Starting Off Survival With A Small Treehouse

Xu Xin chose to keep this man.

Although this man looks very stupid, but he is the owner of a world tree,

And from what he said, it was learned that this man's father belonged to the management of the survivors. Although he could not speak much among the alien invaders, he still had a transcendent status among humans.

Keep him, he may be of great use in the future.

But naturally we can't make him too comfortable.

Xu Xin directly let the treasure box monster who had not been released for a long time in his bracelet appear on the stage, and let the treasure box monster swallow the man directly into his stomach.

Xu Xin nodded with satisfaction at the frightened and desperate look in the man's eyes at the last second as he was swallowed by the Mimic.

"Don't kill him, keep him alive." Xu Xin told the Mimic.

The cover of the Mimic opened and closed "click-click" up and down twice.

Xu Xin put the Mimic away again.

"I didn't expect that you actually have such a thing, brother?" Xu Ying was surprised at this time, "Mimic monsters? This is really... Is this another genetic experiment done by those alien invaders on some creature? product, right?”

"...Can genetic experiments still produce such a thing?"

"Probably. Who knows? Anyway, those alien invaders look much weirder than this Mimic. I wouldn't be surprised if they could make something like this."

Xu Xin and the two first went back to the location of the explorer in the World Tree and explained the situation.

Then, with Li Wenxi's somewhat worried instructions, the two left.

…

Looking at the towering tree in front of them and the endless sea behind them, Xu Xin and Xu Ying were both shocked.

Xu Xin looked at Xu Ying, spread her hands and said, "It seems that they have no control over the underground world under the ocean."

The roots of the World Tree will penetrate into the underground world along the underground of the island, affecting the underground world.

"...Not necessarily. Although there is an island ground here, it is not necessarily where the support pillars are, right?" Xu Ying retorted.

"If not, why would they plant the World Tree here?" Xu Xin shrugged.

"Hmm... it's possible." Xu Ying thought for a moment, then reassured, "But it doesn't matter. The location of our underground human base is perfect. There are no islands on it, and it's not near the support pillars."

"That's good."

Xu Xin turned to look at World Tree.

"I don't know if those three people got any information." Xu Ying looked at the World Tree and wondered how to enter it, "Have they already arrived? Or haven't they arrived yet?"

At the same time, Xu Xin thought, and a nearby map appeared in his mind.

There is no life on the land, neither red dots nor green dots. This kind of thing is obvious, after all, the island is completely bare, with basically nothing except a World Tree.

But things are not so safe in the ocean.

Xu Xin discovered that about two hundred meters away from the coast of the island, there were densely packed scarlet light spots, which were constantly swimming in that area.

The brightness of each of these light spots exceeds that of intermediate mutant creatures!

They all gathered at this distance, and although they were swimming, no one dared to cross this line.

Although Xu Xin did not have a map of the entire island, he speculated that the entire island was surrounded by these creatures.

"The sea is not safe." Xu Xin looked at the horizon.

He could see nothing with the naked eye.

"Well, it's indeed not safe. There are a lot of monsters in the sea." Xu Ying also looked back, "But it doesn't matter if it's the seaside here, because it's guarded by the World Tree, and those sea monsters don't dare to approach."

Xu Ying explained briefly.

If there is no World Tree planted on it, those sea monsters may not be interested in this island, but they may land on this island from time to time, such as turtles breeding and laying eggs.

And with this World Tree above, although the sea monsters didn't dare to approach, they were firmly attracted here.

It's like a swarm of flying insects flying around the light bulb but unable to actually touch the light source.

The World Tree is the wick in the light bulb, and the sea monster is the flying insects.

This is also the reason why it is surrounded by a large circle of scarlet light spots.

"Don't worry, those sea monsters can't get in." Xu Ying no longer paid attention to the sea level, but looked at the World Tree, "We... go there?"

"Is there a way to get in?" Xu Xin asked.

"That person gave me the coordinates of the World Tree. In fact... I can teleport in directly." Xu Ying explained, "But according to what he said, there is his boss there..."

"The 'boss' he mentioned should be just humans, right?" Xu Xin asked, "They should be the survivors of the invasion."

"Well, it's not dangerous for me. I'm just worried that my existence will be discovered and spread to the other hemisphere..." Xu Ying hesitated for a moment, then shook her head and said, "Forget it, the boat will go straight to the bridge. , let’s go in and take a look first.”

As she said that, she took Xu Xin's arm.

…

Lou Feier and the other three were already inside the World Tree.

"Here..." Lou Feier was a little surprised.

Is this what the inside of a normal World Tree looks like...

A normal World Tree is actually a big tree house.

The interior height of the big tree house is more than 100 meters, the range can reach about one kilometer, and the internal space is also very large.

Of course, compared with the tree house they had over there that was affected by time and space, this place was still a little stretched.

Inside the World Tree over there is a vast wasteland.

"Why is it empty here?" Jin Yue asked doubtfully.

Indeed, as she said, it was completely empty.

There are no floors, no rooms, no passages, no elevators.

It's just an empty place.

Shi Wanyun was also confused.

This is completely different from the internal structure of the World Tree she saw last time on the other hemisphere of the earth.

"Because no one lives in this World Tree." At this time, a deep male voice came from behind the three women.

The three women immediately looked back at the same time.

I saw a masked person standing behind them, only two meters away from them.

He was dressed in black, and he was much taller than the three of them. The only eye exposed on the mask looked down at them slightly, with a kind of...

Pretending to be mysterious.

Lou Feier complained in her heart.

If she didn't know the truth of this world, she might really be bluffed by this guy.

But they already know the truth, as long as he is not a monster, but a human being, he is at most a survivor from thousands of years ago.

The truth is there is nothing to be afraid of.

Of course, she wouldn't show it. At this time, she looked at the masked man behind her with a surprised expression: "You... When did you appear behind us?!"

Jin Yue subconsciously put her hand on the weapon at her waist, and looked at the masked man solemnly.

The man in the mask watched Jin Yue's movements, and his brows were clearly frowned from the eyes exposed in the mask.

At this time, Shi Wanyun put her hand on Jin Yue's and pressed her hand down: "Don't worry, he won't hurt us."

As she said that, she turned her head to look at the masked man, and asked tentatively, "Was that the task you... gave me just now?"

The masked man nodded slowly when he heard this.

! !

Shi Wanyun's pupils trembled.

This guy……

It's that mysterious voice! ?

According to the speculations of the explorers, the mysterious voice cannot be an alien invader, because even the half-human, half-monster alien invader cannot fluently speak human prophecies.

Therefore, that mysterious voice should be a human being, or in other words, a survivor from thousands of years ago.

Unexpectedly, it turned out to be the man in front of me? !

"Are you thinking that after you came to this world, the mysterious voice you heard was me?" The man's voice was still low.

"...Ah?" Lou Fei'er's eyes were rounded by her, "You are that mysterious voice?!"

Jin Yue also shrank her pupils.

The mission sent by that mysterious voice killed millions of people!

Even her painful encounter was inseparable from that mysterious voice!

"I am, and I am not." The man shook his head slowly, "I am not the only one who gives orders to you survivors. And I am in charge of Districts 1 to 5."

The man's words shocked everyone present.

"It turns out that different people are responsible for the mysterious sounds in each area?" Lou Feier exclaimed.

Shi Wanyun's eyes rolled slightly: "You mean, you are only responsible for these three areas? Then when I was in Area 188, the voice that contacted me was..."

"That's not me, that's the person in charge over there, responsible for areas 186 to 190, but now he has been replaced."

It turned out to be like this.

Shi Wanyun suddenly realized.

No wonder she felt that the mysterious voices in the two areas gave her completely different feelings. When she contacted her several times in Area 188, she felt a little... careless, but when she was in Area 1, the mysterious voice seemed steady. A lot.

It turns out they are not the same person at all.

"What I want to say is that everything you have encountered was organized by us. We have the power to deal with you at will."

The man's voice continued to come out from under the mask.

"And we are the human species in this world, the human kingdom that has been established in this world."

Lou Fei'er was stunned, as if her head had been burned.

Jin Yue's face was expressionless, but her eyes moved.

The two of them had actually known about this for a long time, so naturally they had no worries in their hearts, but they still had to pretend.

Shi Wanyun smiled and said: "Ah, I know this, and I have already contacted some of your people."

"Wait a minute!" Lou Fei'er interrupted Shi Wanyun and looked at the masked man, "In other words, so many people were killed by you? Why are you doing this!"

“It’s not that we want to do it, it’s that God wants us to do it.”

The man was not dissatisfied with Lou Fei'er's tone, but explained calmly: "It was the gods who brought you to this world."

On the side, Xu Ying, who was sitting on the ground wearing a cloak of a hider, curled her lips.

gods.

hehe.

The heads of these guys have been really washed.

Of course, she was used to seeing this kind of people in that time and space.

Xu Xin, on the other hand, was very interested in this person and had been listening attentively.

He even wanted to ask him questions on behalf of Lou Feier.

"Gods?" Lou Feier murmured, "The one who brought us to this world...is it the gods?"

"Yeah. They are gods. They are extremely powerful and we can't resist at all. So we have no choice but to do these things." The man looked at them. "What we can do is complete our mission and ensure the safety of those who survive." Safety."

What he said was righteous.

Xu Ying curled her lips again.

She knew very well what kind of character these lackeys were.

These words were obviously meant to deceive the three daughters of Lou Feier.

"But now, there is a big problem on your side." The man's eyes under the mask were stern. "If this continues, none of you survivors will survive."

"No one can survive..." Shi Wanyun repeated in a low voice.

The masked man looked at her: "You...have already met our gods, right?"

Shi Wanyun nodded slightly.

Thinking of what the monster looked like at that time, a flash of fear flashed in her eyes.

The psychological shadow at that time was not easy to eliminate.

"It seems that you have also seen the terror of the gods." The masked man said solemnly, "In front of the gods, we don't even have the courage to stand. They are completely unable to resist."

He said to Shi Wanyun: "Now, please explain to them your experience at that time."

Although Lou Fei'er and Jin Yue had already heard about those experiences, after hearing what the masked man said, they still pretended to listen carefully to Shi Wanyun's story.

"Is it as scary as you said..."

Lou Feier said with some fear.

"You did something that made the gods uncomfortable. You planted the World Tree."

The masked man continued, while slowly turning his head to look around and inside the World Tree.

"This World Tree is a gift from the gods, but you own it privately. Your actions have angered them. If you don't find a way to destroy your World Tree, all of you will die because of it."

"Gods?" Lou Feier asked, "Are there many more gods? How many are there?"

"...This is not a question you should ask." The masked man frowned.

"Okay..." Lou Feier shrank her neck a little aggrievedly.

The masked man continued: "As humans, we can already control your life and death at will. For gods, it is effortless to let you die."

At this time, Jin Yue spoke and asked in a skeptical tone: "If the gods are really so powerful, why don't they use their power to destroy our World Tree?"

"Because if God really takes action, it won't be so simple." The masked man said solemnly, "Just like you saw a few cockroaches eating your food, and you know where these cockroaches' nests are, What would you do? Just kill the few cockroaches that are eating your food?"

The three women were silent.

Xu Ying's mouth turned to the back of her head at this time.

This guy is really full of crap.

If the World Tree could be destroyed casually, it would not be called the World Tree.

"So, before the gods really take action, we must show our sincerity and produce results that can suppress their anger."

At this time, Lou Feier said: "Well, if I join you now, can you let me survive? Is that why you came to us this time?"

Her tone was a little uneasy, and she looked at Mian Junan cautiously, for fear that he would disagree.

"This is my purpose." The masked man nodded slowly and looked at the three women: "I need you to do something."

The three women said nothing and all looked at him.

"Become an undercover agent, become the top of the World Tree, and control the power to enter and exit the World Tree at any time."

"Also...find an opportunity to kill that Xu Xin, and do it cleanly."

As he spoke, he threw a small bottle to Shi Wanyun.

In the bottle are two pills.

Shi Wanyun's eyes moved.

At this time, the pill that the monster asked her to take!

"You know the effects of this pill. Let these two people take it."

Shi Wanyun was silent for a moment, handed the pills to the two women, and said to them: "Take it."

The two women looked at the pills in their hands and hesitated.

"What's the use of this pill?" Lou Fei'er sniffed it and turned to look at the masked man.

The masked man said nothing.

"It's okay." Shi Wanyun advised, "Just eat it."

All three of them have been injected with genetic medicine, and this pill is useless to them.

At least Shi Wanyun is now completely free from the control of the pill.

"……All right."

Lou Feier and Jin Yue both took the pills.

"Let her tell you what the pill does."

The masked man glanced at Shi Wanyun.

"Remember the two tasks I mentioned, don't let me down. Also, take time every day to go to areas outside the influence of the World Tree, and I will contact you later. Now, Shi Wanyun, you can already draw the teleportation formation. Teleported back to your own treehouse."

With that said, he stopped staying and turned around.

Then, he stepped on the teleportation pattern drawn there on the ground at an unknown time, and with a flash of purple-black light, he disappeared from the spot.

"...Huh?" Lou Fei'er looked at where the masked man disappeared, "Just... left?"

She was really surprised.

Just say a few words and plan to instigate them to rebel?

Does he think that normal people are so easily instigated?

"The pill you took is very powerful." Shi Wanyun said with a smile, "If the other party is willing, he can let you die at any time, or he can turn you into a...whole body is covered with down. monster."

"...Ah?!" Lou Fei'er was a little panicked, really panicked, "Hey, hey, we won't..."

Isn’t it really going to be hairy all over your body? !

To her, this was simply more terrifying than death!

But she didn't ask, because she didn't know if anyone else was watching them in the empty world tree where they were now.

Did that man really leave just now?

And in this world tree, is there really no one else?

You can't talk casually now.

Let’s wait until we get back completely before we talk.

"I have no choice but to do what he said. You don't want to go against the god who brought you into this world, do you?" Shi Wanyun asked back.

"Well...of course not, but...oh, I just feel that it would be a pity to kill Xu Xin..." Lou Fei'er looked regretful, then touched her smooth chin and thought, "Hey, tell me, before you kill him, can you let me put him... that's... hehe."

She chuckled.

"He is my savior." Jin Yue glanced at Lou Fei'er and said, "It's okay to kill him to save all survivors, but if you want to insult him, I will never allow it."

"How can this be called an insult?" Lou Fei'er spread her hands, "I'm not an ugly person. Maybe he also wants to have a good time before he dies? I will tell him at the next moment to make him feel comfortable serving me. , he doesn’t have to die, then he will definitely work hard...hehehe..."

Xu Xin, who was sitting on the ground beside her, twitched her eyes.

Although she is acting, this woman...

What a shameless talk.

"Then now, the three of us have the same mission." Shi Wanyun smiled and looked at Lou Fei'er, "Now, you are also a traitor, so you don't have to look at me all the time, right?"

"You can't call me a traitor." Lou Fei'er licked her lips and smiled, "Both sides are human beings. I just... stood on the side of humanity and the side of justice. Xu Xin and the others wanted to harm Kill everyone, they are the traitors."

"You're just on the side where you can survive." Jin Yue shook her head.

"It's almost the same meaning." Lou Fei'er smiled, "Don't you too?"

Xu Xin was speechless.

This woman's acting skills have always been terrifying.

He must feel that this woman really said that.

At this moment, Xu Ying, who was sitting beside her, had a flash in her eyes.

That man is finally gone now.

Just now, his teleportation was fake, he just teleported to another position in the world tree, and he has been observing the three women.

After hearing what the three women had just said, he left in peace.

But now, in this world tree, on this deserted island, there is no one else.
