Survival: Starting with a Tiny Treehouse

Chapter 57: The joy of a horse archer

Views:

A sika deer has 10 points, and he got 50 points when he captured the wolf king. It seems that the points are indeed divided according to the difficulty of hunting.

Xu Xin pulled the crossbow arrow out of the sika deer. The crossbow arrow had changed from a poisonous arrow to an ordinary crossbow arrow.

After recovering the ordinary crossbow arrows that had missed his target before, Xu Xin took out his boning knife (blue).

Sika deer are often hunted on Earth. They are first-class protected animals in Xu Xin's country and are also endangered species. This also shows that the body of the sika deer is full of treasures.

"Out of the blue, out of the blue, out of the blue!" Xu Xin chanted silently in his mind as he used a boning knife to cut up the sika deer.

However, no blue resources appeared, and there were still a bunch of green resources.

Rubber bands and bones are already very common, and there are two resources that have never been obtained before.

Deer antler (green): The unossified, hairy young antlers of male sika deer. It is a precious medicinal material and the raw material for making certain medicines.

It was velvet antler. The antlers of the deer he killed were in the state of velvet antler.

Unfortunately, it is not of blue grade. There seems to be no method to make medicine at present, and only hemostatic grass is sold on the trading platform.

He threw a portion of the venison to Silver King, who lowered his head and began to chew it. The meal had just been interrupted by the brown bear, and he had not yet eaten his fill.

Although the deer was killed by a poisonous arrow, the poison of the venomous snake will only be effective when it enters the blood. Under normal circumstances, as long as there is no wound in the mouth, there will be no problem even if it drinks a bottle of snake venom. Therefore, the meat of wild animals killed by poisonous arrows can also be eaten.

"Hmm." Coco on his shoulder poked him with her little paw and pointed to the grass not far away.

"Oh?" Xu Xin looked over there. The grass was swaying gently in the wind, and there was nothing unusual. He glanced at the map and found a very faint red dot at that location.

Xu Xin looked carefully at the grass and found a hint of white in it.

"It should be a hare or something like that." Xu Xin licked his lips, loaded an ordinary arrow into the crossbow, aimed at the white object and fired an arrow.

A mournful cry was heard from the bushes, and then there was silence.

Hunt a hare and get points: 1 point.

It was indeed a hare, but it was only worth a few points... Xu Xin immediately lost most of his interest in the hare.

He walked forward and saw a crossbow arrow hitting the dead hare in the forehead in the grass.

"I almost thought I was a crossbow master." Xu Xin laughed, pulled out the crossbow arrow and disassembled the hare.

Nothing very useful came out, so Xu Xin threw the materials into his backpack.

Xu Xin checked the leaderboard of the new event with his watch. There was no ranking or points on it. Points would not be updated in real time. It should be the same as last time, and would be announced at the end. So he didn't know where his current 61 points ranked in the overall ranking.

He glanced at the regional channel.

Not many people were talking in the regional channel. Most of them had gone out hunting. Fifty people would still die in this activity, and none of them wanted to be the last fifty.

"Hahaha! I just went out and I killed a snake with my stone sword. It was a poisonous snake. It gave me 5 points!"

"Fuck, a toad only has 0.5 points, that's too little!"

"Toads also have points? Um... Is it safe down there? If toads also have points, then I want to go down and get some points..."

"Whether it's safe or not, we have to go down! Isn't it pure death to stay in the tree house? I won't say anymore. The snake gave me a tendon. I just came up here to make a bow and arrow and brag a little. Goodbye, I'm going to go shoot the beasts!"

In fact, just by looking at the gradually decreasing number of people on the regional channel, you can know how dangerous it is outside. There are probably many people like Xu Xin who are unlucky enough to have wolves and brown bears come around the tree house just as the activity starts.

"It seems that large carnivores still have higher points." Xu Xin thought, "I wonder if those carnivores will be attracted to blue-grade fruits."

Xu Xin took out a large red berry from his backpack. Coco on his shoulder and Silver King, who had just finished eating venison, both turned their heads to look at the red berry in his hand.

"Hmm!" Coco thought that Xu Xin had not given it any high-quality fruit today, so she immediately asked Xu Xin for some with confidence.

Xu Xin stuffed the red berry into Coco's mouth and took out another red berry: "Silver King, do you want to eat it? Sit down if you want to eat it."

