Survival: Starting with a Tiny Treehouse

Chapter 722: Three months

Views:

In less than half an hour, Xu Xin was already a hundred kilometers away from the World Tree.

Because the World Tree was destroyed, all the tools they had made before, such as the helicopter, were also destroyed.

So, he came here riding on Huihui.

"ah-"

Huihui was hovering over the wreckage of three giant ships of the alien invaders.

Xu Xin looked at the wreckage below and felt a headache.

Physical headache.

The radiation here is really strong.

Even though Huihui was now several hundred meters in the air, he still felt very uncomfortable.

He looked down.

The three huge ships were riddled with holes.

What surprised him was that in addition to the obvious twisted cracks on the hull, there were also some regularly shaped holes on the hull.

These holes are basically circular holes, and their edges are turned up towards the outside of the giant ship.

This is quite intriguing.

It is obvious that these holes were actually broken and pushed open from the inside out.

And, judging from the shape...

Could it be the giant tentacle monster that Yingying mentioned before

If this hole, which is at least four or five meters in diameter, was opened by the tentacle monster's tentacles, how big would this tentacle monster be...

It’s a bit scary just to think about it.

Fortunately, the teleportation formation is no longer there, and there is no possibility of any tentacle monsters coming out of the teleportation light column.

Xu Xin looked carefully.

Through these holes, large cracks and small fissures, he could basically see most of the interior of the giant ship.

The interiors of these giant ships are basically empty.

This is normal. Ji Chaoyang also told him that after their three giant ships crashed, they carried out a very fierce nuclear bombing on the wreckage of the giant ships.

At this time, the wreckage of the three giant ships were all located in a huge sinkhole with a depth of hundreds of meters.

The bombing by Ji Chaoyang and his men directly turned this place into a "meteor crater".

Under a bombardment of this intensity, it is basically impossible for the things inside the giant ship to withstand the intensity of the nuclear bombing.

Therefore, it is normal for large internal areas to be empty.

However, he still wanted to go down and take a look.

"Gray, do you feel uncomfortable?"

Xu Xin patted the gray under him and said.

He did not bring Coco this time because he felt that Coco's small body might not be able to withstand the radiation here.

"ah-"

Huihui's voice was very energetic, and even the speed of circling became much faster.

It seemed to prove to Xu Xin that there was nothing wrong with it.

Xu Xin nodded.

That means he can hold on as long as there are no major problems. If there are minor problems, Qi Xuefei's medicine will be able to make him and Huihui recover.

"Let's go down and take a look at the wreckage of the giant ship first."

The giant ship he was pointing at was the most complete of the three giant ship wreckages, at least there was still a complete giant ship as a whole.

If there is a tank inside any giant ship that can move autonomously, this one is the most likely one.

"ah!"

Huihui immediately dived and rushed towards the wreckage of the huge ship that Xu Xin pointed to.

Then it spun in the air and drilled directly into a large crack on the hull of the giant ship.

"Hello!"

This almost threw Xu Xin off, but luckily he held on tightly.

The acceleration of Huihui's dive is much faster than free fall.

This is much more exciting than bungee jumping...

Gray fell to the ground and leaned over.

Xu Xin calmed his heartbeat.

He didn't jump off Huihui's body, but looked around.

Empty.

This is just... empty.

Inside, there's really nothing left.

The entire giant ship was reduced to a huge empty shell.

Under normal circumstances, the interior of a giant ship should be layered.

But the internal layers are naturally not made of materials with the strength of a giant ship. Under the violent nuclear explosion, it would probably be blown into molecules.

The sun shone in through the holes in the huge hull of the giant ship, and in the soil exposed by the holes in the hull floor, some... strangely colored, colorful grasses grew.

“There’s grass growing here?”

It was clearly just bombed not long ago

But think about it, this is already a place where vegetation growth is affected by the World Tree.

The vitality of the World Tree should not be underestimated. In the soil affected by the World Tree, no matter how much it is bombarded, it can recover its vitality in a short time.

Just like next to the Crystal City now, there are small green seedlings sprouting everywhere. I am afraid that in a few days, the jungle will recover again.

Xu Xin looked around again.

Apart from these strange grasses that had grown in such a harsh environment, there was nothing useful to be seen in the entire ship.

"Gray, over there."

Xu Xin pointed to the grass about two hundred meters away from him.

The grass was illuminated by the sunlight that came through the hole on the top of the giant ship, so it grew very well.

Moreover, under the sunlight, the colorful colors look very beautiful.

Moreover, according to his identification ability, this grass actually emits a purple-grade light.

"ah-"

Huihui flew over twice.

Xu Xin turned over, squatted down, and moved the grass.

Radiation Grass (Purple): This grass grows in strong radiation and has extremely strong vitality. It does not emit radioactive radiation, is highly toxic, and cannot be eaten, but it has the ability to absorb and reduce surrounding radiation. After being pulled out, the ability to absorb radiation will continue to exist for 2 hours.

Wow!

Grass that can reduce surrounding radiation

No wonder he felt the pain in his head eased when he stood by the grass.

