Inside the house, Xu Xin, Li Yajun, Lou Feier, Jin Yue, Shi Wanyun and Zeng Tao were all shocked by this sudden situation.
"What? What's going on?" Zeng Tao was originally immersed in the joy of obtaining the treasure, but suddenly she was confused by what he said, "What do you mean? Regional confrontation? It turns out that regional confrontation really exists!"
Lou Feier thought of something and her eyes widened slightly: "Ah, Xiao Taozi, do you remember what Zhang Daoguang, the boss of District 187, said to us? Regional confrontation is inevitable, but I didn't expect it to come so suddenly."
Regional confrontation...
Xu Xin's expression also looked a little ugly.
Ji Chaoyang learned about the regional confrontation during his underground exploration during the battle to defend the tree house, and he has not told anyone else what he discovered until now. He only told them that this was a selection and that there will definitely be regional confrontations in the future.
It seems that he needs to ask in detail about the situation at that time.
But... are they really going to be enemies with all the survivors
Downstairs, the survivors living on the second floor also started to make noise.
Le Youfang and Niu Fugui, two people who were relatively familiar with Xu Xin, were urged by the crowd to run up directly.
"Boss, what's going on? Did you do something earth-shattering?"
"Are we going to be enemies with all other regions? It turns out that regional confrontation is real!"
Both of them looked shocked.
The words that the mysterious voice just said, "The survivors in Area 188 violated the rules of survival," really shocked all of them to the extreme!
The issue of "regional confrontation" has actually been basically forgotten by all the survivors.
Previously, the world channel had caused a stir because of the regional confrontation. At that time, it was District 188 that took the lead and asked everyone not to engage in regional confrontation, and also provided considerable assistance to people from other districts. Only then did the matter gradually subside.
And now, this matter has been brought up again!
It would not be a good thing if we were regarded as enemies by all the survivors in other areas because of this incident.
You know, this group of survivors are all humans from the past. If they can unite, who would want internal strife among humans!
Their enemy should be those alien invaders!
"Don't panic." Xu Xin first calmed down his chaotic mood and said to the people around him, "Even if there is a regional confrontation, it will not have much impact on us now. Instead, the people in other regions will be greatly affected."
The people around them gradually came back to their senses from their shock.
"That's right!" Lou Fei'er immediately agreed with Xu Xin and nodded, "The gap between the survivors in other areas and us is too big. They don't pose any threat at all."
"Now that you mention it, it's true..." Zeng Tao's expression gradually relaxed.
At this moment, Xu Xin's watch suddenly vibrated.
He raised his hand and saw that it was Ji Chaoyang calling.
"Xu Xin, what did you encounter this time?" Ji Chaoyang asked directly after he answered the phone. "That mysterious voice gave me the feeling of flipping the table? Did you really touch something?"
"… I really know too much this time." Xu Xin rubbed his head and said in distress: "I have received too much information recently. I really don't know where to start now."
"How about we all go to your place and talk face to face?" Ji Chaoyang suggested.
"Okay, that's what I was thinking. By the way, you should have seen what happened here, right?"
What Xu Xin was talking about was what had just happened, the hills sinking into the ground and the Crystal City rising from the ground.
"No, I had the curtains of the tree house drawn before the sun rose to prevent the sun from shining into the house and causing unnecessary damage. I just saw that the hills on your side disappeared and a new one appeared... That's why I contacted you." Ji Chaoyang said, "Okay, I'll contact the others and come over right away!"
"Okay!" Xu Xin hung up the call, thinking about what to do next.
At this time, Zeng Tao swiped the shadow cast by the watch and exclaimed, "Ah, the communication of the watch is completely restored! I can contact other people!"
Communications restored
Yes, that’s right, now that the scorching heat has been forced to stop, the communication restrictions that come with the scorching heat will naturally be lifted as well!
He immediately tried to call Li Wenxi again.
Unfortunately, it still didn’t work.
Xu Xin frowned.
…Where is Wen Xi now
Now it's not just a matter of her personal safety.
To be honest, if Wen Xi really voluntarily followed Yingying, Xu Xin would not be very worried about her safety.
He didn't think there would be any big problem with this choice made by the two most important people in the world. It was probably just because there were things they didn't want him to know that made them run away secretly.
but…
Now it’s not just Wen Xi’s own business!
The regional confrontation has already arrived, and seeing that the mysterious voice is acting as if it is overturning the table, they are now afraid that they will suffer more attacks.
And Li Wenxi's ability is the most important source of supplies!
