Starting Off Survival With A Small Treehouse

Chapter 429 The smell of red mist has become stronger (a 5000-word chapter!)

At this time, Xu Xin's watch vibrated again, it was Li Wenxi calling.

Although it is not yet dawn, she is already going out to mine with a large army.

"What's going on with you? I read what they said among the explorers, you have gone down to find some mechanism? It won't be very dangerous, right?" Li Wenxi was slightly worried.

"Don't worry, it's safe for everyone to explore together this time." Xu Xin smiled.

"Well, then you must be careful."

Xu Xin was looking around while chatting casually with Li Wenxi.

She said that today she planned not only to dig iron ore, but also to take people to dig saltpeter ore and black gold.

Indeed, saltpeter is now needed to make explosive crossbow bolts and heavy crossbow bolts, and black gold ore is also the raw material for universal alchemy materials. These two ores are also indispensable.

"This is a heavy burden for you, why don't you ask Aifei and those two little guys to help you, I don't know if they can enjoy your 100 times explosion rate bonus." Xu Xin suggested.

"Yes!" Li Wenxi also thought of this, "Well, I will take them to mine this time!"

Aifei's mining speed is very fast, but if there is no high explosion rate, the total output of a mine may be weakened.

However, it doesn't matter, the world is so big, and Li Wenxi can prospect for mines, and he can make such convenient things as portals. The total production of a mine does not need to be considered at this stage.

At this stage, it is still necessary to give priority to improving the efficiency of mining.

"Okay, I'm leaving here too, so you have to be careful."

After hanging up the voice, Xu Xin had already walked around the iron room.

The smooth iron walls and floors are not cold to the touch, but can make people feel a little warmth.

That's right, he didn't pay attention when he touched the ground just now, but now he realizes that the walls and floor here are actually a little warm.

Probably, the temperature is around 20 degrees.

The temperature emitted by the iron plates in all directions makes the interior of this iron room relatively warm.

Compared with the single-digit temperature outside at this time, the temperature here is more suitable.

Moreover, it is worth noting that in this iron room, the gap between the wall and the iron plate is not perfectly fitted.

Instead, there is a very small gap.

This made Xu Xin slightly vigilant.

He couldn't be more clear about what this gap was used for.

Release the red mist!

That's right, at the beginning he was confused by the red mist released from this gap, climbing up and fleeing.

Since this room also has this kind of gap, it means that the red mist will also be released here.

As Lou Feier said before, there is a faint smell of red mist here.

He couldn't smell it.

"The sixth one has been found!" Lou Fei'er's surprised voice came over.

"Hey!" Coco also let out a somewhat proud cry.

"Nice job Coco!"

"Beep!"

Xu Xin walked over.

At this time, Lou Fei'er was standing on a sinking iron square brick. Seeing Xu Xin walking over, she walked out before the brick sank into place.

Then, she took out a stone from her backpack, placed it on the brick, and nodded with satisfaction: "It's done! I turned on all the gravity mechanisms and put a stone on it."

Xu Xin looked around.

Sure enough, including the square brick he stepped on before, a green-level stone was placed on it.

The green light emitted by these stones showed their positions in front of Xu Xin's eyes.

"Not bad... Huh?" Xu Xin said softly.

"What's wrong?" Lou Fei'er asked in surprise seeing him frown.

"The positions of these gravity organs seem to... symbolize something." Xu Xin observed and thought.

These six gravity organs seem to form a circle at exactly equal distances on the six vertices of a hexagon.

Xu Xin walked to the middle of these gravity organs and reached out to touch the floor.

And there is no hint.

Perhaps, after triggering the mechanism, something will appear?

"Huh?" Ke Ke ran to his side, tilted her head and looked at him, not understanding what he was doing.

Coco didn't find anything either.

It seems that he should have thought too much.

"Let's talk about it after they come down." Xu Xin picked up Ke Ke, stood up, and looked at Lou Fei'er, "What did you say that can make you stronger, and where is the specific location?"

