NOVEL NEXT Chapter 289: Heat Countermeasures? Air-conditioned Rooms, Iced Tea, and Iced Watermelon!_3
To be honest, Lin Yue doesn't want to do this either, but there are only so many survival points, and if he doesn't spend them, they'll keep increasing.
"I really don't know how to spend them... Aluminum blocks cost 100 survival points per unit? Too cheap. Right, let's get some lead blocks, we're running out of bullet materials too."
Lin Yue did some shopping and found that the materials were almost gathered. He also took out some insignificant little gadgets he had in his warehouse.
Soon, with a flash of white light, five new air conditioners appeared on the ground!
Five units, plus the previous three, should just be enough.
Place one in the living room, bedroom, and where the Little Ice Lizards hang out upstairs, and one each for the temporary bedroom, workstation, food warehouse, and water warehouse downstairs, four units for each level should be enough for now.
Lin Yue operated the system panel and soon installed these air conditioners effortlessly.
Gotta say, the system is really convenient.
Lin Yue sighed again.
Sitting on the sofa, he picked up the remote, and with a pleasant sound, the air conditioners successfully started!
After glancing at the somewhat dusty thermometer on the wall, he decided to lower the temperature a bit.
"35 degrees in the early morning, that's a bit too much. Let's go straight to 23 degrees, and if that's not enough, then 17!"
There's plenty of gasoline, and the generator is up for it, so Lin Yue doesn't care about any emission issues.
In this Otherworld, he's the only one using air conditioning, so the impact should be very limited, right?
This isn't Earth, and one or two air conditioners won't make much difference. Now if he were to worry about other issues, that'd be a bit crazy.
As the room temperature gradually dropped, Lin Yue felt much more comfortable, and his irritability slowly faded away.
He took a large watermelon out from the Storage Space, sliced it open leisurely, and put it in the fridge to cool for a while. Once it's nicely chilled, it would truly be the ultimate enjoyment.
Bai, Meng, and the Little Ice Lizards seem to enjoy this cool environment, each running to the living room and lying directly on the floor, forsaking the sheepskin rugs.
Looks like it's really hot.
He glanced at the thermometer again.
"25 degrees, that's good enough." He took a big gulp of iced tea and couldn't help but burp.
What to do next?
When the weather's hot, people tend to get lazy, feel sleepy, especially in such a comfortable air-conditioned room.
But laying around isn't Lin Yue's character.
He opened the alloy door, and a wave of heat hit him, but he didn't stop. Instead, he went directly to the warehouse and took out the asphalt road materials stored there.
"Start from the shelter door here and extend a road to the gate over there, let's use asphalt first; tar isn't a good choice in this hot weather."
He had already acquired the design drawings for the asphalt road. Now, he just needed to collect materials and follow the system's methods to pave it all at once.
To get rich, first build roads!
But for Lin Yue, his sole purpose for building the road is convenience.
He's got a vehicle, and will need a large off-road vehicle later, so road construction has become a must-do task.
The ground slowly became paved with asphalt and grew increasingly smooth.
It extended from the shelter's building door to the gate of the outer wall, and then Lin Yue stood on the road and continued extending it forward.
This is also the first road in the Otherworld!
