Starting Off Survival With A Small Treehouse

Chapter 1430 - 708: The Truth of the Glacial Season (Part 4)

The machinery isn’t large, about the size of a stove.

But Xu Xin and the other two, who were close to it, knew that it was this machine emitting the cold air!

The temperature near this machine is incredibly low!

It feels like it’s minus one hundred degrees!

The warm scarves were already useless.

Li Wenxi shivered and clung tightly to Xu Xin’s arm.

This is too cold!

”Phew...” Xu Ying exhaled a trembling breath, ”Can... can we take it away?”

”Yes... we can!” Li Wenxi covered her mouth with a scarf, otherwise she felt her saliva would instantly freeze into ice chips, ”This thing isn’t connected to the ground!”

”Then... let’s take it.”

Regardless of whether it’s useful or not, we’ll take whatever we can.

Xu Xin thought for a moment, turned his wristband, and gently touched the machine with it.

At the moment of contact, his wristband was immediately frozen, and at the same time, his whole arm went numb!

Fortunately, the machine was taken into the wristband at that moment.

”Brother, your arm!” Xu Ying’s expression changed.

”Ah!” Seeing his frozen arm, Li Wenxi’s face turned pale and she immediately reached out to rub it.

Luckily, he only touched it for an instant and gradually regained feeling.

”It’s fine now.” Xu Xin waved his arm as the feeling gradually returned, ”I can’t believe we could really take this thing.”

And it was so easy, with no protective measures whatsoever.

It seems the alien invaders never thought this thing could be stolen.

”As long as you’re okay...” Li Wenxi said with lingering fear, ”Your arm was frozen in an instant, just like...”

She glanced back at the iced-beast sculptures.

”If I had prolonged contact, maybe it would turn out like that.” Xu Xin glanced back and said.

Seeing Xu Xin was fine, Xu Ying heaved a sigh of relief and then said, ”I thought the cooling here relied on some air conditioning-like device, which should be connected externally to expel heat. I didn’t expect it was caused by this portable machine...”

Xu Xin turned the wristband.

He suspected that inside this machinery, there might be a powerful refrigerant similar to liquid nitrogen. Of course, it should be much stronger than liquid nitrogen’s cooling effect.

Otherwise, such a small machine couldn’t possibly freeze such a large space.

”Do you think our previous ’Cold Wave’ event...” Li Wenxi suddenly had a whimsical thought and said to Xu Xin, ”The event when you climbed the snow mountain, and it suddenly turned winter, could it have been caused by something like this?”

Back then, the temperature dropped drastically.

Snow fell heavily, and everyone’s treehouses were almost completely covered by snow.

”...It’s quite possible.” Xu Xin raised an eyebrow slightly.

Perhaps it’s related to the powerful refrigerant that might exist inside this machine.

Just like humans can use dry ice to artificially influence weather and make rain clouds rain.

It’s only natural for alien invaders to have means to influence the climate.

It might really be related to this machinery.

But now’s not the time to discuss this.

”We should leave here quickly.” Xu Xin said, ”Have you noticed that the temperature here is rising?”

The three of them looked at those giant beasts.

Visibly, some of the iced-beast sculptures began to tremble slightly.

”Let’s go... they’re not dead, the warm-blooded animals among them have awakened and are releasing body heat, raising the temperature here!”

A part of them might come back to life soon!

The vitality of these beasts is indeed tenacious!

Immediately, Xu Ying grabbed Xu Xin and Li Wenxi’s arms, and without any hesitation, she teleported them and disappeared from the spot.

In this space, the sound of ice layers cracking occasionally echoed.

And as time passed, the cracking sounds became more frequent.

Soon after, low growling sounds began to echo!

The temperature in this area also kept rising.

Countless Earth and alien giant beasts were gradually waking up.

”Do you think those beasts might cause chaos if they wake up?” Li Wenxi pressed the lit green button.

The doorway was closed.

”Who knows, maybe they can’t even escape that space.” Xu Ying said.

”The alien creatures might not even be able to breathe the air here.” Xu Xin shook his head and said, ”But it’s nice to give them some trouble.”

The three of them had already arrived at the entrance leading further down.

Puffs of hot air still gushed out from the cave.

Below, it was still pitch black.

Nothing could be seen.
