Five iron storage boxes were neatly arranged in the corner of the room. Although the exterior was covered with dust, the boxes were not rusted and remained sturdy, suggesting that the contents inside were well preserved.

Zhang Shi carefully examined it and found that the storage box was similar to the system backpack, and was actually a space-type item, except that it only had five slots and a weight limit.

Zhang Shi grinned, knowing he had struck gold, and began to examine the contents of the box with great interest.

The most abundant item was gold essence stone. The entire space in the first chest was filled with it. Conservatively estimated, there must be more than 5,000 units of gold essence stone in this storage chest.

Overjoyed, Zhang Shi opened the other storage boxes to check and finally obtained a huge amount of basic resources.

Zhang Shi ignored all ordinary quality resources such as wood, pig iron, food, and even gold coins, and simply skipped them. What he cared about were the quality-specific items.

The highest grade items were an array plate and a set of armor, which appeared to be the treasures of the original owner of this shelter, with extremely excellent attributes.

[Spirit Gathering Array Plate (Purple) x1: A divine artifact that can gather the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. Its effect is enhanced when used in conjunction with certain array formations.]

[Gold Essence Heavy Armor (Purple) x1: Heavy armor crafted from gold essence, offering excellent defensive capabilities. When worn, increases Strength by 5, Heat Resistance by 5, and melee attack damage by 20%.]

Without a second thought, Zhang Shi handed the heavy armor to Zhao Feng. Since his current primary means of attack was with bows and arrows, it would be a waste for him to have the armor's melee capabilities.

After obtaining the heavy armor, Zhao Feng didn't hesitate and immediately put it on, replacing his original equipment. At this moment, what appeared before Zhang Shi was a "golden man" completely covered in iron armor.

The Golden Essence Stone Armor glowed naturally, gleaming brilliantly. Combined with Zhao Feng's already tall stature, it made him appear like a golden-armored giant, exuding a powerful aura.

Zhao Feng smiled with satisfaction, stretched his body, and found that the heavy armor didn't feel heavy on his body, and his joints didn't feel stiff. Moreover, his body felt as if it had an air conditioner installed, cool and refreshing, not stuffy at all.

Ignoring Zhao Feng, who was jumping around in the room, Zhang Shi turned his attention to other props.

There were many items of various sizes and qualities inside, but Zhang Shi could only use a few at the moment. Among them, there were quite a few green-quality [Shelter Migration Cards] and [Resource Generation Cards], five of each. It seemed that these items were not rare for the original owner.

Furthermore, what surprised Zhang Shi the most was that he also discovered rice seedlings, and the quality of these rice seedlings was quite high.

[Golden Rice Seedlings (Green) x3: Premium grade rice, cold and heat resistant, will grow immediately after planting. Adaptable to various extreme weather conditions, short growth cycle, high yield. Consuming a certain amount will permanently increase physical attributes.]

Since transmigrating, Zhang Shi hasn't eaten a single grain of rice. What you can't have always seems more desirable. Looking at the golden rice seedlings in front of him, Zhang Shi couldn't help but swallow hard.

Zhao Feng also came over at this moment, his eyes gleaming.

"Hehe, the dumplings made with the fine-attribute flour you gave me last time, all my attributes increased a little after I ate them. This rice increases a single attribute, so it might increase my constitution quite a bit at once."

Zhang Shi put the obtained items back into the storage box, then with a wave of his hand, put five boxes into his backpack. This haul was quite fruitful; he had almost gathered enough materials to upgrade his shelter to level five. Because of the Eagle Gang incident, Zhang Shi discovered that his shelter's defenses still had flaws, and his anticipation for the fortress's completion grew even stronger.

"Don't just stand there. Every passing goose has its own treasures. Let's make full use of them."

After saying that, Zhang Shi took out Lao Duan and slashed it against the wall. The blade disappeared completely into the wall. Zhang Shi then made a forceful cut and, after a moment, cut out a neat piece of gold essence stone.

Zhang Shi tried it out and found that the cut-off gold essence stone could be put into his backpack, so he immediately called Zhao Feng to get started.

After a whole day of fussing, the two moved all the usable furniture and decorations out of the house. Zhang Shi, true to his word, completely demolished the shelter and took all the gold essence stones used as building materials.

The farmland outside was not spared either. Zhao Feng shoveled the high-quality soil into wooden buckets and carried it away, and even took away a lot of the water from the underground river.

"Hehe, this underground river has a considerable flow, so the water source problem is solved."

Zhang Shi nodded, looked up at the glowing boulder above, and sighed. That rock was clearly no ordinary object; it was a pity they couldn't work at heights, otherwise they would definitely have found a way to knock it down and take it away.

Zhang Shi and Zhao Feng returned to the shelter satisfied, handing over some of their spoils to Lao Bai to process and store the supplies. As for the Spirit Gathering Array Plate, Zhang Shi, having experienced the benefits of spiritual energy, placed it in his bedroom. He could sense a faint trace of spiritual energy throughout the entire shelter, indicating that the array plate was effective.

Pipi and the leopard were more sensitive to the changes in the sanctuary. They paced back and forth around the array plate, and finally lay down in Zhang Shi's bedroom, greedily absorbing the spiritual energy, unwilling to leave.

Zhang Shi then called Zhao Feng, and the two of them began cultivating the farmland before it got dark. After working for a while, they replaced the black soil they had brought back from the ruins with the new soil, and Zhang Shi suddenly had more than a dozen plots of high-quality farmland.

Finally, Zhang Shi planted all three golden rice seedlings in the field, watering and fertilizing them, eager to ripen the rice and enjoy its fragrant flavor.

In the evening, Xiaomei served two plates of delicate stir-fries, and the main dish was steamed buns filled with wild boar meat.

Zhang Shi took a bite, and you know what? The robot's cooking skills were truly impeccable. Every step of the cooking process was perfect, and the food tasted far better than Zhang Shi's.

Zhao Feng swallowed a meat bun in one gulp and asked vaguely.

"By the way, about the stone, I've always been curious whether this ruin is related to Huo Family Village. Why are there carvings and keys? I'm getting a little uneasy."

Zhang Shi also had some doubts about this. The key brought out from the dungeon could open the secret door of the ruins near the shelter, which was too much of a coincidence, as if it had been arranged by someone.

"Actually, I don't understand the situation either, but the result is good. We've made a fortune in one fell swoop. After everyone's strength increases in a while, we'll go back to Huo Family Village and wipe out those monsters all at once. Then there won't be any more hidden dangers."

Zhao Feng grabbed another meat bun, stuffed it into his mouth, and nodded.

"Yes, that makes sense."

After the two finished their meal, Lao Bai appeared and reported the situation at the shelter to Zhang Shi.

"Two hen chickens have successfully laid eggs, several sheep have shown signs of producing milk, and many vegetables in the garden have ripened again. Xiaomei and I have already picked them."

"The charcoal kiln has been firing square bricks, and the finished products are already piled up in the yard. As per your request, young master, the iron produced by the smelting furnace has been sorted by quality and stored in the warehouse."
