The sun sets in the west, and the last rays of light fade away.
Lin Yu's hands move faster.
After using the shovel to dig a large pit near the feces, Lin Yue sharpened a piece of wood with an axe and placed it at the bottom of the pit.
At that moment, a voice emerged.
[You have obtained a trap design map]
Oh wow, is that possible?
[Simple Trap: Wood ×3, Iron Block ×3, Dry Grass ×3]
After using the trap design map and pulling some dry grass, Lin Yue immediately clicked on manufacture.
Then he found that the large pit was already filled with wooden spikes like nails, and the pit was covered with dry grass, making it nearly flawless in the dim night.
This was much better than what he had envisioned.
"Pigi?" Xiao Bai, who had been on guard nearby all along, let out a sound seeing Lin Yue had finished his work.
"It's all done, Xiao Bai, come back!" Lin Yue stretched out his hand, and a white shadow jumped onto his shoulder.
Xiao Bai's senses are much sharper than his, which is its inherent advantage.
Previously in the Secret Realm, it was Xiao Bai who first discovered the mutant rat. If it were him, he would have been much slower.
Returning to the Shelter, Lin Yue tidied up the bulky items and finally made it to the bedside.
He had to admit that the 100% exploded treasure chest is indeed satisfying, but it also has a small imperfection.
As resources, tools, weapons, and various other things continually increase, the space they occupy also expands.
A forty-square-meter Shelter actually can't accommodate much.
After organizing for a while, Lin Yue finally cleared a spot and lit a torch.
"Pigi, pigi." Xiao Bai darted around amidst the cluttered items, seeming to enjoy it, but for Lin Yue, who quite loves cleanliness and tidiness, the Shelter now is simply a pigsty.
He constantly stored and retrieved items in the inventory, placing the bulky ones below and the small ones above.
After tidying up for a while, he finally finished.
Lin Yue felt that doing this was even more exhausting than going to kill mutant creatures.
It seems that solving the housing space issue will be a top priority in the future.
There is more to do than just this.
Today, due to the mutant sheep and the Secret Realm, he pushed the matter of the disaster three days later to the back.
The snow disaster, with just the current supplies reserves, it's simply impossible to get through it easily.
The Shelter's insulation, his own warmth, plus Xiao Bai's warmth.
Food and water, and a large quantity of other supplies…
If the snow disaster lasts long, then his preparations must be thorough.
Currently, Lin Yue can only solve the food and water problems.
For all other issues, he has to start thinking anew.
Sitting at the bedside, Lin Yue's gaze fell on the four pieces of sheepskin in the corner.
This thing is surely warm, but its smell is indeed strong; it could be used as a blanket except it's a bit heavy.
Is there any way to modify it?
For warmth during snowy days… firewood!
He has fire, as well as wood for firewood, but he lacks a stove.
He needs to expand the house, make the Shelter warm, and get a stove…
It seems there are indeed a lot of things to do.
Thinking about this, the workload for tomorrow suddenly seemed to multiply.
However, there are shortcuts.
Lin Yue opened the game panel, first checking out the group, intending to find useful information.
"By the way, aren't more people dying today? There are only 6700 left?"
"You can find good stuff in the Secret Realm way faster than monster grinding and exploding treasure chests. They probably died there."
"It's true, I actually found a bottle of 1982 Lafite, real, not counterfeit! If anyone has good stuff, we can DM and the highest bidder wins."
"Did Boss Lin go to the Secret Realm? I've got good stuff too, trading for water."
"Report, luck struck, got a rare design map, Lin Yue let's trade, you know."
"Bullshit Lin Yue Boss, just a scamming water seller, still fools buying water from him? Lin Yue, damn you!"
"Lin, you're a bug!"
"Hey, aren't you guys worrying about the snow disaster? Snow disaster is not just snow that can be turned into water."
"Found a major BUG! Isn't it like 30 degrees now? There'll be a snow disaster? That's nonsense."
…
Lin Yue pulled those cursing him one by one into the blacklist.
The game group, of course, had this feature.
Not only could it block adding friends and various spam, but it could also prevent them from trading in the market and sending private messages.
Lin Yue approved wholeheartedly.
When you're out of water and dying of thirst, come crawling!
He is not the type to hold a grudge; putting them in blacklist isn't excessive, right?
After handling this, Lin Yue immediately opened the trade panel and searched for the items sold by Du Ping.
In this group, there are quite a few people like Du Ping who have been storing water, this crucial resource; after all, there are still three days until the snow disaster.
How long can you drink urine? How many times?
At least until the snow disaster arrives, water is still extremely important.
[Seller: Du Ping]
[Auction Item: Shelter Design Map]
[Required: Drinking Water 2L]
[Seller's Note: Unfortunately, trading can't be specified, worth the price or not, Lin Shen, it's up to you.]
Wait? Shelter Design Map?
A Shelter can still be designed?
Moreover, how was this thing obtained?
Thinking about it, he sent Du Ping a private message.
"How did you get it?"
Almost instantly, Du Ping replied, "Boss, just tell me if you want it. I think you understand it's not the trash those fools say."
Lin Yue didn't reply further; he immediately bought it!
[You lost 2L of water]
[You obtained Shelter Design Map ×1]
Du Ping sent a second private message, "Boss, add me as a friend? I'll let you know first when I have good stuff."
"Next time surely." Lin Yue didn't agree.
Currently, he doesn't want to add anyone as a friend.
After all, the relations he's built with anyone are only through the group and trading mall.
It's quite unreliable.
Complicated interpersonal relationships aren't a problem for him, but in this Otherworld where he constantly has to think about survival, he doesn't have time for such matters.
Trust, at this moment, he only shares some with Xiao Bai playing on the desk.
Recalling Xiao Bai's fondness for water, Lin Yue poured some water into a wooden bowl he had made before, and Xiao Bai immediately ran over, soaking itself in.
However, the bowl was small and Xiao Bai was big, causing water to spill all over the table.
Xiao Bai seemed to regard it as a pity and drank up all the water on the table.
Lin Yue took out a piece of bread, broke off a piece for Xiao Bai, and also started munching.
He looked at the Shelter Design Map he just obtained in the inventory.
[Shelter Design Map, can establish a new shelter, area of 40 square meters]
The system's explanation popped up immediately, different from other items.
Lin Yue's eyes lit up.
Isn't this just the perfect solution for one of the challenges he faces?
