Chapter 218 Enemies who once hid around the tree house
"Why don't you just wait for me in the tree house. I'll come back to you after I'm done with it." Xu Xin said to Li Wenxi who was about to pull him away.
"...Do you dislike me for holding you back?" Li Wenxi pursed her lips and made a gesture of pulling the trigger, "I can help you shoot from a distance, boom!"
"Of course not, it's just... If it's a three-story tree house, I plan to test it out first. It's not convenient for two people to move around."
The owner of the three-story tree house is likely to have some special abilities or means of survival just like them, which should not be underestimated. Just like Lou Fei'er, if Xu Xin hadn't happened to have enhanced hearing that day and heard what she said, Xu Xin would have fallen into her hands.
As a cautious person, he would never attack someone like this directly on their territory or near a tree house. Who knows what methods he would have. The top ten in the area should not be underestimated.
If encountered in the wild, he is really not afraid. In terms of single combat ability, except for Wen Guixin, he is really worthy of anyone, but attacking the tree house is not that simple.
Take his treehouse, for example. Even if he is not near the treehouse now, his treehouse is very safe. There is a tree house armor, an automatic heavy crossbow, Ah Fu and Aifei guarding him, and most importantly, he has a mutant plant heart.
Although all survivors are considered neutral units by default, once they dare to take action against the treehouse, they will definitely be directly classified as enemy units. In this case, he may not even have broken through the treehouse's armor. Mutated plants The heart will take action, coupled with Afu's attack interference, the automatic shooting of the blue-level heavy crossbow...
Even Xu Xin didn't know how he could survive in this situation.
Since his own tree house is so strong, Xu Xin has no reason to think that the tree houses of strong people in other areas are weak.
It's always better to be cautious.
Wait...
If the owner of this tree house is among the top ten in Area 187, then he should have been reminded by their boss Zhang Daoguang to clean up the surrounding survivors.
He has probably already attacked the surroundings like Lou Feier!
Perhaps among the dozen or so people who died in Area 188 yesterday, there may have been his results!
"Have you not met anyone in the past two days? Or something strange happened?" Xu Xin suddenly asked Li Wenxi seriously.
"Ah?" Li Wenxi was frightened by Xu Xin's sudden serious tone, and her voice became softer, "No...no, what's wrong?"
"Think about it again, did anything strange happen yesterday?"
"Strange thing...? Hmm..." Li Wenxi frowned and thought, "Yesterday I was out mining basically all day long, and didn't come back until evening. It seemed that nothing happened... Oh, by the way!"
Li Wenxi seemed to have thought of something, clapped her hands and pointed at A Niu, "When I came back yesterday, A Niu was a little restless. He was obviously fine before he came back, but as soon as he got near the tree house, he suddenly became restless. ! ”
"Agitated? Why are you agitated?"
"He kept panting towards the jungle and seemed to be planning to rush over. I thought Aniu was going to run away, so I quickly brought him back to the third floor of the tree house, and he calmed down. Is this a strange thing? ”
Breathing into the jungle and wanting to rush through it?
Xu Xin's eyes narrowed and she asked A Niu: "A Niu, did you notice anything when you came back last night?"
When A Niu heard Xu Xin's question, he immediately stood up from his crouching position and mooed twice, as if in reply.
"Hey!" Coco once again acted as a translator and began to gesture with her little paws.
"Ah! Coco is so cute!" Li Wenxi wanted to go up and hug Coco, but Xu Xin held her back.
Xu Xin looked at Coco's gestures, then glanced at Li Wenxi who looked at him with some confusion, and asked: "What did you wear when you went out yesterday? Steel armor?"
"Yes," Li Wenxi nodded, "The steel armor suit is my strongest suit. Of course I have to wear the steel armor suit, and it can also increase my strength, making mining easier."
"Did A Niu keep moving in the same direction yesterday?"
"...Yes, um...what do you want to say?" Li Wenxi seemed to have noticed something, and her expression changed.
"...When you came back, there was a person hiding in the jungle next to the tree house, and A Niu noticed him."
"Ah?" Li Wenxi's expression instantly became a little frightened, and she subconsciously grabbed Xu Xin's arm, "At that time, was there anyone around?"
"Yes, he may be waiting for you to come back and then kill you." Xu Xin speculated, "But fortunately, you are riding a huge mutant cow and wearing a steel armor he has never seen before. , protecting his whole body, probably because he decided that he couldn’t hurt you by attacking secretly, and he couldn’t defeat you in a direct confrontation, so he didn’t take action.”
Li Wenxi was a little dumbfounded. She turned to look at A Niu, "A Niu, did you really notice someone yesterday?"
The huge blood-striped cow nodded gently.
"This..." Li Wenxi grabbed Xu Xin's arm with some fear.
"Your heart is too big. With A Niu's reaction, you should have thought that there are enemies around you." Xu Xin was a little helpless, because the little rich woman has a carefree personality. Fortunately, she has a fully armed steel suit, so she is not afraid of being attacked. , otherwise I don’t know how he died.
