Starting Off Survival With A Small Treehouse

Walking slowly in the burrow, Xu Xin began to look around.

The cave wall is not stone, but some dry soil, the soil is light red, and the entire cave wall is composed of this light red polluted soil (ash).

He touched it lightly with his hand, and a small piece of the wall shattered, fell onto the slope, and rolled down a certain distance.

"You guys, don't touch the wall if you have nothing to do, it's all dirt and it might collapse." Xu Xin reminded the four beasts.

The underground passage inside this cave is round at the bottom and the top is round. Although the ground is inclined, it is relatively flat, but the top is curved.

The whole cave seemed to be drilled by a huge worm, all the way to the ground.

"Hmm..." Ke Ke lay on Xu Xin's shoulder, shrinking her head in fear.

It has a very keen sense of danger, and in its sense, they are approaching danger step by step.

Xu Xin naturally knew that there was danger ahead, but she still had to move forward. Now his tree house is surrounded by mutated vines, and he can't even keep the tree house without destroying the heart.

Logically, this road should be less than a kilometer away, but he felt like he had walked for a long time. The further down he went, the quieter he became, and the surroundings had reached the point where he couldn't see his fingers. Fortunately, Xu Xin had night vision ability, so it didn't affect him too much.

As mutated beasts, Mimi and Silver King can both see at night in a dark environment. Although Ke Ke is not a mutated beast, for some reason, he has never been affected by the dark environment. Not to mention the bat, which can be positioned by the ultrasonic waves it emits, and is completely unaffected by the darkness, which is its home field instead.

In the cave, only the sound of their footsteps can be heard.

Although the nose had adapted to the surrounding aroma, Xu Xin could still feel that the aroma was much stronger than the one at the entrance, and it was even starting to be pungent, and a faint red mist began to float around.

Suddenly, a red light lighted up in front of him, causing Xu Xin's heart to skip a beat.

After taking a closer look, he found that the light source was Mimi who was walking in front, and he was relieved.

It was the blood-red pattern on Mimi's body that lit up slightly.

Is it because of the red mist around here?

The blood pattern on Ah Fu's body lying on Mimi's back did not light up. He looked back at Yin Wang and found that there was also a faint red light on Yin Wang.

It seems that the mid-level mutant beasts are more sensitive to the red mist, or they can use the red mist more efficiently. Even if the red mist is very thin now, it can still be used to strengthen their own strength.

However, this also sounded the alarm for him, making his spirit tense instantly.

His previous experience in the hilly resource area let him know that where the red mist is dense, the protective effect of the tree house will become weaker, and there is a high probability that there will be mutant creatures.

In the cave, the long spear was not easy to use. Xu Xin touched the blue-level iron long sword pinned to his waist, holding the crossbow with the explosive bolt in his hand, and followed Mimi, walking forward slowly with.

Mimi also didn't dare to walk too fast, as it could sense an unknown crisis ahead. When it steps on a catwalk, its hind feet will definitely step on the ground that its front paws have already stepped on, so as to ensure its own safety.

Just like that, after walking for a few minutes, it suddenly became clear that a man and four beasts walked into an underground space like a hall.

There is no other exit in the entire space, and it seems that it should have come to an end. There are no vines in this space, nor is there a beating "heart" surrounded by vines, which makes Xu Xin a little disappointed.

They must have gone wrong. Xu Xin looked at her location on the map, and it was still some distance away from the tree house.

However, Xu Xin was not in a hurry to go back. He was attracted by the plants growing in the middle of this space.

Those are three huge, very bright flowers, which grow together in clusters. The petals of each flower are as big as lotus leaves, showing bright red like blood, and in the center of countless petals, there are clusters of yellow flowers. The pistils look very beautiful.

Xu Xin was a little puzzled, how could there be such bright flowers in this dark underground?

He didn't dare to approach it easily. After all, in the natural world, the more beautiful a creature is, the more dangerous it is.

"Hey!" Coco suddenly called out.

...It means there is danger!

Holding the explosive crossbow, Xu Xin aimed at the bright red flowers clustered in front of him. If something went wrong, he would immediately pull the trigger. Silver King came to his side, Ah Fu flapped his wings and flew up, Mimi arched her waist, ready to violently grab these flowers at any time.

Suddenly, the stamen of one of the flowers trembled a few times, and a thick red mist burst out from the stamen.

Xu Xin almost pulled the trigger directly, and Mimi's body also trembled, obviously wanting to make a move but held back.

The flowers didn't spray red mist all the time, but stopped after spraying once. The red mist continued to spread in the air, and finally diluted into a faint red mist.

A few meters away, Xu Xin smelled that familiar pungent smell.

His eyes gradually widened.

The red mist floating in the air was actually released by the flower in front of me!

The red mist spread around them, and Xu Xin couldn't help inhaling some. At this time, his mental strength has increased, so he doesn't feel uncomfortable, but it smells a bit unpleasant.

Beside him, the bloodstains on Silver King and Mimi's bodies glowed brighter red than before, and even the bloodstains on Ah Fu's body glowed faintly.

The three beasts all showed expressions of enjoyment. Their abilities were all enhanced by the red mist.

Xu Xin suddenly had a bold idea.

After experiencing the red mist last night, Yin Wang and Mimi not only did not have any subsequent negative effects, they even directly upgraded today. This shows that the red mist is actually a very beneficial resource for mutant beasts!

The radiation stone that can enhance the strength of mutant beasts has been cracked and lost its effectiveness and turned into an ordinary stone. He needs other means to enhance the strength of Silver King.

But now, this kind of flower that can produce red mist is right in front of his eyes.

