Seeing that the bloodstains on the ground had been cleaned up by the sweeper, Lin Ruo naturally knew that the bearskin curtain at the door also needed to be cleaned. Before that, she needed to quickly make a change of clothes.
I looked up at the wall clock in the living room; it showed that it was already five o'clock in the morning, but the sky outside the window was still pitch black.
Remembering that the three of them hadn't eaten properly yesterday, she decided to prepare breakfast for them before starting their training.
After a regular three-hour physical training session, Lin Ruo stopped. Her chest rose and fell slightly, and she still had energy left. It seemed she would have to push herself even harder to achieve the desired training effect.
She sat cross-legged on the ground and began to cultivate her mental power. A palm-sized water ball appeared in each of her hands. Lin Ruo's mental power was already terrifying. Normally, it would take longer and longer to completely deplete it. This was a new method she had found. She began to carve ice sculptures on both hands at the same time, and the ice sculptures she carved had to be different in order to achieve double the consumption.
What used to take an hour and a half to deplete her mental energy, this time only took 40 minutes before Lin Ruo could no longer hold on. Her face turned pale and her head throbbed with pain!
She picked up a dozen or so level-one crystal cores placed beside her and began cultivating her supernatural abilities.
The blue light of water-based superpowers and the white light of spatial superpowers flickered alternately on Lin Ruo's body. More than an hour later, Lin Ruo finally opened her eyes, looking refreshed.
Lin Ruo turned to look at the clock on the wall of the training room. Even though she accelerated the consumption of her mental energy, this training still took more than five hours. It seems that she still needs to study new training methods so that she can achieve the training effect in a short time.
She got up and went to her bedroom to take a hot shower, feeling completely relaxed inside and out, before walking into the living room.
It was already 10 a.m., so she didn't need to eat breakfast anymore. She just took out two pieces of bread and a carton of milk from her space and ate a little something.
The living room floor was spotless. Lin Ruo noticed the bloodstained bearskin curtain and knew she needed to replace it quickly.
She used her spiritual power to enter the space again, and searched through the still space until she found the wolf pelt she had hunted earlier. The wolf fur on it was thick, drought-resistant, and sturdy, perfect for making a door curtain.
Following the previous production process, Lin Ruo selected three wolf skins this time, repeatedly tanning them with water to wash away all the impurities and bacteria. When making the curtain, she also made some improvements, and the wolf skin curtain she made was much more beautiful than the bear skin curtain.
When Lin Ruo took the curtain out of her spatial storage, Afu and Ashou were dozing in the living room. The fortress gate hadn't been closed the night before, so they hadn't slept. Now they were relaxed and sleepy.
She didn't call them up to use as ladders; instead, she used her water-based abilities to create ice steps beneath her feet. She climbed up them, first taking down the bearskin curtain, and then hanging the wolfskin curtain on the 6-meter-high door frame.
After hanging it up, she leaped down the ice steps, landing lightly. She looked at the wolf-skin curtain in front of her with satisfaction. Once her skills improved a bit more, she would be able to make clothes for herself. She had been envious of the snow fox that Ashou had hunted last time, with its glossy and smooth fur.
Now is the perfect season to wear fur coats; once the extreme cold is over, it will be a long time before we can wear them again.
She then checked the fireplaces in various parts of the fortress, added firewood, and then turned and sat on the sofa, immersing her mental energy into the space.
She took out a used crystal core shell from the still space. Last time, she had a flash of inspiration: if she could make glass from such a hard crystal core, she would never have to worry about her windows being so weak again.
She used her spatial abilities to continuously raise the temperature around the crystal core. Since the last time she smelted underground ore, Lin Ruo had learned that the highest temperature that space could achieve was 5000 degrees. However, after the crystal core shell was placed under a high temperature of 5000 degrees for half an hour, it only softened a little bit.
"Is it that hard?!"
Lin Ruo couldn't believe it—this was 5000 degrees Celsius! Even the impurities in the underground ore were vaporized, yet the crystal core shell only softened slightly!
However, this is also good news. At least she knows that when her spatial ability is upgraded next time, she will be able to melt the crystal core shell.
The glass she most desires is still something she might be able to use.
Lin Ruo spent her time at home researching various medicinal herbs and underground minerals. Time flew by, and nearly two months had passed in the blink of an eye.
"Old Li, are you sure there's a warehouse supermarket here?"
"Yes, I saw it when I passed by here a couple of days ago."
On the frozen streets of City B, a group of nine people were cautiously making their way forward, each carrying a weapon, with some even holding pistols.
They are survivors from the B City base who spontaneously formed a team to search for supplies.
The extreme cold has now lasted for nearly two months, and most of the survivors in the city have gone to the B City base, leaving only a small number of people in the city.
Due to the rapid increase in the number of survivors, the B City base changed its recruitment rules a month ago. Survivors must now pay a certain amount of supplies to enter the B City base.
As the base in City B was completed, there was less and less work to be done there, and the points they could earn were no longer enough for ordinary residents to live on. They had no choice but to form survivor teams to search for supplies.
Within two months, many shops in B City that were open to the public had all been moved out.
"Crunch, crunch"
As they passed a house, several mutated insects, each about half the size of a palm, suddenly rushed out and were stomped to death on the spot by the group of quick-thinking individuals.
"For some reason, there are more and more bugs these days," the person who stepped on a bug looked at the sole of his shoe with disgust, which was covered in the bug's green slime.
