Chapter 490 Information isolation! (4500 words)
Xu Xin's head was still half asleep and half awake, a little confused: "...lost contact with the outside world?"
"For some reason, I can only communicate with you and the survivors in my treehouse now. Even with the few people over there, I can no longer communicate through the treehouse system."
< br>
...?
What?
ah? !
Xu Xin suddenly woke up and sat up from the bed: "You can only contact me?"
"Well..." Li Wenxi turned over, facing him with her fair back and buttocks, and continued to sleep.
"That's right, please figure out the situation there quickly. I'll try again and contact you later."
With that said, Ji Chaoyang hung up the call.
Xu Xin quickly opened the projection of the watch.
The first thing I see is a few channels that have been completely grayed out.
[World Channel], [Alliance Channel], and [Regional Channel], the three major channels have been completely grayed out, and you can't even click on them.
this……!
This is the first time we have encountered this situation since the opening of regional channels!
There have indeed been cases where communication was impossible in the past, but that was because they were in a rather special location and the watch signal was poor, causing them to be isolated from the treehouse system and unable to receive information.
Moreover, at that time, the channel could be turned on, but the signal was simply too poor to receive.
Completely different from the current situation.
Now it's as if the entire channel has been disabled!
He immediately stood up and looked out the window.
Although it's only five o'clock now, it's already dawn outside.
The days are indeed long enough now.
"This..."
Looking at the green jungle outside, Xu Xin was a little surprised.
The jungle... has recovered?
Yesterday, under the harsh direct sunlight, the bare trees and the newly sprouted buds on the ground dried up and died, so the jungle was still bare when it entered night yesterday.
But now, there is a thriving scene in the jungle.
Moreover, because they are new buds, compared to the dark green in the jungle before, it is now a new green, which makes people feel much more comfortable.
The view is mostly blocked by the large canopy of trees.
"Huh...?" Coco woke up from Xu Xin's movements, got up, and rubbed her eyes with her little paws.
"Keke, is there any danger around now?" Xu Xin directly picked up Keke and walked to the window and asked.
"...Huh?" Coco's little head that had just woken up was still unable to turn around. She was confused for a while before shaking her head, "Huh."
He felt slightly relieved.
At least there's no danger around the tree house now.
"Hmm...? What's wrong?" Li Wenxi was also woken up by him and opened her eyes slightly, "Is it time to get up..."
"It's okay, it's only five o'clock, you can sleep a little longer."
"Well..." Hearing this, Li Wenxi closed her eyes again.
Coco also crawled to the bedside to sleep again.
Xu Xin got dressed and ran to the living room.
Silver King Mimi and the others were still sleeping. When they saw Xu Xin coming, they just raised their eyes and continued to sleep.
He immediately clicked on the treehouse screen.
After all, the problem discovered before might just be a problem with the watch, and there might not be a problem with the system of the treehouse itself.
But to his disappointment, even the treehouse's own system, the three major channels were all dimmed.
He immediately clicked on the private message.
...No wonder Ji Chaoyang said he could only contact himself.
In his private messages, most of the names have been darkened.
Instead of turning gray, the color dimmed.
He tried to click on these faded names to send private messages, but in the end, there was no response.
However, there are still some people whose names are lit up.
Lou Fei'er, Ma Hongwei, Zeng Tao, Qin Fu, Jin Yue, and those parasitic people on Ma Hongwei's side can still be contacted.
Apart from them, there are only two people whose names are fully lit and can be contacted.
One is Ji Chaoyang and the other is Li Wenxi.
There was a glimmer of enlightenment in his heart.
The reason why he can communicate with these two people is probably because their treehouses are very close to his own.
The distance between the two of them and their tree house is about 20 kilometers, and they are the nearest neighbors in the area.
Perhaps it is precisely because of this that I am able to contact them.
Xu Xin returned to the bedroom and pinched Li Wenxi's face to wake her up.
"Um...what are you doing...!"
She sat up, still dazed, and leaned into Xu Xin's arms to fall asleep again.
"Get up, the sun is shining on your butt. Besides, something happened."
"... Something happened?" Li Wenxi suddenly became more awake and looked at him with her eyes open.
Xu Xin briefly explained the situation to her, and then initiated a voice call directly to her face to face.
"Is there such a thing?!" She woke up completely and looked out the window, "Why? Because it's too hot and the signal is lost?"
However, what made both of them feel very strange was that Xu Xin's voice was indeed connected, but Li Wenxi's watch did not vibrate and there was no notification of receiving the message.
The two looked at each other.
