Chapter 188 Utilization and Charging of the Treehouse Core


Chapter 188 Utilization and Charging of the Treehouse Core

It was getting dark soon, and Xu Xin quickly returned to his tree house.

He also planted the newly brought [Parasite Tree House Seeds] on the outermost edge of his "back garden", but in the opposite position to the previous [Parasite Tree House 01], it was planted on the other side.

There was no special consideration, he just felt more symmetrical.

While the parasitic tree house had not yet grown up, Xu Xin sent a voice message to Ji Chaoyang. . He wanted to analyze today's information with Ji Chaoyang, and then consider whether it was time to tell other explorers their inferences.

The other party connected quickly.

"I met people from other districts." Xu Xin said straight to the point.

"...Oh?" Ji Chaoyang's voice on the opposite side also became serious, "Which district is it from?"

"It's almost as you guessed, Jungle Area 187."

"...Neighbourhood? Just a neighborhood."

Ji Chaoyang's worries were similar to his. He was afraid that they would not only be surrounded by neighboring districts such as District 187 and District 189, but also a bunch of other districts. It would be easy to deal with one or two districts, but it would be much more difficult to deal with a melee in many districts. .

Xu Xin told Ji Chaoyang all the information he got from Le Youfang.

"It seems that our speculations should be close to ten." Ji Chaoyang was silent for a while and then said.

"What did you find over there?"

"I also walked around the reserve and found two tree houses. Unfortunately, they were both tree houses that had lost their owners and were on the verge of death. I didn't meet any living survivors."

"Have you noticed a problem?" Xu Xin frowned, "We haven't found anyone in this area. There seem to be only survivors from other areas around us. Are we completely separated from people in the same area?"< br>


He found three tree houses in total, and now that he thinks about it, the locations are even relatively regular.

The first tree is in the east, the second in the north, and the third, the one in Leyoufang, is in the south. Although there are some slight deviations, they are pretty much the same.

Each direction corresponds to a treehouse. However, none of these three treehouses are the treehouses in their area!

If it weren't for the fact that he had seen the light of the lightning rod on Li Wenxi's treehouse, which was about twenty or thirty kilometers due east of him, he would have thought that there was something wrong with his position.

"This should be what I said before, cross distribution." Ji Chaoyang pondered for a while and then said, "All of us are separated."

Xu Xin naturally understands what cross distribution is. Like black and white floor tiles.

Each survivor's treehouse sanctuary in Jungle Area 188 is equivalent to a white square, while survivors in other areas are black squares. White squares are only connected to black squares, and black squares are also surrounded by white squares.

In other words, producers in the same area can only be found in diagonally opposite directions, such as northwest and southeast.

However, the protected area is not a square, but a circle. A circle cannot provide full coverage like a square. Between the diagonally opposite circles, there are dangerous areas that cannot be covered by the protected area.

Therefore, at least until the protected area continues to expand, there will be no direct connection between the same areas.

Now if you want to find people in the same area, you have to pass through the protected areas of survivors in other areas.

"I think it's time to tell them about this matter. We need to establish a close group as soon as possible. Otherwise, once some people have evil intentions, someone will suffer." Xu Xin said. When he talks about them, he naturally refers to the other people in the Explorers.

"Then let's do it tomorrow. Now that the protected areas can communicate with each other, functions like the World Channel should also be opened. Let's verify it again today."

"Okay."

Xu Xin hung up the call.

The treehouse is now fully grown. Silver King and Mimi were both circling the tree house. It was their first time to see a tree grow so fast, and they were very curious.

Xu Xin renamed the tree house [Parasite Tree House 02], opened up some of its functions, and then returned to his tree house with the four beasts.

He took out the two [Cores of the Low Tree House] and prepared to use the cores to upgrade the resources.

"What should I upgrade?"

The carving knife was put aside for the time being. After all, even if he made a purple-level carving knife, with his artist level, he would not be able to carve a purple-level statue. It was meaningless. Maybe the carving speed would be slightly improved, but his current speed has already It's enough, and there is no need to consume a purple level resource to improve it.

Weapons are actually a good choice. He can now upgrade two materials and can completely make weapons. He has just obtained the strongest steel in the same level. If he upgrades the steel block (blue) to a steel block (purple) and uses the steel block to make a weapon, he can get the strongest weapon in the purple level!

In this way, he is equivalent to having purple-level equipment all over his body!

However, in terms of practicality, the thing he should upgrade the most is the boning knife, because a purple-level boning knife can decompose purple-level materials, and the possibility of decomposing blue-level materials may also increase.

After thinking for a long time, Xu Xin finally chose the weapon.

There are no wild beasts or mutated creatures around now, and we don't know when they will appear. The creation may be put on hold for a long time. Moreover, he has not been to the west side yet. After he has assembled himself, he will go to the west side and give it a try. There may be another tree house core there.

Ultimately, he chose the steel lance over the crossbow over all weapons.

Purple-level steel spears only require two purple-level materials, wood and steel blocks, but purple-level crossbows require three types of wood, animal tendons and steel blocks. He can't make them yet. Moreover, now that he has powerful explosive arrows, the firing speed and strength of the crossbow's own arrows are not so important, it is enough.

