Chapter 198 Awakening
The effect of this little red pill made Xu Xin's heart skip a beat.
Good stuff, good stuff!
Although it has the disadvantage that mutation is irreversible, being fatally injured automatically triggers mutation and restores the injury. This alone is very attractive.
They are all going to die, who cares whether they mutate or not? Survival is the most important thing.
But is this the only pill left?
Xu Xin opened the backpack and took a look. There was only this black medicine bottle in it, and there was nothing else.
This small black medicine bottle is not big and can only hold two red pills at most.
Lou Fei'er must have eaten one pill herself. Judging from the results, it is indeed possible that there is only one pill left.
Xu Xin put the pills into his backpack.
Although this pill seems to be very effective, and you can even control whether to use the mutation power, and it will not mutate if you don't use it, he doesn't plan to take it now.
He decided to observe Lou Feier for a period of time first. After all, after Lou Feifei mutated and went on a rampage, she only regained consciousness after receiving his heavy punch. Before that, she had indeed almost completely lost her mind.
It's hard to say whether this thing will affect her will. Let's first see if she is conscious after waking up, and ask her about any other reactions after taking it, and then consider whether to take it.
Xu Xin came out of Lou Fei'er's bedroom, went to the living room, which was much smaller than his tree house, and clicked on the screen of the tree house.
He first went to the regional channel in District 187 to take a look.
Number of people remaining: 822.
... He remembered that before it got dark in the afternoon, he saw 824 people.
There were also deaths in their area, two people died in just these few hours.
There shouldn't be any other dangers in these two days, right? It seems that people have begun to kill each other, slowly accumulating resources, but not as fast as directly robbing other survivors. This is a truth that everyone understands.
Although there are many fewer people in Jungle District 187, the regional channel is more lively than in District 188, and everyone is discussing what the next event will be.
"Didn't the voice say that our survival rate will be greatly improved, so will we no longer have this kind of death activity in the future?"
"What a beautiful thought, can this world be so kind?"
"Is it over?"
"That's enough. Let's see if there will be any activities tomorrow."
Most of them were discussing future activities.
Xu Xin actually had doubts about this. Because, at the end of the defense campaign, the mysterious voice did not inform them of the content of the next day's activities.
Judging from the announcement at the end of each previous event, it would either say what the next day's event would be and what time it would start, or it would say that the next day would be a break for the survivors to rest.
But after the defense battle ended, it said nothing. The only thing that made Xu Xin feel valuable was that "the survival rate was greatly improved."
There is no other way, just take it one step at a time. The most urgent task now is to unite and integrate the survivors in Area 188.
However, the neighbor in the middle is a real problem.
Xu Xin took another look at the small group [Tree House Cutting Team], there was nothing special about it.
In addition to wondering what Lou Fei'er was doing, among the four of them, only the man named Miao Dake killed a person from Area 186, cut down the tree house and obtained the tree house seeds.
He also didn't mention the treehouse core.
Leaving the screen, Xu Xin walked towards the third floor.
Lou Fei'er's third floor is similar to his plan, with some flowers and plants planted in the house. She didn't open windows in the ceiling like Xu Xin did, but opened more windows around them so that these shrub-type fruits and vegetables could get sunlight.
"Hey!" Coco immediately picked one and started to chew it. Only then did Xu Xin realize that Ah Fu was already enjoying a feast on the third floor.
"These two guys." Xu Xin shook his head.
These fruits and vegetables are all green grade, which he is not very interested in. There are already too many in his place.
Xu Xin picked a cucumber and looked out while chewing it.
This tree house is planted next to a stream. The scenery is quite good, and it is also located on the edge of a resource area. Looking around, the green jungle is dotted with little blue lights.
"Let's keep this tree house here for now." Xu Xin touched his chin and decided not to cut down the tree house.
With the treehouse watch in hand, even if he is there, he can always observe the movements of Jungle Area 187. There is no need to move the treehouse there. Moreover, his tree house is not too far away from here. With Silver King here, it is only ten minutes away.
When the problem in area 187 is solved, we will move this tree there.
As for where Lou Feier will live if this tree house is not transplanted, it depends on the situation.
It is definitely not possible to let her stay here. Her situation is not clear yet, and she must be completely under control. If she is obedient, let her live in the parasitic tree house. If she is disobedient, just stay in the bracelet.
Xu Xin put all the decorative props in the tree house into her backpack, which Lou Fei'er purchased in the points mall, as well as some raw materials such as crystal and mahogany. There is no need to decorate the tree house here, just take it all back.
And bring all these blue-level furniture with you.
Lou Feifei installed several wooden heavy crossbows in the treehouse, and Xu Xin also made and installed many green-level heavy crossbows, turning the entire treehouse into a hedgehog. He had plenty of green-level wood and green-level animal tendons, so he didn't want to waste them.
