I build a shelter in the eternal night.

Chapter 32 Building Module Blueprints.

wilderness.

"Qiuhe Wangjia" Station No. 16.

Zhou Mo led his men through the torrential rain, following the coordinates on the cryptic map for a long time before finally arriving at the station.

A few lonely wooden houses stood in the torrential rain.

Outside the house was a field and a strange fire.

Apart from that, there were no other defensive structures.

Actually.

Almost all the stations on the wasteland have no fortified buildings.

After all, except during the rainy season, monsters almost never venture into the camp on their own. If such a low-probability event were to occur, it would often trigger a chain reaction, rendering the city's defensive structures meaningless.

"This guy is really lucky."

Zhou Mo stood outside the camp, pounding his thigh with a hammer to relieve the fatigue from the long journey. Looking at the rather simple camp in front of him, he couldn't help but sigh, "There are no fortifications at all, yet we managed to survive last night."

"It's only because I ran into the stationmaster, otherwise I definitely wouldn't have made it through the night."

"go in."

"Let's grab a bite to eat while we're at it, so we can keep heading back to camp later."

Their station went through a fierce battle last night and only survived thanks to divine intervention. This station doesn't even have walls; it survived purely by luck.

"Old Chen?"

"Old Chen!"

As Zhou Mo walked into the station, he shouted at the top of his lungs. His voice pierced the room through the heavy rain. Normally, it would be a big taboo to break into a camp like this, but he didn't care about that at the moment.

If I remember correctly, the site owner's name should be Lao Chen.

however.

But no one responded.

"Sleeping so soundly?"

Zhou Mo frowned slightly, walked to a wooden house, knocked a few times, then pushed the door open forcefully and called out loudly, "Old Chen, you..."

The sound stopped suddenly.

His right foot, which was about to step into the house, froze in mid-air.

After a long time.

He glanced at the two corpses hanging from the rafters like dried meat, and sighed softly with a complicated expression: "Looks like Old Chen, your luck wasn't so good either."

Two corpses hanging from the roof beams were swaying in the wind.

Obviously.

Last night, after the eternal night descended, Old Chen and his men, unable to withstand the pressure, chose to end their lives by hanging.

normal.

He can actually understand completely.

A camp without any defensive structures, during the long night of the rainy season, is like a lone tree in the depths of the sea. The raging storms and the endless terror beneath the waves bring an extreme sense of despair, a despair where there is no hope and no sunrise.

No one can withstand this kind of pressure.

The sea is beautiful.

Azure.

The deep sea at night is hardly beautiful; its pitch-black surface, like an eternal night, brings only despair and helplessness.

"."

After a long silence, Zhou Mo instructed his subordinates: "Go outside and see what kind of plants are growing in the fields. Move anything usable to the cart in the corner."

He then stepped forward, put the body down, and checked the pockets for any valuables.

They also took off the clothes and the rope along with them.

The eerie fire outside had become extremely dim, and with the stationmaster's death, it gradually went out, and it would be completely extinguished in no time.

There are less than two hours left before the eternal night descends again.

Chen Fan woke up, threw off the covers, put on his clothes that were still damp, washed himself quickly with the rainwater he had collected, stood at the wooden door and looked outside. He stretched and then turned to look at the stove inside the house.

Although there was a stove, it was still extremely damp and cold during the continuous rainy days.

He didn't sleep well last night; he was freezing.

The living conditions are a bit poor.

He was the only one inside; everyone else was busy outside.

Stepping outside the city walls, one sees a lame monkey busily burying the corpse of a strange creature in the farmland.

"Master."

The lame monkey noticed this and trotted over, excitedly saying, "They're growing well; they should be ripe by tomorrow."

"Ah."

Chen Fan glanced at the seedlings that had grown to half a meter tall in the farmland outside the city, smiled and nodded: "Keep going with your work."

According to the schedule, tomorrow will be the third day.

This is the time when these crops will mature.

The fresh, earthy scent of the rain sobered him up considerably. He looked at the three rare treasures in his arms, his spoils from the previous night. His next task was to further strengthen the camp to prepare for any potential crises that might arise tonight.

The first rare treasure.

It's a blueprint.

The architectural blueprints, resembling those of a "watchtower," were as thin as a cicada's wing.

just
The building on the blueprint was extremely rudimentary, consisting of only a vague outline of a copper pipe, resembling a sewer pipe, and showed no apparent use value.
-
"Name of the rare item": Sealed copper pipe.

"Rare Treasure Grade": White.

"Exotic Treasure Effect": This exotic treasure is a building module blueprint that can be adapted to all buildings.
-
"."

Chen Fan crushed the blueprint in his hand, and the Eternal Night Lord panel in his mind immediately showed a change. This time, it wasn't just adding a new buildable building, but directly adding a new section.
-
"Currently available buildings to be constructed."

"Strange fire, arrow tower, city wall, farmland, wooden house, sacrificial tower, sentry tower, animal trap."

"Currently, building modules can be constructed."

"Copper pipes."
-
The description of this building module blueprint is also quite concise.

"Copper Pipe": Compatible with all buildings, requiring 1 Mysterious Stone to build one meter.

Although I didn't quite understand what it meant.

But he was clear on one thing: practice reveals the truth.

Crush a strange stone, and a milky white liquid flows in the air. Then, a 1-meter-long copper tube phantom slowly floats in mid-air, its size adjustable, from as narrow as one centimeter to as wide as one meter.

He chose 10 centimeters.

The moment the phantom of the copper tube appeared.

All the buildings in the entire camp transformed into phantom images composed of white lines, just as they were when they were first built.

The ghostly fire, city walls, wooden houses, etc., all turned into phantom images of buildings.

But the lame monkey and the others did not react at all, clearly only he could notice this scene.

The scene before me is like...
Like
He narrowed his eyes slightly and guided the copper pipe closer to the eerie fire. When the two phantom buildings approached each other, they instantly merged and quickly solidified.

The entire camp was then restored to its original state.

The phantom image has vanished.

The ghost fire located in the middle of the camp has also changed. Originally, the base of the ghost fire was a campfire made of stones, and the flames were cold white.

But at this time.

A copper pipe seemed to be naturally embedded in the base of the eerie fire, blending into the base and placed on the ground. From another angle, one could vaguely see cold white flames flowing back and forth inside the copper pipe.

"."

Looking at the scene in front of me.

Chen Fan froze on the spot, a flicker of disbelief crossing his eyes. Could it be... could it be...?
There was no hesitation at all.

Another 20 Mysterious Stones were used to create a 20-meter-long copper pipe!

As the illusory copper pipes floated in the air, the buildings throughout the camp once again transformed into illusory images composed of white lines.
