[Tree Hole Shelter (Level Five) Upgrade Requirents: Stone 100,000, Iron Ore 10,000, Orichalcum Ore 1,000, Silver Ore 1,000, Gold Ore 100, Obsidian 10,000, Magic Crystals 100, D-rank Monster Crystal Core 100]
Tsk, tsk.
This wasn't a matter of how many tis the cost had multiplied anymore. Instead, the primary requirent had directly shifted from wood to stone, and it even required an abundance of ores.
She had no idea what her shelter would look like after upgrading to Level Five either.
Lan Qingyou just sat there quietly, watching the thick white smoke billowing from the locations of the herb fields and workshop.
It was as if there were genuinely a construction team working inside.
[Ding! Congratulations to the individual nad 'Lan Qingyou' in District 666's Abandoned Forest for being the first to upgrade a Level Four shelter. You have received one self-selected reward. Please keep up the good work.]
The voice of the world's will transmitted right as the thick smoke dissipated. Being familiar with the ropes, Lan Qingyou casually selected a book related to golems that could reduce energy consumption, titled Basic Magic Resource Recycling. Following that, she flew up to the third floor.
After inspecting it for a bit, she flew to the fourth floor. Finally, in a corner of the fourth floor, she discovered the mana core of the opposite-facing magic shield.
[Level Four Magic Shield Core (C-)]
[Energy: 40000/40000]
[Function: A shield with a 30-ter radius capable of resisting S-rank magical attacks. However, you must constantly inject mana to ensure the shield's energy is not depleted to zero, allowing it to block attacks aid at you.]
[Introduction: A protective shield developed by a group of fanatics to combat the mana tide. It consus mana exhaustively.]
Just as expected, the core's energy increased alongside the shelter's level.
Even though Level Four was only a C-, this wasn't important.
This was because the true core of the core was energy; its level was rely secondary.
Previously, she had hypothesized that the core would at least be an A-rank. Now that a minus sign had appeared, this proved that the shelter's upgrades would go up to at least level nine, or perhaps even level ten.
When that ti ca, a hundred thousand energy points would last for at least over a day. This way, she wouldn't have to wake up every few hours just to add energy to the shield like she did back at Level Three.
Or rather, it could be said that the group of fanatics who researched this protective shield needed to achieve this degree precisely for the sake of combating the mana tide.
Since it was all for the sake of resistance, it was impossible for them to guard the core day and night just to add energy.
Hm!?
Fanatics?
Seeing this word, Lan Qingyou couldn't help but associate it with The High Priestess, that little girl who was younger than her.
Could it be that she had also earned the title 'Fanatic' because she created sothing incredible?
Forget it, she wouldn't think about her anymore. After all, who didn't have a few trump cards up their sleeves?
Upon returning to the first floor, Lan Qingyou found that the 'construction' of the first-floor facilities had already been completed.
The Elental Herb Field was clearly demarcated.
Fire-attribute, water-attribute, earth-attribute, wood-attribute, and spirit-attribute—each attribute had its own small designated area.
The irrigation canals acting as the watering system were also distributed logically. Because it was flowing water, she could even hear the sound of the current from ti to ti.
It gave off the cozy feeling of being situated next to a stream.
Compared to the one she had hastily cobbled together previously, she didn't know how many levels higher this one was.
If Lan Qingyou were to describe it, she probably only had the words '666' left to say.
Or perhaps she would sigh and exclaim, 'Wonderful!'
After all, the world's will had managed to imbue this tiny herb field with the ambiance of a southern water town.
That's right.
In Lan Qingyou's eyes, this shelter was entirely a physical manifestation of the world's will exerting its function within.
And what made Lan Qingyou feel even more incredulous was that the water in this canal actually flowed out from the storage room.
Lan Qingyou imdiately headed over to the expanded storage room to take a look, discovering that all this water was channeled in from the alchemy workshop's water tank.
After making a round in the storage room, it flowed toward the herb fields. Then, it flowed out from the first-floor herb field through an opening on the massive tree, turning into a tiny waterfall cascading down the giant tree.
How should she put it...
It just felt like everything was originally ant to be laid out like this. Extrely logical and natural.
Originally, Lan Qingyou was unwilling, and even resistant, to having this sort of waterfall that might expose her location.
However, after seeing this natural layout, for so unknown reason, she was actually able to accept it.
This was probably a trick played on her senses by the 'delightful to the eyes' feeling that ca after the comfort of her living environnt received a massive boost.
Lan Qingyou shook her head and stretched lightly to mark the end of a day's work. After taking a shower, she brought Steel Wool up to the third floor.
Lying in bed, she originally wanted to read the papers written by those talented individuals. However, on second thought, she hadn't even fully figured out the functions on the card yet, so she decided to look at these functions first to get an understanding of them.
If she had known there was a forum earlier and read those papers, she wouldn't have made a fool of herself.
It wasn't a complaint; she rely felt there was still a huge gap between herself and these professionals.
She was clearly aware of this point herself.
After all, back on Blue Star, she was just a junior high graduate who then lay on a hospital bed for five years, having learned absolutely nothing.
Compared to them, she was inherently lacking. This was a point she had to admit, and adjusting her ntality to humbly seek instruction was what she needed to do.
This was exactly why, even though that Samayel played mind gas with her, she still had to make him teach her.
Lying on her bed, Lan Qingyou slid her finger across the left side of the card.
[Card Positioning], as the na implied, was for positioning the location of this card of hers.
This was used in conjunction with another function, [Radar Scan].
Although she had no idea what the underlying chanism of this scan was, upon tapping it, Lan Qingyou saw two green dots and four scattered red dots appear on the card.
The two green dots were her card and Helles's card respectively, and they even had 'The Tower' and 'The Fool' annotated on them.
Barring any surprises, the red dots should be monsters wandering in the vicinity.
Judging by the range of this radar scan, Lan Qingyou estimated it to cover at least a thousand ters.
It was a very practical function.
However, apart from these two colors, there were no others. But that was normal, considering there were fundantally no other shelters present around Lan Qingyou, or rather, this tree hole shelter.
[Material Transmission] and [Material Storage] went without saying.
After all, Lan Qingyou had already tried them out previously.
However, Lan Qingyou did have so calculations regarding [Material Storage].
This was the inspiration Helles had given her earlier.
Although the maximum stacking limit was 99, if she were to fill everything with stones or explosion potions... the bombing efficiency of this bomber of hers would directly soar in a straight line.
She wouldn't even need to take one out and throw it one by one like before; she could just directly manipulate the card and pour them down.
It was simply the number one choice for ho travel, murder, and robbery.
There wasn't much to say about [Forum] either; she would slowly read through it later.
What caught her attention were the three functions down below.
[Monster Encyclopedia] and [Plant Encyclopedia].
Both of these functions served as records. Lan Qingyou saw monsters and plants on them that she had never encountered before.
And without exception, every single one of these illustrated handbook entries had been uploaded by everyone using the cara function on the card.
