Starting Off Survival With A Small Treehouse

Chapter 883: Chapter 521: Contract with Shi Wanyun

At this moment, to be able to think of using a contract method to make Xu Xin trust her within minutes was already quite good.

Not everyone is as naturally theatrical as Lou Fei’Er, the extraordinarily talented actress.

Jin Yue was also startled by Lou Fei’Er’s idea at this time, as she looked at her with a hint of astonishment.

Only Zeng Tao was still utterly bewildered, not knowing what to say; all he could do was continue to restrain Shi Wanyun, preventing her from moving.

”... Can you go easy?” Shi Wanyun felt like her wrist was about to break, and spoke softly to Zeng Tao behind her out of necessity.

”Huh? Oh, oh...” Zeng Tao slightly relaxed the strength in his hand.

Xu Xin was no longer hesitating.

No matter if Shi Wanyun would be controlled or not, this step had to be carried out.

If she really had no issues, Xu Xin, who currently possessed a potion that allowed mutated bloodlines to become personal power, could just give her a dose then.

He pulled out a mutation pill: ”Open your mouth.”

Shi Wanyun revealed a slightly embarrassed expression but still opened her mouth slightly, allowing Xu Xin to insert the pill into it. She swallowed it in front of everyone.

”You guys, pay attention. Shi Wanyun, you may enter explosion mode now.” Xu Xin looked at Shi Wanyun and said.

She must enter explosion mode once to truly possess bloodline mutation and then be able to contract.

Right now is crucial.

Around, several people also strained their nerves, and Zeng Tao even strengthened his grip.

”I won’t resist.” Shi Wanyun frowned slightly due to the pain in her wrist, and then, without warning, two red marks crept up her face, and her pupils began to turn red.

Xu Xin directly took out the contract and crushed it before her: ”Don’t resist, otherwise the contract won’t succeed, and I’ll have no choice but to kill you.”

”... I said, I won’t resist.”

Shi Wanyun allowed the contract fragments to merge into her body. Then Xu Xin heard a voice.

[Contracting mutated human. Points system error, unable to acquire points.]

This voice was likely from the chip in his mind, a mechanical sound.

The contract succeeded?

That easy...

But what does points system error mean?

Does Shi Wanyun really have a situation?

Wait...

Points Mall, it should be the thing prepared by that mysterious voice, right? Since that mysterious voice flipped the table with them, now...

Xu Xin immediately swiped the watch, but...

He couldn’t find the Points Mall option anymore.

... So it’s like this!

The Points Mall... directly shut down!

This mysterious voice is really... a bit petty.

”What are you...” Shi Wanyun frowned, looking at him with slightly unsatisfied red-stained pupils.

She’d just been contracted, and he was there checking the watch, what did that mean?

Was she really that unimportant?

Xu Xin glanced at her, and a map appeared in his mind.

Shi Wanyun now indeed represented a green light point indicating an ally.

Success?

”Zeng Tao, let go.” Xu Xin said to Zeng Tao, who still restrained her.

”Oh, alright.” Upon hearing this, Zeng Tao released his grip, allowing Shi Wanyun to pull her hands back in front of her and rub her wrists, which were already purple from being squeezed.

Zeng Tao’s strength was seriously too much.

Xu Xin glanced at her battered wrists, eyes flickering slightly, then said, ”What is your ability?”

”... Speed.” Shi Wanyun said softly, ”My speed is now very fast.”

”Oh, then it’s the same as mine?” Lou Fei’Er was a bit surprised, then casually said, ”But your speed can’t compare to mine now. I’m about to upgrade to a high-level mutation; you’ve just entered a low-level mutation.”

”I’ll assign you a low treehouse. Since you can’t return, just stay here.” Xu Xin manipulated the watch to change the name of the owner of the empty low treehouse near her, ”Alright, I’ll send you down.”

”Don’t you... want to ask me anything?” Shi Wanyun looked at him and said.

”I need to handle other matters now, your issue, I’ll ask afterward. Just stay in that treehouse for now. Once explosion mode ends, you’ll enter a weakened state, so don’t go out.”

”... I understand.” Shi Wanyun remained silent for a moment, then obediently nodded.

Once Shi Wanyun was sent down, Xu Xin watched her follow his instructions and enter the treehouse he designated, squinting his eyes.

Is she really contracted again now?

... Regardless of whether she’s contracted or not, she has issues.

The issue lies in her recent wrist.

Entering explosion mode usually heals all wounds, right?

Previously, Lou Fei’Er’s fatal injuries could recover effortlessly; why is her wrist still purple from prolonged restraint?

... She didn’t enter explosion mode?

But if not entering explosion mode, why did her appearance change? How did the contract sign?

Or perhaps, her explosion mode is quite special?

... It’s really strange.

Anyway, this woman still cannot be trusted.

But now it seems she genuinely wants to stay here and doesn’t plan anything else; maybe just observe the situation for now then.

Although she remains a hidden danger, direct killing is not an option.

The secrets hidden within her must be uncovered.

If she has indeed been contracted, she will disclose everything when he questions her after finishing other business.

If not... then, consider it long-term planning, using force if necessary to make her reveal.

He sighed, then sent another voice message to Li Wenxi but still failed to connect.

”Hmm, she should be okay, right?” At this moment, Lou Fei’Er also came over to look out the window, ”As I said earlier, if it’s true, then she’s really... a bit naive.”

”Speaking of which,” Xu Xin turned his head upon hearing this, looking at Lou Fei’Er with suspicion, ”Why do the things you said earlier feel so much like your experience? Aren’t you doing this to me now? Have you actually broken free from control? You haven’t been acting all along, have you?”

”I...” Lou Fei’Er was suddenly at a loss, then stared at him with wide eyes, gritting her teeth, ”If I broke free from your control, I’d run away overnight without looking back! You bastard, still don’t trust me!”

”Oh?” Xu Xin smiled, ”In the resources you recently obtained, there’s a potion that could allow you to break free from control. Just one injection of that potion, and you could escape my control and run away without a second thought.”

”Huh?” Lou Fei’Er was stunned, then widened her eyes again, ”Huh? Are you saying... it’s really possible?!”

Zeng Tao suddenly turned his head: ”Wait... that potion can invalidate your contract?!”

Jin Yue was merely surprised but said nothing. She hadn’t been contractually controlled.

Xu Xin nodded.

The potion should lastingly negate any spiritual control related to bloodline mutation.

Including contracts created using high-level mutated biological materials.

”Take out all the treasures you acquired from that room,” Xu Xin said to the three.

He wanted to see what his several-century-old self left behind for his future self.
