Starting Off Survival With A Small Treehouse

If this crystal city only shocked him, he really had never imagined that Shi Wanyun was here.

"Shi Wanyun...?" Lou Fei'er was stunned for a second when she heard the name, and then her eyes widened, "Shi Wanyun? Are you Shi Wanyun?! That... the big guy who ranks first in the first district?"

"...Well, it's me. You are..." Shi Wanyun had seen Li Wenxi in the video before, but had never seen Lou Feier.

"I'm Lou Fei'er, you should have heard of my name."

Lou Fei'er also knew about the matter between Xu Xin and Shi Wanyun, so she immediately let go of her hostility.

"Ah, it's you." There was a trace of surprise in Shi Wanyun's soft voice, "That's the one, Lou Feier from District 187, right?"

At that time, what happened to Lou Feier had already spread all over the world and was known to all survivors.

"Hey, that's right, it's me."

"Oh..." Coco had already started to feel drowsy.

It let out a soft cry, looked up at Shi Wanyun, and closed it again.

It's already late at night, and it's already past the little guy's bedtime. It's pretty good to be able to persist until now.

"...So, why are you here?" Xu Xin looked at her.

Her appearance is even more eye-catching than in the video.

She had videotaped with Xu Xin twice in total, the first time she was beaten with disheveled hair and no image, and the second time she had just returned from fleeing for her life and was completely unorganized.

But now, she has obviously dressed up, her hair is simply tied up, her soft face exudes an irresistible affinity, and she is looking at Xu Xin and Lou Fei'er with soft eyes.

"...I don't know too well." Shi Wanyun's eyes flashed blankly, then she shook her head and said, "I just explored around the tree house, but just like last time, I came here after a burst of dizziness. I thought I could meet you here."

"Like last time..."

Xu Xin naturally knew what she said last time.

Last time, she triggered the teleportation around the tree house and was sent directly to the other side of the planet.

In other words, this time, she was also teleported here?

Outrageous...

Why was it just teleported to the ruins directly below his tree house?

In other words, after the last call, the contact between Xu Xin and her was cut off because of the scorching heat. It is still unknown what happened to her on that giant tree.

"So you came directly to us from your district?" Lou Fei'er couldn't believe it, "Is it true? Did you just arrive?"

"No. I have been here for a while, about half an hour, but I have been observing the situation." Shi Wanyun explained, "This place just now is not what you see now. This city was closed just now. Made of stone."

She described the changes just now to the two of them.

"There's this kind of thing..." Xu Xin believed what she said.

Because he was a little puzzled from the very beginning, why there are so many stone chips on the ground around these buildings.

It's the only thing that affects the aesthetics of the city.

And Shi Wanyun's words just explained his doubts.

"Xu Xin..." Lou Fei'er tugged at his arm, "This...can't be caused by us?"

"...It should be."

Xu Xin looked back at the corridor he had just walked out of.

The door was not closed, but was completely open, and they seemed to be able to walk in again at any time.

So, it was they who opened the door and triggered some mechanism, which led to the true appearance of the city being revealed, presenting such an astonishing landscape.

"So, where exactly is this place, and how did you get here?" Shi Wanyun was also puzzled.

Maybe it was because she had experienced the same or even more dangerous incident, or maybe it was because she saw her savior last time. Even though she was teleported to a strange place again, she behaved calmly without panic.

"This is directly under my tree house." Xu Xin only explained, and looked at the crystal city again.

The Crystal Palace in the center of the city has been attracting his attention from the very beginning.

For some reason, he always felt that this crystal palace was somewhat inexplicably familiar.

He really wants to go and see it now.

Reminiscent of the statue with his face engraved on it just above...

He must go and have a look.

but……

"...Why are there bugs here?" Xu Xin sighed.

There are no insects in their current position, but near the Crystal Palace, there is a black swarm of insects.

These insect swarms seemed to be attracted by the brighter light emitted by the Crystal Palace than the surrounding buildings, and most of them surrounded it, all surrounded the Crystal Palace.

"This is also the reason why I didn't go in just now." Shi Wanyun said softly, "Before you came, this area was still dark, and these bugs did not gather near the Crystal Palace, but spread all over the city. They are not interested in survivors like the bugs on the ground, but will actively attack me."

"However, as long as it's outside this archway, it doesn't matter. Although the flying insects will fly out, they lose their aggressiveness." Shi Wanyun continued to explain, "So I've been thinking about countermeasures outside. At this moment, you guys are here."

……is that so.

