Chapter 1239: Chapter 644: The Villa Has Excellent Soundproofing
Xu Xin and the alien invaders have been talking for a long time.
In the villa, Li Wenxi was somewhat restless.
"Why are they talking for so long?"
She stood by the window, looking toward the treehouse outside.
Due to the various buildings between the treehouse and the villa, she could only see a small portion of the tree’s canopy.
"There shouldn’t be any problem, right? That monster doesn’t look like a good guy!" Zeng Tao also expressed some concern.
"What do you mean not a good guy... First of all, it’s not even a person!" Lou Fei’Er rubbed her hair, "Ah, I really want to go over there and take a look! By the way, didn’t you think that monster was a good guy before?"
She looked at Zeng Tao.
"That was because we were all there!"
Zeng Tao tilted her head in defense, "With so many people around, we’re not afraid of one monster, but now it’s four against one, and I feel like if negotiations break down and a fight starts, Xu Xin and the others won’t have much of a chance..."
"It’s indeed a bit worrisome." Jin Yue also looked toward the treehouse, "Maybe we should get closer and observe."
"Don’t worry, at least for now, they’re talking quite well."
Qin Fu was sitting on Xu Ying’s usual sofa, engrossed in his game, saying, "I’ve been keeping an eye over there."
His abilities still worked within the World Tree, especially after gaining certain World Tree privileges.
As long as there were plants, he could sense them. Although he couldn’t see what was inside the treehouse, he could still vaguely perceive the situation by sensing the treehouse.
The three people and one monster were still sitting on the sofa.
"Except for just now when Wen Guixin left for some reason looking quite lost, the other three are still in the treehouse."
Qin Fu reported his observations.
"Sister Gui Xin, what happened to her?"
Li Wenxi looked around at another villa, somewhat worried.
Earlier, when Wen Guixin came out of the treehouse, they noticed and even surrounded her to ask some questions.
But Wen Guixin stammered and couldn’t speak, eventually saying she needed to calm down and wanted to be alone. She didn’t disclose any information and locked herself in her room.
It was the first time they had seen Wen Guixin in such a state.
What kind of shocking news could make her lose her spirit like this...
That’s why they’re very curious about what’s being discussed inside now.
Of course, they’re also worried about Xu Xin and the others’ safety.
"You don’t need to worry too much about Brother Xin’s matters. He’s wise enough to handle things, and besides, his sister is there too."
Ma Hongwei was in the villa, considered a rare guest since he had been busy researching new weapons lately. With new technology, new research was naturally in order.
"Hmmm, it’s been almost two hours now. Why haven’t they come out yet..." Li Wenxi leaned on the windowsill, resting her cheek and gazing toward the treehouse.
"Whimper..."
Keke was also leaning on the windowsill.
It was dozing off, eyes closed, basking in the sunlight.
Although there was no sun inside the World Tree, the light was identical to sunlight.
Its large tail hung down from the windowsill, occasionally swaying slightly.
Since Li Wenxi and the others returned, it had been like this.
It didn’t seem to sense any danger around, sleeping soundly.
"This little creature is really carefree..."
Li Wenxi grabbed its big tail and then turned to the others in the room, "Hey, what do you guys think, why did that monster come here?"
"Didn’t it come to seek collaboration with us?" Lou Fei’Er lifted her leg, "It’s not an alien invader, right? Yingying mentioned before that it’s a hybrid of an alien invader and a human. In the eyes of alien invaders, it might also be considered a monster."
"So it got kicked out?" Qin Fu put down the game controller, and on the screen, the massive boss’s figure dissipated in the wind, "That makes a lot of sense."
"And also a lunatic." Zeng Tao pursed her lips, "Feels like Xu Xin and the others aren’t safe with that lunatic. We shouldn’t have agreed to let it discuss with them alone."
"A hybrid between humans and monsters... and born from a human female." Ma Hongwei looked towards the distant canopy top of the treehouse.
"Eeek—"
Li Wenxi, Zeng Tao, and Lou Fei’Er rubbed their arms, and Jin Yue’s expression changed slightly.
"Just thinking about it feels terrifying..." Li Wenxi imagined impending doom, "If they have to be nurtured, wouldn’t it mean they have to, with that kind of monster... Oh my God..."
"Gasp—"
"Please... stop talking!"
Zeng Tao and Lou Fei’Er’s faces turned a bit pale.
Although neither of them had gone through such experiences, unlike Li Wenxi who had extreme fears in her imagination, just thinking about touching that black body covered in eyes...
"So... so scary!"
Zeng Tao looked terrified, then noticed Jin Yue still expressionless, and couldn’t help asking, "Don’t you find it scary?"
"Me? Heh..." Jin Yue let out a self-deprecating laugh, "Beasts and monsters aren’t much different to me."
"Ah... I’m sorry..." Zeng Tao lowered her head, apologizing softly.
