Chapter 289: Heat Countermeasures? Air-conditioned Room, Iced Tea, Iced Watermelon!
"19 cubic meters of Storage Space acquired!"
Collecting the Storage Space from those beggars' bodies, Lin Yue was quite pleased with Bai and the others' haul this time.
Continuously acquiring Storage Space is always a good thing.
Moreover, as the beggars in the Underground Ruins were swiftly and massively eliminated, it should also serve as a wake-up call for the remaining stubborn ones.
I, Lin Yue, mean business.
If you continue to mingle with the Lizardmen and harm other humans,
then there's no apologies or hesitation, you're going down straight away!
After collecting three Golden Treasure Chests, Lin Yue instructed Bai and Xiao Meng to throw these bodies alongside the ones placed here in the morning by the burning giant Bone Worm Beast, to burn them together.
He glanced outside; indeed, he had eliminated many beggars yesterday, and Little Ice Lizard along with Bai and Xiao Meng had destroyed many beggars and Lizardmen, but the corpses of those enemies had disappeared without a trace.
Maybe they were dragged away by mutant creatures on the desert, or perhaps eaten by that giant Bone Worm Beast.
Anyway, this seems to be related to the Lizardmen again.
"It seems like everything can be connected now." Lin Yue tidied up the surroundings of the Shelter again, checked the system time, and realized it was still not yet eight in the morning.
However, the group chats and the world channel have become paradises for singing his praises, everyone is shocked and excited about him killing the second giant creature.
Lin Yue glanced at it and closed it.
How boring, these people.
Thinking about this sudden attack would be more interesting.
Lin Yue gazed at the towering inferno and the black smoke column outside, then looked at the completely unrecognizable door frame of the Shelter.
Just right, time to replace it with an alloy one.
[You've acquired an Alloy Shelter door!]
[Please install it in the appropriate position from the Shelter panel interface!]
Lin Yue followed the system prompt, embedding the seemingly thick and sturdy alloy door into the door frame in the Shelter interface.
The operation was smooth and seamless, just like before.
"The system is indeed convenient, but if it suddenly disappears, will the survivors who are used to its convenience instantly lose all advantages they have established over mutant creatures and Lizardmen?"
Lin Yue pondered this as he tidied up the exterior walls of the Shelter, finally restoring it to its original state.
It was still early, Little Ice Lizard and Xiao Meng had already cleaned the Underground Ruins once, so there's no need to worry about it for a while.
However, leaving it as is isn't really okay either; best to seal it with metal walls, to eliminate potential threats.
He then went over to check the greenhouse.
Thankfully, only two were damaged, and, as luck would have it, the Soilless Cultivation Kit inside wasn't trampled on.
"Replace, replace, can't leave anything broken." Lin Yue immediately spent 800 survival points to buy two greenhouses, replacing the original ones.
It really was fortunate this time; otherwise, the losses could have been unimaginable.
There were a few spots where the walls were damaged and collapsed, but that's not a big deal; Lin Yue decided to make repairs after dealing with other things, expanding the entire wall and using an existing high-grade wall design to build an incredibly high city wall!
Moreover, Lin Yue decided to create a mixed-material wall, combining iron blocks and stone blocks, super thickened, with spikes doubled.
If there's a city wall, even if a giant creature kicks it, they have to feel the pain for a while.
And place traps both inside and outside, extremely covert ones, step on one and you're instantly deceased, touch one and you're severely injured.
It's just…
Materials are insufficient.
Currently lacking in stone materials.
Heading to the warehouse in the basement, Lin Yue arrived at the Underground Ruins Stone Gate, with Bai and Xiao Meng following behind.
"Bai, did you all complete the exploration of this Underground Ruins?" Looking at the door, Lin Yue suddenly felt tempted.
Checking it out… wouldn't hurt.
"Gawu..." Bai shook its head, which was unexpected for Lin Yue.
The two of you, along with the Little Ice Lizards, stayed inside for so long before finally coming out, capturing over ten beggars and bringing back three Lizardman Priests, yet didn't complete the exploration?
Is the area of this Underground Ruins actually vast?
Lin Yue glanced at the stone gate of the Underground Ruins, finally taking out some iron blocks to make a wall, completely sealing it and cutting off any inside routes outside.
The stone ones aren't reliable anymore; Lizardmen can destroy stone walls with iron picks, had the lesson learned last time, can't make this mistake again.
After confirming the sturdiness of the iron wall, Lin Yue, along with Bai and the others, returned upstairs.
He prepared some food and drinks for Bai and the others, then sat back on the sofa to think.
From last night to today's series of events, honestly, it's quite terrifying upon detailed reflection.
In the dead of night, the Lizardmen and beggars came to besiege the Shelter.
Then after a fierce battle, Bai and Xiao Meng headed to the Underground Ruins in the morning, even taking all the Little Ice Lizards.
