It should be noted that if it werenāt for special circumstances, someone like him who has signed a contract with Xu Xin would never be able to refuse his call request.
Xu Xin frowned slightly.
Itās indeed possible.
After all, his ability is to sense the situation above and beneath the ground around him, so he might really discover some anomaly nearby.
...Perhaps, itās truly related to what he and Ji Chaoyang were just discussing?
Itās indeed possible, after all, a similar incident happened in District 187 back then, and with Qin Fuās ability, he might really have noticed some clues at that time.
Letās wait until heās able to get in touch.
As for Zeng Tao...
Forget it, sheās basically unlikely to know anything.
She hasnāt even left her own area; even her treehouse is a short, low one...
Xu Xin went directly under Lou FeiāErās treehouse.
He didnāt go up directly but asked from below the treehouse, "Lou FeiāEr, are you awake?"
"Ah...! Iām awake, Iām awake!" Lou FeiāEr poked her head out of the treehouse window, "I just finished cooking and was about to call you guys."
Seeing she wasnāt sleeping, Xu Xin didnāt hesitate to enter her treehouse.
The dining table was set with a variety of foods, and Jin Yue stood beside it.
"Youāre here too?"
Xu Xin wasnāt surprised.
"Brother Xin." Jin Yue slightly bowed her head, lowering her eyelids.
Her voice and attitude seemed somewhat indifferent, but in her gaze, Xu Xin could still see the hidden gratitude deep within.
However, after experiencing such events, she was no longer willing to communicate much with others.
She was much more silent than the last time Xu Xin saw her, so after only saying two words, she stood there motionless.
"Why so reserved!" Lou FeiāEr couldnāt stand the atmosphere and said, "Alright, alright, letās eat. Why did you come to my place, Brother Xin~?"
The words "Brother Xin" were pronounced with emphasis by Lou FeiāEr, as if mocking Jin Yueās address to Xu Xin.
After all, Jin Yue was actually older than Xu Xin.
Moreover, Lou FeiāEr herself was actually a year older than Xu Xin.
This fellow...
She has never been consistent on how to address him, sometimes itās master, then boss, then Brother Xin.
"Letās eat and talk."
He had one thing to discuss with Lou FeiāEr.
He wanted Lou FeiāEr to climb the Xue Feng, the snowy peak around Qin Fu and Zeng Taoās original treehouse.
This winter needed to end quickly.
Just now, the twenty-sixth pillar of purple-black light shot into the sky, leaving only four slots left for the thirty Transmission Arrays.
And undeniably, Lou FeiāEr was definitely the fastest at that time, and the least affected.
Even Xu Xin, with his enhanced arm strength, was slower than her, although that was because he was attacked by vultures.
However, even for him, reaching the cloud layer was a matter of relying on perseverance and Qi Xuefeiās medication.
But for Lou FeiāEr, it was just a trivial matter. The extreme temperature changes were not a problem for her mutated body.
So, she was the most suitable person to climb the snow peak.
"You want me to climb that snow peak?" Lou FeiāEr reluctantly agreed while nodding, as she couldnāt refuse Xu Xinās request, "Alright, Iāll set off after eating. But..."
She looked at Xu Xin, smiling, "Is there no reward for activating another snow peak?"
"What reward do you want?" Xu Xin asked while swallowing a piece of steak.
"Um..." Lou FeiāEr patted her slightly greasy lips from eating, "I donāt know... I donāt seem to be lacking anything?"
Xu Xin shook his head, "After you eat, first come with us to the Transmission Array area. Establishing contact with Zone 1 needs your approval."
"Okay, okay." Lou FeiāEr nodded, then complained, "I have so much to do! I just woke up..."
At this moment, Jin Yue, who had been quietly eating by the side, suddenly spoke.
She looked up at Xu Xin, "Brother Xin, I... might be able to do it too."
"You...?" Xu Xin was a bit surprised, then shook his head, "As I recall, wasnāt your mutation strength-based? It doesnāt seem to give much advantage for climbing, better to let Lou FeiāEr handle it."
"Yeah, Jin Yue, let me do it." Lou FeiāEr also chimed in.
Although she found it troublesome, she didnāt want Jin Yue to be in danger. After all, she had empathy for this pitiful woman.
Jin Yue shook her head, "My mutation isnāt just strength."
"...Huh?" Lou FeiāEr was stunned, "Not just... You have multiple ability enhancements?"
Xu Xinās eyes widened slightly at her.
"Yes." Jin Yue stood up, "I can prove it."
Xu Xin and Lou FeiāEr exchanged a glance, stood up, and followed Jin Yue down to the base of the treehouse.
Jin Yue, tall and slim, stood there, her height surpassing even Li Wenxiās by quite a bit, with long legs standing straight.
"So, what exactly is your mutation?" Xu Xin asked.
"Strength was just the most noticeable at the time, so I thought it was just strength enhancement, but..."
She slightly bent her long legs and then gently leaped.
In Xu Xin and Lou FeiāErās surprised eyes, she leaped directly to the window side of the treehouse, sitting effortlessly on the sill.
