The direction the pointer was pointing to was exactly the direction the stream was flowing, which meant that the silver treasure chest was most likely on the same path he took when he came here.
"Could it be a black bear cave?"
Xu Xin gazed at the compass, lost in thought. He had actually carefully observed the surroundings as he came from his birthplace, and aside from a black bear den along the way, there didn't seem to be anything special.
Of course, the location of the treasure chest cannot be determined by common sense. After all, who would have known that the copper treasure chest was located in the tuberous root of the vine?
This location was truly hellish. If it weren't for his abilities, he would have been hit by now, and even if he didn't die, he would have been injured.
The location of the silver treasure chest this time is probably unusual, so we have to be careful everywhere.
"Let's go to the black bear cave first. I wonder if there are still bears in the cave now."
The skin of the black bear Xu Xin had killed had become a backpack on his back. He opened the map and looked at the black bear cave on the map. There was no red light in the cave at this time.
"This black bear might really be the one in the black bear cave." Xu Xin was a little happy. If that was true, it would be the best.
Last time, he only managed to kill a wounded and defenseless black bear with the help of the tree house. If he really faced a black bear head-on with a cold weapon, he would only turn into bear poop. If the black bear didn't die, then he could only outsmart it.
At this time, Coco was lying on the table, moving the compass needle with her little paws.
The compass had entered its cooling phase and would not be usable for the next two hours, so the pointer moved feebly as Coco turned it, like a clock with a slipped thread.
Xu Xin clicked on the regional channel, and the number of people on the channel had dropped below 8,000, with only 7,987 remaining. He remembered taking a look when he left that morning, and the number of people on the regional channel was 8,140 at that time.
"150 people died so quickly?" Xu Xin was a little shocked. These people might have been killed by the monsters carrying treasure chests. Moreover, some people might not have encountered a copper treasure chest for the first time, but a gold or silver treasure chest. The monsters guarding those treasure chests might be even more powerful.
Now it seems that the so-called last-end elimination is just a means to get the survivors out of the tree house. The real danger is the monsters guarding the treasure chests.
Xu Xin became cautious and didn't want to die in the monster's sneak attack.
As a cautious person, if he didn't have a map that could help him predict danger in advance, he might have stayed in the tree house and not come out even though he had already obtained the copper treasure chest.
At this time, someone in the regional channel was already saying the same thing.
"Is anyone there? Has anyone come back?"
"I'm back, I'm back! I got the bronze treasure chest! I had just walked out of the house and not far when a snake as thick as a bowl emerged from the ground and wrapped itself around me. It almost strangled me to death!"
"Huh? Was that a snake you encountered? Then how did you survive?"
"Hey, I was lucky. The stick in my hand just happened to get stuck in its mouth. This snake was strange, it broke apart on its own after a few seconds. If I had held on a few more seconds, I would have been strangled to death. Luckily, there was a copper treasure chest in the hole it came out of, so I didn't get strangled in vain. Anyway, I won't go out again. This NIMA thing is too dangerous. One copper treasure chest is enough."
"You are really too dangerous!"
"What about you? Did you get the copper treasure chest?"
"Me? I haven't left yet."
"? Aren't you afraid of death?"
"A wild beast bit off one of my legs. I'm already waiting to die. I'll die anyway if I get out. Maybe not many people will find the treasure chest. These 50 people on the bottom are randomly selected from all those who returned empty-handed."
"...You seem to be in a good mood." "My condolences, my friend." "We will die together."
A few words from other people popped up sporadically on the regional channel.
"If you have a bad attitude, you don't have to die? Even if you die, you should die happily. By the way, what's in your copper treasure chest? Can you tell me?"
"Nothing much, just a bag of fertilizer and two packets of seeds."
Xu Xin watched their conversation silently.
It seems that although some people did not die in the beast tide, they were seriously injured and basically unable to move. Otherwise, they would not have stayed there and left their fate to God. This also sounded a wake-up call for Xu Xin. Being seriously injured means that they will be eliminated in the next event.
And from the words of the brother who got the treasure chest, it seems that the dangers faced by everyone are different, but the things in the copper treasure chest seem to be similar. I wonder if his seeds are the same as mine.
Originally, Xu Xin wanted to get some information from the channel, but since the locations of each survivor's treasure chests and the dangers they encountered were different, it was of no use as a reference.
In order to avoid being sleepy in the afternoon, Xu Xin ate an orange, kept a few oranges he picked in the morning in his backpack, put the rest in the tree house, and gave one to Coco.
The little guy enjoyed the meal very much.
"Don't drop orange juice on my shoulder."
"Hmm!"
Xu Xin followed the stream upstream. This was a route he had walked many times: the first time was before planting the tree house, the second time was to collect pebbles (green) from the stream, and he also found stones (green) in the black bear cave. He walked back and forth.
In fact, Xu Xin didn't notice anything unusual about the road along the stream during these trips.
Silver chests are likely to appear suddenly like bronze chests.
Moreover, there might be special situations like the weeds and shrubs beside the stream, indicating the location of the treasure chest, so Xu Xin kept an eye out for any subtle changes around him as he walked.
