Decoupling from dependency.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You couldn't stake your entire resource pipeline on a single person.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even with just one Fire Elemental Essence, it might not be enough for large-scale planting, but growing eight or ten specimens should be perfectly feasible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After stashing the Fire Elemental Essence in the storeroom, Lan Qingyou filtered the two batches of +30 mana potions she'd brewed that day, poured them into the wooden bucket to nourish the potion bags and dagger, and then headed upstairs to the second-floor bedroom with Steel Wire Ball.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After receiving this second copy yesterday, she'd compared it against her existing one.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The content was identical — right down to the font.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It made Lan Qingyou wonder whether these books had been mass-printed by some Blue Star printing factory. How else could they be so uniformly formatted, still carrying the scent of fresh ink?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In truth, this wasn't the first time the suspicion had crossed her mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Given that Kalim's World Will and Blue Star's World Will had negotiated with each other, communication had clearly existed between the two.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So it wasn't impossible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Over the next several days, Lan Qingyou continued her steady, regimented lifestyle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Five cauldrons of potions each day, followed by a quick bombing run outside to keep her throwing arm in shape — just in case something unexpected came up and she needed to spring into action.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then one day.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With her potion bags slung over her shoulder, Lan Qingyou wrapped up the day's \"bombing session\" and headed back toward her shelter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But just as she was approaching, she spotted three suspicious-looking characters standing at the base of her tree, pointing and gesturing at it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Don't tell me they're here to rob me?'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Wasn't the rule that no one could enter a shelter without the owner's permission?'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Curiosity piqued, Lan Qingyou silently descended to a tree branch directly above the trio's heads.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You sure there's really a shelter up there?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Brother Dao, I'm dead serious. I saw someone fly up there with my own eyes yesterday. And look over there — see that big wooden balcony? I guarantee that's a Level 3 shelter.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Idiot! You just said the person flew up. How exactly are we supposed to get up there?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We climb those vines. I've already checked — based on my calculations, those vines can reach that broken branch section. Then we use grappling hooks to latch onto the balcony railing, and we're in.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Good. Skinny, stay sharp. The moment that woman comes back, hit her immediately. Take her out and the shelter is ours.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Got it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perched on the branch above, Lan Qingyou listened to their conversation and got the general picture of what they were planning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While it was true that an activated shelter couldn't be entered without the owner's invitation—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If you killed the shelter's owner, the shelter became yours for the taking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That included all the supplies stored inside the Magic Desk.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>People had been talking about this in the channels for days. A few had even nearly fallen victim to it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This had driven some survivors to band together, pooling resources into a single shelter for maximum protection.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Level 3 shelters like Lan Qingyou's were still uncommon, so naturally they attracted covetous eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The majority of people were still going about their lives solo.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lan Qingyou leaned forward for a better look. These three had come prepared — the tall, skinny one was even holding a wooden crossbow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clearly designed to deal with someone who could \"fly.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But as Lan Qingyou studied them more closely, a flicker of recognition crossed her face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Well!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What a coincidence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Two of the three were people she actually knew.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Weren't these the same two thieves who'd barged into the room she'd been left to die in?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She still remembered the one with the scar spitting at her in disgust.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Heaven offers you a road and you refuse to walk it; hell has no gate, yet here you come knocking.'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With that thought, Lan Qingyou pulled out an Explosion Potion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was about time for some live combat practice to build up her battle experience anyway.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She extended her hand, then released the test tube pinched between her thumb and index finger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boom!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Aaagh—\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"My leg! My leg's broken!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Wha— what happened—\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A deafening explosion was followed by agonized screaming.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Not bad for firepower, huh.'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing the cries, Lan Qingyou peeked down and quietly noted the results.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A single Explosion Potion had left two severely wounded and one lightly injured. What more could she ask for?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It made sense, really.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Most people right now had around 10 points in stamina at best, which translated to roughly 100 HP. A single potion instantly shaved off 30 HP, plus an additional 10 HP from the burn-over-time — that was practically half their life bar gone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Compared to the legendarily bomb-resistant Slimes, humans really couldn't take a hit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not that the Slimes had more HP — it was their regeneration that was absurd. Blow half their body apart and they'd patch themselves back together in two seconds flat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That was probably the advantage of home-field advantage. In a swamp, there was never any shortage of mud to work with.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So Lan Qingyou followed up with a Flame Potion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She wasn't naive enough to see her opponents injured and think, \"Advantage is mine!\" before charging in with a dagger for a melee showdown.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Staying up here and picking them off from above was perfectly fine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The wailing below continued as Lan Qingyou sat leisurely on the branch, waiting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The rising heat from the Flame Potion's conflagration licked at the branch beneath her, and the hot air made her skin prickle with warmth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She waited until the screams faded from loud to soft and finally fell silent, until the burning heat dissipated, and only then did she peek down again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What greeted her were three charred bodies.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at them, Lan Qingyou's expression was neither happy nor sad.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She'd seen corpses before. The first time had been somewhat hellish, but she'd seen them nonetheless...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And the second time was during those few days she'd been dumped in the slum.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>During those days, practically every time she closed her eyes she'd have nightmares — dreaming of her own body slowly rotting away on a filthy bed in a dark, grimy room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lan Qingyou glanced at the crossbow the tall skinny man had been holding — now blasted several meters away by the explosion — and drifted over to pick it up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At room temperature, bodies would start showing signs of decay in two or three days. For these three, the best outcome would probably be getting gnawed on by monsters tonight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With that thought, Lan Qingyou didn't spare the filthy remains another glance and flew toward her shelter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though she'd spent the entire day making potions, there was no rest for her yet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tonight, she was going to attempt crafting the bullets Shang Chuan had ordered.\u003C\u002Fp>",1251,"2026-06-05T21:58:31.676Z",1,"novelbin.me","8baf5a2361ba8699e9cdecd939d49600f0fe3a92ceebbfe3909a6476b734da8e","global-survival-the-tower-witch-with-an-e-rank-t-chapter-48","global-survival-the-tower-witch-with-an-e-rank-t-chapter-46",965,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fglobal-survival-the-tower-witch-with-an-e-rank-t-cover.jpg"]
