What type of berry is this?

General    None Given

What type of berries are? They are deep purple in color when ripe and green while growing. Inside there're about 50-100 brown seeds. It's odorless and kinda green inside when opened.
The plant is about 1 meter tall, maybe less. Leafs are green in color, they can grow big. The stems are green, like a potato stem plant... Very watery.
Thank you.

Yes, I would have to agree with you Daniela, this is not Mountain Pepper. I can see a flower in the background of your third picture that clearly looks like a pepper flower (and pepper-looking leaves), meaning you have some sort of nightshade. While it may be edible, it's difficult to say for sure and you should probably assume it's potentially toxic. Here is a good review of the complicated story behind black nightshade berries:
