The three months of living inside the World Tree eased everyone's originally very nervous mood.
Outside, it was already the second day.
And inside the World Tree, after forty or fifty days of constant night, day finally arrived.
The World Tree has now regained its former prosperity.
Even worse than that.
After all, this time, tens of thousands of people are working together to build a city!
Xu Xin also once suggested that they should not build the city on a large scale for the time being. After all, they have not yet stabilized, and the World Tree might be destroyed again.
However, Ji Chaoyang thought that it didn’t matter if it was destroyed again.
At least they have now made sure that the tree house planted in the World Tree will not be destroyed.
That alone is enough.
As for urban construction...
They now have so many resources on hand that they can squander them at will. They were all collected by the mining team led by Li Wenxi before the war, and were also taken away by Ji Chaoyang and others at that time.
That is a resource after all.
Therefore, they now have countless construction resources. After all, when collecting metals, a large amount of by-products that can be used for construction will be collected.
Now they have piles of them in their hands.
His idea was that weapon refining did not require many people, and planting and raising livestock within the World Tree was too easy.
There must be something for these tens of thousands of people to do.
The timeline in their world tree is a hundred times longer than that of the outside world, and doing nothing is likely to cause some chaos.
And letting them build the city is the best way.
So, this is the scene inside the World Tree three months later.
An extremely prosperous city sprang up within three months.
Even if they had a population of tens of thousands, it would pale in comparison to the current city.
The small city they built should have no problem absorbing a population of hundreds of thousands.
Therefore, people have even begun to consider bringing humans from the underground world to the surface one after another.
But the premise is to make sure it is safe here.
Otherwise, if they encounter a crisis, they can quickly clear the way and escape with tens of thousands of people, but if there are hundreds of thousands of people...
That might be a bit troublesome.
Ordinary people may not be willing to go to a dangerous place. The tens of thousands of people in the World Tree are either members of the Wei family's army or fanatical believers of Xu Xin and Xu Ying.
So, just now, we had a brief discussion through the contact group and decided to take the next step.
Zhao Xiaochuan: "Everyone, are you busy? Um, should we continue the action?"
Wang Lei: "I've already spent three months lazing around in the World Tree. Time flies!"
Zeng Tao: "Ah? Are we going to take action? We have enough weapons... It would be great if we could just continue like this, why do we have to take action? It's so comfortable now, it feels like the alien invaders can't come any more, they've all been destroyed!"
Wen Guixin: "Be prepared for danger in times of peace, be prepared for danger in times of peace, Xiao Taozi. Besides, I am a little worried about its condition..."
What Wen Guixin was talking about was naturally that monster.
When they were there before, they had no idea where it was.
But I couldn't just wait there, so I came back.
After all, that place was very familiar to the monsters, and they had the ability to teleport, so they were not too worried.
But now, three months have passed inside the World Tree, while almost one day has passed in the outside world.
Wen Guixin, who has the best relationship with it, gradually began to worry about its safety.
Qi Xuefei: "Whoever wants to leave, come to me to get the medicine. I have developed a new medicine."
: "Are there any new drugs?"
Qin Yunlong: "You mean that monster? That's its home, it's very familiar with it. Maybe it stayed there just to add fuel to the fire over there."
Li Wenxi: "Ah, are you going to do it? Wait a minute, let me go up first!"
She is currently in the underground world beneath the World Tree, leading a group of people to collect resources.
She basically hasn't gone down there in person during this period, and only goes down occasionally to see if there are any new discoveries.
Ji Chaoyang: "Let's talk about this face to face."
Xu Xin: "Okay, let's meet in the conference room in an hour."
Shi Wanyun: "Okay, got it."
Jin Yue: "Received."
Wang Lei: "Okay, Brother Xin!"
Zhao Xiaochuan: "I'm so excited. We're finally going to set off again!"
Lou Feier: "One hour? Wait a minute, I'm still busy here, two hours, two hours is ok!"
