The heavy rain was still continuing, but the frequency of thunder was significantly lower after the activity started.
Silver King and Mimi also came to the window. The huge tornado outside made them very curious. They kept lying on the window and looking out, but they didn't seem to be afraid.
Perhaps, the mutant beasts have the ability to foresee danger, and they do not feel any crisis from this huge tornado, so they are not afraid.
"Oh! Oh! Oh!" Coco stood on the windowsill, pointing at the tornado outside and explaining to the two beasts.
Xu Xinke didn't understand what they were saying, so he shook his head and looked down at the tree house.
“… The water level is rising too fast.”
The water level under the tree house continued to rise, completely submerging the newly grown small tree below the water surface. The entire area outside the tree house seemed to have turned into a vast ocean, and the water level was estimated to be close to four meters.
"Oh my god, the tornado outside is so scary!"
"Don't worry. Didn't you see what Boss Ji Chaoyang said just now? He said that this tornado will not attack us. Maybe it will even bring us treasures."
"I don't dare to ask for any treasure anymore. I'm lucky enough to be alive..."
"It's not a jungle outside now, it's just an ocean!"
Xu Xin flipped up and found that Ji Chaoyang had already sent their group's ideas to the other survivors, asking them not to worry too much about the tornado and to try to move their things to higher floors first.
"But the water outside is rising too fast!"
"It's over, it's over, it's almost reaching the window, the water is about to get into the tree house!"
"What should I do? What should I do? Even the tree house is about to be flooded. There is water all over the outside. There is no place to stand. I can't swim..."
Those who are complaining are probably the ones who did not get the tree house level +1 reward in the last dungeon activity, so they only have a low one-story tree house.
If this level of the tree house was flooded, they would literally be homeless.
The water level outside is nearly four meters, while the lowest point of the low tree houses is only three meters, and the bottom edge of the windows is only about four meters from the ground. It seems that if the water level outside continues to rise, these low tree houses will definitely be flooded and eventually submerged.
These people couldn't even add windows to the tree house. The tree house facilities he made, such as glass windows, were abilities given to him by the tree house transformation contract in the silver treasure chest. Except for the explorers, no one else had such abilities yet.
If wooden windows were useful, Xu Xin had so much wood in his hands that he could make a bunch of them on the spot to help everyone and make some money at the same time. However, wooden windows have gaps and obviously cannot block the torrent from outside. Closed glass windows might be able to do that.
But he couldn't do anything about the glass windows because there wasn't enough material.
"Luckily I have a second floor. If the first floor gets flooded I can go to the second floor to take shelter."
"Brothers and sisters who have a second floor, please move all your things to the second floor quickly, the first floor is about to flood!"
"We have already finished moving. I did whatever the boss said. Now I can only pray that the water level does not reach the second floor."
"After the flood, I'm afraid everyone will lose contact..."
Xu Xin was not panicked at all. The bottom floor of his cave was ten meters high, and the top floor was even more than twenty meters high. If even he was flooded, no one would be alive.
"Oh shit, the water is coming in! It's pouring in! It's really going to flood!"
"It's no use piling up cabinets, there's no way I can seal the window!"
The heavy rain outside was still pouring down like a waterfall, and the water level was rising rapidly.
"Everyone, we can only go to the roof. Grab the roots. The tree house can take us to the roof. We can only take shelter there first!"
"But the rain outside was too heavy. I was exposed to the rain for a whole day and night. I caught a cold, had a fever, and suffered from hypothermia..."
"What else can I do? I'm going to leave first. Take care, everyone!"
"I'm going too!"
"Fuck, when I was seven or eight years old, I loved running in the rain. Getting wet was nothing!"
"It's better than drowning!"
As time went by, the water level outside had reached a depth of five or six meters, and the first floor of the low tree house should have been completely submerged.
Fortunately, after reaching this height, the water level did not rise further.
Although the heavy rain was still continuing, Xu Xin could clearly feel that the rain outside was much lighter, at least no longer like a waterfall, making it impossible for people to even stand firmly in the rain.
"Has the surrounding environment stabilized?" Xu Xin looked at the tornado outside. The tornado was still as terrifying as before and there was no change.
Looking around, the original jungle was like a vast ocean, and his tree house was the only isolated island in the ocean.
Hmm? Something is wrong...
Xu Xin frowned and thought for a while, then suddenly thought of something and his eyelids twitched.
