Chapter 150: Chapter 150: work myself to death?!
Just after the system prompt ended, a pile of building materials appeared in front of her. The black and gray outer packaging was neat and uniform. At first glance, the quantity was extremely large.
Liora walked forward and reached out to touch the surface of the material gently. It was rough but solid. As described, it was enough to withstand the impact of mutant creatures below level three. She nodded with satisfaction.
But then, she frowned slightly, looking at the mountain of building materials in front of her, and fell into deep thought.
"... So many materials, I have to install them all by myself? What a joke!" Liora muttered to herself, looking at the material bags piled up in front of her with a face full of despair.
She looked into the void and asked with reluctance, "System, can I apply for support?"
The system’s voice, without any emotion, sounded:
[Reminder: The building materials purchased in the mall must be manually installed by the host. The system only provides products and instructions and is not responsible for subsequent operations. For details, please refer to the "Infrastructure Installation Manual".]
"..." Liora’s expression froze, her chest was stuffy, and she almost cursed, "You dead system!"
She took a deep breath, holding back the words "What on earth are you here for?" gritted her teeth, and opened the material column, and indeed found the light blue electronic manual.
When she clicked on it, the content was ridiculously simple:
["Basic wall installation steps":
Step 1: Place the module at the target location and half-bury it in the ground.
Step 2: Activate the module button. The module will automatically take root in the ground and expand into a wall 100 meters wide and 7 meters high.
Step 3: Connect the next module to the end of the previous module, repeat the operation, and it can be automatically spliced and extended.]
"...That’s it??" Liora’s mouth twitched, and she suddenly felt a little incredible.
But she did it right away. She picked up a module, walked to the edge of the base, half-buried it in the soil according to the instructions, and then reached out and gently pressed the almost invisible button.
"Click!"
The next second, the ground shook lightly with a "hum--" sound, and the module seemed to be summoned. It unfolded, stretched, and spliced "click-click-click," and a thick wall seven meters high and a hundred meters wide was formed instantly.
"Wow, it’s pretty amazing." Liora nodded with satisfaction and continued to devote herself to the "brick-moving business".
Soon, she installed twenty of them and surrounded a small circle of the base. But the good times didn’t last long...
"Ugh... my back hurts..."
She sat down on the ground, looking at the more than a hundred modules on the ground, her eyes began to blur.
"No, I’m going to die... I’m really going to die at the construction site of my own base..." She wailed and threw herself into the pile of materials.
Suddenly, an idea flashed.
"By the way... I still have them!"
She jumped up with a flip, raised her right hand high, and a dark mist emerged from her feet.
"Shua——!"
Three dark figures silently jumped out of the shadows, cold and gloomy, with empty eyes. Murderous intent leaked out, as if they were going to carry out some assassination mission in the next second.
Liora’s eyes lit up, and just as she was about to say, "Come on and work," she was embarrassed by the aura of these three figures.
"Hey... don’t be so scary. I’m not asking you to kill anyone today."
The three shadows paused and tilted their heads at the same time, as if thinking, "Not to kill anyone? Then why are we out here?"
Liora scratched her head and smiled awkwardly, "This time... we’re here to help me move the wall."
The three shadows froze for a moment, and the air was quiet for two seconds.
——It’s like you’re asking a group of professional killers to move cement.
"Don’t look at me like that!" Liora raised her hands in surrender, "I really can’t move it by myself... you guys just treat it as... experiencing life?"
The three shadows were silent, and then they looked at each other, and the murderous aura dropped eight degrees in an instant, as if they had suddenly changed from "messengers of hell" to "architectural apprentices."
Liora quickly struck while the iron was hot and walked forward to demonstrate: "Look, just like this—bury half, press a button, and then—bang, the wall comes out."
After the demonstration, she clapped her hands, straightened her back, and asked, "Do you understand?"
The three shadows were stunned for a second and then nodded in a posture comparable to program synchronization, with stiff but neat movements.
The next second, they silently grabbed a module, flew into the sky silently, landed at the edge of the base, and began to lay the wall "click, click, click..."
Liora stood there, watching the three cold and tacit shadows flying and building the wall, the speed and efficiency were more than one level higher than hers.
The wall stretched smoothly around the base like a protective ribbon, and the sight filled her with an odd sense of comfort. Who would have thought that the cold, silent death shadows she summoned would be such excellent construction workers?
For the first time, they didn’t drip with bloodlust or stalk prey from behind trees—they were just... stacking walls. She sniffed and nodded to herself with satisfaction.
It felt good not to be alone in the mess, and even better that she didn’t have to break her back anymore. "Not bad," she mumbled with a small smile, "not bad at all."
But just as she turned around, thinking she’d have time to relax, the three shadows appeared in front of her again—silent, still, and standing tall like they were waiting for their next mission.
Her jaw dropped. "What the—you’re done already?" she blurted out, blinking at them in disbelief. They all nodded at the same time, like emotionless puppets programmed to confirm.
Liora clutched her chest and groaned. "You guys finished in under five minutes? If I had known you were this useful, why did I nearly work myself to death?!"
