Beast Tamer: Super Lucky Starting Contract
Chapter 57 Place of Trial
The turmoil in the outside world has subsided temporarily, but the aftermath of the turmoil still affects Mo Xu and his group.
Because the entrance to the secret realm had been moved, the army did not find any clues when they were clearing the battlefield in the wild, and missed the best opportunity to discover the secret realm.
This also means that it will be difficult for Mo Xu and others to be rescued by the authorities in the short term.
Of course, Mo Xu, who was trapped in the secret realm, didn't know about this, and they were not waiting foolishly for the secret realm to merge.
Just after the entrance to the underground palace appeared, they observed traces of spatial dislocation behind the strange buildings deep in the underground palace.
Moreover, the dislocation does not seem to be small, and it seems to be connected into one piece!
When they came in, the entrance was only big enough for one person to get in, and even a fat man was stuck. Now the exit at the back was like a fence, and even if some people "ran away", there would still be enough space for the rest to get out.
"Brother Mo, are we going down?" Jiang Pan asked Mo Xu, but his eyes followed the fat man's gaze on the dislocation behind him.
That mottled light and shadow represents the passage of life. It is right in front of us, so there is no reason not to go!
What's more, this was chosen by Xiu Xiu by touching the stone, and there is purple air coming from the east, which is definitely a good omen.
Xiuxiu suddenly felt a chill on his back. He turned around in confusion and saw Mo Xu looking at him meaningfully: "?"
With an idea in mind, Mo Xu immediately said, "The exit is in front, of course we should go down."
Before going down, they exited the entrance of Xiangu Road, took out the materials in their backpacks and had another big meal to replenish their energy.
Each person only had 40% to 50% of the materials they had at the beginning. Since there was great hope this time, Fatty clamored not to waste too much, and Mo Xu thought that made sense.
But Mo Xu insisted that humans could be a little hungry, but the monsters must be well fed, otherwise they would find it difficult to protect themselves when encountering danger.
Another ten percent of the ingredients were lost, which made the fat man feel distressed. He ate one fruit and never ate again.
Mo Xu estimated that even if they lived frugally, the food would hardly last for another five days, and they would have to starve. Therefore, the purpose of going down to the underground palace this time was very clear, which was to escape, and everything else was secondary.
"Fatty, I'm telling you, don't touch anything when you go down there. If you can find any treasures, take them. If you can't find any, forget it."
The fat man patted his chest and said, "Brother Mo, don't worry, I have a plan."
Mo Xu said sternly, "If you get into an accident and can't get out, I'll beat you up first."
The fat man shrank his neck and said with a flattering smile: "No."

After eating and drinking their fill and being fully prepared, the three men and three beasts went to the big cave at the foot of the mountain and started their journey.
There is a slope below the cave entrance. It is not steep and it is not difficult for people to walk on it. However, it is too long, and it seems to be several kilometers long, and the bottom is not clear.
As they walked down from a high place, although there was enough light that they could see the road clearly, a dark atmosphere gradually filled the air.
The strange building complex below seemed to be getting taller and taller as they got closer. It seemed to be made up of many high walls. When viewed from above, it looked like boxes formed by multiple walls nested inside each other.
When they were halfway there, they discovered that the walls were even higher than they had originally thought, perhaps as high as three or four stories.
The fat man exclaimed: "Turtle, it's so high."
Mo Xu had never seen this style of wall before, so he asked, "Jiang Pan, what kind of building is that?"
Jiang Pan also shook his head: "I don't know, this shouldn't be a standard building, it doesn't look like a tomb, a coffin, or a sacrificial building. It should be built by the owner of this place for some other purpose."
"Other purposes?" Mo Xu shook his head. He hadn't figured out what the walls in the tomb were for.
Continuing to go deeper, after an unknown amount of time, the three exhausted people finally reached the bottom along the slope.
At this time, the topmost hole looked only the size of a watermelon, and the strange building complex was right in front of them, with a series of high walls standing dozens of meters away.
The high wall blocked the front tightly, leaving no gaps or cracks to pass through, and the towering wall looked difficult to climb.
But Mo Xu had no intention of entering this "box". As long as he walked around the building complex, he would reach the place where the continuous space dislocation was located.
The fat man put his backpack on the ground: "No, Brother Mo, I can't walk anymore."
They had indeed walked for a long time, and they were exhausted if they continued walking, so Mo Xu also said: "Let's take a break, and then walk through these walls from the side in one go."
After saying this, Mo Xu called out to Xiu Xiu: "Remove the skill and save your strength."
After entering the tunnel, the three monsters maintained a combat state, especially Xiu Xiu, who had been maintaining the "Wood Armor Technique" and "Giant Extreme". Although no fighting took place, he was exhausted.
"Mo Xu, can we go out this time?" Xiu Xiu was a little worried.
To it, this secret realm is a treasure land with a vast number of high-level resources, but the same cannot be said for its beastmaster.
Mo Xu also sat down cross-legged and hugged Xiu Xiu: "It will be fine. After all, we have good luck."
"Okay," Xiu Xiu thought Mo Xu was just trying to comfort her, and added, "But Mo Xu, I'm very strong now, and I can definitely protect you."
