Chapter 13: After the Disaster, Buy Ice!

Luo Yu frowned slightly. Although a water source was close, he did not dare to go out to extinguish the fire for fear of being struck to death by lightning.

Moreover, he believed that the dry lightning would not last long.

Indeed, the dry lightning might not last long, but it was still accompanied by strong winds.

“Phew…”

A strong gust of wind swept across the grassland, and the flames instantly spread, turning into a sea of fire in the distance!

Niu Da: “Wind! Ah! It’s over. I definitely won’t be able to keep my vegetable field!”

Luo Yu: “Don’t go out to put out the fire, you’ll be struck by lightning!”

Na Ke’er: “Everyone, you have to live well. We agreed to add each other as friends when we have money in the future. You have to live well!”

Alice said, “Don’t be afraid. Pray in your heart. The goddess will bless every kind child.”

Fang Yumeng: “Eh? A lightning struck the lake in my place. Many fish are showing their white bellies. I really want to pick them up.”

Luo Yu: “…Shut up, you three lucky kings!”

A violent wind swept over, and the flames quickly burned a patch grassland. However, Luo Yu did not have much worry on his face.

Because the flames was spreading towards the wall!

At this moment, the benefits of having a wall were displayed. If you have the ability, burn my stone too?

Luo Yu said, “Fortunately, the flames are blocked by my wall.”

“A wall?!”

Alina (Dark Elf): “Foolish human, you actually have a wall?”

Luo Yu: “Alina, you idiotic woman, I’ve tolerated you for a long time. If you dare to call me foolish again, I’ll draw a circle and curse you!”

As he spoke, he even attached a screenshot of a small section of the flame that was blocked by his wall.

Alina said, “It’s impossible for stupid humans to know how to curse. I’m not afraid of you.”

Alice said, “Alina, stop talking.”

Niu Da: “Strong! Although it’s only more than ten meters, it’s still so strong!”

The angle of the photo made him think that it was only more than ten meters long.

Zhu Lie (Pig Head Star): “It is made out of black spotted stones. Luo Yu, where did you get so many black spotted stones? Don’t tell me you dug them yourself.”

Luo Yu: “I love mining.”

Zhu Lie: “I also like to mine early, but my wall is only five meters in length. Luo Yu, your strength and stamina are so high.”

Na Ke’er: “Meow meow? Luo Yu is actually a very powerful boy, right?”

Fang Yumeng: “Someone told me to shut up, and I don’t dare to speak…”

Luo Yu said, “The fire is getting stronger. Let’s not talk anymore.”

Niu Da: “My place is burning too. The wooden house is about to collapse!”

Everyone: “Good luck!”

On Luo Yu’s side, the flames had indeed increased in size, but the wind was still blowing towards the wall. The hundred-meter long wall completely blocked the flames at the door of the house. It seemed like it would not burn the vegetable fields or the apple tree.

Crackle…

After a short fire, heavy rain fell from the sky, and the flames were quickly extinguished, but Luo Yu felt that something was wrong.

Even from a distance, he could see that the roof of the wooden house was leaking!

Fang Yumeng: “It’s over. My wooden house is leaking.”

“Our houses too!”

The regional chat was filled with wails. Luo Yu was afraid that he would not be able to sleep well tonight, so he rushed back to the wooden house and chopped the wolf skin on his body. He then placed various tools on the bed and called Dumby to carry the two bird eggs back to the toilet.

The man and wolf both leaned against the corner, and Luo Yu heaved a sigh of relief.

Even he felt that he had been tortured badly. Many people would probably suffer tonight.

Leaning against the corner of the wall, he fell asleep in a daze. That night, he dreamed that he was living in a three-story villa, calmly drinking coffee and admiring the scenery on a rainy night.

The next morning, the sky was clear. After waking up, Luo Yu stretched his body and felt good.

He walked into the wooden house and saw that it was indeed drenched. There was still water on the ground, and it was uncomfortable to look at.

He opened the construction page. If he wanted to build a stone house, he had to unlock the prerequisite: the blueprint of the stone house.

[Stone House Construction Description: 1,000 silver, 200 iron ore, Base Score above 100]

He looked at his score. As he had built a wall more than a hundred meters tall, his score had unknowingly reached 130.

“Eh, that’s enough!”

A smile appeared on Luo Yu’s face as he chose to unlock it.

After deducting the silver and iron ore, he could see some stone house templates that could be built at this stage.

There were ordinary stone houses, private houses, small two-story houses, or large three-story villas. The prices were all different.

Ordinary stone houses could be built with 6,000 stone bricks and 600 silver. A three-story villa could be built with 300,000 stone bricks and 30,000 silver. It was ridiculously expensive.

Of course, the safety index and comfort level of the two options were not on the same level.

Seeing these numbers, the corners of Luo Yu’s mouth twitched. “Alright, I’ll build the city wall first…”

The four Earth-digging Worms went to dig rocks again. Luo Yu built a fire in the wooden house and roasted some food while expelling the humidity.

Alice asked, “Is everyone okay? Did anyone catch a cold last night?”

Fang Yumeng said, “Last night, the three of us hugged each other for warmth. We were afraid of falling sick, so we didn’t dare to sleep. In the end, we couldn’t take it anymore and used all the money we earned from selling apples to increase our physique. We survived.”

“Is Luo Yu still alive?”

Luo Yu said, “I’m fine. Speaking of which, it costs 1,000 yuan to increase your physique. Is it really that profitable to sell apples?”

Fang Yumeng: “Yes, we priced each apple at 200 and earned more than 20,000 taels of silver. Last night, each of us obtained 6 points of physique.”

Tauren: “I don’t have 100 silver in all my possessions. You guys are really… I want to die!”

Luo Yu said, “Luck King! Luck King is real!”

Alice: “It’s good that you’re fine. Where’s Ke’er? Is she still there?”

Na Ke’er: “My sister and I are fine too. Cats can curl up in a ball and hide in the mine. My sister’s tail is also furry and very warm!”

Fang Yumeng: “Furry, meow, I want to touch…”

Looking at the regional chat, the few people he was familiar with were fine. When he looked at the world chat, they were all wailing.

Many people were sick. What it meant to be sick in such an environment was needless to say.

After chatting for a while, Luo Yu opened the auction house while eating grilled fish and apples.

Enter: “Ice.”

Last night, there were fist-sized hailstones in many places. The smart guys must have collected them. Sure enough, there were many people selling ice cubes!

Most of the ice were around the same price. Even if you priced your item too high, you would not be able to sell it. The market determined its value.

Currently, a unit of ice was worth at least 200 silver, and the highest was 250 silver.

Luo Yu knew that this price was obviously higher than the usual price. If it was winter, no one would buy your ice cubes for even two silver.

After browsing through it, he had a private chat with a Namikh named Rayner.

Luo Yu asked, “Brother, can you exchange the 500 ice cubes for something else?”

Leonard said, “I only want silver. Fifteen thousand silver. I won’t sell it for a silver less!”