If she were gone, without a stable source of ore, their weapons, armor, tools and other equipment would probably be completely out of stock!
This is a big deal!
"Um..." Lou Fei'er tugged at his arm, "Where's Wen Xi? My watch is still with her."
“… Your watch is here with me.” Xu Xin returned her watch to her, and then his own watch began to vibrate again.
"Ah? Oh..." Seeing that Xu Xin was very busy, Lou Feier did not ask any more questions. She took the watch and walked away.
On Xu Xin's watch, messages started popping up frantically in the explorer group.
Zhao Xiaochuan: "Communication is on!"
Wang Lei: "Fuck, what's going on, everyone? What happened? Why did something so serious happen all of a sudden?"
Ji Chaoyang: "Everyone, this incident should be triggered by something that happened to Xu Xin. Let's set up the defense of our tree house area, and then go to Xu Xin. He will explain it to us."
Wang Lei: "Damn, it really is Brother Xin! What on earth did Brother Xin do? This is too powerful! Are we enemies of the whole world?"
Wen Guixin: "Why are you panicking? If they have the guts to come over and attack us, they will just be giving us heads, right?"
Zhao Xiaochuan: "Oh my god, the world channel is in chaos now! Haha, there are still many people who are leaning towards us! They said they would surrender to the enemy as soon as they saw us. I am dying of laughter!"
Qin Yunlong: "This early morning has made me sober up a lot. I will take people back to the tree house to deal with it and then I will be there!"
Xu Xin immediately said in the Explorer: "Everyone, I just returned to the tree house and have some things to deal with. How about this, you all come over in half an hour."
Wang Lei: "Okay, Brother Xin!"
Zhao Xiaochuan: "Then I don't have to worry!"
Wen Guixin: "It's not a big problem. Just go do your thing. We're not in that rush."
They, the explorers, didn't seem to be panicked at all.
This is normal, it is a manifestation of self-confidence.
In the view of these explorers, even if all the people from other areas were added together, they would never be a match for them.
In terms of equipment alone, there is an insurmountable gap.
The other survivors are still in the era of cold weapons, and an iron crossbow is considered advanced equipment. But they, the explorers, can directly use heavy crossbows to bombard the giant beasts!
The gap between them cannot be compared by quantity at all.
Xu Xin also had the same idea. If it was just like that, they probably wouldn't have to worry about anything.
But we can't just rest assured.
Because there is no need to worry, as long as they are always this weak.
If this mysterious sound of overturning the table provides additional help to people in other areas, then the situation may be bad.
Xu Xin began to think.
Now it seems that what happened here should have been noticed by those alien invaders who have taken root on Earth for thousands of years, which is why they did such a thing.
But... From this point of view, they can't directly punish him.
Even before, they just used various activities to manipulate the environment to image them.
And now, even though they have noticed that something is wrong with Xu Xin, they still only use the method of regional confrontation and civil war to let the survivors engage in internal consumption and deplete their numbers.
Why
With their current technology, it should be easy to kill the survivors, right
Is it because they are too proud to take action
Or are there some constraints that force them to do so
… No matter what the reason is, his current situation is still safe for the time being.
He glanced at the World Channel again.
Sure enough, just as Zhao Xiaochuan said, the world channel is very chaotic now.
"Do you understand what is going on?"
"What? Half of the people in our district have died of heat stroke. We finally managed to survive this scorching heat, and now you want us to go against District 188? Are you crazy?"
"I don't want to be an enemy of District 188! Without the help of District 188, I wouldn't be alive today..."
"Damn it, without the help of District 188, I might not be able to survive in our district alone!"
"It's poisonous, right? Could it be that District 188 has helped us too much, and this ghost voice can't stand it anymore?"
"Shit, it's really possible. Is this system sick? It won't even allow us to help each other?"
"I want to survive, so everyone, let's fight against District 188 together!"
"Down with District 188! We can't let them occupy the best resources any longer!"
"No matter whether District 188 has helped us before, it's a life-and-death situation now. We have no choice but to do it!"
"What? What do you want to do? Go along the network cable and chop down Elder Xu Xin?"
"It's so funny! If I could find the location of District 188, I would run over there and surrender immediately. Who wants to go against the big guys in District 188?"
"The temperature has finally dropped! I feel better! By the way, does this count as District 188 saving us by ending the heat wave?"
"Yes, if I transplant my tree house to District 188, then I will become a person from District 188, right?"
“Are there any people from District 187 and District 189 who can tell us about the situation? Do we no longer have to fight against those who defected? If so, why don’t we just join District 188 together?”
