Chapter 82: with translation of chapter title

Su Hao appears. Also withered plants are mentioned but not named.

Su Hao appears again. A withered ancient tree appears. Also a diameter of five kilometers is mentioned but not named.

Su Hao intended to use the Withered Ancient Tree to fish, and that was correct.

But if all the trees and plants within a 5‑kilometer radius turned into scarecrows, what fish would you still be trying to catch with a hammer?

Anyone who isn't an idiot would know something's wrong here…

Su Hao, a withered ancient tree, a withering curse, and a weakness curse.

Su Hao, Xiao Anni, Da Xiong Mao.

Moreover, to fish better, Su Hao issued a new command to the Withered Ancient Tree.

That is, to have the Withered Ancient Tree control the intensity of the Withering Curse, ensuring that enemies only die when they enter the tree and the surrounding area is within one or two hundred meters.

This way there's no need to worry, because too many desiccated bodies or scarecrows appearing around would deter the dark forest's monsters from approaching.

Su Hao, shelter (generic, not a named entity, thus excluded).

"Before upgrading, we must first move the shelter down!"

Su Hao stroked his chin and walked upstairs.

Su Hao, goblin (generic monster, not a named entity, thus excluded).

Now that the shelter is to be upgraded, naturally it must be moved down.

First, after the shelter upgrades, the space will expand, and Su Hao cannot be sure whether that spot on the roof can accommodate the upgraded shelter.

Su Hao, an eight-story small building (generic, not a named entity).

Although even if the shelter were to fall from the eighth floor, its structure wouldn't suffer too severe damage, but the furniture inside would likely end up in a mess.

Therefore, while the shelter hasn't been upgraded yet, its volume isn't large and its weight relatively light, moving it down from the roof is the best choice.

However, the shelter's external volume is not small either, so moving it down the stairwell is obviously impossible.

If it can't be moved down the stairs, then there's only one method left…

In the midst of his thoughts, Su Hao had already returned to the shelter.

He first called Xiao Anni out, then stored all movable objects inside the shelter into the Storage Bag as much as possible to reduce the shelter's weight.

Next, Su Hao and Da Xiong Mao each stood at opposite ends of the shelter, lifted it together, and slowly walked to the edge of the rooftop.

Su Hao.

At Su Hao's command, one person and one bear lifted the shelter and, without hesitation, jumped off the rooftop edge.

no named.

With a loud boom, Su Hao and Da Xiong Mao slammed the shelter onto the ground, blasting a pit over twenty meters in diameter into the earth.

Although the process was a bit rough, at least the shelter was successfully moved down from the roof.

Afterwards, Su Hao placed five thousand units of wood, five thousand of stone, five hundred of iron ore, and ten units of limestone boulders onto the Construction Platform, then began upgrading the shelter.

no named.

All the materials on the Construction Platform were then enveloped by a golden light, forming a golden orb that encased the shelter, creating a huge light sphere over ten meters in diameter.

Moreover, this huge light sphere continued to expand in size over time, lasting about fifteen minutes.

Suddenly, the golden sphere burst forth with blinding light, causing Su Hao, Da Xiong Mao, and Xiao Anni on the rooftop to instinctively raise their hands to shield their eyes.

Su Hao, Da Xiong Mao, Xiao Anni.

Soon after, everything returned to calm, the golden light sphere vanished, and the shelter reappeared before Su Hao's eyes.

At this point, the shelter's appearance had changed dramatically—from a small one‑story house about ten meters on each side, it had become a two‑story villa over twenty meters in length and width.

Weird Power shelter.

Su Hao.

Su Hao.

Su Hao, death tombstone.

Su Hao, second-tier supernatural material.

Su Hao.

Su Hao, withered ancient tree, fireplace (generic), water purification device (generic).

Su Hao.

Su Hao, weird power shelter, heating (generic), water purification (generic), withering curse, weakness curse.

Introduction: A shelter that has stolen Weird Power can construct special buildings, granting greater might, while also making advancement more difficult!

(ellipsis) no.

"Holy crap, it went straight from a suite to a huge villa!"

Su Hao raised his eyebrows, showing a look of surprise.

A First‑Rank shelter originally covered only 100 square meters; after upgrading to Second Rank, its area increased by 700 square meters all at once.

But upon reflection, this is perfectly normal—Su Hao's shelter started larger than others', consumes more to upgrade, and ends up even bigger afterward; isn't that reasonable?

However, because Su Hao's shelter is a special shelter, just as it was at First Rank, to advance from Second to Third Rank it likewise requires constructing a special building.

But Su Hao has never even heard of this building, and doesn't know where to find its blueprints.

If the Death Tombstone cannot be built, the shelter will be unable to continue upgrading.

Su Hao, withered ancient tree, shelter (generic).

Upon thinking this, Su Hao immediately pushed open the shelter's doors and went inside.

As soon as he entered, a 3D model of a two‑story villa popped up before his eyes.

The first floor consists of a kitchen and dining room of about 150 square meters, a hall of about 100 square meters, and twelve bedrooms each with an independent bathroom.

The second-floor part is then composed of three super-large bedrooms each with one bedroom, one living room, and one bathroom.

Obviously, this is the internal layout after the shelter's upgrade.

Each has its own private bathroom; not bad!

Su Hao nodded in satisfaction, so he no longer needed to manually build a bathroom for Da Xiong Mao.

Afterward, Su Hao closed the 3D model and walked toward the Hall.

Because Su Hao wanted to reduce the shelter's weight for easier transport, the living room is now empty, with only a white fireplace on one wall.

Besides that, Su Hao also saw a piece of parchment on the floor of the Hall, strode over, and picked it up.

【Death Tombstone】

Materials required for construction: Necrotic Source Crystal ×1, any supernatural material of Second Rank or higher ×1, wood ×10000, stone ×20000.

Once the materials are ready, place the blueprint together with them into the Construction Platform to complete construction.

Introduction: The Lone Grave of the Dead can strengthen the mental power of all undead creatures within the shelter, enhance the effect of necromancy, and has a certain chance to transmute nearby corpses into undead.

……

"Nice! Indeed, after the upgrade, they give exclusive construction blueprints!"

Su Hao grinned and nodded in satisfaction.

Moreover, from the introduction it can be seen that the Death Tombstone, like the Withered Ancient Tree, is an extremely powerful structure.

If nothing unexpected happens, in the near future, Su Hao's territory will have an undead army of his own!

But when he saw the required materials clearly, he couldn't help but frown slightly.

The other basic materials are fine; his current stock is sufficient, but the Necrotic Source Crystal is troublesome—even with his memories from his past life, he has never heard of this material.

"Hmm... go post a trade in the group chat."

Su Hao pinched his chin, lightly tapped the communication bracelet, and opened the chat group of the Third Squad of the God Summer Doomsday Investigation Group.

"Huh? Someone tagged me?"

As soon as he opened the group chat, Su Hao discovered a tag notification—a message from someone named Zhu Ge Chang Qing.

【Zhu Ge Chang Qing: @Su Hao, the Storage Bag trade application has been approved; you can use 400 Lethally Poisoned Arrows or three First-Tier Supernatural Items for the trade, and if you have any objections you may raise them.】
