"The tornado... disappeared?" Xu Xin was confused.
He was just thinking about how to deal with the monster in the vortex, but he didn't expect that in just a few dozen seconds, everything around him changed.
The tornado disappeared along with the purple-black vortex, and they all disappeared in an instant.
Fortunately, the heavy rain has not stopped, which allows Xu Xin to still feel a sense of reality.
He looked around.
There are more huge tornadoes like this one near his tree house.
Xu Xin discovered that only the tornado near his tree house disappeared.
Floating on the water and looking around, the tornadoes in the distance were still spinning in their original positions, connected to the dark clouds in the sky, like huge funnels reaching straight into the sky. It was very oppressive, and it was a complete scene of a doomsday natural disaster.
Just when Xu Xin was still floating on the water in a daze, a mysterious voice sounded.
Congratulations to the survivor for being the first person in this batch of survivors to manually eliminate a tornado. The reward will be distributed after the event ends.
This voice brought Xu Xin back to his senses.
He actually eliminated the tornado! But what did he do
He killed the blood-marked swordfish guarding the eye of the tornado and entered the underwater eye of the tornado. In the eye of the tornado, he found a broken wooden box containing a purple-level treasure. Then, he discovered a small purple-black vortex and attacked it.
The tornado disappeared because he shot the purple-black vortex with a crossbow arrow.
In other words, just by using weapons to attack the vortex that should be the cause and core of the tornado, the entire tornado can be eliminated
This is quite simple.
However, it is indeed difficult for ordinary survivors. Just the presence of that one aquatic intermediate mutant beast is enough to stop most people in their tracks, not to mention that few people would dare to enter the underwater whirlpool like him.
He dared to enter the vortex and go deep into the eye of the storm only because Coco told him that the tornado itself was not dangerous and there were treasures inside. If it weren't for Coco, he would never have dared to enter.
So, what was inside that small vortex that was the core? Those strange sounds, the dark red sticky substance, everything in the vortex made Xu Xin very curious.
However, the tornado has disappeared, and there is only this one tornado within the protection range of his tree house. If he wants to solve the mystery, he can only wait until the next time he encounters that strange vortex.
Xu Xin ate another piece of water grass, dived into the water, and began to look for missed resources in the waters ravaged by the tornado.
Without the whirlpool in the water, the surrounding small trees were destroyed by the tornado, leaving only a small piece in the middle. Everything under this area of water was visible to Xu Xin.
"Huh? Another ornamental fish?"
On the other side of the tornado, two fish swam in the underwater woods. One black and one white, the size of a carp, they kept spinning around each other, with blue light on their bodies.
"A blue grade fish!" Xu Xin was overjoyed and swam over there quickly.
Just like the colorful-scaled fish they encountered before, these two fish, one black and one white, not only did not dodge when Xu Xin approached, but they even came close to Xu Xin and began to circle around him.
Perhaps, it is the effect of the scale armor suit on my body.
Xu Xin stretched out his hand and caught the white fish. The fish did not struggle and was held quietly in his hand, while the black fish continued to circle around him.
Tai Chi White Fish (Blue): A high-level ornamental fish. Raising it in a tree house can increase the decorativeness of the tree house. When paired with a Tai Chi Black Fish, the decorativeness will be doubled. It will also gradually improve the physical fitness of the survivors living in the tree house and prolong their lifespan.
These two fish, one black and one white, are called Tai Chi fish, which is indeed quite descriptive.
Moreover, keeping them in a tree house can actually improve physical fitness and prolong life! Such treasures are priceless in peacetime!
For survivors who are in danger of death at any time, life is not so precious. After all, no one knows whether they will die in an accident the next day, so it is useless to live a long life.
However, Xu Xin happily put the two fish into a wooden barrel filled with water and put it into his backpack.
He was still very confident that he could survive. After all, he had won the first place title several times, so prolonging his life was still very attractive to him.
After swimming around the tornado-ravaged area for a long time, we found that there were no other resources around except the white-level stones everywhere.
