Walking to the trap that killed the Blood-Marked Wolf, Xu Xin took a look inside and then shifted his gaze.
...a bit disgusting.
This trap was a bit too cruel. He thought it was the kind of trap that stabbed upwards, but he didn't expect it to stab from all directions, directly turning the blood-marked wolf into a honeycomb.
The passage was very long. After eight mutant beasts died by letting them step on the trap, Xu Xin finally saw the second door not far away.
Along the way, in addition to the initial spike trap, they also encountered a series of traps such as crossbow traps, high-temperature flame traps, abyss traps, explosion traps, etc. None of the mutant beasts leading the way had a good end, and all died tragically in the traps.
These traps are not as simple as imagined. The crossbow trap is that the walls and ceiling around the stone brick all shoot out countless crossbow arrows, covering a large area. There is nowhere to hide. Even Chang Yin, who is closest to the fish pond, was affected. Fortunately, those crossbow arrows did not harm him.
Xu Xin simply put all the crossbow arrows he could pick up along the way into his backpack.
The high-temperature fire trap spews out fierce flames from the ground. Not only the trap brick, but all the bricks within a 5*5 range around it spew fire, making it impossible to dodge. The beast leading the way turned into ashes in an instant.
The abyss trap is like a crack in the ground in a maze. Looking down, it is extremely dark and deep. After stepping on the trap brick, the stone bricks in the surrounding 5*5 range will disappear directly, and the mutant beast will fall into the bottomless abyss with a wail.
The explosive trap was simple. Not only did the blast have a staggering range, but the deafening noise temporarily blinded Xu Xin. Flames burst before his eyes, blinding him, accustomed to darkness. Countless fragments of stone scattered in all directions, like a massive fragmentation grenade dropped into the tunnel. If it weren't for the stone statues blocking the way, he would have been killed.
Finally, after going through many hardships, they finally walked out of the range of black and white tiles and were not far from the second door.
"There's no danger anymore. Everyone, don't be so nervous." Chang Yin took back the beast that was leading the way.
"Are you sure? Let the beast lead the way to the door." Xu Xin was very cautious. Those traps were too scary. If he was not careful, he would not even know how he died.
"We've already passed that trap road. We can't even walk on this ground anymore." Chang Yin stepped on the flat ground and said, "Don't worry, it's okay. I'll lead the way."
As they walked towards the second door, Chang Yin told the story of the second group of survivors who came to the dungeon. Although Chang Yin did not help the second group of survivors, he followed behind and observed them.
He told Xu Xin that there were nearly thirty survivors in total, a large number, but in the end they all died on this trap road.
If only a small number of people were willing to sacrifice themselves, the majority could escape this trap. However, human nature demands that no one sacrifice themselves for the sake of others. Not only did they not cooperate, they even engaged in internal strife. The strongest member of the team forced the weaker members to venture forward into the trap, and the others not only failed to stop them but actually fueled the flames.
Finally, after several people died, the last person who was "selected" and forced to explore the way was driven crazy. He ran around like a madman, wanting to die with everyone, and triggered an explosive mechanism in the crowd.
Not to mention the survivors who were hit by the explosion, those survivors who were following behind and were not hit by the explosion were also stabbed to death or injured by the countless fragments produced by the explosion. In the end, this group of survivors were completely wiped out and all died on this trap road.
Xu Xin was silent. This outcome was actually no surprise. People are selfish. Unless it's for their loved ones, or a sense of mission in a special profession, most people would never sacrifice their lives for someone they don't even know.
After the story was told, they all came to the second door. Xu Xin pushed it gently from behind and the door slowly opened.
The scene behind the door startled Xu Xin. It was still an upward tunnel, its walls and ceilings made of stone, but the ground had turned to soil. Yes, soil! He had actually seen soil in this underground city.
"You survivors are really amazing. What kind of power is this?" Although Chang Yin had seen it many times, he was still amazed every time. The door that he could not push at all was opened by Xu Xin with just a light push.
"Not as magical as you. Okay, tell me what's behind the second door. Aren't you stuck in front of the third door?" Xu Xin looked at the soil and activated his identification ability.
He was surprised to find that the soil was not contaminated soil, but normal soil with good quality.
A green light appeared in his eyes, and there were even a few blue spots.
"Fertile soil!" Xu Xin's eyelids twitched. There was actually fertile soil here!
Fortunately he brought out the stone shovel!
"There's something strange behind this door. The last time we came here, the last section was completely impassable." Chang Yin said helplessly. "The front was fine, except for some mutated plants like vines and carnivorous plants that came out to attack us. They weren't a big deal for us, but the last few dozen meters were really strange."
Are there mutated underground creatures? Xu Xin suddenly thought of something and began to check the map in his mind.
"Those last few dozen meters can't even be called mutant plants, they're mutant monsters. They're all intermediate-level mutants, and a few are even advanced. You have to know that even with advanced mutant beasts, we can barely protect ourselves. There's no way we can carry that survivor to the next gate." Chang Yin became more and more helpless as he spoke. "Could this damn place just not want us to get out?"
