Looking closely at the statue before him, he was dressed in splendid and neat clothes, like an elite from upper class society. His body maintained a writing posture, as if he had just written the contract.
Xu Xin looked around the room. Apart from the stone statue, wooden table and wooden chairs, there was nothing else in the room. It was just a closed stone chamber with only one door and no windows.
Apart from the stone statue in front of him that was still emitting green light, there were no other things with levels.
After hesitating for a moment, he reached out and touched the lifelike stone statue.
[Human-Shaped Stone Statue (Green): A mysterious stone statue that seems to harbor a strange vitality.]
After hearing this introduction, Xu Xin abruptly withdrew his hand.
It contains vitality!
Does that mean that this human-shaped stone statue will come to life!
"Hmm?" Coco was startled by Xu Xin's sudden action. It turned its head to look at the stone statue, then looked at Xu Xin, and suddenly jumped onto the head of the stone statue, scratched it with its claws, then tilted its head to look at Xu Xin, as if to say, look, there is no danger.
Xu Xin picked it up directly: "Don't move! This thing might come alive!"
"Hmm?" Keke was puzzled. Could this big rock come alive?
Xu Xin thought of the broken door bolt.
The bolt was inserted from the inside of the door, but there was only this stone statue inside the door, so who inserted the bolt?
The thought was horrifying, he pursed his lips and slowly left the room.
The door bolt had been broken by him, so Xu Xin had to leave the door ajar.
He had just thought that this stone statue was the same prop as the statue in his tree house and could be taken away, but he remembered clearly that the statue in the tree house was called a [Human-shaped Statue], and this one was called a [Human-shaped Stone Statue].
He had just tried to put the thing into his backpack, but it didn't work.
Why not? Because it's alive? Because a backpack can't hold living things? But is this thing really alive?
Xu Xin got goosebumps all over his body.
After taking a deep look at the door he closed, Xu Xin continued to walk towards the next door.
Xu Xin walked a few meters along the passage and came to the second door.
This time he didn't kick directly, but raised his foot and placed it on the door, then pushed hard. This would make the sound smaller.
Sure enough, the rotten bolt inside the door was broken off and the door opened.
Seeing the situation inside the door, Xu Xin frowned.
"Another stone statue?"
There was only one bed in the room, and on the bed, lay a stone statue with its eyes closed. Its seemingly sleeping face was facing the door through which Xu Xin entered.
This is a woman with an oriental face. Even though it is a stone statue, Xu Xin can still feel the beauty of her appearance.
The female stone statue lying on the bed is wearing gorgeous pajamas. Although she is just sleeping on a simple and even somewhat rotten wooden bed, she still gives people a feeling of nobility and elegance. Her temperament is not affected by the dark and dilapidated environment around her.
At this time, next to the pillow of the female stone statue, there was a sparkling ring emitting blue light.
Xu Xin walked gently to the bedside and carefully picked up the ring.
[Mutant Beast Ring (Blue): Can hold five tamed low-level mutant beasts. Remember, it can only hold mutant beasts! Don't forget to feed them, otherwise they will starve to death inside.]
A ring that can hold mutant beasts like a Poké Ball!
Before Xu Xin came in, he was still thinking that if there was a tool that could hold living things, he could bring the Silver King in. He didn't expect to see this type of tool.
However, it can only accommodate mutant beasts and has no effect on the Silver King.
Xu Xin reached out and touched the stone statue in front of him.
[Human-Shaped Stone Statue (Green): A mysterious stone statue that seems to harbor a strange vitality.]
The introduction is the same as the previous male stone statue.
Two strange stone statues and two props related to mutant creatures.
What kind of place was this underground city in the past?
Why are there some mutant beasts that are not completely contaminated here? Why can we find mutant beast contracts and rings that can hold mutant beasts here?
Who was that person who carved words worse than death on the stone table at the entrance of the corridor?
Could it be that this was once a testing ground for taming mutant beasts?
Xu Xin did not put the ring into the backpack to take up space, but put it directly on his hand.
"If you encounter a mutant beast again later, you can try to subdue it."
There was nothing else in the room, so Xu Xin retreated and closed the door.
Just as he closed the door, he saw something, and suddenly his hair stood on end and he gasped.
"Coco, when we went in just now, the eyes of the stone statue were closed, right?" Xu Xin asked Coco on his shoulder while standing at the door.
"Hmm." Coco nodded her head clearly.
The eyes were closed, of course, but how come he saw the female statue's eyes open just now?!
Is it an illusion?
Gritting his teeth, Xu Xin drew out the iron sword from his waist.
All fears come from the unknown, all fears come from insufficient firepower. He didn't want to continue to be so nervous, so he pushed open the wooden door that had just been closed.
The stone woman was still lying on her side on the bed with her eyes closed, looking lazy yet elegant.
"Did I really see it wrong just now?" Xu Xin stared at the stone statue with some suspicion.
The statue's posture and facial expression were exactly the same as when he first entered.
