Chapter 217: Enemies Hiding Around the Tree House



"Why don't you wait for me in the tree house for a while. I'll come back to see you after I'm done." Xu Xin said to Li Wenxi who was about to pull him away.

"...Are you annoyed that I'm holding you back?" Li Wenxi pursed her lips and made a gesture of pulling the trigger. "I can help you shoot from a distance. Boom!"

"Of course not, it's just... if it's a three-story tree house, I plan to test it out first. It's not convenient for two people to move."

The owner of the three-story tree house likely possessed some special abilities or survival methods, just like them, and this was something that should never be underestimated. Just like Lou Fei'er, if Xu Xin hadn't had his hearing amplified that day and heard what she said, Xu Xin would have been in her hands.

As a cautious person, he would never rush directly to the territory or tree house of such a person to attack. Who knows what methods he would use? The top ten in the area should not be underestimated.

If he met him in the wild, he wouldn't be afraid. In terms of individual combat capability, he was not inferior to anyone except Wen Guixin. But attacking the tree house was not that simple.

Take his tree house for example. Even if he is not near the tree house now, his tree house is very safe. There is tree house armor, an automatic heavy crossbow, and Ah Fu and Ai Fei guarding it. Most importantly, he has a mutant plant heart.

Although all survivors were considered neutral, anyone who dared to attack the treehouse would be immediately classified as an enemy. In this situation, he wouldn't even have time to breach the treehouse's armor before the mutant plant heart would strike. Add to that the interference from Ah Fu's beloved concubine and the automatic fire from the blue-level heavy crossbow...

Even Xu Xin didn't know how he could survive in this situation.

Since his own tree house is so strong, Xu Xin has no reason to think that the tree houses of the strong people in other areas are weak.

It's always better to be cautious.

etc……

If the owner of this tree house is one of the top ten in District 187, then he should have been reminded by their boss Zhang Daoguang to clear out the survivors in the surrounding area.

He may have already launched attacks on the surroundings like Lou Feier!

Among the dozen or so people who died in District 188 yesterday, perhaps his achievements were among them!

"Have you met anyone these two days? Or have you encountered any strange things?" Xu Xin suddenly asked Li Wenxi seriously.

"Huh?" Li Wenxi was startled by Xu Xin's sudden serious tone, and her voice became softer. "No...no, what's wrong?"

"Think about it again, did anything strange happen yesterday?"

"Strange...? Hmm..." Li Wenxi frowned in thought, "I was basically out mining all day yesterday and didn't come back until the evening. It seems nothing happened... Oh, right!"

Li Wenxi seemed to have thought of something. He clapped his hands and pointed at Ah Niu. "When I came back yesterday, Ah Niu was a little restless. He was fine before we came back, but as soon as he got near the tree house, he suddenly became agitated!"

"Restless? Why are you restless?"

"It just kept panting towards the jungle, as if it was about to rush out. I thought it was going to escape, so I quickly brought it back to the third floor of the tree house, and then it calmed down. Is this weird?"

Panting towards the jungle, wanting to rush through?

Xu Xin narrowed his eyes and asked Aniu, "Aniu, when you came back last night, did you notice anything?"

When Ah Niu heard Xu Xin's question, he immediately stood up from his crouching position and mooed twice, as if in response.

"Ying!" Coco once again acted as a translator and began to gesture with her little paws.

"Oh! Keke is so cute!" Li Wenxi wanted to go up and hug Keke, but was pulled back by Xu Xin.

Xu Xin watched Keke's gestures, then glanced at Li Wenxi, who was looking at him with some confusion, and asked, "What did you wear when you went out yesterday? A steel armor suit?"

"Yes," Li Wenxi nodded. "The steel armor is my strongest suit of armor, so of course I have to wear it. It also increases my strength, making mining easier."

"Was Ah Niu always moving in the same direction yesterday?"

"...Yes, um...what do you want to say?" Li Wenxi seemed to have noticed something and his expression changed.

"...When you came back, there was a man hiding in the jungle next to the tree house, and Aniu noticed him."

"Ah?" Li Wenxi's expression instantly turned into one of fear and trepidation. She subconsciously grabbed Xu Xin's arm. "Was there anyone around at that time?"

"Yes, he was probably waiting for you to come back so he could kill you," Xu Xin speculated. "However, thankfully, you were riding a giant mutant bull, wearing a suit of steel armor the likes of which he had never seen before, protecting your entire body. He probably decided he couldn't hurt you with a covert attack, and he couldn't defeat you in a head-on confrontation, so he didn't attack you."

Li Wenxi was a little dumbfounded. She turned to look at Ah Niu, "Ah Niu, did you really notice someone yesterday?"

The huge blood-marked bull nodded slightly.

"This..." Li Wenxi grabbed Xu Xin's arm with some fear.

"You are too careless. With Ah Niu's reaction, you should have thought that there were enemies around." Xu Xin was a little helpless. The rich girl had a carefree personality. Fortunately, she was fully armed with a set of steel armor and was not afraid of being attacked. Otherwise, she would not know how she died.

However, the most intimidating one is Ah Niu, whose body is much larger than the Silver King, and is covered with blood veins all over his body. The very strong muscles on the cow's body look very powerful. Most people would not provoke a strong man riding on such a cow.
