Chapter 217: Enemies Hiding Around the Tree House



"Um...I'm sorry..." Li Wenxi lowered her head and looked at her toes and apologized.

"Why are you saying sorry to me..." Xu Xin was a little speechless. "Okay, you stay in the tree house first. I'll go to the south to take a look. If it's not a three-story tree house, I'll help you solve it directly. If it is, I also have a solution. Don't worry."

If it was a three-story tree house, Xu Xin had already thought of the most reasonable solution in his mind.

Lou Feier.

She is the most suitable person to do this.

As someone who is still from District 187 on the surface, with her acting skills, appearance, and physical strength enhanced by the mutation pills, it would be too easy for her to deal with a survivor from District 187 who regards her as a companion. She doesn't need to put in any effort or risk her life to solve the problem.

"I... okay..." Li Wenxi pouted and didn't insist. She didn't even have the nerve to ask to go with him. She felt that with her carelessness, going would only make things worse. "How long will you be gone?"

"It won't take long. If it's a three-story tree house, I'll take a quick look and come back."

"oh oh."

Li Wenxi escorted Xu Xin, Ke Ke, and Yin Wang to the treehouse. Xu Xin jumped onto the wolf and rushed towards the greenery to the south.

"Go quickly and come back soon!" Li Wenxi shouted from behind. Xu Xin waved his hand behind him and went into the jungle.

"Keke, are there any enemies around?" Xu Xin asked while observing the green area gradually approaching in front.

"Hmm." Coco shook her head.

Silver King quickly shuttled through the bare jungle, and soon, Xu Xin had seen the whole picture of the tree house.

"Sure enough, it's a three-story tree house..." Xu Xin narrowed his eyes.

He stopped a few hundred meters away from the tree house and observed it.

"Ying!" Coco suddenly pointed at the tree house with her little paws.

"Is there anyone in the tree house?"

"Hmm!" Coco nodded her little head.

The owner of this tree house didn't go out today.

Although a large area around the three-story tree house had been cleared and some plants were planted, there was no parasitic plant growing on it, which made Xu Xin feel a little relieved. It seemed that this survivor had not killed anyone in Area 188.

But that didn't mean he wasn't strong. The densely packed heavy crossbows surrounding the treehouse's canopy alone were enough to make one feel a bit intimidated. There were no parasitic treehouses around him, possibly because the survivors in Area 188 near him had long since died.

Although over 3,000 people from District 188 survived, nearly 7,000 also died. It was quite possible that only Li Wenxi was still alive.

Xu Xin asked Yin Wang to stay a few hundred meters away from the tree house and not get close, while he walked slowly forward with Coco.

The Silver King is a mutant beast. While it's considered a friendly unit to Xu Xin, it might not be to others, especially those from different regions. If the Treehouse Heavy Crossbow has auto-fire enabled, it's likely to detect the Silver King and shoot at it, so it's best to keep it at a distance.

Moreover, the forest was now desolate and without any treetops to block the view, and the Silver King, with his large size and blood-stained body, would be too easy to spot. On the other hand, his scales, when dry, looked like stones on the side of the road, perfect for concealment.

Xu Xin tried to choose a place with fewer dry fallen leaves to step on, otherwise the sound of the fallen leaves being crushed would be too loud.

Just when he was about to get out of the jungle, Coco on his shoulder suddenly pushed Xu Xin's face with his little paws and called out softly, "Ying." Then he jumped off his shoulder and hid behind a tree.

This is, let me hide?

Xu Xin immediately hid behind a thicker poplar tree.

At this time, a man suddenly popped his head out from the window. He was a man with short hair. He was holding a bow and arrow in his hand, aiming it at Xu Xin's position.

"Who! Come out!"

Tsk, he was so careful, but he was still discovered.

Although he didn't know how the other party discovered him, the survivor who owned a three-story tree house should not be underestimated.

We can't be reckless. This is a survivor who is protected in a tree house, and we don't know his strength yet. The other party has the home advantage.

"Don't shoot! We're on the same side! Area 187!" Xu Xin signaled Coco to stay behind the tree with his eyes, then emerged from behind the tree with his hands raised.

With his current equipment, the other party couldn't hurt him even if they shot arrows, so he dared to do this.

"Area 187?" The bow in the other party's hand slowed down slightly.

"Where are you from? What's your name?" the other party asked.

"I came from the north. My tree house is in the northwest. I passed by the tree house in the north that is similar to yours. My name is... Gu Honghao." Xu Xin shouted with his hands raised.

He wanted to try and see if he could trick this person out of the tree house.

As long as this person dares to walk out of the tree house and come to him, he is fully confident that he can subdue him with his own strength!