"Hmm... It feels like it should be underground... Mmm! It's underground." Lou Feier nodded with certainty.

Is it underground...

"Perhaps, this mechanism is to open the passage into the underground?" Lou Fei'er guessed.

"Well, it's very possible." Xu Xin nodded.

At this time, there was a faint sound coming from the channel, which was captured by his hearing booster.

"They're coming down." Xu Xin came to the entrance and waited.

"Huh? How did you know, did you hear?" Lou Fei'er also came over and looked up, but couldn't see anything.

The two waited for another three or four minutes.

"Come on, they're coming down!" Lou Fei'er kept staring at the passage, and finally saw a figure at this moment.

Soon, the first person approached here.

"Stay away!"

It was Wen Guixin's voice.

The two took two steps to one side, and Wen Guixin jumped off immediately and landed lightly.

Compared with Zeng Tao's "bang" form of hitting the ground, Wen Guixin, who is also a high-strength fighter, is much lighter.

"Why are other people so far away from you?" Xu Xin was a little puzzled.

His ears can roughly capture the position of the person behind him, but he is too far away from Wen Guixin.

"Ah... um..." Wen Guixin said with some embarrassment, "My toxin can be spread by stairs, but Wang Lei was accidentally infected just now. I gave him the antidote, so he got down alone first. , let them wait for a while before leaving."

"...Amazing." The corners of Xu Xin's mouth twitched.

It can still spread through the ladder!

Fortunately, it won't spread through the ground, otherwise it won't work if you stand close to her.

"Your ability is so strong"

"By the way, what the hell is this place? There is such a long iron passage, and it is very tortured to make a ladder that can only be climbed..."

Wen Guixin complained a little, then looked up into the passage.

Although the people behind were far away, it was only a matter of two or three minutes.

Soon, everyone else jumped out of the passage and stepped on the floor of the iron room.

As soon as a few people came down, they began to look around.

Xu Xin took them to try those gravity mechanisms.

They were amazed by the mechanical and technological sense of the gravity mechanism.

"Huh?" Ke Ke suddenly let out a suspicious cry, looked up, turned his little head, and looked around.

"This space is really a completely closed iron room?" Zhao Xiaochuan looked around, "The whole room is made of iron? Even this organ is made of iron. Is it really iron? It looks like iron, but it doesn't feel like such a simple metal, what kind of alloy should it be?"

He reached out and touched the metal wall.

"Very likely." Xu Xin nodded, "The upper passage should be made of iron, after all, it is already full of rust. But this room..."

Xu Xin looked around.

The room was lined with smooth metal walls, without any trace of rust.

The material of this room is obviously different from the one above.

It should not be iron at all, but an alloy, or a new metal.

"Is there anything to be surprised about now?" Wang Lei stood below the passage, pointing to the passage above his head, "Such a long passage is all made of iron, how much iron will be consumed, the following one Isn't it normal that the room is also made of metal...Huh? Damn it!!"

"Hey!" Coco also noticed something unusual, and screamed, one paw pushed Xu Xin's face, and the other pointed upwards, "Hey!"

The exclamation of Wang Lei and Ke Ke surprised the others, and followed their directions.

Then everyone's pupils shrank!

I saw that the exit of the passageway above was slowly closing without them noticing!

An iron plate moves horizontally from the side, like a sliding door being closed!

It's already closed for a little while!

Xu Xin's pupils shrank.

The closure was silent, not even a friction sound, and his hearing booster didn't hear it at all!

"Don't let it close!"

"Stop it!"

Several people rushed over immediately.

Wang Lei, who was just below the passage, immediately came back to his senses. Without a word, he grabbed the ladder and wanted to climb up, trying to use his super strength to prevent the iron gate from closing.

But it didn't work out.

Because, the moment he climbed the ladder, the iron door seemed to sense something, and the slow closing movement suddenly accelerated!

"boom!"

