The back side of the planet...
"I can now be sure that I am on the back of this planet." Shi Wanyun supported her body, stood up from the ground and looked around.
The amazing scenery around him impacted Xu Xin's vision.
"... I even feel like you're on another planet." He rubbed his head, feeling that the amount of information was a bit overwhelming. "Are you sure you're still in this world?"
Shi Wanyun opened her mouth to say something when a huge crocodile covered with blood-red stripes slowly crawled past her.
Her face suddenly changed. She didn't dare to speak or move. She only dared to move her eyes to the side.
This crocodile is huge, about seven or eight meters long, and the dense red stripes on its body show its strength: an advanced mutant creature.
This crocodile is not a behemoth.
It was the same as the advanced mutant stone statues that Xu Xin had seen in the underground world before. Although it was huge in size, it was not a behemoth because...
These guys are just that big in size!
This is a saltwater crocodile!
The largest reptile on Earth, some adult male saltwater crocodiles can be over seven meters long!
“嘤…” Coco looked at the images in the video, without screaming, but lying obediently in Xu Xin’s arms, blinking her eyes.
Because of Shi Wanyun's action of standing up just now, the saltwater crocodile was attracted over.
Fortunately, she was now motionless and had once again lost her presence in the eyes of the saltwater crocodile.
The big guy crawled past her and jumped into a river not far behind her.
"Huh..." Shi Wanyun and Xu Xin both let out a breath.
Just looking at the scenes in the video, I was worried for her!
Only now did he realize that Shi Wanyun's current position was truly unimaginably dangerous.
Like the advanced mutated saltwater crocodile just now, they are everywhere around her!
All around, there are advanced mutant creatures!
"Isn't your side really another world?" Xu Xin couldn't help but ask.
It's not impossible that she's on another planet.
Since the Blood Mark Clan can invade this planet, they can naturally invade other planets as well.
It looked a bit like a planet that had been completely invaded and colonized by the Blood Mark Clan.
Shi Wanyun's body softened slightly, and she leaned against the tree trunk behind her. Then she frowned slightly, snorted, and stood up again: "Of course, I am sure of this. If it was another planet, I would not be able to contact you. And..."
She turned the camera toward the horizon in the other direction.
Over there, there is an endless grassland.
At the end of the skyline, Xu Xin saw several purple-black beams of light slanting down from the sky.
Although those purple-black light beams did not emit bright light, they were extremely conspicuous and could be seen even across half the planet.
"Those should be the teleportation arrays we unlocked, right?"
Yes, indeed.
"… So, how did you get there?" Xu Xin asked the key question.
"... This is a long story." Shi Wanyun sighed, "I am in the middle of a... triggered event. The duration of this event is 48 hours, and 30 hours have passed. There are still 18 hours left, so there is still plenty of time."
Trigger event!
Xu Xin's brows twitched slightly.
He is very familiar with this.
Their snow mountain climbing and underground world exploration are also trigger activities.
If we extrapolate 30 hours forward...
It was not long after they entered the underground world.
"I will tell you everything I've been through. And I hope you can keep your promise."
Shi Wanyun looked around, hid between the tree trunks and bushes, and began to tell her experience.
At that time, she connected to another teleportation array in Area 1 and sent an invitation to Area 188 to establish a relationship.
After getting 188's reply that he would "think about it for a day", she herself had nothing else to do, so she prepared to return to the tree house.
And just then, she received a message asking for help.
It was sent by one of her neighbors who helped her activate the teleportation array by taking a shortcut.
"Help me! My tree house is surrounded!"
This was the information she received at that time.
And no matter how she asked, the other party never answered.
Even the call couldn't be connected.
Because the location of the teleportation array was not far from the tree house of the person who was asking for help, the snow in Area 1 had not completely melted, so Shi Wanyun immediately stepped on her skis and rushed towards the other person's tree house.
Even if she couldn't save him, she still had to see what happened! That's what she thought at the time.
As a result, when she arrived at the man's tree house, it seemed as if nothing had happened around her.
Even on the snow on the ground that had not yet completely melted, there were only the marks of the man's skis and footprints left by him.
She even thought at the time that this might be a prank by that person.
But she was still cautious and stayed away from the tree house, then contacted the owner of the tree house.
As a result, the owner of the tree house still did not reply at all.
The tree house is still full of vitality and has not entered a dying state, which means that the owner of the tree house is still alive.
If it's not a prank, then there is only one possibility.
The owner of the tree house was taken somewhere else.
but…
She took another close look around the tree house.
Apart from the traces of the skateboard and a few obvious human footprints, there were no other traces.
She tried shouting towards the tree house, but there was no response.
