The heavy rain continued, but the frequency of thunder was significantly lower after the event began.
Silver King and Mimi also came to the window. The huge tornado outside made them very curious. They kept lying on the window and looking out, but they didn't seem to be afraid.
Perhaps, the mutant beasts have the ability to foresee danger, and they do not feel the crisis from this huge tornado, so they are not afraid.
"Oh! Oh, oh, oh!" Coco stood on the windowsill, pointing at the tornado outside and explaining to the two beasts.
Xu Xinke didn't understand what they were saying, so he shook his head and looked down at the tree house.
“…The water level is rising too fast.”
The water level under the tree house continued to rise, completely submerging the newly grown small tree below the water surface. The entire area outside the tree house seemed to have turned into a vast ocean, and the water level was estimated to be close to four meters.
"Oh my god, the tornado outside is so scary!"
"Don't worry, didn't you see what Boss Ji Chaoyang said just now? He said that this tornado won't attack us, and it might even bring us treasures."
"I don't dare ask for any more treasures. I'm lucky enough to be alive..."
"It's no longer a jungle outside, it's completely an ocean!"
Xu Xin flipped up and found that Ji Chaoyang had already sent the ideas they had just discussed in the group to the other survivors, asking them not to worry too much about the tornado and to try to move their things to higher floors first.
"But the water outside is rising too fast!"
"It's over, it's over, it's almost reaching the window, the water is about to get into the tree house!"
"What should I do? What should I do? Even the tree house is about to be flooded. There is water all over the outside. There is not even a place to stand. I can't swim..."
Those who are complaining are probably those who did not get the tree house level +1 reward in the last dungeon activity, and they only have a low-level tree house.
If this level of the tree house is flooded, they will be truly homeless.
The water outside is nearly four meters high, while the lowest point of the low tree houses is only three meters, and the bottom edge of the windows is only about four meters from the ground. It seems that if the water level outside continues to rise, these low tree houses will definitely be flooded and eventually submerged.
These people couldn't even add windows to the treehouse. The glass windows and other treehouse facilities he created were abilities granted to him by the [Treehouse Renovation Contract] in the silver treasure chest. Aside from the Explorers, no one else had this ability yet.
If wooden windows were useful, Xu Xin had so much wood in his hands that he could make a bunch of them on the spot to help everyone and make some money at the same time. However, wooden windows have gaps and it is obviously impossible to block the flood outside. Closed glass windows might be able to do that.
But he was powerless to make the glass windows because he didn't have enough materials.
"Luckily I have a second floor. If the first floor gets flooded, I can go to the second floor to take shelter."
"Brothers and sisters who have a second floor, quickly move all your things there, the first floor is about to flood!"
"We've already finished moving. I'll do whatever the boss says. Now I can only pray that the water level doesn't reach the second floor."
"After the flood, I'm afraid everyone will lose contact..."
Xu Xin was not panicked at all. The bottom floor of his house was ten meters high, and the top floor was even more than twenty meters high. If even he was flooded, no one would be alive.
"Oh shit, the water's coming in! It's pouring in! It's really going to flood!"
"It's no use piling up cabinets, I can't seal the window at all!"
The heavy rain outside was still pouring down like a waterfall, and the water level was rising rapidly.
"Everyone, we can only go to the roof. Grab the roots. The tree house can take us to the roof. We can only take shelter there first!"
"But the rain outside is too heavy. I've been out in the rain all day and all night. I caught a cold, had a fever, and developed hypothermia..."
"What else can I do? I'm going out first. Take care, everyone!"
"I'm going too!"
"Fuck, when I was seven or eight, I loved running in the rain. Getting wet was nothing!"
"It's better than drowning!"
As time passed, the water level outside had reached a depth of five or six meters, and the first floor of the low tree house should have been completely submerged.
Fortunately, after reaching this height, the water level did not rise further.
Although the heavy rain was still continuing, Xu Xin could clearly feel that the rain outside was much lighter, at least it was no longer like a waterfall, making it impossible for people to even stand firmly in the rain.
"Is this, the surrounding environment stabilized?" Xu Xin looked at the tornado outside. The tornado was still as terrifying as before, and nothing had changed.
Looking around, the original jungle was like a vast ocean, and his tree house was the only isolated island in the ocean.
Hmm? Something's wrong...
Xu Xin frowned and thought for a while, then suddenly thought of something and his eyelids twitched.
Gu Xiao
Where are those hills to the northwest?
Those hills are at least tens of meters high, it’s impossible for them to be submerged!
Gone? He...ran away?
Xu Xin took a deep breath and didn't dare to think about it anymore.
There was no point in thinking about it. If those hills were really a group of monsters in disguise as he had imagined last time, then there was nothing he could do.
Fortunately, Tornado is in the southwest. If he really wants to go to Tornado to search for treasure, he doesn't need to get close to the original hilly resource area.
The regional channel has become very quiet now, the quietest it has been since it was opened. Not a single person has spoken for half a day.
