"I have no problem. In fact, I have already promised Li Wenxi to go to her place."
"… You two really do have a special relationship."
"It's okay, but do you know where Qi Xuefei is? Why don't you go help Qi Xuefei and I'll help Li Wenxi."
"Are you... providing targeted support? That's not a big problem, but I mainly want everyone to meet. We've never really met, so I always feel like something is missing when we work together. Also, we can meet and talk in detail about the special abilities."
"It seems you've noticed it, too. We're too close."
"Well, people with special abilities are indeed too close together. Perhaps there is something special nearby."
Something special
The hilly resource area emerged in Xu Xin's mind, and he thought of the hill that looked like a huge mouth of an abyss.
"See you tomorrow. If you have time, I will take you to a place within my protected area. It's very special and you might find something there." He said to Ji Chaoyang.
"Oh? I have a special place here too, and I want you to come and see it."
He actually has it too. It seems that there are still many things in this world that they need to explore.
"Then let's go and take a look. We all have mounts anyway, so it's not a big deal. There are so many strange things around here." Xu Xin said.
"Okay. By the way, I have already told other people on the regional channel about our idea, and their responses have been quite good. Many people have volunteered to come to our reserve and ask for our protection."
Ji Chaoyang's words did not surprise Xu Xin. Wasn't everything they had done before just for now
A guide will be released for every event, and the last event took so much effort that it saved almost everyone.
Their image has long been very positive in the minds of other survivors in the same area, and it is very normal that some people are willing to entrust their lives to them.
"In that case, tomorrow we should be able to bring back the survivors in the same area who are willing to follow us. However," Xu Xin reminded, "we must be careful when stepping out of the protected area. The protected areas of other tree houses are not as large as the protected areas of our two tree houses. It is very likely that the protected areas are not connected."
"... I was just about to remind you of this." Ji Chaoyang smiled.
"Haha, then I'll go to the Explorers and ask them about their meeting tomorrow."
"good."
After hanging up the voice, Xu Xin immediately said on the Explorer: "Wen Xi, Sister Xue Fei, tomorrow, Ji Chaoyang and I will meet you all. It's just right that the two of us can help you clean up the surroundings."
Li Wenxi: "Do you want to meet together? Sure!"
Qi Xuefei: "That's fine with me, but how do we meet? Where do we have to meet?"
Ji Chaoyang: "No need, Xu Xin and I both have mounts, we can just go find you directly."
Qi Xuefei: "Mount? Then I'll be waiting for you. Oh, I was just worrying about how to solve the surrounding problems. Since you guys are coming, I'll leave it to you."
Xu Xin: "Do you remember the direction of the two light spots?"
Qi Xuefei: "Remember, they are in the south, um, one is due south, and the other is southwest."
Xu Xin calculated. Well, it should be to the north of Li Wenxi. Because he was to the west of Li Wenxi.
Xu Xin: "Okay, I understand. Wait for us to come over tomorrow."
Li Wenxi: "Great! I'm finally going to meet Sister Xuefei!"
Qi Xuefei: "You are looking forward to meeting Xu Xin, right?"
Li Wenxi: "No! I'm looking forward to it. I'm looking forward to meeting you all!"
Wang Lei: "Oh my god, I'm so jealous... Why am I not near there..."
Xu Xin suddenly thought that since the masters on his side were all working together, maybe Wang Lei and his team were also working together.
So he said, "The other five of you are surrounded by survivors from Area 189, right? Although they are not in the same place as us, you may be very close to each other. You can try to look for them tomorrow."
Zhao Xiaochuan: "Is this true? We are so close? That's great! I'm fed up with single-player survival!"
Ji Chaoyang: "You two are very likely to be very close. You can find each other's positions, but be careful of the survivors nearby. They may also be very strong."
Qin Yunlong: "Then let's try to find it tomorrow. I feel like my brother and I are not far away."
Wen Guixin: "Why are there five of us, all of us are men... And Sister Xuefei and Wenxi have occupied the two most handsome ones, while on my side, it's all men, wuwuwu..."
Qin Yunhu: “?”
Qin Yunlong: “?”
Zhao Xiaochuan: “?”
Wang Lei: "? What do you mean? I'm very handsome, okay?"
Xu Xin held back his laughter and shook his head, no longer paying attention to the explorer.
But he did not go to rest, but came to the art room.
Although the upper limit of green-level crystal carving has been reached, green-level paintings and mahogany carvings can still increase the degree of decoration.
Before going to bed, draw a few pictures to add some decoration and try to increase the success rate of alchemy as soon as possible.
After eating an orange, Xu Xin brought his spirit to the peak. He manipulated the paintbrush and immersed himself completely in it.
Soon, more than an hour passed.
Looking at the five paintings in front of him, he nodded with satisfaction.
All of his paintings were landscapes, including a three-story tall tree house, the chaos of demons in the underground world, the strange hills in the hilly area, the thunder tornado in the rainy season, and the mutant plant heart wrapped in vines.