Then can he plant it? Build a small room, plant this kind of flower in it, and let Silver King and them go in from time to time to steam the red mist like a sauna...

Just as he was thinking, the pistil of another flower moved, and a red mist spewed out.

This situation made Xu Xin think of a sunflower in a certain game, which will produce a piece of sunshine every once in a while, and this kind of flower will spew a red mist every once in a while.

Xu Xin took a tentative step forward.

"Hey!" Seeing Xu Xin walking forward, Ke Ke became anxious, but it could clearly feel that there was danger in the stamens! It waved its two little paws and gestured for a long time before Xu Xin understood what it meant.

"There is danger in the stamen..." Xu Xin narrowed her eyes.

The flowers are not dangerous, but the pistils are. What would exist in the pistil of a flower?

Could it be...

Xu Xin held a crossbow with one hand, and took out his sharp spear with the other. The gun was three meters long, and he poked lightly at the stamen of the nearest flower at a distance of three meters.

"Buzz..." The sound of an insect flapping its wings came from the stamen, which made Xu Xin get goosebumps instantly.

... In the stamen, there are indeed flying insects!

And it's definitely a very aggressive insect, otherwise it wouldn't arouse Ke Ke's vigilance!

Fortunately, the worm didn't fly out because of Xu Xin's touch, it just stopped after making that noise.

"You guys, back off, I'm going to bomb them." Xu Xin gave up her previous thoughts and solemnly gave instructions to the four beasts.

If there are still a lot of aggressive mosquitoes, even Silver King and Mimi may not be able to escape completely. Just like an elephant is helpless against a mouse that gets into its nose, its small size is sometimes an advantage.

Let's nip the danger in the bud.

Several flowers are clustered together, very close together, and all of them can be blown up with one explosive crossbow.

If one shot isn't enough, take two.

Suddenly, the stamens of a flower trembled. Relying on super strength, Xu Xin could clearly see that a dozen flying insects with blood-red eyes and spikes on their mouths protruded half of their bodies from the stamens. Like the southern cockroach, its body is covered with thin bloody patterns.

They seemed to have seen Xu Xin and his party, flapping their wings, and were about to fly out immediately.

"Cover your ears!" Xu Xin warned the four beasts, and she didn't hesitate to pull the trigger directly.

"boom!"

The explosion arrow exploded on the three flowers, and the huge explosion sounded in the enclosed space, making him temporarily deaf.

But his eyes were not damaged by the strong light of the explosion. Instead, he could clearly see that the flying insects in the flowers flapped their wings at the moment of the explosion and wanted to fly out, but they were still torn to pieces by the force of the explosion.

efficient!

Xu Xin didn't stop the movement of his hands, wound up the string again, and fired!

"Boom!" "Boom!"

After two more shots, the violent explosion shook the entire cave, and countless broken earth and rocks fell from the top of the cave, making Xu Xin's head dizzy from the shock.

Fortunately, he still has orange and strawberry spiritual boosts on him, and it only took a moment to become dizzy, and he immediately regained his peak spirit.

...I hope the entrance of the hole won't be collapsed by the earthquake. Xu Xin thought as she rubbed her temporarily deaf ears.

The three explosive arrows were so powerful that the blood-red shattered petals were blown everywhere, and the burnt petals and bug corpses were spread all over the floor. None of the bugs in the stamens of the three flowers were spared, and all of them died on the ground. Exploding.

"The explosive arrow is really useful." Xu Xin turned her head, and Ke Ke on her shoulder covered her ears and locked her head. He flicked Coco's little head, "How about it, is it still in danger?"

Ke Ke blankly looked up at the bombed and rotten plants, stayed for two seconds, then shook his head: "Oh."

The three beasts behind them also covered their ears and lay down on the ground. Especially Ah Fu, whose hearing is very keen, can't stand this kind of huge explosion sound the most, Xu Xin can even see the resentful look on his bat face.

"Ahaha, take a break, I'll go and see those flowers."

He appeased the beasts, then stepped forward to observe the three big flowers that had been blown up by him with only a small stem and leaf left.

They were all blown up, which is a pity.

Wait a minute, the roots haven't been blown up, it seems to be okay...

Xu Xin took out the shovel, aimed at the root of half of the plant and shoveled it down.

【Obtain Chiwu Flower Seed*3】

Sure enough, you can get seeds!

Xu Xin took three grape-sized red seeds and looked at them.

[Red Mist Flower Seed: Planted in fertile soil or higher level soil, it can grow into a flower that releases Red Mist. This is a flower with magical powers! 】

Sure enough, this flower is not a mutant creature, but a special plant that can be grown!

After this event is over, we will plant this flower in a small closed room, and make a sauna for Silver King and the others!

However, it can only grow in blue-level soil or higher-level soil, is it so delicate?

Xu Xin had never seen soil above the blue level. If it wasn't for this introduction, he would have even thought that the blue-grade soil was the highest-grade soil.

He looked at the soil under the red mist flower, which exuded blue light and was fertile soil. There is only this piece of fertile soil in the whole space, so it is no wonder that these three flowers are all crowded together.

After digging out the soil and looking around to make sure there was nothing else, Xu Xin decided to exit the cave and search for the other two caves.

After calling the four beasts, Xu Xin sent a message in [Explorer] as he walked out, telling them the situation in his cave.

As a result, Wang Lei spoke out immediately.

"Brother Xin, you're too late!! I'm being chased by these bugs! Iron armor doesn't protect my face! It hurts me to death!"

this……

Xu Xin had black lines all over his head. This guy actually had the time to reply to the message while he was running away.

Thanks to [Blackcat_] for the reward of 500 starting coins, thank you for your support!
