Lin Xu couldn't help but smile as he thought about how exciting things were.
After carefully considering Xiaoyu's abilities, Lin Xu realized that there was still one problem left.
That is, although Xiaoyu can control multiple ley line weapons, she still needs to use her perception abilities.
If Xiaoyu can only detect the enemy in front of her, then even if she can operate the machine gun at the bottom of the island, she still won't be able to hit the enemy.
Lin Xu then asked:
"Xiaoyu, your ability to multitask is very promising, but do you have the corresponding sensory abilities? You mean, the kind of ability that allows you to detect enemies from a distance?"
Xiaoyu thought for a moment and nodded:
“Xiaoyu can do it. I can manipulate the breeze and sense targets through airflow. Now I can sense any object within a five-kilometer radius of the island.”
"marvelous!"
Upon hearing this, Lin Xu couldn't help but break into a compliment and exclaim in praise.
Both he and Tao Yao possess life-related superpowers, so they both have an instinct to sense the life force of nearby creatures.
Therefore, upon seeing that Xiaoyu possessed special abilities, he also asked Xiaoyu if she had similar abilities.
In retrospect, his question was correct.
Xiaoyu indeed possesses a certain level of extraordinary perception.
Moreover, because her ability is based on the gentle breeze, this perception is even stronger than that of Lin Xu and Tao Yao.
It has a wide range of applications and can also be effective on inanimate objects.
With the ability to sense the surroundings through the breeze, coupled with the power to remotely control leyline weapons and launch barrage attacks, Xiaoyu's destructive power has now surpassed Taoyao's, making her the strongest on the island.
Lin Xu reached out and patted Xiaoyu's head again:
"Your abilities are excellent and will be of great use to the island's development!"
The island's cheeks flushed red, and it puffed out its chest with confidence.
She was very happy that she could be of use, and then continued:
“Master, even without the ability to sense air currents, as long as I have the materials, I can produce some surveillance equipment to monitor the area around the island and detect enemies. So please entrust the island's safety to me!”
Lin Xu's heart stirred.
"Production equipment?"
Lin Xu checked Xiaoyu's information again and discovered that a hidden piece of information had appeared on the elf:
This sprite possesses extraordinary computational abilities, thus exhibiting some mechanical talent, roughly equivalent to the combined abilities of ten Masters.
Lin Xu's eyelids twitched.
Ten mechanical masters combined?
Is this what you call "some" talent?
This talent is off the charts! It might even be better than his talent!
Lin Xu's mind raced, and he reached out to pick up Xiao Yu:
"Come, let's take a look at everyone's living quarters. Can you renovate and produce better houses?"
In the island world, to test someone's mechanical talent, besides using a testing device, you can give them a hammer and see what kind of house they can build.
Lin Xu had originally given up on his house-building skills, but unexpectedly, an elf appeared and could take over the job.
Xiaoyu blushed a little when Lin Xu picked her up, and her expression became somewhat strained.
But upon seeing the house, her little face gradually turned serious as she examined it from top to bottom.
At this moment, Lin Xu waved his hand and piled the peach wood and some other materials he had bought earlier at Xiao Yu's feet.
In addition, there was a wooden mallet that he had casually crafted earlier, which was also placed next to Xiaoyu.
"With these materials, see what kind of house you can build."
Xiaoyu nodded sullenly and observed and thought for about two minutes.
Then, she clenched one fist and placed it on her other hand:
"It's possible! I can double the size of the house, add more amenities, and upgrade the quality of the house by two levels!"
Lin Xu's eyes lit up upon hearing this.
Xiaoyu's talent for using machinery is indeed stronger than his.
With the materials he has, he can only upgrade the house by one and a half levels at most.
Lin Xu:
"Then the construction of the house will be your responsibility, Xiaoyu. It's best to finish it before dark. Also, the development and energy extraction of the ley lines will be your responsibility as well. If there is any surplus energy each day, it will all be given to you to extract into energy blocks. You can control 20% of these energy blocks, whether you use them for food or to collect them, it's all up to you."
Xiaoyu nodded seriously after hearing Lin Xu's words, but then paused slightly when she heard that she could also get the energy block herself.
"Master, may I have my own energy cube?"
Lin Xu smiled:
"This is the rule on my island, because you can make better use of these things when you control them yourself. For example, Tao Yao and the others can freely control most of the peaches."
Xiaoyu nodded blankly:
"Master, I will cherish these energy blocks. If you need them, you can take them away at any time. Xiaoyu is willing to help you!"
Lin Xu smiled and patted Xiao Yu's head.
Compared to Tao Yao's liveliness, Xiao Yu's serious and earnest demeanor was quite adorable, and his fondness for this elf increased greatly.
Xiaoyu blushed as Lin Xu touched her head, but she still squinted and enjoyed the head pat.
A moment later, after Lin Xu let go, Xiao Yu gradually came to her senses and began to work on the house with a hammer and carving knife.
She couldn't let her master down; she had to build the best house possible.
At this point, the wooden house was being hammered and constantly deformed, its shape gradually deviating from its original form.
Lin Xu glanced at the house with some anticipation.
Although the elves are simple-minded, they have always had a good sense of aesthetics. He imagines that the houses they create must be quite exquisite. He is looking forward to the time when Xiaoyu finishes building them.
For the next half day, Xu Long continued to eat peaches and read books.
Although Xiaoyu's talent for equipment surpasses his, and many equipment-related matters will definitely be handled by Xiaoyu in the future, Lin Xu does not want to give up his equipment learning.
After all, his talent is high enough, and having another expert in machinery would be more beneficial to the island's development, so it's not a waste of resources.
Now that the island can move, Xiaoyu, under Lin Xu's instructions, builds houses while maneuvering the island back and forth.
With Xiaoyu's ability to focus on five hundred things at a time, doing two things simultaneously is incredibly easy.
The current development of the island is such that whenever there is loose soil in the nearby area, Xiaoyu will fly the island over, and then Taoyao will use the telescopic pole to pull the loose soil over.
Using this method, the island territory increases rapidly, and both ocean blocks and forest blocks are gained.
Lin Xu even obtained some rock blocks, which were the same type of blocks below the Fountain of Life.
Although there might be more loose soil if they flew further away, Lin Xu did not let Xiao Yu fly the island too far.
Because Lin Xu was still waiting for Qin Liang and Zhao Tian to appear.
He estimated that with the level of support from the nobility, as long as Qin Liang and Zhao Tian knew his coordinates, they could find him within a day or two.
If he has already left by then, and we miss out on these two "fat sheep," then it would be a loss.
