Starting Off Survival With A Small Treehouse

Chapter 339: Chapter 275 Contract - Return to the Treehouse

”...I... I lost...” He slowly lifted his head to look at Xu Xin, his mouth producing intermittent words.

Regained consciousness?

Xu Xin’s eyes lit up: ”When did you regain consciousness?”

However, Ma Hongwei did not speak again but closed his eyes, his arms supporting his body weakened, and he collapsed directly onto the ground.

Dozens of scratches, dozens of life force absorptions, for him, his body has reached the limit.

At this moment, the blood markings on Ma Hongwei’s face have not faded, which means he is still in a state of eruption.

However, the originally bright red blood markings have dimmed, although the eruption state lasts for an hour, he has already exhausted his strength and can’t unleash his current power.

”He just fainted directly, your weapon is really something else.” Lou Fei’Er, having a shadow over the long halberd that had slashed across her throat, dared not get close to Xu Xin and looked from afar at Ma Hongwei on the ground.

Xu Xin withdrew the halberd and squatted in front of Ma Hongwei, then took out a [Mutant Beast Contract] from his backpack.

”Is this the contract?” Seeing Xu Xin put away the halberd, Lou Fei’Er walked over, curiously observing the card in his hand, ”The text on it is so strange.”

This text might possibly belong to the Blood Pattern Race.

Xu Xin crushed the contract in his hand, and the fragments turned into specks of light, merging into Ma Hongwei’s body.

This time, it was exceptionally smooth, much smoother than any prior time.

Just as the light was absorbed, a notification sounded in Xu Xin’s ear.

[Contract Mutant Human, Points Earned: 0.]

Success instantaneously. It seems Ma Hongwei has truly surrendered from the heart.

Not bad.

”Is this all over?” Lou Fei’Er seemed a bit disappointed; she thought she might witness some grand scenes, but it turned out to be similar to contracts she had used before.

Except those contracts, such as the [Treehouse Renovation Contract] from the Silver Treasure Box, or the [Mutant Human Maker Contract] she acquired from the dungeon, after being crushed, the fragments were integrated into her body and joined with her contract. Whereas, this [Mutant Beast Contract] was integrated into the body of the opposite party.

”So lacking in ceremony? Aren’t you... what are you doing!” Lou Fei’Er looked at Xu Xin, widened her eyes instantly, and leapt several meters back.

Xu Xin was rotating a bracelet on his left hand. He glanced at Lou Fei’Er, who was watching him vigilantly, and extended his left hand towards Ma Hongwei.

His left hand touched Ma Hongwei, and Ma Hongwei was immediately absorbed into the bracelet.

Lou Fei’Er breathed a sigh of relief; she was very sensitive to that bracelet.

Xu Xin then stood up and walked to the treehouse that was left with only a trunk.

He examined the trunk, then took out a Blue-Level Steel Shovel borrowed from Li Wenxi and threw it to Lou Fei’Er: ”You dig.”

He would let others do the work, never himself.

A Green-Level treehouse takes tens of seconds to dig; this Blue-Level treehouse is likely to take dozens of times longer.

”I... alright.” Lou Fei’Er could not refuse, reluctantly compelled to do the laborious work.

The Blue-Level treehouse was indeed more resistant to excavation than the Green-Level treehouse, she dug for nearly ten minutes before finally toppling the remaining trunk.

”Boom!”

The trunk fell to the ground, and Ma Hongwei’s treehouse truly became history.

Xu Xin took the seed from the tree pit.

It’s identical to the previously excavated seeds, neither enlarged nor color graded, just an ordinary [Parasitic Treehouse Seed].

However, the description also stated that the form of the treehouse grown from the seed has nothing to do with soil fertility, only depending on the original form of the treehouse before excavation, so this seed can produce a Blue-Level parasitic treehouse.

But this point cannot be discerned merely from the seed; even someone with discernment abilities like Xu Xin couldn’t tell.

If mixed among a pile of low-level treehouse seeds, he wouldn’t be able to find which one is the high-level treehouse seed.

Sort of like a blind box.

Wondering if anyone will sell treehouse seeds in the future.

Could this be traded on the exchange platform?

”Alright, let’s go now.” Xu Xin walked to the Silver King, climbed onto the wolf.

Everything was already handled; it’s time to return.

”Okay.” Lou Fei’Er also climbed onto the wolf’s back.

Just as they were about to depart, Mimi suddenly let out a somewhat dispirited cry.

It didn’t want to continue running such a long distance.

”Well, you insisted on coming out.” Xu Xin shook his head helplessly, ”How about I put you in the bracelet and let you out when we get home?”

Mimi raised its head slightly, seeming somewhat tempted.

”No, Mimi, you’ll go crazy! It’s super scary inside!” As a fellow Contractor, Lou Fei’Er immediately tried to stop Xu Xin’s devilish act, persuading Mimi.

Afu also let out a piercing cry, trying to prevent Mimi.

”It’s worth a try, after all, it’s just a matter of minutes.” Xu Xin proposed.

Mimi had been imprisoned in the dungeons for decades, its tolerance for such environments should not be low.

If Mimi also develops a fear of the bracelet, then the bracelet can only be used as a punishment.

Finally, Mimi decided to be lazy, unwilling to undertake the long journey, and was absorbed into Xu Xin’s bracelet.

”It’ll definitely regret it!” Lou Fei’Er couldn’t persuade and gritted her teeth, ”You’re the devil!”
