Starting Off Survival With A Small Treehouse

Chapter 1063 - 584: The Siege Begins, Crimson Tide!

Early the next morning, Xu Xin woke up.

Today’s random amplification is hearing enhancement, which is also his favorite amplification.

If vision enhancement allows him to grasp distant situations, then hearing enhancement lets him perfectly understand the situations around him.

Even the disturbances below the ground.

For today’s battle, hearing is definitely the most suitable amplification.

Outside the treehouse, various sounds reached his ears.

There were already quite a few people outside.

It seems everyone is rather excited because of the imminent battle.

”I still haven’t recovered from being in this Crystal City and World Tree! This city is just too beautiful!”

”We will win, won’t we? We’ll surely win!”

”I just got here and already have to participate in a battle, but why am I so excited about it!”

”Last night, the big guy Ma Hongwei even came over to help us install a new type of heavy crossbow for the treehouse. Feels like a door to a new world was opened!”

Quite a few survivors from Zone 1 have arrived, each of them excitedly discussing.

”Of course we will win, you newcomers don’t know, the big shots of the Explorers have already killed two giant beasts!”

”Giant beasts? What are giant beasts?” The survivor from Zone 1 asked in confusion.

The incident of Xu Xin repelling the Blood Pattern Giant and the giant insect was well known among all in Zone 188, but the people from Zone 1 were still unaware.

Although he only severely injured and repelled the two giant beasts, through rumors, it turned into them killing those two beasts.

Well, it’s almost right; the giant’s body was blown to bits, and the insect’s head was blown off.

These two big guys are unlikely to come back here.

”What? You don’t know about the giant beasts? Ah, Brother from Zone 1, um... surely you know about the monsters Ultraman fights, right? The size is about the same!”

”Wow, really? There’s such a monster?!” The person exclaimed in shock.

”Of course it’s real! I was there; I was on-site at Xu Xin’s treehouse! The power of that giant cannon was simply unmatched! Now with this Crystal City as the stronghold, we’re truly invincible, so don’t worry!”

”Shoot, I suddenly feel like I’m swelling with pride!”

”It’s so unreal!”

The conversations from outside reached his ears, making him smile slightly.

He actually had some concerns; with over a hundred new arrivals yesterday, having them participate in battle today might cause resentment.

But now it seems, compared to their solitary and cautious survival, fighting in this Crystal City, under the World Tree, is much safer for them.

Not to mention the Explorers have equipped every one of them and installed heavy crossbows for the treehouses.

Their personal strength has geometrically increased, and in such a situation, they naturally won’t be dissatisfied.

However...

The enemy to face today isn’t comparable to what they’ve faced before.

Xu Xin quickly cleaned up and took Keke down from the treehouse.

Keke had just woken up too, lying on his shoulder nibbling on half an apple.

Mimi was also brought down, and in an instant, it dashed away like a shadow.

As the commander of the outermost front line, the leader of the mutated beasts, it had to go to the front lines.

”It’s Xu Xin!”

Xu Xin hadn’t walked two steps before being spotted by other survivors.

”Don’t call him a big shot, call him Brother Xin!”

”Oh oh, Brother Xin! Brother Xin is so handsome!”

”So this is Xu Xin... ah, no, this is Brother Xin! As expected of someone who has always been first on the leaderboard!”

”Haha, even that mysterious voice overseeing everything is now infuriated by Brother Xin and his team.”

”Brother Xin is really handsome... does he need more women?” a girl whispered.

”Don’t even think about it; Brother Xin already has quite a few women around him, and each one is a real beauty,” a survivor from Zone 188 replied quietly.

Xu Xin nodded slightly awkwardly.

Although there are indeed quite a few women in his team, he actually only has that kind of relationship with Li Wenxi.

Xu Xin’s treehouse is inside a ravine, while those people are outside, not close by, so they thought he couldn’t hear and whispered among themselves.

A metal plate was placed across the ravine as a bridge, allowing Xu Xin to easily cross the five-meter wide ravine. Of course, this metal plate will be retracted when the battle begins.

Crossing the ravine, he walked up to the group, and they stopped talking.

Facing Xu Xin from such a close distance, they were still a bit reserved, but their gaze towards Xu Xin was filled with respect.

”How is it, are you adapting to living here?” Xu Xin walked up and smiled, ”The conditions here should be quite good.”

”Adapting, of course adapting!” Seeing Xu Xin’s friendly demeanor, others also relaxed and gathered around.

”I’ve never felt so safe before!” A strong man slapped his thigh and exclaimed, ”This place is simply heaven!”

Xu Xin laughed, ”Good, as long as you adapt. Since you’ve chosen this place, we won’t let you suffer. However, don’t be overly confident. Today’s battle isn’t as simple as you might think.”

Xu Xin’s words left the group looking at each other.

The strongest survivor said so, and they began to feel tense and serious.

”Remember, today’s battle, don’t let your treehouse be destroyed, and don’t come out of the treehouse. Use the crossbow bolts given to you wisely; don’t use them too fast, and don’t be too conservative. If your treehouse is also at risk of being destroyed...”
