Just as he turned around, he discovered a faint blue light emitting from not far away in another direction.
There are blue-level resources over there.
He looked around and found that there were no wild animals nearby, so he walked over.
It turned out to be a blue-grade poplar tree.
"What a great harvest! The blue-grade timber is almost used up." Xu Xin happily cut down the poplar tree.
After collecting the newly cut wood (blue), Xu Xin looked in the direction of the stone pillars he had seen before. Although his view was blocked by the dense jungle, he could still see dots of blue light mixed in with the green light.
"Let's not go today. It's more important to go back and make the crossbow and heavy crossbow first." Xu Xin took a look at the pile of materials in his backpack and decided to go back.
This resource area is surrounded by a circle of hills, but there is also a ground exit between two hills.
Xu Xin glanced at the nearest exit. The map was covered with red dots, which should be where the wild boars lived.
Forget it, he still has to climb over the mountain. He doesn’t want to face the wild boars.
There weren't many wild animals on the hills. Because it wasn't within the resource zone, there were only a few scattered patches of green on the entire hilltop. Xu Xin conveniently picked up the few green resources he could.
Back to the top of the hill, Xu Xin looked towards the stone pillar again.
"Huh? Has the statue changed?" Xu Xin frowned, a little confused.
Although he couldn't see what the statue was, its shape seemed to have changed.
Xu Xin was curious, but he suppressed his restless heart and chose to leave. The black bear cave only emitted a green light, which meant there was a black bear living there. The place that emitted a blue light must be much more dangerous than the black bear cave.
Let's update our equipment first.
"Oh, it would be great if I could contract a mount." Xu Xin sighed as he looked at the long journey home.
Coco still lay comfortably on his shoulder.
"Can you ride it when you grow up?" Xu Xin rubbed the little guy's head.
"Ohh?" Coco was confused. It could only be this big?
After nearly an hour's journey, Xu Xin finally returned to the tree house. It was already afternoon, and Xu Xin was feeling a little hungry.
When he arrived at the synthesis table, he first wanted to see if there were any tools that could be used to extract salt.
As he expected, Xu Xin found an iron tool in the production list.
[Salt Distillation Extractor (Green): Add salt crystals and water to it, add fuel below, and you can get pure salt. Requires Iron Block (Green)*2, Wood (Green)*5]
"It feels comfortable." Xu Xin immediately made the extractor.
This is an iron tool, which is unlocked after Xu Xin obtains the golden treasure chest. Currently, only he and Ji Chaoyang can make it. In other words, even if others find the salt mine, they cannot make an extractor and cannot obtain fine table salt.
Of course, it is not ruled out that some people will use their own methods to purify salt.
Xu Xin put salt crystals and water into the extractor, and added a few pieces of white wood, letting the extractor work. He took this time to make a blue-grade backpack.
[Excellent Backpack (Blue): A backpack with 20 slots. The amount of supplies that can be placed in each slot is determined by the type of supplies. The weight of the supplies can be reduced to 10% of their original weight.]
It has ten more slots than a green-level backpack and weighs half as much! This way, Xu Xin can carry even more things.
Continuing to work, Xu Xin also needs to make both the crossbow and the heavy crossbow.
Crossbow bolts and bow arrows require similar materials.
Crossbow Bolt (Green): The arrowhead is made of iron, the shaft is made of wood, and it's equipped with feathers. This is a very standard crossbow bolt, and it strikes with precision! Recyclable. 20 Crossbow Bolts (Green) require 2 Iron Blocks (Green), 2 Wood Blocks (White), and 2 Feathers (Green).
Crossbow bolts also require feathers, and he only had four owl feathers he'd picked up after the beast riot, so he could only make 40 crossbow bolts. But since they could be recycled, that was enough for now.
Xu Xin used wood (green) to make crossbow bolts, which should allow the crossbow bolts to be recycled more times.
With a quick glance, he saw another crossbow bolt that he could make.
[Poison Crossbow Bolts (Green): Poisoned crossbow bolts are made, capable of killing small beasts. Recyclable, returning them to normal crossbow bolts. 20 Poison Crossbow Bolts (Green) require 20 Crossbow Bolts (Green) and 1 Poison Sac (Green).]
One poison sac can poison 20 crossbow arrows!
Xu Xin immediately made 20 poison crossbow arrows. The arrowheads of the poison crossbow arrows were covered with a light green layer, which made them easy to distinguish from ordinary crossbow arrows. In this way, he had 20 ordinary crossbow arrows and 20 poison crossbow arrows.
A crossbow requires 5 pieces of wood (green), 2 pieces of iron (green), and 1 piece of animal tendon (green). According to Xu Xin's experience, blue-level tools require a blue-level main material. He doesn't have a blue-level animal tendon, so he can only make a green-level crossbow first.
Although it is a green-level crossbow, it still feels heavy in the hand.
"Finally, I have a long-range attack method!" Xu Xin exclaimed. He tried to attach an ordinary crossbow bolt to the crossbow, but it took a lot of effort to attach it.
"That shouldn't be how you string the crossbow, right?" Xu Xin observed carefully and discovered a foot-tight spot on the front of the crossbow. He removed the bolt from the crossbow and tried placing the front of the crossbow on the ground, stepping on that spot and pulling the string upward. This time, he loaded a bolt much more easily than directly.
