I'm building Sun City in the eternal night!

Chapter 10 Level 2 Animal Trap!

The blond-haired youth stared at Chen Hui with unusual delight, as if he were looking at some treasure.

Chen Hui looked at the hammer mark dented on the chassis of the [Strange Fire] and felt a pang of heartache.

This cost him 3 [Strange Stones] to build! If it gets destroyed, he won't even have a place to stay tonight and will have to fight monsters hand-to-hand!

He stared at the blond-haired man with an extremely unfriendly expression and said:

"So, you were the one who stole our supplies and destroyed the site's firework?"

The blond-haired youth slung the giant hammer over his shoulder and said with a mocking expression:

"So what if I'm the boss? If I don't teach you greenhorns a lesson, do you think you'll obediently pay your protection money?"

Seeing that the other party admitted it, Chen Hui nodded and said:

"You've already found a way to die, so it seems I don't need to hold back anymore."

After saying that, he threw the animal trap hanging from his waist in front of the blond-haired youth:

"Come on, blondie, the one who lives will have everything the other has."

The blond-haired man stared wide-eyed at the unremarkable iron animal trap, then laughed in exasperation.

"Hahaha, kid, are you kidding me? You think you can mess with me using the cheapest bear trap?"

"Looks like you're not only an F-rank professional, but your brain is F-rank too!"

He could tell at a glance that the other party's [beast trap] was a low-level, basic one, and the other party was just an F-level architect.

He was a D-rank [Heavy Hammer Warrior], and with his physique, such a bear trap couldn't break through his defenses at all.

He raised his foot and kicked the bear trap on the ground, intending to pounce on Chen Hui and pin the greenhorn down.

But then a "thud!" sound came from underfoot, and an unbearable pain suddenly shot through my ankle.

"Ah~!!"

Yellow Hair screamed and fell to the ground. He looked at his feet and saw that they were caught tightly in the seemingly ordinary animal trap.

And the clamps tightened more and more, making him feel like his bones were about to break.

Even more terrifying, the animal trap emitted extremely high temperatures, scorching his ankle, and in just a moment, he could smell something burning.

The blond-haired man instantly realized that he had fallen into the other party's trap; the animal trap was not something the other party had made themselves.

Instead, it was purchased at a high price from other senior architects! It's at least as powerful as a bear trap set by a B-level architect!

The other party was plotting against him from the very beginning!

He was careless and fell for the trap!

He was a ruthless man; enduring the excruciating pain, he roared and hurled the giant hammer in his hand, smashing it down on Chen Hui's head.

The other party is just an F-level architect, physically weak and not much different from an ordinary person. If this hammer hits, it will definitely smash the other party's head into a rotten watermelon!

A cruel smile crept across the blond-haired man's lips, as if he could already see the other man's head exploding.

Chen Hui simply smiled, casually raised his hand, and easily caught the flying giant hammer, holding it firmly in his palm. He grinned and said:

"This hammer must weigh over a hundred pounds. I should be able to get some supplies in return. I'll take it."

The blond-haired man stared blankly for a long while, even briefly forgetting his pain, and pointed at Chen Hui, shouting:

"You...you...how could you possibly have such a strong physique?!"

To catch his heavy hammer with one hand, one would need to be at least a D-rank or even C-rank [Warrior] or [Giant] class, otherwise, one would surely suffer broken bones and tendons.

The opponent is just a mere F-rank [Architect], how could he be so strong!

Seeing the other person grinning maliciously as they approached him, he realized his predicament and quickly shouted:

"Don't come any closer! I work for Brother Tie, and he's a full member of the War God Society. If you dare touch me, he'll make you pay!"

Chen Hui said nonchalantly:

"I've already made a move, your 'Iron Brother' definitely won't let me off the hook, so what am I afraid of?"

Seeing Chen Hui approaching with a wide grin, revealing his white teeth, the blond-haired man finally panicked and quickly advised:

"That might not be the case, though? If you let me go, I'll plead with Brother Tie, and maybe he'll let you off the hook..."

Chen Hui raised his fist and punched the blond-haired man in the stomach with a loud "thump!", making him curl up like a red-hot shrimp.

"I don't like others pleading for me, nor do I like others letting me off the hook."

After saying that, he groped the other person's body for a while.

He pulled out a green [mysterious stone] and two ordinary white [mysterious stones].

"Hahaha," Chen Hui chuckled, stroking the strange green stone with obvious satisfaction.

【Strange Stones】also vary in quality.

It is divided into four levels: white, green, blue, and yellow.

A green [mysterious stone] is equivalent to 10 ordinary white mysterious stones.

He earned 12 strange stones in one go.

That's more than he earned working these two nights.

Indeed, murder and arson bring wealth and power!

As Chen Hui tallied his spoils, Huang Mao seemed to be enduring extreme pain.

His entire body began to turn yellow and charred, and cracks spread upwards from his ankles to his waist.

His clothes were charred and curled.

His mind seemed to be clouded, and he was making incoherent babbling sounds.

"It hurts...it hurts so much...kill me...kill me..."

Looking at the yellow-haired man's miserable state, Chen Hui said:

Say thank you.

"Thanks..." Huang Mao had just finished saying thank you when Chen Hui raised the giant hammer and smashed Huang Mao's head with a "thud!"

As Chen Hui watched the yellow-haired man's corpse burn to ashes, he realized why he hadn't seen the strange corpse before—it had all been burned to ashes.

This light-attribute attack is truly powerful.

Pick up the bear trap from the ground; a message appears on the trap:

【Beast Trap (lv1): Upgradeable to lv2, which becomes 【Tracking Beast Trap】. It can automatically track strange and hostile enemies within a 10-meter range. Cooldown time is 12 hours. Crafting requires 5 Strange Stones.】

Huh? It's time to upgrade?

Automatic tracking? That's quite an impressive capability.

This way, the chances of capturing something strange will be greater.

Furthermore, the cooldown time has been reduced from 24 hours to 12 hours, a reduction of half.

Not bad!

In this way, it can be used to capture eerie creatures at night, and placed at the site during the day to prevent troublemakers like those who came today!

"Upgrade! Upgrade two!" Chen Hui shouted without hesitation.

The green, strange stone disappeared, and the two animal traps in his hand and at his waist quickly turned into golden phantoms before solidifying.

Two more intricately constructed animal traps, gleaming with a brighter metallic sheen, appeared before my eyes.

Chen Hui checked the information.

【Bear Trap (lv2): Automatically tracks suspicious and hostile enemies within a 10-meter range. Cooldown time: 12 hours.】

After cleaning up the remaining traces of the body, I looked at the sky.

After leaving the station, he threw all the animal traps nearby before dark. When he returned, he saw Feng Ning'er sitting in front of the campfire, already waiting for him.
