The owner of this tree house is not from their area?

That's not right. This is the closest treehouse to his. How could it not be in the same area as his? Is he on the border of two areas?

That's not right either.

During the previous activities in the rainy season, he had seen the strong light emitting from the lightning rod on the roof of Li Wenxi's tree house. Her tree house was also in this direction, and even farther away.

How could this tree house between him and Li Wenxi not be in their area?

"Hmm!"

Just when Xu Xin was puzzled, Coco on his shoulder suddenly jumped up and quickly climbed into the tree canopy along the broken trunk.

Ah Fu also flew up and went in with Coco.

"Huh?" Xu Xin discovered that when he looked inside the tree canopy that Coco had pulled apart, he seemed to see that the inside was very dilapidated.

Eaten by ants?

The trunk of the low tree house was only three meters high, and there were various holes on the trunk that could be stepped on, so Xu Xin climbed up in two or three steps.

After peeling away the tree canopy, Xu Xin was surprised to find that the walls and floor of the house in the canopy had been eaten away and were riddled with holes. Only a broken frame was left supporting the yellowed tree canopy outside.

This is a tree house that has been damaged in every sense of the word.

Xu Xin crawled into the tree house through the big hole in the broken floor.

There are also some crafting tables, beds and other things scattered around in the tree house. Because the ants are only interested in the tree house, these things have been preserved.

But he did not see the body of the dead tree house owner. Instead, he found several green-level backpacks left behind by the tree house owner. They contained some basic supplies that were of little use to him.

Ah Fu flew a few circles in the space in the center of the tree house and landed on the ground. Coco also ran two circles and finally sat in the middle of the tree house, scratching the ground twice with his little claws.

Xu Xin threw away his backpack, dodged the holes on the ground that looked like traps, and walked over to Coco and squatted down.

"What's wrong?" He looked at the place where Coco was scratching, which was the tree house floor that was not damaged much.

"Oh! Oh!" Coco waved her little paws and explained to Xu Xin.

"You mean, there are good things underneath!" Xu Xin's eyes lit up.

"Hmm!" Coco nodded her little head vigorously.

This location is not ordinary. It is the center of the tree house, and the trunk of the tree house is below it.

Could it be that there is something good in the trunk of the tree house?

By the way, this tree house is only green-rated, so it should be able to be cut down, right?

No, if we cut down the trees, what if the surrounding protected areas suddenly disappear? That would be courting death.

Xu Xin took out an iron axe and decided to chop open the floor to see what was underneath.

"Keke, stay away!" Xu Xin swung the axe.

"Ah!" Coco quickly ran to the side and almost fell through the hole in the floor. She climbed up in a panic.

"Crack!" With just one axe strike, the floor cracked. Another axe strike sent wood chips flying and the floor was chopped into several pieces.

Xu Xin picked up the broken floorboards and threw them aside, revealing his true appearance from under the floorboards.

He was surprised to find that the tree trunk under the floor was hollow!

The trunk of the low treehouse was about a meter thick, and in the middle, there was a hole over half a meter in diameter, extending straight into the ground. Xu Xin looked inside and saw a bead emitting a brilliant white light at the very bottom, half buried in the soil.

The luminous white light was real light, not the graded light that his discerning ability could detect. But strangely, just like the tree house seeds, Xu Xin could not tell the grade of this bead.

The tree hole has a diameter of half a meter, which is enough for him to jump in. After all, the shoulder width of a human is only about 30 to 40 centimeters.

But Coco had already jumped in before him, landed at the bottom of the tree hole, and curiously patted the bead buried in the soil.

"Keke, bring up the bead." Xu Xin called from above.

"Ying!" Coco responded, and used her little paws to pick up a white egg-sized bead from the soil, held it in her mouth, and then jumped up from the left and right sides of the tree hole.

"Be good!" Xu Xin touched Coco's little head with his hand and took the bead from its mouth.

[The core of the low tree house: This core provides the tree house with energy for growth. Removing it will cause the tree house to die instantly. Depleting the energy in the low tree house's core can upgrade a blue-level basic material to purple-level.]

Xu Xin: “!!!”

This core can upgrade the blue level to purple level!

The so-called basic materials and supplies are materials such as wood, stone, and ore obtained through mining, rather than materials and tools obtained through hunting or manufacturing.

But this is also very good. With basic supplies, can't he make purple-level tools?

etc……

After the core was taken out, the tree house died instantly...

Holy shit, he's not in the reserve anymore, is he?!

Xu Xin quickly touched the trunk of the tree house with his hand and got a hint.

[Dead, low tree house: A tree house, its core removed, is completely dead. Even though its roots are dead, they still hold onto the land. Although they are no longer able to stop the attacks of underground creatures, they dare not emerge in areas densely covered with roots, so they still provide a certain degree of protection.]

"This..." Xu Xin's expression was a little strange.

What this introduction means is that the dead tree house still exists within the protected area, but it is just a bluffing protected area, simply because the underground creatures dare not come out!
