Starting Off Survival With A Small Treehouse

Xu Xin was silent for half a minute, and then sighed.

"Don't forget, we still have scarlet crystals in two places that haven't been destroyed. How can we leave so early?"

The passage made of scarlet crystal inside the World Tree, and the foot of the mountain made of scarlet crystal inside the giant ship.

Although these two scarlet crystals are not concentrated scarlet crystals, they are very large, several times the size of the concentrated scarlet crystal.

If it can be destroyed, it should be destroyed.

"...Yeah." Xu Ying rubbed her eyes and nodded.

"Then it's time for us to get rid of this giant ship."

Xu Xin looked at the sea of ​​machines.

The mechanical sea is operating in a very twisted and chaotic manner.

"Blow it up. The main gun of this giant ship has been used up, and other weapons will not be so powerful. In order to prevent alien invaders from continuing to use it, we should blow up this place first." Xu Ying said.

"Okay. Let's go back first."

…

Back in the control room, Li Wenxi immediately pounced on him.

"What's going on? Why did you send us back just now? What on earth did you talk about?" she asked, "You don't want to go back to that underground space!"

"No, of course not." Xu Xin shook his head, "But there is one more thing we need to do."

Xu Xin told them about the two non-condensed scarlet crystals.

"We still have to collect those scarlet crystals," he said.

"Then let's start now? Do you still want to cut?" Zhao Xiaochuan took out the cutter and asked.

"No, no need." Xu Ying explained, "Those are unconcentrated scarlet crystals, and ordinary nuclear bombs are enough to destroy them."

"Ah, that's not too simple." Qin Fu half-sat on the console, "Let's go directly now, put down the nuclear bomb, detonate it, run away, and it's over. Then we can go back to World Tree and sleep."

"Why are you sleeping? Don't forget, there is still a crisis over there at World Tree." Lou Feier reminded.

"Crisis? The alien invaders' lair has been destroyed like this. Is the crisis over there over?"

Xu Xin's eyes moved.

Calculating the time, it has actually passed the time when the World Tree fell in Ji Chaoyang's fable.

Has World Tree fallen?

maybe.

His fables are subject to change.

But it's just possible.

Therefore, there are two possibilities for the situation of the World Tree over there now.

One is that the World Tree has fallen, and Ji Chaoyang and the others lead everyone to escape to the World Tree on the sea.

Second, they defended successfully.

No matter which result, Xu Xin can accept it.

As long as no one dies.

Anyway, even if the World Tree is destroyed, it will be restored immediately.

As for the destruction of the World Tree, no one ran away...

Xu Xin felt that Ji Chaoyang could not make such a mistake.

Just trust him.

"Then we only have this last step left now."

Zeng Tao trotted to the side of the screen and looked at the roots of the World Tree that had been blasted through by the main gun of the giant ship.

"Look, the root is exposed, it's really penetrated!"

The roots of the World Tree have no soil at all.

Although the root system is entangled, it looks brand new just like before.

It was obviously regrown.

In other words, the scarlet crystal fragments inside must have been attacked.

As for the results of the attack...

Not sure yet.

But as Xu Xin and Xu Ying said before, even if there are still scarlet crystal remnants, the alien invaders will not be able to make any waves for the time being.

"I don't think we need so many people to act together." Xu Ying suddenly said, "Brother and I can act together."

Xu Xin glanced at her but said nothing.

"Ah? How could it be possible for only the two of you to go?" Wen Guixin disagreed on the spot, "We'd better not separate. Last time we left, we waited for a long time."

"Yes, and if we are separated, it is better to be safer together." Wang Lei also said, "You can't put us here, right?"

Things are so chaotic here now that separation is never an option.

"You...just stay in my brother's bracelet."

Xu Ying looked at them and said: "The operation needs to be secretive. With so many people, it is not easy to move, and it is difficult for me to transport people."

After a minute of discussion, everyone finally decided to let Xu Xin and Xu Ying complete this task.

This task does not require so many people to complete.

Moreover, only these two people have been to those two places, and the others are not very familiar with them.

"Okay, let's take a break then." Wen Guixin gently twisted her neck, glanced at the roots of the world tree that had been shot outside, and relaxed.

The most important task of coming here this time has been completed, and they all really want to take a rest.

"Brother Xin, come on! We really need to take a rest. After cutting for so long, our eyes will go blind." Zhao Xiaochuan rubbed his eyes.

Being exposed to the super strong scarlet light all the time, even if you are wearing a protective film, is a bit unbearable.

Although Lou Feier and Jin Yue wanted to stay outside, they just glanced at Xu Ying and said nothing in the end.

