Starting Off Survival With A Small Treehouse

Chapter 519: Chapter 356: Pterosaur Statue Mutation, Grand Formation Transmission Activated!

”They’ve connected! Those two pillars of light are connected!”

”Oh shit, I thought I was seeing things, but it’s real!”

”This is incredible!”

”Is this... the two Teleportation Arrays in Area 188 connecting?!”

”Ah! I get it now, the two connected Teleportation Arrays can teleport across a thousand miles!!”

”Just from the name, I could tell they could teleport between Arrays, but I didn’t expect the scene to be so spectacular!”

”Wait a minute, does that mean areas with a Teleportation Array can connect to the one in Area 188 and teleport there?! Could they go and join Area 188?!”

”Really?”

”It should only work within the area, right? Cross-regional... that’s too outrageous, isn’t it?”

”Even if it’s possible, those who can activate a Teleportation Array must be from a strong area. Why would they go to join Area 188? That’s just overthinking.”

”You’re right...”

”According to inside info, it can only teleport within the area. Don’t think about cross-regional teleportation; it’s impossible.”

”Alright.”

”Other areas, step up your game. Area 188 has already connected their Teleportation Arrays and started using them, why haven’t you activated any yet...”

”What are you from Area 148 talking about? You only have about forty people left in your area, and yet you dare to talk to us like that?”

”It’s because we only have a few dozen people left that we’re relying on you! If you don’t activate your Teleportation Arrays, who will? Hurry up and get through this harsh winter!”

”Area 1 should be soon, right? After all, besides Area 188, they’ve been on the leaderboards the most.”

”Even so, it’s just two people; Area 188 has five...”

At this moment, Xu Xin and the others were also wide-eyed, looking up at the purple-black archway in the sky.

This is too eye-catching!

Just then, changes began to occur beneath the pillar of light!

Originally, only a purple-black beam shot from the triangular pattern straight into the sky, but now, the three circular patterns around the triangle glowed again with purple-black light, rapidly spreading these purple-black lines outward!

Similar to when the snowy mountains hadn’t yet sunk, the lines spread out rapidly like a spider web. In just a few seconds, the entire ground of the giant pit was once again covered in purple-black lines.

They looked into the giant pit; its bottom was suffused with a purple-black glow due to the dense lines.

Moreover, these purple lines weren’t fixed onto the ground; instead, they slowly rotated around the central triangular pattern of the pit.

Xu Xin then realized that the triangular pattern in the center of the pit was also rotating, and its motion was driving the entire pit’s lines to rotate!

This feeling was so similar to a purple-black vortex!

Looking at it, it was as if the giant pit was one colossal teleportation gate!

”So breathtaking...” Li Wenxi gazed in awe at the changes before her, ”Is this entire pit a teleportation gate? If we jump down, can we teleport?”

Ji Chaoyang stroked his chin and said, ”Since it’s a Teleportation Array, it means it can teleport many objects at once. Perhaps, someone needs to activate the teleportation within the light beam, and the Teleportation Array can then send all the survivors in the pit over.”

”Ying! Yingying!” Keke suddenly cried out, pointing its little paw toward the center of the pit.

Xu Xin followed where Keke pointed, ”What’s wrong...”

Then his pupils contracted, ”The winged dragons are moving!”

At this moment, the purple-black pillar of light suddenly disturbed, and Lou Fei’Er suddenly burst out from it at an incredible speed!

Even before emerging, she had decided on her path, so she didn’t even look at the surrounding stone statues. Swift as lightning, she dashed towards Xu Xin and the others!

The distance from the center of the pit to the edge was only a hundred meters.

Lou Fei’Er’s speed had long surpassed the human limit, so it took her just four or five seconds to reach the edge of the pit.

Facing the five-meter-high pit wall, she didn’t use a grappling hook, instead she accelerated, pushed off with her feet, and using hands and feet, scaled it like a cat climbing a wall.

”So scary!” she exclaimed as she leaped and landed on Li Wenxi.

”Ying!” Keke jumped from Li Wenxi’s arms in advance, landing on Xu Xin’s shoulder.

”Wow!” Li Wenxi, who was still dazzled by the activated array, was startled by Lou Fei’Er’s speed and, caught off guard, fell over with her.

”Ah, are you alright?” Lou Fei’Er hurriedly got up and pulled Li Wenxi to her feet.

”You run really fast...” Li Wenxi rubbed her sore backside, saying, ”Even faster than Bolt.”

”Not really...”

”Alright, enough fooling around.” Qi Xuefei intervened, stopping their antics, as she looked solemnly at the stone statues, ”We’re really in serious trouble this time!”

Upon hearing this, the two immediately turned to look into the pit, their eyes trembling.

The two originally crouched winged dragons had now both turned their bodies!

