Starting Off Survival With A Small Treehouse

Chapter 554: Chapter 375 Dust Settles: Regional Rankings Update_2

A troublesome and demeaning situation.

So he directly took action.

Chose the safest, most protective solution for everyone.

Directly showcasing strength, driving back the wolf pack, blasting the hairy monster, then dispersing the entire wolf pack!

Settling everything in front of them, no explanation was needed.

Besides, these people had never truly seen the explorers in action before.

It’s good to let them witness it.

Conquering them with strength on the spot is far more reliable than relying on fame.

Letting them experience the power of the explorers firsthand, making them aware that someone can effortlessly resolve their life-threatening crises, will give them a greater sense of belonging.

Moreover, having gone through this, they will share and even boast about the explorers’ strength on the regional channel, attracting more survivors willing to join.

”No, Master Xu Xin, let me help you deal with these dozen wolves!”

At this point, the man who was prepared to break through the encirclement came up, holding a spear, his eyes focused as he looked at Xu Xin, then glanced at the ten or so snow wolves still confronting them.

Someone beside him quickly tugged at his clothes.

”Just forget it...” they said softly, ”In front of the master, you still want to help fight? The master can just take something out, and the wolf pack will run away!”

”But...”

Xu Xin glanced at him, about to say something when suddenly, his brows furrowed.

On the map in his mind, the location northward where Ji Chaoyang went, the over two hundred red dots representing the wolf pack...

Suddenly vanished in an instant!

Indeed, vanished!

Could it be...

His gaze sharpened.

”Hold on.” He gestured to the man and then immediately sent a voice request to Ji Chaoyang.

But the other side was slow to connect.

This made Xu Xin’s face darker and darker.

Ji Chaoyang, those wolf packs, and the survivors there, wouldn’t be...

Because that blood-patterned Transmission Array activated, sent somewhere unknown?

Then, the call connected.

Xu Xin sighed in relief.

Connecting was good.

”Hello? What’s the situation over there?” he directly asked.

”...Everyone is rescued, but...” Ji Chaoyang’s voice came through.

His voice was low and heavy: ”The large array under the snow you mentioned was activated, yet nothing was transported. However, those wolf packs and the snow on the ground suddenly disappeared, probably... transported elsewhere.”

Xu Xin’s eyes slightly twitched: ”Even the snow on the ground is gone?”

Indeed, it was transported away.

This blood-patterned Teleportation Array clearly intends to transport this group of survivors elsewhere!

”By the way...”

Ji Chaoyang wanted to say something more when suddenly, a sharp and piercing sound echoed from afar.

”Eek!” Keke immediately turned to look in that direction.

The sound they previously heard was much like a whistle.

The only difference now is a mix of pain and anger in it never before present.

If before it sounded like a whistle, now it’s more like a sharp animal call!

Turns out this sound wasn’t a whistle, but a call!

The sound came from a few kilometers away.

In that direction...

It’s Lou Fei’Er’s direction!

Did she succeed?

”Awoo——”

”Awoo——”

After the sharp call ended, the dozen or so mutant snow wolves beside Xu Xin all howled together.

The close-by, long-lasting wolf howls scared the surrounding survivors, causing some to instinctively hide behind Xu Xin.

”Eek?” Keke, however, wasn’t frightened, instead looking toward the direction the sharp sound came from.

However, after the howl ended, these snow wolves no longer glanced at them.

They all dashed in the direction of the sharp sound!

Meanwhile, on the map, those red dots scattered because of light fear, started congregating toward the sound!

What’s going on?

What did Lou Fei’Er do?

”Quickly, go to my treehouse, someone will protect you there!”

Xu Xin ignored them, lightly stepped on the power skateboard, and sped off, following the wolf pack.

The nine could only watch him go.

Once Xu Xin was completely out of sight, these people buzzed with excitement again.

”It really is Master Xu Xin! It’s really Master Xu Xin!”

”Oh my! Master Xu Xin is really this handsome! Is he really this type?”

”So strong, so strong! Really too strong!”

”I’m such a fool, doubting Master Xu Xin...”

”Master Xu Xin told us to go to his treehouse over there, let’s hurry over!”

The man wielding a spear, seeing the wolves were completely gone, put away his spear and said to everyone.

This time, no one objected him.

”Good!”

”Let’s go!”

”I’m going to admire Master Xu Xin’s treehouse!”

”Is that vaguely green dome over there Master Xu Xin’s treehouse?”

”Seems it is... Whoa, it’s so big? Visible from this far away?!”

...

”What were you going to say just now?” Xu Xin, following the wolf pack, asked Ji Chaoyang.

Their voice call was still ongoing.

”It’s nothing now, just, the transmission patterns on the ground are still there, but after that sharp cry, the patterns vanished too.” Ji Chaoyang frowned, ”Let’s not talk about it, prioritize protecting the survivors first, and later meet at your treehouse.”

”Okay.”

Ending the call, Xu Xin followed the wolf pack at maximum skateboard speed.

However, the wolf pack is much faster than the power skateboard, so he can only watch as the red dots on the map reach the destination and vanish without a trace.

When he finally arrived, he only saw Lou Fei’Er lying motionless on the snow.

Xu Xin immediately skated to her side, squatting down, seeing that blood patterns had already crawled up her face.

”Is this... an outbreak?”

Xu Xin’s pupils slightly trembled upon looking.

She was unharmed physically, but had entered outbreak mode, and was unconscious...

This state seems familiar...

Could she have...

She died once?

Like... Ma Hongwei?

Too heavily injured that she couldn’t wake up after resurrection?

What on earth happened here?

Xu Xin looked around; apart from the white snow in the forest, there wasn’t even a spot of blood on the snow surface.

...Better to question her when she wakes up.

Although it feels like being a bad boss, but...

Weakness lasts twenty-four hours, and she still has to welcome people from District 187 tomorrow.

Yes... let Qi Xuefei check her when we get back.

Don’t know, maybe she could help her wake up quickly, query about here’s situation, and then recover well, shortening the weakness period.

He stored the unconscious Lou Fei’Er in his bracelet, with the map appearing in his mind.

Around, there’s no more danger.

All the red dots disappeared.

Including all within the danger zone, vanished.

This crisis, ended.

...Back home.

Now, many survivors have arrived.

Time to assign positions to these survivors.

The skateboard zoomed out with a whir.

On his way back, a mysterious voice suddenly rang in his ear.

This time, the content made his eyes shine.