Without the owner's permission, she couldn't enter the tree house to check on its condition.
There was no choice, so she waited for a few minutes and decided to return to her tree house.
At this moment, something happened that made her feel a little horrified.
The other person who helped her activate the teleportation array also asked her for help at this time!
This time it was even shorter, with only two words: "Help!"
This really made her feel a little creepy!
She immediately requested a call, but there was no further movement from the other end.
She immediately prepared to return to her tree house.
Neither of them had watches, so if they wanted to contact her, they had to do so through the screen inside the tree house.
In other words, both of them asked her for help from inside the tree house, so the incident happened in both of them in the tree house!
There must be something wrong with her tree house!
With this worried mood, she immediately rushed to her tree house and soon returned to her tree house.
Just as she was about to grab the roots of the tree house and enter the tree house, something happened!
At this time, there was only a thin layer of snow left in Area 1. At this moment, a blood-red light suddenly lit up under the snow, forming a large area under her tree house!
Moreover, one can vaguely see that these blood-red lights form some special patterns!
She was so shocked that she didn't even react. Before her body was pulled up by the roots of the tree house, a purple-black color suddenly appeared in front of her eyes, and then she felt the world spinning!
When she opened her eyes again, she was already in a strange, dark cave.
"Were you... teleported away?" Xu Xin's eyes trembled slightly.
"Yes, it's teleportation. The feeling is similar to the teleportation of the teleportation array. The difference is that this teleportation has extremely great side effects. After I was teleported here, I felt extremely dizzy and nauseous. I couldn't even stand up." Shi Wanyun explained.
…Isn’t this similar to his coordinates
From this point of view, the teleportation array should be equivalent to a very stable teleportation function, because the starting point and the end point are fixed, so it will not make the person being teleported feel uncomfortable.
But this kind of unstable teleportation, such as his coordinates, the monsters under the snow during the previous beast tide, and the experience in the hilly resource area, basically show that this kind of random, temporary teleportation has huge side effects.
It was obvious that Shi Wanyun's teleportation this time was to temporarily arrange the entrance under his tree house, which was why this situation occurred.
In other words... someone has placed teleportation portals around the tree house
Xu Xin thought of those predators, those... hairy weirdos.
"… Didn't you parasitize the tree house?" Xu Xin asked, "Didn't you have anyone to help you watch over the tree house? Didn't you switch the heavy crossbow to automatic attack mode?"
"… No one is parasitic on me. I have always been alone." Shi Wanyun shook her head and said, "The two people who helped activate the formation wanted to join me, but I refused. As for the heavy crossbow, I have always turned on the automatic attack mode since the cold winter came."
No one is parasitic...
Is that really the case
After she left the tree house, her tree house was left unobserved.
At this time, if someone really came near her tree house to arrange the entrance to the tree house, it would indeed be easier.
As for the automatic mode of the heavy crossbow...
The automatic mode will attack enemy units, but it can only attack enemy units.
Xu Xin suddenly remembered that he seemed to have seen a hairy monster before... which was not shown on the map.
In other words, those furry monsters are actually classified as neutral units like Coco.
If this is a trap set by the furry monster...
Xu Xin was thinking, and Shi Wanyun was very smart and did not continue talking, but waited for him to think.
"Go on." Xu Xin said.
"Okay." Shi Wanyun nodded. "It took about twenty minutes for me to recover from my dizziness and weakness. Then, I walked out of the cave and saw... a world like this."
She looked around and sighed, "And just then, the prompt for triggering sexual activity rang in my ears. And my goal sounds simple, which is to reach a location and activate the teleportation device that can send me back to the teleportation array I activated."
She turned her head and looked at the giant tree that blocked out the sun. "That tree is my destination. The teleportation device is at the root of the tree, but... there is no way for me to accomplish this right now."
As she spoke, she pointed at the advanced mutant creatures walking around everywhere, her eyes full of helplessness.
Xu Xin could even sense the faint despair hidden deep in her eyes.
Perhaps, even now, she doesn't believe that she can complete this task.
"... Aren't you almost there?" Xu Xin looked at the giant tree on the screen.
Because the giant tree is so huge, it seems very close, but in fact, there is still some distance from the roots of the giant tree.
Probably... less than two kilometers away
Moreover, because the height of this giant tree reaches the sky, the treetops also block out the sun. At its closest point, it is basically right above Shi Wanyun's current position.
"Almost there..." Shi Wanyun laughed at herself, "Perhaps you don't believe it, but my current location is only two hundred meters away from the starting point. In these thirty hours, I only walked two hundred meters..."
this…
"For me now, this mission can be said to be a mission that means I will definitely die." Shi Wanyun's tone was still gentle, but Xu Xin could hear the unwillingness in her tone.
