Chapter 485: Where did the head... go? (4900 words)

Even though the purple-level backpack weighed one-fiftieth, Lou Fei'er still couldn't lift the troll's body.

Zeng Tao had lost her strength now, so she asked Ma Hongwei to come and clean up with her.

Ma Hongwei has an increase in strength. Although he has not yet reached the intermediate level of mutation, his strength alone is much stronger than that of Lou Fei'er.

As for everyone else, they were already too hot in the treehouse to get out.

If it wasn't too hot, Xu Xin would definitely have to deal with it himself.

The explosion tore the giant's body into pieces, and even part of it was blown hundreds of meters away.

The two of them also spent a lot of effort to collect the remaining parts of the explosion location and walked to the main tree house.

"Has this arm been blown up here?" Ma Hongwei then saw a huge, green-skinned arm covered with red blood streaks in front of the main tree house.

The blood lines on this arm have now dimmed safely, indicating that the arm has lost its life.

"It seems that the trolls that were blown to pieces cannot be resurrected like us." Lou Feier punched the arm.

Although he has lost his life, the huge muscles in his arms are still extremely strong and hard.

"...That's not necessarily the case." Ma Hongwei glanced at her, and just as he was about to ask something, the two of them were pulled up.

"Have you finished cleaning up?" Xu Xin directly pulled the two of them to the first floor.

Half of the space on the first floor before the expansion was a cold storage, and the other half is still empty, just used for cutting large pieces.

At this time, many people gathered around.

"Is this going to decompose the corpse of the troll just now?" One of the survivors asked in a low voice to the people around him.

"It must be!" Everyone was very excited and looked here with wide eyes.

"I'm so excited! I can actually watch the troll decompose up close!"

"It should be possible to decompose purple-level materials!"

"Purple level? What is purple level? It must be a material above purple level!"

"Excuse my ignorance, what level is above purple level?"

"I don't know either!" The man said confidently, "But it must be above the purple level! Intermediate mutated creatures have a chance of cutting out the purple level, and this is a troll dozens of meters high!"

"Hold the grass! So big!"

Lou Fei'er had already released the lower half of the troll's body, shocking everyone around her, including Xu Xin.

Because the big killing weapon penetrated directly into the troll's chest and exploded in the chest, the upper body was relatively damaged, but the lower half of the body from the abdomen was still intact.

It doesn't feel like this when you look at it from a few hundred meters away, but when you look closer, it's ridiculously big!

It was spread across the tree house, filling most of the tree house!

This foot alone is several times larger than a human being!

People around him began to move closer to the giant and look at it, and some people began to reach out and touch it.

"This is too strong!"

"Brother Xin and the others really killed a troll and brought it back!"

Although the body structure of trolls is similar to humans, and the similar shape may make people feel uncomfortable, these people are not afraid. Both men and women have curiosity and excitement in their eyes.

They are all people who have survived in this world until now.

Anyone who is afraid will die long ago.

"Okay, okay, don't make any more trouble." Xu Xin wanted to break it down directly, but when he saw this big thing, he suddenly felt that the small boning knife in his hand was very rubbish.

Moreover, as told to the people around me, this thing is likely to be able to decompose gold-level materials, but...

His boning knife is only at the purple level!

His boning knife is not a basic tool and cannot be decomposed into higher-level resources.

This is a bit uncomfortable...

Suddenly he didn't want to decompose.

But...

You can't keep them all, right?

"Okay, okay, go back and play your mahjong!"

Li Wenxi also felt that the people around him were too chaotic, so he quickly drove these people to the other side.

Xu Xin shook his head in distress, then looked up and saw Ma Hongwei's frown.

On the side, Lou Fei'er was lying by the window, looking around.

Jin Yue was entrusted by Lou Fei'er and had just jumped out of the window of the tree house to find the tiny troll body parts scattered around.

"What's wrong? What did you think of?" Xu Xin asked.

"Brother Xin." Ma Hongwei pointed at the half-body of the troll and then at Zi Level's backpack, "Neither Lou Fei'er nor I found the head of this troll. Its head is missing."


...?

The head is missing?

Xu Xin's eyelids twitched.

Can't find the head?

"Did it get blown up?" Li Wenxi closed the door over there and pushed the others over there. She heard the conversation between the two and turned around.

Ma Hongwei shook his head: "That's the head of a troll. It's such a big thing, no matter how far it flies, we can't see it. I asked Lou Fei'er just now, and we both thought the other had it. The head, in the end... neither of us got it."

"...Is it possible that his head was blown to pieces?" Xu Xin guessed.

"There should be no such possibility." Ma Hongwei shook his head, "At least, neither Lou Fei'er nor I found any fragments of the skull."

This...

At this time, Lou Fei'er also looked in all directions and came back.

"How is it?" Xu Xin asked.

