Starting Off Survival With A Small Treehouse

Chapter 512 - 253: The Treasure Chest Monster Achieves Merit, The 2nd Daoguang Column Shoots to the Sky!

"Great! It’s finally over!" Li Wenxi raised her crossbow, cheered, and then took Keke from her shoulder and gave her a fierce hug.

"Ying ying ying?"

Xu Xin also breathed a sigh of relief.

At his feet, there were still some statues he had sliced in half but hadn’t killed, struggling and writhing. He casually swung his long halberd, stabbing into the chest area, turning these writhing statues into dust.

"It’s not over yet; there are even stronger statues inside." Xu Xin looked at the giant pit, where the statues of the intermediate mutant creatures still lay on the ground, along with the two wyverns.

If these guys come to life, they won’t be so easy to deal with.

"Hehe, it’s temporarily over. Hmm... My arms are so sore from constantly stringing the crossbow!" Li Wenxi rubbed her arms, walked over to Xu Xin, and stood by the pit edge to look inside, "All these statues have turned to powder, and they’ve all been blown up by the explosion..."

Lou Fei’Er also came over, having already sheathed her dagger at her waist. Her face still showed a touch of redness, and she was still somewhat excited: "Killing, it’s really exhilarating..."

Ji Chaoyang and Qi Xuefei also came over.

Qi Xuefei’s arms were trembling slightly, one hand hung weakly in front of her, and the other gently massaged her arm.

Obviously, the continuous high-intensity stringing and shooting put a great burden on her arms. Her strength wasn’t enhanced many times, and now that she relaxed, she was somewhat exhausted.

Li Wenxi was slightly better. Although she said her arms were sore, apart from rubbing her arms twice, there was no other reaction.

After all, before coming to this world, she was in good physical condition, frequently visiting the gym. After coming to this world, she dug every day, so in terms of strength and endurance, she was much better than Qi Xuefei, who stayed in the treehouse all day long.

Ji Chaoyang looked at the statues in the giant pit and asked with some doubt: "It’s so chaotic around; do they have no reaction? Do they only activate if we step inside?"

The Silver King and Mimi still stood at the edge of the giant pit.

They looked at the circle of intermediate mutant creature statues and the two wyvern statues with tense bodies and hadn’t relaxed vigilance.

Indeed, although they hadn’t intervened before, they would still turn and lift their eyes towards this side. But this time...

"Eh?" Xu Xin’s pupils slightly shrank, "Did that wyvern statue move?"

The other statues hadn’t changed, only the wyvern statue in the center made a slight movement.

In the center of the giant pit, the two wyvern statues, one slightly closer to them was turning its back, while the other faced them.

And the wyvern statue facing them, its colossal head had now lifted up, slightly tilted towards their direction, its eyes seemed to be staring right at them!

"Moved? Huh?" Li Wenxi looked at the wyvern statue in the center, her eyes slightly trembling, "Is it... is it watching us?"

Ji Chaoyang also frowned, "It did move. Could it be that this wyvern statue has been observing our fight? Or is there someone monitoring us from behind?"

Lou Fei’Er glanced at the wyvern statue, and instantly, the slight blush on her face vanished, her cheeks turned white, and she even took a step back.

"That wyvern statue... it’s so strong!" Lou Fei’Er swallowed slightly, instinctively leaning towards Xu Xin, "When I looked at it just now, I didn’t feel this way. Now it feels very powerful; I’m totally no match for it!"

Oh?

Xu Xin became alert.

Didn’t feel anything before, now there is.

That means the wyvern statue has come to life now, which is why there’s a sense of danger?

"Keke, is the wyvern statue dangerous?" Xu Xin asked Keke, who was comfortably petted in Li Wenxi’s arms.

"Ying?" Keke tilted her head slightly to look at the wyvern statue, scrutinized with her eyes, tilted her little head, then shook it, "Ying."

"Does Keke mean there’s no danger?" Qi Xuefei reached out to pet Keke’s little head and asked.

"Ying!"

"Uh... I just said it’s powerful, didn’t say it’s dangerous." Lou Fei’Er defended herself.

She took another look at the wyvern statue, her face showing a somewhat frightened expression: "Only the wyvern statue watching us gives me this feeling, the other one doesn’t. It feels like... mutant creatures instinctively submitting and fearing a higher-level creature? That wyvern statue definitely has some problem!"

Ji Chaoyang spoke: "Perhaps there really is someone monitoring us through that wyvern statue. Honestly, ever since the formation was activated, near this giant pit, I’ve always felt like being watched. Of course, it might just be my imagination."

"Eek..." Li Wenxi grabbed Xu Xin’s arm, "Sounds scary... So what should we do now? Continue attacking that circle of intermediate mutant creature statues?"

Honestly, Xu Xin is also somewhat unsure of what to do now.

Although those intermediate mutant creature statues formed a small circle closer to the interior, their numbers were still considerable, at least fifty or sixty in total. So many intermediate mutant creatures, to be honest, he hadn’t faced before.