"You just said that the bugs are in this archway." Xu Xin pointed to the crystal archway emitting white light in front of him, "will it become aggressive?"

"That's right, that's it. I know you want to enter that palace, and I want to enter it too, but you must be careful. The group attack power of those flying insects and reptiles cannot be underestimated." Shi Wanyun looked at the palace and said.

"No way..." Lou Fei'er's expression immediately collapsed, with a sad face, "will attack us? Will our insect repellent potion still work..."

"Insect repellent potion?" Shi Wanyun looked at them with a flick of her eyes.

"Let's take a closer look first." Xu Xin wasn't so kind, there wasn't much of that bottle, and there was very little left, so save as much as you can.

"...I will go with you." Shi Wanyun said.

Xu Xin glanced at her: "Are you... are you really okay? This is under my tree house, do you think you can go back?"

He still has a lot of things he wants to ask Shi Wanyun, but obviously not now.

"If you can't go back, don't you have to work hard to talk about it?" Shi Wanyun asked back, then smiled slightly and shook her head, "Even if you can't go back, if you can take me in, maybe... I can live more easily than before ?”

"It's not maybe, it's for sure!" Lou Fei'er looked sideways at her and said, "Living together is much easier than living alone."

"Okay, don't talk about it, let's go in and have a look." Xu Xin took a deep look at Shi Wanyun, hugged Coco, who had fallen asleep on his shoulder and was a little tottering, in her arms, rubbed its small head, and turned towards the Go to the Crystal City.

Lou Feier followed immediately, and at the same time turned her head and said, "Follow up quickly, we just happen to be walking together."

"good."

Crystal City is indeed beyond their imagination.

All the buildings in the city are made of materials that emit a bright white light.

Xu Xin reached out and touched it, the texture was gentle and delicate.

These buildings seem to be carefully polished jade, and even make people a little fondle admiringly.

What the hell is this place?

...

Shi Wanyun has been walking behind the two of them.

Although she also touched and looked around, her eyes were almost always on Xu Xin.

Her eyes are no longer as gentle as before, but slightly tangled, and a little... cold.

She pursed her lips lightly.

Xu Xin, I finally saw you.

It took a lot of effort.

Didn't you say that I'm not good at lying, that I lie too hard and my acting skills are poor?

I don't know, have you seen through the lie I just told?

Seeing that Xu Xin had a tendency to turn her head, she quietly and calmly looked away, and gently touched the nearby crystal building with her hand.

Everything is so natural.

What should I do now...

To rely on him and tell him everything...

Or, as they say...

kill him?

...

Lou Fei'er turned her head slightly to glance at Shi Wanyun, a look of doubt flashed in her eyes.

She always felt that there was something wrong with this woman.

"Xu Xin, Xu Xin..." Seeing that Shi Wanyun didn't pay attention, Lou Fei'er poked him and said softly, "Do you really believe what Shi Wanyun said? Isn't it a coincidence? Why did it send to us?" Come here? Also, what she said just now always feels a bit...violating?"

"Where is the violation?" Xu Xin glanced at her and said, "Don't think so much, this place is very special, and it's normal for her to send it here, and she has experienced such a thing before. It shouldn't be There are fakes. She is also a great help to us now."

"Is that so..." Xu Xin's words had a great impact on Lou Fei'er. Hearing what Xu Xin said, Lou Fei'er temporarily put down his guard, "Well... maybe I'm thinking too much."

"Don't think too much, let's solve the problem here first."

"Oh good. Coco, Coco, wake up! Exploring!"

"Hey..." Ke Ke's little paw pushed Lou Fei'er's hand away, but she still picked it up.

Xu Xin glanced sideways at Shi Wanyun, Shi Wanyun was looking at them and walking towards them.

Xu Xin smiled slightly, and Shi Wanyun also responded with a soft smile.

He took a light breath.

Of course he didn't let his guard down.

To be honest, Xu Xin was not wary of her when he first met her.

After all, the person I rescued was equivalent to an acquaintance, with such a gentle appearance, and it made people feel very close. The first impression he gave was very good.

But the problem...is also here.

This sense of intimacy is a little too strong.

It was so strong... It was almost the same as the feeling Li Wenxi gave him today.

This instead made Xu Xin suspicious.

Do ordinary people feel this way when meeting him for the first time?

He is not someone who has never seen a beautiful woman. Li Wenxi and Lou Fei'er are no worse than her. Why is it that the first time I met Shi Wanyun, the feeling of intimacy was so strong?

