Starting Off Survival With A Small Treehouse

Chapter 530: Chapter 362: Not an Ordinary Egg!

When he woke up in the morning, Xu Xin looked at Li Wenxi’s face, who was still asleep right in front of him, and widened his eyes.

He reached out his hand and pinched the sleeping face of Li Wenxi, who had somehow snuggled into his arms, with his fingers exerting slight pressure.

”Mm... huh? Ouch!” Li Wenxi immediately grabbed Xu Xin’s hand, frowned, and slowly opened his eyes.

”When did you come over?” Xu Xin sat up, somewhat speechless.

What was going on, he didn’t notice anything at all?

Although it was Li Wenxi, but had his vigilance gotten this weak?

He didn’t even feel someone climbing into his bed?

Or perhaps...

Xu Xin glanced at the little guy who was already awake, lying at the bedside, blinking and looking at him.

Could it be because of Keke...

”Mm...” Li Wenxi sat up from the bed, rubbing her eyes.

The quilt slid off her body.

Her upper body was bare, making the corners of Xu Xin’s eyes twitch slightly.

Not liking to wear sleepwear, well, it’s a good habit.

”Around twelve o’clock, I think?” She muttered, rubbing her eyes, ”I can’t sleep alone at all, so I came to find you.”

”Twelve o’clock, huh...”

At that time, he had probably only been asleep for an hour, so he shouldn’t have entered deep sleep?

”I was afraid of waking you too, so I was gentle, but you slept like the dead, didn’t wake even when I snuggled into your arms.” Li Wenxi’s eyes gradually became clear.

...It seems it’s because of Keke.

In normal times, he would never sleep so soundly.

However, there’s nothing to worry about.

If there were any real danger, even if he didn’t notice, Keke would definitely wake up before him and alert him.

Not much difference.

Instead, under Keke’s influence, last night’s sleep made him feel filled with energy, really invigorated.

He looked at Li Wenxi.

So early in the morning, her posture...

Following Xu Xin’s gaze, Li Wenxi looked down at her body, her face turned red and she yanked the quilt back over herself.

Then it was yanked away again by Xu Xin.

”Hey? What do you... what do you want to do...! It’s so early... Keke! Keke is still here!”

Xu Xin immediately carried Keke outside and closed the door.

”Ying? Yingying?” Keke stood at the door, looking at the already closed bedroom door, with a bear face full of bewilderment.

...

Li Wenxi went to take a bath, while Xu Xin stood by the window of the bedroom, looking outside.

It was a little past six in the morning, and it was still dark.

Last night, it got dark very early, he remembered, before four o’clock, it was already dark.

It seems that today, the time for dawn will probably be delayed as well.

As the winter continues, the nights are getting longer and longer.

He seems to have somewhat understood what the mysterious voice meant when it said, ”Quickly make this harsh winter end, or something terrifying will happen.”

It can be imagined, if this winter continues, what kind of situation will arise.

The days become shorter, the nights longer, the snow on the ground gets thicker, the temperature keeps dropping, and eventually, the world falls into polar night, with most of the treehouses completely buried in snow.

This doesn’t even account for the possibility of mutated snow creatures, nor the return of marauders.

This really is terrifying!

However, fortunately, in their 188 district, there’s no worry about the snow layer.

The current temperature in 188 district can already maintain above 0 degrees all day and will not snow again.

The snow outside the window has already shown signs of slight melting.

I’m afraid, when the sun comes out, the three-meter-thick snow layer in the forest will start to melt rapidly!

It probably won’t take a few days for all the snow around to melt away.

Survivors wanting to come to their 188 district need to act before the snow completely melts.

Otherwise, once the snow layer supporting the boards completely melts, their movement speed without mounts will drop significantly.

At this time, Xu Xin’s ears again heard the hint of [Random Amplification].

[Detected treehouse decoration level above 500, obtained today’s random amplification: Luck Amplification, effect lasts for one day. Meanwhile, you can choose a second amplification from the historical amplifications.]

...?

Whoa!

He immediately widened his eyes.

Luck?!

Luck amplification?

This kind of amplification exists?

He immediately opened the random amplification page to check the description of the Luck Amplification.

[Luck Amplification: Greatly increases the probability of acquiring high-level resources, as well as various success rates.]

Alright, it was somewhat different from the luck he imagined.

It’s not the protagonist kind of luck where you find treasure chests when you go out and top-notch skills with ringed grandpas falling off cliffs, but simply luck.

Slightly similar to the koi he had consumed before.

The only difference being the word ”greatly!”

This makes him a bit itchy.

If he had known about this amplification earlier, the mutant creature corpses obtained during the beast tide should have been left for today to decompose and cut up.

That way, surely more purple-grade materials could be gained.

Stepping out of the bedroom, the sound of water continued from the adjacent bathroom.

He went to the still-burning fireplace.

Though the temperature has increased, it is still between 0-10°C, which is quite cold, so the fireplace needs to stay on.
