On the map, within the range of the red fog, countless red dots are unevenly distributed.

Under the current circumstances, with no wild animals in the forest, Xu Xin had no source of points. Therefore, in his eyes, these swarms of mutant vines were simply points, pieces of blue-level soil.

In the red mist, these vines swayed gently with the flow of the mist, and the blood veins and blood thorns all emitted a unique red light. At a glance, a red light flickered and swayed in the mist.

This red mist is truly magical. Not only can it render the tree house protection zone ineffective, it can even enhance the strength of mutant creatures and make the blood patterns on the mutant creatures glow blood-red.

If Silver King and Mimi stayed in the red mist for a long time, would they be able to evolve faster? Of course, Xu Xin would not try it. What if the red mist stimulated abilities at a price? That would be a waste of time.

Leaning against the tree, Xu Xin took a short rest and began to think about how to kill these vines that came out of the ground.

After observing the vines carefully for a while, he found that there were two obvious factions among the vines.

These vines can be broadly divided into two categories.

One type is a slender, blood-veined vine covered in circles of blood, with a sharp, spear-like tip. This type of vine attacks by thrusting, piercing the target directly with its sharp tip, or by tangling several or dozens of vines together to form a sharp drill, spinning to attack.

The other type is the Bloodthorn Vine, a thick, resilient vine covered in blood-red barbs. These vines lack sharp tips and don't pierce with a stabbing attack. Instead, they strike like a whip, lashing out with immense force. Their attack range is vast, and in addition to their powerful striking, the barbs can also cause severe scratches.

After losing their targets, these vines seemed unable to resist the desire to attack, and occasionally a few vines would attack another type of vine.

Under Xu Xin's gaze, a blood-veined vine suddenly launched an attack, piercing towards the group of blood-thorn vines. After piercing several blood-thorn vines in succession, it was attacked by the blood-thorn vines. Several blood-thorn vines hit the slender branches of the blood-veined vines and directly split the attacking blood-veined vine into several sections.

The vine that was originally stretched straight due to the thrust suddenly became limp, fell to the ground, twisted slightly a few times, and the blood veins on its body that were originally glowing dimmed, and then it became motionless.

Xu Xin couldn't help but be shocked. Before he could make a move, they started killing each other.

"嘤!" Coco was sitting in Xu Xin's arms, staring at every move of the vines with him. Seeing this situation, it screamed and wanted to get closer to take a look. As soon as it jumped out of Xu Xin's arms, he picked it up again.

"You little guy, do you want to die? Don't run around!" Xu Xin tapped Keke's head.

"Hmm..."

Coco covered her head and sat back in Xu Xin's arms, but she kept staring at the vines. As the vines attacked, she kept making "嘤嘤" screams.

It’s no wonder that Coco kept screaming. Even Xu Xin, watching the attacks between the two vines, had the illusion of watching a competition.

This group of vines gives people the feeling that the two sides are fighting back and forth, but they seem to be afraid of something. Although they hate each other and want to kill each other every time they attack, they dare not engage in large-scale conflict.

It's as if I'm constrained by some rules.

Xu Xin looked toward the salt mine hill. Through the red mist, the two bright white spots in the hill's depressions stood out, like a giant gazing intently at everything.

Xu Xin took out a crossbow, loaded an arrow, and walked to a place nearly ten meters away from the edge of the red fog.

He didn't dare get too close to the red fog, fearing the vines would entwine themselves out of it, wrap around his feet, and drag him in. If he were dragged in, he'd be instantly ripped apart. The giant carnivorous plant he'd encountered earlier had used its vines to entwine and attack. His ankle had been entangled, and he'd been lifted up, nearly being thrown into its maw.

If these vines get out of the red fog and return quickly, they will not necessarily die. After all, the monsters that had previously moved around in the protected area for a while before dying.

Xu Xin aimed at the target, aimed at the root of a blood-veined vine, and pulled the trigger.

The roots are rooted in the soil and at most move in a small range in the cracks of the ground, which is basically equivalent to a fixed target.

"Swoosh--crack!" The crossbow arrow accurately hit the root of the blood-veined vine, directly piercing through the slender vine.

The vines swaying in the red mist froze in the air the moment they were hit. Then, the limp vines fell directly to the ground, twisting twice like a snake. The red light emitted by the blood veins dimmed, and finally they stopped moving.

[Kill the blood-veined vines and gain 20 points.]

"Ying!" Coco waved its little paws, as if to say, well done!

"It's comfortable, it works!" Xu Xin's face was also full of joy.

He was actually a little worried that the crossbow wouldn't work.

Although the crossbow itself is the best crossbow below the purple level, he has been using green-level crossbow arrows, so the power of the crossbow is not as strong as imagined, and it will not cause much damage to the thick blood thorn vines. In the previous mine, the blood thorn vine directly pulled out the crossbow arrows stuck in it and threw it at him.

So he chose the relatively thinner blood-veined vines as his target, and the effect was indeed significant.
