The World Is A Wasteland: I Obtained A Top Tier Shelter - Chapter 24

Chapter 24 Reward From the Trap

The endless night swallowed everything in the wasteland.

A weak light emitted from the cracks of the shelter.

Mutated creatures that had become abnormally active due to the night also surged out from their hiding places and wandered in the wasteland.

Birds flew past the stone shelter, large gray moths fluttered in the gaps of the land, carrion beetles used their forelimbs to dig through the soil where the bones were buried, and groups of mutated sheep hunted the unihorn rabbits that ate the grass…

Night was as crazy as always!

In the center of the wasteland, Lin Yue was already asleep in his shelter.

The sense of security brought by this stone shelter was truly good.

Some mutated creatures used their bodies to hit the stone walls, but they realized that it was useless. Instead, they were the ones bleeding.

Although Xiaobai kept calling after being woken up from the noise, Lin Yue, who had been fighting and exploring for the entire day, was exhausted and was in a deep sleep.

In the end, Xiaobai gradually got used to the sound of the impacts and fell asleep in the bowl.

There were not many people who could sleep so soundly like Lin Yue.

Most people were facing challenges from thirst, hunger, and mutated creatures.

To them, sleeping at night was an extravagant hope!

The night passed.

Lin Yue stretched and yawned as he got out of bed.

There was still a faint pain in his left arm.

He moved his arm closer to the torch and realized that there was a large bruise!

Yesterday, he had been too busy to pay attention to it.

After returning from the secret realm, he was busy digging traps and cleaning up the shelter. Then, he checked the trading center and bought Du Ping’s shelter blueprint.

He did not even know how he fell asleep.

“It is not that bad. Fortunately, there are no cuts. Otherwise…” Lin Yue felt relieved.

He did not care much about the broken wooden armor. Now that he thought of the battle, it was indeed a little dangerous.

Fortunately, he survived.

Xiaobai was sleeping soundly in the bowl. Lin Yue did not disturb it. He used the last few units of wood to make a new wooden armor and put it on. Then, he opened the stone door while holding the small round shield and iron spear.

The sun had yet to rise, and the air was filled with a faint mist.

Lin Yue felt that this morning seemed to be colder than before.

It was not quiet outside. He heard huffing sounds from behind the hut.

After cautiously walking over, he was surprised to see two mutated sheep lying in the trap he had dug yesterday!

Moreover, they had lost a lot of blood. They were breathing heavily.

Lin Yue’s iron spear easily pierced through their throats and ended their lives. At the same time, he obtained two copper treasure chests.

“The trap is really effective.” He smiled as he obtained two more pieces of sheepskin, twenty kilograms of mutated mutton, and four fangs.

After packing up, Lin Yue started making new things.

As long as you could make something that resembled the original product, the system would produce a blueprint.

The ladder and the trap blueprints were created like this.

With this in mind, Lin Yue decided to make some new things to see if they could be judged as blueprints by the system.

The materials he took out yesterday in the secret realm to mark the way were cube-shaped. Lin Yue’s inspiration came from them.

He took out four units of stones and made a ‘D’ shape with them.

No reaction.

How about another layer?

(You have obtained the blueprint for the stone stove.]

As expected!

(Stone stove: Stone x4]

He manufactured the stove. Lin Yue realized that it was just the right size to put down the wok.

He placed some hay under the stone stove and lit the match!

He set the wok and boiled water and placed two bags of instant noodles, vegetable packets, and sauce into it.

After a while, the fragrant smell spread in the air and Lin Yue’s stomach growled.

Xiaobai climbed up on his shoulder and sniffed the smell from the wok with interest.

“Xiaobai, you want a bite too?”

“Puji!”

Lin Yue touched its head and took out a new pair of chopsticks from the chopsticks box. He picked up some noodles and blew on them to cool them before bringing them to Xiaobai’s mouth.

As if it was born to eat noodles, Xiaobai slurped the noodles and swallowed them.

“Puji ~” After eating this mouthful, it actually wanted more.

“I’ll be damned, who would have thought that lizards love instant noodles?” Lin Yue couldn’t help but laugh.

This time, he took out Xiaobai’s bowl and put some noodles in it to cool before putting it aside for Xiaobai to eat. He also started eating from the wok.

After a while, the human and pet burped in satisfaction.

Lin Yue did not expect cooking instant noodles to be a different kind of fun.

After eating, it was time to get down to business.

Putting away the stove, wok, and wooden chopsticks, Lin Yue looked at the shelter blueprint in his inventory.

“Use it!”

However, the familiar white light did not appear. Instead, the system’s voice sounded.

(Shelter blueprint, please choose the construction classification.]

[1]

[2]

Build separately or combine them?

He examined the limitations of the current shelter.

The main issue was that the space was too small, but these two construction directions could resolve this problem.

The second issue was safety!

Lin Yue looked at the details of the current shelter and realized that its durability had decreased by 22 points.

He did not need to guess to know that this was the work of the mutated creatures.

Even a stone shelter was not fully safe.

Moreover, he was only going to face a snowstorm this time. If the next disaster was a huge earthquake, could this shelter hold on?

The second option was to merge and expand the area. Lin Yue thought for a moment and eliminated it.

The larger the area, the worse the warmth.

He had not made preparations for the snowstorm, but if he blindly expanded the area of the shelter, he would be in a disadvantageous situation.

The first option was to either use it as a warehouse or a basement.

The warehouse could not be a basement, but the basement could be used as a warehouse.

“Then, I’ll choose to build an underground shelter!”

(Please choose the material of the shelter.)

Why was it so complicated?

He looked at the various materials he had.

Wood 4, Stone 72, Iron 25, Copper 43, Coal 22. [Building an underground stone shelter requires 45 stones.]

(Please choose the location.]

“Below the original shelter!”

A white light flashed.

Lin Yue walked into the shelter and realized that there was a dark hole under the table. Looking carefully, there was a stone staircase leading down!

[1] Independent unit. Place the shelter on the ground or underground of any terrain.

[2] Merge and build. Can be fused with the existing shelter to expand the area of the shelter.
