Chapter 403 Siege
Behind him, the sharp and long cry of the pterosaur stone statue came.
Xu Xin and others all tilted their heads and looked behind them with their peripheral vision.
I saw the pterosaur stone statue spreading its wings again, looking up to the sky and roaring!
And the surrounding trees were once again blown down by its spread wings under its action!
Immediately afterwards, the surrounding mutated stone statues suddenly rioted as if they had received instructions!
They were just moving slowly, seemingly very cautiously, but suddenly pounced in the direction of a few people!
What's going on!
Could it be that too many people left and were too arrogant, making the pterodactyl statue a little unhappy? !
Damn it, I should have left one by one if I had known earlier!
The distance of more than twenty meters is almost instantaneous for an intermediate mutated creature stone statue!
Several stone statues of mutated creatures are now close at hand!
Beside him was Lou Fei'er, who used a dagger but had insufficient destructive power against stone statues, and an archer who used a bow and arrow, which also attacked weak points but had no strong destructive power.
The attacks of the two of them had little effect on this stone monster, which had no weaknesses, and could be ignored.
Zeng Tao, the only one who could cause great damage to stone statues, temporarily lost his ability at this time.
You can only rely on yourself!
Xu Xin couldn't think too much and immediately took out a big knife from his backpack and swung it at the intermediate mutated creature that rushed over.
Although this big knife was a whole lot smaller than Zeng Tao's, it was still very heavy.
After all, this is a steel knife made from refined purple-grade steel!
At first, he kept one of every weapon for himself.
As soon as the sword was in his hand, Xu Xin felt his hand sinking.
So heavy!
However, because it is a purple-level sword, its own weight is halved, and the weight of the enemy is doubled.
Therefore, even though Xu Xin's strength is very weak compared to Zeng Tao and Wang Lei, he can still swing the sword that he should not be able to swing originally.
Of course, it is still a bit difficult to swing.
As for why he didn't use the halberd...
Because the destructive power of the halberd is not as strong as that of the broadsword.
Moreover, he was indeed a little jealous of Zeng Tao's fighting style and wanted to try it himself.
"Kakaka!"
The familiar sound of the stone statue being cut off and broken into pieces was heard.
Around them, although the mutated creature stone statues were hard, they could not withstand the attack of the purple-grade steel sword.
In an instant, several stone statues were cut in half by the broadsword, and directly shattered under the impact of the heavy broadsword!
So cool!
Using a knife is so cool!
The knife could no longer be held in his hand.
He could feel how heavy it was.
What the enemy faced was four times the impact!
Countless stone statues were chopped off by the power of the broadsword, and even shattered into pieces at the same time!
"Oh my God!" Zeng Tao exclaimed.
Her eyes were wide open and her mouth was slightly open, looking completely shocked.
Just now, she subconsciously pulled out another knife from her backpack.
Because of her previous habit, she always had many weapons in her backpack. After all, ordinary weapons are useless.
But after she drew out the green-level sword, she couldn't hold it at all.
If Lou Fei'er hadn't been quick to pull her away, she might have been knocked to the ground by the knife she drew out.
But before she could get upset, a knife flashed in front of her eyes, and she saw the scene in front of her.
Xu Xin held a large knife that reflected the metallic luster, and easily slashed through a circle of stone statues of mutated creatures in front of him!
This...this...
This is so handsome! This knife!
It is simply her dream knife!
In an instant, she completely forgot about the broken stone knife before, and only saw the knife in Xu Xin's hand.
Just when Xu Xin wanted to swing his sword again to resist the attacking mutated stone statue, he suddenly discovered...
These mutated creature stone statues didn't seem to be coming towards them.
Because, except for the stone statues he broke, the other stone statues ignored them at all and rushed directly to the tree house!
"They don't seem to be attacking us, but they are going to the tree house?"
Qin Fu kicked the fragments of the mutated stone statues that were still shaking on the ground, spread his hands and said, "You seem to have accidentally injured them."
Except for Zeng Tao, who was still looking at the big knife in Xu Xin's hand with his mouth open, the other three people all looked back at the tree house behind them.
I saw a stone statue of a mutated creature that looked like a leopard, crawling along the trunk of the tree house to the bottom of the canopy of the tree house.
That is, just below the center of the bottom of the first floor of the treehouse.
Then, it made a sharp claw towards the bottom of the tree house!
Everyone heard the sound of wood breaking.
After the leopard swung out its claws and scratched several deep marks on the bottom of the tree house, it immediately lost its center of gravity and fell down.
At the same time, another mutated creature climbed up to a tree trunk seven or eight meters high, and struck the spot where the mutated leopard stone statue had just been attacked with another claw!
Then, it also fell down.
