Chapter 4

The panel prompted that I obtained one Shelter Expansion Scroll, two Soul Stones, one Shelter Transfer Scroll, and one Storage Room Scroll.

The Shelter Transfer Scroll and Storage Room Scroll fell to the ground with a 'bang,' 'Does this count as striking gold? At least it's a big haul.'

Li Qingxuan hurriedly picked up the Shelter Transfer Scroll and Storage Room Scroll, then checked the item information.

【Item: Shelter Expansion Scroll】

【Effect: Shelter area +20 square meters】

【Description: Can expand the shelter area】

【Item: Soul Stone】

【Effect: Spirit +5】

【Description: Can increase the Spirit attribute】

【Item: Shelter Transfer Scroll】

【Effect: Can store the shelter in the scroll and release it at a designated location】

【Description: Can transfer the shelter to another place】

【Item: Storage Room Scroll】

【Effect: When used at a designated location, can obtain a 20-square-meter storage room】

【Description: Can build a storage room for storing supplies】

Damn, these things are definitely super useful! I need to use the Soul Stone quickly to boost my strength, bringing me a big step closer to dominating those weird creatures! Li Qingxuan grinned.

He also checked his backpack; he now has 7 breads, 3 bottles of water, a Shelter Expansion Scroll, 3 Spirit Fruits, a Black Iron Spear, a Fireplace Blueprint, a Water Purifier Blueprint, 2 candles, a quilt, and 15 units of wood.

No wonder, it turns out all ten slots in my backpack were full, no wonder they fell to the ground. Li Qingxuan said while casually placing the bread, water, and candles on the table.

Seeing that the Night Countdown had only three minutes left, I quickly lit the candle on the candlestand, and a warm yellow glow spread across the room. Then I hurriedly tidied up, tossing all the scattered clutter outside in one go, and then slammed the door shut with a 'bang'.

Li Qingxuan took out the wood from his backpack, neatly stacking it in the corner; the wood made a faint sound as it touched the wall. Then he carefully spread the soft quilt on the bed, smoothing out every wrinkle. Afterwards, he took a deep breath, used the Soul Stone, and in an instant a warm current surged into his body; the panel prompted Spirit +10, and he hurriedly opened his personal attribute panel.

【Name: Li Qingxuan】

【Age: 24】

【Gender: Male】

【Constitution: 21】

【Spirit: 17】 (the adult average value is 5)

【Occupation: Weird Master】

【Abilities: Weird Encyclopedia, Domination, Devour Evolution】

【Evaluation: An ordinary and somewhat handsome man; if he doesn't grow quickly, he might die in the next second.】

Li Qingxuan took out the Storage Room Scroll and discovered that the storage room could be placed in the four directions—front, back, left, right—of the wooden house, connected to his wooden house, or also placed underground.

After thinking for a while, he placed the storage room underground, with the entrance under his bed; this spot is safe and hard to discover, and even if the shelter is breached, it can serve as a temporary hiding place—two benefits in one.

He used the scroll, placed the storage room at his designated spot, and heard the panel prompt that the storage room installation was complete, increasing the wooden house area by 20 square meters.

Then Li Qingxuan, using both hands, slowly moved the bed aside; the wooden planks at the entrance fit seamlessly with the ground, as if they were originally one piece. If he buried soil on top at this moment and didn't examine closely, no trace would be detectable.

He pushed open the wooden door of the storage room, descended slowly along the wooden ladder, and entered this 4*5-meter space, with a height of about 2.5 meters; its construction material was the same as that of the wooden house.

Li Qingxuan used his backpack to stack the wood neatly one by one, then returned to the wooden house and restored everything to its original state.

Li Qingxuan stretched lazily, then leisurely lay down on the bed, lightly tapped with his fingertip, opened the Area Chat Channel, scanned the screen, and looked for any valuable messages.

When idle, browsing the Area Chat Channel became his pastime; the feeling was somewhat similar to playing with a phone. Li Qingxuan's lips curled slightly, and he let out a light laugh.

