Starting Off Survival With A Small Treehouse

Xu Xin looked at his watch, it was past seven in the morning.

The sun had just risen from the sky, and although only half of his face was exposed, it illuminated the entire forest, causing the white snow covering the forest to reflect a dazzling white light, which made him unable to open his eyes.

It gets dark at four or five o'clock in the afternoon, and it's just dawn at seven o'clock. The cold winter night is really long.

"Huh?" Coco, who was awakened by the cold wind, climbed onto the window sill, looked out, and then yelled in surprise, "Huh!"

Keke was already asleep when it snowed yesterday, so it didn't see the heavy snow falling. At this time, it was very surprised. It poked its head and looked out the window. It almost fell, but was pulled back by Xu Xin .

The canopy of the tree house outside the window is also covered with white snow. The canopy will not block Xu Xin's view, but the white snow will.

He stretched out his hand and shook the canopy of the tree, the snow layer that had originally blocked his eyes scattered to the ground one after another, and his vision became clear again.

A few hundred meters away, the lake like a reservoir has been completely frozen, and a layer of ice that looks very thick has formed on the surface of the lake, which has frozen the lake.

"Ice is good, it's better that the giant anaconda in the middle of the lake is frozen inside, and don't come out again." Xu Xin said to himself.

Another gust of cold wind blew in, chilling the bone marrow, making the temperature of the whole room much lower.

He hastily closed the window.

The snow doesn't cool down and the snow turns cold. Now the temperature is definitely below minus ten degrees.

A map appeared in Xu Xin's mind.

To his relief, there were still no red dots on the map, indicating that the surrounding area was still safe for the time being.

At this time, a voice rang in his ear.

[It is detected that the decoration degree of the tree house is greater than 500, and the random increase of today is obtained: the increase of bouncing ability, and the effect lasts for one day. At the same time, you can choose the second increase in the historical increase. 】

Bounce increase?

As soon as the voice fell, he felt a warm current flowing on his legs, and he felt that his legs became very powerful.

Today's ability is to be able to jump higher?

He tried to hop lightly.

"Ooh!"

His feet left the ground in an instant, and the moment his head was about to hit the ceiling, he immediately reached out to block it.

Only by supporting the ceiling with both hands did he avoid the farce of directly hitting the ceiling with his head.

With a "click", Xu Xin landed on the ground.

"Hey!" Ke Ke was startled by Xu Xin's sudden jump, standing on the ground and looking at him with her head tilted.

This feeling is amazing!

Just now, he was also afraid of hitting his head on the ceiling, so he didn't use any force at all in that jump, it was just a slight attempt.

With his strength just now, that is, a small jump on tiptoe slightly off the ground, unexpectedly, he almost hit the ceiling.

With a slight movement, it jumped more than one meter high!

If this is really a hard jump, how high it must be!

Moreover, he could feel that now, with these legs, no matter how high he jumped from, he probably wouldn't get injured.

Looking at the white snow on the ground outside the window, he even had the urge to jump directly to try.

In his tree house, the height of the third floor is nearly 20 meters, comparable to the height of a six or seven-story building.

Even so, he still felt that if he jumped from the window, he should be unscathed.

Shaking his head, he drove this deadly thought out of his mind, and began to choose his second boost today.

After thinking about it, he chose the hearing boost for his second boost.

Today there may be animal swarms and other situations. He needs his ears to be used as human body radar, and he is always vigilant about the surrounding environment, so that he will not be unprepared in case of emergencies.

The limitation of his map is still a bit big, and he can't always pay attention to the map in his mind. But hearing is different, he can hear any disturbance, which is equivalent to the ability to passively detect the surroundings.

After choosing hearing augmentation, all the small sounds around him were transmitted to his ears.

Nothing unusual so far.

Walking out of the bedroom, Mimi and Yin Wang were lazily lying on the edge of the fireplace and warming the fire, and Ah Fu was also lying on Mimi's body.

Although it was cold outside, the inside of the tree house was still warm thanks to the fireplace.

Xu Xin immediately sent a voice message to Ma Hongwei, asking him if he wanted to come over or guard his tree house.

