Chapter 473 Shi Wanyun’s request (5200 words)
Help?
Xu Xin's eyelids twitched fiercely.
What's going on?
What happened to Shi Wanyun?
The situation was so dangerous that she could send him a private message asking for help as soon as she received the notification from China Unicom?
He immediately replied: "What happened to you over there?"
If there is really a big danger that can endanger Shi Wanyun, who can be regarded as the strongest person in District 1...
Ordinary survivors may not be able to guard against this kind of danger!
If this happened in District 188, around them...
No, we must figure this out right away!
"What's wrong? Why haven't you spoken?" On the other end of the call, Li Wenxi saw that Xu Xin hadn't spoken for a long time, and she suddenly asked curiously, "What happened?"
"What's wrong?" Beside her, Lou Fei'er saw Xu Xin's surprised and solemn expression, and she came over to look at the screen projected by the watch in front of him.
Then she also saw Shi Wanyun's message, and her eyes widened in surprise: "Shi Wanyun, have you contacted me? She actually asked you for help?"
Lou Fei'er's words attracted the attention of others around her.
They all looked towards Xu Xin.
Xu Xin nodded, frowned and said: "As soon as I connected to China Unicom, I asked for help."
Others around him also came over and looked at the private messages between Xu Xin and Shi Wanyun.
"Help..." Ji Chaoyang also frowned slightly, "It seems that this matter is more dangerous and more complicated than we thought before..."
really.
Xu Xin also looked serious.
He originally thought that this crisis might not affect their 188 district too much.
Judging from the number of deaths, they have only lost a dozen people in District 188 so far.
Moreover, after they advised everyone to stay in the tree house and not go out, the number of people in Area 188 has not decreased. This is probably because every survivor in Area 188 has a powerful heavy crossbow, so these dangerous Guys, don't dare go near the treehouse in Area 188.
But if this danger can directly affect a strong person like Shi Wanyun, then maybe...
It will cause huge casualties!
Xu Xin waited for a long time in the private message interface with Shi Wanyun, but the other party never responded to him since he sent the message "Help!"
He sent two more messages, but there was still no contact from the other party.
Others did not receive her distress message.
...What's going on?
Is it so critical that you can’t even reply to messages?
From this point of view, her first message was also a very urgent two words, but did not contain any useful information. This made Xu Xin unable to help her.
"Forget it, now that the things here are done, let's go back first." Xu Xin raised his head and said, "If anything happens, I will tell you."
"Okay Brother Xin, let's go back first." Wang Lei nodded, "But do you want to stay here?"
"Well. Calculating the time, Niu Fugui should be arriving soon. I'll wait for him here."
Everyone else went back one by one, and soon, only Xu Xin and Lou Feier were left near the teleportation formation.
"Leave this to me." Lou Fei'er patted her chest, "Just go back. We have just connected to Area 1. There must be a lot to do, right?"
That's fine.
Lou Fei'er is also an activator of the formation, and naturally has the authority to connect to the formation.
"Okay, proceed with caution. It's not safe in the jungle now."
Xu Xin looked around and used his vision amplification to look around carefully, but found nothing unusual.
...You should still take Cocoa with you when you go out from now on.
"Also, after Niu Fugui arrives, bring them to the explorers as soon as possible."
"Okay, I get it."
Xu Xin nodded and walked towards his tree house.
"Are you done?" Li Wenxi never hung up on the call.
"Well, is there anything else?"
"What do you mean! Have you forgotten what you just gave me?"
ah!
Xu Xin's eyes lit up: "Have you refined that metal?"
"Well...it's a pity, not really." Li Wenxi said regretfully, "My furnace is not hot enough, and it reminds me that it should be a fuel problem."
fuel?
"The fuel you are using now should be... coal, right?"
"It is indeed coal, but it is all green grade. It seems that the grade is not high enough." Li Wenxi said helplessly.
"When you were underground, I asked your pangolins to dig a lot of coal mines for me, but... why are all the coals in your coal mine green? There are only two blue-level coals occasionally. Blue-level There is really very little quality coal..."
His coal mine is all green-grade coal?
That being said, it seems true...
He didn't even seem to have dug coal above the green level.
"Then smelting that metal..."
"We need fuel above purple level," Li Wenxi said.
...Purple fuel? !
How should I put it? It is indeed a meteorite from the sky...
This is simply not a level they can access now...
"This is because my furnace is stronger, okay! Under normal circumstances, if you want to smelt it, you need the same level of fuel, that is, gold-level fuel!"
...Well, it seems that they have taken a big step forward again.
This purple-level fuel is simply not accessible to normal survivors at their current stage.
But...
"We... have purple-level meteorite, right? Can purple-level meteorite be smelted with blue-level fuel?"
"Well, it is indeed possible, but..." Li Wenxi said a little embarrassedly, "The blue-grade coal in my hand is not even enough to smelt a piece of purple-grade meteorite."
Then, Li Wenxi explained to him a little bit.
It turns out that it takes a full twelve hours to smelt a purple-grade meteorite with blue-grade coal.
But Li Wenxi only has eight pieces of blue-grade coal in her hands.