"Then the next task will be left to you!" Zeng Tao was put into the bracelet heartlessly.

The last person left behind was Li Wenxi.

"You two, please don't do anything dangerous." Li Wenxi grabbed their hands and said, "Our mission this time has been completed very successfully!"

"Besides, if something happens to you, we won't be able to get out of the bracelet!"

"Don't worry, sister-in-law." Xu Ying said with a smile, "How could I risk your lives?"

"Well, then I'm relieved." Li Wenxi nodded, took the initiative to grab Xu Xin's bracelet, and took a deep look at him.

Then it disappeared.

Together with Coco, who was sleeping in her arms.

"So, you really won't do anything dangerous?"

Xu Xin turned to look at her.

"What?" Xu Ying stuck out her tongue, "You are the one holding the bracelet, not me. I just want to ensure your safety."

She seems to have regained her original cheerful personality.

"You..." Xu Xin frowned.

"It's better to tell them the truth directly." He said softly.

"Tell them what? I'm going to die? No need." Xu Ying shrugged slightly, "It affects the emotions of both parties."

"Okay. Let's go then."

…

"boom!!!!!"

A minute later, a very violent explosion occurred in the giant ship's power system and the scarlet crystal mountain.

Crazy explosions and radiation swept through the entire hull of the giant ship.

Xu Xin and Xu Ying stood dozens of kilometers away from the giant ship and saw the super giant ship standing in the desert slowly turning sideways and crashing to the ground.

The violent explosion actually caused a hole to be blown out of this huge ship that had already experienced a great war and looked dilapidated!

Looking at the location, the loophole is the head of the giant ship, the location of the scarlet crystal mountain.

Because it was close to the control room of the giant ship, Xu Xin and the others added a little more material to try to scrap the giant ship directly.

Unexpectedly, the hull of the ship was directly blown through!

Thick smoke emerged from the loophole in the bow of the giant ship. Because there was no strong wind at this time, it rose straight upward.

The smoke was very thick, so even though it rose hundreds or thousands of meters, it did not disperse.

The lonely smoke in the desert is straight.

However, this solitary smoke is not kitchen smoke, but the thick smoke after the nuclear bomb explodes.

This solitary smoke is like a wolf smoke, very conspicuous in the vast desert.

As if telling all other alien invaders that the giant ship was destroyed.

"It was actually blown through. I didn't expect that." Xu Ying said with some surprise.

"We blasted it internally. Maybe the internal protection is much lower than the external one." Xu Xin said.

"Really, when they built this giant ship, they never thought that someone would use a nuclear bomb inside." Xu Ying said with a smile.

"Then the next step is inside the World Tree."

Xu Xin looked at the World Tree whose roots were blown through.

Although the root was blasted through for a moment, the upper part was not affected at all.

The dense canopy of trees still blocks out the sun.

"Let's go."

…

The interior of the World Tree canopy was indeed not affected at all.

Even the alien invaders living inside are still very leisurely.

They don't know what's going on outside.

However, Xu Xin heard several alien invaders discussing the "earthquake" just now.

They still felt the vibrations of the World Tree.

But it was just a shock.

This shock did not have any impact on their lives. It seemed to be just... chatting after tea and dinner.

They feel from the bottom of their hearts that this place is extremely safe and there will never be any danger here.

But now, two men who pose a terrifying danger to them have arrived.

"The last thirteen nuclear bombs are all placed here." Xu Ying said.

Ten rounds were placed on the corridor, and three rounds were placed in the scarlet crystal room.

Xu Ying looked at the closed door at the end of the corridor: "When these nuclear bombs explode, the entire World Tree will definitely be affected. They are dead."

"What, you still feel sorry for the alien invaders?" Xu Xin turned to look at her and asked.

"Not at all, they just died. They just thought of our experiences. The alien invaders here may be just like us thousands of years ago."

Xu Ying sighed.

"In the midst of a prosperous age, a crisis suddenly strikes, and then you die. Hey, it would be great if none of this happened."

"If all this had not happened, I and you would have been dead for nearly a thousand years. If we had not been cremated, our bones would have become fossils."

"Fossils take more than ten thousand years to form, you..."

Xu Ying was about to say something when she suddenly stopped.

"What's wrong……"

"Shhh."

She looked towards the small room.

"Transportation device, there is a situation!"

With that said, she grabbed Xu Xin's arm.

The two of them were originally in the corridor, but were teleported to the small room in an instant.

At this moment, the transmission device also lit up with purple-black light.

A huge alien invader appears.

"————————?!?! (It's over, it's over...what is this?!?!)"

Xu Xin and Xu Ying's pupils suddenly shrank.