But one after another, the mutated creatures climbed up the tree trunk and took turns attacking the gap at the bottom of the treehouse that was destroyed but was constantly repairing itself.
Finally, in less than ten seconds, the bottom of the tree house received more than twenty attacks and completely shattered, leaving a big hole!
After opening the big hole, the mutated stone statues climbed the tree trunks one after another and entered the tree house.
At this time, several people had retreated to a position a hundred meters away from the tree house and squatted behind a tree.
Neither the mutated creature stone statue nor the pterosaur stone statue looked at them again.
So they hid here and observed the situation in the tree house.
There are no more stone statues of mutated creatures around the tree house. Each of these stone statues has already entered the tree house.
Xu Xin's eyes narrowed slightly, staring at Lou Fei'er's tree house and thinking.
It seems that his guess is indeed correct. These stone statues are here to find Xiao Hong.
Otherwise, they wouldn't have gotten into a tree house for no apparent reason.
It's just that after these stone statues got in, why didn't they move at all?
He thought that after these stone statues entered, they would turn the tree house upside down.
As a result, there was not even a sound of footsteps.
"Is this really okay?"
Qin Fu looked at the tree house, which seemed very peaceful, as if nothing had happened.
"What do those stone statues want to do? It doesn't look like they are going to demolish the tree house? It's interesting." He touched his chin.
"If they want to destroy the tree house, they don't have to enter it at all. They just need to attack the tree trunk." Lou Fei'er speculated, "Since they entered it, they are looking for something. Just..."
But what do these stone statues need in her abandoned tree house?
She looked at Xu Xin, and she knew that Xu Xin must know something.
At this time, Xu Xin was paying attention to the pterosaur stone statue on the other side of the tree house, which was lingering near the huge pit.
The pterosaur stone statue no longer looked at them at this time, but looked at the tree house, with red light still shining in its stone eyes.
It seems that it is really waiting for the stone statue inside to come out and bring it the information it wants.
But why doesn't it come up on its own?
With its destructive power, it could easily destroy an unsuspecting treehouse, right?
And just now, after it gave Zeng Tao an angry blow, it did not continue to catch up, but stayed where it was.
It seems that it has never left the big pit, more than twenty meters, right?
Could it be said that it cannot leave the big pit too far?
A glimmer of light flashed in Xu Xin's eyes.
If this is really the case, if this pterosaur stone statue is really restricted in its range of activities, then...
Can he attack it outside the range of movement?
For example...
Explosive crossbow bolt!
Blast its big head directly with explosive crossbow bolts!
It's a bright red dot on the map, an unmistakable enemy unit.
He must find a way to eliminate such a powerful enemy unit!
At this time, his arm was pulled, and when he looked sideways, it was Zeng Tao.
Zeng Tao was looking at him with bright eyes at this time, no longer feeling the same disgust towards him as before.
"Hey...you just got the big sword, how did you make it?" Zeng Tao tugged his arm twice more and asked in a low voice.
She really liked the big knife that Xu Xin was holding just now!
The only drawback is that it's a little small.
It would be nice if it could be a little bigger!
"Is that a metal weapon handle? It's a high-level metal weapon, I guess, it's blue level, right?" Zeng Tao asked several questions in a row before Xu Xin could speak.
It seems that she took the bait.
Xu Xin had another reason for using the sword just now, which was to use this purple-level sword to bait her.
Let her voluntarily surrender to the Explorers.
Because Xu Xin also noticed that her obsession with weapons seemed to be very deep.
A good weapon might really be able to fish her over directly.
But...
When Xu Xin took out this metal weapon, he was actually prepared for their identity to be discovered.
After all, not everyone can make metal weapons.
But Zeng Tao seemed to be focused on the weapon and didn't notice this.
Qin Fu on the side looked at her as if he were a little fool.
He wanted to say, this is so obvious, haven't you seen it yet? People have basically told you.
Even at this moment, Lou Fei'er, whose mental state had been suppressed by the pterosaur stone statue, reacted. She held back her laughter and looked away from Zeng Tao, glanced at Qin Fu, pursed her lips, and said nothing.
She also saw that Qin Fu had most likely figured out Xu Xin's identity.
However, regardless of whether Qin Fu sees through it or not, it does not hinder her mission to keep an eye on him and prevent him from escaping.
"Yes, it's a metal weapon. What, do you want it?" Xu Xin patted the backpack.
His broadsword has been put into his backpack.
After all, even if the weight is reduced by half, the sword is still too heavy to hold in your hand.
To him, it was a complete burden.
...It seems that he needs to use strength potion to increase his strength.
If you can't even lift a knife, that won't do.
"It's really a metal sword! Is it made of iron? It must be made of iron! Well, where did you buy this sword? Are you still selling it?" Zeng Tao was still holding on to his arm and wouldn't let go. (End of chapter)
