The two headed west.
"There used to be a small river here." Zhao Xiaochuan pointed to the ground below, "but now it's frozen and buried in the snow."
"Hmm..." Coco poked her head out from Xu Xin's arms and looked around.
Zhao Xiaochuan had indeed said before that by walking along the river from his tree house, one could find Qin Yunlong's tree house.
"My tree house is actually quite far from Qin Yunlong's tree house," Zhao Xiaochuan said a little embarrassedly. "About 40 kilometers? That's why I couldn't find it for a long time."
More than forty kilometers...
If you use a powered skateboard, it will take about an hour.
"Then let's speed up." Xu Xin stepped lightly on the power ski board, and with a "buzz" sound, he increased the speed to the maximum.
He hadn't used the highest speed before because there were many trees in the jungle and he was afraid of hitting a tree due to his lack of skills.
Now, after skating for so long, he has become very skilled and naturally does not need to be so careful anymore.
But even at the fastest speed, it will take at least nearly an hour to get there.
The consciousness shifts and a map emerges from the mind.
He had already explored the map extensively. From Wen Guixin's tree house to Qin Yunlong's tree house, and then to Qin Yunhu's tree house, the entire route, as well as the surroundings, were clearly visible on the map.
Although they did not encounter any danger or mutant creatures along the way, there were still sporadic red dots around.
Those places where there are more red dots, or even where they are clustered, are not on their route, which saves them a lot of trouble.
After gliding for about half an hour, his watch vibrated. It was a voice message from Li Wenxi.
"Xu Xin, what's going on? Are all the coordinates activated?"
The voice was played out loud, and Zhao Xiaochuan also heard it, and immediately winked at him.
"It's still early, at least an hour." Xu Xin glanced at Zhao Xiaochuan and looked forward.
The crown of Zhao Xiaochuan’s tree house is not very clear, after all, the whole view is white.
"So slow? I thought you'd be back soon." Li Wenxi's footsteps and the sound of her sitting down on the sofa were heard over the voice chatter. "I'm almost done here. No one has sent me a private message in half an hour. I guess no one will come over. Now all I have to do is wait."
"How many people were there in total in the end?" Xu Xin asked.
"I didn't count... Ji Chaoyang should have posted it in the group, right? Let me see, um, 132 people? Wow, that's a lot!"
"132 people?" Zhao Xiaochuan, who was standing next to him, also began to check the explorers and was also very surprised. "Then each of us can get... 15 people? That's really a lot..."
"Why, are you afraid that you can't afford to support them?" Xu Xin glanced at him and smiled.
"How is that possible? We can definitely afford to support them, but..." Zhao Xiaochuan was a little worried, "If there are too many people, won't the disaster be even more serious?"
"Our strength is also greater!" Li Wenxi said on the voice line. "Also, with the portal, we can easily help each other and won't be afraid of attacks at all!"
Indeed, if it was before, when the two sides were not yet connected, to be honest, Xu Xin would not dare to accept so many people, but now...
When the auxiliary system's abilities and the combat system's abilities are combined, it's definitely not as simple as one plus one equals two.
Team combat effectiveness is a qualitative improvement.
If it's just defense, there's basically no problem.
"Consumed...more than a hundred blue-grade iron blocks?" Xu Xin asked.
This consumption is not small. You know, these more than 100 blue iron blocks can be smelted into steel blocks using steel fire, and she also
"Ah, my heart aches just talking about this!" Li Wenxi's tone suddenly became slightly distressed. "My inventory is almost empty again! Um... I won't say anymore. I have to take everyone out to mine! The inventory is too low, I'm a little panicked, I need to go restock!"
"Wait a moment, Wen Xi, I want to give each of the nine people in our team a set of purple-grade steel armor. Do we have enough materials?" Xu Xin asked.
“…A set of purple-grade steel armor for each person?! You you you…” Li Wenxi was stunned when he heard Xu Xin’s words.
After a few seconds, she spoke again: "I... let me calculate. One set of steel armor will cost about four purple-grade steel blocks and twelve blue-grade steel blocks. If I use eight sets... well... just kill me!"
"Hmm?" Coco tilted her head in Xu Xin's arms.
"Ah, this..." Xu Xin touched his nose a little embarrassedly, "They will provide purple-grade steel blocks to upgrade the tree house core, and there will be a group of people coming this time. We have no shortage of purple-grade steel blocks, so you just need to provide enough blue-grade steel blocks."
"Well, that's acceptable, but it's not enough right now," Li Wenxi explained. "All the blue-grade steel blocks were used to make the coordinates, and the blue-grade iron blocks are almost gone. Now I'm almost out of materials above blue grade. Let's wait and see what I've harvested today."
Zhao Xiaochuan, gliding alongside, couldn't help but laugh when he heard the conversation. "Hahaha, now that I calculate it, it seems like a lot of materials are needed. Why don't we make weapons first? Weapons require much less steel, right? We already have purple-grade wood. Blue-grade armor is enough for now."
Xu Xin nodded and said, "Let's take a look at Wen Xi's achievements today. If they are sufficient, we will equip everyone with them. If not, we will make weapons first."
"Wow, wow, you're exploiting my labor!" Li Wenxi's voice was tinged with resentment. "Now I have to support not only you, but the entire Explorer community as well... The inventory will be empty for a long time... I'm not going to say any more. I need to get out of here!"