However, the most intimidating thing is A Niu. His body is much bigger than the Silver King, and there are blood streaks all over his body. The very strong muscles on the cow look very powerful. Most people will not provoke someone riding on such a cow. The strong man in the cow.
"Um...I'm sorry..." Li Wenxi apologized, lowering her head and looking at her toes.
"Why are you saying sorry to me..." Xu Xin was a little speechless, "Okay, just stay in the tree house for now. I'll go to the south and take a look. If it's not a three-story tree house, I'll help you solve it directly. Yes, if so, I have a solution, don’t worry.”
If it were a three-story tree house, Xu Xin had already thought of the most reasonable solution.
Lou Feier.
She is the best person to do this.
As a person who is still in Area 187 on the surface, with her acting skills, appearance, and physical strength now enhanced by mutant pills, it is too simple for her to deal with a survivor from Area 187 who regards her as a companion. There is no need for him to work hard and risk his life to solve this matter.
"I...okay..." Li Wenxi pouted and didn't insist anymore. How could she have the nerve to ask to go with her? She herself felt that with her level of carelessness, it would only be a disservice to her, "Then how long are you going to go?"
"It won't take long. If it's a three-story tree house, I'll take a look and come back."
"Oh."
Li Wenxi sent Xu Xin, Coco and Yin Wang to the tree house. Xu Xin turned on her back and rushed towards the green patch of south.
"Go back quickly!" Li Wenxi shouted from behind. Xu Xin waved her hand behind her and got into the jungle.
"Coco, are there any enemies around?" Xu Xin asked casually while observing the green patch of land approaching in front of him.
"Huh." Coco shook her head.
Silver King quickly shuttled through the bare jungle, and soon Xu Xin had seen the entire tree house.
"Sure enough, it's a three-story tree house..." Xu Xin narrowed his eyes.
He stopped a few hundred meters away from the treehouse and observed the treehouse.
"Hey!" Coco suddenly pointed at the tree house with her little paw.
"Is there anyone in the treehouse?"
"Hey!" Coco nodded her head.
This treehouse owner didn’t go out today?
Although a large open space around this three-story tree house has been cut down and some plants are planted, there is no parasitic tree house. This makes Xu Xin feel relieved. It seems that this survivor does not have any Killed people in District 188.
But this does not mean that this person is not strong. Just the dense circle of heavy crossbows on the treehouse canopy is enough to make people feel a little intimidated. There are no parasitic tree houses around him, possibly because the survivors in Area 188 near this person have long since died.
Although more than 3,000 people in Area 188 survived, nearly 7,000 people died. It is very possible that only Li Wenxi is alive around him.
Xu Xin asked Silver King to stay a few hundred meters away from the tree house and not get close, while she walked forward slowly with Coco.
The Silver King is a mutated beast. It is a friendly unit to Xu Xin, but not necessarily to others, especially people in different areas. If the Treehouse Heavy Crossbow has auto-fire enabled, it will most likely detect the Silver King and shoot at it, or it would be better to keep it at a distance.
Moreover, the forest is now desolate and there is no tree canopy to cover it. The Silver King is so big and his body is covered with blood streaks, so it is too easy to be discovered. On the other hand, when not wet, the scale armor on his body looks like stones on the roadside, which is very suitable for concealment.
Xu Xin tried her best to choose a place with few dry leaves to set foot, otherwise the sound of crushing fallen leaves would be too loud.
Just when he was about to emerge from the jungle, Coco on his shoulder suddenly pushed Xu Xin's face with his little paw, and whispered: "Hey." Then he jumped down from his shoulder and hid. Got behind a tree.
Is this asking me to hide?
Xu Xin immediately hid behind a relatively thick poplar tree.
At this time, a man suddenly appeared from the window. It was a man with short hair. He held a bow and arrow in his hand and pointed the string at Xu Xin's position.
"Who! Come out!"
Tsk, he was so careful, but he was still discovered.
Although he didn't know how the other party found him, the survivor with a three-story tree house should not be underestimated.
You can't be reckless. This is a survivor who is protected by the tree house. Moreover, you don't know his strength yet. The opponent has a home field advantage.
"Don't shoot! One of our own! Area 187!" Xu Xin signaled Coco to stay behind the tree with her eyes, and then appeared from behind the tree with her hands raised.
With his current equipment, the opponent couldn't hurt him even if he shot arrows, so he dared to do this.
"Area 187?" The bow and arrow in the opponent's hand slowed down slightly.
"Where are you from? What's your name?" the other party asked.
"I came from the north. My treehouse is in the northwest. I passed by the treehouse similar to yours in the north. My name is... Gu Honghao." Xu Xin raised his hands and shouted.
He wanted to see if he could trick this man out of the tree house. As long as this person dares to step out of the tree house and come in front of him, he is completely confident that he can subdue him with his own strength!