Lou Feier shook her head: "There is no head, and there is nothing around. It must be gone, otherwise it would be impossible to see it."

Surrounded by bare jungle, a head so big could be seen flying thousands of meters away.

Not to mention that although the explosion is powerful, it is basically impossible to blow such a big head that far.

This is really far from Dapu!

"...Didn't we kill that troll?" Li Wenxi said tentatively, "Its head... ran away by itself?"

She said what was on the minds of several people present.

But...

How did the head run away on its own? !

Under the cover of the mushroom cloud just now, Gulu Gulu rolled away? !

No way...?

My body is torn apart, can I still survive?

"I always thought it wouldn't die so easily." Ma Hongwei said at this time, "That big guy is much stronger than us, even if we..."

He pointed at himself and Lou Fei'er: "Even if we can have a chance to be resurrected when we are about to die, how can this big guy not have it?"

Lou Fei'er doesn't think so: "Maybe it was destroyed by the explosion? We can recover because we are special. Look at those ordinary mutant creatures, can't they be resurrected?"

"But do you think..." Ma Hongwei glanced outside, "That big guy, he's just... a bit bigger, his skin is a bit greener, and he's a bit uglier. If I have to say it, isn't he? A...large mutated giant human? He doesn't even have any fur on his body. He's completely different from those furry monsters, but...a bit like us."

...What he said does make sense.

It made so much sense that it silenced several people around him.

Even Xu Xin didn't think about this aspect. Hearing Ma Hongwei say this, he even felt a little creepy.

In my mind, a map emerged.

There were no bright red dots around.

"Wait..." He suddenly thought of something.

He was so excited when he was killing the troll just now that he forgot one thing.

In the previous jungle hunting activities and all the activities after that, whenever he fought against mutant creatures, he had a way to verify the death of the creatures.

integral!

As long as the prey is killed, the prompt "Kill XXX, gain points: XX points" will appear in his mind.

But this time...

No!

Not this time!

Those who participated in the attack this time, including Lou Fei'er, Ma Hongwei, Zeng Tao and others, were all contracted by him. It stands to reason that even if he did not kill the troll with a big weapon, the points should still be counted on his head. right.

But no!

Trolls don’t count in points?

It's impossible.

"...Maybe the troll is really not dead." Xu Xin's face instantly turned uglier.

He told the others what he had just thought.

"This..."

The people around him were silent again.

There is a high probability that the blood-marked troll is really not dead!

Its head ran away on its own!

Or... was taken away by someone?

It seems ridiculous to have the head taken away, but in fact, Lou Fei'er and the others just brought back the troll's body!

Although the backpack cannot hold living things, as long as he has tools that can hold living things, such as his bracelet...

Damn it, he couldn't even imagine it!

what is going on!

He took a deep breath and calmed down.

It's not an option to dwell on it now.

The only thing they can do now is to strengthen themselves.

Well, when this scorching heat is over, he must take another trip to the hilly resource area.

"Ma Hongwei, go back and continue to study your heavy crossbow. Your achievements are our biggest reliance now as explorers. Also, please replenish the lost crossbow arrows this time."

Without his heavy crossbow, they might all have died at the hands of the troll today.

"Okay, then I'll go back, Brother Xin."

Today, Ma Hongwei saw the power of the heavy crossbow he made, and now he felt a little suppressed in his excitement.

It might not have killed the troll, but at least it had been beaten to a pulp!

He was so motivated now that he didn't stop any longer and went directly back to his tree house.

"Jin Yue is still outside. Go look around with her and pay attention to whether there is anything noteworthy around you."

"Yeah." Lou Fei'er nodded, and then Xu Xin put her down in the tree house.

Li Wenxi is now talking to Li Yajun and Niu Fugui about the current situation.

The two of them also lost their excitement just now, and their expressions gradually became worried.

Xu Xin walked over and said, "You guys, don't tell anyone else about this matter, and don't create unnecessary panic."

As he spoke, he patted Li Wenxi's head gently.

"Well..." Li Wenxi also realized that what she did was not right, and said a little embarrassedly, "I was wrong, they won't tell anyone."

"Don't worry, Brother Xin, I'm very strict with my mouth." Niu Fugui patted his chest and said.

"...That troll, if it recovers in the future, won't it come back for revenge?" Li Yajun was much more worried than Niu Fugui, and said slightly panicked.

"No, no, no." Li Wenxi thought for a moment, then shrank her neck and quickly waved her hands, "Even if it's not dead, it only has one head left, so the whole body can't grow back quickly, right? And , we are so strong, if it has any brains, it shouldn’t come back to look for us, otherwise it will be blown to pieces again!”

"...You're right." Xu Xin nodded, showing a reassuring smile, "Indeed, at least we should be safe during this period."

"Right!" Li Wenxi grabbed Xu Xin's arm and laughed.

