Survival: Starting with a Tiny Treehouse

Chapter 145: Break out of the red fog

Views:

After being busy for so long and even taking the risk of going into the red fog, Xu Xin ended up getting a damaged windmill, which made him laugh and cry.

But fortunately, there was no danger.

Let's go back, there doesn't seem to be anything else here.

Riding on the Silver King, Xu Xin looked around and his face changed.

“… I was careless.”

All the surrounding hills were shrouded in thick red fog, and he could no longer find any place where the fog was thinner.

If there is no location where the red fog is thin, it means that he can no longer get out safely.

Riding on the Silver King, Xu Xin came to the vicinity of the salt mine cave.

The red fog near here was the most dense, and the smell gradually became pungent and began to turn into a foul smell. He was very familiar with this smell, which was the stench of the red fog at the entrance to the underground world.

Sure enough, his previous guess was correct. The red mist was the red stench in the iron passage.

After observing the salt mine for a long time, Xu Xin breathed a sigh of relief.

After the red fog completely enveloped the surrounding hills, there was no more red gas spreading out of the mine. All the red fog seemed to be sucked in by something, just floating and surging near the hills, with no tendency to spread outwards.

Xu Xin was not in a hurry.

He didn't dare to rush into the red fog before because he didn't know how large the area covered by the red fog was. He thought that the entire resource area inside was covered by the red fog.

It’s different now. He already knows that the red fog only covers this circle of hills, so it’s very easy to deal with.

After being strengthened over the past few days, the Silver King's speed has exceeded 100 kilometers per hour. Although it is slower than Mimi and cannot burst into extremely fast speed like Mimi, as long as it is accelerated over a certain distance, it can maintain a speed of 100 kilometers per hour.

A speed of 100 kilometers per hour is enough to avoid the vines that are coming out from an unknown depth underground.

Although there are numerous vines and their attack power is exaggerated, there will be no big problem as long as you don't confront them head-on in groups.

In other words, as long as the Silver King keeps running, he can take Xu Xin and Coco out of the red fog wall that is several hundred meters thick.

As for Mimi and the bats, there was even less to worry about. Mimi could just spin around in the red fog a few more times, use her speed to play around with those weird vines, and then get out without any problems. The bats would not be targeted directly.

"Little bat... let's give you a name. Well, let's call you Ah Fu." Xu Xin clapped his hands and decided on the bat's name.

Bat... Oh no, Ah Fu flapped his wings twice on Mimi's back and let out a soft scream, as if expressing his dissatisfaction.

“嘤…” Coco covered her mouth with her little paws, as if she was laughing. Even Silver King and Mimi turned their heads to the side, as if expressing regret for their owner’s ability to name things.

But Xu Xin felt good and nodded with satisfaction: "Afu, do you want to enter my bracelet or fly out first?"

If Ah Fu doesn't want to enter the bracelet, he can only let it fly out first, because they will attract underground creatures, and Ah Fu may be accidentally hurt then.

Ah Fu screamed softly, and without thinking too much, he flapped his wings and flew into the red mist.

It seems that it really doesn't want to enter the bracelet. Perhaps the bracelet is a silent, dark, prison-like space.

The red mist was very thick and Ah Fu disappeared in the blink of an eye.

After waiting for a long time, Ah Fu's voice came from the other side of the red fog, and Xu Xin knew that it had passed.

He immediately ordered the Silver King to retreat several hundred meters and told it to rush forward at the fastest speed.

As for Mimi, she should not run in front of the Silver King, otherwise vines will appear in front of and behind the Silver King at the same time, attacking them from the front and back. Once they slow down, the vines will suddenly grow up and surround them, and they will probably die immediately.

"Coco, hold on tight! Silver King, go!" Xu Xin ordered, holding a crossbow.

"Awooo-" With a wolf howl, the Silver King accelerated and rushed towards the red fog. Mimi matched the speed of the Silver King and ran side by side with him.

Xu Xin took out his crossbow and held it in his hand. He didn't dare to use the spear, as he was afraid that the resistance brought by the spear attack would slow down the Silver King's speed.

The red fog was getting closer and closer, and the Silver King's speed reached its fastest. Xu Xin took a deep breath, held his breath, and together with the Silver King Keke, suddenly plunged into the red fog!

My sight was instantly filled with red.

The field of vision in the red fog is very narrow, and you can only see a few meters in front of you.

The Silver King had just stepped into the red fog and ran only two steps when he heard the sound of the ground cracking and vines emerging from behind him.

Xu Xin looked back and his pupils shrank.

In the diffuse red fog, at least seven or eight vines emerged. The red fog was surging around them, and the blood veins on these vines were actually emitting a strange red light!

The moment they drilled out, they spun and entangled together, turning into a huge drill bit and stabbing towards Xu Xin!

This attack method! It is the attack method of the copper treasure chest guardian beast!

Xu Xin raised his hand and fired a crossbow at the group of vines.

The crossbow arrow pierced the tip of the drill bit, only slightly hindering the attack of the vines.

