MTL - Starting Off Survival With A Small Treehouse-Chapter 581 Layer upon layer of 4 lines of defense! Cannon!
On the second day of the World Tree Siege, nothing happened on the ground.
Xu Xin looked at the sun sinking halfway into the skyline, but she didn't dare to relax.
During this day, they completed all the actions planned before.
Around the World Tree, a large circle of ravines was dug out.
With the help of three pangolins, the depth of the gully exceeded ten meters to fifteen meters.
Due to the limitation of the location, digging down is the root of the world tree, so the digging stopped.
The width of the gully also reached an astonishing nearly five meters wide.
This width wastes a lot of effort on their part.
However, they also have a reason for doing so.
Because, not long ago, Ji Zhaoyang told them that he had obtained the prophecy for the next day.
He saw large swathes of mutated creatures pouring into Crystal City, and they were not affected by Crystal City in the slightest.
"It's not that big, it's the size of a normal creature, but the bloodstains on its body are indeed extremely bright red."
Ji Zhaoyang described it like this.
That is to say, the other party has also reacted, or in other words, they have learned that this crystal city only affects the blood of giant beasts during today's probing.
Therefore, they did not send another group of beasts with the blood of giant beasts to launch an attack above the ground, but assembled a group of beasts with only mutated blood.
"These beasts are not weak in themselves, lions, tigers, brown bears, etc. Although they don't have the blood of giant beasts, their own strength must not be underestimated." Ji Zhaoyang told everyone.
"However, in my prophecy, I didn't see any flying intruders, but that doesn't mean there wasn't any, after all, even now, my prophecy can only last about twenty minutes.
No one knows if there will be more powerful enemies coming, such as..."
Ji Chaoyang pointed to the ground.
Everyone knew what he was talking about.
Those of the underworld... petrified pterosaurs and more!
So, after confirming that there would be monsters attacking tomorrow, the gully originally planned to be about two meters was directly expanded to five meters.
This width is enough to keep most ground creatures out.
Of course, the ability of mutant creatures may be stronger, and five meters may not be a big deal to them, but it can also act as a hindrance.
And Xu Xin, Ji Chaoyang, Wen Guixin, and Wang Lei transplanted the tree house to the surrounding area, near the trunk of the World Tree.
Because the tree houses of the four of them all have plant hearts!
The tree houses of the four of them are distributed in the four directions of the trunk, east, west, north, south, making the entire surrounding of the world tree become the attack range of the plant heart.
The World Trees of the other explorers are all a few meters away from the gully, and they are responsible for attacking enemies on the ground, in the air, and in the gully.
In addition, in the surrounding Crystal City, there are nearly 200 treehouses with heavy crossbow defenses.
That's right, two hundred people.
Although only one day passed, Xu Xin sent over hundreds of people one after another.
Li Yajun is responsible for guiding and receiving these people, filling the tree house defense line around the World Tree, and adding tree house heavy crossbows to them.
The first batch of people who arrived were all from District 188, and most of them were survivors around the large teleportation array that Niu Fugui activated last.
At that time, the group of survivors who could have arrived hadn't prepared to leave yet, and the cold winter was over, resulting in the disappearance of the reward of "the whole area is a safe area" obtained by area 188, so they did not dare to leave.
But now, the existence of the World Tree has turned the entire District 188 into a safe area again. As soon as they received the news, they were overjoyed and rushed over without stopping.
These people came here without hesitation, and they belonged to the strong and bold people themselves.
Although they were about to join the battle as soon as they came, they didn't feel that there was anything wrong, but they were all very excited.
"What a powerful equipment!"
"As expected of a master explorer!"
"Don't worry, big brothers, we will protect the World Tree!"
"Haha, Crystal City and World Tree, although I have heard them talk about it for a long time, but seeing it with my own eyes, I suddenly feel confident!"
"Have you seen the mutated creatures outside of Crystal City! They really scared me to death when they came here, but they turned out to be the guards of Crystal City! We are invincible!"
That's what these guys think.
Indeed, the entire huge crystal city exuding white light, and the towering world tree that shocked everyone's eyes, are really shocking to a group of survivors who have been living alone.
Shocked beyond measure.
Under such a strong impact, their confidence was bursting, and it was normal for them to think that they were invincible.
As for the group of mutated creatures outside of Crystal City, Xu Xin handed over all the authority to ***.
*** Within a day, she became the well-deserved king of the peripheral mutant creatures, making them bow their heads.
This is not a difficult task, because *** has already unknowingly promoted to a high-level mutant creature!
Even Xu Xin didn't know this!
Xu Xin used her mind-reading ability to chat with ***, only to find out that the troll's meat and the mutated biological medicine obtained underground had made its ability improve rapidly, and when it was in charge of guarding Shi Wanyun, it had already Got advanced.
