Rubbing his swollen head, Tang Yu sighed softly.
Building the city wall was a lot more troublesome than he thought.
In the past, the system building was automatically built by specifying the location and consuming materials.
But the city wall was different. A whole city wall was a combination of countless' unit walls'. The consumption during the construction of the city wall was also determined by the number of 'unit walls'.
He had a stock of Origin Crystals, but the consumption of stones was extremely high. If it weren't for the basic puppets that were responsible for the demolition work, and if he only relied on the survivors and didn't have enough tools, he might not be able to build such a wall even after another week.
However, the problem wasn't the consumption, but the designated location.
Usually, when building a building, Tang Yu stood next to the construction site and didn't feel anything. But when building the city wall, the scope of the city wall was so wide that no matter where he stood, there was always a place that he couldn't see. Tang Yu simply stood on the castle's top balcony and controlled the construction of the city wall by remote control.
It was a wonderful feeling, as if he was standing on a higher point of view, overlooking and feeling the territory.
As a result, Tang Yu felt a little dizzy.
Was it because he didn't have enough spirit power? It seemed he had to take it easy in the future.
… …
Tang Yu was building the city wall while Roger beheaded the invading demonic beast.
Elaine's face was also solemn at this time.
She held a kitchen knife in her hand and stared at the ingredients in front of her.
These ingredients weren't the batch that Wang Tai had hidden, but the top ingredients that Tang Yu opened from the ingredient resource pack. They were rich in variety. Flying in the sky, swimming in the water, running on the ground, as well as vegetables and fruits, everything.
Elaine was stunned when she saw these ingredients for the first time.
She hadn't even heard of such ingredients, let alone seen them. She once heard that the nobles in the inner city had sumptuous food when they held a banquet. But even a banquet didn't have this many ingredients.
She was a little nervous that the Lord would hand over such precious ingredients to her.
This was her task. Elaine was even more serious about this matter than dealing with the demonic beast.
She opened the cookbook book on the side. She had read the cooking books given by the Lord several times in the past two days. She only felt it was broad and profound.
Although she was self-reliant before, there were no ingredients for her to cook. She studied very seriously.
In the kitchen, Elaine followed the cooking steps in the book. Although it was her first time, her movements were not slow.
Soon, plates of dishes were placed on the dining table.
When Tang Yu went downstairs, he saw Elaine, who was wearing a plain white T-shirt and shorts with a cyan apron on her chest. She was standing at the dining table like a girl next door.
Compared to when they first met, Elaine was more lively and cheerful now. She would smile from time to time, but she was still a little reserved. She had to wait for him to sit down first before she was willing to sit at the dining table.
The dishes on the table were very sumptuous. Although they were just ordinary home-cooked dishes, they looked, smelled, and tasted great. Before he even got close, he could smell the fragrance lingering at the tip of his nose.
This was the best dish Tang Yu had ever seen since the doomsday. He couldn't believe that Elaine, who only learned for two days and cooked for the first time, could make such a delicious dish.
This talent … could go to the battlefield, go to the kitchen, and occasionally act as an air conditioner to cool down the temperature. In contrast, he could only cook instant noodles. Tang Yu was ashamed.
"Hmm, this red braised pork is not bad …"
Tang Yu ate a piece and looked at Elaine's thin figure. He took a few more pieces.
In fact, he wanted to call Roger over. But Roger was probably the busiest person in the shelter. After his physical recovery, his whole energy was devoted to the territory. Every day, he went out early and returned late to fight the demonic beasts. Although Tang Yu also sent food to Roger, it didn't matter to him what he ate.
Before the doomsday, he would be a workaholic who forgot to eat and sleep.
Both of them were hunters. A hunter's appetite was higher than ordinary people. Usually, it was fine if they didn't consume much. But once in a fierce battle, hunters needed to consume more energy to replenish their own consumption.
The dishes on the table were quickly wiped out.
Elaine's expression was very happy. Even though she had cooked it herself, she couldn't describe it without tasting it. She had never imagined that one day, she would be able to eat such delicious food.
She felt that she was very lucky to be here.
Tang Yu felt very happy.
