Starting Off Survival With A Small Treehouse

Chapter 1428 - 708: The Truth of the Harsh Winter Season (Part 2)

The red buttons shouldn’t be considered important.

Xu Xin directly reached out and pressed one of the lit-up red buttons.

And at the same time, Xu Ying pressed another.

As the ground slightly trembled, it seemed like something was about to change again.

"Ah, a new path has appeared on the wall over there." Li Wenxi looked toward the back of the control panel.

Like the previous metal wall, this wall also began to transform.

Countless metal blocks recessed and scattered, eventually forming a door opening with edges and corners.

"There’s a path over there as well."

Li Wenxi pointed to another wall.

A door opening appeared on that wall as well.

Are these two green buttons actually two paths?

Speaking of which, the "doors" in this giant spaceship are really interesting; are they all directly unfolded from the wall?

"Sister-in-law, do you still have a card that reacts to this control panel?"

Xu Ying asked Li Wenxi.

"Oh, right."

Li Wenxi took out a card and immediately swiped it at the "card swipe area."

Immediately, two other buttons lit up in red.

However, this time no green buttons lit up.

They promptly pressed these two buttons as well.

Immediately, two more door openings unfolded.

"Let’s go, let’s take a look."

Although there are four door openings, the three did not split up to act independently.

Though there seemed to be no danger so far, after all, they were inside a giant spaceship navigating the universe by alien invaders.

Acting separately here would be like the protagonist team in a horror movie who insist on splitting up to explore, purely courting death.

"Our task, should be completed soon, right?"

Lou Fei’Er raised her arm and wiped the sweat off her forehead with her sleeve, asking.

"After we finish cutting this place, we can wrap up."

Zhao Xiaochuan continued working with the cutting tool, "Zzzzzz—."

His movements now were already very skillful; with just a sweep of his arm, he could cut down a large piece of crimson crystal.

At this moment, Zeng Tao entered the secret chamber where they were.

"Other chambers have all been loaded with our nuclear weapons; there’s no big problem. These crimson lights don’t really affect our nukes."

The crimson lights basically only affect biological entities; earlier those mechanical small jellyfish flew around freely here. There may be some impact, but it’s not significant.

Wen Guixin, Wang Lei, and others also entered.

"So that means once we finish cutting here and load the nukes, our mission is basically done," Wen Guixin said.

"Four cutters working simultaneously should take less than half an hour," Zhao Xiaochuan said without turning his head.

"Hmm..." Lou Fei’Er licked her dry lips, "Will Xu Xin and the others be back within half an hour?"

"Doesn’t seem likely," Qin Fu shrugged, "That giant spaceship is so big; they’ve only been out for half an hour now, right? One hour to scour such a massive ship... probably not enough time."

"Uh... What do we do then?" Wang Lei scratched his head, "Do we wait here after we finish?"

"What else can we do?" Wen Guixin rolled her eyes at him, a bit frustrated, "Except Xu Ying, who else can lead us out? Are we supposed to detonate these nukes here and blow ourselves up?"

"Ah, I should have stuck to Xu Xin and gone with them..." Lou Fei’Er whispered.

"Ah! Right! Without Xu Ying, we can’t get out!" Zeng Tao then realized and suddenly became anxious, "What do we do? What if... what if they have trouble outside? Then we wouldn’t be able to get out!"

"If they really run into trouble, then we’ll just be buried with them," Jin Yue said softly.

"No way..." Zeng Tao looked around, "Should I go check on that mechanism? Maybe we’ll be able to get out through it!"

"You better stay put!" Lou Fei’Er slapped her head, "Who said they’re bound to run into trouble? With Yingying there, they’re much safer than us."

"That’s... true."

"No need to worry so much, right?"

At this time, Zhao Xiaochuan who was cutting turned around and said.

"Brother Xin said, after all, they’ll be out for just an hour. Even if they don’t gain anything, they would return within an hour."

"So, hurry up and help me cut! Only when four cutting tools work together can we finish in half an hour!"

Zhao Xiaochuan said with some frustration.

"Oh right." Zeng Tao immediately picked up a cutting tool and began cutting.

"Uh... Brother Lei, how about you do it? I’m feeling a bit dizzy." Qin Fu gestured with the cutting tool to Wang Lei.

"Alright, I’ve rested enough myself." Wang Lei took the cutting tool and moved towards Zhao Xiaochuan’s position.

"I’ll do it." Jin Yue took the cutting tool from Lou Fei’Er and also began cutting.

The speed of the four people’s cutting was indeed very quick; this last section of the nuclear missile chamber was starting to take shape.

"Xu Xin, please come back soon."

Wen Guixin sighed and murmured.

"Do not let anything happen."

-----------------

On the other side, the four of them, Xu Xin’s team, had already explored all the four opened entrances.

Two of them were small rooms.

The rooms contained facilities like beds and tables, seemingly...

Single-person dormitories for the giant spaceship’s staff?

These two rooms weren’t particularly interesting.
