āAnother skill that consumes mental strength.ā
Song Jian glanced at the description of the comprehended Bonfire Technique, which consumed a little mental strength instead of requiring fire-starting materials, making it more convenient. Otherwise, every time he used the Bonfire Technique, he would have to find fire-starting materials. These materials would disappear after each use, making them quite inconvenient. Now that they were replaced with mental strength, it was a good thing for Song Jian.
However, the two skills that consumed mental strength were only auxiliary skills, which was somewhat disappointing.
āSince there are two bonfires, might as well take this opportunity to clear out the cooking materials in my bagā¦ā
For Song Jian, sixteen slots in the bag were just too small. At this moment, he suddenly thought of Li Keāerās safe, which was a large storage item with thirty-six slots. Some unnecessary items could be put in there;
āIām so enviousā¦ Why do I only have a radio? I donāt know what itās for. Should I use it to send a distress signal?ā Song Jian glanced at the radio that had been lying quietly in his bag and couldnāt help but sigh.
He skewered a piece of zombie meat with a wooden stick and placed it on the bonfire to roast. Soon, a faint fragrance wafted out.
System: You have successfully cooked a piece of āRoasted Meatā, increasing your Cooking Skill experience points by 150 points, and comprehending the recipe for āRoasted Meatā.
āRoasted Meat (white): Food, Usage effect: Increases hunger level by 30 points 10 seconds after use when not in combat, restores 3 vitality points per second for 15 seconds.ā
Song Jianās eyes lit up; this roasted meat had a good attribute. It could restore 45 vitality points at once, so he no longer needed to worry about being picked off by others after battles due to low vitality.
After spending more than three hours, all the meat in the bag was cooked into roasted meat, freeing up a few more slots.
As time passed, the bonfireās burning degree slowly diminished. When the last bit of burning degree was consumed, the once blazing bonfire visibly weakened rapidly and eventually extinguished, turning into a wisps of blue smoke, leaving only a pile of charred ashes on the ground.
At this point, it was already dawn, and all monsters seemed to be returning to their hideouts like tired birds, seeking the dark and cold corners. The entire city fell into dead silence.
āItās time to complete the main mission.ā Song Jian looked at the rising sun and thought to himself.
Back then, the first player who created a safe house chose to do so at night. They probably didnāt know that when creating a safe house it would cause a disturbance of monsters within a one-kilometer radius. During the nighttime, monstersā attributes would return to normal, but during the day, their attributes would be halved.
Put simply, creating a safe house during daylight would have a difficulty reduced by half compared to creating it at night.
Song Jian stood up and stared at the entire villa. Soon, a light green border appeared in his sight.
At first, the border covered only the living room of the villa, and a prompt appeared in front of his eyes.
System: Do you want to create a safe house? Requires 300 units of wood and 250 units of stone.
Song Jian thought, and the green border began to expand from the original single living room, extending to the entire villa.
System: Do you want to create a safe house? Requires 3500 units of wood and 3000 units of stone.
Song Jian hesitated for a moment before continuing to expand the green border until it covered the entire courtyard, the wall, and even extended nearly a meter outward along the wall before finally choosing to confirm.
System: Is your selection finalized? Creating the safe house requires 5000 units of wood and 4100 units of stone.
It was a good thing that the walls had already been upgraded to a mix of level three wooden walls and level one stone walls, otherwise, the materials required for creating the safe house now would be even more.
The āconfirmā option in front of him kept flashing, reminding Song Jian to make a choice.
This choice was a matter of life and death. Song Jian gritted his teeth and selected āconfirmā.
Boom-
A dull sound seemed to come from under the villa, and monsters within a one-kilometer radius all let out an angry roar. Most of the sleeping monsters gradually awoke, opening their scarlet eyes and looking in the direction of Song Jianās villa.
A thick green beam of light descended from the sky, enveloping the area Song Jian had chosen. freewebnove(l)
Daytime was when most players ventured out. At this moment, all players saw the thick, towering green light beam, and almost everyoneās face wore an expression of surprise.
At the beginning, the first player to create a safe house had failed, and many people had seen it. Even if they hadnāt seen it with their own eyes, they would hear about it from others afterward. Now, seeing someone attempting to create a safe house and complete the main mission, almost all players immediately abandoned their current tasks and rushed towards the direction of the green light beam.
āHey, another fearless player. It seems the previous lesson wasnāt enough; they must experience it firsthand!ā
āWe all have the same main mission. It doesnāt matter if you stick your neck out or not, better to die early and reincarnate earlyā¦ā
āHow big an area do you think this guy chose for his safe house? Iāve only gathered over six hundred units of wood and less than five hundred units of stone so farā¦ā
āJudging by the size of the light beam, the area of the safe house he chose wouldnāt be small. Letās hurry over and take a lookā¦ā
In just a few minutes, hundreds of players had gathered around Song Jianās villa, forming small groups and whispering among themselves.
āKeāer, is Brother Song preparing to create a safe house?ā Wang Qi looked at the now-familiar villa and asked the young girl beside him with a surprised face.
āIt should be. Little Cheap Brother didnāt even tell meā¦ā Keāer bit her lips as though she was unhappy. Her eyes, filled with worry, were fixed on the villaās direction.
āCreating a safe house is very dangerous. Even if he told you, you wouldnāt be able to help him.ā Wang Qi shook his head and said.
āWho says 1 canāt help Little Cheap Brother? Hmph!ā Keāer took out her crossbow and shot at a swaying mutant zombie walking towards the villa.
Pft-
A semi-transparent light arrow hit the zombieās head, instantly killing it and turning it into a pile of black ash.
āCount me in, haha, these monsters are so stupid. Their hatred must have been drawn by Brother Song. This is the perfect opportunity to kill more monsters and level up!ā Wang Qiās eyes glinted with excitement, and he laughed.
Some clever players around also took advantage of this opportunity to start hunting monsters. Hunting at this time was virtually risk-free. However, most players remained indifferent, staring emotionlessly at the green light beam.
At this time, Song Jian had no energy to pay attention to other players. He was fully focused on the transformation interface, trying to create the safe house as perfectly as possible.