Moreover, after being pulled out, it can still absorb radiation for two hours.

Isn't this exactly what they need right now!

They have to go back to the alien invaders' lair to check the situation there.

The radiation over there is extremely strong now.

Li Wenxi had already instructed them to make some anti-radiation suits, but the radiation over there was caused by the main guns of the alien invaders' giant ships, and the anti-radiation suits might not be able to protect much.

Having this kind of grass can also reduce the intensity of radiation.

"Dig some."

He dug up some radioactive grass, mainly for the grass seeds.

However, the ability of this grass to produce grass seeds is really too low. After spending several minutes digging a whole piece, only three grass seeds came out.

Radiant Grass Seeds (Purple): It only takes three minutes to grow a field of Radiant Grass.

Um.

It's enough, not bad.

This thing can be planted directly in the bracelet and you can pick some when you need it.

He picked up the grass seeds and climbed onto Huihui's back.

"Let's go, let's go to the next huge ship wreck."

The second huge ship wreckage wasn't much to look at.

Because this giant ship was several times more damaged than the previous one.

It broke directly into two pieces!

The interior of each section can be seen clearly from the broken side.

Xu Xin rode Huihui through the air and took a quick look.

And this second huge ship was undoubtedly empty as well.

"Go to that one."

The wreckage of the third giant ship is still in this huge sinkhole.

However, the location of this wreckage is at least one kilometer away from the other two ships.

Fortunately, Huihui was very fast and flew over in just over ten seconds.

As soon as he flew into the sky, Xu Xin noticed the difference in the wreckage of this giant ship.

The interior of the giant ship was fundamentally different from the previous two ships and was not completely blown empty.

But there are these layers.

"Go in, Gray."

"ah-"

Huihui leaned forward and sprinted, crawling through the hole in the wreckage.

Then, with just one glance, Xu Xin saw...

The rows of chariots were neatly displayed deep within the wreckage of the giant ship.

The giant ship is tilted as a whole, but this does not prevent the chariots from being tilted and neatly arranged.

Each tank seemed to have a special "parking space", and at this moment, that parking space was lit.

It looks like... it's charging.

“…!”

Xu Xin's eyes narrowed.

Lighted up

Charging

This giant ship is even still using energy!

The power system of this giant ship is still able to operate

No…

Most of the space inside this giant ship is empty.

There are strata and equipment, only those where the tanks are located.

That is to say, only that place is intact.

This is probably because the area where the chariots are stored is likely built with the same material as the chariots.

The tank remained intact after the nuclear bomb attack, so the area would naturally remain intact as well.

Perhaps, even the energy needed to charge these tanks is independent of this area.

It should be independent.

The power system of this giant ship must have been destroyed, otherwise it would have flown away long ago.

"So, our previous guess was correct, and even... the real situation is even more serious."

Xu Xin frowned.

"These chariots can actually be recharged."

Xu Xin and Hui Hui are now less than a hundred meters away from the chariots and can see the appearance of these chariots quite clearly.

These tanks are fully enclosed.

There's not even a piece of transparent glass; it's just a big metal box.

Even... Xu Xin couldn't see the door.

These chariots should not require operators to control them.

These are automatic tanks.

Therefore, these tanks should attack based on commands.

That is to say…

If the command to "destroy the World Tree" is still there for these chariots, after they have recharged their energy, they will most likely set off again and attack the World Tree!

This is a big deal!

This is a tank that even nuclear weapons cannot harm it at all!

"What should we do... Teleport? Teleport these tanks away?"

Xu Xin frowned and thought.

But at this moment his mind was in a mess and he couldn't figure out what was going on.

because…

“… Huihui, we have to leave quickly.”

He rubbed his unusually dry nose, and then his hands were covered in blood.

Moreover, he already had a splitting headache.

He had already taken the pill once before entering this third giant ship.

Unexpectedly, this situation happened again just a few minutes after I came in.

He had to take another pill.

The situation has improved a lot, but it is not advisable to stay here for long.

"Gray, let's go out."

After flying out of the giant ship, Huihui stopped outside the wreckage of the giant ship.

"Gray, are you feeling uncomfortable?"

"ah… "

Huihui's voice was obviously much weaker.

Xu Xin immediately threw two pills into its mouth.

"Ah... Mmm... Ah—"

A few seconds after Huihui took the pill, he immediately flapped his wings twice.

Obviously, it recovered.

And Xu Xin has also set the coordinates here.

"Let's go back."

Xu Xin rode on Huihui, soared into the sky, and then flew towards the World Tree at a high speed.

Soon, twenty minutes later, we returned to the World Tree.

Xu Ying rests in the tree house around the World Tree.

Li Wenxi had already entered the World Tree once and came out again, waiting in the tree house with Xu Ying.

Seeing Xu Xin return, the two immediately swung down from the tree house.

"elder brother!"

"How's it going? Are you not hurt by the radiation?"

"It's okay. But we have something."

Xu Xin told the two of them what he found there.

"It can actually be charged?" Xu Ying frowned, "This is a bit troublesome..."

"Fortunately, we thought of it and went to investigate." Li Wenxi said with some fear and relief, "If we hadn't found it, our World Tree would have been destroyed again!"