"Oh!" The Silver King sat down immediately, like an obedient big dog.

Xu Xin threw the red berries to Silver King, who immediately caught them with his mouth. The tiny red berries were too small for Silver King's big mouth, and he swallowed them in one gulp. An expression like Coco appeared on the wolf's face.

It seems that this thing can also attract carnivorous beasts.

"Okay, I'm going to get serious now."

Xu Xin obtained a mount, learned how to use a crossbow, and verified the effect of blue food. He prepared everything and was ready to go on a killing spree.

He took out a few oranges from his backpack and stuffed them into the armor, thus becoming a humanoid beast attractor.

He mounted the wolf's back and pointed in the direction with the most red dots: "Silver King, let's go!"

The Silver King let out a heroic wolf howl and ran rapidly in that direction.

The small wild animals around were alarmed. Xu Xin saw all kinds of rabbits and foxes running everywhere, and flocks of birds startled in the sky.

The crossbow in Xu Xin's hand was aimed at a rabbit that was standing still. The rabbit seemed to be attracted by the blue-level fruit on his body, and stared motionlessly at Xu Xin who was riding a wolf and rushing towards him.

Xu Xin pulled the trigger of the crossbow, and the crossbow arrow hit the rabbit accurately.

Hunt a hare and get points: 1 point.

He did not ask Silver King to stop, but rushed over and reached out to grab the dead hare in his hand, and threw the rabbit carcass with the crossbow arrow into the backpack. We will talk about the handling of such things later.

Sitting on the wolf's back, Xu Xin loaded the crossbow with a string. It was much more laborious to load the crossbow directly than to use the foot, but with Xu Xin's current strength, it was not impossible.

Another crossbow arrow shot out.

Hunt wild foxes and get points: 3 points.

Xu Xin repeated the same trick and threw the wild fox corpse with crossbow arrows into the backpack again.

"Oh!" He felt extremely refreshed. Because of the contract, he did not have to worry about falling off even without holding on to the wolf's back. He was like a mounted archer, hunting the small wild animals around him.

Instead, Coco on his shoulder was so frightened that she climbed down from his shoulder and grabbed the wolf hair on the Silver Queen's neck to prevent herself from falling down.

Hunt a hare and get points: 1 point.

Hunt badgers and get points: 3 points.

Hunt wild cats and get points: 3 points.

Hunt chipmunks and get points: 1 point.

There were always small wild animals that would stand still or even run towards Xu Xin because of the blue-quality food on him. Xu Xin accepted all of them and put them all in his pocket.

But soon, he lost interest in these small beasts. After spending so much time and effort, he finally got the hang of the controls and it was really fun, but the points he earned were less than half of what he would have gotten from taming the Wolf King.

Xu Xin asked the wolf king to stop and disassemble the bodies of these small beasts. To his disappointment, he only disassembled the animal skins (green), not even the tendons, and naturally there were no blue-grade materials.

"Sure enough, nothing good can come from these small animals." Xu Xin felt helpless.

A map appeared in Xu Xin's mind. He looked to the northwest of the map, which was where he went yesterday.

There were fewer beasts there, because most of them were already scattered throughout the jungle, but some strong beasts like wild boars were obviously more numerous there than here.

"It's a good opportunity to go check out the building we discovered earlier."

Xu Xin first rode the Silver King for a few minutes back to the tree house, put all the meat he had just hunted in his backpack in the tree house, put it on the trading platform, and then used the hunted animal skins and bones to make a set of leather armor.

Because he only has animal skin (green), this is just a set of green-grade leather armor, and it has no set effect, but this set of leather armor still has the ability to protect against claw attacks and bites, and most importantly, it does not make any noise.

There must be some powerful wild beasts around that strange building. Xu Xin decided to go there quietly. It would be best not to confront those beasts head-on. Even if he wanted to hunt them, the most appropriate way would be to hide aside and attack them with poisonous crossbow arrows.

After taking off the armor, Xu Xin put it in his backpack for use, and put the blue-grade fruits into the backpack.

Coming down from the tree house, Xu Xin rode on the Silver King, but Coco did not ride on his shoulders, choosing instead to lie on the back of the wolf king's neck.

"Let's go and see what that strange building is!"