If it wasn't for the terrifying speed it suddenly erupted, Xu Xin would have always thought it was hovering at the middle level.
With such an invincible explosive speed, killing Xu Xin who was within ten meters was only a matter of one paw, and he couldn't possibly react.
Fortunately, *** still has a contract with him, and it also has the blood of a giant beast. Crystal City also has a strong influence on it, so there is no need to worry that *** will be controlled by the other party because of the blood of the mutant creature.
Similarly, under the influence of Crystal City, its size has also become larger than before.
Ever since, becoming the king of mutant creatures is a matter of course.
Compared with ***, Ah Fu was promoted to the intermediate level, but Yin Wang was not promoted to the advanced level, but fortunately, he was already very close.
In short, with the help of ***, the outermost line of mutant biological defenses has also been properly arranged.
During this day, the inner and outer defense lines of Crystal City have been properly arranged by the outer circle.
The outermost layer, the mutated biological defense line.
On the second floor, the tree house with 200 survivors was heavily defended.
The third layer guards the underground and ground ravines, as well as the line of defense composed of strong explorers like them.
On the fourth floor, the plant heart protection line in the gully, and Xu Xin's super heavy crossbow weapon.
All the lines of defense have been completely arranged!
Four layers of defense, layer upon layer interlocking!
Just waiting for the enemies who intend to attack the world tree to attack.
This time, they were well prepared!
Xu Xin twisted her neck to relax her mind that had been tense all day.
According to Qin Fu's report, there was nothing worth noting in Crystal City or outside the city today.
I don't know why the opponent didn't attack today, and gave them plenty of preparation time.
Maybe the other party also needs to prepare. After all, it is not an easy task to prepare an army of mutant creatures without the blood of giant beasts on this earth.
Perhaps they are also gathering forces.
But it also requires more attention.
If they thought before that the opponent's real means of attack was to sneak in from the ground and steal the crystal of the World Tree, then now, everyone in the explorers believes that the ground and the ground are their main means of attack.
The ground is not to cover the underground, but the soldiers are divided into two groups.
The mutated creatures on the ground are also here to destroy the world tree!
So, you have to be extra careful.
There are also air enemies that they cannot yet identify.
In short, tomorrow's battle is still unknown.
Everything they can do is ready, and the rest can only do their best.
At this moment, Xu Xin's watch suddenly vibrated.
It was Shi Wanyun who was far away in District 1 calling.
"It's basically settled here, I convinced them." Shi Wanyun said, bringing the good news in a soft voice.
"How did you convince them? You told them the truth?"
"Of course not." Shi Wanyun smiled lightly, "I have spent so much effort to tell you the truth, how could I possibly tell them directly. And didn't you say you couldn't tell them?"
"and you…"
"I just used my ability to show the other party World Tree and Crystal City, and told him that this is the city owned by your explorers."
This operation is... simple and effective.
Even the powerhouses in District 1 will definitely be shocked by the combination of Crystal City and the towering giant tree.
but…
"Didn't you say that you don't want others to know your abilities?" Xu Xin asked.
"Just letting one of them know, Cheng Jun'an, you should have heard of his name."
Cheng Junan.
His name was on the previous Snow Mountain Ranking List.
After establishing an alliance in the two areas and connecting them, the other party even had a private chat with him.
But it's just some normal greetings, that is, after a few words, everyone will cooperate and win-win together, survive together and so on.
This man named Cheng Jun'an, like Shi Wanyun, also won the first place in the leaderboard of District 1, so it can be said that he is a strong player in District 1 at the same level as Shi Wanyun.
"I only told him about one person, he didn't need to talk about my abilities."
"Brown to forehead?"
"... I just touched him and let him take a look at the scene." Shi Wanyun chuckled, "Don't worry, I'm not interested in him. He is also very wary of me. If it wasn't for the increase in affinity, I might not be able to get close he."
"...I didn't mean that." Xu Xin said helplessly, "So, he helped you convince people in District 1."
"Yes, we have two of the strongest people in District 1 as endorsers, telling everyone in District 1 that we are going to District 188 to help protect the World Tree, and now all people in District 1 are ready to move."
This saves a lot of effort.
Even the bosses in this area ran away, and the remaining survivors would naturally follow suit.
"However, he also has conditions.
There are also some people in District 1 who are very opposed to it now, because those people have already taken refuge in other strong people in District 1, and their tree houses cannot be transplanted again. Cheng Junan can agree because he only accepts two people, and his condition is...
Let these two people who are parasitic in his tree house now have a parasitic tree house. I said yes for him. "
"It's a good promise, there's no problem with that."
There are quite a few empty parasitic tree houses in the hands of the explorers, and it is no problem to divide them into two.