Seeing this information, Xu Xin couldn't help but want to laugh.
The mysterious voice's idea of using other survivors to besiege Area 188 did not seem to work.
It underestimates the current prestige of District 188.
Even if those people in the outside districts didn't know what they had done, and didn't know that they had a crystal city with invincible defense, they didn't want to be enemies with District 188 while there was still a chance.
"Pfft, these people are really interesting." Lou Feier couldn't help laughing, "It seems we don't need to worry for a while."
"Hey, have you noticed? The temperature experienced by people in other areas doesn't seem to be as high as ours!" Zeng Tao said in surprise, "It seems that the temperature there is less than 50 degrees at noon..."
This is normal.
Xu Xin had calculated this before. The more survivors a place has, the stronger the disaster it will experience. If those individual survivors were exposed to the temperature here, they would probably have died long ago.
Xu Xin sighed, sat down on the sofa, and rubbed Coco's little head who was dozing off on the armrest of the sofa.
I'm really tired. I spent the whole night in a state of tension. Just after I came back, this happened again. Even Wen Xi is missing...
Wen Xi has always been his greatest comfort in this world. Now that she is gone, Xu Xin feels that his motivation has diminished a lot.
"Are you tired?" Seeing Xu Xin's exhausted face, Lou Feier came over and said, "Then you should take a rest first. The hot summer is over now. Although there are some regional confrontations, those people from other regions can't come here at all..."
She stopped before she finished speaking.
Then he slowly turned his head and looked at Shi Wanyun, who had been standing aside without saying a word, operating her watch with a somewhat ugly expression.
The others followed her gaze.
Now, isn’t there a survivor from outside the area among them
He is also the strongest survivor in the strongest District 1 except for their District 188!
Xu Xin, Lou Fei'er, Zeng Tao, and Jin Yue, the four people who knew her background, all fixed their eyes. Zeng Tao, Jin Yue, and Lou Fei'er suddenly tensed up slightly and surrounded Shi Wanyun.
"... You don't need to be so alert..." Shi Wanyun said weakly.
Although her intentions were not pure, she really had no intention of doing anything at the moment. She even just wanted to establish a good relationship with Xu Xin.
When she first learned that Li Wenxi was missing, she thought the situation was developing well and she could take advantage of the opportunity to take advantage of it.
But this mysterious voice suddenly initiated a regional confrontation, interrupting all her plans!
Looking at the way the people around her looked at her, she suddenly felt a little powerless.
Maybe now, no matter what she does, she will be suspected
If it was just Xu Xin, she might still try, but...
Now, the people around her are no weaker than her in terms of personal strength. It is not an easy task to do something under their attention...
"I really don't know how I got here, and now I can't find a way to go back." Shi Wanyun defended.
“…Who is she?” Li Yajun asked Lou Feier beside her in a low voice, somewhat confused.
Lou Feier said softly, "Shi Wanyun from Area 1."
"Shi from Area 1... huh?" Li Yajun's eyes widened immediately. "Shi Wanyun?"
When Niu Fugui of Leyoufang heard what Lou Feier said, his mouth opened wide in surprise.
"Besides, have you forgotten that District 1 is now allied with District 188?" Shi Wanyun said softly.
alliance…
Xu Xin shook and vomited.
That was the previous rule. Now that the mysterious voice has overturned the table, it is still unclear whether the alliance still counts.
The alliance channel is in chaos now.
"... If you don't believe me, I can let Xu Xin sign a contract with me like Lou Fei'er and the others did." Shi Wanyun looked a little struggling. She bit her lip and said with some difficulty, "This way, you can rest assured, right? I don't want to be suspected all the time..."
They had already discussed this matter with Shi Wanyun when they were trapped on the third floor of the palace, so she also knew about the contract.
"Good idea!" Zeng Tao said immediately, and then stretched out her little hand to point at Shi Wanyun, "I just thought so too. Xu Xin, you must treat us equally. You can't just contract me and not her! She must be restricted too!"
Xu Xin looked at Shi Wanyun, who seemed to be forcing a smile at this moment.
This is indeed a good method.
Take advantage of the opportunity to control her, and then ask for information about the back of the planet directly from her mouth since she can no longer lie!
Shi Wanyun lowered her head, a gleam of light flashing in her eyes.
She actually thought of a good idea that could immediately reduce the other party's suspicion.
They... seem to have great trust in that kind of contract
But unfortunately...
It's no use to her.
