CHAPTER 317: CHAPTER 264 ENHANCED RANDOM AMPLIFICATION AFFINITY AMPLIFICATION

Returning to the treehouse, Xu Xin first went to the art room and began carving green-grade crystals.

Ji Chaoyang gave him nine "spoils," so naturally, he had to return an equal number of crystal carvings.

Soon, three crystal carvings were completed under his hands. Xu Xin glanced at the time; only half an hour had passed.

Very good, now he only needs ten minutes to complete a green-grade artwork.

Xu Xin first traded these three crystals to Ji Chaoyang, then went back to the bedroom and lay down on the bed.

The creation of these three crystal carvings also began to exhaust his mind.

It’s time to sleep.

Lying in bed, Xu Xin looked at the ceiling, thinking about the experiences of the past few days and the trajectory for the future.

Who knows if, tomorrow morning, this world will be covered in ice and snow.

According to Ji Chaoyang’s prediction, there’s a high chance it won’t be tomorrow, but likely the day after.

If the weather remains normal, he’ll take Lou Fei’Er along and capture Ma Hongwei. Ma Hongwei’s ability can significantly enhance the treehouse’s defenses; he’s an indispensable talent. If he refuses to surrender, then he can only be killed directly.

Such a person is a great asset on our side, but on the other side, he’s definitely a colossal problem.

Xu Xin took out the mutant pill and looked at it in front of him.

Perhaps he could make Ma Hongwei like Lou Fei’Er, become a mutant creature, and then sign a contract with him, so he could feel more at ease.

After all, he killed his brother, and judging from the name, that Ma Hongyu is likely his own brother.

Although he doesn’t know their sibling relationship well, from the fact that Ma Hongwei gave Ma Hongyu so many repeats, even at the risk of exposing his own abilities to help Ma Hongyu, it indicates that he values this younger brother highly.

But Xu Xin actually doesn’t really want to give this mutant pill to others.

This is a life-saving miracle medicine that can bring Lou Fei’Er back to life, and without knowing how to obtain it now, this pill should be reserved for himself.

Besides, he also wants to wait until he meets the Chang Yin Family again, have them check the ingredients of the pill, and see if they can replicate it.

Well, as they say, things will sort themselves out when they come to the crunch, he’ll think about what to do when the time comes.

As long as they don’t talk about him killing Ma Hongyu, no one else will know.

"Hmm..." Keke flipped over again, belly up, sprawled out, its big tail just landed on Xu Xin’s face.

"This little guy." Xu Xin pushed its tail away, patted its little head, and also closed his eyes, falling into sleep.

...

In the morning, sunlight shone on the bed through the window, and Xu Xin opened his eyes as well.

Keke was lying beside him, watching him with open eyes.

"...You little guy, woke up early?" Xu Xin reached out to scratch Keke’s chin.

"Hmm~" Keke responded comfortably.

He got up and sat on the bed, suddenly hearing a sound near his ear.

[Detected treehouse decoration level greater than 500, obtaining today’s random augmentation: Affinity enhancement, effective for one day. Additionally, you can choose a second augmentation from historical augmentations.]

...?

Xu Xin immediately became alert.

His [random augmentation] ability had become stronger!

Because his decoration level exceeded 500!

If the treehouse decoration level is greater than 100, you can obtain one random augmentation. This time, it prompted him that the treehouse decoration level is already greater than 500. In addition to obtaining one random augmentation, he can even choose another one from historical augmentations!

Today’s random augmentation is called affinity enhancement. From the name, does it mean it’s easier to generate goodwill and closeness with others?

"Hmm?" Keke tilted its head as Xu Xin gained the ability.

Xu Xin also looked at Keke, engaging in eye contact with it.

"Hmm... Hmm!" Keke held his gaze for two seconds, then suddenly jumped onto his leg, snuggling in his arms, its big tail wagging.

...It seems this so-called "affinity enhancement" is effective not only on humans but also on beasts.

Unexpectedly, it even affected this little guy.

Xu Xin petted Keke’s little head, first glancing outside.

Outside was still that desolate sight, a bare jungle, and a ground covered with fallen leaves.

"Phew... Fortunately." Xu Xin let out a slight breath, it seems the severe cold will arrive tomorrow.

He swiped his watch, clicked on the [decoration level] option’s [random augmentation], and checked the items in historical augmentations.

The list displayed the augmentations he had previously randomly obtained.

[Vision augmentation], [hearing augmentation], [strength augmentation].

Now, he can randomly choose one from these three as today’s second augmentation.

This random augmentation ability is really powerful!

Each of these three abilities is very strong, making Xu Xin find it difficult to choose.

After careful consideration, he ultimately chose hearing augmentation.

This ability really helped him out last time; with this ability, almost all movements around him are under his control. Lou Fei’Er was also defeated by this augmentation.

He just experienced strength augmentation yesterday; although very strong, it didn’t offer much qualitative enhancement.

Vision augmentation allows for distant viewing; he initially relied on vision augmentation to find the surrounding treehouses, but now with the treehouse lacking withering, its color significantly differs from the surroundings, making it easily discoverable with normal vision.