Their movements had changed too.

With strong forelimbs, connected to their wings, supporting them on the ground, their massive bodies leaned forward, and their enormous heads extended in their direction.

Simultaneously, they both let out an incredibly piercing screech!

Heavens! The winged dragons actually screeched!

So that’s what a winged dragon’s call is like!

”Ying...” Keke clung onto Xu Xin’s back, peeking its little head towards the winged dragon statues.

”They’re going to fly!” Ji Chaoyang’s face full of seriousness, instantly fixed his purple-grade crossbow, loaded with bolts, aiming at the winged dragon statue.

”Damn it!” Xu Xin gritted his teeth.

```

If this pterodactyl were to come alive, he couldn’t guarantee the safety of the others!

Without turning his head, he said to Li Wenxi and Qi Xuefei behind him, ”You two, stay close to me! In moments of danger, I’ll take you into the hand ring!”

Only inside the hand ring would they be safe!

The two women didn’t hesitate and immediately moved closer to him.

”Is... is it my fault? Did I move too quickly and bring it back to life?” Lou Fei’Er’s face turned pale once again.

”No, it’s not you. Right after the array connected, these two pterodactyl statues started moving!” Xu Xin said solemnly, ”If you’re scared, I’ll take you into the hand ring too!”

”I...” Lou Fei’Er was tempted.

Xu Xin watched the pterodactyl statue without blinking.

He recognized this posture of the pterodactyl.

Just as Ji Chaoyang had said, it’s about to take off!

This is the action pterodactyls use when they’re about to launch into flight!

Indeed, as the largest flying creatures from ancient times, pterodactyls could take off from flat ground!

The biggest flying animals on Earth now are the vultures Xu Xin encountered halfway up the snowy mountain.

Vultures, the largest flying birds today, cannot take off directly from the ground because their wings can’t lift their weight.

So, they need to climb to a high place and use altitude and air currents to take off and start gliding in the air.

Pterodactyls, which lived millions or even over a hundred million years ago, are much larger than vultures, yet such massive creatures don’t need the same cumbersome process to fly.

The sky rulers of ancient times had their own unique way of flying.

Launch takeoff!

Using their powerful front limbs connected to their wings, they could launch off the ground!

This launching provides enough speed and height for them to fly in the air and soar in the skies!

Now, these two pterodactyl statues were in a similar, about-to-launch posture!

Silver King and Mimi instinctively took two steps back.

Like Lou Fei’Er, they were clearly a bit afraid of the two pterodactyl statues.

They were partially subdued by the bloodline suppression of high-level mutant creatures.

Even when facing giant anacondas, they hadn’t been afraid, yet now they’re panicked by pterodactyl statues.

The bloodline suppression effect of blood pattern mutations was unexpectedly significant!

But they hadn’t completely lost their fighting spirit.

Though they stepped back a few steps, Silver King still bared its teeth and growled, while Mimi arched its back and fluffed up, emitting a defiant hiss. Both beasts resisted the fear brought by the bloodline suppression!

After all, they’ve already seen giant anacondas that are countless times larger than the pterodactyls, making the fear of high-level mutant creatures much less in comparison.

Everyone’s nerves were tightened.

Yet, after drawing the attention of all present, both human and beast, the two pterodactyl statues became still once again.

The statues didn’t move a muscle, once again falling silent.

This left the people present a bit perplexed.

”How come... it’s not moving again?” Xu Xin muttered to himself.

”No way... is it just trying to scare us? It yelled once and then stopped moving?” Lou Fei’Er was somewhat speechless but also felt a sense of relief.

”No! Something’s up!” Ji Chaoyang’s pupils contracted.

In the pit, a mutation occurred!

All the statues of mid-level mutant creatures in the pit started moving!

They stood up, collectively and slowly turned, facing Xu Xin and the others.

Those patches of red eyes seemed ready to devour everyone!

Goodness, the pterodactyl statues stopped, but the mid-level mutant creature statues started moving!

Could it be due to the influence of the pterodactyl’s earlier call?

These statues didn’t rush over like the low-level mutant statue group in a frenzy.

They originally formed a very scattered circle, but now, they began to gather in a disciplined manner, almost like an army.

They seemed to want to launch an attack on Xu Xin and the others from their gathering position!

Organized and disciplined!

They had seen such a scene before!

This time, the combat power of mid-level mutant creature statues might be a level above the previous mutant groups!

However, this time, it’s not just the five of them who could fight against these gargoyles!

Where’s Wen Guixin and the others? Why haven’t they come yet?

As if responding to Xu Xi’s call, at that moment, the purple-black patterns on the ground of the giant pit suddenly radiated brightly!

The entire bottom of the pit lit up!

The strong light made them instinctively squint and turn their heads to avoid the dazzling glare.

They’re here!
