This scene reminded him of the iron room below the entrance to the underground world, where the person inside fell down when he touched him, resulting in a skeleton shattered all over the floor.
At that time, Coco rolled the skull around as if it were a ball, which scared him.
Does this little guy want to play with the spherical object when he sees it
But playing with your brain is too...
Li Wenxi didn't care whether she was scared or not. She ran over quickly, picked up Coco, took out a small bottle of water from her backpack, and started washing Coco's paws.
"Hmm?" Coco was picked up and washed with clean water again, with a head full of question marks.
Qi Xuefei, who was standing by, looked at the scene in amazement at first, then couldn't help laughing out loud: "Haha, Xu Xin, your little pet has the same strong taste as you."
"When did I have a strong taste?" Xu Xin said helplessly. This little guy is simply ruining his reputation.
Looking at Coco who was carried back by Li Wenxi, Xu Xin tapped Coco's little head lightly.
“Boo!” Coco covered her head with her little paws and protested, “Boo, boo, boo!”
"Really? How could you do such a thing?" Li Wenxi rubbed Coco's little paws clean and tapped Coco's forehead. "Don't do such things in the future. Got it?"
“Hmm…” Keke seemed a little disappointed and buried her head in Li Wenxi’s arms.
"Okay, don't be disappointed. I'll make you a ball to play with in the future." Xu Xin smoothed the fur on Coco's back and said with some amusement.
"嘤!" Coco was no longer disappointed. She nodded her little head towards Xu Xin and wagged her big tail.
Qi Xuefei looked at the cute little guy, feeling a little envious, and asked, "Can I touch it?"
Before Xu Xin and Li Wenxi could say anything, Keke suddenly slid onto Li Wenxi's back, revealing her little head, and said in an obvious resistance: "Bah!"
"It seems that it won't work." Xu Xin spread his hands, "It's shy. This is the first day you met, it will definitely not let you touch it."
"This is also the first day you and Wen Xi met."
"That's different." Li Wenxi lifted Keke from his back to his arms, touched Keke's belly, and explained, "I video chat with Xu Xin every day, and Keke can see me every time. He has been familiar with me for a long time! Isn't that right, Keke?"
"Hmm~"
Qi Xuefei's expression became a little intriguing, and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth: "You video chat every day, why do I remember you told me before that you two only communicated by text message and occasionally said a few words by voice?"
"Ah?" Li Wenxi blushed and her eyes wandered, "What do you mean by video chatting every day? Didn't I just say we video chat every day?"
"Haha, okay, once you get familiar with Coco, it should let you touch it." Xu Xin also touched Coco's big tail in Li Wenxi's arms, and then said to the two of them, "Okay, stay away. I'm going to blast the bottom of this tree house open with an explosive crossbow."
“Do we have to blast it open?” Li Wenxi looked up at the tree house. Indeed, if it wasn’t blasted open, it would be impossible to get in.
Holding Coco, the two retreated to a place about ten meters away from the tree house. Xu Xin also moved a little further away, loaded an explosive crossbow on the crossbow, aimed at the bottom of the tree house, and pulled the trigger.
"boom!"
An explosion sounded from beneath the tree house.
When the smoke cleared, Xu Xin frowned as he looked towards the bottom of the tree house.
The bottom layer of canopy leaves had been blown away, revealing the wooden outer floor of the tree house.
The entire floor was surprisingly barely damaged, with only some traces left by the explosion.
"How is it? Did it explode?" Li Wenxi asked from more than ten meters away.
"No, I'll try again."
Xu Xin loaded another explosive crossbow and pulled the trigger at the place where the explosion had just occurred.
"boom!"
This time, wood chips flew everywhere and the effect was pretty good, but it was not very strong and only affected a relatively shallow area.
"Huh? This tree house... is so hard?"
The explosive crossbow can directly blow down a poplar tree that is several dozen centimeters thick. It has enormous power, so why is the damage it causes to the tree house so little
Xu Xin suddenly remembered that when he and Lou Feier were fighting in Parasitic Tree House 02, they also used explosive crossbows. The damage caused to the inner walls of the tree house at that time was much greater than this time.