Li Wenxi: "I can't get up in an hour! I'm still deep in the cave! It's the cave I took you into before! Do you know how deep it is! I can't get up in an hour!"
Xu Xin: "Um... then two hours."
Within three months, they each had their own "positions".
But one or two hours doesn’t matter.
That is the difference between whether the outside time is a few tens of seconds or more than a minute.
In this world tree, they have plenty of time.
Moreover, now they have basically everything ready, except for the east wind.
Everything has been prepared and we are just waiting to set off.
Moreover, the timing is just right now.
Although only one day had passed in the outside world, the radiation around the World Tree dissipated at an astonishing speed.
In just one day, the radiation within a radius of 100 kilometers had dissipated to a level where people could survive normally.
The "sinkhole" that was hit hard a hundred kilometers away has not recovered to its normal level, but it has been weakened a lot.
Not to mention, during this period of time, they also cultivated a lot of the radioactive grass that Xu Xin had obtained before, and even made anti-radiation clothing.
Their equipment now is very complete.
…
"Didn't you see what we were chatting about in the group just now?" Xu Xin said helplessly as he looked at Xu Ying who stretched and then collapsed on the sofa again.
"Ah? In the group?" Xu Ying picked up the communicator, scanned it a few times, and said indifferently, "Ah, I was wondering why my phone kept ringing just now. I was in the most critical stage of the game just now, so I didn't pay much attention to it."
This girl...
Seeing that Xu Xin's face was already somewhat dark, Xu Ying quickly raised her hands: "I was wrong, I was wrong. Alas, I was just a little lazy when I thought about having a hundred times more time in this World Tree... Aren't you guys lazy too!"
"Who is as lazy as you?" Xu Xin rolled his eyes. "You stay at home all day long, never leaving the house. One time, they even sent me a message asking me if something had happened to you."
"Um..." Xu Ying said a little embarrassedly, "But there are all my followers outside, it's troublesome to go out..."
That's true.
After learning about the results of their actions, the fanatical believers outside were simply...
Even Xu Xin now tries not to go out unless necessary.
He even wanted to go out wearing the Stealth cloak.
"… You've also read the message in the group. We need to discuss this matter in two hours."
"What is there to discuss?" Xu Ying spread her hands. "Hasn't it been discussed long ago? We will split into two groups. One will go back to the alien invaders' lair to investigate the situation, and the other will go to the wreckage a hundred kilometers away to teleport the tanks away."
“The details still need to be discussed.”
"Oh, well, there are still two hours left, right? I'll continue then!"
Having said that, she sat down and continued to rub the handle.
Xu Xin looked at her.
"Why are you looking at me like that?"
She turned her head to glance at Xu Xin and said dissatisfiedly.
"nothing."
Xu Xin shook his head and sat on the sofa beside him.
Although Yingying looked like she didn't care, she was actually a little nervous.
The hand holding the handle was obviously clenched very tightly.
This girl was obviously trying to hide her nervousness with an indifferent attitude.
For her, the difference between inside and outside the World Tree is like the difference between heaven and hell.
Xu Xin didn't say anything more, but sat next to her and watched her play games.
About an hour later, there was a sound of the door opening.
It’s Li Wenxi who’s back.
"Ah, Yingying, why are you still playing games?"
She looked a little dusty at this moment, and there was a hint of metallic smell on her body.
"Has the cave been dug deeper?" Xu Xin asked with a smile.
"Of course, but unfortunately, no new materials were found."
Li Wenxi took off her coat: "I'm going to take a shower."
"That's great. I want to take a shower too." Xu Xin stood up.
"Then come on!"
Xu Ying glanced at the two of them and said, "Keep your voices down, I'm still outside."
Li Wenxi was already immune to her, and raised her lips: "The bathroom is on the third floor, you can't hear it."
Seeing the two people going upstairs, Xu Ying put down the controller in her hand.
