Starting Off Survival With A Small Treehouse

Chapter 672 Let’s Go and Loot!

"Ah, it worked!" Li Wenxi whispered in surprise, "I actually pried it off!"

Even Xu Xin and the other three were a little shocked.

So easy?

Just... came down?

"Is this considered a success?" Li Wenxi looked at the expressions of the three people around him and asked a little unconfidently.

"It was successful!" Zhao Xiaochuan looked at the empty groove of the platform, "A whole piece was pried out!"

"Of course it worked." Xu Xin nodded and smiled.

"My sister-in-law is still amazing!" Xu Ying squatted down and looked at the crystal stone while wearing sunglasses.

"Hey." Li Wenxi put away her pickaxe embarrassedly, "Why do I feel like I didn't do anything..."

"...Put it away quickly." Xu Xin frowned and looked at the red crystal block protruding from the groove on the ground.

This thing was pried out and completely revealed, making the red light it emitted become even brighter.

And this brighter red light caused the surrounding machine tools to start working harder.

Moreover, it has also begun to affect Xu Xin and others who have not touched the red crystal.

"Being illuminated by this light... feels a little uncomfortable." Li Wenxi covered her head and frowned.

"Yeah... I've never felt this way before..." Zhao Xiaochuan shook his head.

"Hey..." Coco immediately retracted into Xu Xin's cloak.

Xu Xin also felt that her scalp was itching.

Familiar feeling.

It felt like something was about to come out of my scalp.

"Brother, put it away. Just put it in your backpack." Xu Ying kicked it lightly with her foot and said to Xu Xin.

"That's fine." Xu Xin nodded.

He didn't want to touch it with his hands.

Zhao Xiaochuan just clicked his finger and that happened. If he caught this thing, it would probably be a bigger problem.

So, he opened his backpack, used the backpack mask to cover the small piece of red crystal, and then fished it out and put it into his backpack.

The moment it was covered, the sound of mechanical operation in the entire factory immediately decreased and gradually became quiet.

The uncomfortable symptoms that Xu Xin and others felt were relieved and eventually recovered.

"Huh...this is what the monster said, the source of life for alien invaders, right?" Li Wenxi looked at Xu Xin's backpack and said, "I didn't expect that just such a small piece could make us so uncomfortable. Well, if we wait until we see the red crystal as big as the tree house..."

Xu Xin pursed her lips.

Yes, it seems that they can never face the red crystal directly.

They can feel something so small, and such a huge crystal is in front of their eyes...

"I always feel like the genetic medicine can't suppress it. I'm afraid it will mutate instantly..." Xu Ying said helplessly, "It's a bit difficult to handle."

"It's not completely hopeless, right?" Zhao Xiaochuan pointed at the cloaks of the Invisibility on Xu Xin and the others, "Wouldn't it be better to wear equipment? Didn't that monster say that when those alien invaders approached the crystal? , all wear some kind of protective clothing, wouldn’t it be great if we could steal that kind of protective clothing?”

As he said that, he patted his chest very confidently: "Leave it to me to steal things or whatever. My abilities are not limited."

Xu Xin touched her chin.

It seems likely that they do need that kind of thing.

"Let's talk about that kind of thing if we can sneak in first." Xu Ying waved her hand, "Our mission is to destroy the crystal, not take it away. There is no need to get very close."

"That's right..." Zhao Xiaochuan scratched his head.

"However, it is also possible that we will really need it, and we will have to rely on you then." Xu Xin said.

"Ha, leave it to me then!"

At this time, Li Wenxi tugged Xu Xin's arm and whispered: "Should we leave? Um... something's not right here..."

"What's wrong?" Xu Xin whispered.

"Those things produced by machine tools around..." Li Wenxi pointed to the surroundings, "I can see with my ability, they seem to be..."

Before Li Wenxi finished speaking, some strange "clicking" and "clanging" sounds appeared in the originally silent factory.

Then, flat metal objects like UFO flying saucers rose from these machine tools, and then glowed red.

"Zi——Zi——"

They even made a piercing alarm sound!

"嘤! 嘘嘘!" Coco immediately grabbed Xu Xin's arm with her little paws and shouted anxiously.

It means simply, go! dangerous!

With a "click!", the factory door, which was originally open through a gap, closed automatically, making a soul-stirring sound of metal collision.