The Silver King's speed, which had already reached its limit, suddenly increased, and the vines brushed past the Silver King's tail.

"Crack!" The vines drilled into the ground, directly making a big hole in the ground, and even collided head-on with its own kind that was originally going to drill out from that position!

The drill bit was instantly raised, and Xu Xin took a quick glance and saw that the few poor vines that were about to come out of the hole had been broken, and the remaining half was shrinking back in a gray manner.

…Poor thing.

In a flash, countless vines emerged from behind him. The blood-thorn vines swung towards the Silver King's body and legs, while most of the blood-patterned vines gathered together and attacked Xu Xin!

At this time, Mimi took action. It let out an angry cry, turned around and struck the blood-thorn vine that was swinging at it with its claws.

The vine was instantly torn into pieces by its mutant cheetah claws, but Mimi was one step slower than the Silver King because of this action.

The new vines that emerged from behind the Silver King, together with the previous vines, surrounded Mimi.

"Mimi!" Xu Xin fired another crossbow towards that side.

It turned out that he was overly worried. A flash of orange-red lightning shot out from the gap in the vines, and even crushed several vines around it.

But there were also several bloodstains on Mimi's body.

At this moment, Xu Xin discovered that the blood patterns on Mimi's body were glowing blood red, just like the vines that emerged from the ground!

Xu Xin immediately looked at the Silver King who was running as fast as he could below him, and saw that the blood patterns on the Silver King's body were also glowing red!

No wonder, no wonder the Silver King was running as fast as he could just now, but he suddenly sped up and avoided the attack of the vines.

This red mist can actually enhance the abilities of mutant beasts!

All these things happened in just a few seconds, and the Silver King had already run more than a hundred meters.

With experience, and the amplification of Silver King and Mimi's abilities, the remaining half of the journey was very easy to handle.

The Silver King only needs to charge forward, while Mimi is responsible for dealing with the vines that may attack Xu Xin and the Silver King, and then using extremely fast bursts of speed to dodge the attacks of the vines.

"Puff!" A man and three beasts emerged from the red fog and ran forward for dozens of meters before stopping.

The Silver King was fine, as it had great endurance, and running a few hundred meters was not even considered a warm-up.

But Mimi, who was just responsible for dealing with the vines behind her, was so tired that she was breathing heavily, and there were traces of blood on her body.

In the past ten seconds, it burst out with its maximum speed at least five times to avoid the blockade of vines. Even so, the blockade of dozens or hundreds of vines was basically without any corners and was not so easy to dodge. Its body was also scratched by the blood-thorn vines, leaving blood marks.

At the same time, it had to use its sharp claws to kill the vines that might hurt Xu Xin, and it attacked at its maximum speed, causing it to be basically exhausted. It lay on its side on the ground, so tired that it stuck out its tongue like a puppy, with its chest heaving.

"Mimi!" Xu Xin quickly got off Silver King's back, walked to Mimi, pulled apart its fur, and checked the depth of the wound.

Fortunately, at least the bones and internal organs were not injured, and it could be considered a relatively serious flesh wound. Blood was slowly oozing out of the wound, and it needed to be stopped quickly.

This time, Mimi didn't avoid Xu Xin's touch, either because she was too tired to move or because she had already accepted Xu Xin. Xu Xin got his wish and touched the big cat for the first time.

Mimi's hair is really smooth and soft... No, I have to take care of its wound quickly!

Xu Xin directly took out a blue-level hemostatic grass, ground it with two stones, and gently applied it on Mimi's wound.

The bat landed on one side, and Silver King came forward to lick Mimi's wound, which had not yet been covered with hemostatic grass. Coco stood in front of Mimi's head and touched Mimi's head, which was bigger than his body, with his little paw.

The hemostatic herb is effective immediately. The wound where Mimi had the hemostatic herb applied was healing at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the cat also made a comfortable meow.

Several very deep wounds healed quickly with the help of hemostatic grass, but there were a few missing hairs that needed to grow back slowly.

The rest of the wounds were very shallow, basically skin injuries, and Mimi's self-healing ability was relatively strong. There was already a tendency for scabbing and self-healing, so Xu Xin used green-level hemostatic grass to apply it on it.

Mimi, whose injuries had basically healed, pushed itself up from the ground and stood up, but it still looked very tired and needed a rest.

"Okay Mimi, lie down for a while. We're not leaving yet. I have something else to do." Xu Xin touched Mimi's head tentatively. Mimi tilted her head slightly but did not dodge.

It really lets you touch it!

Mimi sat down next to the tree, and Xu Xin looked at the red mist.

Those vines showed no signs of shrinking back, but instead danced wildly in the red fog, with some even attacking each other, like a miniature version of the underworld.

Just now when Mimi killed the vines, the reminder of increasing points kept lingering in his ears.

Kill the blood-veined vines and get points: 20 points

Kill the blood thorn vines and get points: 25 points

Now these vines won't retract, and there are still so many of them, and they won't come out of the red mist to attack...

Isn’t this a great place to earn points