Then he threw himself on the sofa, grabbed Coco, who was snoring on the armrest, and started jerking off.
“Boo-hoo-hoo?!”
Coco was stroked like a little panda with its fur standing on end, and confusion was written all over her face as she just woke up.
Xu Ying lay down on the sofa holding Coco, staring at the ceiling and muttering softly.
"Should I find a man too..."
"It's so tragic to die like this..."
"Alas... maybe I should lower my standards a bit? It's really hard to find someone who can compare to my brother..."
Her body had been transformed in another time and space by alien invaders.
The humans who survived at that time had all undergone transformation, because the alien invaders did not want humans to reproduce, which basically made them lose the ability to reproduce.
Even desire, there is basically no desire.
In addition, her previous standard for finding a man was that he had to be at least as handsome and strong as her brother Xu Xin. This resulted in the fact that although she is actually three hundred years old now, she has no emotional experience at all.
And now, she was stimulated.
You know, in another time and space, although Li Wenxi was her sister-in-law, the two of them almost never did such things.
After all, everyone's body has been transformed.
But now it’s different. Her brother and sister-in-law in this time and space are normal people!
"Hmm... Brother Chaoyang is not bad, but it's a pity that he has been taken by Sister Xuefei."
"Wang Lei, Zhao Xiaochuan and the others... forget it, forget it..."
"Oh... Never mind, I have cocoa!"
She jerked Coco a few more times.
“Oh!”
The little guy's hair stood on end from being stroked, and he finally couldn't bear it anymore, so he escaped from her hands and hid in the corner of the sofa, looking at her vigilantly.
Xu Ying continued to stare at the ceiling while lying on the sofa. Her eyes looked a little strange, and she continued to mutter, "Humph, I still can't hear you... Do you know how good my hearing is? I... Ah! These two guys!"
She covered her ears and buried her head.
…
An hour later, three people walked out of the villa.
There was still a blush on Li Wenxi's face.
Xu Ying looked at the two of them sideways and wanted to complain.
And towards them came Lou Feier, Zeng Tao, Jin Yue and Shi Wanyun.
The four of them still live in the villa opposite.
He came to visit from time to time during these three months.
"Let's do it together... ah~"
Lou Feier looked at Li Wenxi and teased, "This is what you did before you came out."
Li Wenxi poked her in annoyance: "You are the only one who talks too much."
"Sometime let me join in!"
"You wish! Maybe in your next life!" Li Wenxi glared at her.
"Don't be so heartless~" Lou Feier hugged her arms.
Shi Wanyun and the others also laughed.
The group of people seemed very relaxed.
This is the atmosphere inside the World Tree all the time.
The so-called "meeting room" mentioned by Xu Xin before was actually the tree house where they often held meetings before.
They arrived very quickly.
They are even the last batch, and with them, all the staff are complete.
The meeting came and went quickly.
Because the preparations are indeed very complete.
Basically it's a discussion on some details.
And, staff allocation.
Those who went to the alien invaders' lair included Xu Xin, Xu Ying, Li Wenxi, Zhao Xiaochuan, Lou Fei'er, and Zeng Tao.
The others stayed at the World Tree to deal with the chariots.
As for why Wen Guixin, who had the strongest combat power, did not go, it was because no matter how powerful Wen Guixin's abilities were, they would not be very useful against alien invaders.
Xu Xin and his team already had weapons that could kill the alien invaders. They brought Lou Fei'er with them because she was flexible and could draw her gun quickly.
And, most importantly, the jungle is now full of life again.
In just one day, the jungle that had been hit by the nuclear bomb regained its vitality and even grew into large groups of small trees.
These small trees have not yet grown into towering trees, and their trunks are only as thick as arms, but they already look like a jungle.
Now that the jungle has been reborn, there will naturally be no shortage of animals in the jungle.
Perhaps because of the attraction of the Crystal City and the World Tree, the jungle now once again has a very rich biological population.