Li Yajun and Niu Fugui looked at each other and felt much relieved.

Xu Xin narrowed his eyes slightly.

His attitude was just for them to see, and he just wanted them not to worry too much.

But he was worried in his heart.

Because, he was almost certain that if the giant was not dead, it would definitely come back.

Why did it attack the treehouse?

Because... the secret key.

As long as this secret key is here, it will definitely come back to find it again.

This secret key...

When Qin Fu wakes up, we must interrogate him properly!

"That's right!" Li Wenxi reached into her backpack, took out a metal block with a strange metallic color, and handed it to Xu Xin, "It was smelted successfully this morning, and I forgot to give it to you!"< br>


Under Xu Xin's identification ability, this piece of metal exuded a purple luster.

Purple grade meteorite!

He immediately reached out and took it.

[Meteorite Iron (Purple): The lowest quality meteorite iron.

Meteor iron comes from meteorites after the fall of wonderful small stars in space. It has extremely strong hardness, toughness, memory, and is extremely difficult to smelt. It is the best material for building certain facilities and tools. 】

Good guy, the first introduction made him smile helplessly.

The worst quality is okay.

The worst quality is the purple level.

But...

Facilities and tools?

"Let's go up first and see what this thing can do."

Xu Xin took Li Wenxi to the workshop on the second floor.

"Huh? The giant corpse below..."

Xu Xin reached out and touched the [Weapon and Armor Production Table] and immediately started to check the production list.

What made him a little disappointed was that this meteorite iron could not be used to make weapons.

Because the blueprints for various weapons have not been added.

"It can't be used as a weapon..." Li Wenxi was also a little disappointed.

"Actually, it doesn't matter, our steel is also very strong." Xu Xin said and continued to paddle downwards.

Is there... is there?

have!

When he saw this new blueprint, his eyes suddenly lit up.

[Meteorite iron boning knife (purple): The boning knife made of meteorite iron greatly improves the decomposition efficiency of the boning knife compared to the stone boning knife, and slightly increases the level of the decomposed material. At the same time, the meteorite iron boning knife can decompose materials that are one level higher than the boning knife. 】

A boning knife that can decompose materials of a higher grade!

He just saw the production "tool" shown in the introduction, and he thought of this. He came over to take a look, and sure enough!

There actually is!

This is really what you want.

The meteorite boning knife only requires a piece of meteorite iron to make, and he can make it now.

However, he did not make it immediately, but asked Li Wenxi: "How many pieces of meteorite do you have in your hand now?"

"Not much." Li Wenxi pointed to the piece in Xu Xin's hand and said, "Including your piece, I can only smelt three pieces in total."

Xu Xin nodded.

He didn't rush to make it, but went around the various workbenches.

Nothing was found.

Until he touched the first workbench he made when he first came to this world.

Synthetic table.

The initial workbench.

"Wow! This, this, this...!" On the side, Li Wenxi's eyes widened, "A high-end workbench!"

That's right, purple-grade meteorite can be used to make a more advanced... workbench!

His current workbench is the first batch of green-level workbench.

These workbenches cannot be upgraded, but will serve the purpose.

Although it was a green-level weapon and armor making station, it could make purple-level weapons, so he didn't pay much attention to it.

But now, there are many new blueprints in the synthesis table's production list!

Purple level workbench!

[Weapon and Armor Making Bench (Purple)], [Sculpting and Painting Workbench (Purple)], and even [Electrical Appliance Making Bench (Purple)]!

This meteorite can be used to upgrade the workbench!

By upgrading the workbench, brand new things will appear to enhance their strength!

But...

"...There are a lot of materials needed." Xu Xin sighed slightly.

A workbench requires three pieces of purple-grade meteorite iron.

What he had in hand could only make one of them.

"It's okay." Li Wenxi said immediately, "I have expanded my smelting room. There are now twenty furnaces. As long as there is enough coal, I can melt it!"

It was very hot at home, but it did not have a great impact on her furnace. After all, the temperature in the smelting room was always very high.

It was just too hot to run back.

"That's good." Xu Xin laughed immediately, "Then it's up to you."

"However, the main focus is on smelting steel recently. This time too many heavy crossbow bolts are consumed, and every shot is a resource! It is necessary to replenish it, it really consumes too much..."

Li Wenxi had another headache.

"Next time someone comes to seek refuge, ask for more."

"Hmph, I have to ask for half of them next time! My people are simply the busiest..."

Xu Xin returned to the weapon and armor making table and made a [Meteorite Iron Eboning Knife (Purple)].

An extremely sharp knife, compared to his purple-grade stone boning knife, it looked like it was from a different generation.

Next, it’s time to get to work!

He returned to the first floor and looked at the lower half of the troll's body squeezed into the single floor of the treehouse.

Then, he glanced at the small boning knife in his hand. ...how to break this down?