"I won't go there. With the heavy crossbow and the power grid downstairs, it should still be defensible. I don't want the tree house to be destroyed, and then clean up the inside of the tree house again." Ma Hongwei replied.

"Your weak period hasn't passed yet, has it?"

"Well, but it doesn't matter. I didn't have much combat power at first. With the strength recovered now, it is enough to control the control panel."

"Okay, if you can't hold on after the beast horde hits, please contact me."

Xu Xin hung up the call.

At this time, his watch vibrated again, and it was Lou Feier's voice: "Have you had breakfast? I have cooked a lot. I just contacted Wenxi, and she will come over to eat."

Xu Xin was a little surprised: "You really cooked for everyone."

"Didn't you say that I was responsible for cooking for everyone?"

"Okay, I'll go now."

Xu Xin smiled helplessly, Li Wenxi is really an optimist, she dared to come here for dinner at this juncture.

Xu Xin left the mutated animal meat for Yin Wang and Mimi, and then swung down the tree house with Ke Ke.

The canopy of the tree house has also been covered with snow. But thanks to the dense canopy that blocks the snow, there is no snow in the area below the tree house.

Moreover, Xu Xin could feel that the temperature near the tree house was not very low, and it was actually above zero!

The most obvious thing is that the pool he dug near the tree house has not frozen, and the two channels leading to the pool have been completely frozen outside the area more than 50 meters away from the tree house, let alone the water in the distance. of lake water.

The tree house can actually keep the surrounding temperature from getting too low!

Is this what the treehouse core does?

Aifei got out of the hole.

"Is this temperature okay? Do you want to go to the tree house?" Xu Xin asked Aifei.

Concubine Ai let out a crisp cry and shook her head, expressing that she didn't need it.

Standing at the entrance of the cave, Xu Xin could feel the heat gushing out from the cave.

It's quite warm inside the cave. What is the principle?

Xu Xin glanced inside curiously, and found that two little guys were lying on the exposed roots of the tree house, flicking their tails up and down.

...treehouse roots? Do the roots of the tree house dissipate heat?

He immediately slid down the hole.

Although the cave is not as warm as the tree house, it still has a temperature of more than ten degrees. For the few mutated pangolins, this temperature is not a problem.

He touched the exposed roots of the tree house, and sure enough, it was still warm to the touch, and it kept emitting warmth.

No wonder, no wonder it is still warmer within 50 meters, and it can continue to be planted. It turns out that the roots of the tree house are working.

He thought of the core of his blue-level tree house that has been useless, and it has a similar function in his hand.

It seems that the roots of the tree house near the tree house emit heat, which should be the ability given by the core of the purple tree house in his tree house.

"Hey..." Ke Ke looked at the two little pangolins who were already a circle bigger than him, and suddenly stood up, raising his hands to scare each other.

The two little pangolins were still lying on the roots of the tree house, flicked their tails, and yelled at Ke Ke, not being frightened by it at all.

Xu Xin also teased the two little pangolins, and brought Ke Ke back to the ground.

Outside the area covered by the tree canopy, the snow on the ground was nearly half a meter thick, to the extent that it could seriously affect the movement.

Xu Xin stepped into the snow layer.

Because it was the snowflakes that fell last night, this layer of snow was relatively soft. He looked up at the window of the tree house hidden in the tree canopy, and his body bent down slightly.

"Huh...huh?!"

He kicked his feet suddenly, and in an instant, his whole body flew straight into the sky like a rocket!

"Huh?!" Ke Ke yelled in horror as her four claws grabbed onto his body tightly.

Xu Xin jumped to the highest point, just like controlling the roots to enter the tree house, the canopy of the tree house will actively avoid him.

He grabbed the window of the tree house, turned around and sat on the window sill as soon as he stretched his arms.

"My God..." Looking at the ground twenty meters away from him, he himself was stunned by this jump.

Behind him now is the third floor of the tree house.

This jump is a height of twenty meters!

Moreover, he didn't try his best, he felt that he could jump higher!

What a powerful jump boost!

