The night was silent.
In a relatively intact villa, several survivors were sitting together by the light of the fire.
"Do you think those two people really want to build a shelter here?"
"Don't joke around. It's not that easy to build a shelter. Besides, there are only two of them. So what if they're strong? Building a shelter isn't just about strength."
"Forget about those two people. Let's think about ourselves. What should we do? It's not safe here. Why don't we go to Lindong shelter? It's a large shelter with an army stationed there. As long as we go there, we don't have to worry about demonic beast attacks anymore."
Someone suggested, but the others weren't optimistic.
"Lindong shelter is indeed a good place, but how are we going to get there? It's 60 kilometers away from here, and it's a straight line distance. If it's easy to get to Lindong shelter, I wouldn't have chosen to stay in this small shelter. "
As soon as the words came out, the others looked depressed.
They thought they were safe hiding in the underground cold storage, but they were almost killed by a demonic beast. If it weren't for those two masters passing by …
Someone suddenly said, "If those two masters also went to Lindong shelter, then we can also follow them."
"Hmph, they want to build a shelter. Why would they go to Lindong? Even if they go there, they may not take us with them. I think it's better to think of a way to go to a smaller shelter that is closer."
"But why can't we stay here? Those two masters clearly said that as long as we stay in this villa area, they can guarantee our safety."
However, only a few people believed this.
In their minds, there were only two people on Tang Yu's side, and they were nowhere to be seen. Not to mention if the two masters would come to their rescue if they were in danger. Even if they did, they might not be able to make it in time. The reason why they were not optimistic about the two masters building a shelter was because there were too few people. No matter how strong they were, they couldn't take care of everything.
In fact, they also understood that there was no reason to ask others to protect them. However, rationally and emotionally, everyone hoped that someone could save them in the face of danger.
This was just human survival instinct.
In the end, Chen Haiping ended the topic, "Instead of thinking about these things, it's better to practice spear skills and sword skills. Even if you can't awaken, you can at least give yourself a better chance of survival."
The candle on the table emitted a faint light, gently swaying.
Chen Haiping wiped his weapon and was about to say something when his expression suddenly changed.
"Be careful!"
Chen Haiping immediately grabbed the hilt of his machete and looked out of the French windows of the villa with a grave expression.
Two specks of green light were extremely terrifying in the dark night.
"It's a demonic beast!" Someone panicked.
"Didn't they say that the demonic beasts in this area have been cleared?" Someone was puzzled.
"I knew it. They only have a few people. How could they guard against the demonic beasts? The demonic beasts wander around. Without a strong city wall and a complete line of defense, there's no safe place to rest!"
Chen Haiping didn't speak. He just waved his hand to signal the others to step back. He knew this thin floor-to-ceiling window couldn't stop the demonic beast.
Suddenly … Boom!
The entire villa shook violently, and the candles fell to the ground with a clatter.
Some people didn't know what happened, and some people screamed in horror. Only Chen Haiping, who had been staring at the demonic beast, could barely see a figure descending from the sky and trampling the demonic beast to the ground.
Chen Haiping finally saw it clearly. It was the mysterious armored master from the afternoon. He trampled the demonic beast to death with one foot.
The others also gasped. They didn't see the process, but the result … such a terrifying demonic beast was trampled to death like a bug.
Several people's expressions were complicated. Just now, they didn't trust Tang Yu and spoke ill of him behind his back. They thought the other party was just using them as labor and didn't care about their lives. But now …
As soon as the demonic beast appeared, it was trampled to death by the armored master. They couldn't see the armored master's face, but the figure's back was firmly reflected in their eyes, indelible.
Puppet No. 2, who was responsible for guarding the territory, didn't leave. Instead, he pulled out a long spear from his back and stabbed it into the grass not far away.
The spear was like thunder!
Swift and violent!
The people in the villa hadn't reacted yet. They saw a small demonic beast skewered on the tip of the spear like a barbecue.
There was a demonic beast hidden in it!
Many survivors had a lingering fear. They didn't know what kind of demonic beast it was. They just felt that this world was too dangerous.
But Chen Haiping couldn't move his eyes away from it!
It was a spiky insect!
Known as the assassin in the night!
The reason why Chen Haiping knew about it was because the strongest hunter in the shelter was killed by a spiky insect. If that metahuman hadn't used his ability to perish together with the spiky insect before he died, that spiky insect alone would have been enough to destroy their defense line.
But such a spiky insect couldn't resist. It was like a barbecue skewered on a long spear.
Chen Haiping's breath quickened, his eyes widened. The shock he experienced today was more than what he experienced in the past month.
Puppet No. 2 dragged the spiky insect and disappeared into the night, leaving the survivors with their eyes wide open and speechless for a long time.
After a few minutes, these people slowly recovered from the shock.
"We … survived?"
"Yeah." Someone looked at the direction where No. 2 disappeared with a guilty look, "Maybe … we shouldn't have doubted them. Remember what they said. As long as we stay here and work for them, they can guarantee our safety and provide us with enough food. I think maybe we can stay here."
"Yeah, it's the same wherever we go in this doomsday. At least we can eat our fill if we stay here."
… …..
On the territory map, two red dots slowly dissipated. On the side, several yellow dots representing neutral flashed several times and finally turned into green dots representing their side.
Green dots didn't mean those people had unreservedly trusted him. Trust between doomsday survivors wasn't easy to come by. But this kind of change represented a certain degree of recognition.
That's enough!
Tang Yu came to the open space behind the castle. At his feet, piles of waste wood were piled up. This afternoon, after the survivors finished transporting the food, they transported it to the villa area and then transported it through No. 1 and No. 2.
"Finally, we can build the first territory building."
The Lord's Castle wasn't a real territory building, but the core of the territory linked to the territory level. At this time, it was already the second day he got the system, and he only had enough resources to build the first building. Tang Yu felt it was too slow. Fortunately, he met these survivors. Otherwise, he would have to sacrifice No. 1 and No. 2's time to hunt demonic beasts to do the transportation work. God knows how long it would take.
He opened the building panel and selected the tavern.
Build!
"Ding dong! Building a tavern consumes 200 units of spirit stones and 100 units of wood. "
In front of him, as if pulled by an invisible force, the wood placed on the ground flew into the air and built a tavern skeleton.
Then, the spirit stones in his pocket turned into light spots and disappeared into the skeleton. Just like when the City Lord Hall was built, the appearance of the tavern skeleton in front of him changed dramatically. An antique ancient tavern appeared in front of Tang Yu.
Tang Yu couldn't wait to enter the tavern.
The tavern wasn't big, only one floor, covering an area of only 50 or 60 square meters. There were a few tables and chairs in the tavern, and a counter. Tang Yu even saw the shelf behind the counter was full of drinks.
Just like a real, ordinary tavern, not as gorgeous as the Lord's Castle. But this was just a facade. The tavern's real function was to recruit adventurers.
This was what Tang Yu needed the most right now. As long as he paid a certain price, he could sign a contract with the adventurers and gain their loyalty.