"Those mutant creatures around me didn't see me as an enemy, but they still saw me as prey. During the two hundred meters, I was attacked by two high-level mutant creatures, and each time, I was in a dying state."
"Fortunately, the medicine you Explorers sell has saved my life twice."
Medicine for the explorer
Xu Xin raised his eyebrows slightly.
Is this the medicine sold by Qi Xuefei
He remembered that the medicines Qi Xuefei sold to the public should all be low-grade pills, right
That is, the kind of pill that you can only take one pill every 24 hours, and there is a 2-hour weakness period, right
Shi Wanyun immediately explained: "Your medicine is indeed effective in healing wounds, but the two-hour weakness period is too fatal. If I don't take the medicine, I'm afraid I will die on the spot..."
"The first time I fell into weakness was also the beginning of my frantic requests to establish contact with you." A trace of embarrassment appeared on her face, but she quickly regained her composure.
"At that time, I had just come out of the cave for two minutes when I was immediately in a desperate situation. I was seriously injured and weak. In addition, there were many dangers around me, and my mentality was already unbalanced. The other people in Area 1 had no way to provide me with help beyond the norm, so I thought of you and did that."
“… So that’s how it is.” Xu Xin nodded.
No wonder she would do something that seemed unbecoming of a strong person in the area.
It turned out that she was in life crisis and panic at that time.
"Fortunately, the mutant creatures around me didn't seem to be very interested in my weakness. A bear even came over and sniffed me, then turned and left."
Her gentle words were trembling slightly. The scene at that time must have been extremely terrifying for her.
"After a period of weakness, I didn't dare to move forward. I found a tree, climbed up, hid in the tree canopy, and began to observe the surroundings. At that time, I couldn't take a second healing pill within 24 hours. If I was seriously injured again like before..."
Just by listening, Xu Xin could feel her desperate situation at that time.
That's really desperate.
"At that time, I was observing my surroundings while continuing to invite you to establish contact. Because I knew that perhaps only you could give me the last hope." She looked at Xu Xin through the screen and said, "But... I got the answer that you were missing. At that time, I guessed that you might have been involved in the triggering activity like me."
"So, you keep moving forward?" Xu Xin asked.
"No." Shi Wanyun shook her head. "I... didn't dare. I was afraid of death, so I hid in the tree canopy and waited until the 24-hour limit of the healing medicine was over, then I set out again."
"And the facts have proved that my choice was correct. I only walked a hundred meters, and the previous experience was repeated again." She gently touched her neck with her hand, and under Xu Xin's gaze, the corners of her eyes trembled twice. "If I had set out earlier, I would be dead now."
hiss…
This is so desperate...
"I am indeed close to despair. My only hope is you." Shi Wanyun said softly. She knew that she had no room for bargaining in her current situation, so she kept a low profile. "Fortunately, you have finally established contact with District 1. I also found an opportunity and sent you a message just now."
"My action of sending you a message attracted a mutant creature, so I had no choice but to flee. That's why I didn't reply to your message immediately. Instead, I took great pains to find a place to hide."
"Were you attacked again? Are you hurt?" Xu Xin asked.
"My back." Shi Wanyun's expression did not change. "My back was scratched by a claw. The injury is not serious, but my armor is completely damaged."
She pointed to the fragments of armor on the ground.
Xu Xin rubbed Coco, who had always been very well-behaved in his arms, feeling a little helpless.
She's not easy to save.
Her current situation is really too difficult.
“… I know that even if you help me, the possibility of my survival is very small, but…” Shi Wanyun looked at Xu Xin and opened her mouth slightly, but didn’t know what to say.
She didn't seem to be used to communicating with others, and the words she just said were all about her own story.
But this is normal, otherwise she wouldn't become a lone wolf.
"... You... You are my only hope." Shi Wanyun's voice was still so gentle, but her eyes were trembling slightly. She wanted to say something but didn't say it. Her eyes dimmed a little, "... If you don't want to save me, just hang up."
She herself felt little hope about her current situation.
Even she herself didn't believe that the opponent would give her a set of advanced equipment and weapons of at least purple level.
After all, judging from the current situation, this is basically equivalent to throwing away a set of high-level equipment.
Xu Xin sighed and reached out to the screen.
Shi Wanyun's eyes darkened obviously and she lowered her head slightly.
Then, she received a trading invitation.
"This is… "
She looked at a pill in her hand, her lips slightly parted.
"Sister Xuefei made this advanced pill. It has no time limit for use and no side effects. Let's cure your injury first."
