Starting Off Survival With A Small Treehouse

Chapter 522: After modification: Chapter 358 Face-To-Face Clever Stealth Transmission!_2

Lou Fei’Er widened her eyes: ”Your toxin seems to have many transmission pathways!”

Qi Xuefei, on the other hand, stroked her smooth chin: ”Maybe I can come up with some antidotes for it...”

”Alright everyone,” Xu Xin immediately interrupted the small talk, ”Now is not the time for idle chatter. We need to come up with a solution to our current problem.”

In the giant pit, the winged dragon stone statue kept its posture as if it was about to flap its wings and fly, giving the impression that if activated again, it might come to life and launch an attack on the surrounding people.

For some unknown reason, the winged dragon stone statue and the group of intermediate mutant stone statues had all restrained themselves as if someone was controlling them, forcing them not to attack Xu Xin’s group.

...Was it Chang Yin and Xue Lan? Could it be those two?

Xu Xin increasingly felt that these statues were under the control of Chang Yin and Xue Lan.

Especially after seeing Xiaohong, those low-level mutant stone statues started to rampage. After the treasure chest monster swallowed Xiaohong, the statues started to restrain themselves again.

As for where they are now...

Xu Xin looked at the iron door that he and Ji Chaoyang had excavated.

Descending from there might help unravel some of the mysteries.

But for now, the most important thing is to deal with the Transmission Array.

Wang Lei clenched his fist: ”Should we all go in together and destroy these statues?”

Ji Chaoyang slightly shook his head: ”Nearly a hundred statues with strength equivalent to intermediate mutants, they’re too difficult to deal with, especially with the winged dragon statue likely possessing advanced mutant strength. Destroying them all won’t be easy.”

”Hmm, controlling this winged dragon statue is quite difficult,” Wen Guixin also turned to look at the giant pit and said, ”The time and speed of my mental toxin control over a creature is related to its size. The infiltration speed of the toxin into this winged dragon statue is too slow, and its size is too large, requiring a lot of toxin for control, which is basically impossible. But perhaps it could work on the other statues.”

Lou Fei’Er took a small step back, feeling a bit of fear: ”Do we have to fight that winged dragon stone statue?”

Zhao Xiaochuan also shrank his neck slightly: ”Fighting such a huge creature, I don’t seem very skilled at it... Also, I tried shooting an arrow at the chest of those intermediate mutant stone statues, but it didn’t work. Their weakness doesn’t seem to be in the chest area.”

Qi Xuefei and Li Wenxi exchanged glances; they didn’t have much combat power and couldn’t contribute.

Both of them, facing these creatures with strength above intermediate mutants, could basically only attack from a distance using explosive crossbow bolts.

”Hey, we’re so many, what’s there to be afraid of!” Wang Lei seemed indifferent, ”It’s the first time I’m gathering with so many people! We’ll definitely smash these monster statues!”

”By the way, where are Qin Yunlong and Qin Yunhu?” Qi Xuefei asked.

”Those two, they hadn’t arrived when you established the connection array, so we came over to help first,” Wen Guixin explained, ”But they have arrived now, right beside the array, and I told them to wait a bit.”

Xu Xin thought for a while.

He looked at his hand ring and then glanced at Zhao Xiaochuan, his eyes slowly brightening.

He seemed to have found a way!

”What are you thinking, Brother Xin?” Zhao Xiaochuan jokingly stepped back two steps, ”Why are you staring at me, isn’t Sister Wenxi enough for you?”

Li Wenxi, feeling thirsty, had just taken out a bottle of water from her backpack to take a sip, and upon hearing this, she sprayed it out: ”Cough cough... What are you talking about!”

The others around laughed aloud, and Xu Xin also shook his head helplessly.

Keke cocked her head on Xu Xin’s shoulder, then turned her little head to look at the iron door on the ground and blinked, ”Ying...?”

”So, have you thought of a method?” Ji Chaoyang asked.

Xu Xin raised the hand ring on his right hand: ”Rely on this, and Zhao Xiaochuan.”

Ji Chaoyang slightly raised his eyebrows and then instantly understood Xu Xin’s idea, nodding with a relaxed smile: ”Seems it could work.”

”What? What could work?” Zhao Xiaochuan was puzzled, ”Rely on me? What’s with the hand ring?”

”Ah! I understand!” Having entered the hand ring, Li Wenxi quickly got Xu Xin’s meaning, clapped her hands, and said excitedly, ”This way, even if we don’t destroy these statues, it won’t affect our future interactions!”

Seeing the others puzzled, Xu Xin immediately explained the function of the hand ring and told them his plan.

The plan was for Xu Xin to enter the hand ring, have Zhao Xiaochuan wear it, activate the ability, and sneak into the beam of light without alerting the statues, transmitting to their side!

He had just experienced Zhao Xiaochuan’s ability.

While the ability was active, he truly had no presence!

Xu Xin still had one coordinate in his backpack. Once he went over, he could directly place the coordinate next to the tree house closest to the Transmission Array, activate the coordinate, and establish a link between the two sides through the coordinate!

Once linked, they could use the coordinate for transmission and interaction.

There would be no need to clear the statue group around the array now; they were too powerful and could be considered longer term.

This method was only possible with Xu Xin and Zhao Xiaochuan cooperating and using this newly acquired hand ring’s function!

”Makes sense!” Zhao Xiaochuan suddenly realized, looking at the hand ring on Xu Xin’s wrist, ”This hand ring has such powerful capabilities!”

”I think it’s a good idea,” Wen Guixin was very supportive, ”The closest to the Transmission Array is my tree house so you can place the coordinate right next to it. Thinking like this, I’ll be your neighbor soon!”

The others had no objections and all thought the approach was very good.

Eventually, they decided there was no need to mobilize everyone, and Zhao Xiaochuan would just take Xu Xin back, while the others would wait at Xu Xin’s tree house.

”I’m not going back; I just came here,” Wen Guixin waved her hand.

Although they would be setting the coordinate at her tree house, she didn’t want to go back.

She wanted to see Xu Xin and Ji Chaoyang’s purple-grade tree house.

After all, her group of five all had blue-grade tree houses, and she hadn’t seen a purple-grade tree house before so she was quite envious.

Also, her tree house was already very close to the Transmission Array, and they could see it upon teleporting; moreover, Zhao Xiaochuan had been there before, and she didn’t need to guide them.

Xu Xin put Mimi Silver King and the others into the hand ring and then handed it over to Zhao Xiaochuan.

”Will it really work?” Li Wenxi was a bit worried, ”Won’t it be noticed?”

”Don’t worry, Sister Wenxi!” Zhao Xiaochuan, holding the hand ring with great confidence, patted his chest, ”I walked out like this myself, directly through the statues, didn’t they notice anything? I guarantee to safely deliver Brother Xin!”

”Then good luck, we’ll wait for your news at Xu Xin’s tree house,” Wen Guixin looked at the tree house visible in the distance, eager.

Xu Xin nodded, immediately reached out to touch the hand ring, and activated its storage ability.

Instantly, he disappeared from his spot, stored into the space within the hand ring.

”Wow, he really disappeared!” Wen Guixin’s eyes widened, ”This is even more magical than the Transmission Array.”

”Yingying?!” Unable to be stored inside the hand ring, Keke fell directly from Xu Xin’s shoulder and onto the ground, then quickly stood back up, somewhat confused.

Li Wenxi picked her up: ”Alright, Keke, come home with us, Xu Xin will be back soon.”

”Ying...” Keke felt a bit dejected and buried her little head in Li Wenxi’s embrace.
