Chapter 440: Absurd and Funny Situation

The two of them stepped into the area together.

The familiar "click" sound.

Then, the floor beneath my feet began to slowly descend.

There was another click, and the gravity mechanism was triggered. My feet felt lighter, and the entire mechanism dropped rapidly.

It was as if they were riding in a transparent, unsafe elevator, staring at the rapidly approaching ground outside.

Soon, they reached the bottom of the circular space.

As soon as he stepped on it, Xu Xin felt the strangeness of the ground.

It's like stepping on soft jelly.

When you step down, half of your foot will sink in and then bounce back up.

The entire ground was the brown-black color of the earth, but when he stepped on it, he felt that the ground here was more like chocolate-flavored jelly.

"Hmm..." Coco seemed to dislike walking on such a ground. After taking two steps, she jumped directly onto Xu Xin's shoulder.

Walking on this soft ground does give people an uncomfortable feeling.

I always feel like there is flesh and blood wriggling under my feet.

He seemed to have only experienced this kind of ground in the haunted house in the amusement park before.

If you step on it suddenly, the soft ground will give you a scare.

No wonder Coco doesn’t like it.

Xu Xin squatted down and gently touched the soft ground.

It feels a bit rough to the touch, but it is indeed very soft and will deform if you press it lightly.

However, there were no hints.

Speaking of which...

They weren't actually stepping on a ball of flesh, were they?

On the back of...a giant beast?

Ahahaha…

How is that possible?

How could the back of a giant beast be so soft?

Although he thought so, Xu Xin had already started to sweat on his head.

The more I think about it, the more terrifying it becomes.

His identification ability cannot identify living organisms, but can only identify materials separated from dead organisms.

And this ground just cannot be identified.

Shit, if there really is some giant beast beneath the ground, wouldn't that be too terrifying?!

Xu Xin shook his head and temporarily put this idea out of his mind.

But his pace was getting faster and faster.

"What's wrong, Brother Xin? Why are you walking so fast?" Wang Lei caught up with him.

"This should be the lowest level of the underground prison. Perhaps we can find the door to open the cells of Zhao Xiaochuan and Wen Guixin from the inside." Xu Xin said as he walked.

"Door? If there's a door, there shouldn't be one here, right?" Wang Lei asked. "I circled around here several times before I found the gravity mechanism I could step on. I climbed up, but I didn't find anything else."

"Maybe there are other mechanisms." Xu Xin touched Keke's little head. "Keke, I'm counting on you. Find out if there's anything special here."

The manager of this prison has completely died. He doesn't know whether there will be a new manager, but at least now they can only explore this dungeon on their own.

From this perspective, the death of all dungeon managers isn't always a good thing.

Maybe if they are still alive, they can provide some information.

"Ying!" Coco responded immediately and jumped off his shoulder.

As a result, when it stepped on the soft ground, it immediately cried "嘤!" again, jumped up on the spot, and climbed back onto Xu Xin's shoulder again.

"... Coco, do you know what this soft ground beneath your feet is?"

Seeing Coco's actions, Xu Xin felt even more uneasy.

This little guy's behavior doesn't seem to be because he feels uncomfortable stepping on it, but...

A little scared?

"Hmm..." Coco shook her little head, indicating that she didn't know, but she just didn't want to go down and walk by herself.

"What's wrong with the ground?" Wang Lei stepped on it and jumped on it. "It's quite fun. It's soft and bouncy. I'm sure kids like this kind of place, right?"

Xu Xin saw his eyelids twitching and quickly stopped him: "Alright, stop it. Let's quickly look for the surrounding mechanisms."

The two continued walking around the edge of the dungeon.

Xu Xin planned that if he couldn't find the mechanism, he would eat the only purple-level red berry left in his backpack, and look through the metal prison to see where the mechanism was.

But he was still a little hesitant. Firstly, he only had this one red berry, and secondly...

The upper part of this metal prison emits purple light, and the lower part emits golden light.

Especially here at the bottom, the gold is even more dazzling than above.

Can purple-level red berries really see through gold-level materials?

"Hmm!" Coco suddenly cried out.

"Have you found the mechanism?" Xu Xin was slightly happy.

"Hmm!" Coco pointed at a wall with her little paw.

Xu Xin immediately took two steps forward and reached out to touch it.

[Mechanical Device (Gold): This mechanical device is used for emergency situations. Pressing hard can trigger it, but it requires a lot of force. Once triggered, it will open the inner door of the survivor's cell at the bottom of the underground prison.]

An emergency mechanical device? A prison for survivors?

That should be right!

Here is the mechanism leading to the small prison where those two people are imprisoned!

Xu Xin pressed down hard.

result……

No pressure.

Just press the mechanism down a little bit.

Then, as his strength decreased, it bounced back.

"...Wang Lei, you are strong, you come and press it. This is an emergency mechanism that requires strength." Xu Xin retreated helplessly.

"Need strength? Then I'll do it!" Wang Lei also reached out and touched it, then got a prompt, "Emergency mechanism? Press hard to trigger it? What will it trigger? Press it, nothing will happen, right?"

He lacked the ability to discern and failed to see the second half of the introduction Xu Xin received.

"Just press it. I've got detailed information. This is the path to the prison where those two people are being held."

"Okay! I'll press it then!"

Wang Lei still had great trust in Xu Xin, and immediately pressed down hard.

"Fuck, this button is quite hard to press!" He increased his strength again.

“Ka…ka…ka!”

As he pressed, some mechanical sounds came from the interior of the underground prison. Even the soft ground beneath his feet could feel a slight vibration, and then...

A door opened before their eyes.
