Starting Off Survival With A Small Treehouse

Chapter 1026: Chapter 571: Sibling Reunion

At this moment, in the underground human base.

"Hmm...?" Xu Ying suddenly let out a soft sound, raising her eyebrows slightly.

"What’s wrong?" Li Wenxi turned her head to look at her.

The two of them were now resting in the villa.

They had just contacted Wei Shishi and explained the situation, hoping to use the Wei family’s military equipment to fly up and take a look.

Unfortunately, Wei Shishi didn’t agree with them directly.

The current patriarch was still Wei Bai, and Wei Shishi didn’t have the authority to use advanced military equipment here.

If it were somewhere else, it would be easier to discuss, but here in the heart of the human base, using military equipment to fly up to two or three kilometers high near the dome would be very conspicuous.

Especially since there were two other major families watching closely, doing something like this required extra caution.

So, Wei Shishi couldn’t promise them immediately.

She told the two that she would persuade her grandfather when he returned.

So, with nothing much to do, the two went back to the villa to wait for news from Wei Shishi.

However, neither of them could fall asleep.

It was almost morning anyway, so they decided not to sleep and started eating.

It was then that Xu Ying let out a soft "hmm" and looked up slightly.

"What’s wrong?" Li Wenxi followed her gaze.

There was only the ceiling.

"Hmm... really? Found it so easily?" Xu Ying blinked, "That entrance is supposed to be hard to find, right? Maybe it’s because of that little panda?"

"Little panda? You mean Keke?" Li Wenxi was intrigued by Xu Ying’s words, "What about Keke?"

"Ah, nothing, it’s just..." Xu Ying looked at Li Wenxi, "Our entrance here, my brother found it."

"...Really?" Li Wenxi’s eyes lit up immediately, "So fast! How long has it been?"

"I didn’t think it would be this quick either..." Xu Ying rubbed her head slightly troubled, "If my brother has opened that entrance, then they would really be connected."

"Open the entrance? What do you mean?" Li Wenxi asked.

She hadn’t used a normal method to come down at the time.

Xu Ying had pulled her into a relatively hidden forest, and before she could react, in the blink of an eye, she was in the underground world, in this villa.

She didn’t think much of it then, after all, she was used to using portals on the surface.

Of course, she still asked, "Is this a portal? Coordinates?"

"Ah... yes! It’s a very hidden portal, otherwise, it would be discovered." Xu Ying answered.

But now it seemed that it wasn’t a portal, but Xu Ying’s own teleportation ability.

So she wasn’t confident Xu Xin could find the entrance to the human base.

But they actually found it, and so quickly!

One day and one night?

"Hmm..." Xu Ying pursed her lips.

"I mean... previously, even I could only use my own teleportation ability to go between ground and here, the two places weren’t truly connected. But if my brother unlocked the mechanism that only he and I could activate..."

As Xu Ying spoke, the worry on her face deepened.

"Then, there will be a normal, usable passage between here and the ground?" Li Wenxi picked up the conversation.

Xu Ying slowly nodded: "That’s right. If those alien invaders find out, it wouldn’t be good."

"Didn’t they already know?"

Li Wenxi pointed overhead, "If our speculation is correct, didn’t they already set up a teleport device at the dome?"

"That’s different." Xu Ying shook her head.

"The teleport device’s function is the starting point of random and stable remote teleportation, with its main ability being ’random starting point’ and ’stability’, using the teleport device to teleport, no matter where the starting point is, there is no risk.

But its disadvantage is also obvious. The teleport device can’t do mass teleportation, it can only teleport one at a time, and there needs to be a time interval between each individual, which I don’t know exactly, but it should not be less than half an hour. This is a compromise made for stability.

So, even if there’s a teleport device here, we don’t need to worry about their massive army arriving through the teleport device, this human base is not under such a strong threat."

"I see, half-hour cooldown? Indeed no need to worry too much. Very stable, isn’t it..." Li Wenxi thought, "The coordinates Xu Xin makes, the teleportation is also very stable, right? We haven’t had any problems while teleporting."

"You mean that coordinate, it’s the culmination of our technology, pretty amazing, isn’t it?" Xu Ying showed a slightly proud expression, "I’m one of the researchers! But... it’s not exactly stable, is it? You would mostly feel dizzy and weak the first time you teleported, right?"

"Ah, now that you mention it, that’s true." Li Wenxi immediately recalled the situation from before, "It’s not just the first time, you basically need to teleport seven or eight times before there’s no side effect."

"Yeah, that’s a kind of instability." Xu Ying nodded, "Also, the coordinates need both a starting and an ending point, and the teleport distance can’t be too far, if it’s too far, there could be issues, causing the teleporter to be lost in chaotic space. But the teleport device’s distance is very far, it can even... cross planets."