"Well, so this matter needs to be resolved as a priority."

Xu Xin looked at Xu Ying and said, "Yingying, I plan to go back to the alien invaders' base tomorrow to investigate. In one day, even if there is chaos there, it will be almost settled."

"… Yeah, that's fine." Xu Ying nodded gently. "Now I can hold on for a day without any problem. You guys should go back to the World Tree quickly. Wang Lei and the others came out several times just now to inquire about the situation and why you guys haven't gone in yet."

"What about you?"

"I'll just stay here." Xu Ying said as she sat on the bed and stretched.

"Yingying, come with us inside." Li Wenxi held her hand and said, "Let's use the method you thought of."

"That method... may not be reliable, and may also have certain risks. I..." Xu Ying hesitated.

"Didn't you say before that it was very reliable with confidence? You even explained the principle to me."

Xu Xin also grabbed one of her hands: "Let's go, you need a long rest in your current state. You only have one day to stay outside, why don't you go back to the World Tree to rest."

"Well... that's fine..."

The three of them came to the roots of the World Tree.

"I will go in first and adjust the time flow rate of the World Tree to be consistent with the outside world. Then I will contact you directly through the communication. You can just come in when the time comes."

"good."

Xu Ying and Li Wenxi watched Xu Xin enter the World Tree.

Then, within ten seconds, Xu Xin called.

"Okay, you can come in."

Xu Ying and Li Wenxi looked at each other.

Li Wenxi could clearly feel the sweat on Xu Ying's palms.

"Don't be nervous, it's okay."

The two entered the roots of the World Tree.

After Xu Ying completely entered, she stood there for two seconds, and then her eyes lit up!

"Yes! Yes! It worked!"

She said excitedly.

Although according to her theory, there is a 90% chance that this is possible.

If it weren't for this, she wouldn't have chosen to go in. It would be safer to wait outside for a day.

But, I'm still a little worried.

After all, if she failed, she might just be wiped out.

Fortunately it was successful.

"Already in? Go up first."

"Um!"

The two took the vine ball elevator and arrived at the interior space of the World Tree.

It is still a vast area and land, but the sky is already ten thousand meters high.

There is not much difference from before.

In front of the two of them was a town that was being built at a blazing pace!

Large areas of low buildings have also been built.

After all, they had been outside for more than an hour, and four or five days had passed inside the World Tree.

These low buildings were built temporarily to provide temporary shelter for tens of thousands of people.

However, neither of them paid attention to this.

"How are you? Are you feeling any discomfort?" Li Wenxi asked with concern.

"No." Xu Ying shook her head.

"Then I have to restore the flow of time within the World Tree now." Xu Xin said in the communication.

"… Well, you should recover."

"… "

"… "

"Have you recovered?" Xu Ying asked, shaking her lips.

"I've recovered a long time ago." Xu Xin smiled on the other end of the line, "It seems like you're really fine now."

“… Yes, is that so…”

Xu Ying let out a long sigh and finally a relaxed smile appeared on her face.

"It seems that I can live a little longer..."

She could feel that in this world tree, the progress of her body's space-time disorder was greatly suppressed.

No, maybe it’s not suppression, but the degree of this space-time disorder should be related to the speed of time flow in the outside world.

She stayed inside the World Tree for a hundred days, while only one day passed in the outside world, and the progress of the time and space disorder in her body was just one day.

This was also the main reason why she wanted to enter the World Tree so much.

In the World Tree, the last bit of her life could be extended a hundred times!

Now, she succeeded!

"Then let's rest here for a while."

Li Wenxi smiled and pulled her towards the town.

People come and go, and the World Tree is very lively.

Time flies.

Life in the World Tree is much more comfortable than outside.

There is plenty of time for them to use or waste.

Soon, three months passed.

"Yingying, it's time for us to take action."

Xu Xin folded his arms across his chest, looking at Xu Ying who was lying on the sofa rubbing the handle, and said helplessly.

After living in the World Tree for a few days, this guy fell into this lazy state.

Now she doesn't even need to go out, she just stays at home and plays all day long.

"Hmm..."

Coco lay in front of Xu Ying, turned over, revealing her little belly, and yawned with her mouth wide open.

"Ah? Time to act?"

"We still have those tanks to deal with, and we have to go to the alien invaders' base to take a look. Shouldn't you..."

Xu Ying put down the controller with some lack of interest and said: "How about, brother, can you go and help me? I don't want to move..."

"You..." Xu Xin laughed out of anger.

"Oh, I was just kidding."

Xu Ying stood up from the sofa and stretched.

She was wearing casual clothes at the moment, shorts and a short-sleeved shirt, with her belly button exposed, her hair a little messy, and she looked unkempt.

She even opened her little mouth and yawned like Coco, with tears on the verge of coming out.

"Hmm... Are we finally going to take action?" She rubbed her eyes.

"Well, we have prepared everything, it's time to set off." Xu Xin looked at her, shook his head and said helplessly.

He now really suspected that these three months of leisure had made his sister forget what she wanted to do before.
