Xu Xin didn't pay attention to Ji Chaoyang's first words, but his second words made his eyes light up.
"I almost forgot. Coco was attracted by the large red berries in her pocket. Naturally, those beasts would be interested in the blue-grade fruit as well."
Xu Xin thought about it and decided to release some information in the group.
"Blue-grade fruits won't attract wild beasts before they're picked. Only after we survivors pick them will they possess their quality and appeal. You don't have to worry about wild beasts eating all the blue-grade ingredients, but be careful when picking them in the wild and put them in your backpack as soon as possible, otherwise you'll attract powerful wild beasts.
Of course, you can also judge whether the fruit is blue grade by the reactions of the surrounding beasts."
Ji Chaoyang also popped his head up: "I really don't know this, but now that you mention it, I remember another piece of information. The beast's body must be cut using the boning knife made in the tree house. I tried to cut it myself yesterday, but the meat and skin I cut off were not of the same grade.
Animal skins cannot be used to make backpacks and armor, and the cut meat cannot be traded on the trading platform. It is just ordinary meat and skin. The meat does not affect your own consumption. Although the skins can be used to make an animal skin backpack, it does not have the storage and weight reduction functions of the tree house backpack.
So everyone, don’t choose to cut it yourself just because the boning knife misses something, because what you cut out will be useless.”
"Oh?" Xu Xin narrowed his eyes and began to think.
He remembered the introduction of the blue-grade boning knife.
[Boning Knife (Blue): A delicate knife that can quickly decompose wild animal corpses. It has a chance to obtain blue-level or lower materials.]
Using this boning knife has a chance of obtaining blue-level materials. In other words, the reason for obtaining blue-level materials is not the original level of the beast corpse, but because of this knife.
This also explains why the 200-kilogram wild boar that Xu Xin hunted with great effort did not produce any blue materials, but the poisonous snake that he stepped on to death produced some.
The beast's corpse affects the type of materials it produces, and the level of the boning knife affects the level of the materials. Perhaps the corpse of a powerful beast is more likely to produce high-level materials.
The reason may be similar to what Xu Xin had previously speculated about why red berries do not attract wild animals before they are picked.
These so-called attributes are bestowed by this survival game. The original beasts have no levels, and he cannot use his abilities to see the green, blue, and purple light on the beasts. He can only see red dots of different brightness using the map.
The boning knife gives these materials cut from wild animals a property that allows them to be used in the manufacture of tree houses.
This conjecture further proves that these so-called green, blue and purple resource levels are not something that this world originally possesses, but are given by this survival game.
There is a mysterious big hand controlling this world and these alien survivors.
Shaking his head, Xu Xin suppressed these thoughts in his heart. Now is not the time to think about these things.
He sent a private message to Ji Chaoyang: "Did you find any strange buildings when you were hunting yesterday?"
Ji Chaoyang replied after a while: "Indeed, there are several stone pillars where the beasts gather. They are too far away for me to see clearly, but they look a bit like an altar or something."
Altar? Xu Xin pondered. Judging from their positions, the exposed stone pillars could indeed be seen as the four vertices of a square, just like the four corners of an altar.
"Yeah, it's the same as what I saw. I plan to go check it out today."
"Be careful, the beasts around here are tough and strong, we can't deal with them right now."
"good."
After hanging up the call, Xu Xin turned around to look at Yin Wang and Coco. The two guys had become familiar with each other. Yin Wang was lying on the ground, and Coco was lying on the back of Yin Wang's neck, grabbing the wolf's fur with her little paws and burying her head in the fur, looking very comfortable.
"Okay, we're going out to hunt wild animals."
Xu Xin checked the map and found that there were many red dots around the tree house. The brightest one was about the same brightness as a black bear. There were no groups of wild beasts, and the wolf pack had already gone far away.
After loading the crossbow with a standard bolt, Xu Xin went upstairs and activated the heavy crossbow's automatic firing mode. Perhaps he'd find something unexpected when he returned.
Xu Xin brought Yin Wang and Coco to the ground.
It was Xu Xin’s first time riding a wolf, and he was a little excited.
As if he had sensed Xu Xin's intention, the Silver King bent down directly.
"Very well-behaved." Xu Xin touched the Silver King's head and directly mounted on the wolf's back.
After Xu Xin settled down, Silver King stood up. Xu Xin clamped his legs around the wolf's body, his hands gripping the fur on its back, feeling a little nervous.
He had been to the grasslands of Inner Mongolia and ridden the horses tamed there for entertainment. He held the reins tightly with both hands and was led by the horse to run several laps around the racecourse. After getting off, both arms were weak, so he didn't dare to let Silver King run casually.
It is impossible for an untrained person to ride a horse directly.
Coco also climbed onto his shoulders at this time.
Xu Xin let the Silver King run two steps. He was surprised to find that although there was no saddle-like device installed, he seemed to have merged with the Silver King and was as relaxed and at ease as if he had merged into one. He would not be thrown off even without holding the wolf's hair with his hands.
It seems that this is the ability of the contract.
Convenient ability.
"Silver King, run in that direction." Xu Xin pointed to a direction to Silver King. There were a few darker red dots over there. Xu Xin planned to try the crossbow in his hand.
The Silver King let out a wolf howl and quickly ran towards the direction Xu Xin pointed.
