=================
The max-level boss returned to the novice village, thinking it was a journey of cheating, but the reality was that it was the novice village of another game.
Lian Yun sighed, squatted down again to study it, and found a row of small words on the toolbox:
[Toolbox: Contains wooden ladder, stone hammer, saw, stone axe, and stone knife.]
Lian Yun unbuttoned the toolbox, and sure enough, the items were neatly arranged inside.
Lian Yun blinked.
She clicked on the skills again and found that the next skill after [Construction] had been unlocked: [Indestructible (Triggered): Houses repaired or built by the lord are granted an "Indestructible" buff (resistant to natural and malicious human damage).]
Oh wow, new moves are here!
Lian Yun curled the corners of his mouth.
So in order to avoid looking at the moon when she went to bed tonight, she had to do it herself.
Lian Yun climbed up to the roof of the store using a wooden ladder, braving the midday sun and taking every step with trepidation.
Place the wooden boards, fix the four corners with nails, and fill any gaps.
The amazing thing is that although Lian Yun didn’t quite understand, he seemed to be already familiar with the process in his mind, and his work went extremely smoothly.
Until it got dark, Lian Yun stopped what he was doing, looked at the obvious patches here and there, and fell silent.
This was her first time doing it herself, although she knew that a building built to the maximum level would be very sturdy.
But it's not just ugly.
"Maybe it will look better after applying new paint tomorrow..." Lian Yun remained calm.
Out of sight, out of mind, Lian Yun made a quick decision and chose to climb down the wooden ladder.
The sun was about to set, and only the faint light from Lian Yun's body illuminated a small area around him.
The night in the desert was exceptionally cold. The afterglow of the setting sun shone through the darkening clouds in the sky, casting a shadow on the lonely and dilapidated houses of varying heights.
Lian Yun stood in front of the store and looked around. There was only yellow sand and old houses. Everywhere revealed the desolation of dusk and desolation, and there was no sign of human life.
For the first time, she felt the loneliness and confusion of being alone in a strange world.
The cool evening breeze blew across his skin. Lian Yun rubbed his arms, looking a little lonely.
Now we can only make do under a dilapidated roof.
And her bedroom, her big bed, duvet, air conditioner... and the mousse cake in the refrigerator that she hadn't finished eating last night.
Everything seems to have just happened, yet it seems so far away.
His stomach suddenly growled, Lian Yun blinked quickly to hide the water that was about to fall, and raised his head to look at [Physical Strength].
Lian Yun felt hungry for the first time, and his physical strength was fixed at [5/10].
So an afternoon of physical labor consumed 3 points of her physical strength.
I don't know if her construction will reduce consumption when it reaches the maximum level.
She opened her backpack and fixed her eyes on the [Big Blood Bottle] and [Small Blood Bottle].
These two items are given in sufficient quantities, taking up four × 99 item slots, so they must be useful.
People will die when they are hungry to a certain extent, and blood bottles increase people's health.
To make an equivalent substitution, can the blood bottle replenish physical strength?
Just try it.
Lian Yun clicked on the [Small Blood Bottle] without saying a word, and a crystal clear round-bottomed glass bottle with a wooden cork instantly appeared in his hand.
She pulled out the cork and shook the bright red, smooth liquid in the bottle.
No special smell, sticky cup, good blood.
There was only a sip of liquid left in the bottle. Lian Yun drank it all and licked his lips, seeming to taste a hint of sweetness.
After she savored it, she also noticed that her hunger had significantly subsided.
When he looked up again, his stamina had become [10/10].
The blood bottle temporarily solved the problem of not starving to death. Although I still felt hungry, I wouldn't die.
But relying on drinking blood bottles to replenish physical strength is not a long-term solution.
The fact that this small town is uniquely located in the desert shows that it was once self-sufficient. Such a large open space in the southwest can be fully utilized and cultivated again.
Fortunately, she had enough blood bottles for her to find a solution.
Lian Yun slowly sat down against the door frame of the store and fell into deep thought again.
The first task is being completed so slowly, when can I go home?
Even if she had gaming equipment and skills, and even if she had no worries about resources, if she had to be alone...
Can we really live like this?
Although she really loves infrastructure.
Lian Yun bent his legs, slowly rested his head on his knees, tried to curl himself up into a ball, and sighed softly.
...I hope that real infrastructure games won’t be boring.
As if responding to her mood, the edge of the [Map] icon suddenly began to flash red crazily.
Lian Yun's expression changed and he quickly stood up from the ground.
