The next day, the sky was bright. A faint golden light shone through the clouds.
Tang Yu sat cross-legged on the bed and slowly opened his eyes.
The first half of the night was spent in sleep.
The inside and outside of the castle were like two different worlds. The outside was a mess, and the stench of all kinds of corpses. Even if he was used to this kind of life, he still didn't feel good.
Inside the castle, it was different.
The air was exceptionally fresh, more refreshing than the fresh air in the lush forest. The temperature was also very suitable. It was summer outside, even the night seemed sultry. But staying in the castle didn't feel this way at all. It was fresh, cool, and comfortable with a big bed. All of this gave Tang Yu an excellent quality of sleep. Coupled with the hunter's stronger resilience, the day's tiredness had been recovered in just four or five hours of sleep.
The second half of the night was spent in cultivation.
In other words, refining the spirit power.
The refining of spirit power was very fast. But after a whole day, Tang Yu absorbed a little too much spirit power. It was obviously a spirit power without a texture, but he inexplicably had the illusion of being full. So it took him a lot of time to refine all of it and transform it into his own strength.
"I already have the strength of the peak of the First Awakening Stage. As long as I absorb enough spirit power, I can use this to break through and enter the Second Awakening Stage. Even those with high qualifications can't compare to this speed."
This was a matter of course. No matter how high the qualifications of others were, they had to rely on real swords and guns to improve their strength. But for him, it was a complete cheat. With the equivalent of a Fifth Awakening Stage hunter, and the kind that didn't steal spirit power, how could his improvement speed not be fast?!
After breakfast.
Tang Yu changed into the workshop's latest equipment, a shiny fine steel longsword and a black one-piece combat suit with red stripes on it.
Wearing this combat suit was very comfortable. At first, he thought that wearing this on such a hot day would be a little too hot, but reality proved that the black technology of the workshop was extraordinary. The combat suit was light and breathable, and even when he moved his body, there was a very smooth and natural feeling.
Coupled with the crimson demonic beast's fur as the material, its defensive ability was unparalleled. Even a fine steel longsword had to work hard to cut a small hole in the combat uniform. This was the difference in materials. After all, the basic longsword was made of ordinary iron.
Tang Yu compared it to the mirror in the castle and was very satisfied with the combat suit.
"I just think it's a little coquettish."
…
The survivors all woke up early. They had tasted the sweetness of the food. Relying on their work to exchange for a generous amount of food, these people were also very happy. Among the food exchanged yesterday, there were actually two cans of meat. Many survivors were so happy that they cried. They didn't know how long it had been since they tasted meat.
"It's leader Tang!"
Someone shouted, then suddenly rubbed his eyes.
In the distance, there were still three familiar figures. Tang Yu was in front, followed by the armored master and the girl they saw yesterday. However, apart from the armored master, they almost didn't recognize Leader Tang and the girl who could emit icicles!
In the distance, Leader Tang was wearing a black and red striped combat suit, with a long sword on his waist, shining in the sun.
Behind Leader Tang, the armored master was like a loyal and responsible guard, carrying a long spear and silently following him.
On the other side, Elaine was also wearing a black robe with red patterns. Her hood covered her face, and the loose robe covered her small body. Her hand stretched out from the cuffs of her sleeves, tightly grasping a spiral branch that was wide at the top and narrow at the bottom. That's a staff!
The three of them walked over slowly.
Around them, there were dead demonic beast corpses that hadn't been cleaned up, dried blood, and damaged houses.
The scorching sun hanging high in the sky seemed to rise from behind the three people.
At this moment, it seemed that the world had lost its color, leaving only the three slowly walking figures in their eyes.
"Gulp."
Some people couldn't help but swallow their saliva.
This kind of attire was like the costume of a cosplay character in a comic exhibition. In this doomsday, it was obviously gaudy. Obviously, it was inconvenient to wear it. But when Leader Tang and the other two wore it, everyone felt it was very harmonious, as if everything was supposed to be like this.
And Leader Tang and the other two were like glorious warriors who returned from a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood.
… …
Even if they were surprised by such equipment, the survivors were very responsible. What should be asked, what shouldn't be asked. Soon, one by one they received their work and left.
Chen Haiping didn't leave.
The porter's job was very well-paid, but Chen Haiping didn't want to wait for death.
He became a hunter late, but step by step, his strength steadily improved. He was also ranked among the hunters in the shelter. However, the demonic wave attack and the destruction of the shelter made him realize how weak he was. In the face of a real disaster, he was powerless.
After seeing the powerful strength of Leader Tang and the other masters, Chen Haiping was more eager to become stronger.
He wanted to hunt demonic beasts!
He also hoped to make a contribution to the establishment of the shelter!
He hoped that the shelter could be established. However, he understood that a shelter couldn't only rely on a few masters. His strength might not be strong, but as a combatant, the contribution he could make was at least more than carrying some stones.
Chen Haiping said these words and quietly waited for Leader Tang's reply.
Tang Yu also fell into deep thought.
At first, he didn't think so much. A few days ago, he was still a low-level survivor, struggling to survive in this doomsday. In the beginning, he had only built a castle to protect his life. However, in order to develop a territory, detailed planning was needed. Even with the help of the System, buying things and building things was not enough to build a complete territory.
Chen Haiping's statement was reasonable. The territory map could give an early warning when a demonic beast attacked. However, it was impossible to rely on No. 1, No. 2, and his followers every time. The masters should be the territory's trump card, not a conventional force. Tang Yu hoped that his followers would have time to improve their strength in the future.
What's more, if the territory wanted to develop, survivors were indispensable. When the number of survivors increased in the future, whether it was defense or management, they needed some trustworthy people.
The territory should have a patrol team as a regular force.
After two days of observation, he also had a certain understanding of Chen Haiping. This person was a soldier, good marksmanship, good combat skills. He had a bottom line and a conscience, but he didn't follow the rules. The most important thing was that on the territory map, Chen Haiping's dot was a green dot. That was enough.
"I agree to your request. Now the shelter hasn't been built yet, and there's no specific job arrangement. Usually, you should patrol more to guard against demonic beast attacks and improve your strength. After all, with the strength of the first awakening stage, you can only deal with the most common demonic beast."
Chen Haiping smiled bitterly. He really couldn't refute this. Then he heard Leader Tang said, "Well, I'll find you a master, and you can learn some skills to deal with demonic beast."
Master?
He wondered. Was it an armored master? If he could learn from an armored master, there was no doubt that his strength would improve rapidly in a short time.
