Night, silent.
In a relatively intact villa, several survivors sat together by the light of the fire.
"Do you think those two people really want to build a shelter here?"
"Don't be ridiculous. It's so easy to build a shelter. Besides, there are only two of them. It doesn't matter if they are strong. Building a shelter is not just about being strong."
"Don't worry about those two people. Let's think about ourselves. What should we do? It's no longer safe here. How about we go to Lindong Shelter. It's a large shelter and there are troops stationed there. As long as we go there There, you no longer have to worry about attacks from demonized beasts.”
Some people suggested it, but others were not optimistic about it.
"Lindong Shelter is indeed a good place, but how are we going to get there? It's sixty kilometers away from here, and it's a straight line distance. If I could easily reach Lindong Shelter, I wouldn't have chosen to stay in this small shelter. That’s it.”
As soon as these words came out, everyone else looked depressed.
I originally hid in the underground cold storage, thinking I was safe, but in the end I was almost killed by a demonized beast, if it hadn't been for the two masters who happened to be passing by...
Someone suddenly said, "It would be great if those two masters also went to Lindong Sanctuary, then we could follow them."
"Humph, they are thinking of building a shelter. They will go to Lindong. Even if they go, they may not take us with them. I think it is better to think of a way to go to small shelters that are relatively close."
"But why can't we stay here? Those two masters clearly said that as long as we stay in this villa area, our safety can be guaranteed."
However, few people believe this.
In their minds, there were only two people on Tang Yu's side, and they were still missing. Not to mention the real danger, whether the two masters would rescue him or not, even if they could, they might not be able to do so in time. The reason why they are not optimistic about the two people building a shelter is because there are too few people. No matter how powerful they are, it is impossible to take into account all aspects.
In fact, they understand in their hearts that there is no reason to ask others to protect themselves if they are not relatives. However, they understand rationally and emotionally, everyone hopes that someone will kill them when danger comes.
This is just human survival instinct.
Finally, Chen Haiping ended the topic, "Instead of thinking about these things, it is better to practice more marksmanship and swordsmanship. Even if you cannot awaken, you can give yourself a better chance of survival."
A candle with a faint flame on the table swayed gently.
Chen Haiping wiped his weapon and was about to say something else when his expression suddenly changed.
"careful!"
Chen Haiping immediately grasped the handle of the machete and looked out the floor-to-ceiling window of the villa with solemn eyes.
Two dots of faint green light penetrated deeply into the dark night.
"It's a demonized beast!" Someone was horrified.
"Didn't they say that the demonized beasts in this area have been cleared away?" Someone was confused.
"I knew that there were only a few of them, how could they possibly guard against the demonized beasts? The demonized beasts roamed everywhere. Without a solid city wall or a complete line of defense, there would be no safe place to rest!"
Chen Haiping didn't speak, but just waved the others to step back. He knew that this thin floor-to-ceiling window could not block the demonized beast.
Suddenly... boom!
The whole villa shook violently, and the candle fell to the ground with a clatter.
Some people were confused, and some screamed in fear. Only Chen Haiping, who had been staring at the demonized beast, could barely see a figure falling from the sky and stepping on the demonized beast into the ground.
Chen Haiping finally saw clearly that it was the mysterious master wearing armor that afternoon. He trampled the demonized beast to death with one kick.
Others also gasped. They didn't see the process, but the result... Such an infiltrative demonized beast was trampled to death like a bug.
Several people had complicated expressions. They didn't trust Tang Yu just now, and even said bad things about him behind his back, thinking that he was just using them as laborers and didn't care about their life or death, but now...
As soon as the demonized beast appeared, it was trampled to death by the armor master. They could not see the armor master's face, but the back figure was firmly reflected in their pupils, indelibly.
Puppet No. 2, who was responsible for guarding the territory, did not leave. Instead, he drew the spear from his back and stabbed the grass not far away.
The gun is like thunder!
Extraordinary speed!
Before the people in the villa could react, they saw a small demonized beast skewered on top of the spear, like a skewer of meat.
There is actually a demonized beast hidden among them!
Many survivors have lingering fears. They don't know what kind of demonized beast this is, but they just feel that this world is too dangerous.
But Chen Haiping took one look and couldn't move his eyes away!
This is a stinging insect!
Known as the assassin in the night!
The reason why Chen Haiping understood it was because the strongest awakened person in the shelter died in a sneak attack by the stinging insect. If the ability user hadn't exploded his abilities and died with the stinging insect when he was about to die, that one stinging insect alone would have shattered their defenses.
But such a stinging insect showed no resistance, like a skewer of meat on a spear.
Chen Haiping's breathing was rapid and his eyes were rounded. The shock he experienced on this day was probably more than that of a month ago.
Number 2 dragged the stinging insect and disappeared into the night, leaving only these survivors with their eyes wide open and speechless for a long time.
After a few minutes, these people recovered from the shock.
"We... survived?"
"Yeah." Someone looked at the direction where No. 2 disappeared, looking guilty, "Maybe... we shouldn't doubt them. Remember what they said, as long as we stay here and work for them, our safety can be guaranteed. , and provided us with enough food, I was thinking, maybe we can stay here."
"Yes, it's the same wherever you go in these last days. If you stay here, you can at least have enough to eat."
… … …
In the territory map, two red dots slowly disappeared. On the side, several yellow light dots representing neutrality flickered several times, and finally turned into green light dots representing one's own side.
The green dot does not mean that those people trust him unreservedly, and trust among the survivors of the apocalypse does not come so easily, but this change already represents a certain degree of recognition.
that's enough!
Tang Yu came to the open space behind the castle. There were piles of waste wood piled at his feet. This was what the survivors had brought to the villa area in the afternoon after they had finished carrying food, and then passed through No. 1 and No. 2. .
"Finally the first territory building can be built."
The lord's castle is not really a territorial building, but the core of the territory linked to the level of the territory. It was already the second day after getting the system and he had enough resources to build the first building. Tang Yu felt that it was too slow. It was thanks to meeting these survivors, otherwise No. 1 and No. 2 would have sacrificed their time to hunt demonized beasts to do the transportation work, and God knows how long the progress would have been delayed.
Open the building panel and select the tavern.
Establish!
"Ding dong! Build a tavern, which consumes 200 units of source crystal and 100 units of wood."
In front of his eyes, as if pulled by an invisible force, the wood placed on the ground flew up out of thin air and built the skeleton of a tavern.
Then, the source crystals in the pocket disappeared into light spots and merged into the skeleton, just like the city main hall had just been built. The skeleton of the tavern in front of him changed drastically, and an antique ancient tavern appeared in front of Tang Yu.
Tang Yu couldn't wait to walk into the tavern.
The tavern is not big, with only one floor and an area of only fifty or sixty square meters. There were several tables, chairs and a counter in the tavern. Tang Yu even saw the shelves behind the counter filled with drinks.
Just like a real, ordinary tavern, it is not as gorgeous as the lord's castle, but this is just the appearance. The real function of the tavern is to recruit adventurers.
This is what Tang Yu needs most at the moment. As long as he pays a certain price, he can sign a contract with the adventurer and gain allegiance.
Whether it is developing the territory or completing other ideas, sufficient manpower must be available before it can be carried out. Among them, trustworthy manpower is particularly important.