What was surprising was that the wreckage of the giant ship was actually attracting living creatures to approach.
But there is radiation over there!
Perhaps due to the bloodline of the giant beast, the creatures that approached the wreckage of the giant ship did not die from the radiation, but instead mutated rapidly.
Perhaps because of some energy leaked from the giant ship, some of them even underwent bloodline mutations, and were covered with fine bloodline patterns.
This has resulted in the area around the wreckage of the giant ship now being filled with ferocious mutant creatures.
It’s actually not safe over there.
Therefore, Wen Guixin and others stayed to resolve the danger over there.
Wen Guixin's ability is an invincible weapon against mutant creatures.
"It's exciting!" Zhao Xiaochuan was a little excited. "I have to go back again. I must go and see what the final result is after we have been digging there for so long!"
"I'll just blow them to death!" Zeng Tao raised his weak little fist and waved it twice.
The reason she was brought along is because she can directly carry the heavy nuclear bomb launcher and launch it!
It's like a walking nuclear missile launcher.
As for Yggdrasil, they will not use nuclear bombs if they can avoid it.
But the alien invaders don’t care, they will bomb them anyway!
They don't live there anyway.
"Okay, then we'll rest for a night and set off tomorrow."
The meeting was disbanded.
A night's rest naturally refers to a night inside the World Tree.
Although it is always daytime in the World Tree now, they naturally also set the time points in the World Tree.
The time now is already eight o'clock in the evening.
"Brother Xin, I'm going back first." Zhao Xiaochuan said hello to Xu Xin, "Let's set off together tomorrow! Don't worry, even if it's chaotic over there, I can definitely make sure you won't be discovered!"
Zhao Xiaochuan is gone.
But Lou Feier and the others did not go back, but came to Xu Xin and the others.
It is said that these girls are going to stay together tonight.
Xu Xin did not refuse.
They should be here for Xu Ying.
"Brother, you must lock the door tonight." Xu Ying teased.
"Lock the door?" Xu Xin was stunned and pointed at the main door of the villa. "It's always locked."
"I mean your bedroom door." Xu Ying couldn't help laughing.
"Ah! Yes, lock it up!" Li Wenxi also nodded vigorously, "It must be locked up. I'm afraid someone will attack you at night!"
"What? Is this the kind of person I am in your eyes?" Lou Feier immediately looked aggrieved and cried out.
Li Wenxi glanced at her and said, "I didn't say who it was, and I don't know who insisted on identifying it with that name."
"Tsk, you mean thing."
"What do you mean by cheapskate? Do you really want to raid at night?"
"Actually, even if the door is locked, there are many ways to solve it." Shi Wanyun chuckled.
"Ah? Okay, I understand now. None of you can rest assured!"
"Hey, could you please stop talking about topics that are not suitable for children!" Zeng Tao said with her hands on her hips.
"Well, Zeng Tao still makes me feel at ease." Li Wenxi patted her head with relief.
"Don't treat me like a child!"
The girls were fighting and making noise, which gave Xu Xin a headache.
He quickly carried Coco upstairs.
"Don't forget to lock the door!" Li Wenxi shouted behind him.
There was still laughter coming from downstairs.
This kind of life is so easy.
To be honest, if Zhao Xiaochuan hadn't mentioned it today, he would have even wanted to...
The longer you can postpone it, the better.
after all…
He looked at Xu Ying.
Although I was smiling at this moment, I still felt a little worried.
However, this is also what she expected.
"Hmm...?"
Coco raised her little head in Xu Xin's arms.
"Come on Coco, let's go to bed."
“…嘤?” Coco tilted her head.
It has slept for a whole day and is not sleepy now.
So he broke free from Xu Xin's arms and ran downstairs to play.
"Little guy..."
Xu Xin shook his head helplessly, returned to the room, lay on the bed, looked at the ceiling, and slowly closed his eyes.