Xu Xin's thoughts flashed in his mind, and he instantly understood the current situation.

"...The red crystal here has been taken away. This is an alarm! Let's leave quickly!"

Before Xu Xin finished speaking, Xu Ying pulled over three people.

Then a purple-black vortex appeared under the feet of several people, and the four people immediately fell into it and disappeared.

"Zi——Zi——Zi——Zi——"

Countless flying saucer-shaped objects rose from these machine tools, floated into the air, and then began to rotate back and forth in the closed factory.

Flying faster and faster, flying faster and faster!

Then, one of the small flying saucers seemed to have lost control and hit one of the machine tools.

"boom!!!"

The explosion that caused the entire metal factory to explode suddenly erupted with a deafening explosion!

And this explosion affected other flying saucers, triggering a chain of explosions!

"boom!"

"Boom boom boom!!"

"Boom boom boom boom boom!!!"

For a time, the entire closed factory was filled with fire, affecting all locations inside the factory.

Those mechanical machine tools that could still operate under the red light were completely wrapped in fire and were damaged in an instant.

In such a dense explosion in a closed space, it is impossible for any living being to survive.

"Oh my god..." Li Wenxi exclaimed as she looked at the metal factory in the distance where muffled sounds came from inside, causing half a meter of dust to rise over the entire sand. "There... there was an explosion. ?!”

"Hiss—" Zhao Xiaochuan took a breath of cold air, "I... Poof! Bah, bah, bah! Cough, cough, cough..."

The sand and dust raised by the vibration were sucked into his mouth by the cold breath, and coupled with the extreme shock, he almost coughed out tears.

"If we hadn't come out just now, we might have been blown up inside." Xu Xin said in a deep voice.

The factory door closed automatically, and the small UFOs made by the factory's machine tools rose up and exploded. This was probably the "core" of the factory, the means of self-destruction after the crystal they had just obtained was taken away.

From this point of view, the other party's protection methods for this scarlet crystal are really ruthless!

You know, before they came here, it was impossible for humans to come here.

So what are these measures used to prevent?

It was obviously used to defend against one's own people.

It is used to prevent others from trying to steal this crystal in various ways.

So as soon as they pried the crystal out, before they even took it away, the explosion started.

"Boom boom boom boom..."

In the factory, the muffled explosion still did not stop, and a huge amount of sand and dust was raised in the entire surrounding area, causing several people to cover their mouths and noses.

"Ugh..." Coco directly covered her face with her big tail.

"It's so cruel..." Zhao Xiaochuan covered his mouth and nose and sighed in a muffled voice, "This is really going to kill them all!"

"It's better to kill all our own people." Xu Ying also looked at the metal factory that was still vibrating and even started to show a dark red color due to the high internal temperature. "No wonder the monster said that its father guarded the scarlet crystal. Very dead..."

Red crystals are the source of life for alien invaders. These things are completely controlled by the leader of the alien invasion legion, the father of the monster. Seeing one here makes Xu Xin feel strange even though he feels lucky.

Although this red crystal does supply the operation of the entire factory, it is still more than thirty kilometers away from the purple-black light pillar. If such a large scarlet crystal is placed here, wouldn't it be stolen?

This is the source of life.

You know, as long as a fingernail-sized slice of this concentrated red crystal can meet the needs of an individual for a day, it shouldn't be a problem for this walnut-sized crystal to meet the needs of an individual for several months, right?

The monster said that many individuals were cut off from the supply of scarlet crystals because they were disobedient. This was actually one of the reasons for the internal conflicts among the alien invaders. Wouldn't that kind of individual come here to steal crystals?

But now, the facts before him told him why.

This can't be stolen at all.

Not only is it impossible to steal, it's even a deadly trap.

The first is the defensive devices in the factory.

When the red crystal shines from under the metal cover, the surrounding machine tools and laser weapons will be activated to attack the intruders.

If they can escape the attack like Xu Xin and others, they will have to face the next problem, which is that the red crystal is difficult to pry off the platform.

The red crystal embedded on the platform should not be removed by normal means.

Xu Xin and the others were able to get it because Li Wenxi happened to have this ability.

Of course, Li Wenxi has the ability to pry it off, and those individuals among the alien invaders may not also have the ability.

So there is the last line of insurance.