Moreover, the World Tree itself is also a huge tree house. After the World Tree grows, it doesn't matter whether the parasitic tree house is needed or not.
Now, the survivors in Area 188 will no longer hear the prompt "Find the tree house as soon as possible, or leave the beautiful world" after cutting down their tree house.
In other words, in fact, in District 188, which is affected by the World Tree, there is no need to worry about problems caused by losing the tree house.
A personal tree house or something is no longer a necessity.
Because they already have a huge tree house.
"Lou Fei'er and Jin Yue, don't you know your ability yet?"
"I don't know, I'm communicating with you now, but behind their backs. They are now
We are dealing with the survivors in Zone 1. Nearly ten survivors have come to our side. We should be able to pass tonight. "
"Okay, then come directly. Does Ji Zhaoyang know about this?"
"I must know that Cheng Jun'an himself was in contact with Ji Chaoyang, and he contacted there immediately after he agreed."
"Well, then just leave it to him."
Ji Chaoyang has always been in charge of the affairs in District 1, and Xu Xin will not intervene.
"We have opened teleportation today. You can come here anytime. If you want to come, it's best to come tonight." He looked at the sky outside and said.
The sun has completely set.
it's dark.
"Okay, the ordinary survivors in District 1 will be sent there first. Cheng Jun'an won't be in the district for the time being. He still needs to guide the survivors from District 1 here."
"Well, I see."
After hanging up the call, Xu Xin contacted Ji Chaoyang just to be on the safe side.
The other party had indeed received the message, and it was from Cheng Jun'an.
"Then leave it to you."
"good."
After hanging up the call, Xu Xin checked the time.
The sun is setting, but it's not long before the end of the day.
Now, it's just seven o'clock in the evening.
So he went to find Ma Hongwei again.
Zeng Tao is still in Ma Hongwei's tree house at this time.
"Xu Xin! Xu Xin!"
Seeing Xu Xin approaching, Zeng Tao immediately rushed towards him.
Xu Xin didn't dare to let her pounce on her, so she quickly dodged to her side.
Zeng Tao rushed to nothing, but turned her head and pulled him into the house with an excited expression on her face: "Come and see quickly! See what I have done!"
"What..." Xu Xin was pulled by Zeng Tao, turned his head to look at Ma Hongwei who was tired and slightly relieved, "It's done?"
"It's done..." Ma Hongwei felt exhausted, "It's finally done just now."
Zeng Tao dragged him into Ma Hongwei's manufacturing room. As soon as he entered, Xu Xin saw a heavy cannon that was bigger than a person lying on the floor.
Moreover, it has a handle that can be used by hand.
But the size and material...
I'm afraid ordinary people can't move it, let alone lift it up.
"Dangdangdangdang! Awesome! I made it! A cannon that can be held!" Zeng Tao immediately pointed at the cannon on the ground with his hips on his hands.
Xu Xin reached out to touch the cannon.
【Stone Heavy Cannon (Blue): A heavy cannon that can be held in hand. There is a gunpowder tank inside. It can be fired twice after being filled. 】
A powerful heavy artillery!
Xu Xin tried to lift it up, but...reluctantly.
It can be lifted, but it is impossible for him to use it smoothly.
"You're so weak!" Zeng Tao immediately grabbed the handle on the cannon with both hands and lifted it.
The huge cannon body was easily picked up by her!
Then, as soon as she raised her hand, she easily lifted the heavy cannon, which weighed at least a ton and was two meters long, and carried it on her seemingly extremely slender shoulders.
But she didn't feel any difficulty at all, but smiled triumphantly: "How about it, isn't it super strong! Boom!"
A small man carrying a big cannon.
The muzzle of the black hole was still facing Xu Xin.
Lolita with cannons, although this scene is a bit out of harmony, I have to say...
nice combination.
"Good job, haven't you tried the power yet?" Xu Xin asked.
"No. This is just an experimental cannon. We still need to upgrade its structure and power, and then use metals, such as purple-grade steel, or meteorite to make it." Ma Hongwei said wearily, UU reading www.uukanshu .com "However, the current version is not unusable. But I don't have much energy now, Brother Xin, come and accompany her, I want to rest."
Helping children do their homework, let Ma Hongwei
Exhausted, he just wants to rest now.
"Let's go, let's go out and try!" Zeng Tao begged, holding the giant cannon in one hand and holding Xu Xin's arm with the other, "I just researched this all day long!"
"I'm the one doing the research..." Ma Hongwei rolled his eyes.
Xu Xin was indeed very interested in this artillery.
It can be fired only by loading gunpowder, and does not need to consume metal or other materials to make ammunition.
The significance of this is too great.
I don't know how powerful it is in this case.
"Okay, let's try it."
