Starting Off Survival With A Small Treehouse-Chapter 794 - 492 Night Falls Again (5,100 words)_2

Chapter 794: Chapter 492 Night Falls Again (5,100 words)_2

As soon as she got into the sunlight, Keke tilted her little head over, avoiding looking in the direction of the sun.

However, the sunlight hitting her tiny body didn’t seem to cause any harm.

The fur could protect her from injury.

If that’s the case...

What about those furry monsters and mutant creatures?

Does that mean... they won’t be harmed either?

It seems this kind of crisis is still something to be cautious about.

The current sunlight doesn’t seem to deter the enemy’s invasion.

Xu Xin arrived beneath Lou Fei’Er’s treehouse and directly manipulated the roots to enter it.

At that moment, Lou Fei’Er and Zeng Tao were already playfully wrestling on the couch.

Lou Fei’Er was having her way with the still-weak Zeng Tao, tickling her on the couch.

"Little girl, let’s see you talk wildly to me again!"

"Ahahaha... Oh, stop...! Hahaha, stop it!" Zeng Tao tugged at Lou Fei’Er’s face, but lacked the strength, rendering it useless, "I... I admit I was wrong! Stop... stop tickling!!"

Then both girls simultaneously saw Xu Xin come in, and Lou Fei’Er immediately bounced up to a sitting position, sitting properly.

Zeng Tao, on the other hand, lay sprawled on the couch, staring blankly at the ceiling: "Boohoo..."

Both girls were in disarray.

"Whimper?" Keke jumped to her side, tilting her little head as she looked at her, and was scooped up and held tightly in her arms for a rough cuddle.

"Whimper whimper?"

Looking at them, they were still full of energy, presumably listening to what Xu Xin just said, without gazing outside.

Zeng Tao’s weakness should last until the afternoon; now she’s just an ordinary little girl, but Lou Fei’Er and Jin Yue haven’t lost any of their strength.

The two of them are still the main force for venturing out during the day.

Xu Xin informed the two girls of the current situation.

"No wonder you didn’t let us look outside!" Zeng Tao, already regaining her energy, was a bit surprised and eager, "I want to go out and see!"

"Forget it. Wait until you’ve recovered." Xu Xin immediately dismissed the idea.

"Yeah, even if someone goes out, it would be me going out." Knowing the situation, Lou Fei’Er walked to the shadowed side and looked out the window, then exclaimed, "Ah! The jungle has become lush again!"

"What?" Zeng Tao also got up, holding Keke as she ran to the window to look outside, "Really!"

The jungle recovered last night, and the two of them just got up; just now, Xu Xin didn’t allow them to look outside, so they’re only now discovering the change in the jungle.

Strangely enough, the trees in the jungle, under such intense sunlight, didn’t wither as yesterday’s buds did; instead, they grew even more robust.

The colors have even changed from light green to deep green.

"This is why I came to find you," Xu Xin said, "Now that the jungle is lush again, trouble has followed. We can’t directly observe the surroundings from the treehouse anymore."

The canopy is too dense and continuous, completely blocking the view under the crown.

Whatever’s in the bushes now, Xu Xin can no longer see.

Even if there are furry monsters or mutant creatures lurking in the jungle, he won’t know.

So someone needs to patrol all around.

Lou Fei’Er and Jin Yue are good candidates.

Moreover, in the current lush jungle, there’s no need to worry about direct sunlight or accidentally seeing the sunlight because the area beneath the canopy is completely obscured by shadow.

This is actually a relatively easy task.

As for Ma Hongwei, it’s better to let him continue researching the crossbow.

"Got it!" Lou Fei’Er indicated she understood.

Then she ran to the sunny side and extended her hand into the sunlight.

"What are you doing?" Xu Xin was startled.

"I just want to see this sunlight... ah!"

With a cry of pain, Lou Fei’Er quickly withdrew her hand.

Her hand had turned red.

"This sunlight is really intense!" She said incredulously.

"... I’ve already told you," Xu Xin rolled his eyes.

"I’ll try too!"

"Ah!"

Zeng Tao’s reaction was as expected; she rubbed her hand and started whimpering again.

With her loss of power, even her personality had subtly changed.

Xu Xin shook his head: "I told you both not to mess around."

"How would I know how long I could endure the sunlight if I didn’t try it?" Lou Fei’Er continued rubbing her hand, "If an emergency arises, it’s good to have some idea."

What she said is indeed correct.

However...

She just attempted to remain in direct sunlight longer than Li Wenxi did this morning.

Li Wenxi lasted no more than two seconds before withdrawing, while she managed to hold out for at least five or six seconds.

Xu Xin walked up and took her hand.

"What... what are you doing?"

The redness on Lou Fei’Er’s hand was even less than that on Li Wenxi’s at the time.

It seems her body, having undergone mutation, has increased resistance to direct sunlight exposure on the skin.

Xu Xin looked at Zeng Tao, and she understood his meaning, quickly extending her hand: "Look, I got sunburned too."

Although Zeng Tao has lost her power now, her body’s tolerance for temperature hasn’t changed, so her injuries are similar to Lou Fei’Er’s.

Mutant creatures indeed have much stronger resistance to sunlight.