As long as the crystal is taken off that platform, the entire factory will be destroyed by a violent explosion!

This kind of explosion will not only kill the individual who stole the scarlet crystal, but also destroy all the machine tools in the factory, and... I'm afraid it will also cause the scarlet crystal to be shattered in the explosion.

This is called jade and stone burning together.

Even if their leader destroys the scarlet crystal here, he does not want it to fall into the hands of other individuals.

Otherwise, other individuals will escape its control for a period of time and pose a threat to its rule.

It can also be said that it kills two birds with one stone, directly blowing up the rebel who stole the crystal to death in this way!

This is really a high-pressure measure.

No wonder the current alien invaders have internal problems and are so dissatisfied.

Even if you destroy it, you don't want to give other individuals free control. This is really too cruel.

If they hadn't been more skilled, they used Zhao Xiaochuan's ability to evade the weapon scan, used Li Wenxi's ability to pry it off, and used Xu Ying's ability to teleport out of the factory...

Even if there is a problem with one of the steps, they will explain it there.

but……

"Are you interested in other factories?"

Xu Xin looked around and beyond.

This is not just a factory.

This place is full of low-rise factories covering an area of ​​tens of thousands of square meters.

If there was a scarlet crystal in each of these factories...

"You still want to go? Okay!" Li Wenxi said a little excitedly, "As long as it does this every time, just pry it up and run away, right?"

Li Wenxi will not be frightened by this kind of thing.

Xu Xin told them his speculation.

"In other words, our abilities are just enough, that's great!" Zhao Xiaochuan also became excited and looked around, "We have looted this area!"

"Well... there may be some weapons that we can take away in the factory group, and they are indeed worth exploring. But, will this really not attract their attention?" Xu Ying glanced at the direction of the purple-black light beam. , frowned slightly.

The explosion has stopped, and the surrounding area has fallen into silence again, with only the desert breeze floating on the faces of a few people.

Xu Xin took a look at the map in his mind.

At least for now, there are no enemy units nearby.

The other party didn't seem to have any reaction to the explosion.

"It seems like they don't care about this side." Xu Xin said, "Furthermore, even if there is a problem here, I don't think they will think that it is humans who have come all the way here, but that it is their kind. "

In their eyes, humans probably don't have this ability yet.

"So, if we make things big here, is it a good thing..." Xu Ying said to herself, then smiled and patted Xu Xin on the shoulder, "Brother, you are quite smart! "

If they make this matter a big deal, the other party will probably send troops to suppress it.

In this case, the defense of the headquarters will be more relaxed, which is conducive to their infiltration.

Xu Xin glanced at Xu Ying and felt that although she was smiling and looking relaxed, her mood was not very high.

Her state...

"Can you...can you teleport continuously?" Li Wenxi looked at her with some worry. She also saw that Xu Ying was a little depressed.

"Don't worry, teleportation alone will not affect my condition. I have told you so many times." Xu Ying rolled her eyes slightly and said, "This matter is related to the lives of several of us. I still have thoughts and Are you pretending?"

……makes sense.

"Okay, then let's... take action?" Xu Xin looked at the surrounding factories.

"Do it!"

"Let's go loot!"

"Be careful." Xu Xin finally warned, "You have to know that although there are no alien invaders inside our factory, other factories may not, and we may encounter individual alien invaders. .”

"It would be better to have alien invaders." Xu Ying looked at the factory, clasped her fingers, and a sneer appeared at the corner of her mouth, "Just let them taste the trap they have set. I have lived for hundreds of years and have never killed any aliens." Where are the Star Invaders!”

really. If there are individual alien invaders inside, they can escape if they follow this trick, but they may be able to directly blow up the alien invaders inside!

"Then let's take action quickly!" Zhao Xiaochuan couldn't wait even more!

"Ugh!" Even Coco shouted in agreement.

Li Wenxi also showed a somewhat nervous and exciting expression.

The show is about to begin.

"Boom boom boom boom boom!!!!"

A continuous muffled sound of explosions came from inside a factory, the sand continued to shake, and sand and dust rose up again, drowning the four people.

"Oh! It's exciting!" Zhao Xiaochuan felt the tremors on the ground, covered his mouth and nose and shouted, "It's so exciting! This is too easy!"

"Next one." Xu Xin touched the backpack containing two scarlet crystals and looked at another factory.
