Starting Off Survival With A Small Treehouse

The blood-thorn vines in front of them are extremely thick, and they are much thicker than the blood-thorn vines they have seen before in the defense battle!

The previous blood thorn vines had a diameter of about five or six centimeters. In fact, compared to the blood thorn vines with a diameter of two or three centimeters, they were already very thick.

But the vine covered with blood thorns in front of me is at least ten centimeters in diameter! If it didn't bend, Xu Xin would even think it was the trunk of a small tree!

The silver king bared his fangs at the vine, and his low roar became louder. Hongtong stared at the vine, and it seemed that he might violently attack at any time.

"Xu Xin, what happened to the Silver King!" Li Wenxi immediately shouted to Xu Xin anxiously.

"Yin Wang, don't be impulsive!" Xu Xin turned around and saw the appearance of Yin Wang, feeling that it was a bit like the crazy appearance of an intermediate-level mutant beast after being injured.

"嘤嘤!" Coco also jumped on its head and gave it a paw, as if to warn it not to be impulsive.

Only then did the Silver King slowly put away his fangs.

"Ow?" It didn't seem to understand why it was suddenly excited.

Seeing that Yin Wang Dan had settled down, Xu Xin breathed a sigh of relief.

"This is..." Li Wenxi asked worriedly.

"The mood of the intermediate mutant beast is not stable. This vine seems to stimulate its desire to fight, right?" Ji Chaoyang also came over and asked.

"...It should be right." Xu Xin looked back at the vine again.

"How can it be so rough?" Xu Xin muttered to himself, "After the tree house was upgraded, the strength of the underground creatures also increased? Moreover, it can actually make the silver king become impulsive, why is this?"

Ji Chaoyang stepped forward and observed the blood-thorn vine with a solemn expression, "When I went out yesterday, I never encountered such a thick vine."

Li Wenxi also stepped forward cautiously, hid behind Xu Xin, looked at the vine, and exclaimed, "This is much thicker than the previous blood thorn vine. Fortunately, it still cannot attack the protected area."

Although the vine was thick and looked scary, it still did not attack Xu Xin who was standing in the protected area, but turned around a few times in the same place. Seeing that it could not attack the target it wanted to attack, it began to swing slightly in place. and retracted below the ground.

Now that it's all out, naturally it can't let it go back.

Xu Xin immediately waved his halberd and swept towards the roots of the blood-thorn vine.

The halberd is very long, three meters long, and this blood-thorn vine is at the very edge of the protected area. So he can attack the vines, but the vines can't attack him.

"Card."

Xu Xin used a lot of strength, combined with his increased strength, the halberd easily cut off the root of this **** vine like cutting tofu.

A warm current that was much stronger than that of the poplar trees he had cut down before rushed down the handle of the halberd he was holding, and his slightly tired body from riding the wolf for a long time was instantly restored to its peak.

The vines that were still swaying slightly stiffened, and the originally bright red blood thorns became dark, and then fell in their direction.

The three of them are people who have experienced battles, and they are not panic at all, they all dodged slightly, dodging the fallen vines.

With a "bang", the thick and heavy vines smashed to the ground, raising up dead leaves that fell to the ground.

"Hey!" Coco ran to the edge of the vine, ran around looking at the vine that was much thicker than before, and scratched hard with his small paw.

Coco's claws are actually very sharp, and it's not a problem to make a deep scar on the human skin, but the skin of the vine has not been scratched, only a white mark is left on it.

The defense of this vine is much higher than before. Fortunately, Xu Xin's weapon was more than a little bit stronger than before, so there was still no pressure to deal with.

[Kill the blood thorn vine, get points: 50 points. 】

The previous Bloodthorn Vine had only 15 points. This one actually has 50 points.

"You actually cut it off at once!" Li Wenxi was surprised.

"The mutant vine is actually easy to deal with. As long as it is attacked at the root before it retracts and destroys its root, it can basically be killed successfully." Xu Xin explained to Li Wenxi.

"So that's how it is." Li Wenxi looked at the vine on the ground that was still shaking and shaking slightly even though it was dead.

In the defense battle, she only killed the big ants that climbed into the tree house, and did not kill the mutant vines, so she did not know its weakness.

"How's it going? How many points is this with the vine?" Ji Chaoyang squatted down, observed the vine carefully, and asked without raising his head.

"50 points, fortunately, it has not reached the level of intermediate mutant creatures."

Intermediate mutant creatures are 100 points, and this vine is far from intermediate.

However, he still can't take it lightly, because the vines are not like the intermediate mutant beasts he encountered before. They are all alone. There are many of them. If he rides the Silver King for a lap, it will be no problem to bring dozens or hundreds of them. .

In the future, if the previous defense battle happens again, the vines will definitely appear in groups.

If they are mid-level mutant creatures, then the trouble is big.

"That's good, um, apart from getting bigger, the vines haven't changed much, and they really haven't been promoted to intermediate-level mutant creatures. Moreover, this should be a good way to earn points. There are blue-level fertilizers in the points mall, and there are still Many people have not seen fertile soil." Ji Chaoyang touched his chin, stood up, and thought.

Xu Xin took out a boning knife and a wooden barrel, and he wanted to collect the juice of this thick blood-thorn vine.

"I'll help you!" Li Wenxi helped him lift the vines. Although there are many thorns on the blood thorn vine, the distance is not small, and there is no problem in handling it carefully.

Xu Xin scratched the vine with a knife, and a milky white viscous liquid flowed out from the scratch, which made Xu Xin heave a sigh of relief.