A piece of blue-level coal can only last for one hour of smelting, and the total useful fuel in her hand can only last for eight hours of smelting.
"Isn't blue-level wood good?" Xu Xin had a headache.
Is this the pain of having advanced materials but not being able to use them?
"No, no. The requirements for wood are even higher, because wood itself is not a qualified smelting material, and the temperature is not high enough. Even if I use my furnace, I have to use wood of the same level, which is barely enough, and it will take more time. Times.”
The same level of wood takes twice as long...
In other words, purple-level meteorite requires purple-level wood to smelt, and it takes 24 hours to smelt one piece!
This is too outrageous!
This thing really shouldn't be something they should be exposed to at this stage!
But...if it can really be smelted...
"...You should give priority to melting the steel block. Let's put this thing away for now." Xu Xin said with a headache.
The metal that made up that underground prison, as well as the metal in the metal rooms that we encountered before, should all be this meteorite, right?
This thing seems to be the key metal commonly used by the Blood Pattern Clan.
"Hmm... let me try using purple-grade wood first. I still have some on hand. Hey Xu Xin, tell me, if you let your pangolin dig underground, will the coal mines in the depths be of a higher grade? ”
"...You can try it."
Xu Xin has now reached the edge of the mine and looked into the mine.
The mine has been expanded to a large area, but it is not too deep.
"Then I'll go there now!"
Li Wenxi is very concerned about this new metal and plans to come over now.
"You don't have to worry about your mining team anymore?"
"Over there, let them dig for themselves first, and let Yajun take them. I care more about this new metal now."
Back at the tree house, Li Wenxi has also arrived.
She said hello to Xu Xin and ran directly to Xu Xin's mine with her pangolin concubine.
Xu Xin thought for a moment.
He has the ability to discover alchemical materials, but there are indeed no such mineral spots around his and Li Wenxi's tree house.
But he remembered that there was an alchemy site over there at Qi Xuefei, but something happened and there was no shortage of materials, so he forgot about it.
Perhaps, we can develop the mineral spots over there.
Sitting on the sofa, Coco, whom he had left at home before, jumped onto his lap with a squeak, and the egg rolled to his feet.
Xu Xin casually checked the alliance channel.
Everyone had a pleasant chat, and his private message also contained private messages from other big guys in District 1.
Xu Xin clicked on Shi Wanyun's private message again.
She still didn't reply.
That sentence "Help!" really made Xu Xin feel itchy.
What happened to her?
He was still very happy to provide help to Shi Wanyun. After all, as a lone wolf, it would be better to abduct her as soon as possible.
But she kept silent, and Xu Xin had no idea how to help.
Sighing, Xu Xin was about to chat with the other strong men in Area 1, when suddenly, a message jumped on the screen.
Coming!
"Weapons, please!"
There are only a few words again, very brief.
Did she mean to give herself a weapon?
In Xu Xin's mind, she instantly imagined her current situation.
At this time, Shi Wanyun was hiding somewhere shivering, not daring to move or even make a sound. She didn't even dare to start her watch, because the light projected by the projection might make enemies around her discover her.
And she could only hide there, looking for opportunities. Once the enemies around her stopped paying attention to her, she immediately clicked on her watch to send a message to Xu Xin.
But...
She must not be in her treehouse now, right?
Then she asked herself to trade weapons for her, can she accept it?
Or is her watch the same as mine, a purple-level watch that can be traded?
Xu Xin suddenly remembered that he had seen people in District 1 discussing Shi Wanyun on the World Channel, saying that she had also been ranked first in the district.
The purple-level watch was the reward for being number one in the original exploration activity.
That should be correct, her watches are the same as mine, both purple-level watches!
But...weapons cannot be given away casually.
Even if he wanted to give it away, he didn't know what kind of weapons Shi Wanyun needed now.
Melee type, or long-range type?
If Shi Wanyun's situation is really as he imagined, what she needs most now may not be weapons.
But...
[Cloak of the Invisible]!
If the other party has an Invisible Cloak, you may be able to communicate with him!
But...
The Invisible Man's Cloak is the product of Zhao Xiaochuan's ability, and it is considered one of their explorer's trump cards.
He contacted Zhao Xiaochuan and explained the matter to him.
"Okay, Brother Xin, I'll give you one right now. You can send it to her." Zhao Xiaochuan immediately agreed, "What kind of trump card is this? It's just a rag."
He didn't care.
But it is.
Compared to his abilities, the Invisible Cloak is indeed of little use to him.
However, this thing has saved the lives of Explorer members more than once. It is an absolute life-saving artifact!
He himself was still a little hesitant to give such a magical weapon to a strong man from District 1 who had never been masked before.
Forget it, I can't bear to let the child trap the wolf, so I can be considered a good friend with this Shi Wanyun.
He directly sent the invisible cloak that Zhao Xiaochuan had traded to Shi Wanyun.
There was no movement on the other side for another long time.
Xu Xin rubbed Coco's belly and waited silently.
After about five or six minutes, the transaction was finally accepted.
Then, about half a minute later, the other person responded.