These are the scenes that have left the deepest impression on him since he came to this world.
Each of the five paintings increased the decoration level of the tree house by 10 points. Combined with his 20% increase, in just over an hour, his tree house had increased its decoration level by another 60 points.
Although the increase was rapid, Xu Xin was still worried.
Now, his green-level crystal engraving has reached the upper limit, and there are already seven paintings in the room. According to the rules, ten paintings should be the peak.
He originally thought that his decoration points were sufficient, after all, he had much more than others. But he did not expect that an alchemy ability would appear, and the alchemy room really required too much decoration points.
Now, the things he could refine through alchemy, such as potions, enhancements, and coordinates, were all blue-level. However, the success rate was only 50%, and 500 points of decoration were required to ensure that there would be no failure. If he refined purple-level, the success rate would definitely be lower, which would be an even greater loophole that could not be filled.
Fortunately, he can now create blue-level works, but this also involves a problem. His speed of creating blue-level artworks is too slow. So, should he add the current decoration level to the art room or the alchemy room
This is how he now increases the functional areas.
Bedroom: 1%
Art Room: 100%
Planting house: 50%
Alchemy Room: 60%
Production room: 100%
The Art Room is already 100%, which is enough for green-level artworks for now. The increase in the Alchemy Room is too small, and we need to add more.
It’s better not to sleep tonight.
Spend the night relying on oranges and apricots, and first improve the decoration level!
His plantation is growing very fast now, and the blue-level fruits he plants will mature in no time, so there is no need to save them.
Come on, all-nighter!
Xu Xin ate an apricot, gradually recovered his strength, and continued painting.
When he finished the tenth painting, as expected, the reminder sounded.
The number of paintings (green) in the tree house has reached the upper limit. Adding more paintings will not increase the decoration level.
Now, his house is complete with ten green-level carvings and ten paintings.
Xu Xin took a piece of green-grade mahogany and prepared to start carving it.
The feeling of mahogany carving is different from that of crystal carving. Crystal is very small, belonging to fine small carving, and mahogany is very thick, belonging to large carving. The carving knives used are different. Fortunately, Xu Xin originally made a carving tool set, which contains tools to meet all carving needs.
After eating oranges and apricots again to replenish his mental and physical strength which were about to end, Xu Xin fixed the mahogany wood, picked up the carving knife, immersed his mind in it, and quickly carved on the entire mahogany wood.
Wood chips flew everywhere, and many even flew into his face and mouth, but he didn't care and continued to swing the carving knife. If someone was watching nearby, they would be very surprised, because his hands were so fast that they could hardly be seen clearly.
In just a quarter of an hour, a statue of Xu Xin himself, almost as tall as his own, appeared in front of him.
very nice!
Green-level mahogany statues, like other green-level resources that increase the decorative degree, all increase the decorative degree by 10 points. Xu Xin carved seven mahogany statues in a row and then stopped.
Wow, there are so many statues, all of them are almost as tall as humans, and they are surrounded in the art room, giving it a horror house atmosphere.
Just as Orange's mental enhancement wore off, a strong sense of sleepiness came over him.
What's going on? Isn't it equivalent to a rest while the orange effect lasts
He lowered his heavy head, thought about it, and suddenly understood.
Eating oranges can increase your mental strength to its peak, and the duration is indeed equivalent to rest, but it is only equivalent to two hours of rest, which is completely unable to make up for the mental strength consumed by carving so many statues.
Therefore, once the effect wore off, the accumulated mental fatigue would directly engulf him.
"… It seems that I should do less of this kind of thing in the future." Xu Xin muttered to himself while covering his aching head.
During this period, he drew a total of eight paintings and seven mahogany sculptures, which increased the decoration level by a total of 150 points, an increase of 20%, or 180 points.
His total decoration level has now reached 491 points.
He added 140% to the Alchemy Room and 40% to the Art Room.
In this way, the increase in his functional area has been completely renewed.
Bedroom: 1%
Art room: 140%
Planting house: 50%
Alchemy Room: 200%
Production room: 100%
The alchemy room reached 200%, increasing the success rate by 20%, bringing the success rate of making coordinates to 70%! Combined with the luck bonus of the koi, it should not be a problem to reach an actual success rate of 80%.
I feel like I can gamble now.
Xu Xin looked at the time and it was already past two in the morning.
It's better for him to go and have some rest. He has important things to do tomorrow, especially he has to meet other people. It's not appropriate to continue using the effect of oranges all night. He is too tired now.
In the living room, Yin Wang and Mimi had already fallen asleep. When Xu Xin passed by, Mimi raised her eyes again alertly, and when she saw it was Xu Xin, she closed them again.
After touching Mimi’s big head, Xu Xin simply washed up and returned to the bedroom.
Coco had already fallen asleep on the bed.
Xu Xin also lay down on the bed and gradually fell into a deep sleep.