What is going on?
Li Wenxi raised her watch and swiped it, and the projection was projected.
"Huh? This..." She stared at the projection with wide eyes.
"...Is this really the case?"
Although the projection was indeed cast,...
Above, it is indeed a dark gray.
That's right, it's just a black and gray patch of nothing.
No interface, no options, nothing.
On the black and gray, there are still light spots beating from time to time, like the snowflake screen of an old TV.
Li Wenxi tried to move it a few times, but there was no response.
"What the hell is going on?" She murmured to herself and moved a few more times in disbelief.
Xu Xin frowned slightly.
Can his watch be used?
After thinking for a while, an idea came to his mind.
He immediately sent a voice message to Ji Chaoyang.
The person on the other side answered the call immediately: "How are you doing there?"
"I can only contact you and Wen Xi."
"...It seems that my guess is correct." Ji Chaoyang's voice deepened slightly, "The range of our tree house that can be contacted has been greatly reduced for some reason. Now, we can only communicate with survivors who are very close to each other. ”
"That should be it." Xu Xin also nodded in agreement, and then asked, "Qi Xuefei is with you now, right? Can you contact her?"
"She hasn't woken up yet, but her name here is dim and I can't establish contact with her tree house. Her tree house is still too far away from us. I can't even contact Li Wenxi, let alone her. Treehouse.”
"...Indeed."
It seems that the ability to communicate has nothing to do with the location of the watch, only the location of the tree house.
But...
"Can Sister Xue Fei's watch be used?" Li Wenxi suddenly asked, "My watch cannot be used."
"...the watch doesn't work?"
Ji Chaoyang was not surprised that Li Wenxi was by Xu Xin's side, but he was very concerned about what Li Wenxi said: "What does it mean that the watch cannot be used?"
"That's it..." Xu Xin explained.
"In other words, it is impossible to establish contact with your tree house?" Ji Chaoyang found the point directly, and then said, "I'll wake up Xue Fei and take a look."
With that said, he hung up the phone.
Li Wenxi was a little restless, and then stood up abruptly: "No, I have to go back to the tree house to take a look! Doesn't it mean that even the teleportation gate can't be used?"
"Wait a moment and see what's going on with Ji Chaoyang."
"Okay..."
At this time, Xu Xin's ear suddenly heard a notification sound.
[It is detected that the decoration degree of the tree house is greater than 1000, and you will get today's random increase: high temperature resistance. The effect lasts for one day. You can choose the second increase from the historical increase. 】
[At the same time, you can choose a survivor who has slept in the tree house for three hours, and he will receive a random increase. 】
Xu Xin's eyes lit up slightly.
High temperature resistance!
This random increase...!
New!
Moreover, you can tell what it means just by looking at the name!
Sure enough, if the tree house decoration degree exceeds 1,000 points, a new increase will appear.
This couldn't have come at a better time!
His random increase is really suitable for every occasion!
It’s just...
Why does he feel a little cold?
He quickly clicked on the [Random Amplification] option to check the [High Temperature Resistance] ability.
[High temperature resistance: The maximum temperature that survivors can withstand is 30 degrees Celsius, and the minimum temperature that survivors can withstand is 20 degrees Celsius. Survivors will be comfortable in high-temperature environments, but will also be more afraid of low-temperature environments. 】
?
What's going on?
Do you actually have such ability...
Double-edged sword?
The maximum tolerable temperature has been increased by 30 degrees. In other words, originally he could perform strenuous exercise at a maximum temperature of about 40 degrees without suffering from heat stroke. Now, it is 70 degrees.
For the current situation, it is indeed a very useful ability.
But there are still disadvantages.
His minimum tolerable temperature has also been raised, and it has been raised by a full twenty degrees.
To put it simply, the current temperature in the tree house is about 24 to 5 degrees, but for him now, it is about the same as the physical temperature of 4 to 5 degrees.
He is now wearing a simple casual outfit purchased from the Points Mall, which has basically no insulation effect, so he feels now...
It's so cold!
This ability is really a double-edged sword.
However, it doesn't hurt.
After all, if it’s cold, wear more clothes.
He directly put on the blue-level leather armor set that he had not used for a long time.
Blue-level leather armor sets themselves have a pretty good thermal insulation effect. When they first met Ji Chaoyang and Li Wenxi during the Falling Leaf Season, they were wearing leather armor sets.
The temperature at that time was in the single digits.
So it’s no problem for him to wear this indoors now, and it’s easy to move around.
