The next morning, Xu Xin woke up naturally.
The crisp bird calls and the cries of some small wild animals coming from outside the tree house made him feel like he was on vacation in a mountain resort.
How nice it would be if it could always be so comfortable. If there were no so-called activities, Xu Xin might really be able to live comfortably in this jungle with beautiful environment, fresh air and many small animals.
The dream is beautiful, but we still have to keep working hard today.
Xu Xin raised his hand and looked at the watch. It was seven o'clock, and the activity was to start at nine o'clock, with two hours of break time.
Coco was still sleeping soundly beside him, hugging his big furry brown and white tail.
This time the activity is called Dungeon Treasure Hunt, which should be similar to the last jungle exploration activity. It seems that this time it depends on the treasure panda. If Coco hadn't dragged him along last time, he would have had no chance of finding the gold treasure chest.
After getting up and washing up, Xu Xin began to prepare breakfast. He cut the meat into thin slices with a boning knife, put it on the grill and roasted it, sprinkling salt as he did so.
The smell of barbecue woke Coco and Yin Wang up, and they ran to Xu Xin.
As usual, Xu Xin gave Silver King a piece of raw meat, and he and Coco enjoyed a barbecue breakfast with vegetables and fruits. It was not that Xu Xin did not want to grill Silver King, but wolves could maintain their wildness and fighting power by eating raw meat, otherwise they would really be raised into a dog.
Someone among the explorers has already spoken.
Wen Guixin: "Boss, the rankings and rewards have already been announced. Will our organization not accept new members?"
Ji Chaoyang: "Forget it this time. The difference between fourth and twentieth is not that big. There is no obvious grading like last time. They don't have tools to communicate anytime and anywhere. Let's put off recruiting new members for now."
Wen Guixin: "...Okay, next time then."
Xu Xin actually didn't want to look at the ranking list for recruitment this time.
Now the nine people in the organization have the ability that others don't have: transforming the tree house. The top 20 of this ranking list are all weak except for the three of them. The extra points can't buy anything at all. It's just an extra ability to get discounts in the points mall. There's no need to recruit them into the organization.
After breakfast, Xu Xin began to prepare the things he would bring today.
Wear the leather armor set on your body and put the iron armor set in the backpack.
The crossbow and the spear were two powerful weapons that he had to carry with him, and in addition he wanted to make a sword.
Since it is a dungeon, there may be some relatively small spaces. A spear that is too long will be limited, while a sword will be more flexible.
Xu Xin made an iron sword out of an iron block (blue). In order to make the sword soundless when drawn, he made a leather scabbard out of animal skin and put it on his waist, which really gave him the feeling of a swordsman.
Then packing various functional foods into his backpack, Xu Xin waited for the activity to begin.
Not long after, a mysterious voice was heard.
Dear survivors, today's event is about to begin!
Next, I will introduce the content of the event. Survivors, please listen carefully.
There is a hidden underground city within the scope of your tree house protection area. There are countless treasures left by predecessors in the city, which can help your survival. Now, the entrance to the underground city has been opened, waiting for your arrival.
This time the activity is: Dungeon Treasure Hunt. In the next two days, go find that hidden dungeon and get the treasure inside!
Friendly reminder: Never explore areas outside the protection of the tree house, otherwise terrible things will happen.
The time for this reward activity is from 9:00 today to 18:00 tomorrow
Don't slack off, any survivor who fails to find the entrance to the dungeon will leave this beautiful world forever.
I hope all survivors can reap a lot of rewards in the dungeon.
Dungeon treasure hunt begins now!
The location of the dungeon is within the protection range of the tree house, and it is not known whether the underground monsters will appear in the dungeon. Although the tree house will protect the ground from monsters, it is not necessarily the case in the dungeon.
"Underground city..." Xu Xin looked out from the window of the tree house. On the surface, there was nothing unusual around him. The jungle was still the same jungle as yesterday.
His protection range is much larger than others, four times that of others, so it is much more difficult for him to find the entrance than for others.
After checking the map, he found that because of the return of wild animals due to hunting activities, there were many red dots on the map. Even near the lake closest to Xu Xin, there were many dim red dots. They should be herbivores drinking water.
But there is no area marked as "dungeon" on the map, nor is there any area with a lot of red dots.
Some people are at a loss as to what to do, just like when we were looking for the copper treasure chest at the beginning of the last exploration activity.
Xu Xin looked at the little fellow who had climbed onto his shoulder, stroked its soft tail and said, "I can count on you this time, Keke."
"Hmm?" Coco didn't know what was going on. She tilted her head and looked at Xu Xin.
"Do you feel anything unusual around you?" Xu Xin took Coco down from his shoulders and asked it to look out the window.
"Hmm... Hmm." Coco shook her head.
Xu Xin was helpless and looked at the regional channel, where many people were discussing.
"As long as we find the entrance to the dungeon, it will be fine! Doesn't that mean I don't have to go in?"
"The dungeon sounds dangerous, so I won't go in."
"Everyone, if you don't want to enter the dungeon after you find it, you can come back and share the location with everyone. The location of the entrance may be regular. After we find the entrance, we will enter it and share the situation in the dungeon with everyone. Everyone can then consider whether to enter."
The last sentence was sent by Ji Chaoyang. He wanted to gather everyone's strength to find the entrance to the dungeon, give them a direction, and minimize the number of people who wanted to slack off and see what was going on.
But Xu Xin knew that this event could not be so kind, and it was impossible to survive by simply finding the dungeon. Perhaps the first crisis was just outside the entrance to the dungeon, and when the entrance to the dungeon was found, the crisis would come.
It was impossible for Ji Chaoyang not to have thought of this, but he did not tell anyone about it. Instead, he gave everyone hope.
"As expected of you, Boss Ji! I'll go find the entrance right now!"
"The top five bosses are all in Boss Ji's organization. With a boss leading the team, isn't this a sure thing?"
"Everyone, hurry up and go! With so many of us, there will definitely be a few who can find it by chance. When the time comes, tell the bosses the location and we will have a strategy!"
"Hurry, hurry, go, go!"
Xu Xin didn't care about these things. If he posted his thoughts on the regional channel, more people would be afraid and stay in the tree house to enjoy the success, which would reduce the possibility of discovering the entrance to the underground city.
Regardless of that, he planned to go down and take a look first. With the Silver King around, his mobility was still very strong.
Arriving under the tree house, Xu Xin planned to go to the underground entrance of the golden treasure chest first. That was the entrance to the underground world, and perhaps there was an underground city nearby.
Silver King was very fast, and in a few minutes he reached the entrance to the underground world. Originally, this place was a sea of flowers, but after the blood-mouthed man-eating plant died, the flowers all withered and turned into a wasteland.
Xu Xin came to the entrance of the cave, hesitated for a moment, asked Yin Wang to stand guard outside the cave, and he walked inside with Coco.
Coming to the top of the tightly closed iron door, he looked down.
The surrounding soil was brighter red than the last time I came. Last time it was just a light red, but now it looked like it was soaked in blood.
It should be caused by the previous red fog that seeped into the soil, causing the soil to become contaminated soil.
Could that extremely foul-smelling red mist be the source of the pollution? If you inhale too much, will you mutate into the appearance of those monsters
Both he and Coco inhaled some of it, but apart from the unpleasant smell, it did not cause any effects on their bodies.