"Hey!" Ke Ke jumped onto the window sill and complained to Xu Xin, waving his paws, "Hey!"

It was quite frightened.

"Okay, Keke, let's go down." Xu Xin sat on the window sill, picked up Keke and hugged her in her arms, and jumped down directly.

"Oh!" Coco screamed again.

"Pfft!" Xu Xin fell into the snow without any injuries, but Coco's little paws in her arms touched him around, as if checking whether he was injured.

This increase in jumping ability is also an outrageous ability!

Not only can he jump very high, but also let him jump from a high place, and he can remove all the impact force with only his legs and will not suffer any damage.

"Okay, don't touch it anymore, isn't it all right?" Xu Xin touched Ke Ke's little head that was still trembling in his arms, and continued to walk outside.

The further he walked, the more he could feel that the temperature was gradually dropping.

"Hey..." Coco shrank into a ball and nestled into his arms, and the big tail was hugged by itself in his arms to keep warm.

"call--"

He continued to walk out through the snow, and when he reached a position about fifty meters away from the tree house, he let out a breath of white air and shrunk his neck.

The bone-piercing chill penetrated through his purple scale armor and soaked into his body, making him feel the long-lost cold.

The temperature is almost twenty degrees below zero!

The warming effect of his scale armor has no effect.

Not to mention other people's blue-level suits, they must have been useless.

Xu Xin stretched out his hand and pushed open the door of the high-voltage power grid. The iron wire was so cold that he rubbed his hands.

At this time, above the coordinates around him, the purple vortex began to condense, and with a special sound, the exit of the portal was opened.

The purple-black vortex fluctuated, and Li Wenxi jumped out of it, stepping into the half-meter-thick snow, her face flushed from the cold.

She saw Xu Xin at a glance, and she was not surprised. She rushed towards him and hugged him: "It's so cold! Ah, Keke!"

She reached out and touched Coco's little head, which was caught in the arms of the two.

"Oh!" Coco also responded.

She was wearing blue leather armor, and Xu Xin could feel that her body was also shivering from the cold.

"The scales are so cold!" Li Wenxi grabbed Xu Xin's hand and covered her face.

A cold and tender feeling came from Xu Xin's hands, and Li Wenxi also showed a small expression of comfort, "Your hands are so warm..."

"It's so cold to come here, are you alone?" Xu Xin squeezed her cold face slightly with her fingers, and asked.

"Well, Yajun and Leyoufang are both in my tree house now. It's strange to say that they can control the control panel in my tree house, so I just asked them to help me put a whistle, and I'll come over for a meal , go back after eating, hehe... ah... achoo!"

Li Wenxi sneezed and rubbed her nose: "Well...it's so cold, let's go inside quickly."

"Okay, let's go there." The two walked through the snow together and walked towards Lou Fei'er's tree house.

"This snow layer is really thick. It's not convenient for us to move around outside." Li Wenxi put her legs against the snow in front of her and kicked her twice from time to time.

"But in this way, the beasts in the beast horde will not be able to move easily. It can be regarded as a natural barrier." Xu Xin thinks it is a good thing.

"Right!"

Xu Xin thought about another thing.

Regarding what Li Wenxi just said, Li Yajun and Le Youfang can manipulate the control panel in her tree house.

He had some clearer thoughts in his mind.

Lou Feier can also operate the control panel in Ma Hongwei's parasitic tree house.

On the map, Li Wenxi has no display and no light spots, while Lou Feier and Ma Hongwei are the green light spots of his companions.

This shows that for him, Li Wenxi is still a neutral unit, while Lou Feier and Ma Hongwei are recognized companions.

Before, he always felt that it was because of the contract.

No, there is indeed a reason for the contract, because the moment they made the contract, the light spot turned from red to green.

But even if there is no contract, maybe the parasites who are also the main tree house will be considered friendly units?

Perhaps it is precisely because of this that although they cannot manipulate each other's tree house to enter and exit, they can control each other's things in the tree house.

That should be the case.

This is much more convenient, but...

Are he and Li Wenxi still considered companions now...

What about after that?
