The vine ball shot up at an incredible speed, causing everyone standing in it to fall down.
Fortunately, the vine ball only rose at such a fast speed for a few seconds before slowing down.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
"Did you see that just now?" Zeng Tao stood up from the ground and exclaimed, "Isn't that... a whole group of petrified creatures?! And... and they are giant petrified beasts!"
They had encountered swarms of petrified creatures on the ground.
But they were all petrified mutant creatures of normal size, with at most two petrified pterosaurs. They were completely incomparable to the petrified giant that was seen in the distance this time!
Xu Xin and Lou Feier looked at each other.
They had both seen petrified beasts of that size before.
It's found in that main vine bundle.
That was the group of giant petrified creatures they saw at the last moment of their exploration of the underground world.
Since then, they have never planned to return underground through the teleportation array because it is too dangerous there. Before they become very strong, going there would be suicidal.
but……
The number of giant beasts seen in the previous glance was obviously far more than what they had seen before!
"...Have those alien invaders' petrified creature plan succeeded..." Lou Fei'er's eyes revealed a hint of nervousness. "Should we consider those petrified behemoths as our imaginary enemies?"
Xu Xin took a deep breath and said, "Let's go back to the ground first and discuss it together."
After a quick trip to all the places this "elevator" could take me, I had a preliminary understanding of the structure of the World Tree.
I just don't know how he is going to pass on the ability to control the vine ball to other people.
After hearing what Xu Xin said, Shi Wanyun and the others stopped asking questions.
Soon, the vine ball returned to the ground, the vines stretched out, and the wooden door opened.
Xu Xin and his companions walked out of the wooden door and stepped into the dark space within the thick roots.
"Follow me." Xu Xin took a few steps to the side and reached out to touch the wall.
Then, just like walking out of a tree house, the wall softened and several people crawled out from the vine bundle they had previously crawled into.
At this time, there were only three explorers left.
Ji Chaoyang, Wen Guixin, and Wang Lei.
"How fast!" Wen Guixin asked in surprise, "How did you guys get out so quickly?"
"...fast?" Xu Xin was confused for a moment. "What do you mean by fast?"
He thought that when he came out, the explorers would complain that he was so slow.
After all, he told Ji Chaoyang and Wen Guixin that after he went out, he went to the underground space of the World Tree and the underground world for a tour.
It took nearly half an hour for the vine ball to descend into the underground world and then rise back up.
They must have been waiting for a long time.
What does "quickly" mean?
"It's really fast." Ji Chaoyang also looked surprised. "You... couldn't get up? You've been stuck in these roots all this time? Didn't you find a way to get up?"
He seemed to have just finished talking to someone, and as he spoke, he crossed out the projection of his watch.
"...What are you talking about?" Xu Xin was genuinely baffled, then summarized his actions in a few words, "Of course I went up. Not only that, I went down as well. There's another space beneath the World Tree, and even further down, it's connected to the underground world. We briefly explored it."
"We just went to the underground world and saw those petrified beasts!" Lou Feier added.
"There's more space underground? An underground world? The World Tree is connected to the underground world?" Wang Lei's mouth opened wide. "Holy crap! Can I directly enter the underground world from the World Tree?"
Ji Chaoyang frowned slightly.
"You... have done so many things?" A hint of doubt flashed in Ji Chaoyang's eyes.
"Yeah, there's no need to be so anxious." Wang Lei sighed, "Didn't they just go in a few minutes ago? They've already gone to three places."
...?
"...A few minutes? What do you mean..."
Xu Xin thought of something and his expression changed slightly.
His brows slowly furrowed, and then a feeling of shock slowly filled his heart.
Could it be that...
"What do you mean by a few minutes?" Zeng Tao immediately jumped out from behind and retorted, "We've been in there for at least an hour, right? How could it be less than ten minutes?"
"Stayed for an hour? Haha, what nonsense are you talking about, Zeng Tao?" Wang Lei laughed. "Brother Chaoyang brought us here after seeing you guys go in. He even sent a voice message to Brother Xin. Brother Xin just hung up the message and it wasn't even half a minute before you guys came out. If you really count, you were only in there for two or three minutes, right?"
"Ah?" Zeng Tao's face was full of confusion. "What are you talking about?"
"So, you guys came out in two or three minutes. Wait... were you really in there for almost an hour?"
Seeing that Xu Xin and the other four were either shocked or confused, Wen Guixin thought of something and her face changed.
Ji Chaoyang seemed to be lost in thought, and speculated softly, "The speed of time flowing inside the World Tree is different from that outside the World Tree? That's not right... I called you, and we were able to talk normally. If the speed of time is different, how could the call go smoothly...?"
Ji Chaoyang’s thoughts are exactly what Xu Xin is thinking now.
