I'm building Sun City in the eternal night!

"What if I could create it in one minute?"

Chen Hui said calmly.

"Impossible! Who do you think you are? Even if you were an A-level student in the elite class, an architect with exceptional forging speed, you couldn't possibly be that fast!"

"Besides, you don't have any other basic materials, so how can you forge it?"

Although Feng Ning'er is not an architect, there are several in her family, and they are all senior architects.

She had never heard of anyone who could create a ball of [Strange Fire] in one minute, not even the most basic level 1 [Strange Fire].

Chen Hui's tone is far too arrogant.

Chen Hui chuckled, unwilling to explain anything, and simply reached out to ask for it:

"Whether it is or not, you'll find out by trying. Do you think I'd keep your strange stone for myself?"

As night approached, Feng Ning'er's fear intensified, her pupils trembled, and even her fair face turned pale.

Not wanting to waste any more words with the other party, he quickly took out the strange stones from his backpack, and with a wave of his hand, the three strange stones landed neatly in front of Chen Hui.

Then, he began to concentrate his mental energy, preparing to ignite the torch.

Chen Hui looked at the three strange stones, grinned, and then opened the Lord panel, looking at the [Strange Fire] section.

【Strange Fire】: Level 1, illuminates an area with a diameter of 10 meters, emitting the radiance of sunlight, which can dispel darkness, eliminate fear, enhance courage, and deter low-level strange creatures. Requires 3 Strange Stones to create.

[Should we build it?]

Chen Hui silently said "yes".

The three strange stones instantly became illusory, then transformed into thin golden lines, outlining the shape of a ball of [Strange Fire] to Feng Ning'er's astonished expression, before quickly solidifying.

In the blink of an eye, a brand new [Strange Fire] appeared at the site.

The brand-new bluestone base had a groove in the center, but there was no strange stone in the groove, so it was not lit.

With a "thud," the torch in Feng Ning'er's hand fell to the ground, and she stared blankly at the newly built "Strange Fire."

"You...you said one minute?"

Feng Ning'er stared in shock at the [Strange Fire], completely unable to believe what she was seeing.

The opponent actually created a [Strange Fire] in the blink of an eye, which is simply unheard of.

Even a city lord would find it difficult to achieve such a construction speed.

And this was actually designed by an F-level architect!

Is this just a smokescreen?

Just then, Chen Hui made a "please" gesture again.

Feng Ning'er understood what the other party meant, but she had no time to argue with Chen Hui at this moment. She quickly took out a strange stone and embedded it into the base of the [Strange Fire].

The moment the strange stone was embedded into the chassis.

A dazzling, miniature sun rose from the center of the chassis.

Then, with a "boom!", it transformed into a blinding flame, illuminating an area with a diameter of 10 meters. From a distance, it looked like a golden eggshell upside down on the wasteland.

Feng Ning'er's face was bathed in golden light, and her whole body seemed to be immersed in an ocean of light, feeling warm and cozy. Her fear of the darkness was completely dispelled.

She even felt a surge of pleasure and wanted to moan, but ultimately held back, only looking at Chen Hui with an incredulous expression:

"Your...your eerie fire feels different...so...so comfortable..."

It's not that she's unsophisticated.

The Feng family is a prominent family in the city, and the entire family is shrouded in a high-level, eerie fire created by the family's powerful architects.

Although the area was vast, she had never felt so warm inside before, and she found herself unconsciously becoming somewhat captivated by it.

"Basic skills, don't be silly... Don't ask why, it's just a matter of practice."

After saying that, Chen Hui took out a dry biscuit and a bottle of water from his backpack and handed them over, saying:

"It's getting dark, Miss Wind, have something to eat first. You'll have to fight later if you're full."

After saying that, he began to make the [beast trap] right in front of Feng Ning'er.

He has 8 Ghost Stones left. A bear trap costs 2 Ghost Stones, so he can make 4.

In the blink of an eye, four animal traps were formed.

Feng Ning'er watched, still somewhat shocked, but after witnessing the other party create the [Strange Fire], she was no longer so flustered.

He just kept eating his pancakes, glancing occasionally at the [Strange Fire] and the [Beast Trap], without saying a word.

The ability to construct buildings in the blink of an eye, even the lowest-level [Strange Fire] and [Beast Trap], is something that an F-rank [Architect] could never achieve.

But she didn't intend to ask anything.

This world is dangerous. In the struggle for resources, there are often life-or-death battles among professionals. No one wants to expose their secrets or trump cards.

She didn't have a deep relationship with the other party, so she didn't ask questions she shouldn't, lest she provoke their hostility.

After this incident, she realized that this seemingly ordinary boy from the outer city was not as simple as he appeared.

Fortunately, she is now in a cooperative relationship with the other party, and the stronger the other party is, the more willing she will be.

She ate her pancake, and Chen Hui just watched her with a smile.

She returned the look with the same gaze, but remained silent.

After she finished eating the pancakes and drinking her water, Chen Hui handed her the five animal traps, saying:

"I'll have to trouble Miss Ning'er to place these animal traps outside for me."

"Place them separately, just keep them a distance apart."

Although he possesses a pure yang physique and is not afraid of the dark, he can set animal traps himself without any problem.

But not being afraid of the dark doesn't mean he's not afraid of monsters in the night. Besides, he doesn't have superhuman eyesight and can't see things in the dark.

Now that it was dark, he naturally didn't want to put it away himself.

Feng Ning'er accepted it expressionlessly.

He who takes a bribe is bound to do his bidding; he who eats another's food is obligated to do his bidding.

However, she was somewhat dismissive of these animal traps.

This kid is really delusional.

Are you trying to kill monsters by setting up a few level 1 bear traps?

Let alone an F-rank architect like him, even a C-rank or B-rank architect's "beast trap" would at most cause serious injury to the monster.

Once the monster loses a limb, it will leave.

Trying to harvest the Strange Stone using a Bear Trap is nothing short of delusional.

If [Strange Stones] are so easy to make money from, why would she go out at night to fight to the death?

Although she disagreed with it, she did not refuse.

Without uttering a word, he lit the torch in his hand and, relying on the faint light, walked out of the station and disappeared into the darkness.

Although the night is long, she wants to kill as many monsters as possible and collect as many strange stones as possible before the rainy season arrives.

Once the rainy season arrives, it won't be her hunting down the supernatural anymore; instead, the supernatural will be attacking the station.

Chen Hui watched Feng Ning'er's figure disappear into the darkness, stretched, yawned, and then walked into the wooden house.

He wasn't worried about not finding his own animal trap.

The architect has a faint sense of the animal traps he created; as long as they don't exceed a certain range, he can find them when he goes out during the day.

As for going out to fight to the death late at night, that doesn't fit the [Architect's] fighting style.

Of course, the most crucial point is that he has no torches and no means to see clearly in the dark; going out would just be delivering food to the monsters.

He could only get a good night's sleep first and check the harvest tomorrow.

I hope that the "beast trap" I created with all my savings will not disappoint me.
