Starting Off Survival With A Small Treehouse

Chapter 1041: Chapter 576: Greening Crystal City_2

A movable heavy cannon?

Xu Xin stood up and walked over to look at his blueprint.

On the blueprint, there was a heavy cannon.

... A handheld heavy cannon?

"Brother Xin, we surely won’t always stay holed up in Crystal City and not go out, right?"

Ma Hongwei looked up at Xu Xin as he walked over.

"So, I want to create a super weapon that can be carried around, allowing us to kill giant beasts anytime, anywhere, instead of just living in Crystal City."

This is something Xu Xin has always felt is lacking.

Lou Fei’Er and the others all possess very strong physical abilities, but they’re still somewhat struggling when facing giant beasts.

As things stand, they have to rely on the treehouse crossbows to kill beasts.

If there’s a weapon that can kill giant beasts, that would be the best...

"You haven’t succeeded yet?"

"No."

Ma Hongwei’s expression showed some frustration and confusion, along with a touch of helplessness.

"Perhaps this has exceeded my ability. My capability is building heavy weapons for the treehouse, yet I want to make portable heavy weapons.

Although the structure and various data are all complete, I simply can’t use my ability to create them."

Xu Xin looked again at the blueprint.

The internal structure of the cannon was designed with great detail, accompanied by all kinds of meticulous labels and data. It’s clear how much effort he put into it.

But unfortunately, if the ability can’t create it, then it’s unattainable for them.

After all, they haven’t established any heavy industry system, so how could they create a metal giant cannon?

"Zeng Tao." At this moment, Jin Yue suddenly spoke, looking at Zeng Tao, who was still playing around with Lou Fei’Er, "Doesn’t she have the ability to... make heavy weapons?"

Xu Xin and Ma Hongwei were both stunned.

Then Xu Xin reacted and burst into laughter, "Yeah! This silly girl has been so clueless lately, almost forgetting her ability!"

"Brother Xin, her ability is...?" Ma Hongwei asked, somewhat puzzled.

He seldom communicated with others and didn’t know much about Zeng Tao, only that she looked like a middle schooler but was actually an adult with great strength and a hefty weight; he knew nothing else.

"Her ability might help you succeed. Zeng Tao, come... what are you doing!?"

Zeng Tao and Lou Fei’Er’s scuffle had evolved from playful antics to a real fight.

She kept trying to catch and attack Lou Fei’Er but missed every time, while Lou Fei’Er mocked her, making her face red and neck thick with frustration.

And then, with a "crack," she punched down and broke the sofa!

"Whimper?!" Keke, who was sleeping on the sofa armrest, was startled awake.

Even Mimi Silver King and the others lying nearby lifted their heads and looked over.

"Ah!" Zeng Tao, feeling defeated, kicked at Lou Fei’Er, but not only did she miss, she also lost her balance, and her raised foot crashed down onto the ground.

"Crunch!"

The loud noise made Shi Wanyun in the adjacent bedroom cover her head under the blanket.

Zeng Tao’s foot went right through the floor, leaving a big hole.

She heard Xu Xin calling out to her.

Lou Fei’Er’s eyes widened: "You... you used so much force to kick me?"

Zeng Tao panicked, hurriedly pulled her foot out of the ground.

Then she dared not move.

She cautiously turned to Xu Xin: "Well... the sofa is easy to make, and the floor can repair itself..."

Xu Xin walked over and gave her a light knock on the head: "Are you a husky, always wrecking the house!"

"Ugh..." Zeng Tao didn’t dare dodge, only pouted aggrievedly.

Lou Fei’Er nudged over: "It’s no big deal, really, just lost a sofa; we can make another one... Ah!"

Her head was flicked by Xu Xin, and she immediately covered it with a glare.

"If you hadn’t provoked her, would this happen?" Xu Xin said impatiently.

"Well... Xiaotaozi is too cute; I couldn’t resist teasing her."

"You’re the cute one, your whole family is cute!"

Lou Fei’Er and Zeng Tao locked eyes, equally competitive.

Meanwhile, Jin Yue had started cleaning up the sofa debris.

Keke ran over to Silver King Mimi to cuddle and sleep with them.

"Alright, alright. Zeng Tao, Ma Hongwei needs your help."

"He needs my help? For what?" Zeng Tao immediately trotted over to Ma Hongwei.

Ma Hongwei began explaining his plan to her.

"Huh?" Jin Yue let out a soft surprise.

"What’s up?" Lou Fei’Er was helping her tidy up the sofa fragments and immediately looked over curiously upon hearing her voice.

Jin Yue pointed at the floor: "Previously, was the treehouse’s recovery speed that fast?"

"Recovery speed? Ah!" Lou Fei’Er’s eyes widened as she called to Xu Xin, "Xu Xin, come over quickly!"

"What’s up?" Xu Xin walked over.

Lou Fei’Er pointed at the floor: "Look, the big hole Zeng Tao stomped in just now has completely disappeared!"

Oh?

Xu Xin looked over.

Indeed.

You could say there’s no trace left.

The ground is perfectly flat, showing no sign of damage, as if it had never suffered any harm.

Yet Xu Xin saw earlier that Zeng Tao’s calf had smashed right into the floor, surely creating a big hole.