The iron door closed suddenly with a loud bang.

In this iron room and underground space, the only entrance for people to enter and exit was completely closed.

On the ceiling, the original passage exit has completely disappeared, and the ceiling has become very smooth.

If it weren't for the fact that there was still a ladder left in the room, I am afraid that everyone present would not be able to find the exact location of the exit of this passage.

"this……"

"Hmm..." Ke Ke lay on Xu Xin's shoulder, her little head leaning towards Xu Xin's face, a little scared.

Whether it was Wang Lei who had just grabbed the ladder and had not had time to climb it, or the five people behind him, they were all silent at this moment.

There was a solemn color in the eyes of several people.

They were actually locked in this closed room!

Lou Fei'er subconsciously walked to Xu Xin's side, looking around vigilantly.

"...It seems that we can only continue to explore." Xu Xin said with a heavy tone.

This room actually cut off their retreat and prevented them from going up.

Is it because the detection of the number of survivors in the room is enough to activate the organ?

The level of danger for such a few institutions buried deep underground is definitely very high.

However, they were originally here to solve the problem of the big formation.

Moreover, Area 188 should be relatively safe before this cold winter ends.

Therefore, even if a few of them disappeared for a period of time, it would not be a big problem.

By the way, can the current watch still...

He was about to lift his watch to check, but Ji Zhaoyang had already put down the watch and shook his head at him: "The communication of the watch has been interrupted. We can no longer contact the outside world."

"No way...!" Zhao Xiaochuan clicked on the watch a few times and screamed, "I feel so uncomfortable, I feel that the watch can't be used, it's like losing a mobile phone in modern society, I feel uncomfortable all over!"

"Forget it." Wang Lei stroked his watch twice, "There are not many people in this world who have watches, and they can live well."

"I could have endured the darkness, if I had never seen the light." Zhao Xiaochuan scratched his watch with grief and indignation, and then his eyes lit up, "Oh? Although we can't communicate with the outside world, we can communicate with each other! Is this a local area network? ?”

Several people tried it, and it was indeed the case.

That's not bad.

Wen Guixin flicked his watch twice, then put it down indifferently, "Just solve it as soon as possible, let's go trigger the mechanism."

The few people present are all strong in District 188, people who have been on the world rankings, and have experienced many desperation, so they don't have much fear and fear about the current situation.

Although Zhao Xiaochuan screamed, he just felt uncomfortable that the watch could not be used.

Ji Zhaoyang was looking at the surrounding organs at this time, his brows were slightly frowned.

"Let's make up the booster first, and then trigger the mechanism." Xu Xin said.

Now they have no choice but to trigger the organ first.

He still has a random increase that he didn't choose, but after the mechanism is triggered, he can choose according to the situation.

Everyone made up the status.

"Then let's go straight to..."

"Wait a moment."

Lou Feier suddenly interrupted Wen Guixin, her expression was a bit strange: "Why do I feel that the smell of red mist around is getting stronger?"

The smell of red mist is getting stronger?

Several people carefully sniffed the smell in the air.

"No?" Zhao Xiaochuan asked with some doubts, "I didn't smell anything?"

"Sister Fei'er has a mutated physique, and she must be more sensitive to the smell of red mist than we are." Wang Lei didn't ask what the smell was, but scratched his head and said, "But, what does this represent?"

When Xu Xin and Ji Chaoyang heard Lou Feier's words, they rushed to the wall of the room and looked at the gap between the wall and the floor.

I saw that there was only a slight gap, but now it was already a finger wide!

Around the gap, there is a faint red, and at the same time, they can already smell a faint fragrance!

That's right, this is the scent of red mist when it is very light.

"Hey!" Ke Ke yelled, covering her little nose.

"Not good!" Both of them were surprised.

Xu Xin immediately turned around and said, "Quick, go trigger the mechanism!"

Ji Chaoyang immediately ran towards the farthest mechanism, and said at the same time: "The red mist is about to be released, activate the mechanism quickly, otherwise the whole room will be filled with red mist!"

