Forget it, let's not think about it for now. At least this strange thing hasn't happened to the survivors in Area 188 yet.
"You know, Xu Xin, Zhang Daoguang has already noticed that Ma Hongwei's name has been blacked out in the 187th zone's channel. He's furious now and even sent private messages to the top ten of us, asking us to find the murderer. It's so funny! Let the murderer find the murderer, haha!"
"...You guys have tricked me..." Ma Hongwei's voice sounded somewhat helpless and aggrieved.
"...Just don't let anything slip." Xu Xin also curled up the corner of his mouth into a smile. He was a little interested in this Zhang Daoguang.
"Don't worry, I won't be exposed!"
"Ma Hongwei, make a few more control panels." Xu Xin said to Ma Hongwei, "And the green-level crossbows, make fifty of them first, the materials are enough." As he said that, Xu Xin traded him a bunch of materials, green-level fine wood and animal tendons.
"That's enough." Ma Hongwei nodded and said, "I'll trade it to you once I'm done."
After hanging up the call, Xu Xin thought for a moment and placed a control panel next to the tree house screen.
The control panel itself can see in all directions. If it is placed next to the window, it will be vulnerable to attack when operating. It is better to place it in a position closer to the inside.
He slid open the panel, and the scenery around his tree house, as if taken from an aerial perspective, appeared on the panel. The heavy crossbows he had placed in the tree house could now be operated through the panel.
However, the heavy crossbow on the west wall had disappeared, because his heavy crossbow was placed on the first floor, and the west side was covered by the crown of the banyan tree he had newly planted, which opened up new space, and the original heavy crossbow disappeared directly.
Xu Xin tried to control the heavy crossbow to attack a tree a hundred meters away.
Immediately, the sound of a heavy crossbow being fired could be heard from outside the tree house. Then, with a loud "click", the tree he had clicked on the control panel had been accurately hit by the heavy crossbow and broken directly.
"Hmm!?" Coco, who was sitting on the sofa, was awakened by the sudden sound outside the tree house and jumped up from the sofa.
Yin Wang and Mimi also stood up vigilantly, only Ah Fu turned his head, glanced out the window, and then continued to hang on the windowsill.
Xu Xin calmed them down and then looked at the control panel again.
"This thing is really amazing." Xu Xin exclaimed.
Although he had seen this kind of operation from Qi Xuefei, it was the first time for him to do it himself. It felt extremely smooth and it was a tool that made him feel safe.
The attack range of the heavy crossbow controlled by this panel is not determined by the panel, but by the heavy crossbow itself.
His tree house is equipped with heavy crossbows of different levels. Clicking on the green-level heavy crossbow or the blue-level heavy crossbow will show a faint red circle indicating the shooting range. The shooting distance of the blue-level heavy crossbow is obviously about twice that of the green-level heavy crossbow.
It seems that even for a repeating crossbow loaded with explosive bolts, the blue level is stronger than the green level because it can shoot farther.
As for the blue-level heavy crossbow, Ma Hongwei can only make blue-level wooden heavy crossbows now, which require blue-level fine wood. This thing needs to be planted by oneself. Although there are many seeds and many people can plant and obtain them by themselves, not many people use blue-level soil to plant birch trees, so blue-level fine wood is very scarce.
But once he developed a blue-grade iron or even steel heavy crossbow, that would be easy. Although blue-grade iron ore and steel blocks were much harder to obtain than blue-grade fine wood for others, they were not short of them. With Li Wenxi and him, such resources were abundant.
Now, let Ma Hongwei make some green-level heavy crossbows.
There are still two left, and Xu Xin first traded one to Ji Chaoyang and Li Wenxi.
Ji Chaoyang immediately agreed to the deal.
Li Wenxi was still outside and could not complete the transaction, but she immediately sent a voice message to Xu Xin.
"Can this control panel be mass-produced?" Li Wenxi asked with some surprise.
Her voice echoed, clearly she was in a mine. If she wasn't in a mine, she would have definitely sent a video instead of a voice message.
Xu Xin told her that it was not enough and he could only supply the explorers first.
"Logs? It seems that Zhao Xiaochuan has a plantation house over there. Why not let him plant blue-level logs?" Li Wenxi suggested.
"No, the pine tree is nearly ten meters tall and cannot be planted inside the house. It can only be planted outside. There is no point in planting it in a house." Xu Xin shook his head.
Li Wenxi doesn't have a farm, he just grows some vegetables and fruits, so it's normal that he didn't think of this.
"That's right. Then this control panel can only be used as high-end weapon equipment for now."
"By the way, you should dig up more saltpeter today. We're going to start mass-producing explosive crossbow bolts. Do you have enough saltpeter in your mine?"
"Don't worry about the reserves. There are so many of them. It won't be a problem to supply our entire district!" Li Wenxi assured.
"Won't you be exhausted to death if you supply the entire district?" Xu Xin joked.
"Ah? You really want to supply the entire district..." Li Wenxi's tone suddenly became a little weak, "No, you're really going to tire me to death..."
"Well... just pick as much as you can today. I'll send you another worker this afternoon, and I'll ask Lou Fei'er to help you too."
Xu Xin was naturally talking about Le Youfang. Le Youfang should not have any special abilities. Xu Xin did not intend to transplant his tree house here. It would be just right to send it to Li Wenxi for mining.
Moreover, since we already know that there will be a crisis tomorrow, we must naturally prepare enough explosive crossbows, weapons that can exert considerable power in anyone's hands.
"Is it so urgent? Well...why don't you come over and help?" Li Wenxi didn't know there would be a beast tide tomorrow, so she was relatively relaxed. She wanted to be with Xu Xin so that she could relax.
