Starting Off Survival With A Small Treehouse

Chapter 1206 - 633: Who Attacked Xu Xin?

”Whimper, whimper!”

Although Keke has never clearly expressed why those stone statues aren’t dangerous, the little guy has always insisted on this view.

”Xu Xin, what do you think?” Ji Chaoyang asked Xu Xin, ”You’ve had close contact with those stone statues, do you think they’re dangerous?”

Xu Xin remained silent for two seconds and then shook his head: ”At least when I approached them, they didn’t give me any feeling of danger, which is why I dared to jump into the stone statue group. Moreover...”

Xu Xin looked at Keke, who was lying on the table, blinking at him: ”Keke’s perception of danger hasn’t had any issues so far.”

”Actually, you don’t need to worry so much.” Xu Ying, leaning with a somewhat lazy posture on the back of the sofa, fiddled with her nails, ”Even if those stone statue creatures are attacking the World Tree, their danger is far less than the survivors from a thousand years ago. What you should be discussing now is how to deal with the person who knocked Xu Xin down.”

What Xu Ying said indeed made sense.

”Alright, let’s first assume that those Stone Giant Beasts pose no threat to us.” Xu Xin stroked Keke in his arms, ”Then the person outside the World Tree, any thoughts?”

Everyone looked at the shell on the table that Keke had carried back.

This is the clue left by the opponent.

”Yingying, how strong are those survivors approximately?” Qi Xuefei asked Xu Ying.

Xu Ying sat up straight from the sofa and pointed to her nose: ”Do you guys know my strength?”

”Very strong, much stronger than me,” Ji Chaoyang said.

Xu Xin had also felt her power and speed; at least he and Xu Ying are on entirely different levels.

”In terms of physical capacity, I far surpass you all.” Xu Ying extended a finger and pressed it against the wooden table in front of her.

With a ”crack” sound, the wooden table spread out several cracks from where Xu Ying pressed.

”It’s not far superior; I can do that too.”

Zeng Tao extended a finger and similarly pressed down.

”Crack!”

This time, her finger directly plunged into the wooden chair.

Living in the World Tree these months, Zeng Tao’s abilities had grown stronger, and she now also had the trend of fully controlling her abilities, able to control her own weight without being constantly as heavy as thousands of pounds.

”Actually, I can too.” Wang Lei raised his hand, ”I just won’t demonstrate.”

”Well... You guys have had specialized reinforcement of yourselves; naturally, I can’t compare.” Xu Ying was a bit embarrassed, ”Speaking of strength, I’m at least several grades stronger than the other of you, and in terms of reaction speed, I’m much stronger even than Fei’Er, who has the fastest reaction among you.”

Lou Fei’Er nodded in acknowledgment: ”Her burst speed and reaction speed are both faster than mine.”

”After all, I have lived for three hundred years, although I haven’t emphasized combat, but three hundred years of continuous body strengthening has indeed made my abilities beyond ordinary.”

Xu Ying continued to point to herself: ”Here’s the key point, I have lived for three hundred years, and without combat emphasis, even so, my physical capabilities you still can’t match, even if in some aspect you catch up, in others, you’re nowhere near.”

This point was acknowledged by everyone with a nod.

”And the opponent, who has lived over a thousand years, constantly strengthening during these millennia, and some among them are ’order maintainers’ specialized for combat. From a strength standpoint, if I didn’t have the ability to control time and space, I completely wouldn’t want to face them.”

Xu Ying’s words led everyone into deep contemplation.

A few seconds later, Zhao Xiaochuan was the first to speak.

”Does individual physical fitness really matter now?” He questioned.

”No matter how strong their physical abilities are, they can’t fly swords or channel energy into feathers. In the face of modern weapons, they’re just so-so. What I want to know more now is how strong their weapons are.”

He said, picking up the shell on the table: ”With our current standards, do we have the ability to battle their weapons?”

”That’s what I’m about to address.” Xu Ying extended her hand to Zhao Xiaochuan, who knowingly placed the shell in her palm.

She picked up the shell and said to everyone: ”In the opponent’s hand, there are weapons supported by alien technology, compared to what we can make now, only stronger, not weaker. Furthermore, even if they’re not ’order maintainers,’ each of their physical strengths are far beyond the special forces you’re familiar with, and even comparable to superheroes.”

Xu Ying’s words once again silenced the room.

”However, you don’t need to worry overly much.” Xu Ying’s tone shifted, smiling, ”The weapons and equipment in these people’s hands, though supported by alien technology, aren’t overwhelmingly strong. The weapons offered by aliens to humans are manageable by them. They won’t offer the most sophisticated weapons. For instance, this.”

She tossed the shell on the table, making a crisp metallic sound.

”This thing, though also strong, isn’t significantly stronger than our weapons. The weapon I have from another space-time, however, was crafted using alien invader’s state-of-the-art technology, far exceeding the strength of this weapon.”