What he said was indeed true. Compared to before he came in, Xiu Xiu's strength has doubled. Now, let alone the "Weapon Puppet", he can even deal with the "Wood-Grain Python" with ease.
However, in such an extremely high-level place, this improvement is of no help at all. Not to mention the lofty level of immortal beasts, even facing the creatures of the heroic spirit level, the middle-level extraordinary and high-level extraordinary and even the spiritual level are just chickens and pottery dogs.
But Mo Xu would not discourage Xiu Xiu's self-confidence. He pinched the grass that was already taller than his calf and said, "Xiu Xiu is great."
After recovering some strength, Mo Xu didn't plan to delay too long and set off immediately.
Instead of approaching the wall, they turned left and continued along the side.
After walking only a few dozen meters, we reached the edge where the sloped corridor met the ground. Here the light formed a clear dividing line. The light in front was dimmer, but you could still vaguely see the surroundings.
The walls are very flat, and because the viewing angle is parallel, the end of the wall box cannot be seen from here, but they are very clear when looking down from above.
They did not stop and continued to move forward.
But things did not go smoothly. Just as they stepped over the dividing line of light, a powerful force bounced them back, and the three people and three beasts fell to the ground.
The fat guy was the fattest and fell the hardest. He cried out, "Ouch!" "What kind of person is so shameless?!"
Xiu Xiu immediately entered combat mode and supported Mo Xu: "Be careful!"
"I'm fine." Mo Xu supported himself and quickly stood firm on his feet. He looked around and asked, "What's going on?"
Before the two men finished their words, a dull roar was heard from beneath the underground palace. At the same time, the entrance at the top of the slope suddenly closed rapidly, quickly blocking out the light, and the entire underground palace fell into darkness.
The roar continued, the earth seemed to be shaking, and they could not see anything. This feeling of unknown brought the most fear.
The fat man was confused and cursed in fear: "Why is this place so popular?"
"Everyone, don't move." Mo Xu shouted immediately, calming down a few people to prevent them from stepping on each other or triggering other dangers.
He then said, "Fatty, let the electric ball shock the surroundings."
The fat man came to his senses and ordered the electric ball to shock. The light brought by the electric shock dispelled the darkness, and at least he could see the surroundings clearly.
The roar continued, and after the electric ball sent an electric shock towards the wall, they also saw the changes over there.
I saw that the walls dozens of meters away were constantly moving, dislocating, rotating, and twisting, and the highest point was constantly extending all the way to the ceiling of the underground palace.
"This change is... did we trigger a certain mechanism?" Jiang Pan followed the faint light and watched the changes in the wall.
The fat man yelled, "No way, is this a trap? What should we do? I hope we won't die here."
"No, it shouldn't be." Mo Xu calmed down. "If the owner of this place wanted to set a trap, he shouldn't have made it so fancy. He must have some intention."
Mo Xu's words calmed Jiang Pan's mind, and he regained his sanity and carefully recalled the notes left by his grandfather. Suddenly he thought of something and said, "Brother Mo is right. There are indeed many "trial sites" in the "ruins" secret realm. It is not impossible that there are similar things in the "tomb". "
Mo Xu said, "'Trial Ground'? Is it a place for trials or assessments?"
Jiang Pan nodded: "Yes, this is a more general term. In the secret realm, there are some places where predecessors leave behind to train the younger generation, or some places of inheritance. These places are arranged with some tests, and only specific people or those who have passed the test can pass. These places are called "trial places."
"Trial? What kind of trial could this be? A trial by a dead powerful man, could it be a way to pass on his legacy?" Mo Xu had some guesses in his mind as Jiang Pan spoke.
He then ordered: "If this is a trial, there should be no danger for the time being. Diantuan should come back first, and we will wait and see what happens."
"Tuanzi, come back."
Following the fat man's order, the electric ball stopped shocking the distance and returned to the crowd, lighting up only a small area around it, and the front was shrouded in darkness again.
Xiu Xiu also protected Mo Xu closely to prevent him from being in danger.
After more than ten minutes, the roar ahead and the shaking of the earth gradually subsided.
Directly opposite the exit of the underground palace, a piece of wall slowly emptied out. From it, a violent extraordinary energy surged out, and the hurricane forced everyone to rely on the monster beast to stand firm.
Fortunately, this violent wind only lasted for a moment. After the wind passed, the extraordinary energy of the underground palace began to operate, and the walls began to emit light. In an instant, the lights in the underground palace were as bright as day.
The light made his eyes, which had been in the dark for too long, feel uncomfortable. Mo Xu squinted his eyes to adapt for a while before he saw the magnificent scene in front of him.
Huge walls emitting white light have filled the entire underground palace. The left and right sides and the ceiling are connected to the walls tightly, with only a small opening facing the corridor, which looks like an entrance.
That was where the strong wind blew just now.
"Let's go, whoosh, let's go and take a look." Mo Xu took the first step.
When the three of them walked to the entrance and looked inside, they saw that there were still high walls running vertically and horizontally, but there were many gaps and passages between the walls.
"This style," Mo Xu came to his senses, "Is this... a maze?"