It was already approaching evening, and the dark sky became even darker. Xu Xin counted the resources in his hands and began to swim towards the tree house.
Along the way, you can encounter many fish swimming out of the lake.
Compared to after the anaconda-crocodile battle, their bodies were indeed larger, even larger than when I saw them in the morning. Their scales looked more textured, and even in this cloudy evening, their entire bodies still reflected a faint light.
They seemed to have really evolved to a more advanced level because of the blood of giant anacondas and crocodiles, and had a hint of mutant beasts.
But like giant anacondas and giant crocodiles, although they have become much larger than their normal counterparts, they do not have the iconic blood-red patterns of mutant beasts.
"Why is that? Could it be that giant anacondas and giant crocodiles are another evolutionary path?"
These fish did not emit the light of resource quality directly like those ornamental fish, so Xu Xin had to kill a grass carp that was almost half a meter long.
Get out your boning knife and cut up the fish right there in the water.
To his disappointment, it turned out to be just a very ordinary fish, with the highest resource being green level, which meant it had more meat.
"Have they simply grown a little bigger, or have they not completed the mutation?" Xu Xin thought. These fish are bigger than they were this morning, which means they are still growing.
He plans to wait a few days and then check again.
However, this vast ocean in the jungle will probably disappear after the rainy season ends. I hope these fish can be smarter and swim back to the lake.
Xu Xin quickly swam back to the tree house, grabbed the roots and entered the third floor of the tree house, and threw a piece of fish to the bat hanging under the tree house.
After seeing the tornado disappear, the three Coco beasts were attracted to the window again. When they saw Xu Xin coming back, the Coco and Silver King surrounded him. Mimi was still at the window, but her eyes were already looking at Xu Xin.
While Xu Xin was telling them about his experiences, he built a large fish tank and poured two Tai Chi fish, one black and one white, into the tank.
As soon as the two fish entered the tank, they began to circle around the center of the tank.
Detected that Taiji white fish (blue)*1, Taiji black fish (blue)*1 are raised in the tree house, tree house decoration degree +16, triggering Taiji fish combination effect, tree house decoration degree +16, current tree house decoration degree: 46.4
Wow, the two fish directly added 32 points of decoration, worthy of being blue-level ornamental fish.
At the same time, Xu Xin also felt that the two fish were emitting a gentle wave that was affecting his body.
This should be the effect of strengthening physical fitness and prolonging life.
However, since we are raising fish, we naturally have to feed them something. We can't just feed them meat like we feed the Coco Silver King, especially those colorful scale fish, which are so small.
Since it is a special ornamental fish, there should be special fish food, right
Xu Xin thought of something and started searching in the points mall, and sure enough he found it.
Ornamental fish food (green): necessary for feeding ornamental fish, just sprinkle it into the fish tank. Points: 50 (35)
Damn, 50 points for a bag of fish food!
You know, he only got 100 points for killing a mid-level mutant creature!
The breeding cost is too high!
Fortunately, he had a 30% discount, so he reluctantly exchanged it for a bag of fish food.
The fish food was just a small bag, filled with cherry pit-sized pellets.
Xu Xin threw more than a dozen fish food into the fish tank of the Tai Chi fish. The two fish stopped spinning and swam to eat the fish food. However, they did not eat all the fish food. Each fish only ate five fish food and then continued to spin. The remaining fish food gradually sank to the bottom of the water.
Xu Xin sprinkled more than a dozen pellets into the fish tank, and the fish in the tank suddenly became chaotic and began to eat the food collectively. However, Xu Xin found that these small fish only ate three or four pellets in total, and then returned to their leisurely state.
He breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, they didn't consume much. If they only ate this much every day, this bag of fish food would probably last ten days to half a month.
But even so, the points required are enough. Next time, I will try to see if they will eat ordinary meat and fruits. It will cost nearly a hundred points just to raise fish this month, which is really a bit too much.
After boiling some water, Xu Xin lay in the bathtub and took a comfortable hot bath.
"I'll try out my new abilities, carving and painting, later. I hope they can help me survive."
