Chapter 17: Color-changing Paint Bucket, Heading to the Flower Sprite Tribe

【Color-changing Paint Bucket】

Rank: First Rank

Effect: As long as there is sufficient energy, it can continuously produce color-changing paint; objects coated with the color-changing paint can automatically change their surface color, blending into the surrounding environment.

Cleaning method: Use water infused with mental power to vigorously wipe the paint surface ten or more times.

……

"Hahaha! Indeed it can change color automatically."

Su Hao laughed loudly, stored all the remaining materials on the bed into his storage space, and walked out of the room holding the color-changing paint bucket and the energy crystal.

Regarding the effect of the color-changing paint bucket, Su Hao could not be more satisfied.

Objects coated with the color-changing paint not only can automatically change color, but also achieve an invisibility effect.

The paint itself also has strong adhesion; only by vigorously wiping with water infused with mental power can the paint be removed.

Applying it to the exterior walls of a building eliminates worries about it peeling off due to wind and rain.

"Da Xiong Mao, don't sleep, get up and help a bit!"

Passing by Da Xiong Mao's room, Su Hao shouted at the giant panda lying face-up on the bed.

This wasn't Su Hao trespassing into someone else's room; rather, Da Xiong Mao had left the door open while sleeping, lying spread-eagle on the bed with a corner of a blanket casually covering his belly.

"Huh?"

After hearing Su Hao's voice, Da Xiong Mao smacked his lips twice, groggily opening his eyes.

"What does Da Tui want me to do? It seems he's calling me to help."

"Huh? Help?!"

"Roar!"

Upon recalling Su Hao's words, Da Xiong Mao instantly woke up, hastily climbed off the bed, and followed Su Hao out of the shelter.

"Da Tui's business, I'll definitely help; I want to see which clueless brat dares to provoke my Da Tui—I'll slap him to death!"

"Huh?"

Outside the shelter, Da Xiong Mao blankly took the brush Su Hao handed over; after understanding what Su Hao wanted him to help with, he obviously froze for a moment.

"What the heck? Painting walls? I came out all fired up, and now you want me to paint walls?"

"Don't just stand there, hurry up—I still need to go out after finishing this!"

"Roar..."

Da Xiong Mao let out a listless roar, then dipped the brush into the color-changing paint bucket and painted the shelter's walls.

Immediately after.

A miraculous scene appeared: on the shelter's walls, where the paint had been applied, it seemed to become transparent; if you didn't look closely, you wouldn't notice it at all.

"Huh?!"

Da Xiong Mao instantly widened his eyes, extended a claw, and lightly poked the painted wall.

"Is this invisibility? Where did Da Tui get this paint? Applying it makes you invisible—this is too amazing!"

"Hmm..."

"As expected of Da Tui, truly awesome—I've claimed this Da Tui for myself!!!"

Afterwards, Da Xiong Mao painted the color-changing paint more vigorously; in a short while, he had coated the entire shelter.

Now, unless you get up close and observe carefully, you simply cannot notice the shelter's existence.

Next, we need to apply the color-changing paint to the eight-story small building below as well.

However, the building's surface area is far larger than the shelter's; if we tried to paint it with a brush, we wouldn't finish even by tomorrow.

"Got it!"

Su Hao suddenly had a brainwave; he took the color-changing paint bucket to the edge of the wall and poured it down along the eaves—this efficiency is far faster than using a brush.

Anyway, as long as there is sufficient energy, the color-changing paint bucket can continuously produce color-changing paint.

The energy crystal in Su Hao's hand is enough for the color-changing paint bucket to produce sufficient paint to flood the entire building; there's no need to worry about conserving paint.

In about half an hour, Su Hao poured a circle of color-changing paint around the roof, covering roughly seventy percent of the building's surface.

Then, Su Hao took a brush, and together with Da Xiong Mao spent over two hours brushing the remaining thirty percent of the building's surface with the color-changing paint.

Thus, the eight-story small building and the shelter on its roof were completely coated with color-changing paint, placing them in an invisibility state barely visible to the naked eye.

"Hahaha! Now we won't be bothered by goblins all day!"

Su Hao laughed loudly, roughly ruffling Da Xiong Mao's head with both hands.

"Roar."

Da Xiong Mao rolled his eyes, "Can't you rub me the right way, following my fur?"

After letting out a symbolic roar, he followed Su Hao back into the shelter.

As soon as they entered, the little girl picked up two prepared cups of water from the coffee table and ran over, handing one cup to Su Hao and one to Da Xiong Mao.

"Here, here..."

"Hahaha, thank you!"

Although the little girl's voice was barely audible, she uttered a single word, which also made Su Hao overjoyed; he took the water cup with one hand and lifted the little girl with the other.

At least she has regained some language ability; there's no need to worry that fear will leave her with a lifelong physical impairment.

"Roar."

Da Xiong Mao let out a soft roar, drank the water from the cup in one gulp, and gently pinched the little girl's head with two claws.

After a moment's thought, it took a purple gold bamboo from inside the shelter on its neck and brought it to the little girl's mouth.

"Roar."

"Don't! You should keep this for yourself to eat!"

Su Hao's eye twitched twice, and he shoved the purple gold bamboo back.

Although this thing is good stuff, it can enhance physique, increase strength and impact resistance.

But the taste is really not great; people with bad teeth really can't enjoy it—don't ask me how I know……

Moreover, purple gold bamboo contains purple gold toxin; if an ordinary person really eats a few bites, their body might turn metallic.

"Roar."

Da Xiong Mao belatedly realized this, scratched his head embarrassedly, and silently put the purple gold bamboo away.

After resting a while in the shelter, Su Hao told the little girl and Da Xiong Mao a sentence, then left the shelter alone.

"Don't worry, I'll be back tonight!"

Watching the little girl standing at the shelter's gate, looking at him with worried eyes, Su Hao felt warm inside.

Having a home in the apocalypse feels absolutely wonderful!

"Da Xiong Mao, keep an eye on the shelter; if anyone dares to court death, smash them for me!"

"Roar."

Da Xiong Mao patted his chest, raised a thumb, indicating everything's fine, you can rely on me.

Seeing that, Su Hao said no more, turned and walked down the stairs.

Upon reaching the seventh floor, Su Hao found a kitchen knife and a whetstone in the kitchen, used today's last synthesis evolution, and forged a sharp short blade.

Next, Su Hao will go to the flower sprite tribe to attend the trade fair; it's always good to prepare an extra weapon.

Although the sharp short blade is merely something Su Hao synthesized from an ordinary kitchen knife and whetstone, it is also a weapon that can cut iron like mud.

If taken to trade, there's no worry about not getting good stuff; if one can exchange for a blueprint or extraordinary materials, that's a huge profit.

After putting away the sharp short blade, Su Hao grabbed the serrated long blade, walked out the first-floor gate, confirmed the direction, and strode toward the flower sprite tribe's location.