[Steel Spear (Green): The spear made of steel blocks is sharper than the iron spear. It is the hardest and sharpest weapon in its class! Durability 1000. Requires wood (green)*5, steel block (green)*2]

A purple-level steel spear requires four blue-level wood, one purple-level wood, one blue-level steel block, and one purple-level steel block.

Taking out a blue-grade steel block and a [low treehouse core], Xu Xin tried to put the two resources together.

[Do you want to use the core of the low tree house to upgrade the steel block (blue) to the steel block (purple)? 】

When the prompt sounded, Xu Xin did not hesitate and immediately chose yes.

The core of the tree house, which originally exuded a bright white light, suddenly became brighter. Then, with his discernment ability, the blue light on the steel block gradually began to turn towards purple.

Eventually, the light at the core of the tree house dimmed, turning from a "night pearl" emitting bright white light into an ordinary light yellow spherical stone. The steel block also completely turned into purple grade.

[The core of the low treehouse that has lost energy: The core of the treehouse that has exhausted all its energy has turned into an ordinary stone. Maybe there is a way to make it full of energy again. 】

Full of energy again! Sure enough, the core that has lost its energy can still be recharged!

This made Xu Xin overjoyed. If he finds this method, he can really produce purple-level resources on his own!

But how to charge it?

"The core of the tree house..." Xu Xin murmured to himself, "Could it be related to the parasitic tree house?"

He had seen all the functions of the parasitic tree house, but there was no option to recharge the core of the tree house.

He suddenly thought that while he was operating in his Parasitic Tree House 01, Coco had been scratching the floor with his little paws. When he finally left, it was still scratching on the floor and was taken away by him. At that time, it was somewhat reluctant.

Xu Xin originally thought it was sharpening its claws, but now it seems that it could be...

It didn’t matter what purple-level weapon it was, since it could be used at any time anyway. He picked up Coco on the sofa and rushed to Parasite Tree House 01.

"Uh-huh?" Coco dozed off on the sofa and was lifted onto Xu Xin's shoulder. There were question marks all over her little head.

"Help me see in a moment what is special about the parasitic tree house."

"Hey!" After hearing these words, Keke suddenly stopped feeling sleepy, waving her little paws and shouting, as if to say that she had actually discovered it a long time ago, but she was directly taken away by Xu Xin last time.

Is it indeed similar to his guess?

Arriving at the first floor of Parasitic Tree House 01, Coco jumped off Xu Xin's shoulders, ran to the middle of the tree house, scratched the floor with her little paws: "Hey!"

Xu Xinke is very familiar with this position. Isn't this the location of the trunk of the tree house, and where the core of the tree house originally was?

The Parasitic Treehouse has no core, so it should be empty inside.

Is it necessary to pry open the floor in the center of the tree house and place the core of the tree house in the original position of the core of the tree house?

Xu Xin touched the floor with her hand, but it did not trigger any prompt to control the lifting of the floor.

...Then chop with an ax!

Anyway, it was just a piece of tree house flooring, and he just took it down. He didn't even have to repair it himself afterwards, he could just rely on the tree house's own self-healing ability to restore it.

Just do it. Taking out the iron ax, Xu Xin hit the ax on the floor.

"Click!"

The same as the previous situation, the green-level parasitic tree house was completely unable to withstand the blue-level iron axe. With just one click, the floor in the center cracked. After a few blows, the floor shattered.

Xu Xin cleared the debris on the floor, revealing the situation under the floor.

"Sure enough!"

Under the floor is different from a normal treehouse. A normal treehouse is a hollow tree trunk, with the core of the treehouse buried in the soil at the bottom. The trunk of the parasitic tree house is indeed solid, with only a hemispherical groove in which the core of the tree house can be placed.

[Discover the parasitic tree house charging slot and unlock the core charging function]

Did you actually discover this core charging function by yourself?

Xu Xin placed the energy-depleted [core of the low tree house], and with a soft "click", the core of the tree house just got stuck in the hemispherical hole.

A faint white sheen emanated from the already dim core of the treehouse.

Xu Xin touched it with her hand. The core that had become cold after losing energy was now warm, like a hand warmer.

[Remaining charging time: 4 days, 23 hours and 59 minutes]

Really rechargeable!

"Hey!" Coco also touched it, and finally even lay on it, showing a comfortable expression, and her little tongue stuck out.

Xu Xin fell into thinking.

Originally, the core of the tree house provides energy to the tree house, but the energy of the parasitic tree house is obtained from the host tree house, so there is no need for the tree house core to provide energy specifically. Instead, it can obtain energy from the host tree house. Added to treehouse core.

This should be the principle of charging the core.

But... it seems that the host treehouse, that is, his treehouse, needs to provide more energy and the burden is even greater. It is not known how many parasitic treehouses it can tolerate at most.

Although five days of charging time is a bit long, the purple-level resources are worth the long wait.

If we have more parasitic tree houses in the future, wouldn't it be possible to mass-produce purple-level resources? By the way, what would happen if you put a full-energy core on it?