In the doomsday, living in a safe castle and eating delicious food was something that even the leaders of small shelters couldn't enjoy.
… …..
After dinner, both of them had their own tasks.
There was no need to go out to explore at night. Elaine also made full use of the time to improve her strength. In addition to refining her spirit power, what she did every day was reading the broken spell book.
Tang Yu had also read this book. But for him, this book was tantamount to a heavenly book. It's not that he didn't know the words. In fact, this kind of spell book didn't use ordinary words, but words that could carry special power.
This kind of words was very unique and difficult to copy, which also led to the scarcity of spell books. Similarly, reading this kind of book didn't need to know the words. The key was whether you could understand it or not.
Obviously, Tang Yu didn't have that kind of talent.
He never counted on his own talent. Anyway, his talent wasn't enough to make up for a cheat. With a cheat, could talent be eaten?
Recently, Tang Yu didn't hunt demonic beasts. Anyway, his combat power was average in the team. But after thinking about it, he gave up. Going out to hunt was too much of a waste of time. In contrast, there were more things to do in the territory.
For example, strengthening the foundation of a shelter.
Now the territory had a city wall. The height of ten meters was enough to block most of the demonic beasts. Coupled with the system's products, the city wall was hard enough to resist the demonic beasts and even the demonic wave. A basic defense line had been formed.
Now Tang Yu had to prepare the awakening device.
This thing could be said to be the standard of the shelter. On the one hand, the awakening device increased the survivors' awakening rate, so that the shelter had more hunters. On the other hand, the production of the awakening device may not be difficult for the shelter, but it was difficult for ordinary survivors to make it.
Tang Yu also knew the production method. It wasn't a secret.
In the early doomsday, before the communication was cut off, some scientists had developed a method to promote ordinary people's awakening. This method was soon announced by the authorities. Because of the awakening device, many small shelters with weak defenses survived the repeated attacks of demonic beasts.
This simple awakening device was a headband.
Tang Yu took out ten spirit stones with a similar energy value. This was the first material for the awakening headband. Just these ten spirit stones could stump many survivor teams.
In order to improve the quality of the headband, he used a spirit stone with an energy value of 2. This spirit stone could condense in the body of a double awakening demonic beast.
There were also demonic beast blood, bones, and other materials. He also took them from high-ranking demonic beasts.
Tang Yu soaked the spirit stone in his blood for at least three hours. Then he selected a suitable bone, carved it into a ring-shaped head, and dug out ten holes for the spirit stone to be inlaid with.
He didn't know how to carve it. Anyway, he didn't care about aesthetics. Tang Yu was busy for a long time, looking at the bone in his hand that could barely see the headband, he felt a sense of accomplishment.
It's just that the process was a bit weird, like a cult ritual. Tang Yu understood that human scientists' research on demonic beasts and spirit stones was still very shallow. It's already amazing that they could use it properly. Why pay attention to the image? That's impossible.
Such a simple awakening device was also flawed. Not everyone with the awakening talent could awaken with the help of the awakening headband. It was just a matter of probability, but it was relatively high.
According to Tang Yu's own understanding, only those with enough talent could awaken naturally without the help of external forces. Maybe as time goes by, more and more survivors would awaken. But obviously, many people couldn't wait until that time. The awakening headband was achieved through some kind of stimulation mechanism to achieve the purpose of awakening.
"I can give this headband to Old Chen and let him do as he sees fit. The rules will follow the rules of most shelters. After all, it will consume spirit stone energy, and it's impossible to give it to survivors for free."
Survivors could either pay spirit stones or sign a contract with the shelter to use the awakening headband. If they didn't awaken, they would still be a bottom level survivor. But once awakened, they had to serve the shelter unconditionally.
Even so, survivors still flocked to the headband. Compared to the temptation of becoming a hunter, everything else was nothing.
In order to become stronger, since they couldn't afford it, they would sell their bodies.
After finishing the awakening headband, Tang Yu was about to draw a blueprint covering the entire territory. Suddenly, he noticed something was wrong. He took a closer look and saw several red dots appeared in the territory.
These red dots were slowly moving.
They came from the entrance of the resort villa.
