"Just now when I saw it, it had already fully recovered." Jin Yue reached out and touched it, saying, "Iām afraid... it took at most half a minute."
Half a minute...
Xu Xin laughed in surprise.
Half a minute was really fast.
"The recovery speed is much faster than before." Lou FeiāEr was also very astonished.
It was indeed much faster.
Previously, even scratches needed more than ten minutes to recover.
Such a large hole would have taken at least a day or two to disappear.
But now, it was repaired in just ten seconds!
This was only noticed ten seconds later; it might have instantly repaired itself when Zeng Tao pulled her leg out.
Is it because of Crystal City?
Or is it because of the World Tree?
Or perhaps, both?
In any case, Xu Xin felt that his sense of security in Crystal City had risen once more.
Moreover, if his treehouse could possess such a powerful recovery ability, then... what about the World Tree?
He suddenly felt that the growing World Tree might not be fragile at all.
He seemed to be able to sleep soundly now and gain another random enhancement.
But, before that...
"Brother Xin, I think itās feasible. Iāll borrow Zeng Tao for a while!" Ma Hongwei seemed a bit excited, "She might really be able to make the weapon I designed!"
Beside him, Zeng Tao looked a bit bewildered.
"We donāt have many resources right now, so be frugal during the experiment," Xu Xin reminded him.
With Li Wenxi not around, everything must be used sparingly.
"Donāt worry, Iāll first use stones and wood for the prototype!"
"Hmm... Iāll do my best!" Although Zeng Tao was slightly confused, she still clenched her fists and said.
"Go for it! If the plan succeeds, you can evolve from wielding a broadsword to carrying a cannon." Xu Xin smiled.
"Carrying a cannon... seems very impressive!"
Xu Xin sent Ma Hongwei and Zeng Tao out, and they immediately went into Ma Hongweiās treehouse.
The room was left with only Lou FeiāEr, Jin Yue, and Shi Wanyun in the side room.
"Jin Yue, last night you helped other survivors equip crossbows, right? How did it go?" Xu Xin asked.
"Everyone was equipped with three repeating crossbows, and there was some fire suppression against groups of creatures," Jin Yue replied.
The barrage of explosive crossbow bolts did indeed have strong fire suppression.
Itās just a pity that without Wenxi, the momentum is lacking; using explosive crossbow bolts for fire suppression might only be viable once.
"Alright then, Jin Yue, come with me. Iāll take you to inject the gene serum."
"Gene... serum?" Jin Yue was first stunned, then her eyes lit up slightly, "Okay."
Since thereās no immediate danger now, itās time to start administering the gene serum to the people around him one by one.
Everyone else is busy right now, so Jin Yue can go first.
Moreover, she is the only one who has taken the mutation pill without signing a contract.
Although she is indeed very loyal, this also means she is more susceptible to mental control.
Itās better to let her inject the gene serum first.
"FeiāEr, you come along with us too."
"Oh, okay!" Lou FeiāEr responded, then whispered to Jin Yue with a smile, "Now you can live forever too!"
"I donāt care about immortality. But after injecting the gene serum, at least I wonāt have to worry about my mental issues." Jin Yue smiled slightly.
"Letās go."
Xu Xin took the two women to the treasure room that only he could open and completed the injection for Jin Yue.
After the injection, Jin Yue felt weak all over and fell into a coma right away.
"I need to go back to the treehouse and get some sleep to boost myself. You take care of her," Xu Xin said, holding the unconscious Jin Yue.
Her body was extremely hot.
"Boost? Oh, I got it, leave it to me." Lou FeiāEr reacted and quickly patted her full chest, "Iām very familiar with this symptom!"
She took Jin Yue back to her room, and Xu Xin returned to his treehouse and lay on the bed.
This was the first time he had slept since Wenxi left.
"...I feel a bit uneasy."
Thinking this, he slowly closed his eyes.
He hoped that when he woke up, everything would still be as usual.
