wall."

What Ji Zhaoyang said was not without reason.

Xu Xin hadn't seen that brown bear for a long time. That brown bear possessed absolute strength. Even if it was an ordinary mid-level mutant beast, a slap by it would kill it.

If anyone in this world can restrict its activities, then this 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 blow up all the mid-level mutated creatures Xu Xin has seen so far.

Obviously, now the deepest wall of the passage 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 sacrifice to the altar.

Just now when Xu Xin touched the hot wall, there was no prompt, so he didn't know if his guess was right, but he felt that the temperature in the passage might be related to the progress of the sacrifice.

As for why his side is hotter than Ji Zhaoyang's side, it's probably because Changyin's family has come here to offer sacrifices, making the altar's sacrifice progress faster than Ji Zhaoyang's side.

From the small windmill of Changyin's family falling in the passage, we can know that the 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, they didn't just come here, did they? !

No, it shouldn't be. There is a layer of dust on the ground in the passage, and there are faint footprints on it when he stepped on it. When he came in, there were no other people's footprints on the ground, which meant that Changyin and the others didn't come here just now.

Xu Xin's brain was running crazily, thinking about possibilities.

Ji Zhaoyang told him that he did not go back to the tree house at night during the hunting activities in the jungle, but still hunted near the altar, and the altar did not change at night.

In other words, the abnormality of the altar tonight 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 is only opened on a moonless night?

The moon in this world is not like that on the earth. There will be a moonless night every other month. He has noticed before that sometimes the previous day is still a new moon, and the next day will be full moon directly.

After the two discussed, they unanimously decided to come again during the day tomorrow to confirm the changes to the altar. Once the beast returns, sacrifices are immediately put on the agenda.

After hanging up the call, Xu Xin let out a sigh of relief.