He was afraid that the vines attacked by the purple-grade steel halberd had absorbed a lot of vitality, so that, like the trees, the materials could not be collected, which would be too uncomfortable.

Fortunately, although the halberd cannot be used to cut down trees, it does not affect the materials after killing monsters.

The amount of juice of this blood thorn vine is basically equivalent to four or five previous blood thorn vines.

"This juice is one of the raw materials that I use to make steel fire and all-purpose alchemy materials. You can help me collect it when you have time." Xu Xin threw the blood-thorn vine that had drained the juice and had become lighter on the ground. humane.

Ji Chaoyang said: "It happens that I still have a lot in the tree house. I can only make explosives in my hands. I have enough explosives. I will trade them for you when I return to the tree house."

"Ah? I didn't... and I feel like I can't beat it..." Li Wenxi lowered her head, a little embarrassed.

She basically doesn't know anything about combat. It's okay for her to kill ordinary beasts with her excellent physical fitness, or to avoid the attack of mutant creatures. She has absolutely no confidence in facing mutant creatures and killing them.

"You don't have to use melee combat, you can use an explosive crossbow to lose it and blow up its roots with one shot." Xu Xin made a move of pulling the trigger towards Li Wenxi.

"Explosion crossbow lost? Yes! But this vine is so thick, can it blow up?" Li Wenxi asked looking at the vine on the ground.

"Then try again."

Saying that, Xu Xin once again stepped out of the protected area and quickly retracted it.

The cracks on the ground widened again in an instant. This time, three sharp and thick blood-patterned vines drilled out and stabbed Xu Xin quickly!

"Hey!" Coco rushed behind Xu Xin's legs in fright, grinning and raising his claws at the three vines.

Under Xu Xin's gaze, these three vines actually broke through the protected area and attacked them!

He was startled, and quickly pulled Li Wenxi to the side to hide.

However, the vine did not go deep, just entered a section, the blood lines all over the body became even brighter in an instant, and then quickly retracted, stopping outside the boundary of the protected area, three sharp vines pointed straight Gougou faced Xu Xin and the three of them, still circling.

"Did you... see it just now?" Xu Xin frowned, "Did they just enter the reserve?"

This blood-patterned vine is five or six centimeters in thickness. The original slender blood-patterned vine is almost as thick as the blood-patterned vine in the defense battle. The vine is surrounded by dense red blood lines, and the tip of the vine is still extremely sharp, like a stick A polished rapier.

"Although there is only one point, it is indeed entering..." Ji Chaoyang's expression was also solemn, "This is not a good phenomenon."

"I saw it too!" Li Wenxi opened her eyes wide and looked at the vines outside that were no longer dared to enter, "The moment they came in, the blood lines on their bodies seemed to be... brighter? Glowing? Like... Just like the vines in the defense battle!"

...reinforced by what?

"You said just now that you haven't encountered such a thick vine yesterday?" Xu Xin asked after thinking of what Ji Chaoyang had just said.

"Yes, I went around my protected area yesterday and explored all directions. Only the four relatively positive directions, south, east, and northwest, are connected to the protected area, and the rest are dangerous areas. "Ji Chaoyang explained in a deep voice, "I also tried like you did. The vines drilled from the ground are the same as before. This is the first time I have seen such thick vines."

The vines this time...

"Two possibilities." Xu Xin stretched out his hand to compare. "The first possibility is that this place is rather special. There is something underground that can strengthen the vines, so the underground creatures are stronger."

"The second possibility," Ji Chaoyang said, "is that after the autumn in the jungle this morning, all the underground vines became stronger."

"Go to a few more places and try it out, you won't know." Li Wenxi had already taken out her steel crossbow and loaded an explosive crossbow.

Ji Chaoyang told the information to the other explorers on the spot, and asked them to pay attention to whether the underground creatures outside the reserve became stronger.

"I don't think there is anything special about my side~www.wuxiamtl.com~ It may be that these mutant vines like low temperature. As soon as autumn and winter come, stronger guys will emerge, and they can persist in the reserve for a period of time. Don't die, the ones we encountered during our jungle exploration activities, didn't they die after attacking us in the reserve? By the way, can I shoot them?"

Holding a crossbow, Li Wenxi was already eager to try and bomb these three blood-patterned vines.

Xu Xin thought of the huge piranha at the entrance of the treasure chest.

That piranha flower persisted in the reserve for a long time before it died. Now that I think about it, it seems to be stronger than the intermediate mutant creatures, and it can also control people's spirits and cause hallucinations.

If it weren't for the fact that the piranha flower became dry and brittle and died at the last minute, Xu Xin might have explained it there at the time.

From this point of view, perhaps it is just a stronger underground creature that can persist in a stronger time in the protected area.

Seeing that Li Wenxi's crossbow had been aimed at the root of the blood-patterned vine, Xu Xin immediately stopped her.

"Stay far away, the explosion range is very large." Xu Xin pulled the two away ten meters away.

At this time, the three blood-patterned vines had already lost their target and were about to retreat to the ground.

"Hurry up!"

"Oh good!" Li Wenxi immediately aimed at the root of the vine and pulled the trigger.

"Whoosh-"

The rate of fire of the blue-grade steel crossbow was very fast, and before the three vines that had lost their target could react, the explosive crossbow had already hit their roots.

"boom!"

The smoke from the explosion gradually dissipated, and the three of them looked at the original vine position. There were two blood-stained vines left on the ground. Only one vine completely retracted to the ground at the moment they saw it. the following.

It seems that it is not too strong, at least it can be solved with the weapons in their hands.
