Chapter 584: Chapter 401: Sneaking Away

Zeng Tao instinctively felt a sense of closeness, even wanting to nuzzle.

Then she instantly snapped back to reality because of Xu Xin’s words.

She didn’t push away Xu Xin’s hand but her eyes lit up, as if she had grabbed onto a lifeline: ”Are you really going to compensate me? Compensate me with a weapon?”

”Of course it’s true. Blue-grade stone, to me, means nothing.”

Xu Xin smiled slightly and effortlessly took out two blue-grade stones from his backpack.

These things are overflowing on Li Wenxi’s side.

Every time she mines, the by-product is stones.

Blue-grade stones don’t have much use for us explorers, but they’re still blue-grade resources, might be useful in the future.

So, these stones keep piling up more and more.

The decline in the price of blue-grade stones on the world trading platform is actually related to Li Wenxi.

Because her inventory was too large, she felt the treehouse was about to collapse, so she released some blue-grade stones onto the world trading platform.

As they say, scarcity determines value. Releasing so many at once made blue-grade stones no longer rare, and the price naturally dropped.

Because of this, Zeng Tao could buy enough materials at a low price from the world channel to make this weapon.

Ultimately, she had to thank Li Wenxi’s ability for being able to make this weapon.

Zeng Tao held the stones, turning them over and inspecting them, with her eyes growing brighter.

Although she needed an appraisal platform to see the item level, there are subtle differences between blue-grade and green-grade stones.

Having played with blue-grade stones for a long time back then, she could tell them apart.

The two stones in her hand are definitely blue-grade stones!

”Are you really going to do it!” Zeng Tao jumped up from the ground, ”Really do it! No take-backs!”

”Are you kidding? When have I, Yan Haoming, ever exaggerated?” Xu Xin showed a disdainful expression.

This little girl is quite interesting.

”Then let’s make them now! Lou Fei’Er, do you have a weapon and armor manufacturing platform here?”

”What’s the rush?” Xu Xin directly held her down, looking at the movements of the stone statue group outside.

The group of stone statues had entered within fifty meters of the treehouse.

If they take one more step forward, all the treehouse’s automated heavy crossbows will activate.

”Can you even lift a blade right now? How long will it take to recover?” Xu Xin glanced at Zeng Tao and asked.

”At least half a day, I guess. I took some heavy hits this time.” Zeng Tao rubbed her stomach.

She felt like her insides were quite uncomfortable from the hit just now.

Thankfully, her body can automatically heal itself after she loses consciousness.

Then, she unexpectedly glanced at Xu Xin: ”Why does this guy suddenly not seem so annoying? His tone also changed.”

Xu Xin didn’t answer but said, ”Then you should rest.”

”What should we do next?” Lou Fei’Er directly asked Xu Xin without any concealment.

However, Qin Fu already knew the relationship between the two, and since Zeng Tao wasn’t in a good state, nobody bothered.

”Watch and wait.” Xu Xin looked out the window.

Outside the window, a small portion of the stone statues had already been cleared by Zeng Tao.

The stone statues around were much sparser than before.

These statues were slowly advancing step by step towards the treehouse, like a group of beasts lurking in the grass, ready to pounce.

”They’re about to enter the automatic firing range of the heavy crossbows, right?” Qin Fu murmured.

As he said, finally, the stone statues outside the treehouse stepped into the fifty-meter automatic firing range of the green-grade heavy crossbows.

In a neat line, they all stepped in.

And at that very moment, the entire treehouse shook violently!

The sound of machinery echoed from every direction of the treehouse!

All treehouse heavy crossbows immediately activated automatic firing!

Outside the window, countless heavy crossbow bolts, two fingers thick, poured out in all directions!

The weight of the heavy crossbow bolts alone determined their power.

Even a green-grade treehouse heavy crossbow is not to be underestimated.

After all, these aren’t weapons held by survivors, but external weapons of the treehouse!

The heavy weapon!

The mutant stone statues knew these heavy crossbow bolts were hard to dodge, most chose to evade.

But in that instant, the torrent of heavy crossbow bolts was too much!

The sheer number of stone statues made the treehouse heavy crossbows fire all the bolts consecutively!

From all around the treehouse, the continuous sound of shattering stone echoed.

Most stone statues around were hit directly!

The sound of bolts shattering and breaking mixed with the somewhat pitiful yet angry sounds of the mutant stone statues.

At this time, all four people in the treehouse were focused on the situation around them.

Though they were low-grade heavy crossbow bolts, the arrows were still made of stone.

Boosted by the heavy crossbow and leveraging their own weight, this wave of heavy crossbow bolts nearly flipped over all mutant stone statues around!

Only a few of the mutant stone statues were agile enough to dodge.

As for the statues that were hit, their impacted parts cracked open.

Those hit just once were fine, but those struck multiple times were missing bits, and some were shattered halfway by the sheer force of the heavy crossbows!

Indeed, the power of the heavy crossbows is not to be underestimated.

For ordinary survivors, even green-grade heavy crossbows are far stronger weapons than their own abilities!

Xu Xin suddenly thought of Ma Hongwei.