Is it because the outside is harder
Or is it that the defense of a parasitic tree house is weaker than that of a normal tree house
Xu Xin put away the crossbow.
He thought that the explosive crossbow could explode with one or two shots, but since it couldn't, he might as well use his halberd directly.
"What's wrong? Can't it be blown up?" Li Wenxi asked from behind.
"Well, I'll try it with the halberd."
The halberd is three meters long, and the bottom of the low tree house is only three meters. Holding the halberd, Xu Xin can easily draw a circle at the bottom of the tree house and open the bottom.
He aimed the spear at the bottom of the tree house and with a "click" sound, the spear pierced into the floor.
It was fairly easy, but not as easy as the last time when I was hacking around in Parasitic Tree House 02 and could easily split the walls.
Moreover, he now has increased strength, which is much greater than when he met Lou Feier.
From this point of view, the defense of a normal tree house seems to be stronger than that of a parasitic tree house. However, a parasitic tree house can be repaired and regenerated infinitely, and each has its own advantages.
Xu Xin exerted force with his wrists and arms, and the sharp side blade of the halberd slowly moved in circles at the bottom of the tree house.
Seeing that Xu Xin no longer used the explosive crossbow, the two of them also walked over.
"Your halberd is so sharp. Is it made of steel?" Qi Xuefei was a little surprised to see the halberd cutting circles at the bottom of the tree house like cutting tofu.
"Purple-grade steel weapons are the strongest even among purple-grade ones. Be careful!" Xu Xin reminded and took two steps back.
He had already cut a circle, and then a circular tree house floor about 30 centimeters thick shook twice and fell directly down, hitting the ground with a "bang".
"Ying!" Coco jumped out of Li Wenxi's arms, crawled along the tree trunk in two or three steps, entered the hole, and entered the tree house.
Xu Xin also took two steps back, ran to speed up, pushed up on the tree trunk twice, held the edge of the hole in the tree house floor with both hands, and with a force, he entered the tree house.
Finally got in.
It is really difficult to enter this tree house without the owner's permission.
This was just an ordinary green-level tree house. If it was a blue-level tree house, it would be seven meters above the ground. Without more advanced weapons, I really don't know how to get in. If it was a purple-level tree house like his, it would be even more difficult.
"I want to go up and take a look too!"
Li Wenxi also imitated Xu Xin and nimbly stepped into the tree house in two steps.
After all, she is someone who has strengthened her body many times in this world. Besides, she exercises regularly and her physical ability is pretty good.
Qi Xuefei didn't have the physical ability to do so, but she wasn't interested in the interior of the tree house, so she didn't go in. She shouted at the hole at the bottom of the tree house, "I'm not going in. Get the core and come out. Ji Chaoyang is still waiting for us."
"Got it!" Li Wenxi replied.
At this time, Xu Xin was looking at a device.
After he entered the tree house, he searched inside and finally found a device he had never seen before by the window on the second floor.
Coco had already run to the windowsill at this time. Seeing Xu Xin coming up, she immediately called out "嘤" and asked him to come over.
This device is somewhat similar to a music conductor's podium. Two wooden poles as thick as arms are fixed to the floor of the tree house. Above the wooden poles is a thick stone slab that is flat at the bottom and slanted at the top. A screen is embedded in the stone slab. This should be the control panel that Ma Hongyu just mentioned.
Xu Xin was a little surprised that the panel did not have the various buttons like the operating console he had imagined.
Xu Xin touched the screen which had gone black.
Tree House External Weapon Control Panel (Blue): It can connect the control panels of all tree house external weapons, so that all external weapons can be controlled on the panel.
Sure enough! Can control all external weapons! Connect all external weapons!
Looking at this introduction, could it be that those heavy crossbows are not special, and all weapons can be controlled just by relying on this one panel
Xu Xin tried to touch and activate the screen, but it didn't respond at all.