Lou Feier immediately started to act.

"Ah? What do you mean?" The others were a little slow because they didn't know what Xu Xin and the others were talking about.

However, Xu Xin and Ji Chaoyang's tense expressions caught them, and they immediately took action, running towards the mechanism!

Xu Xin had already stepped on the organ at this time.

But what shocked him was that this time the mechanism...

There was no response!

There was no "click" and no sinking.

Don't move!

what happened?

Remember the wrong location?

No, it's here!

"Why can't the mechanism be triggered?"

"Yes, I am here too!"

Some doubtful voices came from behind.

"Bah..." A slight sound of exhalation came from Xu Xin's ear.

This made his heart tighten.

"Oh!!" Ke Ke suddenly screamed, pointing to the gap in the corner of the wall, pushing Xu Xin's face with her little paw.

He immediately looked towards the gap between the wall and the floor.

There, there is no red mist released yet.

But the voice he heard just now is absolutely true!

"The smell of the red mist is getting stronger!" Lou Fei'er said at this moment, "I can already feel that my strength is growing!"

"What the hell is going on here? Is it the red mist that can make mutant creatures stronger?" Wen Guixin asked in surprise, "Are we... shut down?"

Damn, what to do?

Ji Chaoyang also frowned.

Although I don't know what harm this red mist will do to the survivors, but...

Just the smell, I'm afraid it can make people faint!

"Bah—"

At this moment, a dense red mist suddenly sprayed out into the room from the surrounding gaps!

The surrounding smell quickly changed from a faint fragrance to a strong fragrance, and then to a stinky smell!

Several people's expressions changed, they covered their mouths, and were about to retch.

It smells so bad!

Xu Xin glanced at Lou Feier.

Although she was nervous at this moment, her face was slightly excited.

Because of his request, Lou Feier's time to enter the Red Mist room was limited to less than half an hour a day, for fear of her mental problems. After all, the Red Mist is not a good thing.

But because of this, she can't enjoy herself every time.

So when she learned that she could smoke red mist here, her body even showed some symptoms of addiction.

Xu Xin looked at her, her eyes lit up slightly.

correct!

Lou Feier is not afraid of the red mist!

"Come here! I've figured out a way!" Xu Xin said immediately.

He took off the bracelet on his hand and handed it to Lou Feier who ran over immediately after hearing his words.

"Huh? Ah...!" Lou Fei'er opened her eyes, and immediately understood what Xu Xin meant, and took the bracelet.

"Let Lou Fei'er put us in the bracelet, it's fine if she stays outside, and let her let us out when it's all right!" Xu Xin immediately explained to the others around.

"Aren't you going to lose your mind in the red mist?" Ji Zhaoyang asked Lou Fei'er.

Lou Feier immediately shook her head: "No, don't worry, even when my mental power was low before, I didn't lose my mind, I just saw some hallucinations."

At this time, the surrounding red mist was about to fill in and surround them!

"Well... let's go in first, we must not be surrounded by this red mist, if we are surrounded by red mist, we will not mutate!" Wen Guixin said quickly, covering her mouth and nose.

Xu Xin nodded to Lou Feier, and Lou Feier immediately took the bracelet and touched Wen Guixin with it.

Wen Guixin immediately agreed and entered into the bracelet.

Fortunately, there was no infection through the wristband.

So, she took everyone else in.

"Contact with the watch." Before being taken in, Xu Xin pointed to the watch and disappeared into the room.

The moment he disappeared, the red mist completely occupied the entire room.

Lou Fei'er was also completely buried in the thick red mist.

She took a deep breath, with a relaxed expression on her face, red lights bloomed in her narrowed eyes, and two blood lines also climbed up her cheeks.

"Huh... the concentration of this red mist is just like this, it's not as good as the one in the log cabin."

She muttered to herself, then took another deep breath and smiled with satisfaction.