【Area Channel Members: /】

【Liu Ruyan: Brothers and sisters, I haven't dared to go out all day; my water and bread are running low. Does anyone kind-hearted share some with me? I can exchange with plain silk stockings.】

【Xu Hao: What weird creatures did everyone encounter today? Let's share the information.】

【Li Erlong: Damn, I have a female ghost attacking my door; is there anyone who can save me?】

【Nao Hai de Long: I want to go home, but I don't know how my family is doing.】

【Liu Xing: Having a female ghost keep you company late at night isn't bad; as long as you're bold, the female ghost goes on maternity leave, and you go out and kick her ass.】

【Wang Wu: Someone at the Trading Center is exchanging food and water for wood; if you need it, go take a look.】

At this moment, Li Qingxuan saw many people adding him as a friend and sending him private messages; he didn't see any useful information, most were exchanging useless items for food and water.

Furthermore, some directly sent their own photos, implying they wanted to come to his wooden house to make a living together. Li Qingxuan merely glanced out of curiosity (really just curiosity, hehe) and then there was no follow-up.

Just then, someone in the private chat channel sent information about a Manufacturing Table; Li Qingxuan felt delighted, 'Really, after searching high and low with no success, it comes easily without effort.'

【Item: Manufacturing Table】

【Effect: Can record blueprints and produce items via the Manufacturing Table】

【Description: Gather the blueprints and required materials to craft the items shown on the blueprints】

Li Qingxuan glanced at the avatar, and it turned out to be a beauty; seeing her ask if she could exchange items, he opened the private chat and replied, 'How do you intend to exchange this Manufacturing Table?'

At the same time, Li Feifei lay flat on the hard wooden board bed; her long, beautiful legs were exposed beneath her shorts, her abdominal muscles showed a clear mermaid line, her muscle tone was even and natural, her body after a recent workout was covered with a fine layer of sweat, and her clothing was damp in several places from sweat.

Seeing the big shot's reply in the private chat channel, Li Feifei suddenly sat up, her chest heaving, tracing a stunning arc.

"Big shot, I'm glad we're in the same area; I also don't know what I can exchange, what do you have available for trade?"

"The shelter's area is sufficient for now, and I have no plans to relocate; I might as well trade the Shelter Expansion Scroll and Shelter Transfer Scroll that I don't urgently need for the Manufacturing Table." Li Qingxuan thought to himself.

Having made up his mind, Li Qingxuan sent his trade‑available supplies: "Hello, beauty, I have bread, water, Shelter Transfer Scroll, Shelter Expansion Scroll, and wood; what do you want?"

Li Feifei's eyes lit up as she laughed, "The Shelter Transfer Scroll is mine! Give me some bread and water too; I'll consider the Expansion Scroll next time, hehe!"

Li Feifei thought, "With the Shelter Transfer Scroll, even if I can't hold out, I can relocate near others—able to rely on them while retaining my autonomy."

Li Qingxuan saw that Li Feifei acted with propriety, and immediately decided to keep three loaves of bread for himself and give her four.

"I won't give you water—I don't have much either—here, take four loaves of bread."

"No problem." Li Feifei replied quickly.

Put the Shelter Transfer Scroll and four breads into the trading window; after both parties locked the items and clicked agree, the transaction was completed smoothly.

「Big shot, don't mind giving me a friend spot? 」

「Sure, if you have anything good, come find me. 」

Li Qingxuan happily agreed to Li Feifei's friend request, then they chatted briefly, giving him a preliminary understanding of Li Feifei; Li Feifei was a former female soldier before transmigrating, and the Manufacturing Table actually came from a Black Iron Treasure Chest.

However, thinking that he had obtained two important blueprints from the Black Iron Treasure Chest, Li Qingxuan no longer lamented the other's good fortune; he took the Manufacturing Table out of his backpack and placed it where he had previously stacked wood.

A one-meter-square, one-and-a-half-meter-high Manufacturing Table came into view; Li Qingxuan recorded the Fireplace Blueprint and Water Purifier Blueprint from his backpack one by one into the Manufacturing Table, then lay back on the bed again.

「Now the fireplace isn't very useful; the water purifier is key—we need to gather the materials quickly. 」

He opened the Trading Center; inside, the trading information was very chaotic—someone listed a bread for 50 unit wood, another offered a bottle of water for 100 unit wood. Li Qingxuan saw that no recognized trade ratio had formed yet, so he decided to find something else to do.
