"Wow, a blood-veined vine actually has 30 points! I killed two with this arrow, and my points increased by 60 points!" Li Wenxi's eyes lit up, "This is too easy to get points!"

The Blood Veined Vine had fewer points than the Blood Thorn Vine before, only 10 points. Now it has 30 points, and it has also become much stronger.

"This is not easy. Only we can do this. Others don't have the explosive crossbow." Xu Xin took out a halberd and drew the two blood-marked vines that fell outside the protected area into the protected area.

Unlike the Survivor, the Halberd will not attract the attention of underground creatures.

"It seems they can also make burning arrows?"

"Burning arrows can indeed kill them, but..." Ji Chaoyang looked at the fallen leaves and hay, as well as the bare trees, "but the jungle will have to be buried with it."

"Indeed. Um... Actually, I've been thinking about a question," Li Wenxi pointed at the jungle and said, "If someone really started a fire, would the fire continue to spread? If so, then if someone from other areas comes over and sets a fire here, wouldn't that mean..."

"Maybe there will be protective measures?" Ji Chaoyang thought for a moment and said, "Otherwise, if one person starts a fire, it won't just be in one area, it may even spread to all areas."

"Many of them used torches for lighting. Maybe someone had started a fire before. Since it didn't spread, maybe there really is some kind of protection mechanism." Xu Xin said, picking up a vine.

"Well, no matter what, let's use the explosive crossbow. Even if a fire occurs, it will be easy to put out!" Li Wenxi said, raising the crossbow in his hand.

Xu Xin cut a hole in the vine and continued to collect the juice. He smiled at Li Wenxi and said, "It's all thanks to you. If you hadn't found saltpeter, we wouldn't have been able to make the explosive crossbow."

"Really? Hehe..." Li Wenxi smiled sheepishly, "I was really lucky that time. I actually found the saltpeter by chance next to the black gold mine. It has nothing to do with my ability."

This was the first time that Li Wenxi talked about her abilities. Before, she just ignored it and changed the subject.

"Your ability has something to do with metal, right?"

"Yeah." Li Wenxi nodded. Seeing that Xu Xin wanted to ask more questions, he waved his hand and said, "Let's not talk about this for now. It's a bit complicated and hard to explain. Let's talk about abilities in detail after we meet Sister Xuefei!"

"Qi Xuefei..." Xu Xin looked at the green in the distance. It would be really troublesome to go find her.

"Let me help you deal with the hidden dangers in other directions first, and then go find her." Xu Xin said to Li Wenxi.

At this time, Ji Chaoyang suddenly spoke: "Why don't you go deal with the threat in the south, and I'll deal with the east. We'll act separately. I'll also take a look at whether there is any connection in the east, and try to go around it from the east."

If we act separately, we will be more efficient.

Moreover, Ji Chaoyang doesn’t want to be with these two people now. He feels like a light bulb and it’s a bit awkward.

"That's good, it's more efficient this way, but..." Xu Xin looked at Li Wenxi.

"Don't worry, if there is someone here, both the person and the tree house are hers." Ji Chaoyang understood what Xu Xin meant and responded immediately.

"Ah? No, no, that's not necessary. You guys come to help me deal with the danger, how can I take the benefits? Besides, I don't have the confidence to manage the people in other areas. I will just accept some volunteers from the same area." Li Wenxi waved his hands, "You can deal with the tree houses and people in other areas around here yourselves."

"If there really is a living person, that would be a tree house core, a purple-level resource." Xu Xin couldn't help but remind her.

Moreover, Li Wenxi was actually the one who needed people from other regions the most, so he abducted them and forced them to work. There were probably not many people who volunteered to do mining and smelting, especially since they were between 18 and 30 years old, so even fewer would volunteer.

"Hey, I'm different from you. I use production tools for mining. Blue-level tools can mine purple-level resources." Li Wenxi raised his head and patted his chest, and his steel armor made a crisp sound. "Currently, I haven't even dug out purple-level resources, so I don't need more advanced tools at all. As for weapons and armor, the ones you gave me are already very powerful!"

Xu Xin and Ji Chaoyang looked at each other. They really didn't expect Li Wenxi to be so selfless.

"Well... let's see if there are any living people around. By the way, I have already told Qi Xuefei in the explorer and asked her to go out and see by herself which direction there are tree houses around and which are connected to the protected area." Ji Chaoyang pointed to his watch and said.

Xu Xin glanced at the Explorer, which had become lively because of Ji Chaoyang's words.

Especially the other five people, after knowing that the three of them had met, and that the survivors in the same area could really be identified, they were all discussing each other's locations, whether there were any landmarks, and planning to meet in the next two days.

It seems that these people are fed up and don't want to survive alone anymore, especially Wen Guixin. Although she said that she disliked those four men, she actually shared more information than anyone else.

Qi Xuefei also said that she could see greenery more than ten kilometers away on both sides of her, and there should be tree houses there, but there were none on the north and south sides. She now plans to go to the west to see if the reserve is connected.

Are there both the east and west sides

"She doesn't have a mount, so she has to rely on her to check the surroundings... With her fighting ability, won't something go wrong?" Xu Xin frowned.

It's not like he hadn't thought about letting Qi Xuefei check it out herself, but she didn't have a mount and was running around everywhere, not to mention her slow speed. What if she ran into a strong man who was exploring the opposite area...

