What does this altar have to do with that brown bear?
By the way, ever 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.
The strongest beast he had ever seen in this jungle, besides the brown bear, was probably the tiger that was poisoned to death by the mutant cat meat.
I tried to touch the wall with my hand, and sure enough, the temperature was extremely high, probably around 70 or 80 degrees.
Coco was burned and is now staying away from the wall.
"Ying!" Coco climbed onto Xu Xin's shoulders and pointed at the hot and shiny wall in front of her and screamed.
"Huh? You said there are good things behind the wall?" After cooperating for so long, Xu Xin had already heard the meaning contained in Coco's screams of different emotions.
"Oh!" Coco nodded her head vigorously.
Sure enough, there is a way behind this wall, but he doesn't know how to open the wall yet.
Taking out the spear, Xu Xin slashed the wall a few times, but failed to leave even a shallow mark.
It seems that with his current ability, it is impossible to break down this stone wall by force.
After carefully observing the surroundings, he didn't find anything else. Xu Xin, who was already dizzy from the heat, quickly walked out of the cave with Coco and the bat.
After coming out, he wiped the sweat from his forehead that was about to flow into his eyes and breathed a long sigh of relief.
"...It's too hot in here." Xu Xin licked his cracked lips, feeling like there was fire burning in his throat.
He immediately contacted Ji Chaoyang.
"So, did you find anything over there?"
"Just like you, an underground passage also appeared."
The two exchanged information and found that their experiences were slightly different.
The most obvious difference is that it is not very hot on Ji Chaoyang's side. Although the stone wall does emit some heat, the temperature is relatively normal, only a few degrees hotter than the ground.
By the time Xu Xin reached the end, the air temperature was already ridiculously high. He had been to a sauna before, where the temperature was around 55 degrees Celsius. The area below the altar was definitely hotter and drier, too. It was so dry and hot it was practically torture.
There is another difference. On the stone wall facing Ji Chaoyang, there is a carving of a ferocious tiger.
"...You say, are the things carved on that wall intended for us to offer as sacrifices? By sacrificing the beasts carved on the wall, we can open the wall blocking the passage." Xu Xin asked thoughtfully.
"Another possibility is that the beast carved on the wall is actually behind this wall." Ji Chaoyang also expressed his speculation, "And we need to increase the progress of the sacrifice to the 'god' to open this wall."
What Ji Chaoyang said makes sense.
Xu Xin hadn't seen that brown bear for a long time. That brown bear had absolute strength. Even an ordinary intermediate mutant beast would die if it was hit by a slap from it.
If there is anyone in this world who can restrict its activities, then this so-called "God" is very likely to be it.
If it mutates, it will definitely be a boss-level existence. After all, even if it hasn't mutated yet, it can defeat all the intermediate mutated creatures Xu Xin has seen so far.
It was obvious that the deepest wall in the passage was not the end of the passage. There had to be some way to open that wall.
If you want to open the passage under the altar, you must offer a sacrifice to the altar.
When Xu Xin touched the hot wall just now, there was no prompt, so he didn't know whether his guess was right or not, but he felt that the temperature in the passage might be related to the progress of the sacrifice.
As for why it was much hotter here than on Ji Chaoyang's side, it was probably because Chang Yin's family had come here to offer sacrifices, which made the sacrificial progress on the altar higher than on Ji Chaoyang's side.
It can be seen from the small windmill of Changyin's family falling in the passage that this change in the altar will not be permanent. They came here a few days ago, but when Xu Xin came here at noon, it had returned to its original state.
...Wait, didn't they just come here?!
No, it shouldn't be. There was a layer of dust on the ground in the passage, and there were faint footprints wherever he stepped on it. There were no other people's footprints on the ground when he came in, which meant that Changyin and the others at least had not just been here.
Xu Xin's brain was working frantically, thinking about the possibilities.
Ji Chaoyang told him that during the previous jungle hunting activities, he did not return to the tree house at night, but continued to hunt near the altar. There was no change in the altar at night.
In other words, the abnormality at the altar tonight does not happen every night.
Xu Xin looked up at the sky.
Tonight, there was no moon or wind, but the sky was bright with stars. Meanwhile, the surrounding hills were still shrouded in red mist.
Could it be that the underground passage of the altar is only open on moonless nights?
The moon in this world is not like the one on Earth. There is only one moonless night every month. He has noticed before that sometimes there is a new moon the day before and a full moon the next day.
After discussing it, the two agreed to come back tomorrow morning to confirm the changes to the altar. Once the beast returned, the sacrifice would be put on hold immediately.
After hanging up the call, Xu Xin breathed a sigh of relief.