Clicking on the [Map], I saw a small red dot moving slowly on a road leading to the altar.
She has bound the altar, so logically, no monsters nearby can enter the town's territory.
So this invader...is he human? Or some other species?
The dots on some flying gerbils were only a pale red, but now this one was a dazzling bright red.
Very dangerous.
Lian Yun's expression gradually became solemn.
…
Amidst the yellow sand, a figure holding a broken knife and trailing blood behind him was seen walking towards the town with heavy and slow steps.
The man looked like he had just emerged from hell, his body soaked in blood, his hair so tangled that it was almost impossible to tell its original color.
One of his eyes was tightly closed, and dark red blood was flowing out uncontrollably. There was dark red seeping from many parts of his face, and it seemed as if he would collapse from excessive blood loss at any time.
Looking down, I saw that his arms were wrapped in strips of cloth soaked in blood and stained with sand. I don’t know how long he had been walking and how many fierce battles he had experienced, but the clothes on his body could only barely cover his body.
The purple and red marks on the neck vaguely showed that a cloak had once been worn, but now only torn fabric remained.
His left leg was grabbed fiercely by something, and the cloth and flesh were torn off together, leaving blood and horrible white bones exposed.
"He's dragging something..." Lian Yun frowned and muttered.
Is this... a human?
Lian Yun squinted his eyes and tried to identify it, and couldn't help but gasp.
The upper body that was tied around the man's waist and dragged for an unknown distance clearly had a human-like skinny spine, but only a thin layer of waxy yellow skin-like substance tightly attached to the bones.
The creature's head had been chopped off, and the blood had almost dried up. The areas where the blood had clotted were covered with sand. It was unknown how long it had been dragged along.
Just a torso cannot tell whether it is a human or not.
But even so, it was the most extreme horror movie Lian Yun had ever seen since he was born.
"It's not a human." Lian Yun suppressed his nausea and looked for a long time before finally recognizing it.
This is the "Bone Gorilla", a humanoid monster with initial intelligence, agile movements, and rarely acts alone.
So it is very likely that he escaped from the siege of several bone apes.
The man hung this torso around his waist to intimidate other bone apes and intelligent monsters.
Lian Yun frowned, unsure whether he should rescue such a dangerous person.
Normally, at a time like this, having an extra helper would be a huge help, especially since this person looked very strong. However, this person's situation...
Regardless of whether the other party's current condition can still be used by Lian Yun, just considering that this person is full of murderous aura, Lian Yun's own safety may not be guaranteed after rescuing him.
The man didn't know when he had walked to a place not far from the altar and stopped.
Lian Yun stared at him closely, and saw the man slowly raise his head, revealing his other intact eye.
This turquoise eye was crystal clear, revealing a silence that was inconsistent with his solemn temperament.
Eyes like these hardly make people feel a sense of crisis, but Lian Yun did not dare to take it lightly.
After all, the one who can kill the bone ape is no ordinary person.
Lian Yun silently watched the eyes flash with numbness and fatigue after fighting day and night. As Lian Yun watched, his heart suddenly stopped.
She could see that the man had reached his limit.
If she wanted to save him, she wasn't sure if it was worth it; but if she wanted to subdue him, she couldn't take advantage of him in this state.
However, the next second, his body could no longer support itself and began to shake.
The man took a deep breath and raised his head with difficulty. His gaze fell on the altar in front of him. His eyes were surprisingly firm.
Lian Yun couldn't help but take a few steps forward.
The man noticed her presence almost at the same time and turned his head to look at Lian Yun.
The moment he saw Lian Yun, the confusion in the man's eyes suddenly transformed into an indescribable light.
"You..." The man opened his mouth, but could only utter a short syllable from his dry throat.
Lian Yun didn't think much about it. He could only be more vigilant and walked over under his strange gaze. As he walked, he brainstormed how to trick the man first.
The man watched Lian Yun slowly approach, the light in his blue eyes becoming brighter and brighter. When she was a few meters away from him, the man suddenly knelt down on one knee.
He used up his last bit of strength to stab the broken knife in his hand into the crack in the ground for temporary support.
"My God, you are finally here." The man's voice was hoarse and extremely pious.
He raised his injured left arm, placed it on his right chest, and slowly performed the highest level of worship.
Lian Yun watched the man lower his head. Even though he couldn't see his gaze, he could still feel his unquestionable sincerity as he spoke.
Lian Yun paused.
"You're... talking to me?"