It turned out to be the leader of the alien invaders!

It's not dead!

The two looked at each other, and in an instant, Xu Ying teleported away with Xu Xin.

Then the next second, Xu Xin immediately detonated the thirteen nuclear bombs remotely!

…

The entire dense green crown of the World Tree was vibrating crazily.

Countless World Tree leaves fell from above, and there was a heavy rain of World Tree leaves.

Falling towards the large crater that was blasted below.

The tremor caused by the explosion lasted for a full minute before gradually stopping.

And all this was seen by two people who were ten kilometers away from the World Tree.

"You react pretty quickly." Xu Xin turned to look at Xu Ying beside her.

"That's for sure. When I saw that guy, I thought I should blow it up on the spot." Xu Ying kicked the sand and said.

When the alien invader leader teleported over, he had already seen the three nuclear bombs in the room.

At this time, it is most appropriate to leave directly and detonate the nuclear bomb.

"I just didn't expect that the leader of the alien invaders was not killed by the main cannon..." Xu Ying's brows were filled with worry, "It couldn't be that the main cannon didn't actually penetrate the root system..."

"What are you thinking about?" Xu Xin shook her head and said, "Didn't we see the condition of the root system with our own eyes?"

"Yeah...that's right." She murmured, "But...could it be that he walked with me at that time? But it had just entered at that time..."

Xu Xin speculated: "Didn't you tell me? There was extremely high temperature and extremely strong radiation there at that time. This guy couldn't stand it the moment he entered. It's possible that he was teleported out directly."

"Hmm...it seems to make sense."

Although Xu Ying said this, there was still some worry in her eyes.

"So, our mission is over. Do you want to do anything else?" Xu Xin looked at her.

"...At least go and confirm the status of the scarlet crystal." Xu Ying hesitated and said.

"...You don't have to be so anxious. The radiation there is too strong now." Xu Xin looked at the World Tree that was still losing its leaves and said, "Even if we are ten kilometers away now, I feel a little uncomfortable. Let's wait a little longer. Bar."

The radiation must have affected this place more than ten kilometers away.

Xu Xin did feel a little uncomfortable.

He took out a pill and took it, feeling better.

He could not imagine how strong the radiation at the core of the explosion was now.

"I...Okay." Xu Ying compromised, "But just wait a little bit. I think the World Tree will purify the environment inside it. Maybe...it won't be long before there won't be much radiation inside. We’ll go there then.”

"Well, let's wait a little longer and confirm."

Her current abilities are very unstable.

If you take everyone back, they may never be able to teleport back.

According to her, such a long-distance teleportation can only be used for the last time.

If she goes back now, she will only leave with the regret of not knowing whether the alien invaders have been eliminated.

Therefore, she wanted to confirm whether the concentrated scarlet crystal was destroyed here.

"boom!!"

Suddenly, there was a muffled explosion behind the two of them.

The two looked back.

It was a factory.

But at this time, a cloud of sand and dust was already rising in an area a few kilometers away from them.

"Ah... the factory's self-destruction system was triggered again." Xu Ying said with a smile on her lips.

"Well, it seems that the 'rebels' among the alien invaders have already begun to take action."

"boom!!!"

There was another explosion.

"They are stealing the concentrated scarlet crystals from those factories."

"boom!!"

There was another explosion.

Large amounts of sand and dust were kicked up.

"It's just that although the giant ship has been destroyed, these 'rebels' still can't solve the trap left by the leader." Xu Ying said with a smile.

Xu Xin was not so optimistic, and worried slightly: "Will they be like you, just take it away with teleportation?"

"It's impossible." Xu Ying said, "That is the scope of influence of World Tree. People who are not allowed can't teleport, except..."

Xu Ying pointed at herself.

"No, there is another one, isn't there?" Xu Xin suddenly said.

"boom!!!"

"boom!!"

"boom!!!"

There were three blasts in succession, no more than ten seconds apart.

"You mean..."

Xu Ying looked towards the direction of the explosion and said with some surprise: "That monster?"

The monster, like Xu Ying, also has the ability to teleport that is not restricted by the World Tree.

"That's it. Otherwise..."

"boom!!"

"boom!!!"

"boom!!"

The explosions continued.

"Otherwise, these rebels are too stubborn. Would they continue like this if they knew it would explode?"

Xu Xin's voice was hard to hear amid the continuous explosions.

"Yeah...that's true."

Xu Ying held her chin and looked over there: "If it is it...it feels acceptable. By the way, brother, do you really believe that the...race it created can live in peace with humans?"

Their action this time was based on trusting that guy.

It's really ungrateful to say you don't trust that guy now.

However, what the race it creates will look like in the future is indeed uncontrollable.

"I don't know." Xu Xin shook his head, "But..."

"Well, I know that without its information and help in this battle, we wouldn't be able to do this now." Xu Ying said, "And without the technology it gave us, we wouldn't be able to come from another time and space and change this." The fate of humanity in time and space.”

Indeed.

None of this would have happened without that half-human, half-alien invader guy.

"But what does it want with the scarlet crystal?" Xu Ying asked a little warily.

"Their 'race' can also eat scarlet crystal." Xu Xin said, "At least, if it takes it, it will be much better than leaving it here."

"Yes, then let him be."

The two were silent for a long time amid the continuous explosions.

"Brother, I can't sit still." Xu Ying turned to look at Xu Xin, "Otherwise, please give me back the bracelet containing another space-time weapon."

"...What are you going to do?"

"If the scarlet crystal is not completely destroyed, then I...will use weapons from another time and space to continue to deal with the aftermath."

"...Without you, we can't go back."

"Wait...Brother! I remembered!" Xu Ying stared at him closely, "You can obviously set the coordinates to teleport! You are already here. If you set the coordinates here, you can teleport back and forth. !"

Xu Xin rolled her eyes at her: "This is within the influence of World Tree, what's the use of me laying out coordinates?"

How could he not have thought of the coordinates?

He actually tried several times on the way here, but was unable to arrange the coordinates for teleportation.

There is desert everywhere here, and the desert is full of quicksand that deforms greatly when strong winds blow, making it impossible to lay out coordinates.

The relatively solid land is within the scope of the World Tree. Due to the restrictions of the World Tree, it cannot be transmitted even if it is laid out.

And it's also very dangerous. This is the home of alien invaders. Everything is under their control. Needless to say, it may even be exploited by them in reverse.

That would be ridiculous.

Xu Xin's reasons left Xu Ying speechless.

"Hey, by the way, that World Tree from before! That old Yang who helped us come here!"

Xu Ying's eyes lit up and she said excitedly: "We can ask him for help! That side is also very close to here. You can get there by riding the Silver King!"

"Hmm... If Lao Yang can agree, it might be feasible." Xu Xin touched his chin and said, "But, can they really fully control that World Tree?"

It would indeed be more appropriate if a coordinate could be set here.

"Whatever, let's go and ask first! Then we'll leave now!"

Xu Ying grabbed Xu Xin's wrist.

"Wait a minute, there's something you need to understand first."

"Hmm? What's going on?"

"The coordinates need to be present at both locations to transmit to each other. But according to Ji Chaoyang's prediction, our World Tree has most likely fallen at this point in time. The coordinates are likely to have been destroyed long ago."

If the coordinates over there are destroyed, it will cause trouble every day.

"...You should at least give it a try!"

"And even if it's been destroyed over there, one should be deployed here!"

"When I take you back, you can set up new coordinates to connect them. That way, even if my ability is no longer usable, we can go back and forth!"

"In this case... I don't have to wait here all the time! We can go back first!"

The more Xu Ying talks, the brighter her eyes become!

"...Well, let's go then."

Xu Xin looked back at World Tree.

The World Tree has stopped shaking and falling leaves, and has calmed down.

Only the surrounding factories were still blasting away.

Let’s let the situation here settle down a little first.

…

"Find a flat place for you to set up a teleportation device?" Lao Yang had a headache. "You are really going to cause trouble for me..."

"Hey, you should already know what we are doing over there!" Xu Ying negotiated, "Shouldn't you believe us unconditionally now?"

"...To be honest, I really didn't expect you to blow up the biggest ship." Lao Yang sighed, "Because of this, I am here waiting for you to come back. I think it's time for you to come back. .”

Xu Xin and Xu Ying looked at each other.

"Actually, the other three giant ships of the alien invaders were also destroyed." Xu Ying said with a smile.

"What?!" Lao Yang's eyes narrowed, "Are you serious?!"

"I personally learned this from the leader of the alien invaders. There is no lie." Xu Xin said calmly.

"In person...? You..."

"Moreover, our goal has been accomplished. The concentrated crystal of the alien invaders has been destroyed by us." Xu Xin said.

Although it's not completely confirmed. He said in his heart.

Lao Yang looked a little uncertain.

Doubt, excitement, doubt...

"...Okay, I can provide you with a location."

In the end, Lao Yang compromised.

He smiled bitterly and said: "Anyway, I have lived enough. I just hope that you... can be worthy of what you say, and don't use my loyalty to mankind as a bargaining chip to deceive me."

"Everything we say is true."

Lao Yang looked at them deeply.

"Okay, I understand. Come with me."
