”Really?” Upon hearing this, Zeng Tao couldn’t help but speak up, ”Aren’t you being a bit dumb? Anyone can tell that’s bait to lure you over, right?”

Xu Xin also nodded.

If it continued like this, the intention was indeed too obvious.

”Of course I know.” Qin Fu shook his head, ”But I still followed.”

With the enhancement of his own abilities, he had a very clear grasp of the surrounding situation.

With this confidence in his abilities, even though he quickly detected that the other side was trying to attract him, he still followed along.

After all, he couldn’t be sure that the other side meant him any harm.

Actually, it was mainly curiosity that drove him.

He hadn’t walked around this area before, and staying cooped up in the treehouse was too boring, so it was good to go out for a walk.

Soon, he was led to the side of the Hilly Resource Zone.

Upon reaching the Hilly Resource Zone, the source of the anomaly disappeared completely.

Then, he knew what the other party wanted him to see.

At that moment, he was also captivated by what he saw.

”I don’t know if you are aware, but there is a small area of trees in that region that remain green, not withered in the cold winter, as if it’s still summer.”

What?

Xu Xin’s eyes twitched slightly.

It seemed like he really didn’t know.

Since the onset of winter, he apparently...

Hadn’t really gone over to see the Hilly Resource Zone.

That place... Has always had a patch of trees that haven’t withered?

”There’s actually such a thing?” Zeng Tao was a little surprised, ”Why is that?”

”I was very curious at the time too.” Qin Fu continued.

He knew that the source of the anomaly had attracted him to this location, probably to make him notice that area.

At that time, he hesitated only for a moment before deciding to explore further.

The intention to guide him was too obvious, which instead made him feel that the other party had no ill will.

If it was truly a trap, then such blatant baiting was really foolish.

Instead, it seemed like guidance, like leading the way.

He felt that something was guiding him to discover this place, guiding him to explore here.

Of course, he wasn’t that foolish; he climbed up the surrounding hills first and looked into the resource-rich area enclosed by them.

”That patch of green isn’t small either, at least several hundred meters in circumference,” Qin Fu said, ”And at the center of the lush forest, an altar is surrounded within.”

... It was indeed that altar.

If it was that altar, perhaps it wouldn’t be too surprising after all.

An altar possessing such strange powers, able to keep even fierce beasts at bay, could certainly preserve the surrounding forest in winter.

”So, I decided to delve in for exploration.”

With a high degree of confidence in his ability to foresee danger, Qin Fu decided to head straight into the Hilly Resource Zone due to his carefree nature.

He quickly reached the edge of the dense thicket and ventured within, heading to the altar.

Then, his abilities came into play.

The trees around the altar seemed to have survived for a long time and had been reinforced.

Or perhaps the trees near the altar had also mutated.

Their roots were deeply embedded in the soil, almost fifty meters deep!

Moreover, the roots spread densely underground, intertwining.

Qin Fu, using his abilities, examined beneath the altar with ease.

As a result, he immediately discovered an entrance to a hidden passage underground.

The entrance was located beneath a poplar tree.

Not right beneath the poplar’s canopy but below its trunk.

Yes, unless you chopped down that sturdy poplar tree, an ordinary survivor wouldn’t discover this hidden passage.

But Qin Fu found it with his abilities.

He chopped down the poplar and dug about half a meter down to reveal the entrance to the passage.

Without much hesitation, he opened the entrance and jumped in.

”You are really brave...” Zeng Tao pursed her lips, ”You dared to go in there.”

”You need to have a spirit of exploration.” Qin Fu flashed a somewhat weary smile, ”Since I’m already here.”

At his current state, his eyelids were starting to droop as he spoke.

Xu Xin handed him a blue-grade orange to help him stay awake and continue talking.

Qin Fu peeled the orange and continued to recount his experience.

Though called a hidden passage, it was more like a pipe.

Indeed, the passage was circular, with a diameter of about two meters, resembling a buried conduit for transporting something.

The pipe extended far in both directions, seemingly reaching beyond the Hilly Resource Zone outwardly, while inwardly, it headed directly beneath the altar.

Following basic proximity, Qin Fu explored toward directly under the altar.

And then...

”Then I got lost.” Qin Fu admitted, a little embarrassed.

”What? You got lost? You got lost in a pipe?” Zeng Tao was incredulous, ”Couldn’t you just retrace your steps?”

”It wasn’t just a pipe at all.” Qin Fu shook his head, ”It was a pipe maze.”

Another underground maze?

After entering, Qin Fu walked forward only about a few dozen meters before the pipe split into three forks.

He chose the middle one, as that direction was directly under the altar.

But after walking another twenty or thirty meters forward, he began to realize something was off.
