Chapter 438: The Encounter in the Underground Prison(1/2)
Soon, he returned to the position where he triggered the mechanism.
Looking at the closed mechanism at this time, Xu Xin fell into silence.
That's right, the mechanism on the ceiling that originally fell down has now risen again.
The exit above the head has completely disappeared.
Good guy, now, even he himself is trapped in it?
However, it's normal when you think about it.
That is to say, he, with his increased jumping ability, could regard a hole in the five- to six-meter-high ceiling as an exit.
After a normal person falls, there is definitely no way to go back.
Therefore, there must be other exits from this underground prison.
"Hey!" Coco's cry came from ahead, urging him to move forward quickly.
The giant bugs in the surrounding cages were much more restless than the giant beasts. When he and Coco passed by, these bugs started to stir again.
Countless harsh insect sounds were reaching his ears, making Xu Xin want to block his ears!
The sound of the bugs was at least ten notches worse than the previous roar of a lion, which was like an imperial engine!
Frowning, he quickened his pace and soon caught up with Coco in front.
He is now in the dungeon passage on the other side.
There was basically no difference from the place where he had just reached the end.
After going downhill for a while, it began to spiral downwards. The size of the prison gradually became larger, and the underground creatures imprisoned in it also became larger and larger.
And here, a giant beast is also imprisoned.
A giant python that is half as tall as a prison cell when it is coiled!
The blue-gray scales glowed with a colder light than the cell walls. The scarlet vertical pupils tightened even more when they saw Xu Xin. The python's head hit the golden cell railing with a "bang".
"Hey!" Coco was startled, climbed onto Xu Xin's shoulders twice, and waved her little paws at the giant python in the cage.
As for Xu Xin, it didn't matter. He even rubbed Coco's little head and said with a smile: "This guy can't get out. Otherwise, why don't you get in and try?"
"嘘!嘘嘤!" Coco protested, saying that Xu Xin was letting him die.
Xu Xin raised his head and glanced at the giant python, then continued walking forward.
The huge snake-shaped creature didn't seem that scary to him.
He has long been used to it.
Just a few days after entering this world and just passing the novice protection period, he had already seen a giant anaconda that was almost the same size as the python in front of him.
Moreover, the giant anaconda later became even more powerful, reaching at least a hundred meters in length.
The giant anaconda at this time was much more oppressive than the giant python that was coiled in the prison and banging its head against the metal railing.
Therefore, compared to the giant anaconda in the middle of the lake, this "little guy" in front of us is really nothing interesting.
There are also eight giant beast cages here, but except for the giant python's cage, the other seven are empty.
He kept walking forward.
Then, I saw an unexpected person at the end.
"Hey!" Coco greeted the people in the cell.
"...You were actually imprisoned too." Xu Xin was a little surprised.
"Ah, Xu Xin! You're here! I...oh, I'm so embarrassed!"
After seeing Xu Xin come in, Wen Guixin, who was lying on the bed with her hands behind her head, immediately sat up from the bed. When she saw Xu Xin, she immediately said a little embarrassed.
Well, unexpected, but within reason.
He guessed that these two people should be faster than him and should have arrived earlier than him.
Now it seems that his guess was correct.
However, they are all quite reckless and are all locked up here.
In fact, we can't blame them.
If Coco hadn't reminded him to stop, Xu Xin would have approached the vine bundle directly.
"You also stepped on the vines and fell?" Xu Xin asked.
"Yeah? You too?" Wen Guixin turned her head and looked at him, "Then why aren't you in the cell?"
"I didn't miss the mark." Xu Xin shook his head and touched Coco's little head, "It's all thanks to this little guy."
"Hey!" Coco raised her little head.
"...What do you mean?" Wen Guixin was stunned for a moment, and then responded, "Oh, you got in through the gap in the vine bundle, right? I saw that gap too. But since you didn't step on it,
Kong, then how do you know that I came down by stepping on the sky?"
"Because I just met Zhao Xiaochuan, and he is in the same situation as you now."
Xu Xin told her the information he got from Zhao Xiaochuan.
Wen Guixin frowned when she mentioned that he fell into a coma after falling and lay on the bed when he woke up.
"What's wrong? Your experience is different from his?" Xu Xin asked.
"Well... I also fell into a coma when I fell... No." Wen Guixin shook her head, "I shouldn't have been in a coma, but my consciousness was very blurred. In my confusion, I seemed to see a few people.
"
Did you see... people?
Xu Xin felt a sudden change in her heart.
"Are you sure it's a human?" he asked immediately.
Wen Guixin nodded: "It must be a human being, no... I just can see the human form, maybe it's that kind of furry weirdo? At that time, I thought it was a few of you, and I was a little excited, but my consciousness was too vague.
I couldn't make any sound. However, I immediately knew that they were not you."
"What's the meaning?"
"Because, those few people came to me and wanted to lift my body. It is definitely impossible for you to do such a thing." Wen Guixin said.
...That's true.
Everyone among the Explorers knew that Wen Guixin's abilities made it impossible to touch her body.
"Then what?" Xu Xin asked.
"Then? Then those people fell down." Wen Guixin spread her hands, showing a somewhat innocent expression, "Don't blame me, who let them touch me at will. Later, my consciousness became even more blurred, and my eyes
I couldn't even force myself to open it. I just felt that my body was being lifted onto something, dangling here and there, probably moving, and then I heard the sound of the cell door opening and closing. When I regained consciousness,
I’m already lying on the bed here.”
Were Wen Guixin and Zhao Xiaochuan moved here by someone?
But...she has knocked down several people in her confusion?
As expected of the "Empress", no one can touch her body.
But this situation is not of much help to their current situation.
After all, Xu Xin still can't find a way to let the two of them out.
These two sides are like two symmetrical dungeons, where are the mechanisms that can be triggered?
But Xu Xin knew that there must be an exit here.
After all, his entrance has been blocked, and if he can't find the exit, even he himself will be trapped here.
"So, your backpack can't be used anymore?" Xu Xin asked.
"Yeah, I can't take out anything, not even a weapon." Wen Guixin sighed.
Her weapon was the purple-level scythe that Xu Xin made at that time. It definitely couldn't be hung around like Zhao Xiaochuan's dagger, so she really didn't even have a weapon now.
Xu Xin also gave her some water and food like he did with Zhao Xiaochuan, and then threw a purple-level dagger into her: "Take it first, you must have a weapon to defend yourself."
"A dagger." Wen Guixin took the dagger and played with it on her hand, which made Xu Xin a little dazzled, "I'm not very good at using daggers."
Xu Xin: "..."
How can you play so smoothly even if you don't know how to use it?
"You wait here for now, I'll look around to see if there are any mechanisms or exits." He shook his head and continued to look around for exits and mechanisms.
"It's up to you, Xu Xin."
Xu Xin first checked the surroundings again, and after confirming that there were indeed no other mechanisms, she became a little distressed.
What exactly is going on?
Because he had reached the end, he had no choice but to go back.
To be continued...