Where are those hills to the northwest
Those hills are at least tens of meters high, it’s impossible for them to be submerged!
Gone? He ran away...
Xu Xin took a deep breath and didn't dare to think about it anymore.
There was no point in thinking about it. If those hills were really a group of monsters in disguise as he had imagined last time, then there was nothing he could do.
Fortunately, Tornado is in the southwest. If he really wants to go to Tornado to search for treasure, he doesn't need to get close to the original hilly resource area.
The regional channel has become very quiet nowadays. It is the quietest it has been since the regional channel was opened. Not a single person talks for half a day.
It makes sense. Among all the survivors, most of them own low tree houses, and the screens in these tree houses are on the first floor.
The screen is embedded directly into the wall and cannot be moved at all, so even those who have obtained the tree house floor +1 bonus and hid in the second floor of the tree house can no longer communicate through the screen.
The only ones who can still communicate now are probably the few people in their explorer organization who have watches, and some others who have planted the initial two-story tree house.
At this moment, someone suddenly sent a message on the regional channel: "Is anyone else here?"
This message appeared in a regional channel that had not been active for a long time, and immediately attracted Xu Xin's attention.
He directly revealed his real name: Qi Zixuan.
Xu Xin's eyelids jumped. This name seemed familiar. He seemed to be... Qi Xuefei's younger brother? The one who was actually leading the Xuanhu Jishi Organization
Qi Xuefei had said before in the group that because each survivor can only join one group chat at present, she joined the explorer after she quit Xuanhu Jishi, and now the one who is coordinating Xuanhu Jishi is her younger brother Qi Zixuan.
"Someone."
"I'm still here."
A few people popped up here and there. None of them were anonymous, after all, there was no point in being anonymous now.
These names looked very familiar to Xu Xin, as they were all frequent visitors to the top dozens of the rankings.
"I am one of the organizers of Xuanhu Jishi. I just want to tell you that you don't have to worry about getting a fever or hypothermia due to being caught in the rain or staying in the water for too long. Our organization has prepared medicines for this purpose. If you need them, you can buy them from me."
oh
Xu Xin had asked Qi Xuefei before the event, and she said the medicine had been made, but it needed to be enhanced with the new materials from yesterday, so she would be given another day. I guess the medicine Qi Zixuan was selling was a finished product that had not been enhanced.
At this time, Qi Xuefei also spoke in the explorer group: "If you have any needs, you can contact me directly, but this batch of drugs has not been optimized yet. Although it will work after taking it, it will cause weakness for a period of time. Please be cautious when purchasing and using it."
Will it cause weakness after taking it
This was not the first time Xu Xin had seen this effect. The introduction of the weight loss pills (blue) in the points mall mentioned this negative impact, which would make one feel weak for a whole day after taking it.
Since there are clear negative effects, it seems that Qi Xuefei really made a medicine with properties that is recognized by the tree house system.
Xu Xin sent a private message to Qi Xuefei: "How long will I be weak after taking this medicine?"
Qi Xuefei: "I don't know. The introduction just said that you will be weak for a period of time."
Xu Xin pondered for a moment and said, "Give me a dose of medicine that has not yet been optimized."
Qi Xuefei: "Okay, this is just a trial. The effect is indeed not very good. After this event is over, the real product will be ready."
The other party initiated the deal and gave him a pill.
Ordinary pills (green): After taking them, they can instantly cure common diseases contracted within three days, but will make the body weak for two hours after being cured.
His ability to discern was able to tell that the duration of weakness was two hours.
It can cure diseases contracted within three days, which is a very powerful effect. Although it will make you weak for two hours, it is still a very valuable medicine. It is not like the diet pills (blue) that will make you weak for a whole day. The two hours can be spent in your sleep at night.
"What is the scope of this common disease?" Xu Xin asked.
"Actually, I'm not too sure. After all, it's just been made and hasn't been through any clinical trials yet. But it should be fine for colds, fevers, hypothermia, and the like. In fact, I originally wanted to at least figure out all these before selling it, but Zixuan took it out on his own initiative. So let you try it first."
So he is actually a guinea pig, right
But it’s not a big problem. At least his ability to identify has told him the pros and cons of this pill.
This Qi Xuefei really made a very useful medicine! Making this medicine must be her special ability, so you must make friends with her.
After getting the pills that could cure the disease, Xu Xin no longer had to worry too much.
Looking at the tornado that was still spinning outside the window, he took a deep breath.
Maybe it's time to go out and take a look.