Can't open.
He tried a few more times, but it didn't work.
At this time, Li Wenxi also walked to his side, looked at the device, and said, "It should be impossible to control it, right? I just tried to activate the big screen in the tree house, but it didn't work."
"The screen below can't be turned on either..." Xu Xin touched his chin.
It seems that only the owner of the tree house can operate these devices inside the tree house. No one else can operate them. Similarly, the parasitic tree house is the same. Except for the owner of the main tree house and the owner of the parasitic tree house, no one else can operate it.
This is a self-protection ability of the tree house.
good.
He was still a little worried that when there were more parasitic tree houses in the future, people from other areas would break in to do things like collect information, use the trading platform in Area 188 to search for supplies, etc. Now it seems that he was worrying too much.
Xu Xin tried again to remove the control panel, but it was directly connected to the ground, just like the fireplace in the tree house. It could only be destroyed and could not be taken away.
"Forget it, let's see if there is anything in this house that we can take away, then dig out the core of the tree house, and gather at Qi Xuefei's tree house. Ji Chaoyang should have arrived." Xu Xin took a last look at the panel.
The two searched the entire tree house. There was basically nothing in the two-story tree house, except for some green-level resources that they had so many of, that they would take up too much weight in their backpacks.
"This guy is too poor..." Li Wenxi said speechlessly. She wanted to enjoy the joy of looting, but in the end she got nothing, not even a decoration purchased from the points mall.
"There's nothing we can do. They are just ordinary survivors, not like us." Xu Xin didn't have much hope in the first place, but this was within his expectations.
"Bing!"
Coco ran to the center of the tree house one step ahead, scratched the ground twice, and made a sound, indicating that Xu Xin was there.
"Okay, let's take the core." Xu Xin walked over.
"This is the first time I've seen how to take the core! I've only heard you talk about it before!" Li Wenxi immediately stood next to Xu Xin, curiously watching how Xu Xin operated.
"The place where Coco was scratching just now is the location of the tree trunk." Xu Xin pointed to the floor in the center of the tree house. "The tree house floor can be easily chopped open with an iron axe. You can give it a try."
"Okay! Then I'll give it a try!" After hearing what Xu Xin said, Li Wenxi immediately took out her blue-level iron axe.
She found the right position, held the axe with both hands, raised the axe high, and chopped down at the floor in the center of the tree house, "Hey!"
The corners of Xu Xin's mouth curled up slightly. This action was a bit like mining with a pickaxe. She was indeed a rich lady who had been mining for a long time.
"Crack!" The floor cracked. Li Wenxi immediately struck twice with the axe. The floor finally broke, revealing the hollow tree trunk underneath.
"It's really hollow!" Li Wenxi immediately lay on the ground, poked his head to look inside, and exclaimed, "There's a glowing bead inside! That must be the core! Do you want us to jump down and get it?"
As she said this, she turned around and sat at the edge of the cave, wanting to jump in.
"No need, just let Coco go down." Xu Xin quickly reached out and pulled Li Wenxi up.
"Ying!" Coco immediately jumped into the hollow tree trunk. Under Li Wenxi's astonished gaze, she grabbed the core out of the soil, and then jumped up in two or three steps.
"Wow, Coco, you are awesome!" Li Wenxi picked up Coco who was holding the core in his mouth and took out the tree house core from his mouth.
"Ying!" Coco was praised and called out proudly, wagging her big tail.
At the same time, the tree house with the core taken out had died and began to wither rapidly. Even the floor beneath their feet began to become brittle and made a squeaking sound.
"Go down quickly!" Xu Xin quickly took Li Wenxi and jumped under the tree house, and then the three of them moved away from the tree house.
The leaves outside the tree house quickly withered and fell off, revealing the heavy crossbow installed outside the tree house. Then the entire wooden tree house began to collapse, and finally collapsed with a loud bang.
The entire tree house eventually turned into a pile of broken wood pieces on the ground, leaving only a slightly dry trunk of the tree house.