Qi Xuefei's own combat power was probably not strong, and he didn't want anything to happen to the doctor in their team. According to Lou Feier, the top ten strong men in District 187 had already received a notice from their boss Zhang Daoguang, and they would most likely kill anyone they saw, just like Lou Feier did.

"You underestimate the survivors who have survived until now. Although her combat power may be much weaker than yours, she is still much stronger than other survivors." Ji Chaoyang smiled helplessly, "She has survived until now on her own. In the previous hunting activities, she was also in the top 20. At least, our weapons and armor are first-class."

Xu Xin thought about it and felt that what Ji Chaoyang said made sense.

Judging from Lou Feier's equipment, there should be no one in Area 187 who can make metal weapons and armor, or there are some but they don't sell them to others. At the same time, they don't have rich women like Li Wenxi who can find saltpeter mines, so naturally they can't make explosive crossbows. The equipment alone is far behind them.

"Well... I was in the top ten..." Li Wenxi pointed at his nose and said a little embarrassedly, "But my fighting power is not strong now, right?"

Xu Xin pointed at the crossbow in Li Wenxi's hand and said with a smile: "With just the crossbow in your hand, coupled with the explosive crossbow, you can deal with most people."

If he uses the explosive crossbow to launch a sneak attack, I'm afraid even Xu Xin might not be able to dodge it.

"Yes! Then I am still very strong. Oh, I didn't have confidence before." Li Wenxi suddenly gained confidence.

Now that I think about it, wasn’t the hunting activities back then also based on the difference in equipment

Judging from personal strength, except for top-level strongmen like Xu Xin and Ji Chaoyang who can strengthen their bodies once or twice in each activity and have random amplification, everyone is basically the same.

Except for Wen Guixin, her combat power is too outrageous, and her ability should be related to combat power.

"Qi Xuefei said that there are living tree houses on both the east and west sides of her property. After you solve the problem on the south side, go to the west side and I will go to the east. If we can enter, we will split into two groups to enter Qi Xuefei's protected area and help her solve the problems on both sides along the way." Ji Chaoyang suggested.

"West? Is that where Xu Xin's tree house is?" Li Wenxi's eyes lit up and he turned to look at Xu Xin.

"West..."

So, we can indeed try from his side, but the hope is not great. To the north and east of him are the two trees that he has transplanted. The tree house is only within the three-kilometer protection area and is likely not connected to the surrounding area.

But it's worth a look.

Seeing that Li Wenxi clearly agreed and even wanted to go, Xu Xin nodded and raised his left hand with the watch on it: "Okay, let's do this first. If there is any situation, just communicate."

"Okay, then you go to the south, and I'll go around the protected area to the east to take a look." Ji Chaoyang climbed onto the white horse.

"Can you determine the scope of the protected area?" Xu Xin was a little confused.

It’s okay in his own protected area, because when he is about to step out, there will be a warning sound to warn of the danger. But here, without a warning sound, won’t he run out

"Don't worry, my head is the map. Let's go!" Ji Chaoyang smiled and tapped his temple with his index finger, then turned around and rode away.

"Bye!" Li Wenxi waved goodbye to him.

"Good fellow, so confident?" Xu Xin looked at his back in the jungle, shook his head, and then said to Li Wenxi who was standing behind him, "Let's go too, to the south, and see if there are other people's tree houses over there."

"There should be one in the south, and it should be quite big. I feel it should be a three-story tree house like mine!" Li Wenxi recalled.

"Oh? Did you see it? A three-story tree house?" Xu Xin frowned.

A three-story tree house is a blue-level tree house.

"Did you find out this morning?"

"Well, after all the leaves in the jungle have fallen, I can clearly see the lush green over there from my tree house, just like... just like that!" Li Wenxi pointed to Qi Xuefei's tree house in the distance.

Blue-level tree house... Another top ten in District 187? Even if not, he must be one of the top ten regional masters.

Damn it, I shouldn’t have returned Lou Feier’s watch to him, otherwise he would have asked in the regional channel of District 187 if anyone had seen a light spot in the north during the rainy season. If someone answered, wouldn’t he know who it was and know the other party’s ranking and strength!

He suddenly realized that he still had a way to contact Lou Fei'er outside. Although her name was already on the regional channel of Area 188 and private chat was possible, it was connected to Parasitic Tree House 01, and now Lou Fei'er was locked in the main tree house and could not be contacted at all.

"What about the east where Ji Chaoyang went?" Xu Xin asked Li Wenxi.

"There should be some. In fact, I looked around this morning. There are green treetops in the east and south, but no green trees in the north," Li Wenxi explained. "But you said you wanted to go to the north to see if the protected areas are connected. Since we were coming anyway, I didn't mention it."

"Then his tree house over there is..."

"It should be an ordinary tree house, very ordinary and short. When I looked at it, it seemed to have only one floor." Li Wenxi chuckled and moved closer to him, whispering, "Otherwise I wouldn't want him to take it away. If I really want to give it away, I might as well give it to you. This three-story tree house in the south is yours! I don't want to waste my energy trying to conquer people from other areas!"

"You..." Xu Xin shook his head helplessly.

She has to change her mind. How can the miners' leader be so kind and lazy
