"...You actually guessed it right away!" Li Wenxi was a little surprised. "Indeed, it feels like it should be... um... thirty or forty meters deep? I found it when I left, and there's metal ore in it! And I feel like the ore in your lake is something we've never seen before!"
Thirty or forty meters deep?
Aren’t those the green minerals he saw during his last dive?
Green metal ore...
It can’t really be a copper mine, right?
Xu Xin's heart skipped a beat.
If it really is a copper mine, once it is mined, it should be possible to make electrical appliances, bringing the tree house into the electrical age!
However, ever since Coco pulled him away last time and told him that there was danger in the water, he basically would not go near the lake except to get water.
He didn't know what was happening now, or if he was still in danger. Ever since he'd eaten the blue-level fish maw, which had enhanced his ability to withstand water pressure, he hadn't dived into the lake.
I’ll go and have a look again after I go back this time.
"Okay, you guys continue chatting, I have to leave too."
Xu Xin looked out the window and saw that the Silver King had already stood up. When it saw Xu Xin sticking his head out, it immediately let out a "woop" to indicate that it had recovered.
"Well, be careful on the road!"
Li Wenxi lifted Coco, who was still rolling on the sofa, onto his shoulders and placed Xu Xin under the tree house.
He didn't leave immediately, but came to the coordinates.
He wanted to experiment with teleporting tokens.
Coco's teleport hand card is now in his backpack.
"Keke, go activate the portal back home." Xu Xin put Keke on the ground from several meters away.
"Hmm?" Coco tilted its little head, not quite understanding what Xu Xin wanted to do, but it still jumped over in two steps, touched the metal pillar with "Xu Xin's Tree House" written on it with its little paw, and then jumped back.
Along with the change of the purple light and the strange sound, the portal was activated and the purple-black vortex reappeared.
Even without the card in hand, Coco activated the portal. Apparently, even without the card in hand, one could still control the coordinates, even without wearing it.
Just now, Coco was several meters away from him, but the teleportation card was still effective. The effective range was really large.
This is a lot more convenient.
After figuring this out, Xu Xin rode on the Silver King and headed towards Qi Xuefei's tree house.
He needs to first go to the tree house ruins in the west, then go north through Li Yajun's tree house ruins, enter Ma Hongyu's tree house ruins, and finally go east to enter Qi Xuefei's protected area.
Although there are remains of the protected area from dead tree houses along the way, they still serve as a deterrent, so there is no need to worry about any danger for the time being.
Soon, they entered the former Li Yajun Tree House Protection Area, and the blood patterns on the Silver King's body gradually brightened as they moved forward.
Passing by this special area again.
The Silver King's strength was restored once again. After running for a whole day, he became full of energy again.
This enhancement effect is really good, especially for a mutant beast like Mimi that has strong explosiveness and attack power but poor endurance. It is basically equivalent to a superpower.
When I have the ability in the future, I must find the source of this gain effect and obtain it!
“Bing!”
While Xu Xin was still thinking about this, Keke suddenly let out a warning cry.
"Silver King, stop!"
Hearing Coco's cry, Xu Xin subconsciously stopped Silver King.
The Silver King skidded sideways and braked suddenly to a stop in the bare jungle.
Under the cover of the starlight in the dark night, the blood-red patterns on its body are very conspicuous.
"What's going on?" Xu Xin looked around vigilantly. "Is there any danger around?"
"Hmm!" Coco nodded her little head and pointed forward with her little paws.
Xu Xin did not doubt Coco's feelings. After all, Coco had basically never made any mistakes.
He looked at the map and didn't find any red dots around.
There are no enemy units on the ground. Could it be... another mutated underground creature?
But why did it appear at this time? Isn't this a protected area?
Xu Xin suddenly thought of something and looked up at the sky.
...Tonight is a moonless night!
And here is a special area where the Silver King's blood veins can light up!
Moreover, the place where he is now is no longer within the real protected area, but a deterrent protected area.
This kind of protected area is like a scarecrow in a wheat field. It can only serve as a deterrent but has no actual protective effect!
With the blessing of these three, this area may be really dangerous now!
What should I do? Could it be that the area ahead is now a dangerous area?
...Maybe I should wait until tomorrow when the weather is clear before going to Qi Xuefei to connect. The special area on the moonless night is really dangerous.
Wait a moment.
These mutated creatures should all be considered minions of the so-called "Blood Mark Clan", right?
That……
Xu Xin immediately took out the energy core fragment he obtained from the cave from his backpack.
The moment it was taken out, the surroundings were illuminated by a soft, white light. At the same time, the temperature, which was originally only six or seven degrees, immediately rose to more than twenty degrees, causing Coco in his arms to cry out in comfort.
Can this core prevent those mutated creatures from coming out from underground?
"Coco, can we continue moving forward now?" Xu Xin asked, holding the energy core fragment and touching Coco's little head.
"...Hmm?" Keke looked ahead puzzledly for a while, then nodded, "Hmm!"
"Ao!" The Silver King also turned his head and shouted, which also meant that there should be no danger ahead.
"Okay, let's keep going. If there's any danger, Coco, remember to remind us, and Silver King, don't forget to stop either."
“Bing!”
“Ouch!”
The Silver King immediately launched himself from the spot and continued to move forward.
The energy core fragments could illuminate a wide area, at least several dozen meters within a range that was illuminated by a brilliant white light, indistinguishable from daylight. Even farther away, the brilliant white light could still be seen, though slightly dimmed.
The actual range of impact is probably... about a hundred meters?
As Xu Xin moved forward, he observed the unusual movements around him and on the map.
"...Huh?" Xu Xin's pupils shrank and his brows tightened.
Something unexpected appeared on the map.
I saw a red dot appear around the place where they had just walked.
The Silver King was very fast, especially with the amplification of the blood patterns on his body. He moved swiftly through the jungle without any pause.
On the map, red dots quietly appeared behind them. After a not very bright red dot lit up, it immediately dimmed.
The red dot behind him was like a red wave, rising and falling, which was frightening to watch.
This is an underground creature!