He loaded these heavy crossbows with wooden heavy crossbow arrows and set them to automatic attack mode.
Just because he didn't cut down, it didn't mean that other survivors wouldn't come. Although he was surrounded by people from their 188th district, he could remind them, but he still had to be prepared. After all, there might not be any people coming from across the district. He didn't want to make wedding clothes for other people.
There just aren't any wild beasts around now, and the heavy crossbow won't fire randomly.
After cleaning up everything, Xu Xin went to the third floor and called up Coco and Ah Fu, who were still eating fruit, and swung down from the tree house.
After taking a look at the bracelet, Xu Xin rode on the wolf's back: "Let's go back."
Soon, within ten minutes, Xu Xin returned to his own tree house.
He first took out the materials related to decoration. Unfortunately, the props in everyone's points mall are the same, so they cannot repeatedly add decoration to his tree house.
...Forget it, let's put it in the parasitic tree house later.
Xu Xin, who had been busy all day, sat on the sofa with Coco in her arms. He rubbed Coco's tail vigorously twice and let out a long sigh of relief.
"Hey!" Coco still protested ineffectively.
I have been really busy with a lot of things today, and I can finally take a break.
By the way, let’s release Lou Fei’er first.
The weakness in the mutated state lasts for 24 hours. Even if she wakes up now, she is still so weak that she can't even walk. There is no need to worry about what she will do.
Turning the bracelet, it emitted a faint red light, and then Lou Fei'er, hugging her legs and curling up into a ball, appeared in the tree house and sat on the floor of the tree house.
Her eyes were dull, her body was shaking slightly, and there were tears on her face.
"...Oh...?" The moment she saw the light, she raised her head and stared blankly at Xu Xin, who was sitting on the sofa in front of her.
"I'm... not dead...?" Lou Fei'er's eyes gradually regained some of their sparkle, but they were still blank, and her lips trembled when she said this.
For some reason, her voice was hoarse.
I'm afraid this isn't her acting skills, it should be her most real feelings.
...What is in this bracelet? It actually scared this woman to tears. When I see Changyin next time, I have to let him optimize it. No wonder Ah Fu is completely unwilling to enter it.
She tried to get up, but in her weak state she was unable to move at all. She pushed herself on the ground twice and gave up when she found that she couldn't use any strength.
"Just now...where was that place...why..." Lou Fei'er's voice was hoarse, and she couldn't continue anymore. She hugged her legs again and started to tremble slightly again.
Everything that happened just now really made her so desperate.
Lou Fei'er didn't know when she woke up, she didn't even know if she woke up. She felt that she had opened her eyes, but she could not see anything. Her eyes were extremely dark, as if there was nothingness.
She wanted to stand up, but she couldn't exert any strength at all. She stretched out her hands to touch, but there was nothing. She couldn't touch anything. Even underneath her, there was nothingness. She seemed to be floating in a pitch-black void that would never end. Nothing can be done in this space.
"Is this the world after death..."
Fortunately, she could hear her own voice.
"Is there anyone? Is there anyone!!"
She waved her legs and feet feebly in the endless darkness, but couldn't touch anything, just like an astronaut thrown into space.
The endless darkness seemed to swallow up her thoughts, and she could only yell to prove her existence and that she was still alive.
In the end, her voice became hoarse, but nothing happened.
"Am I really...still alive..." She curled up and hugged her legs.
That's right, how could that man spare her life?
This may really be the world after death.
Do you want her to continue to sink in this endless darkness?
She wanted to bite her tongue, but she couldn't muster the strength at all, and she couldn't even feel the pain. This made her even more convinced that this was the afterlife.
This silent and dark world made her unable to feel the passage of time at all, and helplessness and despair gradually swallowed her up.
Until a ray of light appeared, her eyes lit up, and she suddenly appeared in the tree house.
It feels so good to sit on something physical.
……
Lou Fei'er looked at the real things around her and felt the touching floor under her body. Her eyes gradually regained their vitality. She touched the cold floor with her hand again, and tears couldn't stop pouring out.
Xu Xin looked at Lou Fei'er, who was looking at him blankly in front of her eyes, and suddenly felt a little embarrassed. Why does it feel like I bullied her into being like this?
He was curious about what the space in the bracelet looked like.
"What did you see just now?" Xu Xin asked.
"I..." For some reason, Lou Fei'er felt like Xu Xin's words had a magical power, making her involuntarily want to respond and obey, and she had no intention of resisting at all.
"Black, very dark, just nothingness...I can't see anything, I can't touch it, there's nothing." She subconsciously replied in a hoarse voice.
She could already tell that this was inside the tree house. Gradually, she recovered from the desperate and helpless state just now. While answering Xu Xin's questions, she looked around. Is this his tree house?
