Starting Off Survival With A Small Treehouse

Chapter 336: Chapter 273: Waking Up and Mutating! (4400 Words!)

Xu Xin didn’t interrupt his murmuring.

It seems that his relationship with Ma Hongyu isn’t very good either, otherwise, he wouldn’t have this attitude.

Ma Hongwei looked up at Xu Xin and suddenly laughed, ”I guess, you’re not going to keep me, are you? You killed my cousin, and even if I say I don’t care, you wouldn’t believe me. I suppose you’d first tell me that you’ll treat me as one of your own, have me make a lot of control panels and new weapons for you, and then eliminate me as an uncertain factor, right?”

Lou Fei’Er, standing to the side, couldn’t hold back and was about to speak but was stopped by Xu Xin with a gesture.

”You’re pretty accurate with your guess.” Xu Xin showed a smile.

To be honest, his guess was indeed very accurate. If there weren’t the ability of pills and contracts as a means of control, he might really do as Ma Hongwei said.

He really hated internal strife, so uncertain factors are best eliminated completely.

”Huh?” Lou Fei’Er turned to look at Xu Xin, not understanding why he would say that.

”Heh... then you might as well just kill me.” Ma Hongwei was in utter despair at this point.

This treehouse, for which he fought so hard, had turned into ruins, leaving him feeling no hope at all. Especially when facing the strongest existence in all the regions.

”However, I can offer you a chance.” Xu Xin looked at him, smiling, ”A genuine chance to survive.”

”...What chance?” Ma Hongwei looked up at him.

”Can you feel a force within your body that wasn’t there before?” Xu Xin pointed a finger at his chest.

”...Where did this force come from?” Ma Hongwei was silent for a moment before asking.

”I gave it to you.” Xu Xin stood up, took out a red pill, holding it between his fingers, ”It’s this kind of pill, a new development of ours, it can unleash the body’s unlimited potential, you should be feeling it now, if you want, you can erupt with great power.”

”...So? You want to use me as an experiment?” Ma Hongwei seemed to understand Xu Xin’s intention.

”Activate your power.” Xu Xin took a halberd out of his backpack, the metallic sheen making Ma Hongwei’s pupils constrict, ”If you can survive against me, I’ll let you go. Don’t worry, they won’t intervene. Just you and me, a one-on-one fight.” Xu Xin pointed to Silver King and Mimi.

Last time, Lou Fei’Er was forced to activate her power when her throat was slit, entering a near-death state, and directly losing consciousness, becoming a mutant with only attack instincts.

This time, he wanted to see if one’s consciousness could be retained when they activate their power on their own, and how the ability could be amplified.

Lou Fei’Er’s speed was enhanced. After activating her powers, she became very agile, although still not reaching Mimi’s level, but in terms of burst speed, she was a bit faster than Silver King.

At the same time, this change affected her speed even when her powers weren’t activated. Even in her normal state, Lou Fei’Er was much more agile than an average survivor.

He wondered what kind of enhancement Ma Hongwei obtained after taking the pill.

Ma Hongwei was silent for a few seconds before standing up on the spot.

”I don’t know if you’ll keep your word, but I have no choice.”

Saying this, his eyes gradually widened, and his breathing began to quicken.

Red blood patterns started to spread from his chin to his face, and his originally black pupils were gradually stained red with streaks of blood!

The heavy and rapid heartbeat clearly resonated in Xu Xin’s ears, causing his eyes to gradually narrow.

It’s starting! Autonomous mutation!
