Chapter 496: Exploring the Abnormal



"I... okay..." Li Wenxi lowered his head and muttered, "You said the same thing last time."

Last time, I was probably talking about the exploration of the underground world.

As a result, they came back after a day and a night.

Xu Xin could also understand her feelings. After all, waiting was very painful.

"Wenxi, here's my watch." Lou Feier took off her watch and handed it to Li Wenxi. "My watch is still usable, so you can contact us."

"I have a watch too! Ah..." Zeng Tao slid her watch, "My watch doesn't work anymore..."

It seemed that her tree house had been eaten by insects before.

She also said that when she returned to the tree house before, the inside of her tree house was already full of insects, so her tree house was probably destroyed when the insects first started to eat it.

However, giving Li Wenxi a watch that can communicate is actually what Xu Xin wanted to do.

Lou Feier did it before him.

They need to make sure they can communicate with the treehouse because…

The place they were going to now was very close to the tree house.

A distance of eight hundred meters is within the range of the tree house heavy crossbow!

If any situation or danger arises, they can use the tree house heavy crossbow!

"Wenxi, I'll be on the phone with you. Please help us operate the heavy crossbow in the tree house. If anything happens, we'll need your help."

"Heavy crossbow? Ah!" Li Wenxi immediately understood what Xu Xin meant and nodded vigorously, "Okay! I understand!"

At the same time, Xu Xin also contacted Ma Hongwei and asked him to provide him with remote support in the tree house.

With the support of the tree house heavy crossbow, he immediately felt much more confident.

"Okay, let's hurry up and get going then."

He brought the three girls down from the tree house.

"It's so hot!"

The temperature under the tree house was as hot as ever.

“Hmm!!”

The four of them wrapped themselves tightly, while Xu Xin held Coco, who was struggling from the heat, in his arms and rushed out of the line of fire. There were still many swarms of insects when they passed the campfire.

These insects probably came from farther away, following the light. His campfire cleared away all the insects in a large area around it.

After entering the jungle, the number of insects was greatly reduced.

Compared to the number at the beginning of the insect plague, the current number is basically equivalent to nothing.

Three hundred meters away from the tree house, the temperature returned to normal.

The temperature was around 40 degrees, which was not considered high for the people present.

But Coco's condition is not very good.

It was almost cooked!

It looked listless, its whole body lying limply in Xu Xin's arms.

Xu Xin was moving as fast as he could towards the place where Qin Fu disappeared.

The three women followed closely behind him.

Among the four of them, Xu Xin should be the slowest.

Lou Feier and Zeng Tao's mutations are both speed-related, while Jin Yue's mutation is her legs, which are also very fast, so it is relatively easy for her to follow Xu Xin who is moving at full speed.

A few dozen seconds later, Xu Xin stopped about fifty or sixty meters away from where Qin Fu disappeared.

"It's just ahead, you guys be careful." Xu Xin reminded, then walked forward slowly and cautiously.

Lou Feier quickly walked in front of Xu Xin and said, "I'll explore the way."

Jin Yue was always paying attention to the situation behind her.

Zeng Tao followed Xu Xin, holding a huge blade. However, this time she was very careful not to let the blade make any noise by rubbing against the ground.

The three women looked as if they were protecting him.

"...My fighting ability should not be much weaker than yours. There is no need to be so careful." Xu Xin was a little speechless.

"That's impossible!" Zeng Tao swung her giant blade. "If you die, we'll all be buried with you. Even if we die, we still have one life left. Any normal person would know what to choose."

Although Jin Yue did not sign a contract with Xu Xin, she was doing the same thing.

That's fine.

"Um...are you almost there?" At this time, Li Wenxi's very quiet voice came from Xu Xin's watch.

"Well, go further and you'll find where Qin Fu disappeared."

"This... the jungle is too dense. I can't see where you are... I don't know where you are."

"Don't worry. If there's real danger, we'll also launch explosive crossbow attacks. The explosion of crossbow bolts is more noticeable at night."

"Oh, okay!"

The four continued to move forward cautiously.

"...There doesn't seem to be anything special here?" Lou Feier, who was walking in front, asked with some confusion.

There are indeed more insects here than in the jungle around the tree house, but that's because most of the insects around the tree house are fighting the fire, so there seem to be fewer.

It is normal to have more here, so the people present are indeed a little confused now.

"...Watch your step." Xu Xin reminded.

Based on Qin Fu's current condition, he had some rough guesses.

He couldn't see Qin Fu's light spot on his current map.

In this situation, there are two possibilities.

One possibility is that Qin Fu is now underground, so his map cannot show it.

Another possibility is that he is too far away from here and beyond the range of his map, so he cannot be displayed.

Considering that his watch cannot communicate now, these are probably the two possibilities.
