Chapter 82: Chapter 82: Major Earthquake, the Arrival of the Second Disaster!The sky darkens.

    Lin Yue hurriedly worked on the shelter in his heart that could withstand an eighth-level earthquake and also fend off the frantic mutated creatures at night.

    "Bai, stay alert, let me know immediately if there’s any danger!"

    "Puchi!" Even if Lin Yue didn’t say it, Bai would do this task it had been doing consistently.

    Lin Yue glanced at the stone gate of the perimeter wall, which was already tightly closed. Ordinary mutated creatures would not be able to breach this barrier.

    During the night, the remaining threats for him came from those unseen mutated birds and flying creatures, as well as the endless insects.

    The wall in front of him in the "" shape was not the final shape of the shelter he planned.

    An equilateral triangle was.

    A triangle is the most stable and solid shape that most people can imagine. It was naturally Lin Yue’s first choice for earthquake resistance.

    After setting up the tent, Lin Yue connected the third stone wall with the other two, completely enclosing the tent.

    Lin Yue inspected from outside and found that the three six-meter-long walls were perfectly connected without even a gap.

    Next, Lin Yue quickly embedded Iron Blocks into the stone walls, modeled on the method of a shelter.

    This could also make the walls more solid.

    Having done all this, Lin Yue climbed the ladder with Bai in his arms and went up the wall.

    After using pliers to create a square hole in the net laid on the wall that he could enter, he covered the entire net, except the hole, with wooden boards.

    After confirming the stability, Lin Yue covered and combined the top of the triangular enclosure piece by piece.

    With only one piece left, Lin Yue descended halfway down the ladder, entered inside the walls, and laid the last stone wall.

    The iron net and wooden boards were pressed down by the stone walls, but there were still some tiny gaps that served as ventilation passages, preventing Lin Yue and Bai inside from suffocating.

    After lighting a lighter, Lin Yue slowly stepped down the ladder, then lit a torch and placed it in a corner away from the tent.

    He looked up at the three-meter-high ceiling and the tightly packed sturdy walls around him, nodding with satisfaction.

    This should be enough to withstand an eighth-level earthquake and the crazy mutated creatures outside.

    Although... it kind of resembles a Stone Coffin.

    "Puchi?" Bai didn’t understand why the master didn’t stay in the original comfortable shelter but built something like this instead. In this narrow space, it couldn’t stretch its limbs comfortably.

    However, it seemed quite comfortable inside the tent.

    "Bai, we still need to wait a bit,"

    Lin Yue opened the system panel and checked the time.

    There were still a full four hours until the arrival of the second disaster - an earthquake ranging from level 1 to 8.

    He still had quite a few things to do.

    For instance... opening treasure chests!

    Opening treasure chests might be tiring, but it brought Lin Yue some joy.

    Especially when there were many chests to open, or when the quality of the chests was high.

    In his hand, there were 131 unopened Wooden Treasure Chests and 3 Silver Treasure Chests.

    As per the old rule, open the wooden ones first.

    [You obtained Hot Dew Mineral Water 600mlX1]

    [You obtained Hey Elephant Spicy Noodles a bag]

    [You obtained Tianjin Scallion Pancake a bag]

    [You obtained ... ]

    Wow, something new came out!

    Aside from the usual water, instant noodles, bread, and dried noodles, Lin Yue was unexpectedly finding scallion pancakes!

    bottles of water, 17 pieces of bread, 23 bags of instant noodles, 7 bags of dried noodles, and 6 bags of scallion pancakes!

    Scallion pancakes... it seems like I haven’t had them in a long time.

    For the arrival of something new, Lin Yue was quite welcoming, especially when it’s something delicious.

    Scallion pancakes can be made into more than just pancakes; if there are enough ingredients, Lin Yue could even bake an egg tart for himself.

    After placing all the items he obtained into the Storage Space, Lin Yue turned his eyes to the three Silver Treasure Chests.

