Extreme Cold Apocalypse: My Shelter is Full of Beautiful Women

Chapter 25: Tricking Others into Paying to Build Their Own Structures

She noticed that her ice pick range was decreasing and the freezing speed was slowing down.

The drain on her abilities was greater than she had anticipated.

In front of Building 9, Zhao Tianchen was the most flamboyant.

His "Corruptor" ability was an almost one-sided massacre against the snow wolves.

With a wave of his hand, a cloud of black mist surged from his palm, enveloping the charging snow wolves.

Before the wolves could even scream, their flesh began to rot, fall off, and turn into pus.

In just a few seconds, several living snow wolves turned into a pool of black water that seeped into the snow and corroded a large, steaming pit.

A cruel smile played on Zhao Tianchen's face.

But he was not at ease.

Each time he uses his ability, the festering sore on his palm expands by a ring.

He could already feel the corrosion spreading from his palm to his wrist.

Moreover, he had been observing.

Observe the battles of other posters and their abilities.

More importantly, he was observing Ye Yan.

That brat who killed his brother!!!

I originally thought that the guy who had just awakened his sequence pathway would be at a loss when facing these snow wolves.

However, what they saw before them took the posters by surprise.

All that could be seen were the snow wolves trying to approach Building 4.

Before it could even get within ten meters, it was pinned to the ground in the snow by an oncoming rocket.

One.

Both ends.

Five heads.

Ten heads.

The crossbows on the arrow tower spun rapidly, and rockets rained down like a storm, each one piercing the head or heart of a snow wolf with pinpoint accuracy.

Without waste or deviation, it operates tirelessly like a precise killing machine.

The snow wolves at the forefront didn't even have time to let out their first howl before they all fell into pools of blood.

Liu the Blind's hand froze in mid-air.

His shadow tentacles had just pierced through two snow wolves, and he was about to turn to the third when he saw that the third wolf had already been riddled with holes by the rockets from Building 4.

"this----"

His single eye narrowed, staring intently at the dark red arrow tower.

"This rate of fire—is it twice as fast as before?"

He had just noticed the arrow towers of Building 4, but the wolf pack hadn't rushed close yet, so he could only see a rough outline.

At this moment, when the snow wolves truly began their assault on Building 4, the true power of the arrow tower was revealed.

One arrow, one head.

with no exceptions.

"What the hell is this thing?" Liu the Blind muttered to himself, a hint of fear in his voice for the first time.

Jiang Yu's icicle stopped at her fingertips; she forgot to fire it.

Her pupils contracted slightly as she looked at the area in front of the four buildings covered by rockets.

Zhao Tianchen's expression was the most unpleasant.

His right hand was no longer usable, and the corrosive effect on his left hand was also decreasing.

He had just killed a wolf and was about to catch his breath when he caught a glimpse of Building 4 out of the corner of his eye.

Ye Yan didn't even raise his hand, and the arrow tower drove back the wolf pack on its own.

"Oh shit----"

Zhao Tianchen gritted his teeth and squeezed out a curse word from deep in his throat.

The four people standing downstairs in Building 4 were completely stunned.

The fat man squatted in the snow, his jaw almost dropping, his eyes wide like saucers.

He looked at the snow wolf that had been pierced by a rocket halfway through its charge, then at the arrow tower that was still spewing flames. His lips trembled several times before he managed to squeeze out a sentence: "This—this tower is too powerful—"

Shen Xinyi did not speak.

But her eyes remained fixed on the arrow tower.

She was studying architectural design, and although she hadn't graduated yet, she still had basic common sense. The structure, materials, and craftsmanship of this tower didn't seem like something a human could build.

Especially in such extreme circumstances, within such a short period of time.

"This tower is not something an ordinary person could build," she said softly, her voice filled with an indescribable awe.

. .

"It's not obvious."

The tall, thin boy swallowed hard, his voice trembling: "That guy named Ye Yan is the Awakened One boss."

"kindness"

Shen Xinyi nodded.

"And it's a very strong one."

The fat man gasped, "Holy crap—how ​​powerful must someone be to create something like that?"

"Where do you think the person who built the tower is now? Is he watching us from upstairs?"

"They're definitely upstairs. It's so cold outside, who would come down?" the tall, thin man said matter-of-factly.

"Then—what does he look like? How old is he? Is he male or female?"

"How should I know!"

Shen Xinyi rolled her eyes at the fat man, but she couldn't help but mentally sketch his image.

The person who could build such a tower must be a very capable person, right?

Perhaps he is a middle-aged man, calm, composed, and experienced;

Perhaps he is a retired soldier who understands tactics and defensive fortifications;

Perhaps he's an engineer, skilled in architecture and mechanics.

In short, he must be someone people look up to.

"Whoever he is," Shen Xinyi took a deep breath, "they're the ones who saved us."

The fat man nodded vigorously, expressing his deep agreement.

Only Ah-Jie stood silently to the side, not saying a word.

His gaze shifted from the arrow tower to Ye Yan.

The man was standing next to the arrow tower, his hands in his trench coat pockets, his expression as indifferent as if he were admiring the scenery.

Two women were on either side of him, like two cats that had found a warm stove.

Ah Jie frowned.

Why?

Why is this guy surnamed Ye able to stand in that position?

That arrow tower was clearly killing people, shedding blood, and doing everything it could to protect Building 4, yet this person didn't even lift a finger.

What gives him the right to stand there?

Why should he let Teacher Qi hold his hand?

On what grounds————

"Ah Jie, what are you thinking about?"

The fat man noticed that Ah Jie's expression was off, so he waved his hand in front of Ah Jie's eyes.

"It's nothing."

Ah Jie withdrew his gaze, his tone stiff.

Le Wuyou covered her mouth, her shoulders trembling.

. . .

She was secretly laughing.

She had been secretly laughing ever since the group of four started discussing "who built the tower".

"What are you laughing at?" Ye Yan looked down at her.

"Nothing, nothing—" Le Wuyou hurriedly waved his hand, but he couldn't suppress the smile on his face.

She stole a glance at the group of four, then at Ye Yan, and finally couldn't resist leaning close to his ear and whispering, "They don't know that you're the one who built the tower!"

"and then?"

"Then?"

Le Wuyou's eyes widened, his face showing an expression that said, "You don't even understand."

"Don't you think it's hilarious? They're right in front of you, guessing what that mysterious powerful person looks like, how old he is, what his background is, and then that person turns out to be right next to them."

At this point, Le Wuyou couldn't help but laugh again, laughing so hard he bent over.

Ye Yan glanced at her expressionlessly: "You have a really low threshold for laughter."

"It's not that I have a low threshold for laughter, it's just that this is really funny!"

Ye Yan didn't bother to comment on this.

However, if there are too many wolves, one arrow tower might not be able to withstand the attack.

But that's not a problem.

Ye Yan's gaze fell on the flint that had fallen from the dead snow wolves on the ground.

The flints that were previously lacking will be plentiful tonight.

That's enough to build several more arrow towers.

You can even build other structures!

However, what Ye Yan was thinking about was...

It would be even better if I could trick people into paying to build my own sequence of creations.

after all.

Ye Yan's gaze fell on the snow wolf corpses killed by the other landlords.

This is to protect them!

Although he has absolute control over his creations.

"roar!"

However, at that moment, the number of wolves suddenly increased not far away.

This made the already difficult task for the original posters turn pale.

"Damn it, what's wrong with me today!"
