Ignoring the three noisy little guys, Xu Xin glanced out the window, and after making sure that there was nothing unusual, he sat down on the sofa with his whole body relaxed.
Inside the Explorer.
Li Wenxi: "I lit the fire circle too! It's so powerful! All the ants that rushed into the fire circle were burned to death!"
Zhao Xiaochuan: "It feels like these blood-thorn vines can burn for a long time. After burning for such a long time, the vines below have only been consumed a little bit."
Qi Xuefei: "Huh, I finally cleared all the ants in the tree house. They actually gnawed at the windows, and closing the windows couldn't stop them from coming in. Fortunately, they don't eat medicinal herbs."
Qin Yunlong: "The third floor is really too difficult to deal with. All my windows on the third floor were bitten off. Fortunately, I have Xu Xin's method."
Wang Lei: "The plant heart is very strong. However, some ants were still let in, and I have to deal with them myself. Should I also light a circle of fire? Anyway, I have killed a lot of blood thorn vines."
Ji Chaoyang: "No need, we can already handle the occasional leaks, there's no need to waste materials, this is mutant vine juice that can be used to make incendiary arrow explosives."
Xu Xin lay comfortably on the sofa. Ke Ke, who was tired from rolling around, climbed on top of him, yawned, lay down, and began to take a nap.
He told them his method: "You can let the vines destroy the jungle within the range, so that they can move more flexibly and organize the ant colony very easily. Just give orders from the roots."
Wang Lei: "Destroy the jungle within the range?! Isn't this... a bit too much..."
Ji Chaoyang: "Can the vines controlled by this plant heart be manipulated?"
Xu Xin briefly explained the situation on his side.
Wang Lei: "I see. If we want to make use of this area below, we will have to cut down these trees sooner or later. It would be better to let the plant heart absorb it directly!"
Ji Chaoyang: "I'll try to see if I can control these vines accurately."
Li Wenxi: "Wow, you are saying something I don't understand..."
Qi Xuefei: "This is a benefit for those who dare to go out. It has nothing to do with us."
Li Wenxi: "I dare to go out too!"
Wang Lei: "Don't do that. If Miss Wen Xi goes out wearing blue iron armor, she will be tied up in the blood thorn vines and can't get out. I am so strong that I barely managed to get out before I ran out of strength."
Wen Guixin: "Haha, I finally got rid of all the ants. A total of more than 2,300 points, not bad. I'm so tired, I'm going to sleep now."
Qin Yunhu: “?”
Wang Lei: “Ah?”
Zhao Xiaochuan: "Master Wen, please take me with you!"
Xu Xin was also a little speechless. He stood up and looked out the window again. The vines were still waving and piercing. Silver King Mimi and his beloved concubine were still killing with great pleasure, but outside the range, there were still dense ant colonies.
His current points are only a little over a thousand.
If you want to clear out such a large number of ants, it is not a matter of combat power. Silver King Mimi is also very powerful, but her killing speed is not as fast as Wen Guixin's.
She once said when she was killing the vines before that numbers were actually to her advantage.
What exactly is her ability
It would be a lie to say that I am not envious. His combat abilities are really strong. His identification ability and map ability are both auxiliary functions. I don't know when the next ability will be unlocked.
Now that everyone's problems have been solved, Xu Xin can rest assured.
Clicking on the regional channel, Xu Xin discovered that the total number of people had not decreased by even one, and was still more than 3,000 people. This showed that ants would indeed not harm the survivors. As long as the tree house could be protected from being eaten by ants, they would be able to survive this defense battle.
At this time, there were very few people talking in the regional channel. Everyone was probably busy dealing with the ants that entered the tree house, and only a few people were reporting on their battle results.
"Finally killed them all... ah, they got in again!"
“It’s really tiring to run up and down the floors!”
"Haha, I only have one floor. I just sit there with a bow and arrow, and shoot any ants that come in. It's simple."
These ants will only attack the tree house if they crawl inside it, so people living in single-story tree houses are the easiest to deal with.
Their tree house is less than 30 square meters in size, so they don't have to go up and down the stairs to deal with ants on different floors. It is really convenient to use bows and crossbows while sitting. When the arrows are used up, they can just collect them and continue.
But for survivors in two-story tree houses, or those like Xu Xin who live in three or four-story tree houses, it would be too chaotic to rely on their own attacks. For example, if an ant crawled in, Xu Xin would have to go up and down the fourth floor to deal with it. If he was alone, he would be exhausted.
In other words, the lower the level of the tree house, the easier it is to deal with the ant colony.
Then he shouldn't need to do anything next, just wait for the event to end.
Xu Xin picked up Coco, who was sleeping soundly on his abdomen, and put her on the sofa.
This little guy hadn't slept well since last night because of the mutated plant heart underground. Now that he was safe, he slept very soundly. Even when Xu Xin held him, he just whimpered softly and smacked his lips.
Xu Xin came to the study, picked up the carving knife and started carving.
With the bonus of deepwater pearls and the fact that he had carved many times before, this time the carving was very smooth and he was becoming more and more proficient at it.
A giant pangolin amethyst statue (green) is detected in the tree house. The decoration level of the tree house is +10. The current decoration level of the tree house is 166.4.
In half an hour, a statue of the beloved concubine was completed.
I stood up and looked out the window. There were only a few ants left. As if in a final frenzy, the few remaining ants regrouped and launched a final attack on the tree house.
Silver King and Mimi were still killing non-stop, and they didn't seem tired at all. Ai Fei had stopped, probably because she was full. She lay down about 80 to 90 meters away from the tree house, watching the fight between Silver King and Mimi.
The scales on its body have been completely repaired, and under the moonlight, they reflect a clear light and look incredibly beautiful.
