Chapter 35 Final preparations, the beast tide is coming!
Writing and drawing, Wen Ning's mind gradually became immersed.
The bonfire flames flickered, bringing a rare warmth to the shelter.
Outside the window, snow and wind mixed with black matter were raging, and soon covered the woods and grasslands.
The sky was very depressing, with dark clouds rolling and silently seeming to be getting lower and lower.
After putting down the final stroke, Wen Ning picked up the blank blueprint of the shelter.
【Shelter wall: iron wall 24/0】
"It's done!"
Wen Ning designed a U-shaped courtyard wall, and when the mutant beasts on the outermost edge rushed in, their way would be blocked by the wall.
Wen Ning only left one opening to allow these mutant beasts to pass through, and other than that, he left several dead ends.
This will help divert the mutant beasts.
Many places are designed with hinged doors, which only allow entry but not exit.
The passage became narrower and narrower as it went deeper, until at the end it was narrow enough for only one mutant beast to pass through.
Wen Ning’s inspiration came from a game he played before traveling through time, called Defend the Carrots!
【Cheng Dingkun 7777: Boss, I’m done! 】
[The other party initiates the transaction]
[Private chat channel: Thanks, prepare well for the beast tide, let me know if you need any supplies. 】
【Cheng Dingkun 7777: Don’t worry, big boss. My shelter’s rating is very low. I mainly rely on this mine, so I should be able to cope with it. 】
Wen Ning simply mentioned that the other party didn't need help and left him alone.
[Congratulations on obtaining Iron Ingot 120]
"This person..."
Sighing slightly, Wen Ning knew what Cheng Dingkun was thinking.
"We can only wait until the beast tide is over before we can give you some supplies."
There were less than 6 hours left before the beast tide arrived, and the snow outside the window was gradually getting heavier.
Wen Ning started to build the canopy.
Only after the construction of the canopy was completed did we dare to go out and build the courtyard wall.
Because the black matter has dropped too much.
An ordinary skylight only requires 1,000 units of wood, but for safety reasons, Wen Ning directly replaced them all with hardwood boards.
then......
Wen Ning opened the synthesis system again.
[Whether it is synthetic wood*4]
......
[Congratulations on getting hardwood*2]
[Congratulations on getting hardwood*2]
.......
[Congratulations on getting hardwood*2]
【bite! Trigger synthetic critical hit! Congratulations on getting the (Solid) attribute! 】
[Tip: Solid attribute, as the name suggests, facilities built with this wood will increase the solidity value of the shelter! 】
After two hours of synthesis, Wen Ning finally harvested hardwood*1000.
Among them, there are 234 pieces of hardwood with solid properties.
The synthesis took nearly an hour, and Wen Ning immediately started to build it.
Fortunately, it is a game, so construction is much easier.
“It would be much easier if we could build it directly in the system.”
However, Wen Ning also knew that this was wishful thinking. After all, this was still a survival game.
It took another hour to complete the construction of the canopy.
The wide canopy covers the entire shelter, including the yard.
Completely isolated from the wind and snow outside.
The pillars made of fine iron ingots were extremely strong and as thick as Wen Ning's calves.
The key corners along the mutant beasts' path planned by Wen Ning will not affect the construction of the courtyard wall.
The light is a little dim, but there are still many unused torches in Wen Ning's warehouse, which can be lit when the time comes.
Wen Ning cleaned up the snow in the yard.
After putting it in the backpack, I threw it out of the shelter.
It was not until he returned to the shelter that Wen Ning realized how powerful the snow was!
I saw that the originally smooth rubber surface of her rain boots was now covered with corrosion holes of various sizes.
Although it didn't penetrate deep inside, it still looked shocking.
If this corrodes your own skin...
Wen Ning's expression became serious. This snow is untouchable!
Throwing away the whole pair of rain boots showed that Wen Ning was very wealthy so he could afford to spend money like that.
Many survivors don’t even have a pair of rain boots and can only wrap themselves in plastic sheets.
After changing into new shoes, Wen Ning returned to the campfire and began to combine the remaining iron ingots into refined iron ingots.
[Congratulations on obtaining 50 refined iron ingots]
The construction of the skylight just now has consumed 10 units of refined iron ingots, and now Wen Ning only has 50 units of refined iron ingots available.
Simply building a fine iron wall only requires two units.
The fine iron ingots in Wen Ning's hand are more than enough!
But this time, there wasn't even a single critical hit during the synthesis.
Wen Ning had already noticed that it was more difficult to produce a critical hit with higher-level materials, so she didn't feel anything when it didn't happen.
[System Announcement: There are still 5 hours until the beast tide arrives! 】
The brief announcement was repeated three times, and Wen Ning's men moved even faster.
Although there were blueprints to guide him, it was also the first time for Wen Ning to build a maze-like courtyard wall.
It’s easy to talk about it on paper, but it’s different when it comes to actual practice.
In particular, the courtyard wall designed by Wen Ning not only has a blocking function, but also has the function of diversion and misleading.
The opening and closing direction of the hinged door, the location of the turns, the only exit, etc.
Wen Ning could only explore bit by bit.
After three full hours, Wen Ning finally put down the last piece of wall.
[The construction of the shelter design drawings has been completed and the blueprint will automatically disappear. 】
Wen Ning wiped the sweat from his forehead and took off his gloves, his palms were soaked.
“Building a house is not easy!”
【System Announcement: There are still 2 hours until the beast tide arrives! 】
【System Announcement: There are still 2 hours until the beast tide arrives! 】
【System Announcement: There are still 2 hours until the beast tide arrives! 】
The system’s third announcement, time is becoming increasingly urgent, and every word is striking at everyone’s heart.
Wen Ning rolled his eyes. The beast tide hasn’t arrived yet, but the timid ones will be scared to death by this system announcement!
Wen Ning focused on the shelter, and the shelter's information popped up.
[Shelter (): A solid fortress equipped with a powerful defense system, but to be honest, there are too many blind spots, so it is recommended to install surveillance. 】
【Completeness: 100】
[Strength value: 530]
[Aesthetics: 80]
【Facilities: 20】
The strength value increased from 280 to 530 in an instant!
Although there is no comprehensive rating, we can know that this shelter is definitely a powerful one among the shelters!
Wen Ning nodded in satisfaction.
With her sturdiness almost doubled, one can imagine the scale of the beast tide she will face tonight!
However, the gains will also be doubled.
It was already dark, and Wen Ning took out the torches left over from the last hunt for mutant cattle from the warehouse.
While installing the lighting, he carefully checked his courtyard wall.
Wen Ning had tried every route, and he had to deduce the direction of every hinged door in his mind.
After confirming that everything was correct, another hour passed.
Wen Ning took out some bread and ate it.
Now the walls and canopy have been built.
The weapons include spears and fine iron daggers, which can ensure close combat.
The only defense is a set of rattan wood armor, and the damage level is 20%.
Wen Ning pondered, what was still missing was a defensive shield!
It would be nice to have another ranged weapon.
Bow or crossbow.
Wen Ning can use it.
Wen Ning opened the trading channel. This time was definitely the best opportunity for all the powerful people to collect supplies!
