I build a shelter in the eternal night.

Chapter 22 When soldiers come, generals will block them; when water comes, earth will dam it.

If these people can be successfully trained, then the camp's core team will have taken shape.

This late-night talk served to allow everyone to get to know each other better.

Another important objective.

It's about observing these people's character and abilities.

So far, things are going well; everyone has their own strengths.

As for him.
He is good at discovering what others are good at.

Just as everyone was getting into the conversation, the sound suddenly stopped, and the room became extremely quiet.

A feeling of unease instantly washed over everyone.

Chen Fan got up and walked to the entrance of the wooden house. He pushed open the door and looked at the darkness that was rapidly sweeping in from the horizon. He said softly, "They're here."

Without hesitation, he quickly took off his dry clothes, put on the wet linen clothes that were still drying by the door, picked up a spear from the weapon rack next to him, and walked into the heavy rain.

Even if they moved all the resources from other sites to the camp.

There weren't many clothes either.

Changing clothes before going out ensures you always have a dry set of clothes to wear indoors; otherwise, constantly wearing damp clothes can cause eczema all over your body.

The lame monkey was the first to react.

He quickly changed his clothes, grabbed the "Godslayer Spear" in his hand, and limped into the rainy night, closely following behind Chen Fan. There were too many people in the camp at the moment, and it seemed that everyone had submitted to the young master.

But you can't judge a book by its cover, and many things are unpredictable.

He had to stay by the young master's side at all times to prevent him from falling into any trouble.

The others quickly changed their clothes and rushed into the rainy night.

On the city wall.

Chen Fan and his group, armed with various weapons, stood behind the parapet, facing the torrential rain, looking out towards the outside of the camp.

As night fell, darkness completely enveloped the entire camp.

Above and all around was extremely deep darkness.

Only the glow emitted by the ghostly fire enveloped the entire camp like an eggshell.

These weapons were brought by other station chiefs when they defected. They are all ordinary weapons that can damage low-level monsters, but they are not very effective against high-level monsters.

Weapon-type magical artifacts, like the one wielded by the lame monkey, are quite effective against high-level monsters.

"Swish"

A series of rustling sounds echoed in the darkness outside the camp, like a swarm of insects passing by. They could not see through the darkness, but they could hear the sounds clearly.

Just hearing the sounds, the sheer number of them is enough to instill fear.

Zhou Mo subconsciously held his breath and gripped the knife handle tightly, afraid of making the slightest noise and attracting the strange creature in the darkness into the camp.

Sizzle.
A piercing and sharp sound suddenly rang out in the darkness, like fingernails repeatedly scraping against rusty iron sheets, sharp and shrill.

"."

Chen Fan frowned slightly and unconsciously tightened his grip on the spear. Tonight was very different from the previous nights. There hadn't been such a commotion in the past few nights. He had been somewhat confident, but now he didn't know if he could withstand it.

next moment--

A burst of laughter suddenly came from the darkness.

The sound was extremely loud.

There was no joy in the laughter, only a frenzied sense of revenge and the desire to destroy everything. The sound of pattering rain made a chill run down everyone's spine. Wang Kui's legs were trembling and his face was tearful.

Although they hadn't seen a single strange creature, the group was already under immense mental pressure.

Followed by.

The originally loud laughter, which had swept everything like a storm, instantly turned into an extremely low sob, which lingered in the ears. The crying was not loud, but it was heart-wrenching.

The laughter grew increasingly shrill, like countless ghostly laughs overlapping each other, surging into the camp like a tsunami. Just as everyone was nearing their psychological limit...

The laughter stopped abruptly.

Then dozens of strange creatures rushed into the camp from the darkness, baring their teeth and claws as they charged toward the city wall. They were humanoid creatures, extremely tall, more than 3 meters high, and as thin as bamboo poles.

Its arms are extremely long, almost reaching its ankles.

Sharp, extremely long fingers flashed with a ghastly white light.

A strange creature never seen before.

at the same time--

The two closest level 2 arrow towers on the city wall simultaneously turned their crossbows, aiming at the dozens of monsters rushing into the camp, accompanied by a sudden jolt from the crossbows at the top of the towers.

A crossbow bolt, nearly as thick as a baby's forearm, streaked through the rain like a black line, flying with the force of thunder and a sharp whistling sound.

"call out!

The crossbow bolt pierced the chest of the leading monster with pinning it straight to the ground. The bamboo-like monster twitched a few times before becoming still.

One after another, crossbow bolts shot out.

They quickly shot down all twenty-odd monsters. Only one monster rushed to the bottom of the city wall, but its powerful claw strike didn't even leave a white mark on the stone wall.

"call"

See this.

Chen Fan breathed a sigh of relief, his tense heart finally relaxing slightly. He took his hand out of his pocket, looked down at the more than twenty monster corpses in the camp, and laughed. He even saw an item emitting white light fall next to one of the monsters.

That's a rare treasure.

Finally, another rare item dropped.

After building all the traps and cabins during the day, there were still 3 strange stones left.

When Wang Kui went to the two abandoned sites, he brought back some living supplies, as well as 127 strange stones. These strange stones were originally everyone else's entire possessions, but with the sites being breached, they became ownerless.

He got all the benefits.

There are now 130 strange stones.

He did not use these 130 strange stones as an emergency resource immediately.

If there are too many monsters and two arrow towers can't handle them, he'll build a few more. If there are powerful monsters that are difficult for level 2 arrow towers to deal with, he'll use these monster stones to upgrade the arrow towers to level 3.

They have the flexibility to advance or retreat.

When soldiers come, we'll block them; when water comes, we'll dam it.

Only in this way can one be truly adept at handling things.

The farmland was on the left. These monsters ignored the farmland and therefore did not trigger the five "spiky" traps at the front of the farmland. The primary task tonight was to ensure the safety of the camp, and the secondary task was to ensure the safety of the farmland.

When all the monsters were killed by the arrow towers under the city wall.

The tension that had been gripping everyone's hearts finally eased, and they gradually became excited. The camp seemed...it seemed really safe!

"Webmaster!"

Wang Kui leaned excitedly against the wall, looking down at the corpses of the strange creatures below: "It seems that even if the number of strange creatures doubles, we can still hold them off."

He was originally going to address him as "Young Master," but Chen Fan told them to just call him "Station Master" instead, as "Young Master" wasn't appropriate.

So he changed his mind again.

"."

Chen Fan narrowed his eyes slightly as he looked into the depths of darkness. Although the city walls and arrow towers looked quite effective, he did not let his guard down. After all, he knew very well that this was just an appetizer.

Don’t say anything else.

At least that eerie laughter definitely didn't come from these bamboo-like monsters, which means that there is another powerful monster in the darkness watching the camp intently, ready to rush in at any moment.