It looks like it will take some time, so let's carve another statue.
Xu Xin picked up the carving knife again.
In half an hour, a sculpture of two little pangolins rolling around in each other's arms was completed.
A pangolin twin green crystal statue (green) is detected in the tree house. The decoration degree of the tree house is +10. The current decoration degree of the tree house is 176.4.
Xu Xin stretched and rubbed his tired head. He didn't plan to eat oranges to replenish his energy. If the problem was solved, he should have a good sleep tonight.
"Awooo—" the Silver King's cry sounded under the tree house.
He looked out the window and found that there was no trace of ants around and the vines had retracted into the ground.
All the ants were wiped out by the attacks of the vines and the three beasts.
He took another look at his current points, which had increased by more than 2,400 points, 0.2 points per ant. In other words, in these few hours, more than 12,000 mutant ants died around his tree house.
… That’s a lot.
Xu Xin went down from the tree house and came to a range of 100 meters away. There were many ant corpses that were blown far away by the vines. Because they were too far to reach, they were not absorbed.
He tried to break it down with a boning knife, but didn't get any material.
It seemed that these ants were here just to give away points. Throwing the cut ant bodies to the ground, Xu Xin returned to the tree house.
Mimi lay on the ground panting. This was a huge test of its endurance. It was so excited when it was invincible among the ants, but when it stopped, Mimi instantly wilted and was too tired to stand up.
The Silver King was fine, still standing there majestically. It would have been even more handsome if there wasn't some transparent ant mucus on its mouth.
The beloved concubine kept looking at him and even scratched his clothes with her claws.
"Ah." Xu Xin understood. He took Mimi and Silver King back to the tree house first, and then brought down the two little pangolins who were still full of energy and playing.
The beloved concubine cried out and returned to the cave with the two children.
…The tree house is no better than this cave, why don’t Ah Fu and Ai Fei like living in the tree house
Shaking his head, Xu Xin returned to the tree house again. Mimi and Yin Wang were already asleep in the corner.
Coco on the sofa was nowhere to be found. When Xu Xin returned to the dormitory, he found that Coco had been lying on the bed with its arms and legs spread out, occupying his place.
After carrying Coco aside, Xu Xin was ready to take a rest. The two carvings just now had consumed most of his energy.
At this moment, his watch vibrated. It turned out to be a video call from Li Wenxi.
"Xu Xin! Why do you want me to do logistics? I'm so tired. I just sorted all those things." Li Wenxi spoke as soon as the video was connected. She leaned against the back of a wooden chair with a look of despair.
"Haha, don't they all say that you are good at logistics allocation? Those who are capable should do more work." Xu Xin felt a little embarrassed. She had told him more than once before that she was lazy.
"It's because I was always ordered to do this kind of thing during my freshman year that I don't want to do it." Li Wenxi rolled his eyes slightly, then turned the camera to the other side, where there were rows of green-level backpacks. "I finally packed it."
"It has been classified. It will be convenient in the future. Any incoming supplies will be handed over to you directly. Besides, everything is with you, so you can use it as you like." Xu Xin said with a smile.
"Hmph, they are just basic supplies. I have enough of them. But if they want basic supplies, they have to ask me for them. It's so troublesome. But never mind. I should help the organization." Li Wenxi twisted his neck and stood up.
Judging from the video, this floor should be used specifically for storing supplies, with shelves and backpacks everywhere.
"By the way, how are the ants over there?" Xu Xin asked.
"Well, there aren't many left. Actually, not many can break through the blood thorn vines. They wipe out a large area with one sweep." Li Wenxi went downstairs and sat down on the sofa. "Those who came in were also burned to ashes by the circle of fire I lit."
"The fire circle is still burning?"
"Yeah, it's very resistant to fire, and I don't know when it will stop."
The two chatted for a few more sentences and then hung up the video. Xu Xin also lay down on the bed and closed his eyes.
After a tiring day, it's time to take a rest. Nothing should happen again. If something does happen, Ah Fu will call you.
…
Xu Xin was awakened by the mysterious voice again.
The battle to defend the tree house is over, and the tree house will immediately eliminate the threats in the protected area.
The tree house has been upgraded successfully! Congratulations to all the survivors. From today on, your survival rate will be greatly improved!
After the upgrade, the protection range of the tree house has been expanded by three kilometers, and the protection capability has been greatly enhanced.
At the same time, this tree house upgrade has added new production blueprints and functions for all survivors. Please go to the tree house host to view them.
The special list for this event has been released, and everyone on the list will receive a special reward.
He sat up in bed, rubbing his eyes, which had regained normal vision, and thinking about the information in the previous passage.
Will the tree house protection area be expanded by three kilometers
The thing he had been looking forward to but also worried about was about to happen.
The protection range of his tree house must overlap with the protection range of other surrounding tree houses. If nothing unexpected happens, as long as he is willing to look for it, he may be able to see the tree houses of other survivors today.
However, what are the new production blueprints and functions
He turned his head slightly, and saw Coco still dozing off. This little guy went to bed earlier than him, woke up later than him, and was still so sleepy every day.
Just as I was about to open my watch to check out the new features, a reminder sound rang in my ear.
The tree house decoration degree is detected to be greater than 100, and today's random enhancement is obtained: hearing enhancement, the effect lasts for one day.
Suddenly, Coco's snoring, the breathing of Yin Wang and Mimi in the living room, the beating of plants' hearts, the rustling of leaves in the wind, the chirping of insects and birds, countless sounds rang in his ears, making his mind instantly clear.
Is this what Ji Chaoyang was able to do yesterday? That’s pretty good!
Just a bit noisy.
Now that the tree house has been upgraded, you should now know the true function of decoration, right
But before he could recover from his new ability of enhanced hearing, the voice rang out again.