"Why are you suddenly wearing leather armor?" Li Wenxi glanced at him, then her eyes lit up and said, "I don't think I've ever seen you wearing leather armor."
"There's something wrong with my random increase, but it's not harmful." Xu Xin smiled and said, "Wait a minute, I have a surprise for you."
"Surprise?" Li Wenxi was a little curious, "What surprise?"
Xu Xin saw the survivors he could choose now in the [Random Amplification] interface.
Optional survivors: Li Wenxi, Qin Fu, Zeng Tao, Li Yajun, Niu Fugui...
There are a series of names behind it.
They were all the survivors who lived in his tree house last night.
He can only choose one to give a random boost to.
However, I feel that this number should increase as the level of decoration increases in the future.
He directly chose Li Wenxi.
"Huh?" Li Wenxi's eyes widened instantly, "Huh? What? Ah? How do I...increase randomly?"
"How is it? What gains have been made..."
Before Xu Xin finished speaking, she felt that Li Wenxi in front of her had changed.
It became... very tempting.
I just woke up with some messy hair, wide-open almond eyes, and thin lips that look very soft...
And that delicate body that is now naked under the thin quilt.
For some reason, it became very tempting.
"Is it... the affinity increase? Ah, it's the affinity increase that made you very attractive before, right?" Li Wenxi looked at her hands, a little surprised, "I can actually get a random increase?"
She immediately turned to look at Xu Xin: "Is this the new ability of your tree house? This is great! I will only be here with you from now on... Why are you looking at me like this, what do you want to do... …?”
She immediately felt Xu Xin's increasingly aggressive gaze, and tightened the quilt around her body: "Is this increase in affinity so strong...ah!"
Xu Xin pushed her directly onto the bed.
"No, no! There are people next door!"
……Grass.
"He's not awake yet, just keep your voice down and don't wake him up." Xu Xin couldn't help but whispered in her ear.
"No, no, no!" Li Wenxi pushed him, her face flushed, and begged, "Let's wait until he leaves!"
"...Okay, okay." Xu Xin didn't want to hear certain sounds next door, so she could only resist her desire and get up.
Of course, before he stood up, he still kissed the person under him until his whole body went limp.
... From now on, people should not live next door.
Anyone who comes to live in his tree house from now on will live below!
It’s really uncomfortable...
Li Wenxi quickly put on her clothes with a blushing face.
Xu Xin kept looking at her, which made her a little uncomfortable: "Why are you looking at me wearing clothes..."
"...Is this the increase in affinity?"
This is really powerful.
Now, whenever he looks at Li Wenxi, he feels like...
I don't want to feel separated from her for a second.
The relationship should be very close to begin with, and the ability to increase affinity can be well demonstrated.
This increase in affinity is really wonderful.
At this time, his watch vibrated. It was a voice from Ji Chaoyang.
He took a deep breath to calm down, and then connected the voice: "How is it?"
"Xue Fei's watch can no longer be used."
Is that really the case?
"So what's going on?" Li Wenxi came over and asked, "Why doesn't the watch work?"
Xu Xin couldn't help pinching her cheek: "I feel that the connection between your watch and the tree house has been disconnected. Just like the connection between your tree house and other tree houses has been disconnected."
"Huh? I don't really understand..." Li Wenxi said in confusion.
"This is what I surmise," Ji Chaoyang's voice sounded again on the other end of the line, "Now, the contact range of each tree house has been greatly reduced. Based on the existing data, the contact range of the tree house should be between twenty kilometers and Between forty kilometers ”
"The watch needs to be connected to the treehouse for control. Xue Fei and I just went back to her treehouse. Her watch can be used near her treehouse, but mine cannot be used. That is Said that the current watch also has a connecting distance to the tree house. It cannot be too far beyond the tree house, otherwise it cannot be used. ”
Xu Xin nodded slightly.
This is basically consistent with his thinking.
"The question now is," Xu Xin started, "Why did the tree house's contact range shrink? Is it affected by something?"
He looked out the window and opened it.
Heat blew in from the window.
The sunlight was so strong that it even made a sizzling sound when it shone on the green leaves.
He stretched out his hand, letting the sun shine on his hand.
Even though he had high temperature resistance, the sunlight hitting his body caused some pain on his skin, so he quickly took it back.
This sunshine is so poisonous!
"Now, it's not just a problem of high temperature." Ji Chaoyang said in a deep voice, "Perhaps, the sunlight is the culprit of all this. Whether it is high temperature or communication problems, I'm afraid they are all caused by the sunlight!"... Yes Did this weird sunlight cut off their communication?