    These were the good items left behind by the lucky viewers when he was experimenting with the electric Steel Repeating Crossbow at that time.

    [You obtained Mini Solar Charging Kit X1]

    [You obtained Regional Map X2, Kitchenware Set X1]

    [You obtained Thermal Emergency Blanket X1, Folding Bicycle X1]

    Oh wow?

    The things obtained this time are nice!

    Isn’t the solar charging kit better than the oil generator?

    It only needs sunlight to generate current to power some simple non-consuming devices!

    Lin Yue thought that after the earthquake, he could possibly make a major renovation to the shelter.

    After using the regional map, Lin Yue surprisingly found that the areas shown on these two maps were right next to his shelter, and one of them was even connected to the shelter where there were people before.

    Lin Yue also found that there were no signs of people on these two maps, but the shelters were still there, perhaps worth exploring thoroughly.

    The tasks to do are one after another.

    The premise is to safely survive this disaster.

    As for the kitchenware set, thermal emergency blanket, and folding bicycle, Lin Yue didn’t take them out to look at them in detail for now, just tossed them into the Storage Space directly.

    He glanced at Bai beside him, and this little creature seemed to sense something too, becoming restless, always wanting to get out of this cramped space.

    Lin Yue pulled it to his side: "Bai, don’t worry, we’ll be fine."

    Bai, perhaps understanding, became much calmer.

    Man and pet entered the tent, then Lin Yue checked the surroundings to ensure the tent wouldn’t easily collapse before feeling relieved.

    According to the forecast, there were still over two hours before the disaster would start, but in this dark night, Lin Yue had been hearing all kinds of strange noises since just now.

    Flapping wings, sharp piercing screeches, weird unpleasant noises, continuously coming from outside.

    This was fundamentally different from the previous nights.

    The noise was never this loud before...

    Lin Yue looked at the numbers in the upper right corner of the group’s interface.

    7751, 7541, 7121... it was plummeting rapidly.

    Lin Yue shook his head, took out the toolbox, and removed a piece of liquid crystal display obtained from the Secret Realm with a screwdriver.

    Every disaster brought death.

    But what remains after each disaster are survivors who are smarter, stronger, and better adapted to this world.

    Survival of the fittest.

    The system aims to cultivate these elites who can survive various disasters.

    [You obtained Liquid Crystal Display (damaged) X1]

    After successfully dismantling the broken monitor, Lin Yue checked the remaining parts, which still seemed quite well preserved.

    After continuously dismantling some monitors, time slowly passed.

    Unlike usual, Bai, until now, hadn’t laid down obediently, as if it sensed this time the impending disaster was entirely different from the last.

    Rubbing his sore eyes, Lin Yue looked at the countdown.

    Eight minutes left.

    Lin Yue conducted another check.

    The Steel Repeating Crossbow and Iron Spear were right beside him.

    He donned the wooden armor, equipped the wooden shield, and also wore a helmet he barely used.

    In case this "Stone Coffin" couldn’t withstand the earthquake’s tremor and collapsed, he would escape from there as fast as possible!

    "Bai, stick with me." Sear?h the N??eFire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

    Lin Yue brought Bai to the outside wall of the tent.

    He was awaiting the impending disaster!

    Soon after, the system’s warnings came two minutes before the countdown ended!

    [Warning, second disaster, earthquake is imminent! Warning, second disaster, earthquake is imminent!]

    [This disaster will last for 10 minutes!]

    [The earthquake’s intensity will get stronger as time passes!]

    [All Secret Realms will be closing simultaneously, and those inside will be forcibly ejected! Refresh after the disaster ends!]

    [More system functions will be available after this disaster!]

    [Wishing everyone to get through the hardship!]

    [The next disaster forecast will be sent out in 72 hours!]

    The disaster was coming!

    Five, four, three, two, one!

    The earth started to shake slightly, then became increasingly stronger!

    The rumbling sound of the quake echoed from all directions!

    ...