"I'm saved for the time being. Thank you. I didn't expect that you still have this kind of equipment."
A long string of words.
It seemed that she was temporarily out of danger and could communicate normally.
Xu Xin smiled slightly.
His guess was not wrong.
At this moment, his watch vibrated.
The other party actually sent him a voice call directly.
Xu Xin didn't hesitate and picked up directly.
"Shh... speak softly."
Before he could speak, the other person spoke first.
His voice was very low and he spoke softly, as if he didn't dare to speak.
"You don't need to be so careful." Due to the atmosphere, Xu Xin lowered her voice and said, "Just don't make too much noise."
He has experienced the effectiveness of the Invisible Man's Cloak many times. As long as you don't move your body, speaking won't be a big problem.
"Is that so?" On the other side of the call, Shi Wanyun's voice was slightly louder, "Ah, those monsters didn't notice me. This cloak is really strong."
Even though her voice rose a little, it still sounded very soft, as if she had such a voice herself.
There are many monsters around, so don’t dare to act easily...
Xu Xin's heart moved slightly.
She wouldn't... She's in the underground world now, right?
Besieged by the underground world of creatures?
"What's your situation now?" Xu Xin asked immediately, "Are you in the underground world now?"
As the leader of the exploration activities in Area 1, she must know the underground world.
"Underground world?" Shi Wanyun's voice was slightly confused, and then he suddenly said, "Oh, you are talking about the underground world where the gold treasure chest of the jungle exploration activity is located? Well... I am not in that underground world, I am very clear I'm on the ground."
Well...
really.
If she was in the underground world, she should be out of contact with the outside world now.
"Xu Xin, I want to make a deal with you." The voice on the other side became slightly serious.
But...if it weren't for the fact that her identity couldn't be faked, her soft, even weak voice would have given Xu Xin the first impression that she was a...weak woman.
"Huh...?" Coco looked up at his watch, a little curious as to who the owner of this voice was.
"Say it." Xu Xin responded.
"Now, I know a way to leave this place, but with my ability, I can't get through. So, I want to...rent a set of equipment from you. When I leave here, I will definitely return it to you."
Her voice was still so soft, but Xu Xin could still hear a hint of uneasiness in her tone.
After all, what she said was equivalent to saying nothing.
Who in the right mind would give away a set of equipment just because of a few words?
Moreover, judging from what she meant, she obviously wanted a set of purple-level equipment. After all, she owns blue-level equipment.
"Okay." Xu Xin said.
"...I know you don't trust me, but...oh?" The voice on the other side was slightly startled, "You agree?"
"However, I want to know exactly the situation you are in now and how you encountered this situation." Xu Xin continued, "If you can make me believe it, I will lend you the equipment. .”
"It's very simple." The person on the other side took out a breath and said directly, "Xu Xin, can I have a video call?"
"Of course."
The other party immediately initiated a video call to him.
In the video, a woman wearing blue-level leather armor and an Invisible cloak was sitting on an unknown plant.
The woman, or rather girl, looks to be in her early twenties, has a pretty face, and looks very friendly from the corners of her eyes.
But her eyes were obviously tired, her hair was obviously a little messy, her face was stained with some dust, and there was blood on her mouth that had not been wiped clean.
The ground beside her was littered with pieces of iron armor that were already in terrible shape.
These armors have now completely turned into pieces of scrap metal.
However, due to the angle of view, Xu Xin could not see the surrounding scene, but it felt so dark over there.
"Where are you?" he couldn't help but ask.
It's so dark, isn't it really an underground world?
Shi Wanyun did not speak, but turned his arms to change the perspective of the video.
As the perspective shifted, Xu Xin's pupils slowly shrank.
He felt like his breath was catching.
A world he had never imagined slowly unfolded in his eyes.
"This...this is...!"
He saw giant trees twisting towards the sky, their dense crowns blocking the sky and the sun in the clouds!
I saw the blood-stained vines wrapped around the giant tree and still slowly squirming!
I saw the light shining on the tree crowns in the clouds, like tall buildings in the city, brightly lit!
I saw a pterosaur with a wingspan of more than ten meters leaping down from the top of a giant tree!
I saw countless creatures covered in blood stripes, crawling everywhere!
He saw the sky behind Shi Wanyun.
Between the swirling clouds, he saw a few stars.
He finally knew why it was so dark over there.
It is indeed not the underworld, but the night.
He subconsciously looked out the window of the tree house.
It's still sunny outside now.
His teleportation formation was now connected to another teleportation formation, and another purple-black arch bridge was established.
Niu Fugui should have arrived. The time is just right.
Two o'clock in the afternoon is the time when the sun is at its best.
But Shi Wanyun’s current position...
He looked at the video again.
Shi Wanyun has turned the camera on herself again.
"Where I am now is on the backside of our planet."
She spoke, her voice still soft, but with a hint of fear and a sense of powerlessness.
"This is the world of blood-striped creatures. I was sent here by them."
The... back side of the planet?
What the hell? !
Thank you [June Feixi] for the reward of 5,000 starting coins, thank you for your support, thank you!