Do you believe in destiny, in the predestined person?

Anyway, Xu Xin didn't believe it.

Therefore, he is now almost certain that this sense of intimacy comes from an ability he is familiar with.

It comes from the ability that Li Wenxi also has today.

[Random Amplification: Affinity Amplification]

That's right, it's this thing.

The random increase is the reward for eliminating the tornado before the night falls in the rainstorm season.

At the beginning, there were many survivors in the world, about fifty or sixty people, who received this reward.

Among them was Shi Wanyun.

Therefore, he has every reason to suspect that the current Shi Wanyun has an affinity booster to increase her affinity.

When she was randomly teleported to his side, her random increase happened to be an affinity increase.

Can such a coincidence really exist?

This is the first point that he feels a little inconsistent.

And the second point is what she said to Xu Xin after they met.

What she explained seems to be a bit too much.

Xu Xin didn't even say a few words, she basically told him everything about the situation here.

With an indifferent expression and a soft tone, she exposed all of her situation to him.

In a very strange and dangerous environment, I completely exposed my situation to him who actually met him for the first time.

Do normal people do this?

If she confided in panic, or joy, he might think there was no problem, but she...

It's so peaceful.

Maybe... it's because she has this kind of character and doesn't show her emotions?

Or, because he is her savior, so he has no reservations?

……Also a possibility.

...Damn it.

Xu Xin rubbed her temples.

Now, because of the influence of affinity, he is looking for reasons for the other party to get rid of the suspicion.

It has to be said that aside from his current suspicions, he has a very strong affection for Shi Wanyun.

Has something like this ever happened before?

No.

It seems that at least Shi Wanyun's increased affinity can basically be hammered.

As for why he didn't agree with Lou Fei'er just now, because...

She might have overheard Lou Feier's conversation with her just now.

After all, she can have an affinity boost, so...why can't she have a hearing boost?

Moreover, her own ability is still unknown so far, it is better to be careful.

He didn't want to startle the snake.

"What's wrong with you? Are you feeling well?" Seeing Xu Xin rubbing her temples, Shi Wanyun immediately approached him, looked into his eyes, and asked with concern in her eyes.

There was nothing wrong with her behavior, after all, he was her savior.

It's normal to care about the savior and put it on anyone.

But is there any motive behind this behavior...

"I'm fine, but I'm a little distressed. After all, this place is too big, and it's basically impossible to explore it comprehensively." Xu Xin said casually.

He didn't ask about Shi Wanyun's affinity increase, even if he did, it wouldn't make any sense.

The other party will definitely say that this is just her random increase today, or that she chose this increase for some reason.

Regardless of whether it was what he thought or not, he could only get such an answer.

Moreover, although the other party may have come prepared, but... it shouldn't be bad for him, right? Maybe it was because she wanted to join him that she did this?

Damn, it was affected by the increase in affinity again, always thinking about the good side!

She was the one who climbed that tree, on that tree...

In short, there may be any problems!

Ask that tree for a while, and try her out.

"Let's just explore that castle." Lou Fei'er glanced at Shi Wanyun, and then said, "I don't think there is anything around here, but Keke couldn't find anything and fell asleep. Quicken your pace!"

Shi Wanyun's affinity made Lou Fei'er not too wary of her, but for some reason, she just felt a little uncomfortable seeing Shi Wanyun's behavior.

It was as if he saw... the shadow of his former self.

"Well, let's speed up the pace." Shi Wanyun said softly, "A few hundred meters ahead, there will be a swarm of insects, you have to be careful."

Xu Xin nodded.

Shi Wanyun, if you are really what I suspect, then you are indeed what I said before.

won't lie.

Because your lies are the same as last time, you always use too much force, which makes people suspicious.

Lou Fei'er suspected Shi Wanyun just now, maybe it's because professionals have seen the clue. After all, if it wasn't for the hearing enhancement, he might have died under Lou Fei'er's extremely comprehensive acting skills.

By contrast...

Shi Wanyun was still much inferior.

Of course, this is based on the premise that she does have problems.

If she's okay, that's great.

Area 1, the lone wolf in the second strongest area, if there is no problem, he will definitely keep her.

Several people speeded up and quickly approached the swarm.

At this time, in front of them, near the position of the insect swarm, there was a sound...

The sound of the door being pushed open?

"What sound?" Lou Feier asked in surprise.

Who is it again? !

"The bugs outside are far away, they can come out!"

Lou Feier's eyes lit up immediately: "Ah, it's Xiao Taozi!"
